Deutsche Börse (DE0005810055) stock traded at 254.40 euros on August 13, 2026, with a market value of 46.9 billion euros and a 52-week range of 180.20 euros to 256.00 euros. The move keeps the exchange group close to its year high while the latest reported quarter still shows double-digit growth.
Q1 2026 numbers
In the first quarter of 2026, revenue rose 20 percent to 1.79 billion euros, while EBITDA increased 10 percent to 1.13 billion euros and net income reached 597 million euros. Versus the first quarter of 2025, revenue climbed from 1.49 billion euros and EBITDA advanced from 1.03 billion euros, a clear comparison that shows the group's infrastructure model still scales.
The figures matter because Deutsche Börse earns across trading, clearing, settlement and data services, so the revenue mix is broader than a pure exchange label suggests. That makes the 597 million euro net result in Q1 2026 a useful marker for how much of the business converts into profit.
Market backdrop
The DAX touched 26,573.50 points in recent trade before easing to 26,331.07 points, and the index was later quoted at 26,430 points in morning trading on August 13, 2026. Deutsche Börse's own share price therefore sat close to the upper end of its 52-week band even as the broader German market stayed active.
For investors, the immediate comparison is simple: the stock at 254.40 euros stands less than 1 percent below the 256.00 euro 52-week high, which leaves little room between the current quote and the recent ceiling. The market cap of 46.9 billion euros also places the group among the heavyweight names in Frankfurt's financial infrastructure complex.
Product side
One representative product is the group's market data and analytics franchise, which sits alongside trading and post-trade services. That part of the business matters because recurring data and index demand can add stability when transaction volumes fluctuate.
Closing view
Deutsche Börse shares were last quoted at 254.40 euros on August 13, 2026. The combination of a 46.9 billion euro market cap, a 52-week high of 256.00 euros and Q1 2026 revenue of 1.79 billion euros frames the stock as a large-cap operator trading near a technical reference point.
