Three dated milestones matter
On July 30, 2026, second-quarter revenue reached EUR 1.12 billion, up 13 percent from the prior-year quarter, while net income was EUR 314.7 million and unchanged year over year, according to Simply Wall St. On September 21, 2026, electricity demand in Italy reached 28.9 TWh in August, up 16.5 percent year over year, MarketScreener reported. On October 5, 2026, the buyback closed at EUR 9.00 million, according to Repubblica.
What does the target signal?
Goldman Sachs reiterated a Sell rating and set an EUR 8.90 price target in a report dated October 12, 2026, citing balance-sheet utilization and valuation concerns, according to Finvaulta. The report also described expected earnings-per-share growth of 2 percent through 2030, keeping financial capacity at the center of the debate.
Next reporting date
Terna's next scheduled reporting date is November 11, 2026, when it is expected to publish third-quarter results, according to MarketScreener. That release should show whether revenue growth is translating into stable profitability and whether the balance-sheet concern identified by Goldman Sachs is easing.
Stock price and valuation
Terna operates Italy's electricity transmission network and is listed on Borsa Italiana under ticker TRN. Its market capitalization was EUR 18.8 billion as of October 21, 2026. The combination of a completed buyback, double-digit second-quarter revenue growth and a cautious EUR 8.90 target leaves the November report as the next concrete test for the investment case.
