Fair Isaac stock (ISIN US3032501047) closed at USD 863.09 on the NYSE on September 25, 2026, gaining 0.77 percent from the prior close. The price stood 56.80 percent below the 52-week high of USD 1,998.01, making the valuation debate inseparable from the company’s operating growth.

Q3 revenue rose 25.7 percent

Fair Isaac delivered USD 674.19 million in Q3 FY2026 revenue, up 25.7 percent year over year, while non-GAAP earnings per share reached USD 12.18, an increase of 42.1 percent. Zacks reported that the earnings figure exceeded consensus by 1.33 percent, while revenue fell 0.75 percent short of the consensus estimate.

The mix was uneven. Scores revenue increased 41 percent to USD 458.9 million, while Software revenue rose 2 percent to USD 215.3 million. Platform annual recurring revenue advanced 62 percent to USD 413 million, giving the software transition a measurable growth engine.

Guidance rose as competition grew

Management lifted fiscal 2026 revenue guidance to USD 2.53 billion from USD 2.45 billion and raised non-GAAP EPS guidance to USD 42.43 from USD 40.45, according to Zacks. The figures put execution against the software strategy alongside the company’s dependence on high-margin Scores revenue.

The counterweight is regulatory and competitive pressure in mortgage credit scoring. Barchart reported on September 8, 2026, that an FHFA directive expanded lender access to VantageScore 4.0, a development that could pressure FICO pricing in mortgage originations.

Analyst target remains above price

Investing.com reported on September 9, 2026, that Raymond James maintained an Outperform rating and a USD 1,750.00 price target. That target lies 102.76 percent above the September 25 price, leaving investors to weigh substantial implied upside against the company’s competitive and regulatory exposure.
