Against the London Stock Exchange price of GBp 8,672.00 on October 13, 2026, that target stands 34.91 percent higher. LSE Group stock was at EUR 105.80 at Lang & Schwarz on October 13, 2026 at 1:51 p.m. CEST, down 1.00 percent on the London Stock Exchange versus its October 12, 2026 close of GBp 8,760.00.
Results date brings a near-term test
LSE Group's third-quarter 2026 results webcast is scheduled for October 22, 2026, according to LSEG. The company says the event will be hosted by Chief Executive Officer David Schwimmer and Chief Financial Officer Michel-Alain Proch.
UBS expects currency-adjusted subscription revenue to grow 6.60 percent in the third quarter and keeps its full-year target at 6.50 percent, according to Yahoo Finance. That comparison gives the webcast a clear numerical test: the quarterly subscription pace is expected to sit 0.10 percentage points above the full-year target.
Stock sits 14.48 percent below its high
The London Stock Exchange price was GBp 8,672.00 on October 13, 2026. Its 52-week range was GBp 6,684.00 to GBp 10,140.00, leaving the stock 14.48 percent below the high and 29.73 percent above the low. Trading volume was 188,779 shares against a 1,344,808-share average.
The price movement is separate from the company's operating milestones. LSE Group reported GBP 4.977 billion of revenue and GBP 814.0 million of net income in the second quarter of 2026, while diluted earnings per share were GBP 1.63. Those figures provide a recent earnings base before the October update.
Valuation remains part of the setup
