Diploma stock (ISIN GB0001820412) traded at 6,987.50 GBX on September 15, 2026, after a 5-day decline of 1.10 percent and a 1st Jan gain of 32.93 percent. The shares sit in the consensus range around the 82.54 GBP average target published by MarketScreener, while the company itself says its strong first half performance reflected disciplined returns and sustainable quality compounding.

Consensus stays constructive

MarketScreener shows 16 analysts with a mean Buy consensus, an average target price of 82.54 GBP and a high target of 90.00 GBP on September 15, 2026. The same page lists a last close price of 70.65 GBP, which leaves the average target 16.83 percent above the market price.

That gap matters because it keeps Diploma near the center of broker interest rather than at the edge of the range. The low target of 70.00 GBP is only 0.92 percent below that same last close.

FY25 still sets the frame

On its investor page, Diploma highlights FY25 organic revenue growth of 11 percent, total revenue growth of 12 percent and an adjusted operating profit margin of 22.5 percent. The company also reports 21 percent adjusted EPS growth, 105 percent free cash flow conversion and net debt to EBITDA of 0.8x.

For investors, the combination of 22.5 percent margin and 0.8x net debt to EBITDA is the cleaner signal than the broad business description. It shows a business that is still converting sales into cash at a high rate while keeping leverage low.

Calendar now turns to November

Diploma's financial calendar on Diploma shows Final dividend announced and Preliminary Results announced for November 17, 2026, with the Annual Report and Accounts posted on December 4, 2026. The next visible event date gives the stock a clear checkpoint after the current broker consensus and FY25 operating metrics.

Diploma stock is priced at 6,987.50 GBX on September 15, 2026, while the average target remains 82.54 GBP and the last close in the consensus table is 70.65 GBP.
