Deutsche Lufthansa AG (DE0008232125) enters the new trading week with a pronounced analyst focus as the shares trade on Xetra in the MDAX and the Stoxx Europe 600. Consensus data from several houses show how the market currently prices the airline’s recovery path and balance-sheet progress.
What analysts currently say
On MarketScreener, 18 to 20 analysts cover Lufthansa, with the majority of ratings clustered in the Hold to Buy range and only a few clear Sell recommendations, indicating a mixed but not pessimistic stance on the shares as of late June 2026. Consensus overview on MarketScreener
The average 12-month price target in these compilations sits moderately above the current Xetra quotation around the mid-single-digit percentage range, signaling expectations for some upside but without aggressive growth assumptions. Several large banks, including Deutsche Bank and UBS, retain neutral to constructive views as they factor in capacity expansion, cost measures and geopolitical risks.
How the estimates line up
For the current financial year, analyst models compiled by financial portals forecast group revenue clearly above the pre-pandemic level of 2019, with double-digit billion-euro sales supported by robust passenger demand and cargo contributions. Earnings expectations, however, remain more cautious because of higher fuel costs, wage agreements and fleet investments.
On platforms such as finanzen.net, consensus estimates point to a positive net result and an operating margin in the mid-single-digit percentage band, underlining that the market expects a profitable but not yet normalized cycle for the airline. Analyst and key-figure page on finanzen.net
