Ryder System stock heads toward October 22 earnings
Published on 10/06/2026 at 12:10 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWS
Ryder System (ISIN US7835491082) was last at USD 235.94 on the NYSE on October 5, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. ET, down 0.55 percent from the prior close. The immediate catalyst was JPMorgan's upgrade to Overweight and its higher USD 298 price target, up from USD 296, reported by Investing.com on October 5, 2026.
JPMorgan raises its target
The new JPMorgan target lies 26.3 percent above the October 5 NYSE price. The bank cited a more durable earnings profile as Ryder expands its contractual, asset-light operations, according to Investing.com.
The broader analyst picture also remains constructive. Investing.com lists a Buy consensus from 11 analysts, with 6 Buy ratings, 5 Hold ratings and 0 Sell ratings; its average 12-month target is USD 287.89, 22.02 percent above the NYSE price, with a USD 245 low and USD 320 high.
Q2 earnings beat the estimate
Ryder's Q2 2026 EPS was USD 3.73 against USD 3.69 consensus, while revenue reached USD 3.35 billion against USD 3.30 billion expected, according to Investing.com. The same source reports that full-year 2026 EPS guidance stands at USD 14.40-14.80 and third-quarter guidance at USD 4.00-4.20.
That earnings backdrop gives the October upgrade a measurable operating anchor, but the stock still sits USD 48.31 below its 52-week high of USD 284.25. Its 52-week low is USD 157.67, leaving the current quote closer to the upper end of the annual range than to its floor.
October 22 is the next checkpoint
Ryder System will release its third-quarter 2026 results at approximately 7:00 a.m. ET on October 22, 2026, and will hold its conference call at 11:00 a.m. ET, according to the company's release published through Business Wire. That report will test whether the current guidance range can support the higher analyst expectations.
