Compagnie des Alpes Shares Surge 5.93% Midday After Major Contract
On November 25, 2025, Compagnie des Alpes announced that its subsidiary had won the new public service delegation of La Plagne for 25 years, propelling its share price to 21.45 euros this Wednesday at midday, up by 5.93% from the previous day's close. This increase occurred in a Parisian market also on the rise, with the CAC 40 gaining 0.47% at 8,063.55 points.
Current Share Performance
Compagnie des Alpes' share price stood at 21.45 euros at midday on Wednesday, November 26, 2025, marking a 5.93% increase from the previous day's closing price of 20.25 euros. Trading remains moderate with a capital exchange rate of 0.15%. Over the past week, the ski area and amusement park specialist has shown a remarkable performance of 8.66%, despite a decline of 7.94% over the last three months. Over the past year, the share has seen a significant increase of 44.35%, significantly outperforming the CAC 40 index, which has risen by 11.11% over the same period. This bullish movement follows the announcement of the renewal of the public service delegation of La Plagne, a contract that represents a cumulative turnover of five billion euros over its duration and nearly doubles the group's order book. La Plagne, which records more than 2.6 million skier days, is touted as the largest ski resort in the world. The new contract includes 500 million euros in investments, providing increased strategic visibility for the operator in the long term.
Technical Perspective of the Stock
From a technical standpoint, the stock is currently trading above its 50-day moving average, which is at 20.65 euros, a positive signal confirming the short-term bullish momentum. The price also remains well positioned above the 200-day moving average set at 19.21 euros, indicating a constructive underlying trend. The RSI indicator at 57 points to a neutral zone, neither overbought nor oversold, suggesting potential room for growth before reaching technical overheating levels. Breaking through the resistance threshold at 22.20 euros would constitute a major technical signal likely to fuel an upward acceleration movement. Meanwhile, the MACD displays an encouraging setup with a positive histogram at 0.06, resulting from a MACD line at -0.18 above its signal line at -0.24. This positive divergence suggests the beginning of a bullish momentum recovery, although both components remain in negative territory. The low one-month volatility of 8.81 and a very reduced beta of 0.05 characterize a stock relatively uncorrelated with market movements, thus offering a specific risk profile to investors.
Operational Context Remains Favorable
The operational context remains favorable for Compagnie des Alpes, which had already posted a record revenue of 1.397 billion euros for the fiscal year 2024/2025, growing by 12.8% year-on-year. The new public service delegation contract, lasting 25 years starting from June 2027, includes the development and operation of the ski area as well as the management of intra-station shuttles and the bobsleigh track. This contractual victory is of major strategic importance following the anticipated loss of the Tignes operation scheduled for 2026. Dominique Thillaud, CEO, emphasized that winning this iconic public service delegation was a strong strategic challenge to maintain the company's position as a major player in the mountain industry. The stock thus benefits from a positive contractual catalyst that significantly secures its business model in the medium and long term in a complex sector environment.
