Equifax Inc. (US2944291051) starts the new week on the New York Stock Exchange with a stable analyst backdrop. Consensus data compiled by MarketScreener show that a majority of brokers rate the shares positively and expect further revenue growth in 2026.
What analysts currently expect
According to the consensus overview on MarketScreener, around 20 analysts cover Equifax, with most ratings in the Buy or Outperform range and a smaller group recommending Hold. The average 12-month target price reported there stands clearly above the recent NYSE trading level, indicating upside potential according to these brokers.
The same consensus set projects continued top-line expansion, with analysts expecting mid-single-digit to high-single-digit percentage revenue growth for 2026 compared with 2025. Earnings per share are likewise forecast to increase, reflecting both higher volumes in data and analytics and ongoing efficiency measures.
How Equifax compares in its sector
In the credit reporting and data analytics sector, Equifax competes with Experian and TransUnion, which are also followed closely by Wall Street brokers. Sector commentary from U.S. financial media highlights that demand for consumer and business credit data remains robust, supported by steady lending activity and continued digitization trends.
Against this backdrop, analysts see Equifax as a key beneficiary of structural growth in data-driven risk management and identity verification. At the same time, they track the stock’s valuation premium versus peers like Experian and TransUnion, which can limit further recommendation upgrades if earnings momentum slows.
