Prosus stock was trading at EUR 35.64 at Lang & Schwarz on September 30, 2026, at 2:30 p.m. CEST, down 1.19 percent versus the prior close of EUR 36.07. The latest analyst revision keeps a Buy rating in place while putting a lower ceiling on the valuation debate.

Jefferies lowers its target

According to MarketScreener on September 10, 2026, Jefferies analyst Giles Thorne reduced the Prosus price target from EUR 66.50 to EUR 55.90 and retained a Buy recommendation. The revised target is still EUR 20.26 above the Lang & Schwarz price, but the cut shows that the current investment case depends on execution rather than a simple recovery in the share price.

The target revision also contrasts with Prosus's operating progress in fiscal 2026. A lower valuation target alongside faster business growth leaves investors weighing portfolio quality, capital allocation and the durability of earnings across the group's consumer internet assets.

Revenue growth meets capital returns

Prosus reported fiscal 2026 revenue of USD 9.7 billion, up 57 percent from the prior year, while adjusted EBITDA increased 84 percent to USD 1.3 billion. Simply Wall St also reported that free cash flow reached USD 1.5 billion in fiscal 2026.

Capital allocation remains a second measurable part of the story. According to MarketScreener on September 22, 2026, Prosus repurchased 2,155,408 shares between September 14 and September 18 for EUR 77.1 million, at an average price of EUR 35.77 per share.

Dividend date sets the next checkpoint

At its August 26, 2026 annual general meeting, Prosus approved a distribution of EUR 0.28 per ordinary share, with payment scheduled for December 1, 2026, according to Simply Wall St. MarketScreener lists November 5, 2026 as the ex-dividend date for the special distribution, giving the capital-return policy a defined near-term calendar marker.
