ADT Reports 4% Revenue Growth and $0.24 Adjusted EPS in Third Quarter
ADT reported third-quarter 2026 revenue of $1.349 billion, up 4% from a year earlier, with adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.24 versus $0.23. The company also announced a pending all-cash acquisition by Thrive Holdings, expected to close in the first quarter of 2027.

What happened
ADT said third-quarter revenue rose 4% from a year earlier, while operating income and Adjusted EBITDA fell. After the quarter ended, it announced a pending all-cash acquisition at $10 per share, withdrew its prior guidance, and said the deal is expected to close in the first quarter of 2027, subject to approvals and other conditions.
Global impact / market context
The proposed cash deal sets a stated price for ADT shares if it closes, but it is not complete and depends on approvals and other conditions. With its prior guidance withdrawn, the company has not provided that earlier outlook.
What to watch
- Check whether the deal receives required approvals, because it cannot close without them.
- Check whether the expected first-quarter 2027 closing timing changes, because the deal remains subject to approvals and other conditions.
- Check ADT's next reported operating income, because it fell even as third-quarter revenue rose.
