Lacroix Group's Stock Doubles in a Year and Breaks Through Its €13.60 Resistance
Lacroix Group's stock is up 2.95% at €13.95 in mid-morning trading, against a CAC 40 down by 0.49%. The Nantes-based company's stock has doubled in value over twelve months and continues a bullish trend that started several weeks ago. This increase follows two press releases issued by the company.
Q1 Growth and Completed Refinancing
Lacroix Group published on Monday a quarterly revenue of 122.8 million euros, up 5.9% year-over-year. The growth primarily comes from the Environment business, boosted by non-recurring elements which the group expects to slow down in the remainder of the fiscal year. The core Electronics business saw a slight decline of 0.9%, due to a rebalancing of exposure to automotive markets. During the Q1 2026 release on May 11, 2026, the company confirmed all its financial targets and mentioned an expected return to growth in the Aerospace & Defense market. At the same time, Lacroix announced the establishment of an inaugural syndicated loan of 77.6 million euros, concluded with seven banks to refinance part of its debt and finance its investments. The next appointment: the semi-annual revenue, expected on July 23, 2026.
Stock Price Breaks Above the Upper Bollinger Band
At €13.95, the stock price is trading above the upper Bollinger Band set at €13.50, indicating an overbought configuration. The stock also breaks its €13.60 resistance and is now trading 6.9% above its 20-day moving average (€13.05) and 22.7% above its 200-day moving average (€11.37). The RSI at 60 remains in the neutral zone, which leaves room before a clear overheating signal. The performance is part of a strong underlying trend: +7.3% over the week and a doubling of the price over a year. The semi-annual publication on July 23, 2026 will be the next test of this momentum.
