Published on 09/03/2026 at 19:38 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSBaker Hughes stock (US06652K1034) opened at $64.63 and carried a market capitalization of $64.16 billion on September 3, 2026. The latest quarterly report, posted for July 26, 2026, showed EPS of $0.64 on revenue of $6.74 billion, with revenue up 2.4 percent year over year.
July 26 figures set the tone
MarketBeat said the quarter also delivered net margin of 11.17 percent and return on equity of 13.85 percent. That puts the next investor question on the current year outlook, where analysts cited by the same source expect 2.51 EPS for the full year.
One clear comparison stands out: the company earned $0.64 per share versus $0.51 expected, a beat of $0.13. Baker Hughes also paid a quarterly dividend of $0.23 per share on August 17, 2026, equal to $0.92 annualized and a 1.4 percent yield.
Analysts stay constructive
MarketBeat also reported a consensus Moderate Buy rating and an average price target of $70.67. Against the $64.63 opening price, that leaves the stock below the analyst average while still inside the reported 12-month range of $43.92 to $70.41.
Institutional ownership remained high at 92.06 percent in the same MarketBeat update. The larger signal for investors is that the stock is trading closer to the upper half of its yearly range than to the low end, after a quarter that combined a revenue beat with a profit beat.
Howden remains a growth link
Baker Hughes also appeared in a September 3, 2026 report on a collaboration involving Howden, a Baker Hughes business, and NANO Nuclear. The company link matters because it keeps a smaller industrial business tied to a nuclear-related engineering project while the core stock still trades on oilfield, turbomachinery and digital services exposure.
Price and range
As of September 3, 2026, Baker Hughes stock opened at $64.63 on Nasdaq, with a 52-week range of $43.92 to $70.41. That leaves the shares about $5.78 below the reported 52-week high and well above the low.
