Hermès International stock was trading at EUR 1,269.50 at Lang & Schwarz on October 5, 2026 at 11:17 a.m. CEST, down 3.09 percent versus the prior close of EUR 1,310.00. The company is scheduled to publish its third-quarter 2026 sales update on October 22, 2026, according to Hermès Finance. The sharp daily move puts the upcoming revenue release alongside a still resilient first-half operating profile.
October sales set the next test
The October 22 release will cover the third quarter of 2026 and arrives after Hermès reported EUR 8.163 billion of revenue for the first half of 2026. Hermès Finance said first-half revenue grew 6.10 percent at constant exchange rates and 1.60 percent at current exchange rates versus the first half of 2025.
The comparison shows why the next sales figure matters: currency effects reduced the reported growth rate by 4.50 percentage points. That gap gives the October release a clear analytical reference point without turning the constant-currency figure into reported revenue growth.
First-half margin holds at 41.00 percent
Hermès generated EUR 3.351 billion of current operating profit in the first half of 2026, compared with EUR 3.327 billion in the first half of 2025. The current operating margin was 41.00 percent, versus 41.40 percent a year earlier, according to Hermès Finance.
Net income attributable to the group was EUR 2.238 billion in the first half of 2026, compared with EUR 2.246 billion in the first half of 2025. The figures point to a small earnings decline alongside stable operating profitability, making margin preservation a central measure for the next report.
Stock sits near the yearly low
The Lang & Schwarz price was EUR 9.50 above the finance data quote's EUR 1,260.00 52-week low and EUR 1,030.50 below its EUR 2,300.00 52-week high, both as of October 5, 2026. That places the stock 0.75 percent above its yearly low, while the company's market capitalization stood at EUR 133.0 billion on the same date.
