Talanx (ISIN DE000TLX1005) was last at EUR 117.40 on Xetra on October 2, 2026 at 5:35 p.m. CEST, with a daily change of 0.95 percent. The insurer's first-half 2026 result and higher full-year outlook remain the central earnings reference for the stock.

Record profit lifts the earnings base

According to Investing.com in its October 1, 2026 report, Talanx generated EUR 1.50 billion in net income in the first half of 2026, an increase of 9 percent from the prior-year period. Insurance revenue reached EUR 24.3 billion, while major losses of EUR 942 million stayed below the EUR 1.42 billion budget.

The same report says Talanx now expects 2026 net income to exceed EUR 2.7 billion. That guidance raises the importance of claims development in the third quarter, because the company has linked the outlook to the level of large losses.

Analysts see a wide target spread

FinanzNachrichten reported on October 1, 2026 that Berenberg maintained a Buy rating and a EUR 163.00 price target. The bank also identified Talanx as a candidate for regular DAX inclusion in March, while the current free-float market-capitalization ranking does not meet the stricter criteria for an earlier fast entry.

Investing.com listed a Buy consensus from seven analysts on October 1, 2026. Four analysts were rated as buyers, while the average target was EUR 128.43, with a EUR 94.00 low and EUR 163.00 high. The average target lies 9.39 percent above the Xetra reference price.

Stock stays below the yearly high

At EUR 117.40, Talanx stock stood 8.85 percent below its 52-week high of EUR 128.80 and above its 52-week low of EUR 97.65 on October 2, 2026. Market capitalization was EUR 30.3 billion and trading volume was 126,595 shares on that date.

The next company results are scheduled for November 12, 2026, according to the Talanx investor-relations calendar. For investors, the key checkpoint is whether the strong first-half earnings base survives the third-quarter loss season.
