Deutsche Bank sets a clear benchmark

The target places the current Lang & Schwarz price 12.32 percent below the analyst target. That comparison matters because the stock's same-day move was subdued, while the rating remains positive.

The wider analyst picture is mixed but constructive. finanzen.ch lists five recent analyst opinions, with three Buy recommendations and two Hold ratings, and an average target of EUR 103.00.

First-half growth improves in the second quarter

Symrise reported EUR 2.539 billion in sales for the first half of 2026, with organic growth of 2.00 percent. In the second quarter, organic sales growth accelerated to 4.50 percent after a slight decline in the first quarter, according to Yahoo Finance.

Adjusted EBITDA reached EUR 553.0 million in the first half of 2026, producing a 21.80 percent margin. Management reaffirmed its 2026 outlook for 2.00 percent to 4.00 percent organic sales growth, an adjusted EBITDA margin of 21.50 percent to 22.50 percent and an adjusted business free cash flow margin above 14.00 percent.

Stock remains below its yearly high

At EUR 90.31, Symrise stock stood 15.76 percent below its 52-week high of EUR 107.20 and 39.59 percent above its 52-week low of EUR 64.70, based on the October 2, 2026 market snapshot. The valuation debate therefore combines a positive analyst target with a business that still has to convert second-quarter momentum into sustained growth.
