By Adriano Marchese

Gartner shares slipped in premarket trading Tuesday after the company's 2026 guidance came in below Wall Street expectations and reported lower fourth-quarter earnings.

Shares fell over 18% ahead of the morning bell to $164.99.

The research and advisory company on Tuesday said it expects total revenue of $6.46 billion in 2026, down from $6.5 billion in 2025 and below analyst forecasts of $6.71 billion.

Net income is expected to rise to around $809 million in 2026, up from the $729 million in 2026 but below analyst forecasts of a greater rise to $979.4 million, according to FactSet.

On an earnings per-share basis, the company expects about $11.38, and adjusted EPS of around $12.30. FactSet-polled analysts expected adjusted EPS of $13.54.

For the fourth quarter, net income declined to $242 million, or $3.36 a share, compared with $399 million, or $5.11 a share, in the same quarter a year ago.

Adjusted earnings came to $3.94 a share. According to FactSet, analysts were expecting $3.51 a share.

Revenue rose to $1.75 billion from $1.72 billion, in line with analyst expectations.
