Brunello Cucinelli stock slips as market data and 2026 forecasts diverge
Published on 08/21/2026 at 15:58 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWS
Brunello Cucinelli stock (IT0004764699) fell to EUR 86.52 in the latest FTSE MIB session, down 0.92%, while the market still values the luxury group at a premium on 2026 expectations.
The latest market snapshot also shows a 1st Jan change of -3.16% and a P/E ratio of 38.2x, putting the shares in a stretched valuation band even after the recent slip.
Valuation stays rich
As of August 20, 2026, the most recent quote snapshot on MarketScreener showed EUR 86.62, with a 5-day change of -0.69% and an EV/Sales multiple of 4.41x.
That gap between a modest year-to-date decline and a high earnings multiple matters because it leaves little room for disappointment if growth slows even slightly.
Forecasts still point up
The same financial data page projects net sales of EUR 1.552 billion for fiscal 2026, up from EUR 1.408 billion in fiscal 2025, with EBITDA rising to EUR 463 million from EUR 416.5 million.
It also points to EBIT of EUR 264.3 million in fiscal 2026, compared with EUR 235.9 million in fiscal 2025, and net income of EUR 154.3 million versus EUR 135 million.
For investors, the key comparison is concrete: sales are forecast to rise 10.26% in fiscal 2026, while EBIT is expected to advance 12.03%.
What the numbers imply
On a half-year basis, the same data set shows net sales of EUR 749.4 million for 2026 S1, up 3.54% from EUR 723.8 million in 2025 S1, with EBIT at EUR 128.2 million versus EUR 122.1 million a year earlier.
That mix suggests steady but not explosive growth, which helps explain why the stock continues to trade at a valuation premium instead of a rerating story.
Brunello Cucinelli craftsmanship
Brunello Cucinelli's brand is still anchored in Italian luxury apparel and accessories, the category flagged in the market data page, with the company positioned around high-end tailoring, knitwear, and seasonal collections.
Price and structure
Brunello Cucinelli traded at EUR 86.52 in the latest FTSE MIB session and EUR 86.62 in the latest MarketScreener snapshot, keeping the shares close to the same price band across the most recent sessions.
