Pernod Ricard (ISIN FR0000120693) was last at EUR 58.04 on Euronext Paris on October 5, 2026, down 0.99 percent from the previous close. The pressure comes as the spirits group prepares to report first-quarter fiscal 2027 sales on October 15, after a difficult FY26.
FY26 sales fell 3.9 percent
Pernod Ricard reported EUR 9,404 million of consolidated sales for FY26, with organic sales down 3.9 percent and reported sales down 14.2 percent. The figures cover the fiscal year ended June 30, 2026, and show the difference between underlying trading pressure and currency and perimeter effects.
The company also reported a 5.2 percent organic decline in profit from recurring operations and a 6 percent increase in free cash flow to EUR 1.2 billion for FY26, according to the Yahoo Finance transcript dated September 24, 2026. Management said organic sales improved from a 5.9 percent decline in the first half to a 1.3 percent decline in the second half.
Analysts see limited near term upside
Deutsche Bank Research raised its Pernod Ricard price target from EUR 61 to EUR 63 on September 30, 2026, while keeping a Hold rating, according to Goldesel. The new target lies 8.5 percent above the October 5 price, a modest gap compared with more optimistic broker views.
MarketScreener shows an Outperform mean consensus from 20 analysts and an average price target of EUR 81.76. That average lies 40.9 percent above EUR 58.04, although the consensus figure is separate from the single Deutsche Bank view.
