Akzo Nobel (OTC: AKZOY) reported its third-quarter 2026 earnings results before the market opened on October 21, 2026. The company makes paints and coatings, including Dulux. Earnings per share were $0.38, below the $0.42 estimate. Earnings per share show how much profit is attributed to each share.
Revenue was approximately $2.85 billion, compared with an estimate of $2.96 billion. This represents a revenue shortfall of about $110 million. Revenue measures sales before costs are deducted, so this miss in sales performance is separate from the earnings per share result.
Despite the misses, Akzo Nobel’s core profit exceeded expectations, as highlighted by Reuters. This does not conflict with the earnings per share miss, as core profit and earnings per share measure financial performance differently. The provided Reuters item does not give a specific core profit figure or indicate how far it exceeded expectations. Seeking Alpha published an earnings-call transcript, but the provided data does not include its contents.
Akzo Nobel’s trailing price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio is 16.44, indicating its stock price is 16.44 times its earnings over the past year. Its price-to-sales (P/S) ratio stands at 3.16. These valuation metrics provide important context for stock analysis but do not alter the reported revenue and earnings per share shortfalls.
