Loews stock holds near $111 after second-quarter profit

Loews stock is anchored by $2.16 in second-quarter EPS and $4.73 billion in revenue, while shares opened at $111.06 and the market cap stood at $22.70 billion on August 27, 2026.

Loews Corporation (US5404241031) stock opened at $111.06 on August 27, 2026, with a market value of $22.70 billion and a price-to-earnings ratio of 13.61. The latest quarter reported $2.16 in earnings per share on $4.73 billion in revenue, giving investors a fresh read on the company's earnings power.

Second-quarter numbers

The most recent results were posted on August 3, 2026, and showed a 9.02 percent net margin and an 8.60 percent return on equity. Revenue of $4.73 billion and EPS of $2.16 point to a business that is still producing solid profits at the parent-company level.

One detail stands out for valuation work: the stock's 50-day moving average sits at $113.92, while the 200-day moving average is $110.25. That puts the opening price just above the longer trend line and below the shorter one.

Dividend and peer angle

Loews also declared a quarterly dividend of $0.0625 a share, or $0.25 a year, with payment set for September 1, 2026. For income-oriented holders, that keeps the payout part of the story visible alongside earnings and valuation.

The company's profile remains tied to insurance and related holdings, so the second-quarter margin and ROE figures matter more than headline revenue alone. A company with $4.73 billion in quarterly sales and a 9.02 percent net margin is being priced more like a steady compounder than a rapid-growth name.

CNA as the core asset

CNA Financial is the most representative operating piece inside the group, and its results help explain why Loews continues to show stable earnings characteristics. That operating mix is what turns a $4.73 billion quarter into a profit profile with a double-digit earnings multiple attached.

Loews shares in view

Loews shares were trading from a $111.06 opening level on August 27, 2026, against a $22.70 billion market cap and a 13.61 times earnings multiple. The stock is sitting close to its 200-day average of $110.25 and below its 50-day average of $113.92.
