Valued at a market cap of $48.9 billion, Teradyne, Inc. (TER) designs, develops, manufactures, and sells automated test systems and robotics products. The North Reading, Massachusetts-based company is scheduled to announce its fiscal Q1 earnings for 2026 in the near future.
Ahead of this event, analysts expect this tech company to report a profit of $2.08 per share, up 177.3% from $0.75 per share in the year-ago quarter. The company has topped Wall Street’s earnings estimates in each of the last four quarters. In Q4 2025, TER’s EPS of $1.80 handily outpaced the consensus estimates by a notable margin of 32.4%.
For the current fiscal year, ending in December, analysts expect TER to report a profit of $5.91 per share, representing a 49.2% increase from $3.96 per share in fiscal 2025. Its EPS is expected to further grow 28.9% year-over-year to $7.62 in fiscal 2027.
TER has rallied 271.3% over the past 52 weeks, significantly outpacing both the S&P 500 Index's ($SPX) 16.7% return and the State Street Technology Select Sector SPDR ETF’s (XLK) 29.3% uptick over the same time period.
On Mar. 30, TER shares plunged 6.5% as escalating geopolitical tensions linked to the Iran conflict heightened concerns over global supply chain stability. Beyond the usual impact on oil markets, the situation raised fresh worries about disruptions in the supply of critical industrial gases like helium, an essential input in semiconductor manufacturing, adding to investor unease around the sector’s near-term outlook.
Wall Street analysts are moderately optimistic about TER’s stock, with a "Moderate Buy" rating overall. Among 17 analysts covering the stock, 11 recommend "Strong Buy," one advises a "Moderate Buy,” and five suggest "Hold." The mean price target for TER is $311.20, indicating a 1.4% potential upside from the current levels.
