An announcement from JB Hunt ( (JBHT) ) is now available.

On March 5, 2026, J.B. Hunt Transport Services, Inc. announced that its common stock had been approved for a dual listing on the new Nasdaq Texas exchange, with trading expected to begin March 6, 2026 under the ticker JBHT while the company’s primary listing remains on the Nasdaq Global Select Market. The launch was marked at a closing bell ceremony in San Antonio attended by J.B. Hunt’s leadership, industry representatives and Texas officials, underscoring the state’s role as a growing hub for capital formation.

Management framed the dual listing as a move to align the company with Texas’s economic expansion and to tap additional liquidity, global investors and enhanced technology solutions offered by Nasdaq Texas. The decision reflects J.B. Hunt’s deep operational footprint in Texas, where it serves more than 1,800 customers via major freight routes and ports and operates over 100 locations, suggesting the listing could further solidify its regional presence while broadening its investor base without changing how current shareholders trade the stock.

The most recent analyst rating on (JBHT) stock is a Buy with a $246.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on JB Hunt stock, see the JBHT Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on JBHT Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, JBHT is a Neutral.

JBHT scores 69 mainly on steady financial resilience (moderate leverage, solid returns, improved 2025 cash generation) and supportive technical trend/momentum. The score is held back by a high P/E with a low dividend yield, while earnings-call commentary points to strong cost and capital-allocation execution but ongoing revenue/margin headwinds (including the expected 2026 Final Mile revenue hit).
