Vale (ISIN US91912E1055) was trading at EUR 10.75 at Lang & Schwarz at 11:46 a.m. CEST on October 26, 2026. The latest analyst reset came from UBS, which lowered its target to USD 14.50 from USD 15 while retaining a Neutral rating on October 21, 2026, as reported by MarketScreener.
Analyst targets move lower
The UBS decision followed Deutsche Bank's October 16, 2026 cut of its target to USD 15 from USD 16.50, with a Hold rating. MarketScreener said the bank cited weaker expected margins and volumes ahead of the third-quarter report.
Vale's second-quarter results provide the operating baseline. Revenue was USD 10.24 billion and diluted earnings per share were USD 0.31 for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, according to the finance data record. A contemporaneous MarketBeat report cited USD 0.36 in quarterly earnings per share against USD 0.46 consensus and revenue of USD 10.24 billion. The differing earnings-per-share figures reflect separate reporting treatments and are not combined here.
Three dates shape the setup
On September 24, 2026, Vale began partial resumption of operations at the Fábrica mine, a development listed by MarketScreener. On October 16, Deutsche Bank cut its target from USD 16.50 to USD 15. On October 21, UBS reduced its target from USD 15 to USD 14.50.
What does the next report mean?
Vale's third-quarter results are scheduled for October 29, 2026, after the market close, and the investor webcast is set for October 30, 2026. The dates were filed by Vale in a Form 6-K and reproduced by FinancialFilings. The report will combine operational, sales and financial information in one performance report.
