Deutsche Lufthansa AG (ISIN DE0008232125) traded at EUR 7.68 on the Frankfurt market on September 22, 2026, up 1.21 percent from the previous close of EUR 7.59. The stock remains 24.9 percent below its 52-week high of EUR 10.22, while its 52-week low is EUR 6.74.

Revenue reaches EUR 11.14 billion

Lufthansa reported quarterly revenue of EUR 11.14 billion for Q2 FY26, while earnings were EUR 123 million for the same reporting period. The quarterly earnings figure was above the Q2 FY26 estimate of EUR 0.28 billion only in the source's displayed comparison framework, which also lists actual earnings of EUR 123 million; the differing units make a direct percentage comparison inappropriate.

The same market data show trailing twelve-month revenue of EUR 41.1 billion and trailing twelve-month earnings per share of EUR 0.56. These figures provide a valuation reference alongside the current share price, but they cover a different period from Q2 FY26.

War risk raises the operating pressure

According to Simply Wall St on September 22, 2026, Lufthansa shares had fallen 16.7 percent over the previous 90 days, although the one-year total shareholder return remained positive at 8.8 percent. The report identifies rising war risk costs as an additional pressure factor for the airline.

For investors, the contrast is material: the stock is down 16.7 percent over 90 days but still shows an 8.8 percent one-year total shareholder return. That spread makes the EUR 7.68 quotation and the 52-week range of EUR 6.74 to EUR 10.22 more informative than a single daily move.

Stock stays below yearly high

Lufthansa's market capitalization was EUR 9.234 billion on September 22, 2026, and trading volume stood at 5,200 shares at the quoted update. The stock's trailing price-to-earnings ratio was 13.72, based on the displayed trailing EPS of EUR 0.56.

The next earnings date shown in the market data is November 3, 2026. That date gives the market a defined checkpoint after the Q2 FY26 revenue of EUR 11.14 billion and earnings of EUR 123 million.
