BofA raises target for Interactive Brokers stock
Published on 10/06/2026 at 12:58 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSInteractive Brokers (ISIN US45841N1072) was trading at EUR 79.44 at Lang & Schwarz on October 6, 2026 at 12:52 p.m. CEST. On October 5, 2026, BofA raised its price target for Interactive Brokers from USD 114.00 to USD 116.00 while keeping a Buy rating, according to Markets Insider.
BofA lifts target before results
The target increase came ahead of Interactive Brokers' third-quarter results and reflects higher account-growth assumptions. BofA also raised its 2026 earnings-per-share estimate to USD 2.75 from USD 2.72 and its 2027 estimate to USD 3.43 from USD 3.28, according to Investing.com.
The same report shows a counter-factor: BofA cut its third-quarter 2026 earnings-per-share estimate to USD 0.69 from USD 0.71 because of lower average commission per cleared trade. That keeps trading activity and monetization central to the next earnings update.
Second-quarter growth sets the benchmark
Interactive Brokers reported USD 1.88 billion in revenue for the second quarter of 2026, up 28.10 percent from the same quarter a year earlier. Earnings per share reached USD 0.69 against a USD 0.64 consensus estimate, a USD 0.05 beat, according to MarketBeat.
The comparison matters because the company enters the third quarter with both strong growth and a premium valuation debate. BofA's USD 116.00 target is USD 36.56 above the Lang & Schwarz price in a different currency basis, so no euro-to-dollar upside calculation is used here.
October 15 is the next test
Interactive Brokers plans to announce third-quarter 2026 results on October 15, 2026, at 4:00 p.m. ET, followed by a conference call at 4:30 p.m. ET, according to Yahoo Finance. The release will show whether account growth can offset the lower commission-per-trade assumption in BofA's model.
