What recent analyst notes say
Analyst coverage on Air Liquide remains constructive, with several banks reiterating positive views in June 2026. Goldman Sachs kept its rating at Buy while cutting the price target to 179 euros in an update reported on June 9. Deutsche Bank also reaffirmed a Buy stance, trimming its target to 190 euros in a June 18 note, according to Marketscreener’s overview of broker actions.
These target revisions follow solid first-quarter 2026 sales figures disclosed in late April, which underpin a generally supportive consensus. MarketScreener’s analyst summary shows that most covering brokers rate the Air Liquide stock Buy or equivalent, with average targets still above the current share price, signalling room for upside in their models.
How the consensus and valuation look
Consensus data compiled by MarketScreener point to a cluster of price targets for Air Liquide in the high 170s to low 190s euros. At a spot price near 165.70 euros for AI.PA, as observed on Euronext Paris, the shares trade at a discount to that range. This gap reflects a cautious stance from analysts, who have recently reduced targets while keeping positive ratings.
Valuation metrics such as the price-to-earnings ratio and enterprise value to EBITDA remain in line with European industrial gas peers like Linde and Air Products, according to comparative data cited in analyst commentary. The stock’s defensive profile and exposure to healthcare and electronics gases feature prominently in research notes by Goldman Sachs and Deutsche Bank.
