The first half of 2026 totals $4.67 per share, about 14% more than a year earlier. Over the last 20 quarters, Grand Canyon beat the EPS estimate 17 times. The most recent miss, in Q3 2025, was by 0.02%.
Grand Canyon reported Q3 between October 27 and November 6 in each of the past five years. That points to early November 2026 for the next report. It will show whether the first-half growth carries into the third quarter.
