Inter Cars (ISIN PLINTCS00010) was last at PLN 948 on GPW on October 6, 2026 at 11:12 a.m. CEST, up 3.61 percent on the session. The move follows first-half results in which net income exceeded the published consensus while revenue growth remained in double digits.

Profit beats second-quarter consensus

According to Bankier.pl on September 8, 2026, second-quarter net income attributable to shareholders reached PLN 279.2 million, compared with a consensus of PLN 261.7 million. That is a 6.7 percent beat. Operating profit was PLN 396.2 million against PLN 375.6 million expected, while EBITDA came in at PLN 471.3 million versus PLN 449.6 million.

Revenue was the weaker part of the quarter: PLN 5,986.6 million compared with PLN 6,020.2 million expected, a shortfall of 0.6 percent. The combination of a revenue miss and stronger profitability points to margin delivery as the central earnings feature for the stock.

First-half growth broadens

Investing.com reported on September 8, 2026 that first-half revenue rose 12.8 percent year over year to PLN 11.41 billion, while net income increased 42.1 percent to PLN 490.5 million. Operating profit reached PLN 712.9 million, up 32.6 percent.

The latest sales update adds operating momentum. Bankier.pl reported that August group sales reached PLN 1,874.8 million, up 15.0 percent year over year. Foreign distribution companies generated PLN 1,033.9 million, an increase of 18.7 percent.

Consensus stays below the market

The valuation signal is more restrained than the earnings growth. MarketScreener lists a Buy consensus from four analysts and an average 12-month target of PLN 865.80, with the target 8.7 percent below the October 6 price. The same calendar names November 17, 2026 as the earnings release date for third-quarter 2026.

For investors, the key tension is clear: reported profit is accelerating faster than revenue, but the average analyst target remains below the latest market quote. That makes the next report important for testing whether higher margins can continue to offset the more modest sales outlook.

Stock remains below yearly high

Inter Cars stock was last at PLN 948 on GPW on October 6, 2026 at 11:12 a.m. CEST, with a session range of PLN 916 to PLN 949. The price is 5.6 percent below the 52-week high of PLN 1,004, while the market capitalization stands at PLN 13.3 billion.
