Blackstone Inc. (ISIN US09260D1072) was trading at EUR 105.95 at Lang & Schwarz on October 26, 2026 at 11:30 a.m. CEST, 2.57 percent above the Xetra close of October 23, 2026 at EUR 103.30. The latest analyst move came from UBS, which raised its target from USD 116.00 to USD 118.00 on October 23, 2026, according to Markets Insider.
Third-quarter results reset the debate
Blackstone reported USD 3.06 billion in revenue for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026, down from USD 3.09 billion in the third quarter of 2025. Net income attributable to Blackstone reached USD 662.37 million, up from USD 624.92 million a year earlier, while diluted earnings per share rose to USD 0.83 from USD 0.80, according to MarketScreener.
The earnings mix explains the cautious tone behind the target changes. Distributable earnings reached USD 1.72 billion, or USD 1.32 per common share, while fee-related earnings stood at USD 1.57 billion, or USD 1.26 per share, for the quarter, according to TradingView. The USD 2.00 UBS target increase represents a 1.72 percent rise from the previous target, but the new target remains only USD 0.03 above the latest NYSE price of USD 117.97 shown for October 23, 2026.
Three events frame the stock
On October 8, 2026, Blackstone completed the acquisition of a 97.6 percent stake in Senio, according to MarketScreener. On October 22, 2026, the firm released third-quarter results with USD 63.30 billion of quarterly inflows, before UBS adjusted its target on October 23, 2026.
What dates matter next?
The next dated shareholder event is the November 2, 2026 ex-dividend date for a USD 1.12 quarterly dividend, listed by MarketScreener. The payment is scheduled for November 9, 2026, with shareholders of record on November 2, 2026, according to TradingView.
Stock price keeps the focus on execution
The combination of higher fee-related earnings and weaker exit-linked income leaves the stock sensitive to the pace of realizations. The latest euro quote puts Blackstone 2.57 percent above the prior Xetra reference, while the USD 117.97 NYSE price and USD 118.00 UBS target point to a narrow near-term valuation gap.
At Lang & Schwarz, Blackstone stock was trading at EUR 105.95 on October 26, 2026 at 11:30 a.m. CEST, 2.57 percent above the Xetra close of October 23, 2026 at EUR 103.30. The further course of trading is shown by the continuously updated real-time quote of Blackstone stock.
