Huntington Ingalls (ISIN US4464131063) was trading at USD 266.31 on the NYSE at 12:02 p.m. ET on October 5, 2026, down 0.83 percent on the session. The company enters its next earnings checkpoint with quarterly results that beat consensus on both earnings and revenue.

Consensus target stays above USD 367

According to MarketBeat on October 5, 2026, 10 research firms held a Moderate Buy consensus, split between five Buy ratings and five Hold ratings. The average 12-month price target was USD 367.12, which lies 37.9 percent above the NYSE price of USD 266.31.

The gap reflects a more cautious market price than the published analyst view. Huntington Ingalls stock remained below its 52-week high of USD 460.00, while its 52-week low stood at USD 256.79 on the same market-data snapshot date.

Second-quarter figures beat estimates

MarketBeat reported that HII's second-quarter 2026 EPS reached USD 5.27, compared with a USD 3.79 consensus estimate. Revenue increased 10.9 percent year over year to USD 3.42 billion, versus an analyst estimate of USD 3.15 billion.

The earnings comparison gives the stock a concrete operating counterweight to its weak position in the yearly range. The second-quarter net margin was 5.01 percent, and the prior-year quarter had produced EPS of USD 3.86, according to the same July 30 results coverage from MarketBeat.

October earnings date approaches

Huntington Ingalls is scheduled to report third-quarter 2026 results on October 29, 2026, with consensus EPS of USD 4.36 and expected revenue of USD 3.36 billion listed by MarketBeat. That date gives investors a defined test for whether the second-quarter earnings advantage can continue into the next report.

HII's investor page describes the company as a naval shipbuilder and all-domain technology provider, and lists FY25 revenue of USD 12.5 billion and 45,000 employees, according to HII.
