Schaeffler (ISIN DE000SHA0100) was trading at EUR 6.13 at Lang & Schwarz on October 8, 2026 at 10:47 a.m. CEST, versus the Xetra close of EUR 6.27 on October 7, 2026. According to Markets Insider on October 7, 2026, Jefferies kept its Buy rating and set an EUR 8.70 price target.

Jefferies highlights robotics potential

The Jefferies view followed a capital markets day held by Agility Robotics, in which Schaeffler has an investment. The analyst note described the event as providing insight into Schaeffler's automotive and industrial businesses and the commercial development of humanoid robotics.

The rating is constructive, but its target remains below the earlier EUR 9.45 target cited in September. At EUR 6.13, the EUR 8.70 target lies 41.93 percent above the Lang & Schwarz price, a calculation based on the two euro values.

Second-quarter revenue stayed near estimate

TradingView lists second-quarter 2026 revenue at EUR 5.90 billion against an EUR 5.88 billion estimate. The finance statement for the same period reports operating income of EUR 238.00 million and net income of EUR 34.00 million, making profitability the more important watchpoint than the small revenue variance.

The company is also approaching its next scheduled reporting date. Schaeffler's investor-relations calendar lists November 3, 2026 for its nine-month results, while a pre-close conference call is scheduled for October 14, 2026.

Stock remains below its yearly high

The current EUR 6.13 reference price is EUR 0.27 above the 52-week low of EUR 5.86 and EUR 5.85 below the 52-week high of EUR 11.98, based on the primary-listing market data for Schaeffler. Market capitalization stood at EUR 5.8 billion on October 8, 2026, while volume was 284,932 shares in the primary-listing quote.

Schaeffler's investment case therefore combines a fresh robotics narrative with a target that implies a 41.93 percent gap from the Lang & Schwarz price. The upcoming November reporting date will provide the next quantified test of revenue resilience and operating profitability.
