NIQ Global Intelligence (NIQ) Stock Analysis & Forecast
Sep 28 close
$17.58−0.25 (−1.4%)
Gekko Brief
AI summaryThis week NIQ continues to expand its product footprint, announcing an extension of its Health & Beauty measurement to cover $56 billion in Amazon Marketplace sales, the launch of TDLinx Audiences for local targeting, and findings that most U.S. consumers now use AI tools while shopping. The company also announced a friendly bid to acquire The U Group & Co Limited, framed as expanding trusted intelligence for the AI era. These items concern product expansion and a proposed acquisition rather than financial results.
NIQ closes at $17.58, down 1.4% on the day, with the price sitting above both its 50-day average of $15.95 and its 200-day average of $12.96, and the 50-day above the 200-day. Over three months the stock has returned 102.5%, though the one-month return is -7.8%. The GekkoIndex reads 57.6, placing it in the Neutral zone. Gekko Fair Value stands at $30.10, putting the current price 41.6% below that level.
The next earnings date falls on 12 November 2026, 44 days out and beyond a typical 20-trading-day holding window; the prior report on 10 August 2026 showed an EPS miss against estimate ($-0.03 versus $0.18) yet triggered a 42% reaction, with an average absolute reaction of 17.9% across recent quarters. Analyst coverage shows 11 buy and 2 hold ratings among 13 firms, with a consensus target of $19.69 implying 12% upside. No insider, Congress or unusual options activity is noted in their respective windows, and one billionaire holder and one trailblazer holder are on record.
