L'Oréal stock (ISIN FR0000120321) was trading at EUR 382.00 at Lang & Schwarz on September 29, 2026 at 3:34 p.m. CEST, down 1.40 percent from the prior close of EUR 387.43. The immediate company event is a EUR 2.0 billion bond offering announced on September 24, 2026, while analysts remain divided over the valuation.
EUR 2 billion bond offering
According to MarketScreener on September 24, 2026, L'Oréal priced three bond tranches totaling EUR 2.0 billion. They comprise a EUR 850.0 million two-year floating-rate bond, a EUR 500.0 million three-year fixed-rate bond paying 3.75 percent, and a EUR 650.0 million seven-year fixed-rate bond paying 4.00 percent.
The proceeds are earmarked for general corporate purposes, and the bonds are scheduled for admission to Euronext Paris on September 30, 2026. The financing adds a concrete capital-markets event to the stock's recent analyst debate.
Q2 revenue reached EUR 23.7761 billion
Fintel reported that L'Oréal's latest earnings, dated July 29, 2026, included revenue of EUR 23.7761 billion for the period. The finance statement for Q2 2026 also shows net income of EUR 3.5471 billion and diluted EPS of EUR 6.63, giving the stock a recent earnings anchor.
L'Oréal's investor-relations calendar identifies October 22, 2026 as the next reporting date for sales and revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2026. In historical context, the company recorded EUR 44.05 billion of sales in fiscal year 2025 and comparable growth of 4.00 percent, according to L'Oréal Finance.
Analysts keep a divided view
As MarketScreener reported on September 23, 2026, Deutsche Bank reiterated a Sell rating and kept its price target at EUR 340.00. That target sits 10.99 percent below the Lang & Schwarz price, making the bank's view materially more cautious than the current market level.
For investors, the next test is the October sales release. The current EUR 382.00 price is 5.86 percent below the 52-week high of EUR 405.80 and the market capitalization is EUR 203.7 billion as of September 29, 2026.
