Ackermans (ISIN BE0003764785) received a higher valuation from Degroof Petercam, which moved its rating from hold to buy and raised the target from EUR 289.00 to EUR 316.00 on October 12, 2026, according to Ideal Investisseur. The change puts the target 20.43 percent above the Lang & Schwarz price of EUR 262.40.

Target rises to EUR 316.00

The analyst action adds a fresh valuation reference to Ackermans after a strong interim result. Degroof Petercam's target is also above the EUR 300.20 52-week high reported for October 13, 2026, which makes the upgrade more demanding than a simple return to the previous peak.

Ackermans reported first-half 2026 net profit of EUR 339.60 million, up 25.00 percent from the comparable period, while its full-year profit outlook was revised to growth of 10.00 percent, Flows reported on August 28, 2026. The reporting period matters because the target change builds on current operating evidence rather than fiscal year 2025 alone.

What does the upgrade mean?

The key comparison is between the EUR 316.00 target and the current EUR 262.40 quote. That target represents 20.43 percent upside from the Lang & Schwarz price, while the stock remains 12.59 percent below its EUR 300.20 yearly high.
