Garmin Ltd. (ISIN CH0114405324) was last at USD 294.13 on the NYSE on September 25, 2026 at 3:59 p.m. ET, with the stock valued at USD 56.7 billion. The next scheduled earnings release gives investors a clear date for the next test of Garmin's growth story.

October 28 sets the next test

According to Yahoo Finance on September 23, 2026, Garmin will release its third-quarter 2026 results before the NYSE opens on October 28 and hold its earnings call at 10:30 a.m. EDT. That date places the upcoming report at the center of the stock's near-term valuation debate.

The latest reported quarter provides a demanding benchmark. MarketBeat reported that second-quarter earnings per share reached USD 2.81 versus USD 2.30 consensus, while revenue rose 11.4 percent year over year to USD 2.02 billion from analyst expectations of USD 1.93 billion.

Beat supports the valuation

The earnings comparison matters because Garmin's current market value already reflects sustained profitability. The latest quarter delivered a USD 0.51 per-share beat, and the 11.4 percent revenue increase gives the October report a concrete growth hurdle.

MarketBeat said on September 4, 2026, that the average 12-month analyst target was USD 310.17, while the consensus rating was Moderate Buy. That target stands 5.45 percent above Garmin's September 25 price, leaving the earnings release as the next test of whether estimates can move higher.

Stock remains below its yearly high

Garmin's September 25 price was USD 20.15 below the 52-week high of USD 314.28 and USD 107.46 above the 52-week low of USD 186.67. The session range was USD 291.89 to USD 297.19, with volume of 549,253 shares and a daily change of negative 0.31 percent.

For investors, the central issue is the balance between a strong recent earnings comparison and a share price positioned well above its yearly low. Garmin's next reported figures, due on October 28, will show whether second-quarter momentum carried into the third quarter.
