Published on 10/06/2026 at 18:12 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWS
Booking Holdings stock was trading at USD 157.82 on Nasdaq on October 6, 2026, down 0.32 percent from the prior close. The latest quarterly figures show USD 7.35 billion in revenue and USD 1.95 billion in net profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, keeping earnings at the center of the valuation debate.
Revenue reaches USD 7.35 billion
According to Markets Insider on October 3, 2026, Booking reported quarterly revenue of USD 7.35 billion for Q2 2026, compared with USD 6.8 billion in Q2 2025. Net profit rose from USD 895 million to USD 1.95 billion over the same period, according to the same earnings account published by Markets Insider.
The profit comparison is the sharper figure for investors: revenue expanded from USD 6.8 billion to USD 7.35 billion, while net profit more than doubled to USD 1.95 billion. The market is still valuing the company below its 52-week high, making the durability of that earnings growth more important than the single-quarter headline.
Analysts see room above USD 236.98
MarketBeat reported on September 19, 2026, that 37 brokerages carried a Moderate Buy consensus, including 26 Buy, three Strong Buy and eight Hold ratings. The average 12-month price target was USD 236.98, which lies 50.2 percent above the USD 157.82 price.
BTIG maintained a Buy rating and a USD 250.00 price target in a report dated October 2, 2026, according to Markets Insider. That target stands above the broader consensus, but the article also noted that Truist maintained a Buy rating with a USD 216.00 target on September 30, 2026.
Regulatory risk remains material
The earnings picture faces a legal counter-factor. Baker Botts reported on September 30, 2026, that the European Union General Court dismissed Booking Holdings' challenge to the block on its proposed Etraveli acquisition, while an appeal remains possible through late November 2026.
