Cushman & Wakefield reports record Q3 2026 revenue and EPS beat

Cushman & Wakefield announced third‑quarter 2026 results on November 4, posting adjusted earnings per share of $0.37 and revenue of $2.81 billion, both above analyst expectations. Revenue grew 8% in local currency year‑over‑year, while adjusted EPS rose 28% from the prior year quarter. Management reaffirmed its full‑year guidance for 6%‑8% revenue growth and 18%‑23% EPS growth and highlighted progress in debt reduction. The stock gained roughly 3.9% in pre‑market trading following the release.

The earnings beat and higher guidance suggest continued earnings momentum, which may support the recent 3.9% pre‑market price increase. The company’s debt‑to‑EBITDA improvement to 2.9x and over $800 million of debt repayments strengthen its balance sheet, potentially enhancing financial flexibility for investors.
