Answers computed from LyondellBasell Industries N.V.'s reported history

LYB is scheduled to report on Oct 30, 2026, before the market opens. Analysts expect EPS of $2.59.

Over the last 12 quarters with a usable EPS surprise, LYB beat the consensus estimate 7 times (58%), missed 5 and landed in line 0. It has beaten estimates in each of the last 2 counted quarters.

Across its last 12 quarters with a measured reaction, LYB moved an average of ±2.1% in the first session after reporting. It closed higher 50% of the time; the largest gain was 2.7% and the largest drop -7.8%.

Options currently price a move of about ±4.4% (nearest at-the-money straddle that expires after the report). It measures the size of the expected move, not its direction. That is 2.08x its average historical move of ±2.1%, so options look expensive relative to history.

LYB fell in the first session after 2 of its last 7 EPS beats (29%). A beat that was already priced in, or weaker guidance, can send a stock lower.

Across its last 12 quarters with price data, LYB moved an average of -1.4% in the 20 trading sessions before reporting and was higher in 33% of them. After a run-up of 3% or more (4 quarters), it fell the next day 75% of the time, averaging -0.9%. After a drop of 3% or more (6 quarters), it rose the next day 67% of the time, averaging -0.3%. This describes past reports; it is not a forecast.

In 8 reports LYB opened at least 1% away from the previous close. It gave back half or more of that gap by the close 4 of 8 times (50%), and fully reversed 3 times. A fade means the opening move was partly undone during the first session.
