Qnity Raises Full-Year Guidance After Q2 Revenue Jumps 22% to $1.43B
Q sits 97% above its 52-week low of $70.5.
Summary
Qnity delivered a strong Q2 with net sales of $1.43 billion, up 22% year-over-year, driven by AI and advanced computing demand. Adjusted EPS of $1.19 beat the year-ago $0.78 by a wide margin, while GAAP net income fell to $136 million from $198 million due to higher interest and transformation costs. Management raised full-year guidance significantly: revenue now seen at $5.55–$5.65 billion, adjusted EBITDA at $1.675–$1.725 billion, and adjusted EPS at $4.40–$4.60. This follows the Q1 beat and the recent $2.34 billion loan repricing that lowered interest costs. The guidance raise signals accelerating momentum in semiconductor materials and interconnect solutions, with the company citing a 'multiplier effect' from chip complexity. The conference call at 8:00 a.m. ET will provide more color on margin trends and end-market demand.
