Updated on Nov. 3, 2026 in Public Companies
Thomson Reuters reported third-quarter 2026 revenue of $1.83 billion, up 10%, and adjusted earnings per share of 81 cents. The company raised its full-year 2026 organic revenue growth guidance to 8.5% to 9.0% from a prior range of about 8%.
Why it matters
The results show revenue growth and margins ahead of prior expectations, a signal to investors that the company's existing businesses are performing well. The stock has lagged the broader market, with shares down 6.3% this year against a 10% gain in the S&P 500 as of Monday.
Third-quarter revenue rose 10% to $1.83 billion with adjusted earnings of 81 cents per share, while organic revenue guidance for 2026 moved up to 8.5% to 9.0% from about 8%. The filing does not say how the majority stake sale in the global print business will shift reported revenue in future quarters.
The players

The details
Thomson Reuters reported third-quarter results on Tuesday, November 3, 2026, and raised its full-year organic revenue outlook. The company also sold a majority stake in its global print business, and organic revenue, which tracks sales from existing businesses on a constant currency basis, was the metric used for the revised forecast.
Timeline
Q3 2026: Third-quarter revenue rose 10% to $1.83 billion.
Monday, November 2, 2026: Thomson Reuters shares were down 6.3% year-to-date while the S&P 500 was up 10%.
Tuesday, November 3, 2026: Thomson Reuters reported third-quarter results and raised its guidance.
Market Landscape
Thomson Reuters' 6.3% year-to-date share decline stands in contrast to the S&P 500's 10% gain this year, even as the company raised its revenue outlook. The divergence suggests investors are weighing the company's results against factors beyond its quarterly top-line performance.
For investors holding Thomson Reuters stock, the raised revenue outlook is a data point to weigh against a share price that has trailed the broader market this year. The update does not change the company's dividend or pricing for subscribers, as the extraction does not address either.
The takeaway
Revenue growth ahead of expectations can still trail broader market gains when stock performance reflects factors beyond a single quarter. Readers tracking the company should watch whether the print business sale changes how future results are reported.
