A technical position strengthening above medium and long-term moving averages
Galp Energia share rises 1.2% to €21.98, compared to €21.72 at the last close. It is trading near its 20-day moving average (€21.96) and remains above the 50-day MA (€21.13, a gap of 4%) as well as the 200-day MA (€19.16, a gap of nearly 15%).

An analyst rating raised to €28 and quarterly results expected on October 12
On the analyst side, Barclays raised its price target on October 4 from €23 to €28, which leaves a potential of approximately 27% compared to the current price. The share trades at approximately 9.8 times the earnings of the current fiscal year, according to the consensus of surveyed analysts. As a reminder, during the first-half results published on July 27, management cited the high volatility of oil and gas markets among the risks, and the ramp-up of the Bacalhau field in Brazil (+17% production) among the opportunities. The next meeting is scheduled for October 12, with the publication of third-quarter 2026 revenue.
