Hubbell Q2 Profit Drops, But Revenue Jumps 15% and Guidance Tops Views
HUBB sits 26% above its 52-week low of $403.82.
Summary
Hubbell's Q2 GAAP EPS slipped to $4.52 from $4.56 a year ago, but adjusted EPS came in at $5.52, and revenue surged 15.3% to $1.711 billion. The company issued full-year EPS guidance of $20.25-$20.55, well above the consensus $17.25-$17.55 reported earlier today, alongside revenue growth guidance of 16%-18%. This follows the $3 billion NSI Industries acquisition announced in May and the $1.9 billion debt offering completed in June. The strong top-line growth and bullish guidance suggest the NSI deal is already contributing, though the slight GAAP earnings dip may reflect integration costs. The guidance raise is the key takeaway — it materially exceeds expectations and signals management's confidence in the acquisition's payoff. Additionally, Hubbell raised its FY26 outlook.
