Nasdaq price and yearly range
The stock's 52-week range was USD 256.11 to USD 376.86 as of October 16, 2026. The Nasdaq price therefore sat 17.78 percent above the yearly low and 17.78 percent below the yearly high. Trading volume reached 500,251 shares against an average of 469,304 shares.
HEICO operates through Flight Support Group and Electronic Technologies Group, serving aerospace, defense, industrial and electronics customers. Its corporate website identifies the company as listed on the NYSE under HEI and HEI.A. The latest company-specific market context on the topic page was a TD Cowen target reduction published October 15, 2026, but the current report centers on the newer Morgan Stanley target update.
Valuation and December reporting date
The next reporting date is December 21, 2026, according to finanzen.net. The same estimates page lists a fiscal 2026 price-to-earnings ratio of 53.47 and a dividend yield of 0.08 percent, while the current quote data show a lower trailing ratio of 51.64. The distinction matters because the two ratios use different earnings bases.
