Fastenal Co. stock (US3119001044) traded at USD 48.79 on September 10, 2026, after a July 14, 2026 earnings update showed EPS of USD 0.33 and revenue up 14.7 percent year over year. The latest analyst snapshot points to a Hold view and a USD 49.17 average target.

July results set the tone

According to MarketBeat, Fastenal reported quarterly EPS of USD 0.33 on July 14, 2026, matching the consensus estimate. The same page says quarterly revenue rose 14.7 percent from the prior-year period, a comparison that supports the stock's current valuation debate.

That combination matters because MarketBeat also lists net income of USD 1.26 billion, net margin of 15.45 percent and return on equity of 34.03 percent on the same Fastenal profile. For investors, the margin profile is still the number to watch.

Wall Street stays cautious

That leaves little distance between price and target. The market cap is about USD 55.99 billion, and the 52-week range runs from USD 38.97 to USD 52.92.
