Verisign (ISIN US92343E1029) was trading at EUR 256.40 at Lang & Schwarz on October 5, 2026 at 11:39 a.m. CEST, up 0.06 percent versus the prior close of EUR 256.25.

Wedbush holds at USD 341.00
The unchanged target gives investors a clearly dated benchmark in a market where the euro quote remains nearly flat against its Lang & Schwarz prior close. The USD 341.00 target is a separate Nasdaq-market reference and is not combined with the EUR 256.40 quote.
Second-quarter revenue rose 6.00 percent
Verisign generated USD 434.60 million in revenue in the second quarter of 2026, up 6.00 percent from the same period a year earlier. Diluted earnings per share reached USD 2.38, exceeding the USD 2.36 consensus estimate, according to MarketBeat. The combination of revenue growth and earnings above consensus provides a stronger operating reference than the muted intraday price change.
Third-quarter results set for October 22
