Sopra Steria Shares Drop 2.49% to €133.20 After Late April Rebound
Sopra Steria's stock slips in early trading this Tuesday, in a downward trending Parisian market. The share falls 2.49% to €133.20, ranking among the top five declines in the SBF 120. The CAC 40, meanwhile, loses 0.62% during the session.
A Relapse After the Spectacular Late April Rebound
Sopra Steria ranks among the top five declines in the SBF 120, at 116th out of 120. The decline follows a very favorable sequence: the stock had soared by 16% on April 29 after a return to organic growth in Q1 2026 (revenue of €1.46 billion, up 3.4%), and continued its rise to reach €144.80 on May 6. Over three months, the performance remains positive at 1.52%, but the stock still shows a decline of nearly 30% over one year. Notably, selling pressure remains visible among hedge funds: net short positions reported to the AMF have reached 3.07% of the capital, up 1.25 points over thirty days, with AKO Capital and Marble Bar Asset Management leading.

Despite the day's decline, the price remains above the MM20 (€128.88) and MM50 (€125.58), indicating the strength of the rebound initiated in late April. However, the stock is still below its 200-day moving average (€143.48), which represents a resistance still about 7% away. The RSI at 59 remains neutral. Regarding valuation, the consensus of analysts based on the expected EPS values the stock at about 7.5 times the earnings of the current fiscal year, compared to a Technology sector average close to 24 times. The expected EPS growth from one fiscal year to the next is set at 7.2%. The next key date on the calendar is the annual general meeting of shareholders, scheduled for May 20, 2026.
