ABM Industries Incorporated (US0009571003) stock traded at USD 49.77 on September 19, 2026, after third-quarter fiscal 2026 adjusted EPS of USD 1.04 beat the USD 1.01 consensus by USD 0.03. The same report put revenue at USD 2.317 billion and narrowed fiscal 2026 adjusted EPS guidance to USD 3.95 to USD 4.10, as ScanX reported on September 19, 2026.

Revenue beat sets the tone

Revenue rose 4.2 percent year over year to USD 2.317 billion, while adjusted EPS climbed 27 percent year over year to USD 1.04, according to ScanX on September 19, 2026. That combination matters more than the beat alone, because ABM also lifted the lower end of its fiscal 2026 earnings range to USD 3.95 from USD 3.85.

MarketBeat said ABM Industries closed at USD 49.69 on September 18, 2026, with a market capitalization of USD 2.91 billion, volume of 1.39 million shares and a 52-week range of USD 36.96 to USD 51.29. The stock then moved to USD 49.77 on September 19, 2026, leaving it close to the top of that range.

Analysts still see room

According to MarketBeat, the consensus rating on September 20, 2026 was Hold, with an average price target of USD 50.88. The same overview listed a high target of USD 53.00 and a low target of USD 49.00, putting the latest quote almost exactly in line with the consensus.

ScanX also noted that Freedom Capital Markets raised its target to USD 58 from USD 55 and Baird lifted its target to USD 53 from USD 48 after the earnings release. Those moves frame the report as a modest but clear improvement in operating momentum rather than a broad rerating.

Close to the high

ABM stock ended September 19, 2026 at USD 49.77 on the NYSE, with a market value of USD 2.92 billion and a day low of USD 48.64. The latest price sits only slightly below the 52-week high of USD 51.29, so the next test is whether the new guidance can hold.
