Gerresheimer stock (ISIN DE000A0LD6E6) was trading at EUR 32.38 at Lang & Schwarz on October 23, 2026, up 1.19 percent versus the Xetra close of October 22, 2026 at EUR 32.00. The latest company event was its improved EcoVadis score, which rose from 78 in 2025 to 82 on October 14, 2026, according to MarketScreener.
Three milestones shape the recovery
Gerresheimer's recent chronology shows a portfolio reshaping alongside operational improvement. On July 29, 2026, the company agreed to sell Centor and its Primary Packaging Plastics business for a combined enterprise value of EUR 1.5 billion, as reported by Finanzen.ch. On September 30, 2026, preliminary second-quarter revenue reached EUR 578 million and adjusted EBITDA EUR 102 million, according to Gerresheimer. On October 14, 2026, the EcoVadis score reached 82 out of 100.
What changes after the portfolio sale?
The key financial issue is leverage. Gerresheimer said the Centor proceeds would support debt reduction, while the combined transactions carry an enterprise value of EUR 1.5 billion. The Primary Packaging Plastics sale is expected in the first half of 2027, creating a second step toward a smaller portfolio and a lower debt burden, according to Finanzen.ch.
What dates matter next?
The investor-relations calendar lists the half-year report for November 2026 and the third-quarter statement for December 2026. The company also expects adjusted EBITDA margin of 17 percent to 18 percent for 2026, with organic revenue guidance in the lower half of the EUR 2.3 billion to EUR 2.4 billion range, according to Gerresheimer. Jefferies maintained a Hold rating and a EUR 26.80 price target on September 30, 2026, according to Markets Insider.
Stock trades above the Xetra close
The current quotation puts the stock 1.19 percent above its October 22, 2026 Xetra close. That move keeps the market focused on whether portfolio proceeds and the second-quarter recovery can improve the balance sheet as planned. The stock was trading at EUR 32.38 at Lang & Schwarz on October 23, 2026 at 10:46 a.m. CEST, 1.19 percent above the Xetra close of October 22, 2026 at EUR 32.00.
