General Dynamics stock (NYSE:GD) closed at USD 352.80 on September 9, 2026, down 1.06 percent, while its market value stood at USD 95.45 billion and the 52-week range ran from USD 306.77 to USD 400.00.

UBS raises the bar

According to MarketBeat, UBS lifted its price target on General Dynamics stock to USD 408 from USD 395 and kept a Neutral rating on September 10, 2026. The same page shows a consensus target of USD 411.58 and a consensus rating of Moderate Buy.

That leaves the share price at a discount of 56 cents below the UBS target and about 2.1 percent below the consensus target, using the September 9, 2026 close of USD 352.80. The move matters because General Dynamics still trades below its 52-week high of USD 400.00 even after the recent recovery.

Q2 set the base

General Dynamics reported Q2 2026 revenue of USD 14.09 billion and adjusted EPS of USD 4.24 on July 29, 2026, according to MarketBeat. Revenue rose 8.1 percent year over year, and EPS beat the consensus estimate of USD 3.96 by USD 0.28.

The same report said net margin was 8.18 percent, return on equity was 17.43 percent and FY 2026 EPS guidance was USD 16.80 to USD 16.90. For investors, that guidance range is now the key comparison point against the consensus estimate of USD 16.99 for the full year.
