The final two weeks of October 2026 bring one of the most consequential stretches of the quarterly earnings season. The calendar is particularly dense for technology, industrials, healthcare and consumer-facing businesses. For investors, the main question is not simply whether companies beat consensus estimates. Guidance on AI spending, cloud demand, semiconductor orders, consumer resilience and financing costs may determine the market’s response. This calendar was prepared on October 19. Reporting dates can change, and third-party earnings calendars sometimes disagree; investors should check the latest company investor-relations announcements before trading around a release.
Tuesday, October 20
GE Aerospace (GE), General Motors (GM), RTX (RTX), 3M (MMM), Netflix (NFLX), Intuitive Surgical (ISRG), United Airlines (UAL), Capital One (COF). Netflix is expected after the US market close.
Wednesday, October 21
Meta Platforms (META), Tesla (TSLA), IBM (IBM), Lam Research (LRCX), Texas Instruments (TXN), AT&T (T), Abbott Laboratories (ABT). The technology-heavy evening session will be watched especially closely.
Thursday, October 22
Procter & Gamble (PG), Lockheed Martin (LMT), Union Pacific (UNP), Valero Energy (VLO), Western Digital (WDC), Nokia (NOK), Comcast (CMCSA), Honeywell (HON). Calendars differ on some names and times; confirm company investor-relations notices.
Friday, October 23
American Express (AXP) and SLB (SLB), among the more closely followed scheduled reports.
Tuesday, October 27
Visa (V), Coca-Cola (KO) and Robinhood (HOOD) appear on forward-looking calendars; some schedules remain provisional.
Wednesday, October 28
Microsoft (MSFT), Alphabet (GOOGL/GOOG), KLA (KLAC), Amphenol (APH) and SK hynix are among the major anticipated reports. Alphabet’s date is not consistent across all calendars, so verify its investor-relations announcement.
Thursday, October 29
Amazon (AMZN), Intel (INTC), Coinbase (COIN), Eli Lilly (LLY), Mastercard (MA), Merck (MRK) and Caterpillar (CAT) are listed in several forward calendars. Amazon’s date should be reconfirmed.
Friday, October 30
Exxon Mobil (XOM), Chevron (CVX) and AbbVie (ABBV) feature on forward calendars. Some providers also list Apple (AAPL) on October 30, while others expect November 2, so Apple’s date is not treated as confirmed here.
Wednesday, October 21 stands out for Meta, Tesla, IBM and Lam Research. Their reports should offer very different perspectives on AI infrastructure, advertising, enterprise technology, electric vehicles and semiconductor equipment. The following week brings the expected Microsoft and Alphabet reports, where cloud growth and the cost of building AI capacity will receive close scrutiny. Intel’s anticipated October 29 results could provide an important read on the PC and server processor markets. Beyond technology, the calendar includes large industrial, financial, energy and pharmaceutical companies, offering a broader picture of economic activity. Times are US Eastern unless a company specifies otherwise; before-market and after-market designations should be checked individually. This is a selected calendar of prominent companies, not an exhaustive list of every earnings release.
