RTL Group (ISIN LU0061462528) was trading at EUR 28.70 on Xetra on October 7, 2026 at 1:07 p.m. CEST, up 0.88 percent from EUR 28.45. The price stood 1.23 percent above its 52-week low of EUR 28.35, while the latest half-year figures show streaming becoming a larger profit driver.
Half-year profit rises sharply
According to Yahoo Finance in the transcript of RTL Group's August 11, 2026 half-year call, revenue for the first half of 2026 rose 3.9 percent to EUR 2.9 billion. Adjusted EBITA increased from EUR 160 million in the first half of 2025 to EUR 239 million in the first half of 2026, lifting the adjusted margin from 5.8 percent to 8.3 percent.
Profit from continuing operations also increased from EUR 6 million to EUR 61 million in the first half of 2026. The comparison is favorable, but the contribution from Sky Deutschland covers only June because the acquisition closed on June 1, 2026.
Streaming supplies the growth
Streaming revenue grew 27 percent in the first half of 2026, according to Yahoo Finance. RTL Group expects streaming adjusted EBITA of EUR 100 million for full-year 2026, compared with a previous guidance range of EUR 25 million to EUR 50 million.
The group confirmed full-year adjusted EBITA guidance of EUR 725 million and expects 2026 revenue of EUR 7.1 billion to EUR 7.2 billion. That outlook places the streaming contribution at the center of the earnings story, while traditional television advertising remains the main operating counterweight.
Analysts remain measured
MarketScreener lists a Hold consensus from seven analysts, with an average target of EUR 34.23 and a displayed consensus spread of 9.18 percent. Against the October 7 price of EUR 28.70, that average target lies 19.27 percent above the price.
The same September 10, 2026 report says Deutsche Bank retained a Hold rating and a EUR 35 target. Bernstein had kept a Market-Perform rating and a EUR 30 target on September 15, 2026, according to finanzen.ch.
Stock stays near yearly low
RTL Group's market capitalization was EUR 4.4 billion on October 7, 2026. The EUR 28.70 price remains well below the 52-week high of EUR 39.00, leaving the streaming-driven earnings improvement to compete with a share price still close to its yearly floor.
RTL Group stock was trading at EUR 28.70 on Xetra on October 7, 2026 at 1:07 p.m. CEST. The next scheduled earnings release is November 17, 2026.
