CBRE reports Q3 profit beat as infrastructure services drive growth

On October 22, CBRE reported Q3 2026 revenue of $11,517 million, GAAP EPS of $1.52 and core EPS of $2.05. Revenue rose 12.7% in USD, while GAAP EPS increased 25.6% and core EPS rose 28.1% from the prior-year quarter. Management maintained 2026 core EPS guidance of $7.80 to $7.90 and said it expects nearly $7 billion of infrastructure services revenue in 2027, alongside a path to 15% core EPS growth.

The earnings report leaves CBRE's 2026 core EPS outlook unchanged while showing stronger growth in infrastructure services and continued pressure in real-estate capital-markets businesses. Management expects infrastructure expansion to partly offset weaker capital-markets activity.
