Swisscom AG (CH0008742519) stock trades at CHF 629.50, and the latest market snapshot shows a 9.19% gain since January 1, 2026. The same snapshot shows a 5-day move of +0.08%, which keeps the name close to the top of the Swiss large-cap pack.
Recent trading view
The market data snapshot from Swisscom market snapshot on MarketScreener puts the last price at CHF 629.50, with the 5-day change at +0.08% and the year-to-date change at +9.19%. That combination matters because it shows a steady tape rather than a sharp post-event spike.
The same source also places the share price around a market-cap rich valuation band for Swiss telecom peers, which leaves earnings quality more important than headline growth. For investors, that makes cash generation and margin stability the key variables to track into the next reporting cycle.
Half-year figures
Swisscom reported revenue of CHF 5.45 billion in the first half of 2026, while EBITDA stood at CHF 2.26 billion and EBITDA margin reached 41.2%. Those figures are current because they refer to the first half of 2026, the latest reported interim period visible in the source set.
Compared with the prior-year period, revenue rose by 0.3% and EBITDA margin improved by 0.2 percentage points. The comparison is small, but it supports the view that operating performance is holding up even without a dramatic top-line step change.
Net income for the first half of 2026 came in at CHF 737 million, and capital expenditure was CHF 942 million. The mix points to a business that is still funding network investment while preserving solid profit conversion.
What matters next
In a Swiss telecom name, the main debate is usually not volume growth but how much of the revenue base can be turned into stable cash flow. Swisscom's first-half numbers keep that discussion centered on margin discipline, not on expansion at any cost.
A second focus is the dividend profile, because a mature carrier often trades on yield support as much as on earnings momentum. That is why the latest interim numbers matter more than any short-term mood shift in the market.
Products and services
Swisscom's consumer and business offers range from broadband and mobile packages to enterprise network and cloud services. For retail investors, the most visible product side is still the core connectivity base, which supports recurring revenue and gives the company room to defend margins.
