MLP SE (ISIN DE0006569908) is trading at EUR 10.48 at Lang & Schwarz on October 15, 2026 at 12:34 p.m. CEST, 0.19 percent below the Xetra close of October 14, 2026 at EUR 10.50. The latest analyst update came from NuWays, which raised its 12-month target for MLP stock from EUR 12.00 to EUR 14.00 on October 5, 2026, according to TradingView.

Guidance moves higher

MLP had raised its full-year 2026 EBIT forecast to EUR 110 million to EUR 120 million on October 2, 2026, from EUR 100 million to EUR 110 million. The company also said it expected third-quarter 2026 EBIT to exceed the EUR 18.3 million reported for the third quarter of 2025. The guidance change is documented in the company's release on MLP.

The operating signal is concentrated in performance-based compensation. MLP reported EUR 21 million of related third-quarter revenue, compared with EUR 2.8 million in the same period of 2025, while the company linked the stronger outlook to assets under management and higher interest rates.

What does the target imply?

NuWays raised its own 2026 EBIT estimate from EUR 116 million to EUR 123 million on October 5, 2026. That forecast is above the midpoint of MLP's new EUR 115 million guidance range, giving the analyst case a more demanding earnings assumption than the company's central outlook. NuWays also kept a Buy rating and based the EUR 14.00 target on higher expected return on equity.

Next reporting date

MLP is scheduled to publish its final third-quarter and first nine-month figures for 2026 on November 12, 2026, according to the October 2 company release. Those figures will show whether the higher performance-based compensation translates into the expected quarterly EBIT improvement and how much of the upgraded annual range is already supported by reported results.

Valuation stays near the yearly high

At EUR 10.48, the stock is EUR 0.40 below its 52-week high of EUR 10.88 and above its 52-week low of EUR 5.85. MLP's market capitalization is EUR 1.1 billion as of October 15, 2026. The combination of a higher earnings corridor and a target of EUR 14.00 leaves the analyst view dependent on continued fee income and interest-related earnings.

MLP stock was trading at EUR 10.48 at Lang & Schwarz on October 15, 2026 at 12:34 p.m. CEST, 0.19 percent below the Xetra close of October 14, 2026 at EUR 10.50. The further course of trading is shown by the continuously updated real-time quote of MLP stock.
