GEN

Over the past six months, Gen Digital's stock (GEN) has increased by 26.57%, though it trended down by 14.02% over the past year. In August 2026, the company reported strong Q1 FY27 earnings, exceeding expectations with revenue up 6.3% and adjusted EPS of $0.71, leading to raised full-year guidance and shares nearing 52-week highs. September 2026 saw stock volatility, including a 6% tumble despite broader tech strength, a sharp fall due to a broad market selloff, and ending flat after weighing M&A risk against reaffirmed guidance. Reports also emerged in September 2026 of a preliminary takeover approach for GoDaddy by Gen Digital, raising questions about debt and capital allocation. Ongoing insider selling and reduced institutional stakes by some investors have tempered sentiment, despite institutional accumulation by others.
