Accenture stock sets an October 1 earnings date

Accenture stock stood at USD 183.52 on the NYSE on September 23, 2026, with a market capitalization of USD 112,303,615,844. The company will publish fiscal Q4 and full-year 2026 results on October 1, a date listed by MarketBeat.

Q3 revenue rose 5.6 percent

Accenture reported fiscal Q3 revenue of USD 18.72 billion, up 5.6 percent from the same quarter a year earlier, according to MarketBeat. Fiscal Q3 EPS reached USD 3.80, exceeding the USD 3.70 consensus estimate by USD 0.10. Revenue still came in below the USD 18.78 billion consensus estimate, making profitability the stronger part of the quarter.

The comparison matters because Accenture enters its next report with a wider gap between earnings delivery and sales momentum. For investors, the October release will show whether margin strength can offset slower demand in consulting and managed services.

Guidance points to slower growth

Accenture's fiscal 2026 local-currency revenue-growth guidance stands at 3 to 4 percent, down from the previous 3 to 5 percent range, according to Trefis. The same analysis puts fourth-quarter revenue guidance at USD 17.75 billion to USD 18.4 billion for the quarter ended August 31, 2026.

The upper end of that range would imply a more demanding finish than the latest revenue trend, while the lower end would reinforce the cautious guidance reset. That makes the October 1 report a test of demand conversion rather than a simple earnings calendar event.

Deutsche Bank target stays below price

Deutsche Bank raised its Accenture price target to USD 175 from USD 136 while keeping a Hold rating on September 18, 2026, as reported by MarketScreener. The new target remains USD 8.52 below the September 23 price of USD 183.52, placing the analyst view below the latest quote.

Accenture stock was down 0.11 percent on September 23, 2026. Its 52-week range was USD 118.15 to USD 291.09, leaving the price closer to the yearly low than the yearly high and keeping the October results central to the next valuation comparison.
