Aon plc stock was trading at EUR 240.65 at Lang & Schwarz on October 8, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. CEST, while Cantor Fitzgerald had cut its target to USD 400.00 from USD 433.00 on October 7, 2026, according to MarketBeat. Cantor Fitzgerald maintained an Overweight rating in the same October 7, 2026 research note.

Revenue grew in the second quarter

Trivano reported that Aon's second-quarter 2026 revenue rose 2.00 percent year over year to USD 4.25 billion. Adjusted earnings per share, a non-GAAP measure, increased 9.00 percent to USD 3.81 from USD 3.49, while GAAP diluted earnings per share declined 3.00 percent to USD 2.58 from USD 2.66.

The result shows a split operating picture. Revenue growth continued, but the GAAP earnings figure moved lower, making the distinction between reported and adjusted performance important ahead of the third-quarter earnings cycle.

Middle market strategy gains structure

Aon had expanded Denise Perlman's role on October 7, 2026, naming her executive managing director and middle market segment leader for reinsurance, as Insurance Business reported. Perlman also serves on the integration management office for Aon's proposed USD 17.00 billion acquisition of USI Insurance Services, a transaction expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2026 subject to regulatory approval.

The leadership change gives the USI transaction an operating counterpart before completion. It also places reinsurance distribution inside the middle market strategy that Aon is building through its Risk Capital business.

Euro quote and market value

Aon carried a USD 57.4 billion market capitalization as of October 7, 2026. Its USD 266.33 to USD 382.34 52-week range places the primary-listing context well above the euro quote's direct reference currency, so the two price measures are kept separate.

At Lang & Schwarz, Aon was trading at EUR 240.65 on October 8, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. CEST, minus 0.35 percent versus the EUR 241.50 prior close of October 7, 2026. The further course of trading is shown by the continuously updated real-time quote of Aon plc stock.
