McCormick stock nears a 52-week low ahead of earnings

McCormick stock closed at USD 48.72 on the New York Stock Exchange on September 18, 2026, while the shares were down 28.47 percent year to date. The next earnings checkpoint is scheduled for October 1, 2026, according to MarketBeat.

Stock remains under pressure

The September 18 closing price was 5.07 percent below the level at the start of 2026, according to Ad-hoc News. That comparison is more relevant than a single session move because it shows the scale of the repricing during 2026.

The same September 18 market snapshot placed McCormick's market capitalization in the mid single-digit billion USD range. The stock was also trading closer to its 52-week low than to its recent high, increasing the importance of the next report and management guidance.

October 1 is the next checkpoint

McCormick is scheduled to host its third-quarter 2026 earnings conference call on October 1, 2026, at 8:00 a.m. Eastern Time, according to MarketBeat. Because the call concerns Q3 2026, revenue, earnings and updated guidance will provide the next period-specific operating evidence for the company.

That timing gives the October report a clear numerical test: investors can compare the new quarter with the prior reported period and assess whether the 2026 decline in the share price is matched by weaker operating figures. The September 18 price of USD 48.72 provides the market baseline for that assessment.

Price baseline before results

McCormick stock closed at USD 48.72 on the NYSE on September 18, 2026. The year-to-date decline of 28.47 percent and the 5.07 percent fall from the start-of-year level describe two separate reference points from the same market update.
