London Stock Exchange Group stock stood at GBp 8,294 on September 23, 2026 at 5:15 p.m. London time, up 1.72 percent from GBp 8,154. The move follows a first half in which organic revenue grew 8.4 percent, giving the market a clear operating benchmark.
H1 growth reaches across divisions
According to Yahoo Finance, LSEG reported H1 2026 organic revenue growth of 8.4 percent with contributions across its operations. Subscription growth accelerated to 6.3 percent, adding a more recurring component to the revenue mix.
The earnings conversion was stronger than the top-line increase. Adjusted EBITDA rose 14 percent and adjusted operating profit increased 17 percent in H1 2026, according to the same earnings-call report from Yahoo Finance.
Cash flow outpaces earnings
Free cash flow per share increased 37 percent in H1 2026, while adjusted EPS grew 17 percent. The gap matters because it points to stronger cash conversion alongside the reported earnings expansion, rather than growth relying only on revenue momentum.
LSEG's financial profile combines market infrastructure with data and analytics, capital markets and post-trade services. That mix helps explain why subscription growth of 6.3 percent and organic revenue growth of 8.4 percent are central measures for assessing the group's earnings quality.
Stock remains below yearly high
At GBp 8,294 on September 23, 2026, the stock was GBp 1,846 below its 52-week high of GBp 10,140 and GBp 1,610 above its 52-week low of GBp 6,684. The 1.72 percent daily gain places the latest move within a broader range rather than at a new yearly peak.
London Stock Exchange Group's market capitalization was GBP 40,384,311,170 as of September 23, 2026. For investors, the key operating comparison is now the 8.4 percent organic revenue increase against the faster 14 percent adjusted EBITDA growth in H1 2026.
