NIQ Global Intelligence reported third-quarter 2026 results and revised its full-year outlook, while also authorizing a $150 million share buyback program. The company raised its FY2026 adjusted EPS guidance to $1.16-$1.20 from $1.08-$1.12 and lifted its sales forecast to $4.513B-$4.520B from $4.496B-$4.510B. For Q4, NIQ guided adjusted EPS to $0.43-$0.47 and sales to $1.198B-$1.202B, both roughly in line with analyst estimates. Despite the positive earnings revision and buyback, the stock closed down 2.81% at $19.22, likely reflecting broader market concerns or profit-taking. The news overall leans bullish, but the negative price reaction suggests caution.
