Nova Ltd. (ISIN IL0010845571) is heading toward a November 5 results date while its analyst consensus target stands at USD 499.44 from 11 analysts. MarketBeat published the consensus figure on October 13, 2026. Nova stock was trading at EUR 280.65 at Lang & Schwarz on October 20, 2026 at 3:16 p.m. CEST.

November 5 sets the next test

Nova expects to release its third-quarter 2026 results before the Nasdaq open on November 5, 2026, with an earnings call at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time. The date came from Nova's Form 6-K dated October 15, 2026, as reported by StockTitan.

The latest reported quarter gives that date a measurable backdrop. Nova generated USD 254.96 million in second-quarter 2026 revenue, up 15.90 percent from the second quarter of 2025, while net income reached USD 75.01 million. The standardized quarterly figures show diluted earnings per share of USD 2.20 and a net profit margin of 29.00 percent.

Revenue growth met margin pressure

Nova's second-quarter 2026 revenue rose 15.90 percent year over year, but gross margin declined to 56.50 percent from 57.80 percent, according to Yahoo Finance on October 11, 2026. The comparison puts the investor question beyond sales growth: operating progress must also offset a diluted share count that rose 7.50 percent to 34.450 million.

Valuation remains elevated

Nova was last quoted at USD 319.10 on the Nasdaq on October 19, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time, down 0.65 percent from USD 321.20. Its market capitalization was USD 10.1 billion, the trailing P/E ratio was 39.14, and the 52-week range was USD 266.43 to USD 615.99.

At the consensus target of USD 499.44, the target lies 56.53 percent above the Nasdaq price of USD 319.10. That gap is the clearest numerical expression of the split between continued operating growth and a more demanding valuation.

Comparison with peers

Nova Ltd.: down 0.65 percent, P/E 39.14, market capitalization USD 10.1 billion

Applied Materials (Nasdaq, USD): up 0.93 percent, P/E 35.61, market capitalization USD 327.8 billion

KLA Corporation (Nasdaq, USD): up 0.40 percent, P/E 45.40, market capitalization USD 217.2 billion

Trading price and scheduled date

Nova combines a lower P/E than KLA with a much smaller market value and a scheduled results date that will test whether the second-quarter growth rate carried into the third quarter. The Nasdaq listing and the company identity were stated in the October 15 filing.
