Bic stock holds near EUR 66 after 29.82 percent YTD gain

Bic stock (ISIN FR0000120198) closed at EUR 66.70 on Euronext Paris on September 21, 2026, gaining 0.15 percent from the previous close. The shares had risen 29.82 percent since the start of 2026, giving the latest quotation a stronger year-to-date context than the single-session move suggests.

Half-year growth supports valuation

According to Ad-hoc-News on September 21, 2026, Bic reported that revenue in the first six months of 2026 increased by a high-single-digit percentage compared with the first six months of 2025. The same half-year update said adjusted operating margin improved by several percentage points year on year.

The combination matters because revenue growth and margin expansion point in the same direction for the first half of 2026. Pricing and efficiency measures were identified as contributors to the margin improvement, making profitability the key operating measure behind the stock's year-to-date advance.

Stock remains near EUR 67
