Nordson Corp (ISIN US6556631025) closed at USD 333.54 on Nasdaq on October 2, 2026, up 1.37 percent from the prior close. The latest fiscal Q3 report delivered adjusted EPS of USD 3.25 and revenue of USD 817.67 million, giving the industrial equipment maker a concrete earnings and guidance story.
Q3 revenue reaches USD 817.67 million
According to Zacks in its September 18, 2026 report on the August 19, 2026 results, adjusted EPS rose 19.0 percent year over year to USD 3.25. That result exceeded the USD 3.09 consensus by USD 0.16, while revenue increased 10.3 percent to USD 817.67 million from USD 779.49 million expected.
The growth was broad across Nordson's operations in fiscal Q3 2026. Advanced Technology Solutions revenue surged 28.4 percent to USD 219.88 million, while Medical and Fluid Solutions revenue increased 5.0 percent to USD 230.54 million, according to Zacks.
Guidance moves higher for fiscal 2026
Nordson's fiscal 2026 outlook calls for sales of USD 3,035 million to USD 3,075 million and adjusted EPS of USD 11.80 to USD 12.00. The sales range compares with a previous USD 2,930 million to USD 3,010 million, while the adjusted EPS range was lifted from USD 11.30 to USD 11.80, according to Zacks.
The operating picture also includes a counter-factor. Zacks said management expects Advanced Technology Solutions growth to moderate in fiscal 2027 after a peak cycle, even as medical components target mid-single-digit-plus growth. For investors, the higher fiscal 2026 range now has to be weighed against that later normalization risk.
Consensus target trails the close
MarketBeat reported on September 25, 2026, that eight brokerages held a Moderate Buy consensus, with five Buy ratings and three Holds. The average 12-month target was USD 326.57, while Oppenheimer's target stood at USD 370.
That target mix places the latest close against a constructive but measured analyst backdrop. Nordson shares also remained within the October 2, 2026 52-week range of USD 223.29 to USD 339.12, with the close 1.65 percent below the high.
Next report date is December 16
Nordson is scheduled to release its next earnings report on December 16, 2026, according to Investing.com. The date gives the market a defined checkpoint for testing whether the elevated fiscal 2026 outlook is translating into continued quarterly growth.
