Check Point Software Technologies plans to release its third-quarter 2026 financial results on November 2, 2026. Management will host a conference call at 8:30 a.m. ET on that same day to discuss the company's performance.
Why it matters
The company relies on consistent security subscription growth to offset current fluctuations in demand for its firewall appliances. Executives anticipate an improvement in firewall appliance performance throughout the second half of 2026.
Check Point projects third-quarter non-GAAP earnings per share between $2.43 and $2.53, with GAAP earnings expected to fall 70 cents below that figure. The firm also forecasts adjusted free cash flow between $235 million and $265 million.
