Zalando SE (DE000ZAL1111) traded at 24.71 EUR in Tradegate estimates on August 31, 2026, after a 2.01% one-day gain and a 409,197-share session in the latest quote snapshot. MarketScreener also showed a 5-day advance of 8.10% and a year-to-date decline of 2.09%.
Partnership news adds a hook
The newest company-specific item in the quote feed is the Marks & Spencer expansion across Europe, a reminder that Zalando's B2B logistics and fulfillment layer is still part of the equity story. The same snapshot lists a market value of 5.82 billion EUR and a 2026 price-to-earnings ratio of 23x, which gives investors a quick valuation frame.
That mix matters because the stock is being judged on execution, not only on consumer fashion demand. The quote page shows the current year range from 18.61 EUR to 30.43 EUR, so the latest price still sits well inside the 2026 band.
What the latest report says
Zalando's last transcript on MarketScreener says the company held its Q2 2026 earnings call on August 4, 2026 and that net sales for 2026 are projected at 13.87 billion EUR, with 2027 net sales at 14.64 billion EUR. The same estimate set shows net income at 257 million EUR for 2026 and 425 million EUR for 2027.
Those figures point to a business that is still growing, but not at a breakneck pace. The valuation line on the same page - 23x 2026 earnings versus 14.2x for 2027 - suggests the market is already leaning on a stronger profit bridge next year.
Guidance and consensus
Recent coverage on ad hoc news says management is guiding for low to mid single-digit revenue growth in the current fiscal year and a clear improvement in adjusted EBIT versus the prior year. The same article says covering analysts' expectations for revenue and earnings remain aligned with that cautious outlook.
That combination gives the stock a simple test into the next update: revenue growth must stay visible while margin progress remains credible. With a 24.71 EUR estimate and a 30.43 EUR year high, investors are still weighing whether the recent share move reflects improving fundamentals or only a temporary rerating.
Zalando's marketplace core
Zalando's platform sells shoes, clothing, accessories and beauty products, while also offering logistics, fulfillment and marketing services to brands and partners. The company said at the end of 2025 it had 62 million active customers, which shows why scale keeps mattering in this story.
Stock level to watch
As of August 31, 2026, the latest estimate price is 24.71 EUR, with a 1-day move of 2.01%, a market cap of 5.82 billion EUR and a 2026 range of 18.61 EUR to 30.43 EUR.
