BlackRock Inc. (US09247X1019) closed at USD 1,090.27 on the NYSE on September 21, 2026, gaining 1.92 percent from the prior close. The move came as current estimates pointed to quarterly earnings of USD 14.24 per share and revenue of USD 7.44 billion.

Estimates point to higher earnings

According to Yahoo Finance on September 21, 2026, the latest consensus forecast calls for quarterly EPS of USD 14.24, a 23.29 percent increase from the comparable quarter of the prior year. The same estimate puts quarterly revenue at USD 7.44 billion, up 14.26 percent year over year.

The comparison gives the stock a clear earnings anchor: revenue growth is projected at 14.26 percent, while EPS growth is expected to reach 23.29 percent. For investors, the wider EPS increase matters because it implies stronger earnings conversion than top-line growth in the forecast period.

Last reported quarter beat estimates

MarketBeat reports that BlackRock announced its latest earnings on July 15, 2026, with EPS of USD 13.91 for the quarter. That result exceeded the consensus estimate of USD 12.69 by USD 1.22, while quarterly revenue increased 30.6 percent year over year.

The most recent reported quarter therefore delivered a larger revenue increase than the current 14.26 percent forecast for the next comparable period. That creates a demanding comparison base: the next results will be measured not only against the USD 12.69 EPS estimate from the prior report, but also against a 30.6 percent historical revenue increase.

Stock remains below yearly high

Market data for September 21, 2026, show a 52-week range of USD 917.39 to USD 1,219.94, with volume of 511,518 shares and a market capitalization of USD 168.95 billion. The closing price of USD 1,090.27 was USD 129.67 below the 52-week high, leaving the shares below the upper end of their annual range despite the daily gain.

BlackRock's full-year consensus forecast cited by Yahoo Finance on September 21, 2026, stands at USD 55.96 EPS and USD 28.82 billion in revenue. Those figures imply year-over-year increases of 16.37 percent for earnings and 19.02 percent for revenue.
