RTL Group stock trades below its yearly high on streaming growth

RTL Group stock traded at EUR 31.05 on Xetra on September 24, 2026, up 0.32 percent during the session and 20.38 percent below its 52-week high of EUR 39.00. The company’s streaming figures provide the clearest operating counterpoint to that valuation gap.
Streaming revenue rises to EUR 299 million
RTL Group’s streaming revenue reached EUR 299 million in H1 2026, compared with EUR 235 million in H1 2025, an increase of 27.2 percent, according to Bertelsmann.
The same H1 2026 data show that paid subscriptions for RTL+ and M6+ rose to 8.7 million from 7.2 million, a gain of 20.7 percent. The comparison matters because subscription growth is translating into revenue growth at a faster pace than the wider group’s traditional television model.
Profitability becomes the key test
RTL Group said on its investor page that its streaming services became profitable in H1 2026, while the company also completed the acquisition of Sky Deutschland on June 1, 2026, according to the RTL Group investor site. That combination gives the company a larger subscriber base but also makes execution and integration central to the investment case.
The latest earnings-call material states that RTL Group confirmed a 2026 adjusted EBITA target of EUR 725 million and expects streaming adjusted EBITA of EUR 100 million, according to Yahoo Finance. For investors, the key issue is whether subscriber expansion can continue to lift margins as Sky adds scale.
Stock remains below its yearly high
At EUR 31.05 on Xetra on September 24, 2026, RTL Group’s market capitalization stood at EUR 4,804,764,126. The stock’s 52-week range was EUR 28.80 to EUR 39.00, leaving the current quote EUR 7.95 below the high and EUR 2.25 above the low.
