Earnings Today: PG, Spotify and Honeywell Report Pre-Market

By Daniel Hartley · · 7 min read

Three large-cap names report before the opening bell on Thursday, October 22, 2026: Procter & Gamble, Spotify and Honeywell. This preview covers who reports and when, the consensus EPS estimates on the table, and what a holder can check this morning, from exposure to price alerts, without predicting any outcome.

Who reports today, and at what time?

Three companies report before the market opens on Thursday, October 22, 2026: Procter & Gamble (PG), Spotify Technology (SPOT) and Honeywell International (HON). All three are pre-market prints, meaning the numbers land before regular US trading begins.

Here is the full slate for today, with the consensus EPS estimates analysts are carrying into each report:

TickerCompanyTimingConsensus EPS estimate
PGProcter & Gamble Company (The)Pre-market$1.89
SPOTSpotify Technology S.A.Pre-market$3.10
HONHoneywell International Inc.Pre-market$2.17

These are consensus estimates, the average of what analysts expect, and nothing more. They are a reference point, not a forecast of the actual result.

What does a pre-market earnings report mean if you hold the stock?

A pre-market report lands before the 9:30 a.m. ET opening bell, so you see the headline numbers before you can trade at the regular open. The figures hit the wires, trade in the thin pre-market session, and then the stock opens for everyone at 9:30.

That timing matters for a holder in a few concrete ways:

None of today's three are after-hours reports, but the principle is identical: numbers released when the market is shut show up as a gap when it reopens.

What should a holder actually do this morning?

The useful work this morning is checking your own position, not guessing the result. A holder can run through a short, factual checklist before any of these names prints.

Check your exposure to today's reporters

First, know whether you even hold PG, SPOT or HON, and how large each position is relative to the rest of your book. If you track everything in one place, this takes seconds. In PortfolioTrackr, the ALL PORTFOLIOS combined view shows every holding across your accounts at once, which is available on every plan for anyone with more than one portfolio.

If your holdings are scattered across a broker app, a spreadsheet and a notes file, this is exactly the moment a single tracker earns its keep. Our write-up on portfolio tracker versus spreadsheet walks through why a live view beats a manual sheet on days like this.

Set price alerts before the print

Second, set your price alerts before the numbers land, not after. In PortfolioTrackr you can place Target 1, Target 2 and a stop-loss level on a position, and a price above or below on a watchlist entry. Every position and watchlist level is checked once a minute while the market is open, and around the clock for crypto.

These are price levels only. PortfolioTrackr reports status against your own levels, for example still below target or stop-loss level reached, and you hear within a minute of a level being hit by:

The watchlist itself is on every plan, with 10 tickers on the free trial and Starter and 50 on Pro and Lifetime.

Expect a possible gap at the open

Third, go in knowing a gap can happen. Because all three reports land pre-market, the 9:30 open can sit above or below yesterday's close. Knowing this in advance is not a prediction, it is just understanding how after-hours and pre-market news reaches your position.

What is worth watching inside each report?

Each company has its own story, and the headline EPS is only one line of it. Here is what a holder can read against, without predicting any outcome.

Procter & Gamble (PG)

For a large consumer-staples name like PG, the consensus EPS estimate is $1.89. Beyond that single figure, holders typically read the report for organic revenue growth, the split between price and volume, and any updated full-year guidance management provides. Those details give context the EPS line alone cannot.

Spotify Technology (SPOT)

For SPOT, the consensus EPS estimate is $3.10. For a subscription business, the report usually carries more than EPS: monthly active users, premium subscriber counts, and gross margin trends all sit alongside the earnings line. Watch how those metrics line up with the quarter's stated story and any forward guidance.

Honeywell International (HON)

For the industrial conglomerate HON, the consensus EPS estimate is $2.17. Diversified industrials are often read for segment-level revenue, order backlog and any revision to full-year outlook. As with the others, the point is to compare what the company reports against its own prior guidance, not to guess the number ahead of time.

In every case, the honest approach is to watch the result against the quarter's story and the guidance that follows, then check how the position sits against your own targets.

Why does a multi-market tracker help on an earnings morning?

A single tracker helps because earnings season rarely touches just one account or one market. You might hold PG at Interactive Brokers, a European listing somewhere else, and crypto on another venue entirely.

With PortfolioTrackr covering 100 stock exchanges and 100 currencies, a US earnings print and a Frankfurt or London listing live on the same screen. A few things that make an earnings morning smoother:

Connecting a broker is optional. If you do want to link one, our guide on connecting a brokerage account to a portfolio tracker covers the steps, and yesterday's earnings preview for META, Tesla, AT&T, IBM and TXN shows the same checklist applied to a different slate.

The bottom line

Three names report before the bell today: PG at a $1.89 consensus EPS estimate, SPOT at $3.10, and HON at $2.17, all pre-market prints that can produce a gap at the 9:30 open.

The work this morning is factual, not predictive: check your exposure to today's reporters, set your price alerts before the numbers land, and read each report against the quarter's story and the guidance that follows. Checking where a position sits against your own targets is always yours to decide.

Frequently asked questions

When do PG, Spotify and Honeywell report earnings today?

All three report pre-market on Thursday, October 22, 2026, meaning the numbers land before the 9:30 a.m. ET opening bell. Procter & Gamble, Spotify and Honeywell each release before regular US trading begins, so you see the headline figures before you can trade at the regular open.

What are the consensus EPS estimates for today's reports?

The consensus EPS estimates are $1.89 for Procter & Gamble (PG), $3.10 for Spotify (SPOT) and $2.17 for Honeywell (HON). These are the average of analyst expectations and are a reference point only, not a forecast of the actual result.

What does a pre-market earnings report mean for a stock I hold?

A pre-market report releases numbers before the 9:30 a.m. ET open, so the stock can gap up or down when regular trading starts. Pre-market sessions have thin liquidity, so prices there can swing more than the eventual open. The same gap effect applies to after-hours reports the next morning.

Can I set a price alert on an earnings stock before it reports?

Yes. In PortfolioTrackr you can set Target 1, Target 2 and a stop-loss on a position before the print. Every level is checked once a minute while the market is open, around the clock for crypto, and you hear within a minute of your level being hit by email, WhatsApp, Telegram or push.

Should I buy or sell before an earnings report?

This preview does not give trading advice. The useful morning work is factual: check your exposure to the reporters, set price alerts before the print, and read each result against the company's prior guidance. How a position sits against your own targets is always your decision to make.
