Pernod Ricard stock (ISIN FR0000120693) traded at around EUR 59.44 on Euronext Paris on September 18, 2026, leaving the French spirits group more than 30 percent below its 52-week high of EUR 90.54 and signaling a cautious market stance toward the shares.

Stock holds near multi-year lows

According to intraday data from Spanish portal Bolsamania on September 18, 2026, Pernod Ricard stock was quoted at EUR 59.44 on Euronext Paris at 17:55 local time, compared with a 52-week high of EUR 90.54 and a 52-week low of EUR 58.60, implying a decline of about 32.7 percent from the peak and a year-to-date performance of minus 17.8 percent.

Price data compiled by French portal Boursorama show that the stock closed at EUR 59.50 on September 18, 2026, after opening at EUR 59.74 and moving in a range between EUR 59.24 and EUR 59.98 with daily volume around 243,264 shares.

High dividend yield versus softer earnings expectations

Consensus estimates summarized by Boursorama as of September 18, 2026 indicate that analysts expect a dividend per share of EUR 4.70 for fiscal year 2025, 2026 and 2027, corresponding to an implied dividend yield of 6.80 percent on the current price level.

The same overview shows a consensus for net income per share of EUR 7.26 for fiscal year 2025, versus EUR 5.72 estimated for 2026 and EUR 5.77 for 2027, suggesting that the market anticipates a decline in earnings in 2026 compared with 2025 before a slight recovery in 2027.

Based on these projections, Boursorama reports a price-earnings ratio of 9.53 for 2025, rising to 12.09 for the 2026 estimate and 11.98 for 2027, indicating that the valuation multiple increases as expected earnings normalize downward from the 2025 level.

Analyst targets still imply upside from current levels

For investors looking at medium-term scenarios, the 3-month price objective compiled in the same consensus table on Boursorama stands at EUR 85.11, which represents a potential upside of 42.89 percent from the closing price of EUR 59.50 on September 18, 2026 if the target were to be reached.

The contrast between a depressed share price that is more than 30 percent below its 52-week high and a medium-term target implying more than 40 percent potential upside underlines how sentiment toward Pernod Ricard has weakened while analysts still see scope for recovery.

Stock level and market capitalization

According to the SBF 250 component overview on Bolsamania dated September 18, 2026, the quoted level of EUR 59.44 for Pernod Ricard corresponds to a market capitalization of about EUR 14.97 billion as of that date, reflecting the market value assigned to the group at its current depressed price point.

In the same table, the 52-week high of EUR 90.54 and the 52-week low of EUR 58.60 show that the stock is trading close to the bottom of its one-year range, a positioning that investors may interpret as pricing in weaker demand expectations and earnings risks already highlighted in recent sector commentary.

On the US over-the-counter market, data from StockAnalysis show the Pernod Ricard ADR (ticker PRNDY) recently quoted at USD 23.92, but for valuation and performance comparisons the primary reference remains the Euronext Paris listing in euros.
