Investng.com -- J.P. Morgan has placed Auto1 Group SE (F:AG1G) on its Positive Catalyst Watch ahead of the company’s third-quarter 2025 results, scheduled for November 5.

J.P. Morgan noted that uncertainty surrounding the CFO transition has now been addressed with the appointment of Christian Wallentin to succeed Markus Boser, effective January 1, 2026.
The brokerage also flagged the company’s announced expansion of in-house production capacity in Italy, Austria, and the Netherlands to meet growing regional demand.
Following raised mid-term estimates,J.P. Morgan’s 2025-2027 adjusted EBITDA projections increased by 7%, 5%, and 7% respectively, placing the firm 10%, 11%, and 19% ahead of consensus for the same period.
Based on these revisions, J.P. Morgan raised its December 2026 price target for Auto1 to €40 from €35 while maintaining its “overweight” rating.
