Revenue has grown through the table while earnings per share have fallen. Annual EPS rose from $11.28 in 2022 to $12.28 in 2023 and $12.89 in 2024, then dropped about 42% to $7.46 in 2025.

Q1 2026's $0.21 is the lowest quarter shown, though analysts had expected a loss. Herc beat EPS estimates in 9 of the last 20 quarters, including the last four.

Q3 results came out between October 20 and October 28 in each of the past four years, pointing to late October 2026 for the next report. It will show whether quarterly EPS keeps rising from the Q1 low while revenue stays near $1.2 billion or more.
