IDT stock (ISIN US4489475073) fell 1.25 percent to USD 78.98 at the October 2, 2026 NYSE close, leaving the shares 3.44 percent below their 52-week high of USD 81.79. The company had reported record fiscal 2026 results on September 28, 2026, giving the market a stronger earnings base to assess after the latest pullback.
Fiscal 2026 profit accelerated
According to IDT on September 28, 2026, fourth-quarter revenue rose 7 percent year over year to USD 339.0 million, while gross profit increased 18 percent to USD 134.8 million. Income from operations climbed 52 percent to USD 33.2 million, and adjusted EBITDA advanced 22 percent to USD 41.2 million.
For the full fiscal year ended July 31, 2026, revenue reached USD 1.298 billion, up 5.4 percent from fiscal 2025, while net income attributable to IDT rose 13.8 percent to USD 86.6 million. Diluted GAAP EPS increased from USD 3.01 to USD 3.46, and the gross margin expanded from 36.2 percent to 38.3 percent.
Guidance points to higher EBITDA
IDT's fiscal 2027 outlook calls for gross profit of USD 545 million-USD 555 million and adjusted EBITDA of USD 176 million-USD 180 million. That EBITDA range compares with USD 154.6 million in fiscal 2026, implying a guidance increase of 13.8 percent at the lower end and 16.4 percent at the upper end.
The mix matters because IDT's higher-margin growth businesses supplied much of the latest operating improvement. In the fourth quarter, National Retail Solutions revenue rose 31 percent to USD 45.0 million, while Fintech revenue increased 12 percent to USD 47.1 million, according to Zacks on October 2, 2026.
Target moves above the share price
Yahoo Finance lists one analyst target of USD 85.00, equal to the published average and high target, against the USD 78.98 closing price. The target lies 7.62 percent above the price, while the latest analyst action dated September 30, 2026 shows Freedom Broker raising its target from USD 75 to USD 85 and maintaining a Buy rating, according to Yahoo Finance.
Dividend payment is scheduled
IDT declared a quarterly cash dividend of USD 0.07 per share, payable October 14, 2026, to shareholders of record on October 5, 2026, according to the SEC filing. The payment represents a quarterly distribution rather than a change to the fiscal 2027 earnings outlook.
