ADM stock traded at USD 81.69 on the NYSE on September 28, 2026, with a 0.70 percent session change and a 7.95 percent gap below its USD 88.75 52-week high. The latest earnings report showed adjusted quarterly EPS of USD 1.84 against a USD 1.49 consensus estimate, keeping earnings at the center of the market story.
Quarterly earnings beat estimates
MarketBeat reported on September 26, 2026, that ADM earned USD 1.84 per share in the quarter reported on August 4, 2026, exceeding the USD 1.49 consensus by USD 0.35. Revenue reached USD 22.68 billion and increased 7.20 percent year over year, although it came in below the USD 22.75 billion estimate.
The result gives ADM a clear earnings comparison, but the revenue miss limits the strength of the signal. The combination points to improved profitability in the reported quarter without eliminating the pressure on sales expectations.
Guidance sets the next benchmark
According to MarketBeat, ADM maintained fiscal 2026 adjusted EPS guidance of USD 5.15-5.60. That range gives investors a concrete benchmark against the reported USD 1.84 quarterly result and the current analyst forecast of USD 5.46 for the fiscal year.
