Barclays cut its Informa price target to GBp 1,050 from GBp 1,055 on September 21, 2026, while retaining an Overweight rating, according to Morningstar. Informa stock was trading at EUR 10.30 at Lang & Schwarz on October 1, 2026, up 0.49 percent from the EUR 10.25 prior close.

Barclays trims target to 1,050 GBp

The target reduction is modest at GBp 5, or 0.47 percent versus the previous GBp 1,055 target. The unchanged Overweight rating keeps the key analyst signal constructive, but the lower target shows that valuation assumptions are being fine-tuned rather than raised across the board.

Six analysts set 1,135 GBp average

MarketBeat reported on September 19, 2026, that all six analysts covering Informa rated the stock Buy and that the average 12-month target was GBp 1,135. Its cited target range ran from GBp 1,040 to GBp 1,285, giving investors a concrete measure of disagreement even within the positive consensus.

Informa's latest interim update also supplies an operating reference point. The company says on its investor page that it announced half-year results on July 30, 2026, with an outlook for stronger growth in 2027. A TSNN report dated September 14, 2026, said underlying revenue grew 6.8 percent in the first half of 2026, while B2B Live Events grew 8.0 percent.

Stock sits below its 1,000 GBp high

MarketBeat listed Informa's 52-week range at GBp 719 to GBp 1,000 and its market capitalization at GBP 10.9 billion on September 19, 2026. The current euro quote and the London range use different currencies, so the levels are best read as separate venue references rather than a direct price-distance calculation.

Euro quote remains near EUR 10

At Lang & Schwarz, Informa was trading at EUR 10.30 on October 1, 2026 at 12:09 p.m. CEST, versus a prior close of EUR 10.25 and a daily change of plus 0.49 percent. The further course of trading is shown by the continuously updated real-time quote of Informa stock.
