Südzucker stock (ISIN DE0007297004) was trading at EUR 12.23 at Lang & Schwarz on October 8, 2026 at 10:37 a.m. CEST. On September 28, 2026, 4investors reported that mwb research had raised its price target from EUR 15.00 to EUR 17.00 while retaining a Buy rating.

mwb sees further recovery

The target increase followed preliminary second-quarter results for fiscal 2026/27. Operating EBITDA rose 81.00 percent to EUR 168.00 million, according to 4investors, with CropEnergies and Special Products identified as key contributors.

The analyst case also depends on sugar prices and cost control. 4investors said mwb expected revenue of EUR 8.35 billion in 2026, EUR 8.52 billion in 2027 and EUR 9.15 billion in 2028, while earnings per share were projected to turn from a EUR 1.92 loss in 2026 to EUR 0.65 in 2027.

Guidance improves, drought remains a risk

As Yahoo Finance reported on October 8, 2026, operating EBITDA reached EUR 303 million in the first half of fiscal 2026/27, up from EUR 189 million, while revenue was EUR 4.19 billion versus EUR 4.20 billion a year earlier. The result makes the lower end of the annual operating EBITDA outlook more important for valuation.

Südzucker now guides for operating EBITDA of EUR 540 million-EUR 680 million, compared with EUR 480 million-EUR 680 million previously. Revenue guidance also rose from EUR 8.1 billion-EUR 8.5 billion to EUR 8.3 billion-EUR 8.7 billion, but Yahoo Finance reported that drought had reduced expected sugar beet yields in the 2026 campaign.

Stock stays below the yearly high

At EUR 12.23, the share price was 9.87 percent below the 52-week high of EUR 13.57 and EUR 3.31 above the 52-week low of EUR 8.92, both as of October 8, 2026. Market capitalization stood at EUR 2.5 billion, while the Xetra close on October 7, 2026, was EUR 12.40.

Südzucker's investor-relations calendar lists the half-year financial report for October 8, 2026 and the third-quarter update for January 14, 2027, according to the Südzucker Group. For investors, the key tension is clear: the improved earnings floor is set against weaker beet yields and a stock price still below its yearly high.
