Aon plc (ISIN IE00BLP1HW54) stock is trading at EUR 258.95 at Lang & Schwarz on October 20, 2026, 1.07 percent above the Xetra close of October 19, 2026 at EUR 256.20. The immediate catalyst is a higher third-quarter earnings estimate from Zacks Research, while the company heads toward its October reporting date.

Estimate moves ahead of results

According to MarketBeat on October 19, 2026, Zacks Research raised its third-quarter 2026 earnings-per-share estimate to USD 3.38 from USD 3.34. The revision is modest at USD 0.04, but it gives investors a fresh benchmark for the report.

What does the estimate imply?

The more important comparison remains Aon's latest reported quarter. MarketBeat reported that second-quarter revenue reached USD 4.25 billion, up 2.20 percent year over year, while earnings per share came to USD 3.81 against a USD 3.80 consensus estimate. The revenue figure was below the USD 4.28 billion estimate, making organic growth and margin performance important details for the next release.

Three events set the sequence

The recent chronology is clear: Aon reported second-quarter revenue of USD 4.25 billion on July 29, 2026; Wells Fargo cut its price target from USD 383 to USD 323 on October 12, 2026, as Markets Insider reported; and Zacks Research lifted its third-quarter estimate from USD 3.34 to USD 3.38 on October 16, 2026, according to MarketBeat.

Which dates come next?

Aon is scheduled to report third-quarter 2026 results on October 28, 2026, according to onvista. The next listed ex-dividend date is November 2, 2026, with a quarterly dividend of USD 0.82 per share, also reported by MarketBeat.

Stock trades above Xetra close

The euro quotation is above the previous Xetra session, but the 1.07 percent move remains smaller than the gap between Aon's latest revenue and the consensus estimate. The next results therefore offer the clearest test of whether the improved earnings estimate is supported by operating progress. Aon stock was trading at EUR 258.95 at Lang & Schwarz on October 20, 2026 at 9:04 a.m. CEST, 1.07 percent above the Xetra close of October 19, 2026 at EUR 256.20.
