Edenred Shares Decline Despite Barclays' Target Increase to €22
Mid-afternoon on Wednesday, April 29, 2026, Edenred's stock price is at €21.19, down 2.26% from the previous day's close. This movement follows a target price increase by Barclays, even as the stock maintains a three-month gain of 22.34%. The annual general meeting is scheduled for next week, May 7.
Barclays Raises Target to €22, Limited Upside Potential
Barclays has increased its target price on Edenred from €21 to €22, accompanying the adjustment with a market-weight recommendation. Based on the current session price of €21.19, this new target offers a theoretical appreciation potential of about 3.8%. This revision follows a favorable stock market sequence for the professional payment solutions specialist, which saw a 4.3% increase on April 23 after the publication of its quarterly revenue, followed by a 2.7% increase the next session. The company's financial calendar is now focused on the upcoming 2026 general assembly scheduled for May 7.
