Liberty Energy stock traded at USD 18.77 on the NYSE on September 22, 2026, with a near-term resistance level of USD 19.22. The company delivered second-quarter revenue of USD 1.19 billion, giving the stock a fundamental result to weigh against the still cautious share-price setup.

Revenue beats consensus

According to MarketBeat on September 22, 2026, Liberty Energy reported second-quarter earnings per share of USD 0.09, exceeding the USD 0.08 consensus estimate by USD 0.01. Revenue reached USD 1.19 billion against a USD 1.09 billion consensus estimate, while year-over-year revenue increased 14.0 percent.

The comparison is important because earnings per share declined from USD 0.12 in the same quarter of the prior year, even as revenue expanded. The reported second-quarter net margin was 2.92 percent, showing that the top-line gain did not translate into equivalent earnings growth.

UBS raises target to USD 35

MarketBeat reports that UBS raised its Liberty Energy price target from USD 34.00 to USD 35.00 and kept a Buy rating in a research note dated September 14, 2026. The broker action contrasts with the average one-year target of USD 29.5455 from the thirteen brokerages cited in the same September 22, 2026 overview.

That target spread leaves the market with a clear counter-factor: operational revenue growth is visible, but the lower year-over-year earnings-per-share figure and 2.92 percent net margin keep profitability central to the valuation discussion. MarketBeat also reported a market capitalization of USD 3.09 billion on September 22, 2026.
