Radian Group (ISIN US7502361014) received a Barclays target increase on October 5, 2026, from USD 35.00 to USD 36.00, as Markets Insider reported. The change keeps an Equal Weight rating on the shares and frames the stock around mortgage finance conditions, lending activity and interest rates.

Barclays lifts target to USD 36

The revised target is USD 1.00 above the previous USD 35.00 level. Barclays also cited favorable consumer and lending commentary, while reducing estimates for mortgage finance companies because of higher mortgage rates and a weaker origination backdrop, according to Markets Insider.

Revenue grows, earnings per share lags

Radian's second-quarter 2026 revenue rose 92.30 percent year over year to USD 574.96 million, exceeding the USD 556.55 million analyst estimate, according to MarketBeat. Earnings per share came in at USD 1.14 versus a USD 1.34 consensus estimate, so the revenue beat did not translate into an earnings beat.

The result reflects Radian's broader specialty insurance profile after its expansion beyond U.S. private mortgage insurance. The company says its operations span mortgage and real estate markets, with specialty insurance and reinsurance adding to the core mortgage platform.

Next results date is November 4

MarketBeat lists November 4, 2026 as Radian's next earnings date. That report will give investors a new test of whether the revenue expansion can support earnings after the second-quarter shortfall against consensus.

EUR 30.30 prior close

The Lang & Schwarz data set dated October 6, 2026 shows a prior close of EUR 30.30 for October 5, 2026; its October 6 quote was dormant and therefore supplies no daily percentage change. The primary listing is NYSE, where Radian's finance quote showed USD 34.11 on October 6, 2026, with a USD 30.53 to USD 41.05 52-week range and a market capitalization of USD 4.5 billion.
