STMicroelectronics stock traded at EUR 45.06 on Euronext Paris on September 24, 2026, down 2.27 percent. The move came as concerns about the risk profile of artificial intelligence investment weighed on several European technology shares, according to Zonebourse.
Q2 revenue adds USD 392 million
STMicroelectronics reported Q2 2026 revenue of USD 3.487 billion for the period ended June 27, 2026, compared with USD 3.095 billion in Q1. The USD 392 million sequential increase was driven by communication equipment, computer and peripherals, and automotive demand, according to Yahoo Finance.
The operating result also improved from USD 70 million in Q1 to USD 187 million in Q2. Gross margin rose from 34 percent to 35 percent, while net income increased from USD 43 million to USD 225 million over the same periods.
AI revenue becomes a key test
The earnings call highlighted a sharp difference between end markets. Communication equipment, computer and peripherals revenue increased 13 percent sequentially and 50 percent year over year in Q2 2026, while personal electronics revenue rose 3 percent sequentially and 20 percent year over year, according to Yahoo Finance.
Management expects AI data center revenue above USD 1 billion in 2026 and well above USD 2 billion in 2027 if current engagements continue. That target gives the market a measurable test for whether the recent technology demand can offset pressure in lower-growth product areas.
UBS keeps EUR 80 target
According to MarketScreener, UBS maintained its Buy rating and an EUR 80 price target for STMicroelectronics. The target stands EUR 34.94 above the September 24 market price, making AI execution and margin recovery central variables for the valuation.
Market value remains EUR 46.87 billion
STMicroelectronics had a market capitalization of EUR 46.87 billion on September 24, 2026. The stock was trading at EUR 45.06 on Euronext Paris on that date, with the daily decline providing the immediate market counterpoint to the stronger Q2 operating figures.
