Franklin Covey stock (ISIN US3534691098) was trading at USD 17.46 on the NYSE on October 5, 2026, up USD 0.13 or 0.75 percent from the prior close. The company is now balancing a lower fiscal 2026 revenue outlook against steady adjusted EBITDA guidance.
Revenue guidance moves lower
Franklin Covey's third-quarter fiscal 2026 revenue rose 1 percent year over year to USD 67.8 million, while diluted EPS reached USD 0.27. Business Wire reported on September 29, 2026, that Q3 fiscal 2026 revenue increased from USD 67.1 million in the prior-year quarter.
On the July 1, 2026 earnings call, management revised fiscal 2026 revenue guidance to USD 260 million-USD 267 million. According to Yahoo Finance, the company maintained adjusted EBITDA guidance at USD 28 million-USD 31 million after shifting some contract deliveries and facing lower education and international revenue.
Contracted revenue supports 2027
The earnings call also showed where management sees operating leverage. Consolidated subscription and committed-services invoiced amounts increased 17 percent in Q3 fiscal 2026 to USD 37 million, while deferred revenue reached USD 96 million, up 7 percent year over year.
Services bookings were up more than 25 percent year to date through Q3 fiscal 2026. That comparison matters because the bookings are scheduled for future delivery, giving the company a contracted base as it enters fiscal 2027, even as the current-year revenue range has narrowed.
Consensus remains above the stock
MarketBeat reported on October 1, 2026, that four analysts held a consensus Hold rating, with an average price target of USD 27.50. The target lies 57.5 percent above the October 5 price of USD 17.46, placing the guidance reset against a materially higher analyst valuation.
