The target is the clearest near-term analyst marker for the government-services provider.

Argus target leaves a narrow gap

Maximus traded at USD 61.04 on the NYSE on October 20, 2026 at 1:12 p.m. ET. Against that same-currency price, the USD 64.00 Argus target stood 4.85 percent above the stock. The target therefore points to a measured valuation step rather than a broad re-rating. Argus gave no previous target in the cited report.

Revenue and margin define the base

The fiscal third-quarter figures combine a USD 1.28 billion revenue base with a 15.00 percent adjusted EBITDA margin and adjusted diluted earnings per share of USD 2.22. These figures came from Maximus investor relations in the Q3 2026 results material dated August 6, 2026, which identifies the quarter end as June 30, 2026. The period also gives investors a concrete comparison point for the fiscal 2026 annual report due after September 30, 2026.

Valuation meets a regular dividend

Maximus had a USD 3.2 billion market capitalization and a trailing P/E ratio of 9.01 on October 20, 2026. The company declared a quarterly cash dividend of USD 0.33 per share on October 5, 2026, payable on November 30 to shareholders of record on November 13, according to MarketScreener. The dividend adds a cash-return element to the target discussion.

November 19 sets the next date

Maximus scheduled its fiscal 2026 fourth-quarter and full-year earnings conference call for November 19, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. ET. The investor-relations page also identifies 37,200 employees and describes the company as a provider of technology-enabled services to government agencies. The scheduled report will put the preliminary fiscal-year figures into their final reporting context.
