ABM Industries Incorporated (US0009571003) stock traded at USD 50.65 on September 16, 2026, after a 0.2 percent gain, while third-quarter fiscal 2026 adjusted EPS reached USD 1.04 and revenue climbed to USD 2.317 billion.

Q3 figures set the tone

According to ScanX, ABM said adjusted EPS rose 27 percent year over year to USD 1.04 in Q3 FY26, beating the USD 1.01 estimate on September 16, 2026. The same report said revenue increased 4.2 percent to USD 2.317 billion, while adjusted EBITDA climbed 11 percent to USD 139.6 million.

The company also narrowed fiscal 2026 adjusted EPS guidance to USD 3.95 to USD 4.10 from USD 3.85 to USD 4.15, and ScanX said the analyst estimate stood at USD 3.98. That gives investors a clear comparison point: the midpoint of guidance is USD 4.025, slightly above the consensus figure.

Analysts lifted targets

According to ScanX, Freedom Capital Markets raised its price target to USD 58 from USD 55 and Baird raised its target to USD 53 from USD 48 after the results. The same report tied the changes to the Q3 beat and the narrower fiscal 2026 outlook.

For investors, the mix matters: 2.1 percent organic growth, USD 128.4 million in free cash flow and USD 1.8 billion in debt show that the quarter was not only an earnings beat but also a balance-sheet and cash-flow story.
