Sempra (ISIN US8168511090) was trading at EUR 68.78 at Lang & Schwarz on October 1, 2026 at 11:04 a.m. CEST, showing minus 0.04 percent versus the EUR 68.81 prior close. According to Business Insider on September 29, 2026, Scotiabank initiated coverage with a Sector Perform rating and an USD 83.00 price target.
Scotiabank adds a measured view
The new target places Scotiabank below the broader analyst range. MarketBeat reported that Morgan Stanley cut its target from USD 104.00 to USD 100.00 on September 18, 2026 while retaining an Overweight rating.
MarketBeat also cited a consensus Moderate Buy view with an average target of USD 101.69. That target is an analyst comparison in US dollars and is separate from the euro reference price used for German-market investors.
Second-quarter earnings improved
Sempra reported USD 762 million in adjusted earnings for the second quarter of 2026, compared with USD 583 million in the second quarter of 2025. The increase was 30.70 percent, while adjusted earnings per share rose to USD 1.16 from USD 0.89.
GAAP earnings reached USD 796 million, or USD 1.21 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2026, versus USD 461 million, or USD 0.71 per share, in the year-earlier period. Revenue was USD 3.00 billion, below the USD 3.14 billion consensus cited by MarketBeat.
Guidance keeps the focus on execution
Sempra affirmed adjusted earnings-per-share guidance of USD 4.80 to USD 5.30 for fiscal year 2026 and USD 5.10 to USD 5.70 for fiscal year 2027. The company also maintained a projected long-term earnings-per-share growth rate of 7.00 percent to 9.00 percent, according to its second-quarter release.
The next scheduled earnings date is November 4, 2026, according to the company listing cited by Stock Analysis. Sempra's primary exchange is the NYSE, where the stock was last quoted at USD 77.96 on September 30, 2026 at 3:59 p.m. ET, against a 52-week range of USD 76.21 to USD 101.04.
Stock trades near its yearly low
At USD 77.96, the NYSE quote stood USD 1.75 above the 52-week low and USD 23.08 below the high. The separate Lang & Schwarz quote was EUR 68.78, so the two venues and currencies should not be treated as one daily move.
