UBS keeps a EUR 71.00 target

According to dpa-AFX Analyser on September 24, 2026, UBS kept Henkel at Neutral with a EUR 71.00 price target. The analysis cited better pricing and a higher gross margin at H.B. Fuller as a positive read-across for Henkel, while Henkel's organic revenue estimates still had room to improve.

A more constructive benchmark came from Deutsche Bank Research on September 25, 2026. According to finanzen.ch, the bank kept a Buy rating but cut its target from EUR 81.00 to EUR 80.00 as it anticipated rising headwinds before the quarterly report.

First half shows measurable growth

Henkel's investor-relations release dated August 6, 2026, reported first-half revenue of EUR 10.3 billion and organic growth of 3.2 percent. The adjusted EBIT reached EUR 1.62 billion, while the adjusted EBIT margin rose to 15.7 percent, an increase of 0.10 percentage points.

The adjusted earnings per preferred share reached EUR 2.86, up 7.1 percent at constant exchange rates, according to Henkel. The company also raised its 2026 organic revenue-growth outlook to 1.5 percent to 3.5 percent from 1.0 percent to 3.0 percent, while keeping its adjusted EBIT margin outlook at 14.5 percent to 16.0 percent.

Third quarter date sets the next checkpoint

Henkel's financial calendar lists November 10, 2026, for its third-quarter 2026 report. That date is confirmed on Henkel's investor-relations page and gives the market a defined test for the raised growth outlook.
