Revenue reached USD 10.78 billion

CRH reported second-quarter revenue of USD 10.78 billion for the period ended June 30, 2026, compared with USD 10.21 billion in the same period a year earlier. Net income reached USD 1.49 billion, up from USD 1.32 billion, according to Markets Insider. The revenue comparison represents growth of 5.58 percent, giving investors a concrete operating counterpoint to the lower analyst target.

Stock remains below its yearly high

CRH's NYSE price of USD 85.00 on October 20, 2026 sat between a 52-week low of USD 78.62 and a high of USD 131.55. The quote was 35.39 percent below the high and 8.11 percent above the low. Trading volume stood at 1,363,786 shares, while the market capitalization was USD 56.5 billion.

Valuation meets an October date

The trailing price-to-earnings ratio was 14.97 on October 20, 2026, and the dividend yield was 2.00 percent. CRH's next scheduled reporting date is October 29, 2026, when it will publish third-quarter 2026 results before the market opens, according to the company's investor page. CRH also describes its business as a building materials provider serving infrastructure, commercial construction and residential markets.

CRH employs 83,032 people across 3,961 operating locations in 29 countries, according to MarketScreener. That scale provides context for the upcoming report, but the immediate market question is whether the second-quarter revenue increase can continue while analysts reset their targets.

Target cut and results date shape the picture

Barclays' USD 110.00 target remains materially above the USD 85.00 NYSE quote, while the euro indication is EUR 75.67 at Lang & Schwarz. The October 29 results date is the next concrete test for revenue, earnings and management commentary.
