GFT Technologies stock (ISIN DE0005800601) was last at EUR 26.50 on Xetra on October 2, 2026, up EUR 0.15 or 0.57 percent from the prior close. The latest company reporting milestone is GFT's first-half 2026 report, published on August 6, 2026, with full-year guidance confirmed on the investor-relations page.

Second-quarter growth reaches 8.4 percent

GFT's second-quarter 2026 revenue rose 8.4 percent from the same quarter of 2025 to EUR 238.1 million, according to Simply Wall St. Net income increased 33 percent to EUR 8.49 million, while EPS reached EUR 0.33, compared with EUR 0.24 in the second quarter of 2025.

The improvement also appeared in profitability. GFT's net profit margin rose to 3.6 percent in the second quarter of 2026 from 2.9 percent a year earlier, a 0.7 percentage-point gain that gives the AI-focused transformation strategy a measurable operating result.

Six analysts support a Strong Buy view

The consensus published by Investing.com is Strong Buy, based on 6 analysts. The average 12-month price target is EUR 30.833, which places the target 16.35 percent above GFT's EUR 26.50 Xetra price on October 2, 2026.

The same Investing.com page lists Berenberg at Buy on September 1, 2026, after the bank raised its target from EUR 24.00 to EUR 30.00. That change gives the analyst view a concrete link to GFT's recent operating improvement, while the share price remains 3.46 percent below its 52-week high of EUR 27.45 on the October 2 market snapshot.

AI strategy meets a higher earnings base

GFT describes itself as an AI-centric digital transformation company serving financial and manufacturing customers. Its investor-relations page says the group had more than 12,000 talents across more than 20 markets and identifies platform modernization, AI and data solutions, and digital finance as its core areas.

For investors, the key comparison is the combination of revenue growth and margin recovery: second-quarter revenue advanced 8.4 percent, EPS rose from EUR 0.24 to EUR 0.33, and net margin improved from 2.9 percent to 3.6 percent. The figures support a more profitable growth profile, but the stock's position below the annual high keeps valuation and execution central to the next assessment.
