LANXESS AG Receives "Buy" Recommendation from Parmantier & Cie.

On October 6, 2026, Parmantier & Cie. GmbH released a research document providing an analytical framework for institutional investors assessing the German chemicals sector. Within this report, LANXESS AG received a "Buy" recommendation with a target price of EUR 21.00, anticipated over a six-month period.

The report, titled “European Chemicals: The 2027 Cycle,” spans 76 pages and evaluates key themes influencing the sector. It highlights the potential for the 2027 cycle to be driven more by restructuring efforts, operating leverage, and strategic consolidation than by mere industrial recovery.

Several important themes are explored, including energy and production competitiveness, Chinese capacity and export pressure, and the impacts of portfolio separation and financial restructuring. The report emphasizes the complexity of the sector, which cannot be captured by simple earnings extrapolation.
