Veralto (ISIN US92338C1036) stock was trading at EUR 90.68 at Lang & Schwarz on October 15, 2026, at 12:39 p.m. CEST. The latest analyst action came from Jefferies, which upgraded Veralto to Strong Buy in a note issued on October 13, 2026, according to MarketBeat.

Analyst support meets a firm date

The upgrade gives investors a fresh research signal before Veralto reports its third quarter. The same MarketBeat report lists a consensus rating of Moderate Buy and an average target of USD 112.70, while the company had a market value of USD 23.95 billion and a 12-month range of USD 80.03 to USD 105.75 on October 13, 2026.

UBS had raised its target from USD 104.00 to USD 106.00 while keeping a Neutral rating on October 5, 2026, as reported by Markets Insider. That contrast leaves the analyst picture constructive but not uniform.

Three dated signals shape the story

On July 28, 2026, Veralto reported quarterly revenue of USD 1.47 billion and earnings per share of USD 1.11, versus consensus of USD 1.45 billion and USD 1.01, according to MarketBeat. On September 23, 2026, the company maintained its quarterly dividend at USD 0.13 per share, payable October 30, 2026, according to MarketScreener. On October 13, 2026, Jefferies upgraded the stock to Strong Buy.

What does the next quarter imply?

MarketBeat reports analysts expect third-quarter revenue of USD 1.50 billion and earnings per share of USD 1.09, compared with USD 1.40 billion and USD 0.99 in the prior-year quarter. That implies revenue growth of 7.14 percent and earnings-per-share growth of 10.10 percent, giving the October report a clear numerical test.

Reporting dates are already set

Veralto will post its third-quarter earnings materials after market close on October 29, 2026, and hold the conference call on October 30, 2026, at 7:30 a.m. ET, according to the Yahoo Finance publication of the company announcement.

Stock enters the earnings window

The stock enters the reporting window with analyst targets above the reported market price and a scheduled dividend payment. The next earnings release will show whether the expected USD 1.50 billion revenue level is matched by actual third-quarter sales.
