The combination gives the stock a clear market reference while Carrier works through a weaker profit comparison.

Goldman trims target to USD 74

Goldman Sachs had lowered its target from USD 85.00 to USD 74.00 on September 30, 2026, while keeping its Buy rating, according to Markets Insider. The later October 5 update confirmed the USD 74.00 target rather than introducing a new level.

Revenue rises while profit falls

For the second quarter of 2026, Carrier reported revenue of USD 6.35 billion, up 3.93 percent from USD 6.11 billion in the second quarter of 2025, according to Markets Insider. Net profit fell to USD 501.00 million from USD 591.00 million over the same comparison, a decline of 15.23 percent. The split between higher sales and lower profit makes execution and cost control central to the next report.

Third-quarter guidance sets the next test

Carrier's third-quarter 2026 sales guidance was USD 6.00 billion, according to MarketScreener in its September 15, 2026 report. That figure provides the next operating benchmark after second-quarter revenue growth of 3.93 percent, but the prior profit decline leaves less room for an earnings shortfall.
