Curtiss-Wright Boosts 2026 Buyback by $100M, Targets $160M in Repurchases
CW sits 50% above its 52-week low of $464.91.
Summary
Curtiss-Wright is expanding its 2026 share repurchase program by $100 million, bringing the total expected annual buybacks to $160 million. The company will immediately repurchase the additional $100 million via a 10b5-1 plan, on top of an existing $60 million program initiated in January. This follows a strong Q2 earnings beat and raised guidance, and the increased buyback signals management's confidence in sustained free cash flow. The move is modest relative to the company's $25.6 billion market cap but reinforces a shareholder-friendly capital allocation strategy.
