Syensqo stock gains 1.60 percent as Q2 outlook rises

Syensqo stock gained 1.60 percent to last at EUR 79.45 on Euronext Brussels on September 28, 2026 at 5:35 p.m. CEST. The move followed a stronger operating picture in the second quarter, when Syensqo raised its full-year underlying EBITDA outlook to at least EUR 1.1 billion.

Q2 sales reached EUR 1.55 billion

According to Quartr in its Q2 2026 summary, net sales reached EUR 1.55 billion in the quarter ended June 30, 2026, up 4 to 5 percent year over year and 11 percent sequentially. Gross profit rose 7 percent year over year to EUR 528 million, lifting the gross margin by 100 basis points to 34 percent.

Underlying EBITDA was EUR 311 million, down 6 percent year over year but up 24 percent from the first quarter. The resulting 20 percent margin gives investors a mixed signal: sequential improvement is clear, while the annual comparison still reflects pressure on profitability.

Analysts see a narrow upside

According to Investing.com, Morgan Stanley raised its Syensqo price target from EUR 73.00 to EUR 80.00 on September 10, 2026, while keeping a Hold rating. JPMorgan set a EUR 100.00 target with a Buy rating on September 9, 2026, and Kepler Cheuvreux raised its target from EUR 58.00 to EUR 66.00 on August 25, 2026, while retaining a Sell rating.

The average 12-month analyst target was EUR 82.40, based on 15 analysts, with 7 Buy, 7 Hold and 1 Sell ratings. At EUR 79.45, the Morgan Stanley target stands 0.69 percent above the reference price, so the market is weighing the higher earnings outlook against the still uneven margin trend.
