Summary
Marsh & McLennan reported solid third-quarter 2026 results, with revenue up 8% to $6.9 billion and adjusted EPS up 10% to $2.03. Underlying revenue growth was 5%, reflecting organic expansion across the business. The company also continued its capital return program, repurchasing $500 million of stock in the quarter and $2.0 billion year-to-date.
A conference call is scheduled for October 15, 2026, where management will discuss the results and outlook. For retail investors, the key takeaways are the healthy top-line growth and double-digit adjusted EPS increase, which suggest the business is performing well.
The divergence between GAAP and adjusted EPS for the nine-month period is due to one-time items, including Greensill litigation costs, which are excluded from the adjusted measure. The company also repaid €550 million of maturing senior notes, a routine debt management action. No red flags are present in this filing. The results are consistent with a stable, well-capitalized company executing on its strategy.
