Q: How would we expect investors to react?

A: At 15.5x 2027e PE, flatexDEGIRO trades above its historical trading range, but at a

18% discount to peers. We expect the shares to respond positively due to upgraded

guidance, reduced CAC, and the 14% EBITDA beat driven by better-than-expected NII,

other operating income, and lower expenses. flatexDEGIRO will host a conference call to

discuss its Q2:26 results on Thursday, 23 July, at 9:00am UKT/ 10:00am CEST (link).
