ID Logistics Group (ENXTPA:IDL) is back on investor radars after its latest share price move, with the stock closing at €326. That shift invites a closer look at how the logistics specialist is currently valued.
Over the past week ID Logistics Group has put together a 7-day share price return of 3.99% and a 1-month share price gain of 2.03%. However, the 90-day share price return is down 5.64% and the year-to-date share price performance has declined 19.21%, while the 3-year total shareholder return of 31.72% points to stronger momentum over a longer horizon.

ID Logistics Group now trades well below both analyst targets and one intrinsic value estimate. The recent rebound throws that gap into sharper relief and raises a key question: Does the current price capture fair worth or signal a valuation disconnect?
On simple earnings math, ID Logistics Group carries a rich tag. The stock trades on a P/E of 31.8x, which is being applied to a share price of €326 that has declined 19.21% year to date and 13.76% over the past twelve months.
The P/E ratio compares what investors pay today for each euro of current earnings. For a contract logistics specialist such as ID Logistics Group, this gauge often reflects how the market weighs recent profit trends, the consistency of cash generation, and the perceived resilience of its €4.06b revenue base across sectors like FMCG, e-commerce, healthcare, and retail.
IDL's earnings profile gives that high multiple some context. Net income of €67.03m on €4,059.91m of revenue implies a thin 1.7% net margin, and that margin is described as lower than the prior year. Even so, the business reports high quality earnings, 14.4% annual profit growth over five years, and 14.8% earnings growth over the past year, which exceeded the Logistics industry result that declined 9.6%. Earnings are also forecast to grow 19.6% per year, with revenue expected to advance 8.8% annually, both ahead of the French market benchmarks referenced in the data. That mix of slim margins and solid growth means the market may be paying up for expansion and execution rather than current profitability.
The comparison set points to stretch. ID Logistics Group is described as expensive on a 31.8x P/E relative to the European Logistics industry average of 21.5x and a peer average of 15.5x. The current ratio is also roughly double an estimated fair P/E of 16x that our data suggests the market could move towards if sentiment or expectations cool.

Still, ID Logistics Group relies on low net margins and concentrated trucking exposure, so any hit to pricing or volumes could pressure that premium P/E story.
