The company now

Moody's reported third-quarter 2026 revenue of $2,023 million, up 1 percent from $2,007 million a year earlier 2. The company also reaffirmed its guidance for full-year 2026 2.

Moody's Analytics (MA), the data and software unit, grew revenue 3 percent to $936 million, and annual recurring revenue (ARR) rose 8 percent to $3,688 million 2. Moody's Investors Service (MIS), the credit ratings arm, saw revenue slip 1 percent to $1,087 million, mainly on lower leveraged finance issuance, meaning fewer loans and bonds from heavily indebted companies 2.

Investment grade revenue rose 18 percent, helped by technology-sector financing, including issuance tied to AI and to hyperscaler investment 2.

Full-year guidance still calls for MIS revenue to rise in the high-single-digit percent range, against a 1 percent decline in the third quarter 2. Diluted earnings per share is guided to $16.00 to $16.50 2.
