Hensoldt stock traded at EUR 85.71 at Lang & Schwarz on October 19, 2026 at 9:50 a.m. CEST, down 2.45 percent from the Xetra close of EUR 87.86. The immediate company-specific reference is an analyst view from October 16, when Deutsche Bank maintained its Buy rating and set a EUR 105.00 price target, according to Markets Insider.

Target stays above the quotation

The EUR 105.00 target stands EUR 19.29 above the Lang & Schwarz price. Deutsche Bank's stance therefore provides a positive valuation reference, while the daily move puts the stock below the target level in the German market.

The latest reported operating figures remain the main support for the company story. In the first half of 2026, Hensoldt recorded revenue of EUR 1.167 billion, up 23.60 percent from EUR 944 million in the first half of 2025. Adjusted EBITDA rose 28.50 percent to EUR 137 million from EUR 107 million, according to 4investors.

What does the order book mean?

The first-half order intake reached EUR 2.812 billion, exactly 100.10 percent above the EUR 1.405 billion reported for the prior-year period. The order backlog reached EUR 10.356 billion, 46.50 percent above EUR 7.070 billion a year earlier. These figures show why execution and delivery capacity matter alongside the analyst target.

Three dated developments

On June 1, 2026, Hensoldt raised its adjusted free cash flow guidance for 2026. On July 31, 2026, the company reported first-half revenue of EUR 1.167 billion and adjusted EBITDA of EUR 137 million. On October 16, 2026, Deutsche Bank maintained its Buy rating and EUR 105.00 target, as reported by Markets Insider.

Next date is November 5

Hensoldt's next substantiated reporting date is November 5, 2026, when it plans to publish its nine-month 2026 quarterly statement, according to the Hensoldt investor-relations calendar.

Stock stays below its October 16 close

Hensoldt's market capitalization was EUR 10.0 billion as of October 19, 2026. Its 52-week range was EUR 63.18 to EUR 103.30, leaving the Lang & Schwarz quotation below the yearly high while remaining above the low. The next results will test whether the first-half growth and order intake are translating into the expected second-half delivery pace.
