Verbio, a German biofuel producer, experienced significant stock volatility in October 2026. Initially, the company’s share price reached a six-month low despite reporting strong fiscal year 2025/26 results, including an 18% revenue increase to €1.87 billion. This decline was attributed to EBITDA guidance for the 2026/27 fiscal year that fell below market expectations.

However, the stock later saw a significant surge following an upgrade from Jefferies, which moved its rating from ‘Hold’ to ‘Buy’ and raised its price target to €42. Analysts cited improved profit potential and higher margins in biodiesel production as key drivers. This positive momentum was met with a more cautious outlook from Deutsche Bank Research, which lowered its price target to €40, citing a recent 25% decline in EBITDA and anticipated weakness in bioethanol prices.
