Hochtief stock (ISIN DE0006070006) was quoted at EUR 398.20 on September 21, 2026, up 0.7 percent on the day and 18.2 percent since the start of the year, according to a European market overview at 09:27:46 Central European Time.

Stock extends year-to-date gains

As a European equity snapshot from September 21, 2026 shows, Hochtief shares traded at EUR 398.20 with a daily gain of 0.7 percent and a year-to-date performance of 18.2 percent, putting the stock ahead of many peers in the sector.

In the same period, another real-time quote overview on September 20, 2026 reported Hochtief around EUR 396.00, implying that the stock has added roughly EUR 2.20 in just one trading day and continues to trend upward within its recent range.

Recent 2026 results support the valuation

According to Hochtief’s own investor-relations information for its latest 2026 reporting period, the group generated revenue in the low double-digit billion-euro range in the most recent half year of 2026, with operating earnings clearly positive and a margin that remained within the mid-single-digit percent band for the period.

In that most recent half-year report for 2026, Hochtief also confirmed that net profit improved compared with the prior year’s comparable period, with earnings growth in the high single-digit percent range, while maintaining its guidance for full-year 2026 revenue and profitability.

Analyst views and risk factors

Recent analyst commentary in mid-September 2026 indicates that coverage houses generally see Hochtief stock as supported by a strong order backlog and infrastructure spending, with most price targets clustered around the current trading range and implying moderate upside from EUR 398.20.

At the same time, analysts highlight that rising financing costs and potential delays in large projects remain key risks for Hochtief in 2026, meaning that execution on major contracts and disciplined cost control will be crucial for sustaining the current earnings trajectory.

Closing price and investor takeaway

Hochtief stock thus remains near the EUR 400 mark as of September 21, 2026 on its home market in Germany, with a solid double-digit year-to-date gain backed by improved 2026 profitability and a robust project pipeline rather than speculative momentum.
