UBS maintained its Buy rating and set a EUR 24.00 price target for Iberdrola on October 22, 2026, according to Business Insider. The target lies 8.89 percent above the EUR 22.04 price. Iberdrola was trading at EUR 22.04 at Lang & Schwarz on October 26, 2026 at 4:31 p.m. CEST, up 0.68 percent versus the Xetra close of October 23, 2026 at EUR 21.89.
Profit growth supports the case
Iberdrola reported net profit of EUR 5.80 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, up 10.00 percent from the comparable period. Adjusted net profit reached EUR 5.14 billion, an increase of 9.00 percent. The figures and the updated outlook were published by Iberdrola on October 21, 2026.
The company raised its full-year 2026 outlook for adjusted net profit growth to at least 10.00 percent, compared with its previous expectation of more than 8.00 percent. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization rose 7.00 percent to EUR 11.89 billion in the nine-month period.
Stock near its yearly high
The EUR 22.04 Lang & Schwarz price stood 0.14 percent below Iberdrola's 52-week high of EUR 22.07 and 29.65 percent above its EUR 17.00 low, as of October 26, 2026. The market capitalization was EUR 147.1 billion, while the price-to-earnings ratio was 21.19 on the same date.
The latest Xetra session before October 26, 2026 ended at EUR 21.89, with a reported volume of 11,116 shares on October 23, 2026. That close leaves the current German euro quotation just above the prior session level, while the UBS target implies a further 8.89 percent distance from the Lang & Schwarz price.
Valuation and investor dates
The nine-month figures make networks the central operating measure for Iberdrola. The company reported EUR 10.10 billion of total investment during the period, with 62.00 percent allocated to networks. It also reported EUR 56.00 billion of network assets and 64,881 gigawatt-hours of renewable generation through September 30, 2026.
For investors, the combination of a 10.00 percent adjusted profit-growth outlook and a EUR 24.00 UBS target provides the main valuation frame. The 21.19 price-to-earnings ratio and the 0.14 percent gap to the yearly high show that the stock is already trading close to its recent peak.
Price and target in perspective
Iberdrola combines a fresh earnings comparison with an analyst target that is 8.89 percent above the German euro quotation. The daily move remains below 1.00 percent, so the latest target and the nine-month profit trend carry more information than the limited session change.
