TransUnion's Q3 2026 revenue rose 12.2% year on year to $1.31 billion, matching analysts' estimates. Adjusted earnings per share of $1.25 beat estimates by 3.2%, but its Q4 2026 revenue guidance of $1.28 billion came in 1.3% below consensus.

What happened
TransUnion reported third-quarter adjusted earnings of $1.25 per share, above the $1.20 analyst average, on revenue of $1.31 billion, up 12.2% and in line with estimates. The company raised its full-year revenue and earnings outlook, but its fourth-quarter revenue guidance came in slightly below analyst expectations.
Global impact / market context
The company earned more than analysts expected and grew revenue, and management raised its full-year outlook despite pressure from mortgages and interest rates. But the softer fourth-quarter revenue guidance suggests the next few months may be slower than analysts had hoped, which matters to anyone holding or considering the stock.
What to watch
- Check whether the company meets its raised full-year revenue and earnings targets, since the outlook was just increased and missing it would weaken confidence.
- Watch fourth-quarter revenue against the $1.28 billion guidance, because it came in below analyst expectations and could signal slowing growth.
- Monitor signs of mortgage and rate pressure mentioned in the results, since these were cited as offsets to otherwise broad-based growth.
