USD 172 target meets strong results
The analyst action follows Raymond James Financial's fiscal third-quarter 2026 performance, when net revenue reached USD 3.93 billion. Benzinga reported that revenue increased 16.00 percent from the prior-year quarter, while net income available to common shareholders reached USD 595 million and diluted earnings per share stood at USD 3.01.
Adjusted net income was USD 620 million and adjusted diluted earnings per share reached USD 3.14 in fiscal third-quarter 2026, according to the same earnings-call coverage. The comparison matters because the reported quarter combined record revenue with a 33.00 percent year-over-year increase in pre-tax income to USD 750 million.
Client assets provide the growth signal
Raymond James also entered the fourth quarter with expanding client balances. Its August 2026 operating data showed client assets under administration of USD 1.97 trillion, up 16.00 percent from August 2025 and 2.00 percent from July 2026, according to MarketScreener.
Financial assets under management reached USD 350.5 billion on August 31, 2026, up 30.00 percent from August 2025. Bank loans, net, stood at USD 56.4 billion, compared with USD 50.2 billion a year earlier, giving the balance-sheet business a second quantified growth driver.
Next results arrive October 28
The next scheduled earnings report is set for October 28, 2026, after the market closes, according to MarketBeat. That date gives investors a defined checkpoint for judging whether asset growth, fee income and banking momentum carried into fiscal fourth-quarter 2026.
