Abbott Laboratories (ISIN US0028241000) was trading at EUR 93.45 at Lang & Schwarz on October 19, 2026, at 9:22 a.m. CEST, 0.64 percent above the Xetra close of October 16, 2026 at EUR 92.86. The company is scheduled to report third-quarter results before the market opens on October 21, 2026, with analysts expecting USD 1.42 in earnings per share and USD 12.99 billion in revenue, according to Zolmax.
October 21 is the next test
The estimate sets a clear benchmark for Abbott's next report. The projected USD 12.99 billion revenue would exceed the USD 11.37 billion reported for the same quarter a year earlier, while expected earnings per share of USD 1.42 compares with USD 1.30, according to MarketBeat. The figures make revenue execution and the earnings outlook the main tests for the medical-products group.
What does the estimate imply?
Abbott's second-quarter report provides the latest operating comparison. Revenue was USD 12.59 billion, up 13.00 percent year over year, and adjusted earnings per share of USD 1.31 exceeded the USD 1.28 consensus by USD 0.03, according to Zolmax. That prior quarter gives investors a recent reference point for judging whether the October report extends the growth pace.
Three dates and target changes
On October 2, 2026, Rothschild & Co Redburn raised its target from USD 119.00 to USD 127.00 and upgraded Abbott from neutral to buy, according to Zolmax. On October 7, 2026, Barclays began coverage with an overweight rating and a USD 120.00 target, the same report said. On October 21, 2026, Abbott is expected to publish third-quarter results before the market opens, followed by a conference call at 9:00 a.m. ET.
Upcoming reporting date
The next substantiated company date is October 21, 2026, for the third-quarter earnings release and the 9:00 a.m. ET conference call. The scheduled report gives the recent analyst targets a near-term operating checkpoint rather than a standalone valuation signal.
