Spire stock reports a USD 0.26 adjusted Q3 loss
Published on 10/06/2026 at 10:37 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSSpire stock (ISIN US84857L1017) closed at USD 77.41 on the NYSE on October 5, 2026, down 0.17 percent from the prior close. The utility reported USD 420.2 million in fiscal third-quarter revenue on August 5, 2026, above the USD 394.6 million estimate cited by MarketScreener.
Revenue beats the estimate
The fiscal Q3 adjusted loss was USD 0.26 per share, while the company reaffirmed its fiscal 2026 adjusted EPS guidance of USD 3.90-4.10. The same August 5, 2026 earnings coverage also listed fiscal 2027 adjusted EPS guidance of USD 5.40-5.60, compared with a FactSet estimate of USD 5.49, according to MarketScreener.
The revenue comparison is the clearest positive operating signal: USD 420.2 million exceeded the estimate by USD 25.6 million, or 6.5 percent. That result stands against the quarterly loss and makes the guidance range more important than the headline revenue beat.
Guidance sets the next checkpoint
Spire operates regulated gas utilities alongside gas marketing and midstream activities. Its latest fiscal Q3 reporting period ended June 30, 2026, and the company said its regulated utility operations remained central to its strategy, according to MarketScreener. The fiscal year ends in September, so the next full-year result will test whether the USD 3.90-4.10 adjusted EPS range was achieved.
Analysts see upside to USD 92.78
The analyst consensus was Outperform from 10 analysts, with an average target price of USD 92.78, according to MarketScreener. The average target lies 19.9 percent above the October 5 closing price of USD 77.41, giving the consensus a materially more constructive stance than the latest session move.
