Vienna Insurance lifted its 2026 pre-tax profit outlook to EUR 1.35 billion-EUR 1.40 billion on October 15, 2026, according to Deutsche Boerse. The range includes the expected contribution from NÜRNBERGER and exceeds the previous EUR 1.25 billion-EUR 1.30 billion range. On October 7, 2026, Oddo BHF raised its target from EUR 62.00 to EUR 68.00 while keeping a Neutral rating, as reported by Boerse Social. At EUR 69.40, the Lang & Schwarz price is 2.06 percent above that target.
Three dates show the buildup
On September 22, 2026, Vienna Insurance agreed to acquire a 25 percent stake in Dolphin Technologies, according to MarketScreener. On August 26, 2026, first-half pre-tax profit reached EUR 641.5 million, up 20.7 percent, while premiums rose 5.4 percent to EUR 9.0 billion, according to Quartr.
On October 15, 2026, the company raised its full-year range to EUR 1.35 billion-EUR 1.40 billion. The sequence points to an earnings story supported by both underlying growth and the enlarged group perimeter.
What comes next for earnings?
Vienna Insurance plans to publish its update for the first three quarters of 2026 on November 26, 2026, according to Deutsche Boerse. The next report will provide the first broader test of whether the new profit range is tracking above the old ceiling of EUR 1.30 billion. Oddo BHF's October 7 target of EUR 68.00 sits below the current euro quote, leaving the outlook upgrade and the November figures as the clearest near-term reference points.
