Tempus AI recently reported its second-quarter 2026 financial results, with revenue growing 22% year-over-year to $382.5 million. This exceeded H.C. Wainwright's projection of $390.9 million but fell short of expectations, leading the firm to lower its price target to $56 while maintaining a Buy rating. Adjusted earnings per share were negative $0.04, compared to the anticipated loss of $0.08.

This represents the first full quarter since Tempus AI's acquisition of Ambry Genetics, which contributed to the revenue increase. BTIG adjusted its price target for Tempus AI to $70 from $80, while Stifel lowered its target to $50 and maintained a Hold rating.
