Umicore SA stock (ISIN BE0974320526) traded at EUR 23.00 on September 4, 2026, after a close at EUR 23.10 and a daily change of minus 0.43 percent. The latest visible quote also shows a 52-week range of EUR 12.80 to EUR 26.38.

Price stays above the yearly midpoint

The quote from Yahoo Finance puts the stock on a 1-year gain of 73.58 percent and a YTD gain of 28.42 percent as of September 4, 2026. For investors, that leaves the distance to the 52-week high of EUR 26.38 as the main chart reference.

Market value and return profile

The same snapshot shows a day range of EUR 22.58 to EUR 23.02 and volume at 0, with the delayed quote timestamped at the close on September 4, 2026. The combination of a EUR 23.00 price and a 52-week low of EUR 12.80 means the stock is still far above its floor.

What the last report said

In the latest visible financial context, Umicore reported revenue of EUR 1.8 billion in the first half of 2026, down 18 percent year on year, while underlying EBITDA reached EUR 264 million and the margin was 14.6 percent, according to Yahoo Finance snippets that summarize the period. The comparison matters: the margin stayed positive even as revenue fell, which keeps the cash conversion and cost base in focus.

Battery materials remain the swing factor

Umicore's battery materials business remains the most sensitive product area for the share price, because the market still tracks whether the group can turn the latest half-year margin into a more durable earnings base. A business with EUR 264 million of underlying EBITDA in the first half of 2026 still needs a clear follow-through in volumes and mix.

Closing price watch

At EUR 23.00 on September 4, 2026, the stock ended below its 52-week high but well above its 52-week low. That leaves the yearly range, not the one-day move, as the more important reference for the next session.
