Quanta Services stock (ISIN US74762E1029) traded at USD 610.59 on September 2, 2026, with a market capitalization of USD 91.80 billion and a 1-year range of USD 363.01 to USD 788.75. The company also posted Q2 2026 EPS of USD 4.24, above the USD 3.31 consensus, while revenue reached USD 9.56 billion.

Q2 numbers set the tone

According to MarketBeat, Quanta Services reported Q2 2026 revenue of USD 9.56 billion, up 41.1 percent from the same quarter a year earlier, and net margin of 4.03 percent. The same report says adjusted EPS was USD 4.24 versus USD 3.31 expected, a surprise of 28.1 percent.

That gap matters because the company also set FY 2026 guidance at EPS of USD 16.45 to USD 16.95, while sell-side forecasts stood at USD 15.35 for the current fiscal year. Investors are now weighing whether the revenue pace and margin profile can support that range.

Guidance and valuation

Zacks said the last quarter beat the consensus estimate by 7.23 percent and also noted a forward view of USD 16.37 EPS for 2026 and USD 18.96 for 2027. In parallel, the market still prices the shares at a premium, with a forward multiple of about 36.18 times and a market value above USD 90 billion.

Quanta Services' dividend also moved into view after the board declared USD 0.11 per share, payable on October 9, 2026 to holders of record on October 1, 2026. That is a modest cash return, but it adds a dated capital-allocation signal to the growth story.

Power grid work stays central

The core business remains electric infrastructure, where second-quarter revenue rose 43.6 percent to USD 7.84 billion and operating income climbed 62.5 percent to USD 898.2 million. Recent coverage also points to estimated 2026 revenue contributions of USD 1.2 billion to USD 1.4 billion from acquisitions, which helps explain why analysts still model further earnings growth.

Stock level stays high

Quanta Services stock closed at USD 610.59 on September 2, 2026, and the shares traded near a market capitalization of USD 91.80 billion. For investors, the key tension is clear: a premium valuation against a quarter that delivered USD 4.24 EPS, USD 9.56 billion in revenue and a raised FY 2026 outlook.
