Three dated developments
On July 29, 2026, Starbucks reported fiscal third-quarter revenue of USD 9.3 billion, down 1.00 percent year over year, while earnings per share reached USD 0.85, up 70.00 percent year over year, as Yahoo Finance reported from the companys earnings call. On September 29, 2026, JPMorgan cut its Starbucks target from USD 112.00 to USD 105.00, according to MarketBeat. On October 7, 2026, the dividend rose to USD 0.63 per share, marking the 16th consecutive annual increase, according to FT.com.
What does the recovery mean for margins?
The fiscal third-quarter figures point to improving operating leverage. Management reported a non-GAAP consolidated operating margin of 14.40 percent, an expansion of 430 basis points year over year, while global comparable sales grew 7.90 percent and North America comparable sales increased 8.10 percent, according to Yahoo Finance. The comparison matters because revenue declined even as customer transactions and margins improved.
Starbucks also raised fiscal 2026 adjusted earnings-per-share guidance to USD 2.55-2.65 and expects consolidated operating margin above 11.00 percent. The same call cited a USD 2.00 billion cost-savings plan through fiscal 2028, creating a measurable operating target alongside the sales recovery.
