Edenred shares surge 46% over one year and dominate the SBF 120
In a session favorable to European markets, Edenred posts one of the best performances on the SBF 120, bringing its monthly gain to over 2% and consolidating a spectacular quarterly rebound. The share of the employee benefits specialist, however, cedes slightly ground relative to its short-term moving average, amid an awaited decision from the Federal Reserve.
A gain of 2.24% at close that fits into a quarterly rebound of nearly 39%
Edenred closes at €29.20, up 2.24% compared to the previous day (€28.56), ranking among the strongest gains on the SBF 120 at market close today. This movement is part of a particularly pronounced quarterly dynamic: the share shows +38.78% over three months, representing one of the sharpest rebounds among index values. Over one year, performance reaches +46.37%, confirming that the recovery phase of the share, initiated at the beginning of the year, has gained momentum.
The session unfolded in a globally favorable market context: the CAC 40 advanced 0.62% at close and the SBF 120 by 0.65%, while the VIX retreated slightly to 16.88 points. As background context, the Fed is widely expected this Wednesday to raise its key rate by 25 basis points, a prospect weighing on global financing conditions, but which did not dampen buying on Edenred today. When publishing H1 2026 results (July 23, 2026), the group had raised its EBITDA forecasts to €1,250 million for the year, displaying confidence in its trajectory despite expected effects of new regulations on meal vouchers in Italy and Brazil.
A technical configuration showing a share slightly below its 20-day MA but well anchored above its longer-term averages
On the price dynamics front, the share stands at €29.20, slightly below its 20-day moving average at €29.38 (gap of -0.61%), reflecting a short-term resistance to overcome. On the other hand, the share maintains a comfortable gap above its 50-day MA at €27.92 (+4.58%) and sits well beyond the 200-day MA at €21.67 (gap of +34.75%), confirming the strength of the medium and long-term bullish movement. The RSI at 49 remains in neutral territory, without overbought or oversold signals, leaving room for movement in both directions.
Resistance at €30.53 constitutes the next level to monitor, while support at €27.71 offers a floor in case of reversal. Furthermore, the appointment of Fabrizio Ruggiero to the head of Employee Benefits, effective from September 28, 2026, introduces a governance change to follow in this key segment of the group. Resistance at €30.53 represents the next test to confirm the continuation of the recovery initiated since the beginning of the year.
