RBC lifts target to GBp 275

Morningstar reported on September 7, 2026 that RBC raised its B&M European Value Retail target to GBp 275.00 from GBp 240.00 and kept an outperform recommendation. The new target is 7.34 percent above the primary-exchange price of GBp 256.20 reported by the finance quote at 10:58 a.m. BST on October 2, 2026.

The target revision gives the stock a clear comparison point, while the insider purchases provide a separate signal from company management. The two developments differ in weight: the RBC view is an external valuation judgment, whereas the director transactions show personal buying at lower sterling prices.
