On August 7, 2026, the prominent investment firm Goldman Sachs maintained its "Neutral" stock rating for Fiserv. However, the firm lowered its price target on the stock to $54.00 from a previous $60.00. A price target is an analyst's estimate of a stock's future price, reflecting their investment firm analysis.
This rating update follows Fiserv's announcement of a reduced financial forecast for 2026. The company now expects its full-year organic revenue to range from a 1% decline to flat. This represents a significant change from its previous revenue outlook of 1% to 3% growth.
Fiserv also lowered its adjusted earnings per share (EPS) outlook to between $7.20 and $7.40, down from the prior projection of $8.00 to $8.30. Adjusted EPS is a key profitability metric that removes certain one-time items to show a company's core operational performance.
The revised forecast was influenced by recent quarterly earnings that missed expectations. Fiserv reported adjusted revenue of $4.96 billion, a 4% decrease from the previous year. As highlighted by Zacks, the company's financial results were impacted by a revenue miss and pressure on its profit margins.
