Published on 09/23/2026 at 15:05 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWS
Old Dominion stock opened at USD 175.36 on Nasdaq on September 22, 2026, while the latest quarter delivered EPS of USD 1.68 and revenue of USD 1.55 billion. The earnings result gives the freight carrier a concrete operating reference as its shares remain below the reported 52-week high of USD 252.03.
Quarterly earnings beat estimates
According to MarketBeat on September 22, 2026, Old Dominion reported EPS of USD 1.68 for the quarter ended July 2026, compared with consensus of USD 1.54. The USD 0.14 beat is the clearest quantified earnings signal in the current setup.
Revenue reached USD 1.55 billion in the quarter ended July 2026, up 10.4 percent from the comparable period, according to StockStory on September 23, 2026. The combination of double-digit revenue growth and an earnings beat makes the July quarter more important than the single-day opening price.
Analysts see a wide target gap
According to The Globe and Mail on September 23, 2026, Wells Fargo maintained a Buy rating and a USD 250.00 price target. The same report cited a Moderate Buy consensus with an average target of USD 239.00, while Citi had upgraded the stock to Buy with a USD 223.00 target on September 9, 2026.
That target spread matters because the reported September 22 price of USD 175.36 stood USD 52.29 below the average 12-month target cited by MarketBeat. The market is therefore weighing a strong quarterly comparison against a share price still USD 77.33 below its 52-week high.
Stock remains below yearly high
Old Dominion opened at USD 175.36 on Nasdaq on September 22, 2026, with a market capitalization of USD 36.36 billion. The reported 52-week range was USD 126.01 to USD 252.03, placing the opening price USD 49.35 above the low and USD 77.33 below the high.
The valuation context is demanding: the September 22 data cited a price-to-earnings ratio of 33.79 and a PEG ratio of 2.90. The stock also stood USD 30.23 below its 50-day moving average of USD 205.59 and USD 33.70 below its 200-day average of USD 209.06, making the earnings beat a fundamental counterweight to weaker chart positioning.
