Comcast stock (ISIN US20030N1019) traded at USD 24.69 on September 15, 2026, after UBS cut its price target to USD 27 from USD 32 and kept a Neutral rating. The move leaves the shares below the new target and puts broadband losses back at the center of the debate.
UBS trims the outlook
According to Investing.com on September 15, 2026, UBS now sees total company revenue down 2.2 percent and EBITDA down 3.1 percent for the third quarter, compared with prior estimates for 0.4 percent growth and a 2.5 percent decline. The same report says UBS also cut its 2026 view to 1.5 percent revenue growth and a 4.5 percent EBITDA decline from earlier estimates of 2.6 percent growth and a 4.2 percent decline.
That makes the second quarter of 2026 a useful benchmark. Comcast reported adjusted earnings of USD 1.04 per share on revenue of USD 29.94 billion, ahead of analysts' estimates of USD 0.96 per share and USD 29.25 billion, according to Investing.com on September 15, 2026. The gap to UBS's new 2026 revenue view underlines how much the market now cares about broadband subscriber trends.
October 22 is next
Comcast said in a Business Wire release on September 15, 2026, that it will host its third-quarter earnings conference call on October 22, 2026, at 8:30 a.m. ET. The company also declared a quarterly cash dividend of USD 0.33 a share, payable on October 28, 2026, to shareholders of record on October 7, 2026.
Price stays under pressure
Comcast stock was at USD 24.69 on September 15, 2026, with UBS's new target at USD 27 and the prior target at USD 32. That leaves the shares about 8.1 percent below the new target and keeps the focus on the next report, not just the chart.
