NIQ Global reports Q1 adjusted EPS 15c, consensus 10c

Reports Q1 revenue $1.072B, consensus $1.05B. “Q1 was a solid start to 2026, with growth, margin expansion and free cash flow improvement – all while we continued to accelerate our AI investments,” said Jim Peck, Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We believe NIQ is well positioned to win in AI because our advantage goes beyond scaled, permissioned data to the context layer we build on top of it – the semantic framework, product intelligence and vertical expertise that make our data decision-grade and increasingly essential to how commerce operates. As AI agents begin to influence discovery and transactions, NIQ is extending its role from measurement and analytics toward Commerce Intelligence – helping clients win on the agentic shelf, deepen workflow embedment and unlock new monetization opportunities over time.”
