On October 15, 2026, RBC Capital maintained its Buy rating on Coursera and set a USD 7.00 price target, according to Markets Insider. The target stands 37.52 percent above the USD 5.09 NYSE closing price of October 16, 2026. Coursera stock closed at EUR 4.50 on Tradegate on October 16, 2026, down 0.22 percent on the day.
Revenue growth remains substantial
Coursera reported USD 298.60 million in revenue for the second quarter of 2026, up 59.60 percent from USD 187.10 million a year earlier. The company also posted a GAAP net loss of USD 80.40 million, compared with a USD 7.80 million loss in the year-ago quarter, according to Markets Insider. The revenue increase is the stronger operating signal, while the wider GAAP loss keeps profitability central to the next results.
Stock stays near its yearly low
Coursera traded between USD 4.92 and USD 5.20 on the NYSE on October 16, 2026, with 6,202,874 shares changing hands against an average volume of 6,252,418. Its 52-week range was USD 4.53 to USD 10.77, placing the closing price 10.26 percent above the low and 52.74 percent below the high. The stock was down 2.95 percent on the day in USD terms.
Results date sets the next checkpoint
Coursera has a market capitalization of USD 1.3 billion and a trailing price-to-earnings ratio of minus 6.94. The company said it will release results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026, after the U.S. market close on October 29, 2026, followed by a conference call at 5:00 p.m. ET, according to Coursera. MarketBeat reported consensus expectations of USD 368.56 million in revenue and USD 0.18 in earnings per share for that quarter on October 15, 2026, but those figures remain forecasts rather than reported results.
