Autodesk stock (ISIN US0527691069) closed at USD 212.00 on Nasdaq on October 2, 2026, up 0.33 percent from the prior close. The latest operating update showed fiscal 2027 second-quarter revenue of USD 2.05 billion, a 16.1 percent year-over-year increase, keeping growth at the center of the investment case.
Revenue growth sets the tone
MarketBeat reported on October 2, 2026, that Autodesk delivered quarterly revenue of USD 2.05 billion against a consensus estimate of USD 2.01 billion. The same report put quarterly earnings per share at USD 3.30 versus a USD 3.12 consensus estimate, although the finance statement data for the period show consolidated net income of USD 492.0 million and operating profit of USD 599.0 million.
The revenue comparison matters because the current quarter is Autodesk's most recent reported period. Revenue increased from USD 1.76 billion in the comparable quarter, while net income rose to USD 492.0 million from USD 313.0 million, according to Simply Wall St.
Guidance raises the bar
For the fiscal year ending January 31, 2027, Autodesk guides to revenue of USD 8.295 billion to USD 8.345 billion, GAAP earnings per share of USD 7.89 to USD 8.72, and a GAAP operating margin of 25 percent to 27 percent. For the third quarter ending October 31, 2026, the company expects revenue of USD 2.125 billion to USD 2.140 billion and GAAP earnings per share of USD 1.57 to USD 1.87, as Simply Wall St reported.
The guidance gives investors a measurable test for the next report: quarterly revenue must reach at least USD 2.125 billion, while the full-year revenue range implies continued expansion from fiscal 2026 revenue of USD 7.21 billion. Autodesk's fiscal 2027 second-quarter operating margin was 29 percent, placing the reported quarter above the full-year GAAP margin range.
Analyst target stays above price
MarketBeat reported an average analyst price target of USD 316.84 and a Moderate Buy consensus on October 2, 2026. That target sits USD 104.84 above the Nasdaq closing price of USD 212.00, a gap of 49.5 percent calculated from the closing price.
Valuation now sits alongside execution as the central counterweight. Autodesk's market capitalization was USD 44.3 billion at the October 2 close, while the 52-week range was USD 185.50 to USD 326.20, leaving the stock USD 114.20 below its yearly high.

Autodesk's shares closed at USD 212.00 on Nasdaq on October 2, 2026, with volume of 1,664,703 shares and a daily range of USD 210.67 to USD 214.33. The combination of 16.1 percent quarterly revenue growth and a valuation gap to the analyst average target gives the next guidance update a clear numerical benchmark.
