6 Top Analysts Upgrade ICON PLC Price Targets
6 raises inside 7 days
Price targets move in herds, which is exactly why a cluster of raises inside a week is worth separating from a single analyst changing their mind. Here is who moved, by how much, and what the people inside the company were doing at the same time.
| Analyst | New target | Upside % |
|---|---|---|
| David Windley | $254.00 | +17.9% |
| Eric Coldwell | $249.00 | +15.6% |
| Jailendra Singh | $268.00 | +24.4% |
| Kevin Caliendo | $236.00 | +9.5% |
| Ryan Halstead | $226.00 | +4.9% |
| Sean Dodge | $235.00 | +9.1% |
The upgrades
6 analysts raised targets on ICLR in the last 7 days, the most recent on October 29th, 2026.
The new targets run from $226.00 to $268.00, against a share price of $215.48.
A target is a published opinion with a number attached. It commits the analyst to something checkable, which is more than most commentary does.
| Analyst | New target | Upside % |
|---|---|---|
| David Windley | $254.00 | +17.9% |
| Eric Coldwell | $249.00 | +15.6% |
| Jailendra Singh | $268.00 | +24.4% |
| Kevin Caliendo | $236.00 | +9.5% |
| Ryan Halstead | $226.00 | +4.9% |
| Sean Dodge | $235.00 | +9.1% |
What insiders did over the same period
Over six months the filings record $0 of open-market buying and $2.51 million of selling by company insiders.
Insiders were net sellers, which puts their money on the other side of the upgrades. Sales can be scheduled under a 10b5-1 plan and are not necessarily a view on value.
Analysts publish opinions; insiders publish transactions. When the two disagree it is worth knowing which one has money behind it.

The bottom line
A wave of raises tells you sentiment moved. The filings tell you whether anyone inside the building agreed. Not investment advice. Summarized from public SEC Form 4 and congressional disclosure data and analyst ratings data.
