VeriSign has been upgraded to a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy), placing the internet infrastructure services provider in the top 20% of the more than 4,000 stocks covered by the Zacks rating system in terms of earnings estimate revisions. The upgrade reflects a steady rise in analyst estimates, with the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the company climbing 1.3% over the past three months. VeriSign is expected to earn $9.59 per share for the fiscal year ending December 2026, which represents no year-over-year change. Under the Zacks system, only the top 5% of covered stocks receive a Strong Buy rating and the next 15% receive a Buy rating, so the placement signals superior earnings estimate revision momentum. Zacks said the upgrade is essentially a positive comment on VeriSign's earnings outlook that could have a favorable impact on its stock price.
