Barclays' Hold rating contrasts with the broader Moderate Buy consensus and a USD 382.08 average target cited by MarketBeat. The same report lists 16 Buy ratings, 10 Hold ratings and one Strong Buy rating, giving investors a wide range of views before the next report.
Three dated signals for SHW

What comes next for earnings?
The October 27 report is the next dated test for the stock. MarketBeat cited a consensus of USD 3.69 earnings per share and USD 6.78 billion in revenue for the third quarter, alongside full-year 2026 earnings-per-share guidance of USD 11.80-12.20.
The company has also scheduled an earnings call for October 27, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. ET, according to MarketBeat. The key comparison will be whether quarterly revenue can remain above the USD 6.60 billion benchmark that accompanied the second-quarter result.
