Cemex (MXP225611567) stock was priced at EUR 0.86 at Lang & Schwarz on October 12, 2026 at 11:52 a.m. CEST. Markets Insider reported on October 9, 2026 that RBC Capital had cut its target from USD 13.50 to USD 13.25 and kept a Sector Perform rating.

Three dated signals shape Cemex

On July 23, 2026, Cemex reported second-quarter sales of USD 4.59 billion and operating EBITDA of USD 1.02 billion, up 24.00 percent year over year, according to Rio Times.

On October 1, 2026, Vicat announced exclusive negotiations for Cemex's South-Eastern France operations, covering 48 ready-mix concrete plants and 9 aggregate quarries. The proposed transaction remains subject to regulatory approval and is expected before December 31, 2026.

RBC's October 9 target change is the latest of the three signals. Its cited concerns included cost inflation, geopolitical uncertainty, unusual weather and pressure on fiscal 2026 guidance, giving the target cut a concrete operating backdrop.

What dates matter for the next report?

Cemex's investor-relations page lists its next earnings webcast for October 26, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. ET and the fourth-quarter webcast for February 18, 2027 at 11:00 a.m. ET, according to Cemex. The October event will test whether the 16.00 percent to 17.00 percent full-year operating EBITDA growth outlook remains credible after the second-quarter increase of 24.00 percent.

French asset sale adds a portfolio test

The French negotiations show Cemex continuing to reshape its asset base while protecting its wider growth plan. The operating comparison is material: second-quarter sales rose to USD 4.59 billion, while the company also maintained a focus on construction materials, ready-mix concrete and aggregates across more than 50 countries, according to its investor-relations page.
