Universal Electronics (ISIN US9134831034) carried a Rosenblatt Securities forecast of USD 0.05 earnings per share for the third quarter in a research note dated October 1, 2026, according to MarketBeat. The forecast came with a Neutral rating and a USD 5.00 price target.
Forecasts frame the next test
The broader Q3 consensus calls for USD 0.10 earnings per share and USD 76.97 million in revenue. That revenue estimate is USD 13.73 million above the USD 63.24 million level implied by a direct comparison with the reported second-quarter figure of USD 73.24 million? The comparison is not like-for-like because the source gives the prior-year Q3 revenue as USD 90.55 million. Against that historical benchmark, the consensus points to a USD 13.58 million decline.
What does Q3 imply for earnings?
The second-quarter result showed a sharp earnings variance: Universal Electronics reported USD 0.34 earnings per share against a USD 0.03 consensus estimate, a USD 0.31 difference. Revenue was USD 73.24 million versus an expected USD 78.13 million, according to MarketBeat. The gap between earnings and revenue performance makes the November report important for judging whether profitability can hold while sales remain below the prior-year comparison.
