Cellnex stock gained 1.28 percent to EUR 22.92 on October 6, 2026, after the company reported first-half free cash flow of EUR 301 million. The result keeps cash generation at the center of the investment case after a sharp year-over-year increase.
Cash flow changes the picture
According to Cellnex in its release dated July 30, 2026, consolidated revenue reached EUR 1.994 billion in the first half of 2026, with organic revenue growth of 5.0 percent.
The quality of the result appears more clearly in cash generation. Free cash flow increased from EUR 19 million in the first half of 2025 to EUR 301 million in the first half of 2026, while adjusted EBITDA rose 6.4 percent and EBITDA after leases increased 7.7 percent, according to Cellnex.
Analyst targets remain higher
The valuation gap remains visible in the latest consensus. TickerLandia lists a Buy consensus from 24 analysts, with an average price target of EUR 34.71, a median of EUR 35.00, a high of EUR 45.80 and a low of EUR 21.00.
The average target lies 51.4 percent above the EUR 22.92 BME price. That spread places greater weight on whether Cellnex can turn the first-half cash-flow improvement into a repeatable trend rather than a single reporting-period effect.
Deutsche Bank maintained its Buy rating while cutting its target from EUR 42.50 to EUR 40.00, according to IT Boltwise on October 5, 2026. The adjustment shows that stronger cash flow has not removed valuation and execution concerns.
November results are next
Cellnex's next scheduled checkpoint is the third-quarter results release on November 5, 2026, a date reported by Capital.com. The figures will test whether the 5.0 percent organic revenue growth and the EUR 301 million free cash flow result can be extended into the second half.
Cellnex stock closes higher
Cellnex stock closed at EUR 22.92 on the BME on October 6, 2026, up 1.28 percent from the previous close. Its market capitalization was EUR 14.9 billion on the same date.
