- Jefferies forecast third-quarter EBITDA of EUR 175.00 million, 4.00 percent below consensus.
- Solvay stock was at EUR 24.92 at Lang & Schwarz on October 12, 2026, versus the EUR 24.98 Xetra close.

Solvay (ISIN BE0003470755) was trading at EUR 24.92 at Lang & Schwarz on October 12, 2026 at 9:53 a.m. CEST. The company had reported on October 1 that Citigroup's holding had crossed the 3.00 percent threshold, reaching 3.09 percent on September 24, 2026, according to Solvay.
Citigroup stake reaches 3.09 percent
The notification listed 0.43 percent in voting rights and 2.66 percent in equivalent financial instruments. The combined position therefore stood at 3.09 percent, based on a denominator of 105,876,416 shares.
For investors, the filing changes the ownership picture but does not alter Solvay's operating outlook. The next material test remains the company's third-quarter report, where production and cash generation are central to the earnings discussion.
Jefferies sees EBITDA pressure
According to MarketScreener on September 21, 2026, Jefferies analyst Helena Xu maintained an Underperform rating and a EUR 20.00 price target. Xu forecast third-quarter 2026 EBITDA of EUR 175.00 million, 4.00 percent below analyst consensus, and full-year EBITDA of EUR 760.00 million, 2.00 percent below consensus.
The comparison matters because Solvay's 2026 underlying EBITDA outlook is EUR 770.00 million to EUR 850.00 million. Jefferies' estimate sits EUR 10.00 million below the lower end of that range, while the report also cited pressure in soda ash and uncertainty around the restart of peroxide operations in Saudi Arabia.
Results date gives the next marker
MFN lists November 4, 2026 as Solvay's third-quarter reporting date. The date gives the ownership filing a clear operating follow-up, because the market will have new evidence on whether the company can remain within its EBITDA guidance range.
Solvay's market capitalization was EUR 2.6 billion as of October 12, 2026. Its 52-week range was EUR 23.54 to EUR 29.86, placing the current Lang & Schwarz price EUR 1.38 above the low and EUR 4.94 below the high.
Solvay stock stays near yearly low
At EUR 24.92, Solvay stock was EUR 0.06, or 0.24 percent, below the Xetra close of October 9, 2026 at EUR 24.98. The price was in trading at Lang & Schwarz, while the quantified comparison with the Xetra close keeps the daily move separate from the Euronext Brussels listing.
