Buckle stock (ISIN US1184401065) was last at USD 43.45 on the NYSE on October 5, 2026, at 4:00 p.m. ET, up 1.28 percent from USD 42.90. The company has set a USD 0.35 quarterly dividend, creating a concrete income date for shareholders as the retail stock approaches its next record date.

Dividend dates shape the near term

According to Business Wire on September 15, 2026, Buckle's board authorized the USD 0.35 payment after its September 14 meeting. The dividend is payable on October 29, 2026, to shareholders of record at the close of business on October 15, 2026.

The payout matters because it gives the stock a defined near-term event while the share price remains USD 15.07 below its 52-week high of USD 58.52 on the October 5 quote. The same snapshot showed a 52-week low of USD 39.44, placing the stock USD 4.01 above that lower boundary.

Fiscal Q2 brought higher sales

StockTitan reported that Buckle's fiscal Q2 ended August 1, 2026, with revenue of USD 319.8 million, up 4.6 percent from USD 305.7 million a year earlier. Net income was USD 44.4 million, compared with USD 45.0 million in the prior-year quarter, while diluted EPS came in at USD 0.87 versus USD 0.89.

The six-month comparison was more favorable: sales increased 5.3 percent to USD 608.6 million, and net income rose to USD 91.3 million from USD 80.2 million. That split gives investors a sharper read than the quarterly profit decline alone, with the first half showing earnings growth despite the softer second-quarter bottom line.

Analysts see limited upside

MarketBeat lists a Hold consensus based on 2 analysts, with an average, high and low price target of USD 46.00. That target lies 5.9 percent above the October 5 price of USD 43.45, a modest gap that keeps the dividend and the next sales updates central to the investment case.

Buckle stock stays above its yearly low

Buckle stock carried a market capitalization of USD 2.2 billion and volume of 454,410 shares on October 5, 2026. The combination of higher fiscal-year sales and a lower quarterly profit leaves revenue growth, margin resilience and the USD 0.35 dividend as the key measurable checkpoints.
