Walt Disney (ISIN US2546871060) was trading at EUR 99.02 at Lang & Schwarz on October 21, 2026, at 10:30 a.m. CEST, 0.12 percent below the Xetra close of October 20, 2026 at EUR 99.14. The immediate company catalyst is Citigroup's October 16, 2026 decision to raise its Walt Disney price target from USD 135.00 to USD 140.00 while keeping a Buy rating, as Markets Insider reported.

Three dates shape the case

On August 5, 2026, Disney reported fiscal third-quarter revenue of USD 25.25 billion, up 6.8 percent from the prior-year period, while diluted earnings per share came in at USD 1.51. The figures are also carried in a detailed fiscal-quarter review by Financial Report Insights.

On October 12, 2026, Disney announced that executives would discuss fiscal fourth-quarter and full-year results on November 17, 2026. The official Business Wire release said the webcast would begin at 8:30 a.m. ET and that results would be released before regular trading.

On October 16, 2026, Citigroup raised its target from USD 135.00 to USD 140.00. That sequence puts the November report ahead as the next test of whether Disney's operating improvement can support the valuation case.

What does the target mean?

The target change matters because Disney's latest operating figures improved unevenly rather than across every business. Fiscal third-quarter adjusted earnings per share rose 28.0 percent to USD 2.06, while total segment operating income increased 21.0 percent to USD 5.56 billion, according to the fiscal-quarter analysis by Financial Report Insights.

Streaming was a key support: combined Disney+ and Hulu operating income reached USD 712.00 million in the fiscal third quarter, compared with USD 329.00 million a year earlier. Sports operating income moved the other way, falling 17.0 percent to USD 858.00 million, leaving the November update important for judging the mix of growth and cost pressure.

Next date for Disney investors

The next substantiated date is November 17, 2026, when Disney is scheduled to release fiscal fourth-quarter and full-year 2026 results before the market opens and hold its webcast.

Stock trades below its close

The euro quote is only 0.12 percent below the Xetra close, so the analyst target remains the stronger headline driver than the small pre-market price difference. Disney's primary listing is on the NYSE, where its finance quote showed USD 111.66 on October 20, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. ET; the separate home-market value does not replace the euro reference price.

Walt Disney stock was trading at EUR 99.02 at Lang & Schwarz on October 21, 2026 at 10:30 a.m. CEST, 0.12 percent below the Xetra close of October 20, 2026 at EUR 99.14. The further course of trading is shown by the continuously updated real-time quote of Walt Disney stock.
