Bunge Global reported strong Q2 2026 results on Jul. 29, with adjusted EPS of $2, up from $1.31 a year earlier, driven primarily by strong performance in its Soybean and Softseed Processing and Refining segments amid improving market conditions. The company also reported EPS of $3.47, up from $2.61 a year earlier, and repurchased approximately $250 million of shares, completing the $2 billion buyback program tied to the Viterra transaction. Investor sentiment was further supported by Bunge raising its full-year adjusted EPS outlook to $9.25 to $9.75.
For the fiscal year ending in December 2026, analysts expect Bunge Global’s adjusted EPS to grow 28.4% year-over-year to $9.72. The company’s earnings surprise history is mixed. It beat the consensus estimates in three of the last four quarters while missing on another occasion.
Among the eight analysts covering the stock, the consensus rating is a “Strong Buy.” That’s based on seven “Strong Buy” ratings and one “Moderate Buy.”
This configuration is slightly less bullish than three months ago, with eight “Strong Buy” ratings on the stock.
On Aug. 11, UBS analyst Manav Gupta reiterated a “Buy” rating on Bunge Global, with a price target of $145.
The mean price target of $137.60 represents a premium of 17% to BG's current price. The Street-high price target of $150 suggests a 27.6% potential upside.
