LPKF Laser & Electronics stock was trading at EUR 11.10 at Lang & Schwarz on October 22, 2026 at 1:00 p.m. CEST, down 3.48 percent versus the Xetra close of October 21, 2026 at EUR 11.50. The central company event remains LPKF's September 30 guidance cut, which reduced the 2026 revenue outlook to EUR 93 million to EUR 100 million, according to MarketScreener.
Delayed orders reshape 2026
The revised outlook followed delays to a major solar contract and to orders tied to LPKF's advanced-packaging business. The company said the earlier revenue range of EUR 105 million to EUR 120 million was no longer achievable, while the new range puts the full-year revenue floor EUR 12 million below the former floor, according to MarketScreener. The adjusted EBIT margin guidance also moved into a range of minus 7.00 percent to minus 2.50 percent.
What does the analyst target imply?
Montega maintained a Buy rating and a EUR 22.00 12-month price target on October 1, 2026, despite lowering its 2026 revenue estimate from EUR 105 million to EUR 98.00 million. The research note from EQS News said the delayed solar and advanced-packaging revenue was expected to shift into 2027. The target is EUR 10.90 above the Lang & Schwarz price.
Three dates define the story
On September 23, 2026, MarketScreener listed an LPKF notice saying an Asian advanced-semiconductor-packaging manufacturer had selected the company's glass-processing equipment for production ramp-up. On September 30, 2026, LPKF lowered its revenue guidance to EUR 93 million to EUR 100 million, as reported by MarketScreener. On October 1, 2026, Montega set its EUR 22.00 target, according to EQS News.
The next reporting dates
The next scheduled event is the third-quarter financial report on October 29, 2026 at 8:00 a.m., followed by the annual financial report on March 24, 2027, according to the LPKF investor-relations calendar. The third-quarter report will show whether delayed orders began converting into revenue or stayed deferred.
Stock remains below the target
LPKF's market capitalization was EUR 273.1 million as of October 22, 2026, while its 52-week range was EUR 5.35 to EUR 30.80. The current price therefore sits EUR 19.70 below the 52-week high, keeping the guidance revision and order timing central to the investment case.
