Deutz stock was trading at EUR 11.39 at Lang & Schwarz on September 29, 2026 at 3:04 p.m. CEST, up 1.97 percent versus the prior close of EUR 11.17. The market is weighing stronger first-half operating figures against the companys large-scale expansion into defense technology.

Warburg raises its target

According to dpa-AFX on September 1, 2026, Warburg Research raised its Deutz price target from EUR 13.20 to EUR 19.00 and retained its Buy rating. The analyst cited the planned acquisition of FFG and potential synergies between defense technology and Deutzs conventional engine business.

The EUR 19.00 target stands 66.81 percent above the Lang & Schwarz price of EUR 11.39. That comparison highlights the scale of the analysts thesis, but the target depends on execution of the FFG transaction and the expected integration benefits.

First-half figures improve

Börse Express reported that Deutzs first-half 2026 order intake rose 28.7 percent to EUR 1.331 billion, while revenue increased 10.7 percent to EUR 1.115 billion. Adjusted EBIT climbed 43.1 percent to EUR 79.7 million, and the adjusted EBIT margin improved from 5.5 percent to 7.1 percent.

Management confirmed 2026 revenue guidance of EUR 2.3 billion to EUR 2.5 billion and an adjusted EBIT margin of 6.5 percent to 8.0 percent, according to the same September 12, 2026 report. The FFG transaction is expected to close by the end of 2026 or in the first quarter of 2027, making integration progress a key operational checkpoint.

Capital increase adds a counterpoint

MarketScreener published Deutzs September 14, 2026 announcement of a capital increase of up to 10 percent, involving up to 15,263,810 new shares. The company said the proceeds would strengthen financial flexibility for future growth opportunities.
