MTU Aero Engines (ISIN DE000A0D9PT0) was trading at EUR 358.95 at Lang & Schwarz on October 7, 2026 at 9:17 a.m. CEST, down 1.52 percent from the prior close of EUR 364.50. The move follows a fresh analyst update: Finanzen.ch reported on October 6, 2026 that Deutsche Bank Research raised its MTU target from EUR 435.00 to EUR 457.00 and retained its Buy rating.

Deutsche Bank raises its target

The revised target places the analyst view 27.31 percent above the Lang & Schwarz price, calculated against EUR 358.95. Deutsche Bank analyst Christophe Menard also estimated 10.00 percent revenue growth for MTU in the third quarter, while identifying potential for a higher maintenance, repair and overhaul outlook.

The timing matters because MTU is due to present third-quarter 2026 figures on October 29, 2026, according to the same Finanzen.ch report. That event gives investors a defined test for the revenue trajectory and the maintenance business identified in the note.

First-half figures set the bar

MTU reported first-half 2026 revenue of EUR 4.70 billion, up 13.00 percent year over year, while adjusted EBIT increased 5.00 percent to EUR 692.00 million. Investing.com also reported free cash flow of EUR 294.00 million for the period, an increase of 39.00 percent.

The mix is important. Commercial maintenance, repair and overhaul revenue rose 24.00 percent in the first half, offsetting a 4.00 percent decline in original equipment manufacturing, according to the same Investing.com summary. For investors, the October results therefore provide a direct check on whether aftermarket strength can continue to absorb pressure from GTF engine maintenance.

Stock remains below its yearly high

Bernstein Research maintained an Outperform rating and a EUR 450.00 target in a note dated October 1, 2026, as reported by Finanzen.ch. That target is 25.37 percent above the Lang & Schwarz price, while the stock remains below the EUR 404.80 52-week high recorded in the cited market data.
