Analysts Predicting Fresh Numbers for Airbus
Airbus, the European aerospace giant (WKN: 938914), continues to garner positive attention from analysts, with a Moderate Buy rating average and a robust aircraft backlog of 8,726 orders[1]. In a recent development, RBC Capital Markets raised its price target for Airbus stock to €200, while maintaining an "Outperform" rating[1].
Out of 27 analysts polled by Bloomberg, a significant 19 recommend buying Airbus stock[2]. This positive consensus is reflected in the ratings, with two hold ratings, two buy ratings, and one strong buy rating[2][3].
Morningstar provides a fair value estimate of approximately €544 for Airbus, indicating a long-term upside[4]. However, shares are currently considered fully valued at around €163.62, implying a significant premium relative to current trading prices[4].
Recent trading data shows that Airbus shares hit a new 12-month high, trading around $54.61 (OTC market, EADSY ticker), supported by positive analyst upgrades earlier in 2025[2]. Despite a downgrade by Citigroup from strong buy to hold in June 2025, reflecting some divergence among analysts[2], Airbus' stock has regained momentum since early August and is approaching the record high again.
Chloe Lemarie from Jefferies maintains a "Buy" rating for Airbus with a price target of €225. Earlier this week, Chloe Lemarie named Airbus her "top pick" in the civil aviation sector[2]. Delivery numbers for Airbus were in line with Chloe Lemarie's expectations[2].
However, it's important to note that Airbus' stock is not without risks. Supply chain bottlenecks and geopolitical tensions remain potential threats[1][4]. A recommended stop-loss for Airbus shareholders is set at €145.00 to protect their position[4].
In summary, Airbus stock is viewed with moderate optimism by analysts, with buy and outperform ratings prevailing. Price targets range notably from about €163 currently up to around €200 by RBC, with Morningstar’s higher valuation representing a more long-term fundamental outlook[1][2][4]. Despite challenges, Airbus' stock has gained 15% in recent months, making it the seventh-best performer in the DAX over the past three months[4].
