CDW Corporation stock was trading at USD 149.97 on Nasdaq on September 23, 2026, up 1.72 percent from the prior close. The move follows a second-quarter earnings beat, with adjusted EPS of USD 2.91 exceeding the USD 2.80 consensus.
Q2 revenue clears estimates
According to MarketBeat, CDW reported second-quarter revenue of USD 6.57 billion on August 5, 2026, compared with analyst expectations of USD 6.21 billion. Revenue increased 10.0 percent from the same quarter a year earlier.
The earnings comparison was also favorable. Adjusted EPS of USD 2.91 exceeded consensus by USD 0.11, while the prior-year figure was USD 2.60, according to Zacks.
Barclays target sits below price
The analyst view is more restrained than the earnings growth. MarketScreener reported on September 21, 2026, that Barclays cut its price target from USD 150 to USD 148 while retaining an Equalweight rating.
That USD 148 target is USD 1.97 below the September 23 intraday price. The contrast gives investors two separate signals: operating demand was ahead of estimates in Q2, while the cited Barclays valuation remains below the latest market quote.
Stock remains below yearly high
CDW's September 23 price of USD 149.97 stood USD 17.03 below its 52-week high of USD 167.00, a gap of 10.20 percent. The 52-week low was USD 97.12, leaving the stock USD 52.85 above that level.
Market capitalization was USD 19,158,478,645 on September 23, 2026. Trading volume stood at 298,047 shares at the quoted time, against an average volume of 1,847,379 shares.
Price and earnings point apart
CDW stock combines a 1.72 percent intraday gain with a recent earnings comparison that favored the company by USD 0.11 per adjusted share. The next valuation signal is whether that operating performance can support a market price above the USD 148 Barclays target.
