Qiagen stock (ISIN NL0015002SN0) was trading at EUR 42.48 at Lang & Schwarz on October 20, 2026 at 5:10 p.m. CEST, 3.01 percent above the Xetra close of October 19, 2026 at EUR 41.24. The latest analyst move came from JPMorgan, which raised its target from USD 50.00 to USD 55.00 on October 14, 2026, according to MarketBeat.
JPMorgan lifts its target
JPMorgan kept an Overweight rating alongside the higher USD 55.00 target. The target is 29.03 percent above the USD 42.63 equivalent price level implied by the current euro quote and the finance-market currency relationship is not used for a direct valuation comparison here; the analyst target therefore remains a separate USD reference.
MarketBeat reported that Qiagen's second-quarter revenue reached USD 535.04 million, compared with USD 527.50 million expected. That USD 7.54 million difference gives the target story an operating backdrop rather than leaving it as a purely valuation-driven call.
Stock position after 3.01 percent gain
The stock's Xetra price range on October 20, 2026 ran from EUR 41.50 to EUR 41.82, with a close of EUR 41.64 reported for the session. The Lang & Schwarz quote stood above that level later in the day, while the 52-week range in the home-market quote was EUR 27.56 to EUR 47.60. At EUR 42.48, the stock was 10.76 percent below its 52-week high.
Qiagen's market capitalization was EUR 8.7 billion and its price-to-earnings ratio was 24.06 on October 20, 2026. The company generated USD 200.69 million in operating cash flow during the second quarter of 2026, while total assets stood at USD 5.97 billion at June 30, 2026.

Qiagen stock after the target increase
