Earnings Summary
Garmin’s recent quarterly performance shows a steady revenue increase from $1.535 billion in Q1 2025 to $2.024 billion in Q2 2026, with EPS rising from $1.61 to $2.81, consistently beating analyst estimates across all reported quarters; the company’s Q4 2025 EPS of $2.79 surpassed the $2.39225 estimate, and Q1 2026 EPS of $2.08 exceeded the $1.83843 estimate. Historically, Garmin has maintained a YoY revenue growth trajectory, with EPS generally outperforming expectations, indicating a pattern of robust earnings relative to guidance; the company’s guidance upgrades in Q3 2026 reflect confidence in its fitness and high‑end cycling segments. Recent news reports that Garmin lifted its full‑year revenue guidance to approximately $8.15 billion after strong Q3 2026 sales, while noting softer demand for automotive domain controllers and higher memory component costs as near‑term challenges; the company also highlighted increased share repurchase activity.

What GRMN's own history says about today's numbers

Realized volatility (21d)
40.0% 90th pct
Below its peak
-7.0%
vs 200-day average
+14.2%
Up days (1y)
51%

Garmin Ltd. is currently running 40.0% annualised volatility over the last 21 sessions. Measured against GRMN's own 13 years of daily returns rather than a market-wide average, that is the 90th percentile — elevated for this stock, against a typical reading of 22.9%.

GRMN is trading -7.0% below its running peak. Across 13 full years on file, its median worst-drawdown-in-a-year was -16.2%, and the deepest was -44.1% in 2015. The current pullback is therefore shallower than what this stock gives back in a typical year, which is context worth having before treating it as a dislocation.

Price sits +14.2% from its 200-day moving average. Against every other day in its history, that gap ranks at the 73rd percentile — a somewhat wider gap than its own norm. Over the past year GRMN closed higher on 51% of sessions, and it is currently 2 sessions into a rising streak.

On November specifically: over 13 years of records, GRMN finished the month higher 10 of 13 times, with a median return of +3.8% and an average of +2.9%. Its strongest month historically has been February at +6.0% on average, its weakest December at -1.8%.

Overnight risk is measurable too: GRMN has opened more than 2% away from the prior close in 131 of 3,268 sessions (4.0% of the time), with the largest gaps running +10.8% and -10.6%.

Across the last 4 dated reports on file, GRMN moved an average of 1.1% in the session after earnings, closing higher 2 of those 4 times, with a median move of +0.3% and a largest of +2.7%.

All figures computed from 3,269 daily closes between 2013-11-06 and 2026-11-05, split-adjusted, recomputed daily. Percentiles are against GRMN's own 13-year history, not a peer group or index.
