What Wall Street Has Been Saying 🐂 Bullish Takeaways
JPMorgan has an Overweight rating and recently set its price target at €106, which sits above the current fair value estimate and signals confidence in BNP Paribas reaching the higher end of the Street range.
Keefe Bruyette moved to an Outperform rating with a €104 target, placing BNP Paribas closer to the upper bracket of recent targets and highlighting potential for execution to support that valuation.
RBC Capital and Citi both adjusted their targets by €6 on 6 February 2026, pointing to recalibrated models that still align with the more constructive end of analyst expectations.
🐻 Bearish Takeaways
Deutsche Bank maintains a Hold rating with a €96 target, which sits below several peers and closer to the lower band of current research, reflecting a more cautious stance on upside.
Citi also recently reduced its target by €1 in April 2026, a reminder that some analysts see limited room for multiple expansion without clearer progress on execution and growth drivers.
