ESCO Technologies Q2 Sales Surge 33%, EPS Jumps 63% on Aerospace & Navy Growth; FY Guidance Raised
Summary
ESCO Technologies reported robust second-quarter fiscal 2026 results, with sales surging 33% to $309 million, slightly exceeding analyst expectations, and adjusted EPS from continuing operations jumping 63% year-over-year to $1.91. The strong performance was driven by broad-based revenue strength across its Navy, aerospace, Test, and utilities markets, significantly boosted by a recent Maritime acquisition which contributed $48 million to Q2 revenue. Building on this momentum, the company maintained its FY 2026 revenue guidance while raising its adjusted EPS guidance to $8.00-$8.25. This positive update follows a strong Q1 and reinforces the company's operational strength, likely supporting its stock, which is currently trading near its 52-week high.
