Analysis · SSYS · Technology
Stratasys reported Q2 2026 adjusted EPS of $0.03, beating the $0.008 consensus, driven by record consumables sales and strong aerospace & defense growth. However, the company cut its full-year operating cash flow guidance, and the detailed financials reveal a $40.7 million net loss for the first half, a $33.9 million impairment on the Ultimaker investment, and a $10.5 million surge in legal expenses. The pending $42.5 million acquisition of Markforged adds strategic context but also execution risk.
