Graham Holdings (ISIN US3846371041) maintained its USD 1.88 quarterly dividend on September 10, 2026, with payment scheduled for November 5, 2026, according to MarketScreener. The payout keeps the company in the spotlight for income analysis, while the latest operating figures show a much broader earnings picture.

Dividend date is set

The dividend is payable on November 5, 2026, to shareholders of record on October 15, 2026. The same release identifies the payment as a regular quarterly distribution, giving the payout a defined near-term calendar event.

Graham Holdings reported USD 1.30 billion of revenue in the second quarter of 2026, up 7.10 percent from the second quarter of 2025, according to Simply Wall St. Net income reached USD 281.10 million, compared with USD 36.50 million in the year-earlier quarter, while the reported profit margin rose to 22.00 percent from 3.00 percent.

Revenue and earnings diverge

The revenue increase was measured, but the earnings comparison was much larger. Diluted earnings per share reached USD 64.86 in the second quarter of 2026, compared with USD 8.43 in the second quarter of 2025, according to the same reported-results summary.

Argus lowered its price target for Graham Holdings to USD 1,241.00 in a report dated September 30, 2026, as shown by Yahoo Finance. The target remains above the latest primary-exchange quote, but the change signals a more cautious valuation view than the sharp second-quarter earnings comparison alone would suggest.

ToAlpha lists October 28, 2026, as the next reporting date. That date places the next test of revenue, earnings and cash generation after the October dividend record date.

NYSE quote and euro close

Graham Holdings was last at USD 1,155.36 on the NYSE on October 5, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. ET. The Lang & Schwarz October 5 quote set showed a previous close of EUR 1,030.00 for the prior Xetra trading session dated October 2, 2026.
