Aéroports de Paris

The Aéroports de Paris share climbed about 2.2% after JPMorgan raised its rating from "Neutral" to "Overweight" and lifted the target price from €115 to €130. The bank sees the new regulatory framework for 2027–2034 as providing protection against inflation and higher taxes and more revenue certainty, which justifies a revaluation of the stock. The previous roughly 17% discount versus European airport operators should narrow as a result, although weaker traffic due to geopolitical tensions and international holdings have recently weighed on the stock. The submission of the economic regulation proposal in early September and expected ART guidelines turn the regulatory timeline from an uncertainty factor into a near-term positive driver. » More on de.investing.com

Aéroports de Paris shares rose about 2.3% to €115.05 after Deutsche Bank upgraded them from “hold” to “buy” and set a new price target of €130. The bank cites clearer regulatory frameworks for 2027–2034 that allow higher airport fees and provide long‑term investment security. It also points to strong half‑year results, including net profit surging to €312 million, which supports the upward outlook. The stock is now notably closer to its 52‑week high of €133.90 and reflects company‑specific news rather than broader market movements. » More on de.investing.com

Aeroports de Paris reported adjusted EBITDA of €1.015bn in the first half, beating the analysts’ consensus of around €967m, and net profit tripled year-on-year. Management cut its full-year adjusted EBITDA guidance to €2.30–2.35bn and trimmed expected traffic growth in Paris to about 0.5% due to uncertainties from the Middle East conflict. The dividend policy — a 60% payout ratio with a floor of €3 per share — remains in place, and cost savings of €40–60m are expected to take effect mainly in the second half. The strong results drove the share up roughly 10.8%, bringing it closer to the 52-week high. » More on de.investing.com
