Nemetschek stock traded at EUR 64.43 on Lang & Schwarz at 17:12 CET on Wednesday, November 11, 2026, 0.20 percent above the Xetra close of Tuesday, November 10, at EUR 64.30. Compared with the EUR 63.33 quote in the previous Ad Hoc News report at 11:47 CET, the shares were 1.74 percent higher.
JPMorgan adds a constructive signal
JPMorgan raised its rating on Nemetschek to Overweight on Monday, November 9, after the software group released its third-quarter results on November 5. The broker move adds a more constructive view to an investor debate focused on recurring revenue, HCSS integration and the quality of reported margins.
Nemetschek's latest quarterly figures combined strong reported growth with acquisition effects. Revenue rose 26.6 percent year over year to EUR 371.1 million, while organic growth reached 13.7 percent on a reported basis and 12.5 percent at constant currency. Annual recurring revenue increased 35.8 percent to EUR 1,462.2 million.
HCSS keeps execution in focus
The HCSS acquisition lifted reported growth and helped the Build division, where revenue increased 56.6 percent to EUR 190.8 million. Design revenue grew 7.2 percent, while Media revenue declined 2.7 percent.
Reported third-quarter EBITDA rose 21.8 percent to EUR 115.9 million, equivalent to a 31.2 percent margin. The organic EBITDA margin was 34.8 percent. Reported earnings per share fell to EUR 0.40, while adjusted earnings per share increased 20.0 percent to EUR 0.66.
Management retained its 2026 target for 14 to 15 percent organic currency-adjusted revenue growth and an EBITDA margin of 32 to 33 percent. HCSS is expected to add 600 basis points to currency-adjusted group revenue growth, while purchase-price-allocation effects, integration costs and share-based compensation are expected to weigh on reported margins.
What investors will watch next
The broker upgrade therefore faces an execution test. Investors will focus on recurring-revenue expansion, HCSS integration and the path from organic operating performance to reported margins.
