Analyst projections of the future price of Vicat S.A. stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
First-half sales rose 10.8% and EBITDA 13.6% on a like-for-like basis, prompting Vicat to raise its 2026 growth targets for both to 7–9%. That gives the company a stronger earnings base and a higher near-term outlook. (GlobeNewswire)
Emerging markets, especially Africa, were key earnings drivers: Senegal’s new kiln improved production costs, while demand for aggregates benefited from major infrastructure projects. This adds a growth engine beyond Vicat’s mature European markets. (GlobeNewswire)
Vicat has agreed to pursue the acquisition of Cemex’s south-eastern France concrete and aggregates operations, which include 48 ready-mix plants and nine quarries. The company expects regional, commercial and logistics synergies with its cement business, though completion remains subject to approval. (Vicat)
Cost inflation may squeeze margins in the second half: first-half energy costs rose 11.6%, and Vicat expects higher energy costs to weigh more visibly on cement plants later in the year. Its raised targets also assume no significant worsening of the Middle East conflict. (GlobeNewswire)
The French residential market remains weak, with cement volumes slightly lower and no recovery yet despite better construction indicators. European EBITDA was also down 1.3% like-for-like in the first half. (GlobeNewswire)
The Cemex deal could slow balance-sheet repair: Vicat’s new leverage target is 1.3–1.5x for 2026–27, replacing its earlier ambition to reach 1.0x or less by the end of 2027. The acquisition therefore brings potential growth alongside a higher debt tolerance. (Vicat, GlobeNewswire)
