Published on 09/02/2026 at 10:28 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWS
Grainger stock (ISIN GB00B04V1276) ended at USD 1,307.51 on September 1, 2026, after a quarter in which revenue reached USD 5.02 billion and EPS came in at USD 12.01. MarketBeat said the company also kept fiscal 2026 EPS guidance at USD 45.50 to USD 47.25.
Quarterly numbers stay strong
MarketBeat reported that revenue rose 10.3 percent year over year to USD 5.02 billion in the latest quarter, while EPS increased from USD 9.97 a year earlier to USD 12.01. That left earnings USD 0.71 above the USD 11.30 consensus estimate cited in the same report.
Yahoo Finance showed a market capitalization of USD 61.4 billion and a profit margin of 11.35 percent on September 2, 2026. For investors, the combination of a USD 61.4 billion market value and double-digit margin keeps the valuation conversation tied to execution, not just the latest price print.
Guidance remains in view
The same MarketBeat filing page said Grainger maintained fiscal 2026 EPS guidance of USD 45.50 to USD 47.25, and another MarketBeat update put the consensus target price at USD 1,286.62 with an average rating of Hold. The stock therefore traded above that target level at the close on September 1, 2026.
A second figure matters here: the quarter's EPS of USD 12.01 compares with USD 9.97 a year earlier, a gain of 20.4 percent. Revenue also advanced 10.3 percent, so the latest report showed both sales and profit growth at once.
Grainger profit and guidance in detail
The latest quarter combined higher sales, stronger EPS and unchanged 2026 guidance, making the next update important for valuation.
Build to rent stays central
Grainger's build to rent platform remains the core product story behind those figures, with the company framing growth around recurring rental income and portfolio execution. The latest quarter's revenue of USD 5.02 billion and EPS of USD 12.01 show how that model is translating into reported results.
Price and market value
Grainger stock closed at USD 1,307.51 on September 1, 2026. With market capitalization at USD 61.4 billion on September 2, 2026, the share price still reflects a large-cap valuation backdrop.
