Mota-Engil stock stood at EUR 4.79 at Lang & Schwarz on October 14, 2026 at 4:58 p.m. CEST, 22.87 percent below its 52-week high of EUR 6.21. The quotation was 1.05 percent above the Euronext Lisbon close of October 13, 2026, which was EUR 4.74.
First-half revenue sets the baseline
Simply Wall St reports that Mota-Engil generated EUR 2.90 billion of revenue in the first half of 2026, up 5.60 percent from the comparable period. The same report lists earnings per share of EUR 0.24, versus EUR 0.20 in the first half of 2025, and net income of EUR 74.0 million, up 25.00 percent.
The earnings profile gives the price a concrete operating reference. Revenue growth was positive, while the stock remained below its yearly high, leaving the market valuation sensitive to execution across the company's construction and infrastructure activities.
Stock stays below yearly high
The 52-week range was EUR 3.91 to EUR 6.21 on October 14, 2026. At 4:58 p.m. CEST, the bid was EUR 4.78 and the ask was EUR 4.80, while volume stood at 924,661 shares, 40.34 percent below the average volume of 1,549,816 shares.
The live price was also 22.51 percent above the 52-week low. That placement matters because the stock was closer to the middle of its annual range than to the upper boundary, even with the positive move against the October 13 Euronext Lisbon close.
Valuation and company scale
Mota-Engil had a market capitalization of EUR 1.5 billion and a price-to-earnings ratio of 9.98 on October 14, 2026. The valuation sits alongside a first-half net profit of EUR 74.0 million, giving investors a direct link between the market value and the latest reported earnings.
Simply Wall St also lists net interest cover of 2.10 times as a major financial risk in its October 12, 2026 update. That counter-factor places the earnings improvement beside the group's financing burden rather than treating revenue growth as the only valuation input.
Comparison with peers
Mota-Engil: plus 1.05 percent, price-to-earnings ratio 9.98, market capitalization EUR 1.5 billion.
