WuXi AppTec (ISIN CNE100003F19) was quoted at EUR 22.03 at Lang & Schwarz at 8:58 a.m. CEST on October 19, 2026, giving investors a live German-market reference before the regular Xetra session. The latest valuation update puts a sharper number on the debate: Simply Wall St reported a fair value target of CNY 224.81, down from CNY 230.00.
Target cut meets strong growth
The target reduction is modest against the company's operating progress. WuXi AppTec reported first-half 2026 revenue of CNY 28.90 billion, an increase of 38.93 percent from the same period a year earlier, according to Chozan. The company also raised its full-year 2026 total-revenue guidance to CNY 58.50 billion to CNY 60.50 billion from CNY 51.30 billion to CNY 53.00 billion, as reported by Simply Wall St.
What does the October 27 date mean?
The next measured test is the third-quarter report. Finanzen.ch reported that analysts expect third-quarter revenue of HKD 18.10 billion, versus HKD 13.16 billion a year earlier, and earnings per share of HKD 2.97, compared with HKD 1.35. Those estimates frame the market's next check on whether first-half growth is continuing.
Three dates frame the story
On March 23, 2026, WuXi AppTec reported full-year 2025 revenue guidance of CNY 45.46 billion. On April 27, 2026, the company reported first-quarter revenue of CNY 12.44 billion. On October 7, 2026, the valuation target was set at CNY 224.81 after the earlier CNY 230.00 level, according to Simply Wall St.
Upcoming reporting date
The next substantiated date is October 27, 2026, when WuXi AppTec is scheduled to publish its third-quarter results. The figures will help test the CNY 58.50 billion to CNY 60.50 billion full-year revenue range.
Stock stays tied to execution
For investors, the central tension is clear: the valuation target was trimmed while first-half revenue growth reached 38.93 percent. The October report will show whether that operating pace is translating into the raised annual guidance.
WuXi AppTec was trading at EUR 22.03 at Lang & Schwarz on October 19, 2026 at 8:58 a.m. CEST. The further course of trading is shown by the continuously updated real-time quote of WuXi AppTec stock.
