$RPM (RPM International) reported earnings on October 6, 2026, covering its most recent fiscal quarter. The headline number: quarterly revenue grew 7.2% year over year. That's a solid top-line result for a Basic Materials company operating in a sector that doesn't typically reward fast growth.
We don't have a verified EPS figure for this quarter, so we're not going to speculate on earnings-per-share growth. Check the live page at acceinvestments.com/stocks/RPM for the latest figures as they're confirmed. We also don't have guidance commentary from management at this time.

Index returns, picks recap, score movers - every Sunday. No fluff.
Quality: 77/100. This is the standout. RPM's return on equity is 21.4%, net margin is 8.4%, and FCF yield is 5.3%. Earnings quality is flagged as strong. For a company in Basic Materials, those are genuinely good numbers, not just adequate ones.
Value: 66/100. The trailing P/E is 18.4 and the forward P/E drops to 16.6, suggesting the market expects earnings to grow from here. The analyst consensus target is $129.80 against a current price of $95.30, implying meaningful upside in the analyst view.
Growth: 28/100. The 7.2% revenue growth is real, but the Growth score reflects a broader picture that the model weighs less favorably.
Momentum: 38/100. The 1-year return is -18.4%, which explains the weak momentum reading. The stock has lost ground over the past year even as the business has continued to generate cash.
One figure worth flagging: the 6-model fair value estimate comes in at $75.14, which is 21.2% below the current price of $95.30. That's a meaningful gap. The analyst target and the model-based fair value are pointing in opposite directions, which makes $RPM a stock where the valuation debate is genuinely open.
The 2.1% dividend yield adds a modest income component while shareholders wait for the price to resolve in one direction or the other.
