LSE Group (ISIN GB00B0SWJX34) was trading at GBp 8,730.00 on the London Stock Exchange on October 20, 2026, at 8:08 a.m. BST. Yahoo Finance reported on October 8, 2026, that UBS maintained its Buy rating and GBp 11,700 price target ahead of the companys October 22 trading update.
UBS keeps the target unchanged
The analyst view puts the upcoming update at the center of the short-term case. UBS expects currency-adjusted subscription revenue growth of 6.60 percent in the third quarter of 2026 and a 6.50 percent full-year target, while warning that artificial intelligence revenue needs clearer evidence.
The Market Reporter said on October 8, 2026, that UBS kept the GBp 11,700 target and expected annual revenue growth of 6.00 percent to 7.00 percent between 2025 and 2028. The report also said the bank expected earnings per share growth of 15.00 percent over that period.
What will the update mean for growth?
The answer depends on whether subscription growth accelerates beyond the first-half pace. Finimize reported on October 6, 2026, that Bank of America expected organic subscription growth of 6.70 percent in the second half of 2026, compared with 6.30 percent in the first half.
LSE Group entered this test from a sizable operating base. Markets Insider reported that revenue reached GBP 4.98 billion and net profit GBP 814.00 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared with GBP 4.65 billion and GBP 649.00 million a year earlier.
