Schindler stock is heading into its next results date with RBC Capital maintaining a Hold rating and setting a CHF 295.00 price target on October 9, 2026, according to Markets Insider. The target leaves the analyst view centered on valuation while the company prepares to report third-quarter figures.

RBC keeps CHF 295 target

RBC analyst Nicholas Housden kept the Hold rating and assigned the CHF 295.00 target on October 9, 2026. The same report cited a consensus target of CHF 296.87, giving investors a second reference point for the valuation discussion.

Schindler's latest reported figures offer a mixed operating picture. For the first half of 2026, revenue reached CHF 5.33 billion and grew 1.40 percent in local currencies, while order intake reached CHF 5.79 billion and increased 2.90 percent. These figures come from the company's interim reporting published on July 21, 2026, available through the Schindler investor-relations page.

What does 13.20 percent mean?

The first-half operating margin was 13.20 percent, compared with full-year guidance of 13.00 percent. In the half-year call, management also said modernization order intake grew 11.00 percent in the second quarter, while the backlog was up 5.80 percent against year-end 2025, according to Yahoo Finance. The margin is therefore above the full-year target, but the unchanged guidance reflects cost inflation and the timing of modernization projects.

Three dated signals shape the story

On June 18, 2026, Schindler increased its ongoing share buyback program to as much as CHF 700 million. On July 21, 2026, first-half revenue reached CHF 5.33 billion and operating margin reached 13.20 percent. On October 9, 2026, RBC Capital maintained its Hold rating and set the CHF 295.00 target.

The next dates are October 22 and November 19

Schindler is scheduled to publish its third-quarter 2026 results on October 22, 2026, and to hold its capital markets day on November 19, 2026, according to the Schindler investor-relations page. The results will test whether modernization growth can offset weakness in new installations.
