Estée Lauder (EL) stock surged after Deutsche Bank upgraded it from “Hold” to “Buy,” citing international expansion success and a diversified product portfolio. Despite recent challenges, the company’s stock has rebounded 21% in the past month, hinting at a potential turnaround.

In fiscal 2025 Q3, Estée Lauder reported a 9.9% revenue decline to $3.55 billion, beating analyst expectations. Skincare sales fell 12%, impacted by Asia’s travel retail struggles. Looking ahead, Q4 EPS is forecasted to drop 92%, but fiscal year 2026 could see a 46% increase to $2.14.

Deutsche Bank is optimistic, setting a $95 price target for EL stock based on international strategy and cash flow potential. While the majority of analysts rate the stock a “Hold,” a potential upside of nearly 30% to $100 is possible if bullish trends continue.
