Elia stock sits 15.14 percent below its EUR 143.00 high at EUR 121.35

Elia stock (ISIN BE0003822393) was at EUR 121.35 at Lang & Schwarz on October 13, 2026 at 9:20 a.m. CEST, 15.14 percent below its EUR 143.00 52-week high. The comparison puts the current quote below the recent peak while the latest reported earnings show stronger profitability.

First-half profit rose 29.40 percent

Net profit attributable to Elia Group shareholders reached EUR 348.7 million in the first half of 2026, up 29.40 percent from the first half of 2025, according to Lightyear. The result was supported by growth in the regulated asset base and higher regulated returns, according to the same company coverage.

The earnings improvement matters because Elia combines regulated transmission activities in Belgium with its German 50Hertz business. Its network investment program covers projects including Ventilus, Boucle du Hainaut, Ostwind 3, Ostwind 4 and Gennaker.

Debt and guidance shape the picture

Net debt stood at EUR 14.3 billion at midyear 2026, up 5.00 percent from the end of 2025, according to Lightyear. The leverage figure is the main counterweight to the 29.40 percent increase in first-half net profit because financing costs remain important for a capital-intensive transmission operator.

Elia reaffirmed a 2026 net profit outlook of EUR 690.0 million to EUR 740.0 million, rather than raising the range, according to Lightyear. That range gives investors a defined benchmark for the second half of the year and keeps the upcoming reporting date central to the valuation discussion.

November 27 is the next milestone

Elia's investor-relations calendar lists the third-quarter 2026 statement for November 27, 2026, while full-year results are scheduled for March 3, 2027, according to the Elia Group investor-relations page. The November update should show whether regulated earnings growth is translating into progress toward the EUR 690.0 million to EUR 740.0 million annual range.

Stock remains below its yearly high

Lightyear lists Elia's 52-week range at EUR 96.40 to EUR 143.00 and market capitalization at EUR 13.0 billion as of September 2, 2026. Against that range, the Lang & Schwarz quote of EUR 121.35 sits 15.14 percent below the high and 25.88 percent above the low, using the same euro currency for both comparisons.

Elia's master-data profile identifies ticker ELI, Euronext Brussels and the Utilities sector, according to Global Banking and Finance Review. The regulated network model links the stock's valuation to earnings growth, capital spending and the cost of financing rather than to short-term electricity prices.

Investors have two dates to track

The next dated company event is the third-quarter statement on November 27, 2026, followed by full-year results on March 3, 2027. Until then, the key numerical balance is the EUR 348.7 million first-half net profit against EUR 14.3 billion of midyear net debt.

Price stays below EUR 143.00 high

At Lang & Schwarz, Elia was trading at EUR 121.35 on October 13, 2026 at 9:20 a.m. CEST, 15.14 percent below the EUR 143.00 52-week high. The further course of trading is shown by the continuously updated real-time quote of Elia stock.
