Ford Motor Company shares closed higher on Wednesday, July 29, 2026, the day after the automaker reported second-quarter results that beat Wall Street expectations. Ford posted adjusted earnings per share of $0.42, topping the $0.35 analyst consensus, on revenue of $48.3 billion versus an expected $47.51 billion.
The stock climbed as much as 5.1% intraday to $15.73 before settling higher on the day. Management raised its full-year 2026 guidance, lifting its adjusted EBIT outlook to $10 billion-$11 billion and its free-cash-flow target to $6 billion-$7 billion, while holding capital-expenditure plans steady at $9.5 billion-$10.5 billion.
The results and improved outlook drew a wave of positive analyst reaction: Citigroup upgraded Ford to buy from neutral and raised its price target to $20, while other firms, including Deutsche Bank, also lifted their price targets following the report.
