Iberdrola stock (ISIN ES0144580Y14) closed at EUR 20.37 on the BME Madrid exchange on September 22, 2026, gaining 0.34 percent during the session. The market price now sits EUR 0.17 below the 52-week high of EUR 20.54 and EUR 4.84 above the 52-week low of EUR 15.53, based on the same MarketScreener market record.

East Anglia Two could unlock capital

As Newsquawk reported on September 23, 2026, Iberdrola is reportedly planning to sell up to 49 percent of East Anglia Two, with the offshore wind project valued at approximately EUR 5 billion. The report attributes the information to Expansion, making the potential transaction the clearest company-specific event attached to the stock on the date.

A partial sale could provide capital while leaving Iberdrola with a majority position in the project. That interpretation is based on the reported 49 percent ceiling and EUR 5 billion valuation, rather than on a confirmed transaction price or completed sale.

Results date gives the next checkpoint

MarketScreener lists Iberdrola's next results publication for October 21, 2026, covering the third quarter of 2026. The same profile identifies Iberdrola as an electricity utility and reports 44,573 employees, while its business overview records 255,976 GWh of electricity sold in 2025.

The latest available profile also shows an average analyst price target of EUR 20.54 from 23 analysts, compared with the September 22 closing price of EUR 20.37. The EUR 0.17 gap equals 0.83 percent, so the published consensus points to limited upside relative to the quoted close.

Stock remains near yearly high

The BME Madrid quote of EUR 20.37 on September 22, 2026, was 31.17 percent above the 52-week low of EUR 15.53 and 0.83 percent below the 52-week high of EUR 20.54. The closing level therefore places the stock close to the top of its reported annual range, while the potential project monetization supplies a separate capital-allocation angle.
