No analyst covering WD-40 Co. publishes a 2030 price target — Wall Street targets run 12 to 18 months out. Sites quoting a 2030 price for WDFC are extrapolating price history, which says nothing about the business. The furthest attributed numbers are the current analyst targets: $245 to $305 over the next 12 months.
WD-40 Co. returned +6.6% over the 12 months to 22 Oct 2026, with dividends reinvested. Past performance does not indicate future returns.
