CoreCivic stock (ISIN US21871N1019) was trading at EUR 28.70 at Lang & Schwarz on September 30, 2026 at 12:41 p.m. CEST, down 0.69 percent from the EUR 28.90 prior close. The company is digesting a leadership change after Lucibeth N. Mayberry became president and CEO effective September 24, 2026, according to StockTitan.

CEO change meets stronger results

The leadership transition follows a strong second quarter. CoreCivic reported USD 684.9 million in Q2 2026 revenue, up 27.3 percent from the prior-year quarter, while diluted GAAP earnings per share came to USD 0.37 and adjusted diluted earnings per share reached USD 0.38, according to StockTitan.

The earnings comparison was also favorable: adjusted earnings per share of USD 0.38 exceeded the USD 0.34 consensus cited by MarketBeat, while revenue surpassed the USD 618.63 million estimate.

Analyst target stays above the quote

JonesTrading reissued a Buy rating and a USD 42.00 price target on September 18, 2026, as reported by MarketBeat. That target is above the current euro quote, but the currencies and venues are different, so the figures are not combined into a single return calculation.

CoreCivic also has a USD 500 million accelerated share repurchase agreement, while its updated 2026 guidance includes adjusted diluted earnings per share of USD 1.64 to USD 1.73, according to StockTitan. The buyback supports per-share metrics, while the CEO transition creates a separate execution issue for the new management team.

Stock remains below its yearly high

CoreCivic had a market capitalization of USD 3.2 billion as of September 29, 2026. Its 52-week range was USD 15.74 to USD 36.55, placing the Lang & Schwarz euro quote in a market context shaped by a broad recovery from the yearly low and a pullback from the high.
