Vicat shares reclaim their 20-day moving average and gain 2.5% ahead of earnings

A 2.37% rebound that brings the stock back above its MM20

The Vicat share gains 2.37% to €60.50 during the session, while the CAC 40 rises 1.19%.

The stock trades 3.17% above its MM20 (€58.64), which it had lost in early September, and is approaching resistance at €60.80. It remains, however, slightly below its MM50 (€60.82), by 0.53%, and clearly below its MM200 (€64.74), by 6.55%. This move follows a difficult start to October, when the stock had given up its €58.80 support on October 1, the day exclusive negotiations were announced to take over 48 Cemex concrete plants in the South-East. Today's rebound remains modest on a monthly scale: the monthly performance is -0.49%.

Half-year results revised upward and revenue expected on November 5

At the end of July, when the H1 2026 results were published (on July 29), the group raised its annual targets and aimed for growth of 7% to 9% at constant scope and exchange rates. It also cited among its risks the rise in energy costs, which is expected to materialise more fully in the second half.

The consensus of covering analysts values the stock at about 9.6 times earnings for the current fiscal year and 8.4 times those of the following year, with expected earnings per share growth of 13.5%. The next scheduled event is the publication of revenue for the first nine months, planned for November 5, 2026.
