Accenture plc is scheduled to release its fourth-quarter earnings report before the opening bell on Thursday, October 1. Analysts expect adjusted earnings of $3.18 per share, up from $3.03 a year earlier, and revenue of about $18.04 billion, compared with $17.6 billion previously. Accenture pays $1.63 per share quarterly, or $6.52 annually, meaning an investor would need approximately 920 shares worth $162,950 to target $500 in monthly dividend income at the stated rate. The company’s shares closed at $177.12 after gaining 1.5% on Tuesday, while Susquehanna analyst James Friedman maintained a Neutral rating and raised his price target from $140 to $153. The older report described the release as third-quarter 2026 earnings and cited revenue of $18.03 billion, 5.6% year-over-year growth and strong demand for AI services; the newer report identifies it as fourth-quarter earnings and provides the more detailed estimates.
