FMP Stock News 98
Original source text
MIAMI, Oct. 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Watsco, Inc. (NYSE: WSO) announced its operating results for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2026.

Watsco is the largest distributor in the highly fragmented North American HVAC/R market. Since entering distribution in 1989, Watsco has achieved a 17% compounded annual total shareholder return through a combination of organic growth, driven by the Company’s industry-leading technology platforms, and the acquisition of 74 market-leading businesses that have expanded scale, density, OEM relationships and customers.

Watsco recently welcomed Jackson Supply Company and The Granite Group to the Watsco family. These legendary companies are expected to bolster annual revenue by approximately 10% and broaden Watsco’s geographic reach, product mix, as well as end-market and customer mix. The Company’s philosophy is to build upon the success and legacies of successful businesses through investments in growth, continuity of leadership and culture, and through Watsco’s equity culture to align and reward long-term growth. As importantly, Jackson Supply and Granite Group expand Watsco’s community of talented leaders and provide future scale benefits to Watsco’s technology platforms. Highlights of the Company’s recent acquisitions include:

Jackson Supply Company, founded in 1972 with annual sales of approximately $230 million, was acquired in June 2026. Jackson is a diversified HVAC distributor providing HVAC equipment, parts and supplies to approximately 5,000 customers from 25 locations in high-growth Sunbelt markets.The Granite Group, founded in 1971 with annual sales of approximately $500 million, was acquired in October 2026. The Granite Group is a large and growing distributor of HVAC and plumbing products serving approximately 11,000 customers from 82 locations in the Northeast. The Granite Group marks the fourth business acquired by Watsco that serves dual-trade HVAC/plumbing contractors (currently 112 locations out of Watsco’s 804 locations offer both HVAC and plumbing products). Watsco’s balance sheet remains solid, enabling incremental investments in growth and the Company’s industry-leading technology platforms. Today, more than 73,000 contractors and technicians engage with the Company digitally, empowering them to integrate Watsco’s innovations into their daily operations. The Company is also introducing AI-driven initiatives to leverage Watsco’s extensive data assets and enrich the customer experience. The Company believes its technology ecosystem offers a durable and widening competitive advantage. Importantly, digitally-enabled customers continue to outperform broader industry and customer metrics, strengthening Watsco’s leadership position in the highly fragmented $74 billion HVAC/R distribution landscape.

Third Quarter Operating Performance

Revenues increased 7% to a record $2.22 billion (4% increase on a same-store basis)Gross profit increased 3% to a record $586 millionGross profit margin of 26.4% (26.5% on a same-store basis) versus 27.5% last yearSG&A increased 8%, including 30 new and acquired locations (5% increase on a same-store basis)Operating income decreased 4% to $225 million (operating margin of 10.1% versus 11.4% last year)Earnings per share decreased 5% to $3.77 Third Quarter Sales Trends (excluding acquisitions)

5% increase in HVAC equipment sales (67% of sales), reflecting a 7% increase in residential products and a 5% decline in commercial products2% increase in sales of other HVAC products (29% of sales)10% increase in commercial refrigeration products (4% of sales) Third quarter sales performance reflects continued stabilization of residential end-markets following the prior year transition to new A2L products. Residential equipment sales grew 7%, including 5% unit growth and a 2% increase in average selling price. Same-store sales growth rates have steadily improved throughout the selling season with further momentum thus far in the fourth quarter. Third quarter sales also reflect $78 million in sales from the acquired locations of Jackson Supply, a 16% increase over the comparable prior-year period.

Third quarter gross margin was impacted by customer mix (larger versus smaller customers), end-market mix (replacement versus residential new construction), the timing and lower magnitude OEM pricing actions in 2026 versus 2025 and the differing growth rate of equipment versus non-equipment products. The Company believes third quarter 2026 gross margin is also more in-line with historical seasonality and year to date gross margin levels are reflective of current market conditions (including more conventional OEM pricing actions). The Company further believes that its ongoing investments in technology, pricing optimization and non-equipment growth are supportive of long-term margin objectives.

Albert H. Nahmad, Chairman and CEO said: “Third quarter results and early fourth quarter sales trends are indicative of continued improvement in end-market demand. We are encouraged to see residential unit volumes return to growth and steadily improve throughout the season. Our technology-enabled customers also continue to outperform the broader contractor community. Looking ahead, Watsco today is a meaningfully larger company, having added 107 locations and $730 million in annualized revenue to our network through the acquisitions of Jackson and Granite. Our long-range objectives for sales, margin and cash flow generation remain fully intact.”

Mr. Nahmad added: “We welcome Jackson Supply and The Granite Group to the Watsco family, both high-performing distributors in their respective markets. Jackson Supply had a terrific quarter as part of Watsco, and we are excited that The Granite Group offers extended opportunities for us to expand into the growing community of HVAC and plumbing contractors. Both are wonderful companies that diversify our product mix, extend our reach and broaden our technology advantage. We look forward to supporting their ambitious growth plans.”

Nine-Month Operating Performance

Revenues increased 3% to $5.86 billionGross profit decreased 1% to $1.59 billion (gross profit margin of 27.2% versus 28.3% last year)SG&A increased 4% (2% increase on a same-store basis)Operating income decreased 7% to $574 million (operating margin of 9.8% versus 10.9% last year)Earnings per share decreased 7% to $9.72Operating cash flow increased 79% to $304 million Year to Date Sales Trends (excluding acquisitions)

2% increase in HVAC equipment sales (67% of sales), reflecting a 4% increase in residential products and a 4% decline in commercial products1% increase in sales of other HVAC products (29% of sales)14% increase in commercial refrigeration products (4% of sales) Cash Flow, Dividends, Financial Strength and Liquidity
Operating cash flow increased 79% to $304 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2026 ($325 million during the third quarter versus $355 million last year). Watsco’s objective is to maintain a healthy balance sheet and ample liquidity to fund virtually any strategic investment. The Company’s strong financial position has been key to delivering sustained long-term returns and enabling growth investments regardless of macroeconomic or industry conditions. Watsco’s stated goal is to generate annual operating cash flow in excess of net income.

In April 2026, the Company increased its annual cash dividend by 10% to $13.20 per share. Watsco has paid dividends to shareholders for 52 consecutive years. The Company’s philosophy is to share cash flow through dividends while maintaining a conservative balance sheet with continued capacity to build its distribution network. Future changes in dividends are considered in light of investment opportunities, cash flow, general economic conditions and Watsco’s overall financial condition.

In October 2026, Watsco announced that it signed a five-year $750 million unsecured senior revolving credit facility. The terms of the new agreement include increased borrowing capacity, covenant flexibility and greater sensitivity to the seasonal nature of our working capital requirements.

Innovation and Strategic Technology Initiatives
The Company’s continued investment in technology reflects a long-term strategic commitment to building capabilities that strengthen customer relationships, extend the Company’s competitive advantage, improve operating efficiency and support sustainable growth. Watsco has invested approximately $280 million in its digital platforms over the last five years (a current annual run rate of approximately $64 million). The breadth of those investments spans across customer-engagement and internal platforms to increase the speed and efficiency of our locations and emerging AI capabilities that help customers grow and deliver technical know-how quicker.

Watsco’s HVAC Pro+ Mobile Apps and E-Commerce platform have transformed the customer-experience by providing contractors with a seamless digital experience, including sourcing products, accessing technical help, real-time inventory, pricing, product information and more. These tools empower 24/7 self-service that benefit from advanced analytics, AI, technical knowledge and product recommendations. The result is a frictionless buying experience, increased convenience and higher customer satisfaction, which drives greater loyalty and repeat business with lower costs to serve. E-commerce sales increased 12% during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2026 (10% increase during the third quarter), outpacing overall revenue growth, and reached $2.75 billion for the 12-months ended September 30, 2026 (37% of revenues).OnCallAir® is Watsco’s digital sales platform enabling contractors to engage, present and quote solutions to homeowners. The gross merchandise value (GMV) of products sold through OnCallAir® reached $1.6 billion for the nine-months ended September 30, 2026, a 14% increase over the same period last year. For the 12-months ended September 30, 2026, contractors presented approximately 351,000 quotes and generated $2.0 billion GMV, a 14% increase versus the prior comparable 12-month period.Watsco’s pricing optimization platform has contributed to the Company’s gross margin performance since its launch in 2020. The platform is designed to manage and optimize the vast number of pricing records across our business. Examples include the sophisticated pricing rules and strategies for specific products, across various geographic markets and for a variety of customer segments. This data-driven approach also enables Watsco to react swiftly to changing market conditions and efficiently administer the multitude of vendor cost changes to sustain market pricing and underlying gross margins.Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools are gaining traction to further enhance the customer-experience, drive efficiency and extend our competitive advantage. These tools leverage Watsco’s industry leading data sets around customers, products and vendors that have been curated over the last 15 years. Highlights include: Watsco’s AI platform is anchored by “Ask.Watsco”, an internally focused AI engine designed to enhance productivity, decision-making and customer service. The platform integrates robust HVAC knowledge and streamlines processes for more than 2,700 current internal users. The platform’s rapid adoption and consistent engagement highlight its potential, providing opportunities to achieve efficiency gains and further enhance customer satisfaction at scale.Complementing its internal platform, Watsco has developed “AL.watsco”, a customer-facing AI model that delivers HVAC expertise directly to customers and partners. AL.watsco is trained on Watsco’s extensive pools of data, enabling it to provide accurate, real-time answers and recommendations on a vast array of HVAC products and solutions. The potential is to deliver highly customized, data driven customer service at scale, enhance customer loyalty and engagement and attract new customers to Watsco’s ecosystem. SupplySync is an innovative platform targeting the institutional channel for HVAC/R products. In recent years, large institutional customers have emerged, offering an incremental growth opportunity by further leveraging our market-leading scale, product depth, customer-facing technologies and financial strength. Watsco has launched a pilot program for SupplySync, which offers enterprise-wide solutions to institutional customers designed to deliver a seamless experience across sales, marketing, pricing, product assortment and order management. SupplySync is designed to provide a new level of service and expertise to institutional customers in a single platform across multiple markets and product categories.Initiatives to enhance sales of non-equipment products and enhance gross margins were launched in 2026. The Company estimates that 40% of the products sold in the HVAC/R marketplace represent non-equipment products. For the 12 months ended September 30, 2026, Watsco’s non-equipment purchases were approximately $1.7 billion from more than 1,500 vendors (30% of total purchases). Watsco is leveraging its product and pricing data to optimize and streamline sourcing across its supplier network. The Company is also investing in advanced logistics and distribution capabilities designed to improve inventory service levels, improve attachment rates, drive operating efficiency, enhance margins and increase inventory turns. A.J. Nahmad, Watsco’s President, added: “We believe that the growth in e-commerce, OnCallAir® and overall digital engagement across our network reflects the value these tools deliver to our customers. We have also progressed nicely with the various initiatives introduced at last year’s investor day, including the formal launch of SupplySync and the early scaling of the other initiatives. Our focus remains on advancing these unique capabilities – with AI enabling better and faster speed to market – in ways that help our customers grow.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information and References to “Unit” Data
In this release, the Company discloses non-GAAP measures on a “same-store basis”, which exclude the effects of locations closed, acquired, or locations opened, in each case during the immediately preceding 12 months, unless such locations are within close geographical proximity to existing locations. The Company believes that this information provides greater comparability regarding its ongoing operating performance. These measures should not be considered an alternative to measurements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

In addition, the Company references “unit” data, a key performance measure, in analyzing its results. For purposes of this analysis, a “unit” is a compressor-bearing air conditioning unit or heat pump (also generally referred to as “outdoor units”), a standard industry convention consistent with data published by the Air-Conditioning Heating and Refrigeration Institute (AHRI).

EQT koupí Range Resources za 13 miliard USD
EQT EQT
FMP Stock News 85
Original source text
EQT Corporation (NYSE:EQT – Get Free Report) shares crossed below its 200-day moving average during trading on Monday. The stock has a 200-day moving average of $55.42 and traded as low as $52.29. EQT shares last traded at $54.8610, with a volume of 27,250,177 shares.

EQT News Roundup Here are the key news stories impacting EQT this week:

Positive Sentiment: EQT agreed to acquire Range Resources in an all-stock transaction valued at approximately $13 billion, creating a combined company with an estimated value of about $50 billion and making EQT the largest U.S. natural-gas producer. The enlarged scale could improve operating efficiency, strengthen marketing leverage and expand exposure to rising gas demand from data centers, LNG exports and power generation. EQT Agrees to Acquire Range Resources in All-Stock Transaction Positive Sentiment: Management says the combination should lower EQT’s free-cash-flow breakeven to below $2 per million British thermal units, potentially improving resilience if natural-gas prices remain volatile. The deal is being positioned as a way to capitalize on record U.S. gas demand and AI-related electricity consumption. EQT Is Building a $50 Billion Natural Gas Giant as AI Power Demand Surges Neutral Sentiment: Range Resources shares rose sharply following the announcement, indicating that the market views the takeover consideration favorably for Range holders. However, the initial reaction for EQT shareholders has been more cautious, suggesting investors are assessing how the benefits will be shared after the merger. Range Resources Soars on EQT’s All-Stock Takeover Negative Sentiment: Because the transaction is all-stock, EQT shareholders will face dilution and must wait for projected synergies and cost savings to materialize. The size of the acquisition also introduces integration, regulatory and commodity-price risks, which may explain the stock’s weaker reaction despite the company’s stronger strategic position. EQT to Buy Range Resources in Natural Gas Megadeal Analysts Set New Price Targets Several analysts recently issued reports on the company.

Centene překonala odhady zisku i tržeb
CNC Centene
FMP Stock News 85
Original source text
Centene (CNC - Free Report) came out with quarterly earnings of $0.58 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $0.07 per share. This compares to earnings of $0.5 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.

This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of +728.57%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this healthcare company would post earnings of $0.89 per share when it actually produced earnings of $2.51, delivering a surprise of +182.02%.

Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates four times.

Centene, which belongs to the Zacks Medical - HMOs industry, posted revenues of $50.65 billion for the quarter ended September 2026, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 7.63%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $49.69 billion. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates four times over the last four quarters.

The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call.

Centene shares have added about 65.3% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 12.1%.

What's Next for Centene?While Centene has outperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock?

There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.

Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.

Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for Centene was mixed. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to perform in line with the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.

It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and the current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is -$1.09 on $46.17 billion in revenues for the coming quarter and $4.89 on $196.29 billion in revenues for the current fiscal year.

Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, Medical - HMOs is currently in the top 13% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.

Another stock from the same industry, Cigna (CI - Free Report) , has yet to report results for the quarter ended September 2026. The results are expected to be released on November 5.

This health insurer is expected to post quarterly earnings of $7.46 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of -4.7%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised 0.1% higher over the last 30 days to the current level.

Cigna's revenues are expected to be $73.53 billion, up 5.7% from the year-ago quarter.

Boeing snížil ztrátu, tržby vzrostly o 4 %
BA Boeing
Patria Stock News 94
Original source text
Výsledky Boeingu za třetí čtvrtletí naznačují, že nejhorší období má výrobce letadel pravděpodobně za sebou. Výrazné meziroční zlepšení hospodaření podpořily nové obranné zakázky, vyšší dodávky letadel a úspěchy v certifikaci modelů 737 MAX. Společnost však stále zůstává ve ztrátě a její komerční divize zatím nedokáže plně kompenzovat dopady předchozích krizí.

Americký výrobce letadel Boeing ve třetím čtvrtletí snížil čistou ztrátu na 116 milionů dolarů (zhruba 2,53 miliardy Kč) z 5,3 miliardy dolarů před rokem. Tržby vzrostly o čtyři procenta na 24,2 miliardy dolarů, oznámila dnes firma ve zprávě o hospodaření.

Loňské třetí čtvrtletí negativně ovlivnil odpis u programu letounu 777X. Provozní zisk v letošním třetím čtvrtletí činil 354 milionů dolarů, zatímco před rokem firma skončila s provozní ztrátou 4,8 miliardy dolarů.

"Mezi nedávné milníky patří certifikace modelů 737-7 a 737-10 a výběr k návrhu a výrobě stíhacího letounu šesté generace pro americké námořnictvo. Jsou to důležité kroky na naší cestě," uvedl šéf podniku Kelly Ortberg.

"Ještě jsme ale neskončili. Nadále se zaměřujeme na bezpečnost a kvalitu a zvyšujeme úsilí v oblasti štíhlé výroby a disciplinovaného řízení, abychom dostáli svým závazkům a dosáhli trvale dobrých výsledků, jaké od nás zainteresované strany očekávají," dodal.

Základní ztráta na akcii ve třetím čtvrtletí klesla na 34 centů ze 7,47 dolaru před rokem. Byla tak vyšší, než očekávali analytici. Ti podle průzkumu společnosti LSEG v průměru předpokládali ztrátu 21 centů na akcii.

Tržby divize komerčních tryskových letadel ve třetím čtvrtletí klesly o tři procenta na 10,7 miliardy dolarů. Divize dodala zákazníkům 161 letadel, tedy o jedno procento více než před rokem. Její provozní ztráta se výrazně snížila na 697 milionů dolarů z 5,4 miliardy před rokem.

Zbrojní a vesmírná divize zvýšila tržby o 15 procent na 7,9 miliardy dolarů a její provozní zisk vzrostl na 492 milionů dolarů ze 114 milionů, přičemž pomohl i zisk 252 milionů dolarů z prodeje společnosti HRL Laboratories.

Boeing měl problémy od dvou tragických havárií, které se týkaly jeho letadel 737 MAX a při kterých v letech 2018 a 2019 zahynulo dohromady 346 lidí. Letadla 737 MAX byla pak v důsledku nehod dočasně odstavena z provozu. Za nehodami byly problémy s asistenčním softwarem MCAS. Ten měl pilotům pomáhat stroj ovládat, místo toho je ale překvapil nečekaným a nepředvídatelným zásahem do řízení.

Boeing následně upravil software řídicího systému a po více než roce získal první povolení pro opětovné uvedení do provozu. V některých částech světa čekal na povolení déle. Americký soud loni v listopadu schválil dohodu vlády Spojených států s Boeingem, podle níž se podnik v případě těchto dvou nehod vyhne trestnímu stíhání. Součástí dohody v celkové výši přes 1,1 miliardy dolarů bylo i odškodné.

Microchip potvrdil radiační odolnost procesoru PIC64-HPSC1000-RH
MCHP Microchip Technology
FMP Stock News 85
Original source text
CHANDLER, Ariz., Oct. 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- As civil, commercial, scientific and defense spacecraft become more autonomous, software-defined and data intensive, mission developers need substantially greater onboard processing capability, combined with the resilience, security and reliability required for demanding space environments. Microchip Technology (Nasdaq: MCHP) today announces several important milestones for its PIC64-HPSC High-Performance Spaceflight Computing Series, a 64-bit multicore RISC-V computing platform designed specifically for spacecraft, satellites and other mission-critical space systems.

Early radiation characterization of the PIC64-HPSC1000-RH radiation-hardened variant has demonstrated Total Ionizing Dose (TID) performance to 200 krad(Si) and successful Single Event Latch-up (SEL) testing to 78.2 MeV·cm²/mg under specified operating conditions. Early testing also demonstrated robust system-controller operation during Single Event Effects (SEE) characterization, with no uncorrected errors or external resets required during the testing completed to date. These results provide developers with tangible evidence of the platform’s progress toward meeting radiation-tolerance requirements, helping enable future spaceflight systems from Low Earth Orbit to the Moon, Mars and beyond.

“Our vision for PIC64-HPSC was to develop a modern, high-performance computing platform capable of enabling the next generation of civil, commercial, scientific and defense space systems,” said Kevin So, vice president of Microchip’s communications business unit. “The combination of operational silicon, radiation-characterization results and customer evaluation activity demonstrates continued execution against that vision and marks an important step in the maturation of the platform.”

Through the PIC64-HPSC Early Access Program, participating customers have been evaluating silicon and development kits, and beginning application development with supporting software, tools, technical resources and direct engineering assistance from Microchip. A growing ecosystem of board partners is also developing PIC64-HPSC-based VPX and VNX+ computing platforms, providing additional paths for system developers to integrate the processor into future space systems. The Early Access Program can help space-system developers reduce program risk and advance application development.

Initial silicon performance measurements are in line with program objectives, providing a foundation for increasingly compute-intensive workloads such as onboard autonomy, high-performance payload processing, Earth observation and intelligence, secure communications, spacecraft control, scientific exploration and edge AI. By processing more sensor and mission data onboard, future spacecraft can reduce dependence on communications bandwidth, shorten decision-making latency and respond more rapidly to changing mission conditions. The importance of advanced onboard processing is also reflected in NASA’s FY26 Civil Space Shortfall Prioritization, which ranked advanced onboard computing for space operations as the third-highest civil space technology shortfall.

PIC64-HPSC is designed as a scalable computing foundation for a broad range of next-generation space systems. Its 64-bit multicore RISC-V architecture supports the industry’s move toward more open and scalable models for onboard autonomy, software-defined spacecraft, distributed processing, deterministic communications and heterogeneous computing.

PIC64-HPSC originated from NASA and JPL’s assessment of future spaceflight computing requirements and awarded the HPSC contract to Microchip in 2022. Today, operational silicon, customer evaluations and early radiation-characterization achievements reflect the program's progress to date.

The HPSC program helped establish the foundation for Microchip’s 64-bit computing portfolio, which the company has since expanded its portfolio of PIC64 MPUs addressing performance requirements across a broad range of markets.

Pricing and Availability

PIC64-HPSC evaluation and development kits are available to select customers, providing access to silicon, development platforms, software, tools and Microchip engineering support. To inquire about availability, contact a Microchip sales representative.

TMDX TransMedics Group
FMP Stock News 78
Original source text
BROOMFIELD, Colo., Oct. 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gogo (NASDAQ: GOGO) today announced that TransMedics, the global leader in organ transplantation technology, services and logistics, has selected Gogo Galileo to equip its growing fleet of 22 Embraer Phenom 300E aircraft operating across the United States.

The aircraft play a critical role in transporting donor organs for transplantation. During each mission, organs are continuously monitored in flight using TransMedics' Organ Care System (OCS), making reliable, high-performance and high-speed inflight connectivity an essential part of the company's operations. The Gogo Galileo HDX is now being installed on all TransMedics’ aircraft and the full fleet is expected to be equipped by 2027.

"Every flight we operate carries the potential to save a life, which makes continuous, real-time visibility into each organ’s status during transport mission-critical," says Andre Costa, VP of Global Logistics at TransMedics. "We are proud to pioneer this initiative. By mid-2027, Gogo Galileo will be operating across our entire fleet, making TransMedics the first and only organ transplant company to achieve this milestone, and we plan to extend this capability to our European fleet in 2028. We selected Gogo Galileo not only for the reliable, high-performance connectivity these critical missions demand, but also for the cybersecurity, system redundancy, and active monitoring that Gogo delivers to its customers."

Powered by Eutelsat OneWeb's enterprise-grade low Earth orbit (LEO) network, Gogo Galileo delivers global, high-speed, low-latency connectivity for business aviation. The Galileo HDX electronically steered antenna (ESA) provides a compact, lightweight and low-power solution capable of supporting multiple simultaneous applications, including cloud-based monitoring, video communications and operational data exchange.

"Business aviation supports far more than executive travel: it enables critical missions that communities rely on every day," says Chris Moore, Chief Executive Officer for Gogo. "TransMedics is a powerful example of that. When you're transporting donor organs, connectivity isn't a convenience; it's part of the mission. We're proud that Gogo Galileo will help provide the resilient, high-performance connectivity their flight crews and medical teams depend on to support lifesaving work while giving them peace of mind that their data is secure."

As the TransMedics fleet enters service with Gogo Galileo HDX, the operator will also benefit from Gogo's comprehensive suite of value-added services, including advanced cybersecurity protections, 24/7/365 multilingual customer support and future-ready technology designed to evolve alongside operational requirements.

U.S. GAAP Operating Results:

Third Quarter 2026 compared to Second Quarter 2026

Operating revenues and expenses: Operating revenues increased $47.6 million in the third quarter of 2026 compared to the second quarter. Investment management fees increased $50.4 million, primarily driven by higher average AUM, partially offset by a reduction in revenue due to the sale of the management agreements associated with Invesco's Canadian fund business to CI Global Asset Management ("Sale of the Canadian Management Agreements") in the second quarter of 2026. Service and distribution fees increased $3.3 million. Performance fees decreased $1.7 million to $2.0 million. Other revenues decreased $4.4 million as a result of lower real estate transaction fees.

Operating expenses decreased $24.7 million in the third quarter of 2026 compared to the second quarter. Third-party distribution, service and advisory costs increased $16.6 million primarily due to higher average AUM which was partially offset by a reduction in expense following the Sale of the Canadian Management Agreements. Employee compensation expenses decreased $52.9 million, primarily reflecting lower deferred compensation expense, driven by a $43.7 million decrease in the mark-to-market adjustment on deferred compensation liabilities and a $9.7 million decrease related to the timing of expense recognition for retirement-eligible employees. General and administrative expenses increased $15.9 million, primarily due to a net benefit of $11.7 million recorded in the second quarter of 2026 arising from the Sale of the Canadian Management Agreements and the restructuring of the company's Canadian operations.

Non-operating income and expenses: Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates was $42.6 million, earned primarily from our China joint venture and private markets investments. Interest and dividend income was $9.8 million earned from cash and cash equivalents and seed capital investments. Other gains/(losses) were a net loss of $34.2 million, primarily driven by market value changes in deferred compensation and other investments. Other income/(expense) of consolidated investment products (CIP) was income of $29.5 million, primarily driven by net interest income which was partially offset by market losses on the underlying investments held by the funds.

The effective tax rate was 23.3% in the third quarter of 2026 as compared to 25.6% in the second quarter of 2026. The decrease was primarily due to the favorable impact of net income attributable to non-controlling interests in consolidated entities recognized during the third quarter of 2026, which was partially offset by the favorable discrete tax benefit recognized in the second quarter of 2026 related to the gain on the Sale of the Canadian Management Agreements.

Diluted earnings per common share: Diluted earnings per common share was $0.65 for the third quarter of 2026.

Third Quarter 2026 compared to Third Quarter 2025

Operating revenues and expenses: Operating revenues increased $232.8 million in the third quarter of 2026 compared to the third quarter of 2025. Investment management fees increased $327.5 million, primarily driven by management fees for QQQ following its conversion to an open-end fund ETF in the fourth quarter of 2025 and higher average AUM. Service and distribution fees decreased $87.5 million primarily due to the elimination of QQQ's pass-through service revenues after its conversion. Foreign exchange rate changes decreased operating revenues by $7.2 million.

Operating expenses increased $67.2 million in the third quarter of 2026 compared to the third quarter of 2025. Third-party distribution, service and advisory costs increased $85.4 million primarily due to higher third-party costs for QQQ and higher average AUM. Employee compensation expenses decreased $27.8 million primarily due to a $24.9 million decrease in the mark-to-market adjustment on deferred compensation liabilities and lower salaries of $13.1 million primarily due to the divestitures in the fourth quarter of 2025, partially offset by higher variable compensation costs. Marketing expenses increased $15.8 million, primarily due to advertising related to QQQ. Foreign exchange rate changes decreased operating expenses by $5.4 million. 

The effective tax rate was 23.3% in the third quarter of 2026 as compared to (2.8%) in the third quarter of 2025. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to the favorable resolution of a tax matter in the third quarter of 2025, including the benefit related to a reduction in the deferred income tax rate and the reversal of a reserve for uncertain tax positions.

Adjusted (1) Operating Results:

Third Quarter 2026 compared to Second Quarter 2026

Net revenues and adjusted operating expenses: Net revenues in the third quarter of 2026 increased $52.6 million compared to the second quarter primarily due to higher average AUM and higher performance fees earned by our China joint venture, partially offset by the impact of the Sale of the Canadian Management Agreements.  

Adjusted operating expenses decreased $11.0 million compared to the second quarter. 

Adjusted operating income increased $63.6 million compared to the second quarter. Adjusted operating margin increased to 40.7% from 37.5%.

Non-operating income and expenses: Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates was a market loss of $1.0 million. Other gains/(losses) were a net loss of $23.8 million, primarily driven by market value changes in seed capital and other investments. Interest and dividend income was $12.9 million.

The effective tax rate on adjusted net income increased slightly to 25.1% in the third quarter of 2026 from 24.9% in the second quarter of 2026.

Adjusted diluted earnings per common share was $0.72 for the third quarter of 2026.

Third Quarter 2026 compared to Third Quarter 2025

Net revenues and adjusted operating expenses: Net revenues in the third quarter of 2026 increased $195.4 million compared to the third quarter of 2025 primarily driven by higher average AUM and the net revenues earned from QQQ.

Adjusted operating expenses in the third quarter of 2026 increased $39.2 million compared to the third quarter of 2025. Employee compensation increased $20.7 million primarily due to higher variable employee compensation of $29.3 million, partially offset by lower base salaries due to the divestitures in the fourth quarter of 2025. Marketing costs increased $15.1 million primarily due to advertising related to QQQ. General and administrative expenses increased $6.4 million primarily due to higher outsourced administration costs. 

Adjusted operating income increased $156.2 million compared to the third quarter of 2025. Adjusted operating margin increased to 40.7% from 34.2%.

The effective tax rate on adjusted net income was 25.1% in the third quarter of 2026, compared to 11.2% in the third quarter of 2025. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to the favorable resolution of a tax matter in the third quarter of 2025, including the reversal of a reserve for uncertain tax positions.

None of this information should be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, historical financial statements.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees, and they involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions.

Invesco Ltd.
Non-GAAP Information and Reconciliations

We utilize the following non-GAAP performance measures: Net revenues (and by calculation, Net revenue yield on AUM), Adjusted operating income, Adjusted operating margin, Adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd., and Adjusted diluted EPS. We believe the adjusted measures provide valuable insight into our ongoing operational performance and assist in comparisons to our competitors. These measures also assist management with the establishment of operational budgets and forecasts. The most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures are Operating revenues (and by calculation, gross revenue yield on AUM), Operating income, Operating margin, Net income attributable to Invesco Ltd., and Diluted EPS.

The following are reconciliations of Operating revenues, Operating income (and by calculation, operating margin), and Net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. (and by calculation, diluted EPS) on a U.S. GAAP basis to a non-GAAP basis of Net revenues, Adjusted operating income (and by calculation, Adjusted operating margin), and Adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. (and by calculation, Adjusted diluted EPS). In addition, a reconciliation of Adjusted operating expenses is provided below, together with reconciliations of the U.S. GAAP Operating expense lines to provide further analysis of the non-GAAP adjustments. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered as substitutes for any U.S. GAAP measures and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. The tax effect of the reconciling items is based on the tax jurisdiction attributable to the transactions. These measures are described more fully in the company's Forms 10-K and 10-Q. Refer to these public filings for additional information about the company's non-GAAP performance measures.

(1)

Revenue adjustments: The company calculates Net revenues by reducing Operating revenues to exclude fees that are passed through to external parties who perform functions on behalf of, and distribute, the company's managed funds. The Net revenue presentation assists in identifying the revenue contribution generated by the company, removing distortions caused by the differing distribution channel fees and allowing for a fair comparison with U.S. peer investment managers and within Invesco's own investment units. Additionally, management evaluates Net revenue yield on AUM, which is equal to Net revenues divided by Average AUM during the reporting period, as an indicator of the Net revenues we receive for each dollar of AUM we manage.

Investment management fees are adjusted by renewal commissions and certain administrative fees. Service and distribution fees are primarily adjusted by distribution fees passed through to broker dealers for certain share classes and pass through fund-related costs. Other revenues are primarily adjusted by transaction fees passed through to third parties.

(2)

Invesco Great Wall: The company reflects 100% of Invesco Great Wall in its Net revenues and Adjusted operating income (and by calculation, Adjusted operating margin). The company's non-GAAP operating results reflect the economics of these holdings on a basis consistent with the underlying AUM and flows. Adjusted net income is reduced by the amount of earnings attributable to the noncontrolling interests.

(3)

CIP: The company believes that the CIP may impact a reader's analysis of our underlying results of operations and could result in investor confusion or the production of information about the company by analysts or external credit rating agencies that is not reflective of the underlying results of operations and financial condition of the company. Accordingly, the company believes that it is appropriate to adjust Operating revenues and Operating income for the impact of CIP in calculating the respective Net revenues and Adjusted operating income (and by calculation, Adjusted operating margin).

(4)

Amortization of intangible assets: The company removes amortization related to acquired assets in arriving at Adjusted operating income, Adjusted operating margin and Adjusted diluted EPS, as this will aid comparability of our results period to period, and aid comparability with peer companies that may not have similar acquisition-related charges.

(5)

Market valuation changes related to deferred compensation plan liabilities: Certain deferred compensation plan awards provide a return to the employee linked to the appreciation (depreciation) of specified investments. The company economically hedges the exposure to market movements on these deferred compensation liabilities. Since these liabilities are economically hedged, the company believes it is useful to remove the market movements related to the deferred compensation plan liabilities from the calculation of Adjusted operating income (and by calculation, Adjusted operating margin) and to remove the net impact of the economic hedge from the calculation of Adjusted net income (and by calculation, Adjusted diluted EPS) to produce results that will be more comparable period to period.

(6)

Canadian sale and restructuring: In the second quarter of 2026, the company removed the net benefit arising from the Sale of the Canadian Management Agreements and the restructuring of the company's Canadian operations. The company removed this benefit in arriving at Adjusted operating income, Adjusted operating margin, Adjusted net income, and Adjusted diluted EPS, as this will aid comparability of our results period to period and aid comparability with peer companies that may not have similar activities.

(7)

Operating margin is equal to Operating income divided by Operating revenues.

(8)

Adjusted operating margin is equal to Adjusted operating income divided by Net revenues.

Impact of deferred income tax rate change: In the third quarter of 2025, the company removed a non-cash income tax benefit of $39.0 million related to the revaluation of the deferred tax liabilities for indefinite-lived intangible assets as a result of a decrease in the tax rate. The company removed this discrete tax benefit in arriving at Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted EPS as it does not have a cash flow impact and will aid comparability of our results period to period.

(10)

Tax adjustment for amortization of intangible assets and goodwill: The company reflects the tax benefit realized on the tax amortization of goodwill and intangibles in Adjusted net income. The company believes it is useful to include this tax benefit in arriving at the Adjusted diluted EPS measure.

(11)

Adjusted diluted EPS is equal to Adjusted net income attributable to Invesco Ltd. divided by the weighted average number of common and restricted common shares outstanding.

FMP Stock News 85
Original source text
Herc Holdings (HRI - Free Report) came out with quarterly earnings of $3.91 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $3.08 per share. This compares to earnings of $2.22 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.

This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of +26.95%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this equipment rental supplier would post earnings of $0.76 per share when it actually produced earnings of $1.43, delivering a surprise of +88.16%.

Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates four times.

Herc Holdings, which belongs to the Zacks Transportation - Equipment and Leasing industry, posted revenues of $1.36 billion for the quarter ended September 2026, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 1.98%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $1.3 billion. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates three times over the last four quarters.

The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call.

Herc Holdings shares have lost about 14.3% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 12.1%.

What's Next for Herc Holdings?While Herc Holdings has underperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock?

There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.

Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.

Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for Herc Holdings was favorable. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to outperform the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.

It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and the current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is $2.63 on $1.27 billion in revenues for the coming quarter and $7.30 on $4.96 billion in revenues for the current fiscal year.

Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, Transportation - Equipment and Leasing is currently in the top 21% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.

One other stock from the same industry, Willis Lease Finance (WLFC - Free Report) , is yet to report results for the quarter ended September 2026.

This jet engine lessor is expected to post quarterly earnings of $1.40 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +29.6%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days.

Willis Lease Finance's revenues are expected to be $202.76 million, up 10.6% from the year-ago quarter.

This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of +6.00%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this energy delivery company would post earnings of $0.37 per share when it actually produced earnings of $0.4, delivering a surprise of +8.11%.

Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates two times.

CenterPoint, which belongs to the Zacks Utility - Electric Power industry, posted revenues of $2.19 billion for the quarter ended September 2026, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 1.89%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $1.99 billion. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates three times over the last four quarters.

The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call.

CenterPoint shares have added about 7.5% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 12.1%.

What's Next for CenterPoint?While CenterPoint has underperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock?

There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.

Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.

Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for CenterPoint was mixed. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to perform in line with the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.

It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and the current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is $0.45 on $2.59 billion in revenues for the coming quarter and $1.91 on $9.91 billion in revenues for the current fiscal year.

Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, Utility - Electric Power is currently in the top 39% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.

One other stock from the same industry, Evergy Inc (EVRG - Free Report) , is yet to report results for the quarter ended September 2026. The results are expected to be released on November 5.

This electric utility is expected to post quarterly earnings of $2.27 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +11.8%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days.

Evergy Inc's revenues are expected to be $1.9 billion, up 4.7% from the year-ago quarter.

We monitor subscription annualized recurring revenue ("Subscription ARR"), SaaS ARR and subscription net dollar retention rate ("Subscription NRR") to help evaluate the state of our business. We believe these metrics are material to investors to understand the growth and performance of our business, as they help normalize certain variable factors and provide a consistent view of our recurring revenue profile. Subscription ARR and SaaS ARR exclude non-recurring elements and reflect the annualized value of active contracts, while subscription NRR measures net expansion within our existing subscription customer base. Together, we believe these metrics offer meaningful insight into the health and trajectory of our recurring revenue streams. Commvault has also provided its Subscription ARR on a constant currency basis in order to provide a comparable framework for assessing how the business performed excluding the effect of foreign currency fluctuations. Total ARR, which also included the annualized maintenance contract on perpetual licenses, is no longer disclosed.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We have provided in this press release the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP income from operations (EBIT), non-GAAP EBIT margin, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, and non-GAAP free cash flow. This financial information has not been prepared in accordance with GAAP. Commvault uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate its business and make operating decisions. Commvault believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures, when used as a supplement to GAAP financial measures, provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends, and in comparing its financial results with other companies in Commvault's industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to the investment community. Commvault has also provided its revenues on a constant currency basis. We analyze revenue growth on a constant currency basis in order to provide a comparable framework for assessing how the business performed excluding the effect of foreign currency fluctuations.

All of these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, which are included in this press release.

Non-GAAP EBIT and non-GAAP EBIT margin. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude noncash stock-based compensation expense and additional Federal Insurance Contribution Act (FICA) and related payroll tax expense incurred by Commvault related to stock-based compensation. Commvault has also excluded restructuring costs, noncash amortization of intangible assets, business combination costs, the change in the estimated fair value of contingent consideration, adjustments from the sale and leaseback of headquarters, non-recurring strategic pricing initiative costs, and other non-recurring charges from its non-GAAP results. These adjustments are further discussed in the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures. Commvault believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful metrics for management and investors because they compare Commvault's core operating results over multiple periods. When evaluating the performance of Commvault's operating results and developing short- and long-term plans, Commvault does not consider such expenses.

Although noncash stock-based compensation expense and the additional FICA and related payroll tax expense are necessary to attract and retain employees, Commvault places its primary emphasis on stockholder dilution as compared to the accounting charges related to such equity compensation plans. Commvault believes that providing non-GAAP financial measures that exclude noncash stock-based compensation expense and the additional FICA and related payroll tax expense allow investors to make meaningful comparisons between Commvault's operating results and those of other companies.

There are a number of limitations related to the use of non-GAAP EBIT and non-GAAP EBIT margin.  The most significant limitation is that these non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain operating costs, primarily related to noncash stock-based compensation, which is of a recurring nature. Noncash stock-based compensation has been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense in Commvault's operating results.  In addition, noncash stock-based compensation is an important part of Commvault's employees' compensation and can have a significant impact on their performance. The following table presents the stock-based compensation expense included in cost of revenues, sales and marketing, research and development and general and administrative ($ in thousands):

The table above excludes stock-based compensation expense related to the Company's restructuring activities described below in Note 8.

The components that Commvault excludes in its non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the components that its peer companies exclude when they report their non-GAAP financial measures. Due to the limitations related to the use of non-GAAP measures, Commvault's management assists investors by providing a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Commvault's management uses non-GAAP financial measures only in addition to, and in conjunction with, results presented in accordance with GAAP.

Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share (EPS).  In addition to the adjustments discussed in non-GAAP EBIT, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted EPS incorporates a non-GAAP effective tax rate of 24%.

Commvault anticipates that in any given period its non-GAAP tax rate may be either higher or lower than the GAAP tax rate as evidenced by historical fluctuations. Commvault defines its cash tax rate as the total amount of cash income taxes payable for the fiscal year divided by consolidated GAAP pre-tax income. Over time, Commvault believes its GAAP and cash tax rates will align.

Commvault considers non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted EPS useful metrics for Commvault management and its investors for the same basic reasons that Commvault uses non-GAAP EBIT and non-GAAP EBIT margin. In addition, the same limitations as well as management actions to compensate for such limitations described above also apply to Commvault's use of non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted EPS.

Non-GAAP free cash flow.  Commvault defines this non-GAAP financial measure as net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of property and equipment. Commvault considers non-GAAP free cash flow a useful metric for Commvault management and its investors in evaluating Commvault's ability to generate cash from its business operations. In addition, the same limitations as well as management actions to compensate for such limitations described above also apply to Commvault's use of non-GAAP free cash flow.

Forward-looking non-GAAP measures.  In this press release, Commvault presents non-GAAP EBIT margin and free cash flow on a forward-looking basis. The most directly comparable GAAP measures are not accessible on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable efforts, because certain items that impact these GAAP measures, cannot be reasonably predicted or quantified. The probable significance of these items may be material, and as a result, the corresponding GAAP measures and a quantitative reconciliation to those GAAP measures are not available on a forward-looking basis.

Notes

Beginning in fiscal 2027, Customer support revenue has been further disaggregated between support associated with term-based software license arrangements ("Term-based support") and support associated with perpetual software license arrangements ("Perpetual support"). Subscription revenue has also been reclassified to include Term-based support revenue, in addition to Term-based license and SaaS revenues. Prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications have no impact on total revenues, net income, or the underlying revenue recognition for these arrangements.In addition, Subscription ARR has been reclassified to include enterprise support, further aligning Subscription ARR with Subscription revenue. Enterprise support consists of recurring customer success services that provide our customers with enhanced support, strategic guidance and dedicated technical expertise, and is included in Term-based support. Prior to fiscal 2027, enterprise support was included only in Total ARR. Prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Total ARR, which also included the annualized maintenance contract on perpetual licenses, is no longer disclosed.

Subscription ARR represents the annualized value of all active contracts as of the end of a reporting period attributable to term‑based licenses, maintenance and support services associated with term license arrangements, enterprise support, SaaS subscriptions, and consumption‑based arrangements, calculated by dividing the total active contract value by the number of days in the contract term and multiplying the result by 365. For consumption-based arrangements on a pay as you go model without a fixed commitment, the applicable ARR is calculated by annualizing the revenue contractually expected to be received in a given month based on actual monthly usage from a prior month. SaaS ARR includes only the cloud‑hosted portion of subscription ARR and is calculated using the same methodology.   These metrics should be viewed independently of GAAP revenue, deferred revenue and unbilled revenue and are not intended to be combined with or to replace those items. These metrics are not a forecast of future revenues. Management believes that reviewing these metrics, in addition to GAAP results, helps investors and financial analysts understand the value of Commvault's recurring revenue streams presented on an annualized basis. There is no direct GAAP comparative to ARR.

A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results has been provided in the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release. An explanation of these measures is also included under the heading "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures."Commvault does not provide forward-looking guidance on a GAAP basis as certain financial information, the probable significance of which cannot be determined, is not available and cannot be reasonably estimated. See "Forward-looking non-GAAP measures" for additional explanation.Subscription net dollar retention rate ("Subscription NRR") includes all contracts attributable to term‑based licenses, maintenance and support services associated with term license arrangements, enterprise support, SaaS subscriptions, and consumption‑based arrangements. Subscription NRR is calculated as the percentage of subscription ARR retained from existing customers at the start of an annual period after accounting for expansion revenue, churn, and downgrades, measured on an annualized basis using the trailing four quarter average. Acquired subscription ARR is excluded until the acquisition is fully integrated, which we generally expect to occur twelve months from the close date. We believe our subscription NRR offers valuable insight into the year-over-year expansion of our existing customer base, reflecting both increased utilization of current products and services as well as the adoption of additional offerings. There is no direct GAAP comparative to NRR.Represents noncash stock-based compensation expense, exclusive of stock-based compensation expense related to Commvault's restructuring activities described below in Note 8.Represents additional FICA and related payroll tax expense incurred by Commvault related to stock-based compensation.Restructuring charges relate to two plans designed to optimize our cost structure, enhance organizational agility, align resources with strategic priorities, and reorganize our business technology function. These initiatives include workforce reductions, technology transitions, office lease closures, and the exit of operations in certain jurisdictions. The related charges primarily consist of severance and associated employee termination costs, stock‑based compensation expense resulting from modification events, and office closure and exit charges. As of September 30, 2026, the majority of these costs have been incurred and the remaining activities are anticipated to be completed in fiscal 2027.Represents noncash amortization of intangible assets.These charges relate to acquisition and business development activities, including legal, accounting and advisory services.

Given the non-recurring nature of the matter, these costs have been excluded from non-GAAP results as they are episodic in nature, directly tied to a discrete strategic initiative, and not reflective of ongoing operating performance.These primarily legal and consulting expenses are related to our response in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 to a one-time security matter from the first quarter of fiscal 2026. Given the non-recurring nature of the matter, these costs have been excluded from non-GAAP results to provide a clearer view of ongoing operating performance.The provision for income taxes is adjusted to reflect Commvault's estimated non-GAAP effective tax rate of 24%.

Revenue of $599 million, increased 3%;Annual recurring revenue of $423 million, increased 25%;GAAP net income attributable to Itron, Inc. of $71 million, increased $6 million;GAAP diluted earnings per share of $1.61, increased $0.20 per share;Non-GAAP diluted EPS of $1.94, increased $0.40 per share;Adjusted EBITDA of $115 million, increased 18%; andFree cash flow of $96 million, decreased $18 million. “Itron delivered a strong third quarter, with revenue returning to growth at the top end of our outlook, record adjusted EBITDA, and earnings well ahead of our expectations — demonstrating the earnings leverage of our stronger operating model,” said Tom Deitrich, Itron’s President and CEO. “Utilities’ needs for capacity, reliability, resiliency, and affordability continue to drive demand for our technology, while our expanding software and services portfolio is supporting recurring revenue growth.”

Summary of Third Quarter Consolidated Financial Results
(All comparisons made are against the prior year period unless otherwise noted)

Revenue
Total third quarter revenue of $599 million compared to $582 million in the prior year. The increase was driven primarily by growth in Outcomes and the contribution from Resiliency Solutions.

Device Solutions revenue decreased 2%, or 1% in constant currency due to lower legacy gas product sales.

Networked Solutions revenue decreased 1% due to the timing of project deployments.

Outcomes revenue increased 9% due to higher services revenue.

Resiliency Solutions revenue was $16 million.

Adjusted Gross Margin
Itron's third quarter adjusted gross margin of 41.3% increased 350 basis points from the prior year due to customer and product mix as well as operational efficiencies.

Operating Expenses and Operating Income
GAAP operating expenses of $149 million increased $12 million and non-GAAP operating expenses of $141 million increased $10 million from the prior year due to the Urbint and Locusview acquisitions.

GAAP operating income of $95 million was $14 million higher due to higher gross profit.

Non-GAAP operating income of $107 million was $18 million higher than the prior year due to higher gross profit, partially offset by higher operating expenses.

Net Income and Earnings per Share (EPS)
Net income attributable to Itron, Inc. for the quarter was $71 million, or $1.61 per diluted share, compared with net income attributable to Itron, Inc. of $66 million, or $1.41 per diluted share in 2025. The increase was driven by higher operating income.

Non-GAAP net income attributable to Itron, Inc., which excludes the expenses associated with amortization of intangible assets, amortization of debt placement fees, restructuring, loss on sale of business, strategic initiative expense, acquisition and integration related expenses, gain on the sale of equity method investments, and the tax effect of excluding these expenses, was $86 million, or $1.94 per diluted share, compared with $72 million, or $1.54 per diluted share, in 2025. The increase was driven by higher non-GAAP operating income and lower non-GAAP taxes.

Cash Flow
Net cash provided by operating activities was $102 million in the third quarter compared with $118 million in the prior year. Free cash flow was $96 million in the third quarter compared with $113 million in the prior year. The decrease in free cash flow was primarily due to changes in working capital, higher cash tax payments and lower interest income.

Other Measures

Total backlog at quarter end was $4.3 billion and bookings during the quarter totaled $482 million.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements
This release contains, and our officers and representatives may from time to time make, "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are neither historical factors nor assurances of future performance. These statements are based on our expectations about, among others, revenues, operations, financial performance, earnings, liquidity, earnings per share, cash flows and restructuring activities including headcount reductions and other cost savings initiatives. This document reflects our current strategy, plans and expectations and is based on information currently available as of the date of this release. When we use words such as "expect", "intend", "anticipate", "believe", "plan", "goal", "seek", "project", "estimate", "future", "strategy", "objective", "may", "likely", "should", "will", "will continue", and similar expressions, including related to future periods, they are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements rely on a number of assumptions and estimates. Although we believe the estimates and assumptions upon which these forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, any of these estimates or assumptions could prove to be inaccurate and the forward-looking statements based on these estimates and assumptions could be incorrect. Our operations involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside our control, and any one of which, or a combination of which, could materially affect our results of operations and whether the forward-looking statements ultimately prove to be correct. Actual results and trends in the future may differ materially from those suggested or implied by the forward-looking statements depending on a variety of factors. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Some of the factors that we believe could affect our results include our ability to execute on our restructuring plans, our ability to achieve estimated cost savings, the rate and timing of customer demand for our products, rescheduling of current customer orders, changes in estimated liabilities for product warranties, adverse impacts of litigation, changes in laws, regulations, tariffs, sanctions, trade policies and retaliatory responses, our dependence on new product development and intellectual property, future acquisitions, changes in estimates for stock-based and bonus compensation, increasing volatility in foreign exchange rates, international business risks, uncertainties caused by adverse economic conditions, including without limitation those resulting from extraordinary events or circumstances and other factors that are more fully described in Part I, Item 1A: Risk Factors included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended Dec 31, 2025 and other reports on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Itron undertakes no obligation to update or revise any information in this press release.

Non-GAAP Financial Information
To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP), we use certain adjusted or non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP operating expense, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share (EPS), adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, adjusted gross profit, adjusted operating income, and constant currency. We provide these non-GAAP financial measures because we believe they provide greater transparency and represent supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making. We exclude certain costs in our non-GAAP financial measures as we believe the net result is a measure of our core business. We believe these measures facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period by eliminating potential differences caused by the existence and timing of certain expense items that would not otherwise be apparent on a GAAP basis. Non-GAAP performance measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, results prepared in accordance with GAAP. We strongly encourage investors and shareholders to review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. Our non-GAAP financial measures may be different from those reported by other companies. When providing future outlooks and/or earnings guidance, a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP diluted EPS to the GAAP diluted EPS has not been provided because we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty the potential amount or timing of restructuring related expenses and their related tax effects without unreasonable effort. These costs are uncertain, depend on various factors and could have a material impact on GAAP results for the guidance period. A more detailed discussion of why we use non-GAAP financial measures, the limitations of using such measures, and reconciliations between non-GAAP and the nearest GAAP financial measures are included in this press release.

To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP operating expense, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP diluted EPS, adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, adjusted gross profit, adjusted operating income, and constant currency. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, and other companies may define such measures differently. For a reconciliation of each non-GAAP measure to the most comparable financial measure prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, please see the table captioned Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to the Most Directly Comparable GAAP Financial Measures.

We use these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision making and/or as a means for determining executive compensation. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance and ability to service debt by excluding certain expenses that may not be indicative of our recurring core operating results. These non-GAAP financial measures facilitate management's internal comparisons to our historical performance, as well as comparisons to our competitors' operating results. Our executive compensation plans exclude non-cash charges related to amortization of intangibles and depreciation of property, plant, and equipment and certain discrete cash and non-cash charges, such as restructuring, loss on sale of business, strategic initiative expenses, or acquisition and integration related expenses. We believe that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they provide greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision making and because they are used by our institutional investors and the analyst community to analyze the health of our business.

Non-GAAP operating expenses and non-GAAP operating income – We define non-GAAP operating expenses as operating expenses excluding certain expenses related to the amortization of intangible assets, restructuring, loss on sale of business, strategic initiative expenses, and acquisition and integration related expenses. We define non-GAAP operating income as operating income excluding the expenses related to the amortization of intangible assets, restructuring, loss on sale of business, strategic initiative expenses, and acquisition and integration related expenses. Acquisition and integration related expenses include costs, which are incurred to affect and integrate business combinations, such as professional fees; certain employee retention and salaries related to integration; employee severance; contract terminations; travel costs related to knowledge transfer; system conversion costs; and asset impairment charges. We consider these non-GAAP financial measures to be useful metrics for management and investors because they exclude the effect of expenses that are not related to our core operating results. By excluding these expenses, we believe that it is easier for management and investors to compare our financial results over multiple periods and analyze trends in our operations. For example, in certain periods, expenses related to amortization of intangible assets may decrease, which would improve GAAP operating margins, yet the improvement in GAAP operating margins due to this lower expense is not necessarily reflective of an improvement in our core business. There are some limitations related to the use of non-GAAP operating expenses and non-GAAP operating income versus operating expenses and operating income calculated in accordance with GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by providing specific information about the GAAP amounts excluded from non-GAAP operating expense and non-GAAP operating income and evaluating non-GAAP operating expense and non-GAAP operating income together with GAAP operating expense and operating income.

Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted EPS – We define non-GAAP net income as net income attributable to Itron, Inc. excluding the expenses associated with amortization of intangible assets, amortization of debt placement fees, restructuring, loss on sale of business, strategic initiative expenses, acquisition and integration related expenses, gain on sale of equity method investment, and the tax effect of excluding these expenses. We define non-GAAP diluted EPS as non-GAAP net income divided by diluted weighted-average shares outstanding during the period calculated on a GAAP basis and then reduced to reflect any anti-dilutive impact of the convertible notes hedge transactions. We consider these financial measures to be useful metrics for management and investors for the same reasons that we use non-GAAP operating income. The same limitations described above regarding our use of non-GAAP operating income apply to our use of non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted EPS. We compensate for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from these non-GAAP measures and evaluating non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP diluted EPS together with GAAP net income attributable to Itron, Inc. and GAAP diluted EPS.

For interim periods the budgeted annual effective tax rate (AETR) is used, adjusted for any discrete items, as defined in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740 - Income Taxes. The budgeted AETR is determined at the beginning of the fiscal year. The AETR is revised throughout the year based on changes to our full-year forecast. If the revised AETR increases or decreases by 200 basis points or more from the budgeted AETR due to changes in the full-year forecast during the year, the revised AETR is used in place of the budgeted AETR beginning with the quarter the 200 basis point threshold is exceeded and going forward for all subsequent interim quarters in the year. We continue to assess the AETR based on latest forecast throughout the year and use the most recent AETR any time it increases or decreases by 200 basis points or more from the prior interim period.

Adjusted EBITDA – We define adjusted EBITDA as net income (a) minus interest income and gain on sale of equity method investment, (b) plus interest expense, depreciation and amortization, restructuring, loss on sale of business, strategic initiative expenses, acquisition and integration related expenses, and (c) excluding income tax provision or benefit. Management uses adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure for executive compensation. A limitation to using adjusted EBITDA is that it does not represent the total increase or decrease in the cash balance for the period and the measure includes some non-cash items and excludes other non-cash items. Additionally, the items that we exclude in our calculation of adjusted EBITDA may differ from the items that our peer companies exclude when they report their results. We compensate for these limitations by providing a reconciliation of this measure to GAAP net income.

Free cash flow – We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less cash used for acquisitions of property, plant and equipment. We believe free cash flow provides investors with a relevant measure of liquidity and a useful basis for assessing our ability to fund our operations and repay our debt. The same limitations described above regarding our use of adjusted EBITDA apply to our use of free cash flow. We compensate for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts in the reconciliation.

Adjusted gross profit – We define adjusted gross profit as gross profit excluding the amortization expense of core-developed technology intangible assets.

Adjusted operating income – We define adjusted operating income as operating income excluding the amortization of core-developed technology intangible assets.

Constant currency – We refer to the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in our discussions of financial results, which references the differences between the foreign currency exchange rates used to translate operating results from the entity's functional currency into U.S. dollars for financial reporting purposes. We also use the term "constant currency", which represents financial results adjusted to exclude changes in foreign currency exchange rates as compared with the rates in the comparable prior year period. We calculate the constant currency change as the difference between the current period results and the comparable prior period's results restated using current period foreign currency exchange rates.

The tables below reconcile the non-GAAP financial measures of operating expenses, operating income, net income, diluted EPS, adjusted EBITDA, and free cash flow with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

Original source text
Polaris Inc (PII - Free Report) came out with quarterly earnings of $1.08 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $0.62 per share. This compares to earnings of $0.41 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.

This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of +74.19%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this snowmobile and ATV maker would post earnings of $0.77 per share when it actually produced earnings of $1.97, delivering a surprise of +155.84%.

Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates four times.

Polaris Inc, which belongs to the Zacks Automotive - Domestic industry, posted revenues of $2.04 billion for the quarter ended September 2026, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 6.59%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $1.84 billion. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates four times over the last four quarters.

The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call.

Polaris Inc shares have lost about 12.8% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 12.1%.

What's Next for Polaris Inc?While Polaris Inc has underperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock?

There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.

Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.

Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for Polaris Inc was mixed. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to perform in line with the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.

It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and the current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is $0.53 on $1.9 billion in revenues for the coming quarter and $3.22 on $7.47 billion in revenues for the current fiscal year.

Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, Automotive - Domestic is currently in the bottom 16% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.

Harley-Davidson (HOG - Free Report) , another stock in the same industry, has yet to report results for the quarter ended September 2026. The results are expected to be released on October 29.

This motorcycle maker is expected to post quarterly earnings of $0.43 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of -86.1%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days.

Harley-Davidson's revenues are expected to be $1.05 billion, down 2.6% from the year-ago quarter.

Revenue from the digital accelerators introduced at the Company’s Investor Day(*) increased 33% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and represented 26% of year-to-date revenues, demonstrating strong momentum for the continued investments in these strategic initiatives, such as Ria digital, merchant acquiring and the Ren product suite.Signed a letter of intent to collaborate globally with Diebold Nixdorf to transform ATM networksUnveiled OLON, a unified commerce ecosystem to accelerate merchant growthRepurchased $50 million of common stock, representing approximately 690,000 shares, during the quarter, reflecting disciplined capital allocation.Digital transactions within the Cross-Border Payments segment increased 34% in the third quarter of 2026 compared to the prior year period. * See the Investor Day presentation at http://ir.euronetworldwide.com.

LEAWOOD, Kan., Oct. 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Euronet (“Euronet” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: EEFT), a global leader in payment processing and cross-border transactions, announced today third quarter 2026 financial results.

Euronet reports the following consolidated results for the third quarter 2026 compared with the same period of 2025:

Revenues of $1,161.1 million, a 1% increase from $1,145.7 million (3% increase on a constant currency1 basis).Operating income of $171.6 million, a 12% decrease from $195.0 million (10% decrease on a constant currency basis).Adjusted operating income2 of $169.9 million, a 13% decrease from $195.0 million (11% decrease on a constant currency basis, 8% decrease after excluding $4.7 million of incremental non-cash purchase price amortization).Adjusted EBITDA3 of $226.1 million, an 8% decrease from $244.6 million (6% decrease on a constant currency basis).Net income attributable to Euronet of $113.6 million, or $2.53 diluted earnings per share, compared with $122.0 million, or $2.75 diluted earnings per share.Adjusted earnings per share4 of $3.55 decreased 2% from $3.62 in the prior year period. See the reconciliation of non-GAAP items in the attached financial schedules.  

“Our third-quarter results reflect the continued impact of U.S. immigration policy and global economic pressures on the Cross Border Payments segment, which has persisted longer than we anticipated,” said Michael J. Brown, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Euronet Worldwide. “While these results are below our expectations and our historical performance, we continued to see growth in the digital accelerators we introduced during our Investor Day in May. Year-to-date, these accelerators have grown 33%, reflecting the benefit of our continued investment in these strategic initiatives.

The Payments Infrastructure segment benefitted from the acquisition of CoreCard, together with growth in merchant acquiring and Ren sales. The epay segment had a solid quarter from continued growth in digital content and promotional campaigns executed during the quarter. During the quarter, we also returned another $50 million to shareholders through share repurchases.

While we remain confident in the long-term growth opportunities across our businesses, the persistent pressures experienced this quarter in Cross-Border Payments, together with broader macroeconomic pressures and FX conversion rates changes, have caused us to revise our 2026 outlook from the targets provided during our Investor Day in May. We now expect approximately $4.375 billion of revenue, approximately $725 million of Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS growth of approximately 10%. Although these near-term challenges are disappointing, our digital accelerator strategy continues to demonstrate the growth necessary to generate strong cash flow and create long-term shareholder value.”

Segment and Other Results

The Payments Infrastructure Segment (formerly EFT Processing Segment) reports the following results for the third quarter 2026 compared with the same period or date in 2025:

Revenues of $437.9 million, a 7% increase from $409.4 million (9% increase on a constant currency basis).Operating income of $128.2 million, or less than 1% increase from $128.1 million (2% increase on a constant currency basis).Adjusted operating income of $126.5 million, a 1% decrease from $128.1 million (no change on a constant currency basis).Adjusted EBITDA of $157.9 million, a 2% increase from $154.7 million (4% increase on a constant currency basis).Total of 59,688 installed ATMs as of September 30, 2026, a 4% increase from 57,534 as of September 30, 2025. Total of 58,420 active ATMs as of September 30, 2026, a 4% increase from 56,431 as of September 30, 2025. Constant currency revenue growth was driven by continued growth in merchant acquiring, Ren sales, and the fourth quarter 2025 acquisition of CoreCard, partially offset by continued economic pressures on discretionary travel spend which negatively affects international ATM cash withdrawals. Adjusted EBITDA and operating income were impacted by continued cost inflation. Third quarter 2026 adjusted operating income also includes $1.7 million of additional expense related to a timing difference between a cash rebate payment and the U.S. GAAP purchase accounting expense recognition related to a prior acquisition. Adjusted operating income includes a $4.7 million increase in non-cash purchase price amortization related to the CoreCard acquisition. Excluding this additional amortization, constant currency adjusted operating income would have increased 4%.

The epay Segment reports the following results for the third quarter 2026 compared with the same period or date in 2025:

Revenues of $294.7 million, a 3% increase from $286.5 million (5% increase on a constant currency basis).Operating income of $31.8 million, a 3% increase from $31.0 million (5% increase on a constant currency basis).Adjusted EBITDA of $33.4 million, a 3% increase from $32.5 million (6% increase on a constant currency basis).Transactions of 1,191 million, an 4% increase from 1,148 million.POS terminals of approximately 736,000 as of September 30, 2026, a 3% increase from approximately 712,000.Retailer locations of approximately 357,000 as of September 30, 2026, a 3% increase from approximately 346,000. Constant currency revenue and operating income each increased 5% and adjusted EBITDA increased 6% as a result of continued demand for higher-value digital content, merchant acquiring and promotional campaigns.

The Cross-Border Payments Segment (formerly known as Money Transfer Segment) reports the following results for the third quarter 2026 compared with the same period or date in 2025:

Revenues of $431.0 million, a 5% decrease from $452.4 million (4% decrease on a constant currency basis).Operating income of $37.3 million, a 37% decrease from $59.3 million (35% decrease on a constant currency basis).
Adjusted EBITDA of $43.6 million, a 34% decrease from $65.9 million (32% decrease on a constant currency basis).Total transactions of 45.3 million, a 2% decrease from 46.0 million.Total digital transactions of 8.1 million, a 34% increase from 6.1 million.Network locations of approximately 654,000 as of September 30, 2026, a 3% increase from approximately 638,000. Constant currency revenue was impacted by continued pressure from U.S. immigration policy and broader global economic uncertainty, partially offset by continued strength in the digital business, with digital transactions growing 34% and continued momentum in our Dandelion cross-border payments platform.

Declines in constant currency operating income and adjusted EBITDA were principally the result of the flow through of the revenue declines to the bottom line and approximately $6 million incremental investment in digital initiatives.

On a sequential quarterly basis, the third quarter constant currency revenue decline of 4% improved slightly over the second quarter decline of 5%. The sequential changes were the result of stable to improving trends in many of our international markets. Pressure persisted primarily in the U.S. market, but the last few months have shown stabilizing to modestly improving trends. While these trends are encouraging, we believe the market remains fragile in the context of the current geopolitical environment.

Corporate and Other reports $25.7 million of expense for the third quarter 2026 compared with $23.4 million for the third quarter 2025. The increase in corporate expenses was primarily driven by a $1.9 million increase in long-term share-based compensation.

Balance Sheet and Financial Position
Total cash, including ATM cash, unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, was $1,887.9 million as of September 30, 2026, compared to $2,220.7 million at June 30, 2026. Total indebtedness was $2,177.3 million, down from $2,654.0 million at June 30, 2026. Availability under the Company's revolving credit facilities was approximately $1.1 billion.

Total indebtedness decreased by $476.7 million during the quarter, reflecting the seasonal return of ATM cash following the peak European travel season and cash generated from operations, partially offset by $50 million of share repurchases.

The Company remains committed to reducing its debt balances in order to maintain its investment-grade credit rating.

Outlook
The Company is revising its 2026 outlook previously provided at its Investor Day in May to approximately $4.375 billion of revenue, approximately $725 million of Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted earnings per share growth of approximately 10% year-over-year. The revised outlook reflects immigration-related pressures within the Cross-Border Payments segment in several key corridors, broader global economic pressures and FX conversion rate changes. This outlook does not include any further changes that may develop in foreign exchange rates, interest rates or other unforeseen factors.

Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to the results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company presents non-GAAP financial measures, such as constant currency financial measures, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income and adjusted earnings per share. These measures should be used in addition to, and not a substitute for, revenues, operating income, net income and earnings per share computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We believe that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors regarding the Company's performance and overall results of operations. These non-GAAP measures are also an integral part of the Company's internal reporting and performance assessment for executives and senior management. The non-GAAP measures used by the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. The attached schedules provide a full reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure.

The Company does not provide a reconciliation of its forward-looking non-GAAP measures to GAAP due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for GAAP and the related GAAP and non-GAAP reconciliation, including adjustments that would be necessary for foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and other charges reflected in the Company's reconciliation of historic numbers, the amount of which, based on historical experience, could be significant.

(1) Constant currency financial measures are computed as if foreign currency exchange rates did not change from the prior period. This information is provided to illustrate the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on the Company's results when compared to the prior period.

(2) Adjusted operating income is defined as operating income excluding, to the extent incurred in the period, a non-cash accrual adjustment. Adjusted operating income represents a performance measure and is not intended to represent a liquidity measure.

(3) Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income excluding, to the extent incurred in the period, interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation, amortization, share-based compensation and other non-operating or non-recurring items that are considered expenses or income under U.S. GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA represents a performance measure and is not intended to represent a liquidity measure.

(4) Adjusted earnings per share is defined as diluted U.S. GAAP earnings per share excluding, to the extent incurred in the period, the tax-effected impacts of: a) foreign currency exchange gains or losses, b) share-based compensation, c) acquired intangible asset amortization, d) non-cash income tax expense, e) non-cash investment gain, (f) non-cash accrual adjustments, (g) non-cash impairment and (h) dilutive shares related to the Company's convertible notes. Adjusted earnings per share represents a performance measure and is not intended to represent a liquidity measure.

CHICAGO, Oct. 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TransUnion (NYSE: TRU) (the “Company”) today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2026.

Third Quarter 2026 Results

Revenue:

Total revenue for the quarter was $1,312 million, an increase of 12 percent (12 percent on a constant currency basis and 8 percent on an organic constant currency basis), compared with the third quarter of 2025.
Earnings:

Net income attributable to TransUnion was $156 million for the quarter, compared with $97 million for the third quarter of 2025. Diluted earnings per share was $0.81, compared with $0.49 in the third quarter of 2025. Net income attributable to TransUnion margin was 11.9 percent, compared with 8.3 percent in the third quarter of 2025.Adjusted Net Income was $242 million for the quarter, compared with $216 million for the third quarter of 2025. Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share was $1.25, compared with $1.10 in the third quarter of 2025.Adjusted EBITDA was $465 million for the quarter, compared with $425 million for the third quarter of 2025, an increase of 9 percent (10 percent on a constant currency basis and 5 percent on an organic constant currency basis). Adjusted EBITDA margin was 35.4 percent, compared with 36.3 percent in the third quarter of 2025.
“TransUnion delivered another quarter of strong results exceeding our guidance,” said Chris Cartwright, President and CEO. “U.S. Markets revenue grew by 7 percent, led by U.S. Financial Services and Insurance. International accelerated to 10 percent growth on an organic constant currency basis, including 18 percent growth in India.”

“We are maintaining the high-end of 2026 guidance for revenue and raising guidance for Adjusted Diluted EPS, balancing business momentum against rising interest rates and overall market uncertainty. We continue to expect 2026 to mark our third consecutive year of at least high-single digit organic constant currency revenue growth and double-digit Adjusted Diluted EPS growth.”

“Progress against our technology modernization and accelerated innovation underpin these results. We continue to deliver increasingly diversified, innovation-led and scalable growth. We believe our growth momentum, increasing cash flow and strong balance sheet support an accelerated pace of capital return to shareholders in the near term.”

Third Quarter 2026 Segment Results

Segment revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and the related growth rates in the table below include the results of Trans Union de México, S.A. S.I.C. (“Trans Union de Mexico”). The results of this business are reported in the International Segment within Latin America.

Cash and cash equivalents was $883 million at September 30, 2026 and $854 million at December 31, 2025.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, cash provided by operating activities was $889 million, compared with $668 million in 2025. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was due primarily to improved operating performance and changes in working capital. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, cash used in investing activities was $754 million, compared with $307 million in 2025. The increase in cash used in investing activities was due primarily to our acquisitions of Trans Union de Mexico and the mobile division of RealNetworks LLC (“RealNetworks”), partially offset by proceeds from the sale of two investments and a prior year investment in a note receivable. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, capital expenditures were $201 million, compared with $229 million in 2025. Capital expenditures as a percentage of revenue represented 5% and 7%, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, cash used in financing activities was $86 million, compared with $301 million in 2025. The decrease in cash used in financing activities was due primarily to borrowings from our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility in connection with the purchase of Trans Union de Mexico, partially offset by higher share repurchase volume in 2026, the prepayment of our Senior Secured Term Loan B-5 debt and dividends paid to shareholders of Trans Union de Mexico.

On October 26, 2026, TransUnion’s Board of Directors increased the share repurchase authorization by $1 billion to $2 billion in total and declared a cash dividend of $0.135 per share, an increase from $0.125, for the third quarter of 2026. The dividend will be payable on November 25, 2026, to shareholders of record on November 10, 2026.

Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2026 Outlook

Our guidance is based on a number of assumptions that are subject to change, many of which are outside of the control of the Company, including general macroeconomic conditions, interest rates, inflation and regulatory changes. There are numerous evolving factors that we may not be able to accurately predict. There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve the results below.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We present Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share, Adjusted Provision for Income Taxes, Adjusted Effective Tax Rate and Leverage Ratio for all periods presented. These are important financial measures for the Company but are not financial measures as defined by GAAP. These financial measures should be reviewed in conjunction with the relevant GAAP financial measures and are not presented as alternative measures of GAAP. Other companies in our industry may define or calculate these measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. Because of these limitations, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, including operating income, operating margin, effective tax rate, net income attributable to the Company, diluted earnings per share or cash provided by operating activities. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in the tables below.

We present Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share, Adjusted Provision for Income Taxes and Adjusted Effective Tax Rate as supplemental measures of our operating performance because these measures eliminate the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our cash operations and ongoing operating performance. These are measures frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in their evaluation of the operating performance of companies similar to ours.

Our board of directors and executive management team use Adjusted EBITDA as an incentive compensation measure for most eligible employees and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share as an incentive compensation measure for certain of our senior executives.

Under the credit agreement governing our Senior Secured Credit Facility, our ability to engage in activities such as incurring additional indebtedness, making investments and paying dividends is tied to our Leverage Ratio which is partially based on Adjusted EBITDA. Investors also use our Leverage Ratio to assess our ability to service our debt and make other capital allocation decisions.

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA

Management has excluded the following items from net income attributable to TransUnion in order to calculate Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented:

Net interest expense is the sum of interest expense and interest income as reported on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.Provision for income taxes, as reported on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.Depreciation and amortization, as reported on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.Stock-based compensation is used as an incentive to engage and retain our employees. It is predominantly a non-cash expense. We exclude stock-based compensation because it may not correlate to the underlying performance of our business operations during the period since it is measured at the grant date fair value and it is subject to variability as a result of performance conditions and timing of grants. These expenses are reported within cost of services and selling, general and administrative on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.Mergers and acquisitions, divestitures and business optimization expenses are non-recurring expenses associated with specific transactions (exploratory or executed) and consist of (i) transaction and integration costs, (ii) fair value and impairment adjustments related to investments and related call and put options, notes receivable, gains or losses on a step acquisition and mark-to-market adjustments on acquisition-related foreign currency forward contracts, (iii) post-acquisition adjustments to contingent consideration or to assets and liabilities that occurred after the acquisition measurement period. We exclude these expenses as we believe they are not directly correlated to the underlying performance of our business operations and vary depending upon the timing of such transactions. These expenses are reported in costs of services, selling, general and administrative and other income and (expenses), net, on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.Accelerated technology investment includes Project Rise and the final phase of our technology investment announced in November 2023. Project Rise was announced in February 2020 and was originally expected to be completed in 2022. Following our acquisition of Neustar in December 2021, we recognized the opportunity to take advantage of Neustar’s capabilities to enhance and complement our cloud-based technology already under development as part of Project Rise. As a result, we extended Project Rise’s timeline to 2024. In November 2023, we announced our plans to further leverage Neustar’s technology to standardize and streamline our product delivery platforms and to build a single global platform for fulfillment of our product lines. This represented the final phase of the technology investment in our global technology infrastructure and core customer applications. The accelerated technology investment fundamentally transformed our technology infrastructure by implementing a global cloud-based approach to streamline product development, increase the efficiency of ongoing operations and maintenance and enable a continuous improvement approach to avoid the need for another major technology overhaul in the foreseeable future. The unique effort to build a secure, reliable and performant hybrid cloud infrastructure required us to dedicate separate resources in order to develop the new cloud-based infrastructure in parallel with our current on-premise environment by maintaining our existing technology team to ensure no disruptions to our customers. The costs associated with the accelerated technology investment are incremental and redundant costs that will not recur now that the program has been completed and are not representative of our underlying operating performance. Therefore, we believe that excluding these costs through the end of the program in 2025 from our non-GAAP measures provides a better reflection of our ongoing cost structure. These costs are primarily reported in cost of services and therefore do not include amounts that are capitalized as internally developed software.Operating model optimization program represents employee separation costs, facility lease exit costs and other business process optimization expenses incurred in connection with our transformation plan. We excluded these expenses through the end of the program in 2025 as we believe they are not directly correlated to the underlying performance of our business. Further, these costs will vary and may not be comparable during the transformation initiative as we progress toward an optimized operating model. These costs are reported primarily in restructuring and selling, general and administrative on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.Net other adjustments principally relate to: (i) deferred loan fee expense from debt prepayments and refinancing, (ii) other debt financing expenses consisting primarily of revolving credit facility deferred financing fee amortization and commitment fees and expenses associated with ratings agencies and interest rate hedging, (iii) currency remeasurement on foreign operations, (iv) legal and regulatory expenses, net, and (v) other non-operating (income) and expense. We exclude these expenses as we believe they are not directly correlated to the underlying performance of our business and create variability between periods based on the nature and timing of the expense or income. These costs are reported in selling, general and administrative and in non-operating income and expense, net as applicable based on their nature on our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA Margin

Management defines Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue as reported.

Adjusted Net Income

Management has excluded the following items from net income attributable to TransUnion in order to calculate Adjusted Net Income for the periods presented:

Amortization of certain intangible assets presents non-cash amortization expenses related to assets that arose from our 2012 change in control transaction and business combinations occurring after our 2012 change in control. We exclude these expenses as we believe they are not directly correlated to the underlying performance of our business operations and vary dependent upon the timing of the transactions that give rise to these assets. Amortization of intangible assets is included in depreciation and amortization on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.Stock-based compensation (see Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA above)Mergers and acquisitions, divestiture and business optimization (see Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA above)Accelerated technology investment (see Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA above)Operating model optimization program (see Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA above)Net other is consistent with the definition in Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA above except that other debt financing expenses and certain other miscellaneous income and expense that are included in the adjustment to calculate Adjusted EBITDA are excluded in the adjustment made to calculate Adjusted Net Income.Total adjustments for income taxes relates to the cumulative adjustments discussed below for Adjusted Provision for Income Taxes. This adjustment is made for the reasons indicated in Adjusted Provision for Income Taxes below. Adjustments related to the provision for income taxes are included in the line item by this name on our Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share

Management defines Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share as Adjusted Net Income divided by the weighted-average diluted shares outstanding.

Adjusted Provision for Income Taxes

Management has excluded the following items from our provision for income taxes for the periods presented:

Tax effect of above adjustments represents the income tax effect of the adjustments related to Adjusted Net Income described above. The tax rate applied to each adjustment is based on the nature of each line item. We include the tax effect of the adjustments made to Adjusted Net Income to provide a comprehensive view of our adjusted net income.Excess tax (benefit) expense for stock-based compensation is the permanent difference between expenses recognized for book purposes and expenses recognized for tax purposes, in each case related to stock-based compensation expense. We exclude this amount from the Adjusted Provision for Income Taxes in order to be consistent with the exclusion of stock-based compensation from the calculation of Adjusted Net Income.Other principally relates to (i) deferred tax adjustments, including rate changes, (ii) infrequent or unusual valuation allowance adjustments, (iii) return to provision, tax authority audit adjustments, and reserves related to prior periods, and (iv) other non-recurring items. We exclude these items because they create variability that impacts comparability between periods.
Adjusted Effective Tax Rate

Management defines Adjusted Effective Tax Rate as Adjusted Provision for Income Taxes divided by Adjusted income before income taxes. We calculate adjusted income before income taxes by excluding the pre-tax adjustments in the calculation of Adjusted Net Income discussed above and noncontrolling interest related to these pre-tax adjustments from income before income taxes.

Leverage Ratio

Management defines Leverage Ratio as net debt divided by Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for the most recent twelve-month period including twelve months of Adjusted EBITDA from significant acquisitions. Net debt is defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents as reported on the balance sheet as of the end of the period.

This earnings release presents constant currency growth rates assuming foreign currency exchange rates are consistent between years. This allows financial results to be evaluated without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. This earnings release also presents organic constant currency growth rates, which assumes consistent foreign currency exchange rates between years and also eliminates the impact of our recent acquisitions. This allows financial results to be evaluated without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and the impacts of recent acquisitions.

Free cash flow is defined as cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures and is a measure we may refer to.

Curaleaf hájí nabídku na převzetí společnosti Aurora s prémií 86 %
CURLF Curaleaf Holdings
FMP Stock News 90
Original source text
, /PRNewswire/ -- Curaleaf Holdings, Inc. (TSX: CURA) (OTCQX: CURLF) ("Curaleaf"), a leading international provider of consumer and medical cannabis products, today issued the following statement in response to the Alberta Securities Commission's ruling regarding Aurora Cannabis Inc.'s ("Aurora") at-the-market ("ATM") program.

"Aurora would like shareholders to believe the ASC's ruling changes the fundamental debate. It does not," said Boris Jordan, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Curaleaf. "The questions confronting Aurora shareholders remain the same today as they were yesterday: why did Aurora issue shares under an ATM for less than the original offer price after Curaleaf indicated a bid was coming, why is a now 86% premium offer being dismissed as inadequate and a discounted offer, why is Curaleaf continuing to be excluded from customary diligence when others aren't, and why is the Board asking shareholders to reject a proposal before allowing a fully informed process to play out? Those questions remain unanswered."

Key facts Aurora shareholders should know:

Curaleaf's believes its application brought much needed scrutiny to Aurora's dilutive ATM activity. Aurora used the ATM program heavily in the days leading up to Curaleaf's bid, including after Curaleaf publicly announced its intention to make its offer. Aurora has now confirmed that it stopped using the program on August 18, shortly after Curaleaf challenged that activity, and has not used it since. Aurora shareholders have been spared further ATM dilution since Curaleaf raised its concerns and formally made its application.
  Curaleaf's enhanced offer represents an 86% premium, not a "discount." Counter to Aurora's claims, Curaleaf's enhanced offer implied price of approximately US$5.00 per share represents a significant premium to Aurora's unaffected volume weighted average share price of approximately US$2.75. Aurora's "discount" characterization is entirely inconsistent with their own actions, given they were issuing shares pursuant to its ATM at prices as low as US$2.56 per share, a 49% discount to the enhanced Curaleaf offer, less than a month before Curaleaf's intention to make its offer.  Curaleaf's enhanced offer provides clear value to Aurora shareholders.
  A process that excludes Curaleaf cannot credibly be called a review of "all available strategic alternatives." Curaleaf has made a premium offer and remains ready to engage immediately, yet Aurora continues to exclude Curaleaf from customary diligence while providing access to other parties.
  A combination of Curaleaf and Aurora would create the global cannabis leader, with operations across 17 countries, more than US$1.5 billion of last-twelve-month ("LTM") revenue, nearly US$350 million of LTM Adjusted EBITDA and at least US$40 million of expected annual cost synergies. Aurora shareholders would retain exposure to Aurora's international business while gaining ownership in Curaleaf's leading U.S. platform and future regulatory upside.Curaleaf remains ready to engage constructively with Aurora and pursue a transaction that delivers immediate value, meaningful future upside, and ownership in the world's largest cannabis company.

Trending Headlines about Comcast Here are the key news stories impacting Comcast this week:

Positive Sentiment: Third-quarter updates highlighted Peacock’s continued profitability and wireless customer growth. These gains, along with approximately 1% pro forma adjusted EBITDA growth, helped offset some weakness in the company’s connectivity businesses. Comcast Q3 2026 Earnings Call Highlights Positive Sentiment: Comcast’s latest reported quarter included adjusted earnings of $1.07 per share, ahead of the $0.99 consensus estimate, while revenue of $29.30 billion was slightly above expectations. The earnings beat provides some support for the stock’s valuation, although year-over-year revenue declined. Neutral Sentiment: Reported short interest was zero shares as of October 26, implying no measurable days-to-cover exposure. This suggests limited evidence of a significant short-selling buildup, but the unusual figure may warrant verification. Neutral Sentiment: Oppenheimer maintained a “hold” stance, while Comcast’s recent visibility among Zacks users reflects increased investor attention rather than a clear change in fundamentals. Oppenheimer Hold Rating Negative Sentiment: Broadband pressure remains the main concern: connectivity and platforms revenue fell 2.6%, and Comcast is experiencing widening broadband losses. Analysts are focused on whether Peacock and wireless growth can sustainably offset deterioration in the core cable business. Comcast Q3 Results Negative Sentiment: Freedom Broker cut its price target from $29 to $25 and assigned a “hold” rating. Although the revised target implies potential upside from the referenced price, the reduction signals less confidence in Comcast’s near-term recovery. TD Cowen has also issued a pessimistic forecast. Freedom Broker Comcast Rating Wall Street Analysts Forecast Growth A number of equities analysts have recently weighed in on the company. Scotiabank lowered their target price on Comcast from $29.00 to $27.50 and set a “sector perform” rating on the stock in a research report on Friday, October 2nd. Deutsche Bank Aktiengesellschaft raised shares of Comcast from a “hold” rating to a “buy” rating and reduced their price target for the company from $34.00 to $32.00 in a research report on Tuesday, June 30th.

Vertiv koupil společnost UtilityInnovation Group za 1,45 miliardy USD
VRT Vertiv Holdings
FMP Stock News 98
Original source text
~$1.45 billion acquisition expected to expand Vertiv's addressable opportunity in power-constrained data centers

UIG's proven team and proprietary technology add microgrid controls, onsite generation orchestration, microgrid-specific switchgear and behind-the-meter power architecture to Vertiv's portfolio

Extends Vertiv's power and cooling portfolio from grid interconnect to chip, independent of any single generation technology or supplier

, /PRNewswire/ -- Vertiv Holdings Co. (NYSE: VRT) ("Vertiv"), a global leader in critical digital infrastructure, today announced its wholly-owned subsidiary, Vertiv Corporation, has completed its acquisition of Utility Innovation Holdings, Inc., which operates as UtilityInnovation Group ("UIG") for approximately $1.45 billion in upfront cash. The transaction includes additional contingent consideration of up to $1.15 billion in cash based on achieving certain earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") targets over 12- and 24-month periods.

Vertiv has completed its acquisition of UtilityInnovation Group, extending Vertiv solutions upstream to the grid interconnect, adding microgrid controls, onsite generation and energy storage orchestration, and behind-the-meter power architecture. © Vertiv At the approximately $1.45 billion purchase price, the acquisition represents approximately 13x expected UIG 2027 EBITDA. The EBITDA multiple is anticipated to be significantly lower if the full earnout is paid. Vertiv expects the acquisition to be accretive to adjusted earnings per share in the first year following completion.

UIG is a leader in microgrid solutions, advanced power controls and behind-the-meter power architecture design for data centers. The acquisition extends Vertiv upstream to the grid interconnect, adding microgrid controls, onsite generation and energy storage orchestration, and behind-the-meter power architecture. These capabilities are expected to help data center operators secure power faster as grid constraints increasingly limit AI infrastructure deployment.

"We are pleased to welcome the UIG team to Vertiv," said Vertiv CEO Giordano Albertazzi. "As AI data center operators work to accelerate deployment in an increasingly power-constrained environment, access to power has become a critical competitive advantage. With UIG now part of Vertiv, we can extend our capabilities upstream to the utility interconnect and onsite power sources, creating a coordinated solution, from behind-the-meter power generation to chip, that helps customers achieve faster time to power without tying them to a single generation technology or supplier."

The Vertiv and UIG combination is expected to give customers greater flexibility in how they source, manage and scale power as data center requirements evolve by:

Accelerating access to power to ease or eliminate dependence on utility interconnection timelines,Enabling Behind the Meter (BTM) site capacity to scale beyond what the grid alone can provide, andProviding a single accountable relationship from grid interconnect through rack-level infrastructure."UIG is excited to advance its mission to solve the power constraints that are slowing AI data center development," said Sidney Hinton, Founder and CEO of UIG. "As part of Vertiv, we will be able to bring our microgrid and behind-the-meter power expertise to a broader set of customers globally, helping accelerate deployment of the critical infrastructure needed to support the growth of AI."

J.P. Morgan Securities LLC acted as financial advisor to Vertiv, and Buchanan Ingersoll & Rooney PC served as legal counsel. Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC acted as financial advisor to UIG, and Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP served as legal counsel.

Madrigal představí data o přípravku Rezdiffra u 12 000 pacientů
MDGL Madrigal Pharmaceuticals
FMP Stock News 88
Original source text
Rezdiffra® (resmetirom) to be featured in more abstracts than any other approved or investigational MASH therapyReal-world evidence abstracts examine Rezdiffra effectiveness, tolerability and treatment persistence in clinical practice; largest dataset spans more than 12,000 patientsClinical abstracts further characterize the positive effects of Rezdiffra on noninvasive measures of treatment response, cardiovascular risk markers and patient-reported outcomes CONSHOHOCKEN, Pa., Oct. 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Madrigal Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: MDGL), a biopharmaceutical company focused on delivering novel therapeutics for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), today announced that new clinical and real-world evidence (RWE) evaluating Rezdiffra and its growing impact on patient care will be presented at the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) The Liver Meeting®, taking place Nov. 5-9 in Denver.

Thirteen abstracts will be presented from the company’s RESONANCE program - a scientifically rigorous RWE program generating a comprehensive body of evidence across multiple data sources in MASH, such as natural history data, health systems, electronic health records, insurance claims and pharmacy data. The abstracts at AASLD will examine real-world treatment patterns, monitoring, adherence and persistence among thousands of patients receiving Rezdiffra in routine clinical practice.

“Rezdiffra established a new treatment era in MASH, and as more patients are being diagnosed and treated, real-world evidence is essential to understanding how treatment is working outside the clinical trial setting,” said David Soergel, M.D., Chief Medical Officer of Madrigal. “The breadth of research being presented at AASLD provides a robust and consistent picture of how patients are responding to Rezdiffra in the real world, including improvements in key noninvasive measures of liver health through 12 months. The observations from multiple independent datasets across thousands of treated patients reinforce Rezdiffra as a foundational treatment for MASH, and reflect our commitment to generating rigorous post-approval evidence to advance the field.”

Rezdiffra (resmetirom) is a once-daily, oral, liver-directed thyroid hormone receptor (THR)-β agonist designed to address key underlying causes of MASH. It was the first medication approved for the treatment of MASH in the U.S. and Europe. In the pivotal Phase 3 MAESTRO-NASH biopsy trial, Rezdiffra achieved both fibrosis improvement and MASH resolution primary endpoints. Rezdiffra also reduced liver stiffness, liver fat, liver enzymes and atherogenic lipids in the MAESTRO-NASH trial and improved health-related quality of life. At one year, 91% of patients treated with Rezdiffra 100mg achieved improvement or stabilization of liver stiffness as measured by vibrational-controlled transient elastography (VCTE), a test that is frequently used to monitor treatment response in clinical practice.

Rezdiffra is indicated in conjunction with diet and exercise for the treatment of adults with noncirrhotic MASH with moderate to advanced liver fibrosis (consistent with stages F2 to F3 fibrosis). Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in ongoing confirmatory trials. Rezdiffra is not approved in any geography for the treatment of patients with cirrhosis.

About MASH
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) is a serious liver disease that can progress to cirrhosis, liver failure, liver cancer, the need for liver transplantation and premature mortality. MASH is the leading cause of liver transplantation in women and the second leading cause of all liver transplantation in the U.S., and the fastest-growing indication for liver transplantation in Europe.

Once patients progress to MASH with moderate to advanced liver fibrosis (consistent with stages F2 to F3 fibrosis), the risk of adverse liver outcomes increases dramatically: these patients have a 10 to 17 times higher risk of liver-related mortality as compared to patients without fibrosis.

Patients with MASH who progress to cirrhosis face a 42 times higher risk of liver-related mortality, underscoring the need to treat MASH before complications of cirrhosis develop. MASH is also an independent driver of cardiovascular disease, the leading cause of mortality for patients.

As disease awareness improves and disease prevalence increases, the number of diagnosed patients F2 to F4c MASH is growing.

About Rezdiffra
What is Rezdiffra?
Rezdiffra is a prescribed medicine used along with diet and exercise to treat adults with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) with moderate to advanced liver scarring (fibrosis), but not with cirrhosis of the liver.

This indication is approved based on improvement of MASH and liver scarring (fibrosis). There are ongoing studies to confirm the clinical benefit of Rezdiffra.

More Selective Insurance Group News Here are the key news stories impacting Selective Insurance Group this week:

Positive Sentiment: Quarterly earnings beat expectations: Selective reported $2.37 in earnings per share versus the $1.91 consensus estimate, while revenue reached $1.33 billion, ahead of the $1.17 billion forecast. The results helped drive the stock to a new 52-week high. Selective Insurance Group Sets New 1-Year High on Better-Than-Expected Earnings Positive Sentiment: Underwriting and investment income remain supportive: Standard commercial renewal pricing increased 5.7% year over year in the third quarter, while after-tax net investment income rose 16%. These trends, along with underwriting discipline and investment gains, helped offset softer top-line growth. Selective Insurance: 3 Key Takeaways for Long-Term Investors Neutral Sentiment: Limited analyst upside: The reported consensus price target is $101, only modestly above the stock’s recent trading level, suggesting that much of the earnings optimism may already be reflected in the valuation. Selective Insurance Group Has Consensus Target Price of $101.00 Neutral Sentiment: Short-interest data is unclear: One report describes a large increase in short interest but simultaneously lists total short interest at zero shares and a 0.0-day short-interest ratio, making the figure unlikely to represent meaningful bearish positioning. Negative Sentiment: Director selling could weigh on sentiment: Director Cynthia Nicholson sold 3,691 shares for approximately $364,339, reducing her position by 17.45%. The sale is not necessarily evidence of deteriorating fundamentals, but it may temper investor confidence after the recent rally.

Deckers zvýšila tržby, ale snížila celoroční výhled
DECK Deckers Outdoor Corporation
FMP Stock News 92
Original source text
Deckers Outdoor Corp. NYSE: DECK delivered a mixed second-quarter earnings report for its fiscal year 2027 (FY2027) on Oct. 22. Earnings beat expectations. Revenue of $1.48 billion fell just short of estimates of $1.51 billion. Management also cut its full-year sales outlook for its HOKA and UGG brands.

Investors reacted decisively. DECK stock fell 5% on Oct. 23 to close at $81.01. That left shares just above their September low.

Get Deckers Outdoor alerts:

But the headline reaction missed a bigger point. The sell-off didn't start with this report. DECK lost roughly 30% between late July and mid-September. Investors were pricing in slower growth long before management confirmed it. That changes how to read the guidance cut. Bad news the market already expected is not really new information. And there is a reasonable case that Deckers set its new outlook low on purpose.

The perception is that Deckers is a growth story in decline. The fundamentals show a company that is still growing, still expanding margins, and buying back stock at a rapid pace.

Deckers has a long record of guiding cautiously and then beating. If that pattern holds, DECK is set up to clear a low bar rather than chase a high one.

The Damage Was Done Before the ReportDECK traded near $110 after its first-quarter report in late July. By mid-September, shares had dropped below $80. That decline came without any new guidance from the company.

The stock then bounced toward $88 heading into earnings. Friday's drop erased that rally, but it did not break new ground. Shares dipped to $78.12 during the session and still held above the September low.

There is technical work left to do. DECK trades below its 50-day moving average of $83.59. It also sits well below its 200-day average of $99.81, which continues to trend lower. Reclaiming the 50-day would be the first sign of repair.

Still, the price action matters. A stock that holds its lows after a guidance cut often signals that sellers are running out of steam.

The Quarter Was Better Than the HeadlineRevenue rose 3.5% to a record $1.48 billion. HOKA sales climbed 6.8% to $677.2 million. UGG grew 3.5% to $786.4 million. Both flagship brands are still growing.

The revenue shortfall was modest. Analysts expected about $1.51 billion. Management tied roughly $22 million of the gap to shipping delays from a European logistics transition. That points to more of a timing issue, not a demand collapse.

Margins were the real highlight. Gross margin jumped to 60.5% from 56.2%. Tariff refunds supplied about 310 basis points of that gain. The rest, about 120 basis points, came from selling more products at full price instead of chasing discounts.

Earnings per share (EPS) came in at $2.31. Excluding the refund benefit, adjusted EPS was about $2.03. That still beat the consensus estimate of $1.79 and grew 11.5% from a year ago.

A Low Bar, Set on PurposeNow look at the new outlook. Deckers expects fiscal 2027 sales of $5.700 billion to $5.725 billion. The prior range was $5.86 billion to $5.91 billion. HOKA growth is now expected in the high single digits. UGG is expected to grow in the low single digits.

Full-year EPS guidance rose to $7.80 to $7.95. But that includes about 52 cents from tariff refunds. Without them, the range is roughly $7.28 to $7.43. That is slightly below the prior outlook.

On paper, that looks like a downgrade. But consider the track record. Deckers has beaten EPS estimates in each of its last five quarters, usually by double-digit percentages. A company that keeps beating is guiding with room to spare.

Management also has every incentive to stay cautious. In a weak consumer market, missing a raised forecast costs far more than beating a lowered one.

There is a hidden upside, too. The outlook includes only the tariff refunds received through Oct. 8. Any further refunds that would add to the results are not yet reflected in the guidance.

Buying Back Stock at a DiscountDeckers is putting its cash to work. It repurchased $637.5 million of stock in the first half of fiscal 2027, at an average price of $98.77. The company carries no debt.

About $4.4 billion remains on the buyback authorization. At today's price, that equals roughly 40% of the company's market value. The current outlook assumes $1 billion in repurchases this year.

Valuation adds to the case. At $81, DECK trades near 11 times the midpoint of its full-year EPS guidance, excluding tariff refunds. That is a low multiple for a debt-free company with operating margins above 20% and two growing global brands.

The Risks Are Real; So Is the Balance SheetThe bear case is real. Direct-to-consumer comparable sales fell 6.4%. Domestic sales slipped 0.4%. HOKA's growth rate keeps slowing, and that remains the stock's biggest long-term question.

There is also a caveat to the lowball thesis. Second-quarter revenue came in below management's own internal expectations, not just Wall Street's. Conservative guidance only works if the company can hit it.

The Deckers analyst forecasts on MarketBeat continue to shift to a bearish stance. The consensus rating of 26 analysts is Hold, with 11 Holds and four Sell ratings.

Even so, the balance of risk has shifted. The sell-off began months before this report.

The guidance cut confirms what the stock had already priced in. And the new bar looks low enough to clear.

For patient investors, that gap between perception and the company's fundamentals is the opportunity.

The perception is a fading growth story. The fundamentals show a profitable, debt-free company buying back its own shares at a discount.

"We finished fiscal 2026 with significant momentum, delivering more than 8% organic revenue growth, double-digit adjusted EPS growth and strong free cash flow conversion," said Joakim Weidemanis, Chief Executive Officer of Johnson Controls. "Our strong topline growth, combined with continued productivity and simplification improvements, led to margin expansion across all three segments. That performance reflects the strength of our differentiated technological capabilities, unmatched field presence and proprietary business system, which help us move with speed, win with customers and strengthen performance. With record backlog and sustained customer demand, we enter fiscal 2027 with confidence in our ability to continue creating value for customers and shareholders."

FISCAL Q4 SEGMENT RESULTS

The financial highlights presented in the tables below exclude discontinued operations and are in accordance with GAAP, unless otherwise indicated. All comparisons are to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. Orders and backlog metrics included in the release relate to the Company's Solutions and Services based businesses. Orders prior to Q1 2026 exclude certain equipment-only sales for longer cycle projects. Backlog has been restated to include this new category.

OTHER Q4 ITEMS

The Company paid dividends of $242 million.GUIDANCE

The following forward-looking statements are non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are derived by excluding certain amounts from the corresponding financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The determination of the amounts excluded is a matter of management judgment and depends upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense or income amounts recognized in a given period and the high variability of certain amounts, such as mark-to-market adjustments. Organic revenue growth excludes the effect of acquisitions, divestitures and foreign currency. The Company is unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of the aforementioned forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to its most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures because such information is not available, and management cannot reliably predict the necessary components of such GAAP measures without unreasonable effort or expense. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on the Company's fiscal 2027 first quarter and full year GAAP financial results.

The Company initiated fiscal 2027 first quarter continuing operations guidance:

FOOTNOTES

1.   Sale of Residential and Light Commercial HVAC Business

In July 2025, the Company sold its Residential and Light Commercial ("R&LC") HVAC business, including the North America Ducted business and the global Residential joint venture with Hitachi Global Life Solutions, Inc. ("Hitachi"), of which Johnson Controls owned 60% and Hitachi owned 40%. The R&LC HVAC business met the criteria to be classified as a discontinued operation and, as a result, its historical financial results are reflected in the consolidated financial statements as a discontinued operation.

2.   Non-GAAP Measures

The Company reports various non-GAAP measures in this earnings release and the related earnings presentation.  Non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, and not as replacements for, the most comparable GAAP measures. Refer to the following footnotes for further information on the calculations of the non-GAAP measures and reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures.

Organic sales

Organic sales growth excludes the impact of acquisitions, divestitures and foreign currency. Management believes organic sales growth is useful to investors in understanding period-over-period sales results and trends.

Cash flow

Management believes free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow measures are useful to investors in understanding the strength of the Company and its ability to generate cash. These non-GAAP measures can also be used to evaluate the Company's ability to generate cash flow from operations and the impact that this cash flow has on its liquidity. Management also believes adjusted free cash flows are useful to investors in understanding period-over-period cash flows, cash trends and ongoing cash flows of the Company.

Adjusted free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow conversion are non-GAAP measures which exclude the impacts of the following:

JC Capital cash flows primarily include activity associated with finance/notes receivables and inventory and/or capital expenditures related to lease arrangements. JC Capital net income is primarily related to interest income on the finance/notes receivable and profit recognized on arrangements with sales-type lease components.The impact of the accounts receivables factoring program which was discontinued in March 2024.Cash payments related to the water systems AFFF settlement and cash receipts for AFFF-related insurance recoveries.Prepayment of royalty fees associated with certain IP licensed to divested businesses.Discrete tax payments are non-recurring tax settlements for certain non-US jurisdictions.Adjusted financial measures

Adjusted financial measures are non-GAAP measures that are derived by excluding certain amounts from the corresponding financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The determination of the excluded amounts is a matter of management judgment and depends upon the nature and variability of the underlying expense or income amounts and other factors.

As detailed in the tables included in footnotes four through seven, the following items were excluded from certain financial measures:

Net mark-to-market adjustments are the result of adjusting restricted asbestos investments and pension and postretirement plan assets to their current market value. These adjustments may have a favorable or unfavorable impact on results. Restructuring and impairment costs represents restructuring costs attributable to Johnson Controls including costs associated with exit plans or other restructuring plans that will have a more significant impact on the underlying cost structure of the organization. Impairment costs primarily relate to write-downs of goodwill, intangible assets and assets held for sale to their fair value.Water systems AFFF settlement and insurance recoveries include amounts related to a settlement with a nationwide class of public water systems concerning the use of AFFF manufactured and sold by a subsidiary of the Company, and AFFF-related insurance recoveries. Transaction/separation costs include costs associated with significant mergers and acquisitions. Transformation costs represent incremental expenses incurred in association with strategic growth initiatives and cost saving opportunities in order to realize the benefits of portfolio simplification and the Company's lifecycle solutions strategy.ERP asset - accelerated depreciation represents a change in ERP strategy within the EMEA segment, which led to certain assets being abandoned and the useful lives reduced.Gain on divestiture relates to the sale of the ADT Mexico Security business.  Discrete tax items, net includes the net impact of discrete tax items within the period, including the following types of items: changes in estimates associated with valuation allowances, changes in estimates associated with reserves for uncertain tax positions, withholding taxes recorded upon changes in indefinite re-investment assertions for businesses to be disposed of and impacts from statutory rate changes.Related tax impact includes the tax impact of the various excluded items.Management believes the exclusion of these items is useful to investors due to the unusual nature and/or magnitude of the amounts. When considered together with unadjusted amounts, adjusted financial measures are useful to investors in understanding period-over-period operating results, business trends and ongoing operations of the Company. Management may also use these metrics as guides in forecasting, budgeting and long-term planning processes and for compensation purposes.

Operating leverage

Operating leverage is defined as the change in adjusted EBIT for the period, divided by the corresponding change in net revenues. Management believes operating leverage is a useful metric to reflect enterprise value creation, capturing the impact of scale and cost discipline across the organization.

Debt ratios

Management believes that net debt to adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, is useful to understanding the Company's financial condition as the ratio provides an overview of the extent to which the Company relies on external debt financing for its funding and also is a measure of risk to its shareholders.

Original source text
DENVER, Oct. 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Simply Good Foods Company (Nasdaq: SMPL) (“Simply Good Foods,” or the “Company”), a leader in the Nutritional Snacking category, today reported financial results for the thirteen and fifty-two weeks ended August 29, 2026.

Fourth Quarter Summary:(1)

Net sales of $333.3 million versus $369.0 millionNet income of $30.5 million versus net loss of $12.4 millionEarnings per diluted share of $0.34 versus loss per diluted share of $0.12Adjusted Diluted EPS(2) of $0.44 versus $0.46Adjusted EBITDA(3) $57.5 million versus $66.2 million
Fiscal Year 2027(4) Outlook:

Net sales expected to decline between 13% and 17% year-over-yearGross margins (GAAP) expected to increase between 250 and 300 basis points year-over-yearAdjusted EBITDA expected to decline between 9% and 14% year-over-year
“Fiscal 2026 was a year of decisive action. We recognized that our performance was not where it needed to be and moved quickly to reset the business. We aligned the organization around a focused set of priorities, accelerated work to improve our cost structure, strengthened our financial flexibility, and overhauled our marketing approach across Quest, Atkins, and OWYN. We delivered on the modest financial commitments we made following our second quarter reset, continued to generate significant cash flow despite lower net sales, and completed much of the foundational work necessary to improve the long-term trajectory of the business,” said Joe Scalzo, President and Chief Executive Officer.

Scalzo continued, “Fiscal 2027 will be a challenging but important year in our turnaround. While we expect significant declines in net sales and Adjusted EBITDA, we are taking the actions necessary to restore the economic foundation of the business and rebuild brand momentum. We are reinvesting a portion of our margin recovery behind our brands, with new marketing strategies designed to strengthen consumer connection and improve underlying brand health. We expect performance to improve over the course of the year as our marketing investments take hold, the volume impact of pricing eases, and year-over-year comparisons become more favorable. We believe these actions will position us to exit fiscal 2027 with stronger momentum, improved profitability, and a healthier foundation for long-term growth.”

Fourth Quarter 2026 Results(1)

Net sales of $333.3 million decreased $35.7 million, or 9.7%, versus the comparable year ago period driven by a decline for Atkins and OWYN of 14.9% and 20.6%, respectively. The Company's net sales performance was largely driven by softer retail takeaway and velocity-related distribution pressure.

Total Simply Good Foods fourth quarter retail takeaway(5) decreased about 8% driven by declines for Atkins, OWYN, and Quest of approximately 23%, 7%, and 2%, respectively.

Gross profit of $113.3 million decreased 10.5% versus the comparable year ago period, driven by volume declines, higher input costs, and restructuring costs. Gross margin was 34.0%, a decline of 30 basis points versus prior year, which was largely driven by higher input costs.

Selling and marketing expenses were $32.4 million for both the fiscal fourth quarter and comparable year ago period.

General and administrative ("G&A") expenses of $30.6 million, which contain $1.9 million in restructuring costs, decreased 24.8% versus the comparable year ago period, which includes $8.7 million of integration expenses.

Net interest expense of $4.7 million reflected a 28.7% increase versus the comparable year ago period due to a higher debt balance.

The effective tax rate was 25.6%.

Net income of $30.5 million compared to net loss of $12.4 million for the comparable year ago period.

Adjusted EBITDA of $57.5 million decreased 13.2% versus the comparable year ago period.

Reported earnings per diluted share was $0.34 versus reported loss per diluted share of $0.12 in the comparable year ago period.

Adjusted Diluted EPS was $0.44 versus $0.46 in the comparable year ago period.

Weighted average diluted shares outstanding of 88.5 million declined modestly versus the comparable year ago period, reflecting share repurchases.

Fiscal Year 2026 Summary:

Net sales were $1,356.5 million versus $1,450.9 millionNet loss of $155.9 million versus net income of $103.6 millionLoss per diluted share of $1.69 versus earnings per diluted share of $1.02Adjusted Diluted EPS(2) of $1.70 versus $1.92Adjusted EBITDA(3) of $225.9 million versus $278.2 million
Net sales of $1,356.5 million decreased 6.5% versus the comparable year ago period, driven by declines for Atkins and OWYN of 20.9% and 9.7%, respectively, partially offset by Quest growth of 0.7%. Atkins distribution-related declines were largely as expected. OWYN's net sales decline was the result of poor velocities, including on newly expanded distribution.

Total Simply Good Foods retail takeaway decreased approximately 5% driven by declines for Atkins of approximately 22%, partially offset by Quest and OWYN growth of about 3% and 1% respectively.

Gross profit of $442.4 million decreased 15.9% versus the comparable year ago period, driven by higher input costs. Gross margin was 32.6%, a 360-basis point decline versus the comparable year ago period, driven mainly by $6.5 million of one-time OWYN integration expenses and $5.7 million of restructuring costs.

Selling and marketing expenses of $129.4 million decreased 3.6% versus the comparable year ago period driven by planned marketing declines for Atkins, which more than offset increases to support growth for Quest and OWYN.

G&A expenses of $143.9 million, which includes restructuring costs of $12.7 million, integration expenses of $4.1 million, and term loan transaction fees of $3.0 million, decreased 7.7% versus the comparable year ago period, which included $20.5 million of integration expenses and $0.7 million of term loan transaction fees.

As part of the Company's process to evaluate the carrying value of our brands, prior to the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2026 we recognized $331.0 million non-cash, impairment charges related to Goodwill, and the Atkins and OWYN brand intangible assets. The impairment is largely the result of current fiscal year performance, updated projections of future revenue, and declines in stock price.

Net interest expense of $18.5 million reflected a 10% decrease versus the comparable year ago period due to lower interest rates.

The effective tax rate was 21.3%.

Net loss of $155.9 million compared to net income of $103.6 million for the comparable year ago period.

Adjusted EBITDA of $225.9 million decreased 18.8% versus the comparable year ago period.

Reported loss per diluted share of $1.69 versus reported earnings per diluted share of $1.02 in the comparable year ago period.

Adjusted Diluted EPS was $1.70 versus $1.92 in the comparable year ago period.

Weighted average diluted shares outstanding of 92.4 million declined modestly versus the comparable year ago period, reflecting share repurchases.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

At the end of fiscal year 2026, the Company had cash of $138.4 million and an outstanding principal balance on its term loan of $350.0 million, bringing the Company's quarter-end trailing twelve-month Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio to 0.9x(6). Cash flow from operations was about $181.0 million versus $178.5 million in the comparable year ago period. Capital expenditures were approximately $24.1 million.

Fiscal Year 2027 Outlook

The Company anticipates the following in fiscal year 2027:

Net sales expected to decline between 13% and 17% year-over-yearGross margins (GAAP) expected to increase between 250 and 300 basis points year-over-yearAdjusted EBITDA expected to decline between 9% and 14% year-over-year
The Company expects net interest expense in the range of $18 to $20 million. The Company expects capital expenditures in the range of $15 to $20 million.

For the first quarter of fiscal year 2027:

The Company expects net sales to decline between 19% and 22% year-over-yearGross margins (GAAP) expected to increase by approximately 100 basis points year-over-yearAdjusted EBITDA expected to decline between 28% and 33% year-over-year
The foregoing outlook assumes current economic conditions, consumer purchasing behavior and prevailing tariff rates remain generally consistent across the Company's fiscal year.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures commonly used in our industry and should not be construed as alternatives to net income as an indicator of operating performance or as alternatives to cash flow provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity (each as determined in accordance with GAAP). Simply Good Foods defines EBITDA as net income or loss before interest income, interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, and Adjusted EBITDA as further adjusted to exclude the following items: loss on impairment, stock-based compensation expense, business transaction costs, purchase price accounting inventory step-up, integration expense, term loan transaction fees, restructuring and other costs, and other non-core expenses. The Company believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, when used in conjunction with net income, are useful to provide additional information to investors. Management of the Company uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to supplement net income because these measures reflect operating results of the on-going operations, eliminate items that are not directly attributable to the Company’s underlying operating performance, enhance the overall understanding of past financial performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to the key metrics the Company’s management uses in its financial and operational decision making. The Company also believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in its industry. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to differences in the non-GAAP calculation.

The following unaudited table provides a reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to its most directly comparable GAAP measure, which is net income, for the thirteen and fifty-two weeks ended August 29, 2026, and thirteen and fifty-two weeks ended August 30, 2025:

Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share. Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share is a non-GAAP financial measure commonly used in our industry and should not be construed as an alternative to diluted earnings per share as an indicator of operating performance. Simply Good Foods defines Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share as diluted earnings per share before depreciation and amortization, loss on impairment, stock-based compensation expense, business transaction costs, purchase price accounting inventory step-up, integration expense, term loan transaction fees, restructuring and other costs, and other non-core expenses, on a theoretical tax effected basis of such adjustments. The tax effect of such adjustments to Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share is calculated by applying an overall assumed statutory tax rate to each gross adjustment as shown in the reconciliation to Adjusted EBITDA, as previously defined. The assumed statutory tax rate reflects a normalized effective tax rate estimated based on assumptions regarding the Company's statutory and effective tax rate for each respective reporting period, including the current and deferred tax effects of each adjustment, and is adjusted for the effects of tax reform, if any. The Company consistently applies the overall assumed statutory tax rate to periods throughout each fiscal year and reassesses the overall assumed statutory rate on annual basis. The Company believes that the inclusion of these supplementary adjustments in presenting Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share, when used in conjunction with diluted earnings per share, are appropriate to provide additional information to investors, reflects more accurately operating results of the on-going operations, enhances the overall understanding of past financial performance and future prospects and allows for greater transparency with respect to the key metrics the Company uses in its financial and operational decision making. The Company also believes that Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in its industry.

, /PRNewswire/ -- CONNECTIONS CONFERENCE -- Guidewire (NYSE: GWRE) announced today that it entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Hyperexponential Ltd ("hyperexponential" or "hx") for a base purchase price of $1.7 billion in cash, subject to adjustments, and up to an additional $400 million in contingent consideration based on achievement of specified recurring revenue targets. hyperexponential is a London-based agentic platform provider of AI-native underwriting and pricing software for commercial lines P&C insurers. hyperexponential is an existing Guidewire PartnerConnect Technology Alliance Partner. hyperexponential brings established trust and scale in underwriting, having powered underwriting decisions across more than $75 billion in annual commercial P&C premium for leading global insurers, reinsurers, and managing general agents (MGAs). The acquisition is expected to accelerate ARR and revenue growth while remaining consistent with Guidewire's long-term margin targets.

hyperexponential is the agentic platform for commercial P&C insurance underwriting.

Guidewire announces agreement to acquire hyperexponential.

The acquisition strengthens Guidewire's leadership in P&C technology and sets up the company to define agentic underwriting, a new approach in which AI agents work alongside underwriters and actuaries to assess risk, price it, and make decisions, from the most complex specialty risks to high-volume commercial business. Insurers will be able to respond to more submissions, faster, with pricing and risk decisions that consistently reflect their best underwriting judgment. This will enable insurers to write more profitable business, grow into new lines with confidence, and free underwriting teams to focus on the risks where their expertise matters most.

"We're delighted to welcome Amrit Santhirasenan and the team at hyperexponential to Guidewire. There isn't another company in the world whose passion for insurance, technical ambition, and vision for the potential of AI in insurance align so closely with our own," said Mike Rosenbaum, chief executive officer, Guidewire. "Insurance is a distinctly complex industry, where the quality of risk decisions has an immense impact on business outcomes. Guidewire and hyperexponential are uniquely positioned to deliver industry-specific AI solutions that will transform commercial underwriting. Together we will bring greater and more scalable intelligence to the insurance decisions that will help underwrite the risks of tomorrow."

"We founded hyperexponential on the conviction that underwriting judgment is the highest-leverage work insurers do," said Amrit Santhirasenan, CEO and co-founder, hyperexponential. "Guidewire is the most trusted name in P&C insurance technology, with deep expertise in managing and safeguarding the policy and risk information insurers rely on throughout the insurance lifecycle. Together, we'll bring insight from submission to bind and from the individual risk to the entire portfolio. With hx and Guidewire, insurers will be able to respond to submissions faster and, more importantly, improve loss ratios and allocate capital more effectively."

Underwriting speed and accuracy remain vital to pricing risk appropriately and maintaining portfolio resilience as P&C insurers face changing environmental, market, and regulatory conditions. AI-driven reductions in time-to-quote, among other factors, are having a significant effect on P&C insurer revenue, according to the Celent report "AI Trends Across the Insurance Value Chain: P&C Edition - North America." Celent notes that "...one industry consulting firm working with US and UK commercial P&C insurers found AI can improve underwriting efficiency significantly in complex lines and reduce loss ratios by percentage points by making use of previously unstructured data like telematics, satellite imagery, and loss history."

hyperexponential has established a leading position in AI-native underwriting and pricing, with a particularly strong presence among commercial and specialty insurers in the United Kingdom. The transaction is expected to contribute at least 650 basis points to Guidewire's fiscal year 2027 ARR growth on an inorganic basis and then, starting in fiscal year 2028, at least 150 basis points to Guidewire's durable organic ARR growth, further strengthening the company's long-term growth profile.

Transaction Details 

Guidewire expects to fund the transaction through $1.0 billion in new term loan financing and existing cash on hand. Guidewire has secured a binding debt commitment for the loan from Bank of America, N.A. and Citibank, N.A. The acquisition is expected to close in the second quarter of Guidewire's fiscal year 2027. This acquisition is expected to have no impact on Guidewire's first quarter of fiscal year 2027 guidance previously issued on September 3, 2026. Guidewire will provide guidance for the second quarter of fiscal year 2027 and update full year fiscal 2027 guidance on its next earnings call in December 2026.

(October 27, 2026) – Hubbell Incorporated (NYSE: HUBB) today reported operating results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026.

“Hubbell delivered strong financial performance in the third quarter, with double digit growth in organic sales, adjusted operating profit, adjusted earnings per share and free cash flow” said Gerben Bakker, Chairman, President and CEO.

Mr. Bakker continued, “Third quarter results were highlighted by >20% organic growth in Electrical Solutions, led by strong datacenter markets and bolstered by content gains and capacity expansion investments. NSI results were strong in the quarter, and performance and integration efforts are trending ahead of our initial expectations. Utility Solutions delivered solid organic growth in the quarter, led by distribution, transmission and substation markets. Orders and end market demand remained strong, driving continued backlog build in the quarter, and we remain focused on proactively investing in capacity expansion to serve our customers in high growth areas.”

Mr. Bakker concluded, "We are raising our full year 2026 outlook, primarily driven by stronger anticipated Electrical Solutions growth."

Certain terms used in this release, including “net debt”, “free cash flow”, “organic net sales”, “organic net sales growth”, “restructuring-related costs”, “Adjusted EBITDA”, and certain other “adjusted” measures, are defined under the section entitled “Non-GAAP Definitions.” See page 11 for more information.

THIRD QUARTER FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

The comments and year-over-year comparisons in this segment review are based on third quarter results in 2026 and 2025.

Utility Solutions segment net sales in the third quarter of 2026 increased 9% to $1,028 million compared to $944 million reported in the third quarter of 2025. Organic net sales increased approximately 5% in the quarter compared to the third quarter of 2025. Grid Infrastructure net sales increased approximately 13% and Grid Automation net sales decreased approximately 4%. Segment operating income in the third quarter of 2026 was $241 million, or 23.5% of net sales, compared to $219 million, or 23.2% of net sales, in the same period of 2025. Adjusted operating income was $267 million, or 26.0% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2026 as compared to $242 million, or 25.7% of net sales, in the same period of the prior year. Changes in operating income and operating margin were primarily due to volume growth, the impact of acquisitions, favorable price realization, productivity and a net tariff benefit, partially offset by higher cost inflation and raw material costs.

Electrical Solutions segment net sales in the third quarter of 2026 increased 51% to $845 million compared to $559 million reported in the third quarter of 2025. Organic net sales increased 22% in the quarter, while acquisitions added 29%. Segment operating income in the third quarter of 2026 was $168 million, or 19.8% of net sales, compared to $111 million, or 19.9% of net sales, in the same period of 2025. Adjusted operating income was $210 million, or 24.8% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2026 as compared to $116 million, or 20.8% of net sales, in the same period of the prior year. Changes in operating income and operating margin were driven primarily by volume growth, the impact of acquisitions, favorable price realization, productivity and a net tariff benefit, partially offset by higher cost inflation and raw material costs.

Adjusted diluted EPS in the third quarter of 2026 excluded $0.89 of amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and $0.08 of transaction, integration & separation costs. Adjusted diluted EPS in the third quarter of 2025 excluded $0.35 of amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and $0.05 of transaction, integration, & separation costs.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $323 million in the third quarter of 2026 versus net cash provided by operating activities of $284 million in the same period in 2025. Free cash flow was $280 million in the third quarter of 2026 versus $254 million in the comparable period of 2025.

SUMMARY & OUTLOOK

For the full year 2026, Hubbell anticipates total sales growth of 18-19%, including organic sales growth of 10-11%. Hubbell expects 2026 GAAP diluted earnings per share in the range of $17.30 to $17.50 and adjusted diluted earnings per share (“Adjusted EPS”) in the range of $20.40 to $20.60. For the full year, Adjusted EPS excludes amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, which the Company expects to be approximately $2.50 per share, and transaction, integration, and separation costs, which the Company expects to be approximately $0.60 per share. The Company believes Adjusted EPS is a useful measure of underlying performance in light of our acquisition strategy.

The diluted earnings per share and Adjusted EPS ranges are based on an adjusted tax rate of 22.0% to 22.5% and include approximately $20 million of anticipated restructuring and related investment. The Company expects full year 2026 free cash flow conversion of approximately 90% on adjusted net income.

CONFERENCE CALL

Hubbell will conduct an earnings conference call to discuss its third quarter 2026 financial results today, October 27, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. ET.

NON-GAAP DEFINITIONS

References to "adjusted" operating measures exclude the impact of certain costs, gains or losses. Management believes these adjusted operating measures provide useful information regarding our underlying performance from period to period and an understanding of our results of operations without regard to items we do not consider a component of our core operating performance. Adjusted operating measures are non-GAAP measures, and include adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income attributed to Hubbell Incorporated, adjusted net income available to common shareholders, adjusted earnings per diluted share, and Adjusted EBITDA. These non-GAAP measures exclude, where applicable:

Amortization of all intangible assets associated with our business acquisitions, including inventory step-up amortization associated with those acquisitions. The intangible assets associated with our business acquisitions arise from the allocation of the purchase price using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 805, “Business Combinations.” These assets consist primarily of customer relationships, developed technology, trademarks and tradenames, and patents, as reported in Note 6—Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, under the heading “Total Definite-Lived Intangibles,” within the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements set forth in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. The Company believes that the exclusion of these non-cash expenses (i) enhances management’s and investors’ ability to analyze underlying business performance, (ii) facilitates comparisons of our financial results over multiple periods, and (iii) provides more relevant comparisons of our results with the results of other companies as the amortization expense associated with these assets may fluctuate significantly from period to period based on the timing, size, nature, and number of acquisitions. Although we exclude amortization of these acquired intangible assets and inventory step-up from our non-GAAP results, we believe that it is important for investors to understand that revenue generated, in part, from such intangibles is included within revenue in determining adjusted net income attributable to Hubbell Incorporated. Transaction, integration, and separation costs associated with our business acquisitions and divestitures. The effect that acquisitions and divestitures may have on our results can fluctuate significantly based on the timing, size, and number of transactions, and therefore result in significant volatility in the costs to complete transactions and integrate or separate the businesses. Transaction costs are primarily professional services and other fees incurred to complete the transactions recognized within operating income, as well as $7.2 million of bridge financing costs in connection with the transactions recognized within interest expense during the second quarter of 2026. Integration and separation costs are the internal and external incremental costs directly relating to these activities for the acquired or divested business. The acquisition and integration of NSI, DMC Power and the acquisitions and disposition completed by the Company in the fourth quarter of 2023 resulted in a significant increase in transaction, integration and separation costs. As a result, we believe excluding such costs relating to these transactions provides useful and more comparable information for investors to better assess our operating performance from period to period.Gains or losses on disposition of a business. The Company excludes these gains or losses because we believe they enhance management's and investors' ability to analyze underlying business performance and facilitates comparisons of our financial results over multiple periods. In the second quarter of 2025 the Company recognized a $0.4 million pre-tax loss on the disposition of a product line in the Electrical Solutions segment.Income tax effects of the above adjustments, which are calculated using the statutory tax rate, taking into consideration the nature of the item and the relevant taxing jurisdiction, unless otherwise noted. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that excludes the items noted above and also excludes the Other income (expense), net, Interest expense, net, and Provision for income taxes captions of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income, as well as depreciation and amortization expense.

Net debt (defined as total debt less cash and investments) to total capital is a non-GAAP measure that we believe is a useful measure for evaluating the Company's financial leverage and the ability to meet its funding needs.

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure that we believe provides useful information regarding the Company's ability to generate cash without reliance on external financing. In addition, management uses free cash flow to evaluate the resources available for investments in the business, strategic acquisitions and further strengthening the balance sheet.

In connection with our restructuring and related actions, we have incurred restructuring costs as defined by U.S. GAAP, which are primarily severance and employee benefits, asset impairments, accelerated depreciation, as well as facility closure, contract termination and certain pension costs that are directly related to restructuring actions. We also incur restructuring-related costs, which are costs associated with our business transformation initiatives, including the consolidation of back-office functions and streamlining our processes, and certain other costs and gains associated with restructuring actions. We refer to these costs on a combined basis as "restructuring and related costs", which is a non-GAAP measure.

Organic net sales, a non-GAAP measure, represents Net sales according to U.S. GAAP, less Net sales from acquisitions and divestitures during the first twelve months of ownership or divestiture, respectively, less the effect of fluctuations in Net sales from foreign currency exchange. The period-over-period effect of fluctuations in Net sales from foreign currency exchange is calculated as the difference between local currency Net sales of the prior period translated at the current period exchange rate as compared to the same local currency Net sales translated at the prior period exchange rate. We believe this measure provides management and investors with a more complete understanding of the underlying operating results and trends of established, ongoing operations by excluding the effect of acquisitions, dispositions and foreign currency, as these activities can obscure underlying trends. When comparing Net sales growth between periods excluding the effects of acquisitions, business dispositions and currency exchange rates, those effects are different when comparing results for different periods. For example, because Net sales from acquisitions are considered inorganic from the date we complete an acquisition through the end of the first year following the acquisition, Net sales from such acquisitions are reflected as organic net sales thereafter.

There are limitations to the use of non-GAAP measures. Non-GAAP measures do not present complete financial results. We compensate for this limitation by providing a reconciliation between our non-GAAP financial measures and the respective most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. These financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, as substitutes for, or alternative measures of, reported GAAP financial results, and should be viewed in conjunction with the most comparable GAAP financial measures and the provided reconciliations thereto. We believe, however, that these non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed together with our GAAP results and related reconciliations, provide a more complete understanding of our business. We strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not rely on any single financial measure.

Reconciliations of each of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure can be found in the tables below. When we provide our expectations for organic net sales, adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted diluted EPS and free cash flow on a forward-looking basis, a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP expectations and the corresponding GAAP measures (expected net sales, effective tax rate, diluted EPS and net cash flows provided by operating activities) generally is not available without unreasonable effort due to potentially high variability, complexity and low visibility as to the items that would be excluded from the GAAP measure in the relevant future period, such as unusual gains and losses, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, the impact and timing of potential acquisitions and divestitures, certain financing costs, and other structural changes or their probable significance. The variability of the excluded items may have a significant, and potentially unpredictable, impact on our future GAAP results.

Mercedes-Benz snížil celoroční výhled kvůli slabé poptávce v Číně
MBG Mercedes Benz Group
Patria Stock News 94
Original source text
Přestože Mercedes-Benz vykázal ve třetím čtvrtletí výrazně vyšší provozní zisk než před rokem, investoři se soustředili především na horší výhled pro celý rok. Automobilka totiž nově počítá jen se stagnací zisku a nižšími maržemi, což potvrzuje, že tlak na evropské výrobce aut zůstává silný. Slabá Čína, vysoké výrobní náklady a sílící konkurence nutí tradiční německé značky přehodnocovat své dosavadní strategie.

Německý výrobce luxusních automobilů Mercedes-Benz zhoršil celoroční výhled kvůli obtížným podmínkám v Číně a rostoucím nákladům. Oznámila to dnes firma. Automobilka nyní předpokládá, že její provozní zisk letos zůstane beze změny, zatímco dříve počítala s jeho výrazným růstem. Akcie podniku na zhoršení výhledu reagovaly poklesem.

Firma dnes rovněž uvedla, že ve třetím čtvrtletí její provozní zisk podle předběžných údajů dosáhl 1,77 miliardy eur (zhruba 43 miliard Kč). Výrazně tak vzrostl ze 750 milionů eur před rokem. Tehdy však výsledky podniku zasáhly rozsáhlé mimořádné náklady související se snižováním počtu zaměstnanců a právními spory, upozornila agentura DPA.

Společnost Mercedes-Benz dnes rovněž předpověděla, že její zisková marže bez zahrnutí mimořádných vlivů bude letos činit dvě až tři procenta. Dříve celoroční marži odhadovala na tři až pět procent. "Kromě čím dál obtížnějších podmínek v Číně očekává skupina Mercedes-Benz vyšší náklady ve čtvrtém čtvrtletí," píše se v dnešní zprávě.

Automobilka již minulý měsíc uvedla, že její výroba v Německu není z mezinárodního hlediska konkurenceschopná, a to zejména kvůli vysokým nákladům na pracovní sílu. Její výrobní ředitel Michael Schiebe při zářijovém setkání se zaměstnanci dokonce varoval, že dva německé závody by mohly ukončit provoz.

Německý automobilový průmysl se v poslední době potýká s řadou problémů, včetně vysokých nákladů, nadbytečných kapacit, rostoucí čínské konkurence nebo amerických cel. Ke zhoršení výhledů již letos přikročily i německé automobilky Volkswagen a BMW.

Dozorčí rada Volkswagenu, jehož součástí je rovněž Škoda Auto, minulý měsíc schválila největší restrukturalizační plán v historii podniku. Volkswagen mimo jiné plánuje zrušit do konce desetiletí po celém světě až 100.000 pracovních míst či omezit počet modelů. Na konci loňského roku koncern zaměstnával kolem 663.000 lidí.

Podle českého odborového svazu KOVO požaduje Volkswagen rovněž zmrazení mezd zaměstnanců Škody Auto do roku 2030. Škoda Auto patří mezi největší zaměstnavatele v České republice. Ve svých třech českých výrobních závodech v Mladé Boleslavi, Kvasinách a Vrchlabí zaměstnává zhruba 36.500 lidí včetně agenturních pracovníků.

CoreWeave zprovoznil kapacitu v Kodani a rozšiřuje síť pro AI
CRWV CoreWeave
FMP Stock News 92
Original source text
CoreWeave, Inc. (Nasdaq: CRWV), The Essential Cloud for AI™, today announced an expansion of its global AI cloud platform, bringing new computing capacity online in Denmark and extending its Global AI Network into the Middle East and Asia Pacific. The expansion strengthens CoreWeave’s ability to deliver the performance, reliability, and connectivity customers need to build and scale AI workloads across international markets.

As AI workloads move into production across more industries and geographies, customers need computing capacity where they operate and the ability to move large volumes of data securely and efficiently between regions. CoreWeave is expanding both capabilities as part of its fully integrated, purpose-built AI cloud platform, reducing the infrastructure complexity that can slow AI development and deployment.

With this expansion, CoreWeave is building the first global AI backbone network, purpose-built for AI workloads, at Petabit-scale, that connects locations in North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia Pacific.

“Our customers need more than access to computing capacity. They need infrastructure that performs reliably at scale and the ability to move data and workloads wherever their business requires,” said Sachin Jain, chief operating officer of CoreWeave. “We’re expanding our global infrastructure and the network connecting it together, so customers can focus on building and improving AI rather than managing the complexity underneath it.”

CoreWeave has brought the majority of its planned 22.5 megawatts (MW) of IT capacity online at atNorth’s DEN01 data center in Copenhagen, marking its first deployment in Denmark. DEN01 has a heat reuse agreement in place to supply surplus heat to the district heating network, reducing reliance on alternative heating sources and contributing to Denmark’s green transition.

Accelerated by NVIDIA Blackwell systems connected with NVIDIA Quantum-X800 InfiniBand, the facility expands CoreWeave’s European infrastructure footprint to nine data centers across five geographies, including the United Kingdom, Spain, Sweden, and Norway.

“Modern workloads demand digital infrastructure that is not only high performance, but also energy efficient and responsibly operated, “said Eyjólfur Magnús Kristinsson, CEO at atNorth. “By partnering with atNorth, CoreWeave gains access to DEN01’s infrastructure, designed for GPU-intensive processing, while supporting renewable energy development through power purchase agreements and helping warm local homes through heat reuse, contributing to the green transition.”

To connect its growing international infrastructure footprint, CoreWeave is extending its global AI network backbone with new points of presence in the United Arab Emirates, India, Indonesia, Singapore, Australia, Korea and Japan, beginning later in the fourth quarter of 2026 and extending to a full loop in mid-2027. The expansion will extend CoreWeave’s existing network across North America and Europe into four continents, providing customers with more direct connectivity to its AI cloud platform.

Purpose-built for AI workloads, CoreWeave’s backbone combines multiple 400 gigabit-per-second connections at each point of presence, hardware-based MACsec encryption to protect data in transit, and redundant network paths designed to maintain performance and reliability across regions. Together, these capabilities enable customers to move large datasets and access computing infrastructure without sacrificing the speed or security their workloads require.

The expansion follows CoreWeave’s recent announcements in Indonesia and India, reflecting continued investment in the infrastructure needed to support AI development and deployment globally. CoreWeave operated 51 data centers worldwide with more than 1.5 gigawatts of active power as of June 30, 2026 and had approximately 4.2 gigawatts of contracted power as of its August 11, 2026 earnings call.

CoreWeave consistently delivers industry-leading performance, demonstrated by record-breaking MLPerf benchmark results in inference and training and its position as the only AI cloud to earn the top Platinum ranking in SemiAnalysis ClusterMAX™ three times in a row.

About CoreWeave
CoreWeave is The Essential Cloud for AI®. Built for pioneers by pioneers, CoreWeave delivers a fully integrated platform of technology and teams that enables innovators to move at the pace of innovation, building and scaling AI with confidence. Trusted by 9 of the 10 leading foundation model providers, CoreWeave serves as a force multiplier by combining superior infrastructure performance with deep technical expertise to accelerate human discovery. Established in 2017, CoreWeave completed its public listing on Nasdaq (CRWV) in March 2025.

Latest DSP integration expands buyer access to OptimizeRx point of care inventory through existing programmatic workflows

 | Source:

OptimizeRx Corporation

WALTHAM, Mass., Oct. 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- OptimizeRx Corp. (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: OPRX), a healthcare technology company helping life sciences companies reach and engage healthcare professionals (HCPs) and patients at critical decision points, today announced a new partnership with PulsePoint, an award-winning programmatic platform advancing omnichannel healthcare marketing, that will make OptimizeRx’s authenticated electronic health record (EHR) and e-prescribing inventory available to PulsePoint clients.

The integration builds on both companies’ efforts to make HCP media more connected. OptimizeRx is expanding programmatic access to point of care inventory that historically was only purchased through direct or specialized channels, while PulsePoint brings that inventory and 250,000 incremental NPIs into its platform designed to coordinate HCP media activation, optimization, and reporting. Together, the companies are making point of care easier to incorporate into the broader media plan rather than managing it as a separate buy.

Reducing Fragmentation Across the HCP Media Plan

The partnership helps close a longstanding gap in omnichannel HCP marketing. Digital HCP media can build awareness and consideration over time. The EHR adds a lower-funnel layer closer to prescribing, delivering relevant information within the clinical workflow. Yet EHR media has historically been planned and purchased separately from other digital channels. By bringing OptimizeRx inventory into PulsePoint, marketers can more easily extend broader HCP campaigns into EHR and e-prescribing workflows within a connected programmatic strategy.

“Omnichannel gets harder when high-value channels live in separate buying environments,” said Stephen Silvestro, CEO of OptimizeRx. “Our work with PulsePoint removes a layer of fragmentation, making it easier for brands and agencies to put point of care to work alongside the rest of their media investments.”

“OptimizeRx extends the scale of in-workflow EHR engagement we can offer clients to fuel their comprehensive omnichannel HCP strategies,” said Keith Matt, Group Vice President of Sales at PulsePoint. “Paired with our broader EHR footprint and real-time activation, optimization, and reporting, clients get more reach, more control, and clearer visibility across every campaign.”

Extending Programmatic Reach at the Point of Care

PulsePoint is among the first DSPs to integrate OptimizeRx’s authenticated EHR inventory since OptimizeRx opened its network to programmatic buying in June 2026. The integration will give PulsePoint clients access to incremental NPIs through OptimizeRx’s point of care network and bring PulsePoint’s programmatic EHR reach to over 1 million NPIs. OptimizeRx’s authenticated EHR inventory is expected to be available to advertisers using PulsePoint in November 2026.

About OptimizeRx

Prodeje iPhone 18 Pro vzrostly hlavně díky Číně

Original source text
Global sales of Apple's iPhone ‌18 Pro series in the first three weeks after launch were 3.1% higher than for the iPhone 17 Pro series over ​the same period a year ago, according to ​Counterpoint Research.

The smartphones performed well in markets such ⁠as China and India but more modestly elsewhere, ​Counterpoint said, pointing to a mixed start.

Sales in China rose ​29% from a year earlier, the strongest growth of any market, as early stock of the iPhone 18 Pro series was higher ​than for last year's 17 Pro phones and ​price increases on rival flagship Android models from Chinese Android makers boosted ‌demand.

Excluding ⁠China, global sales growth would have been far weaker, according to the research firm.

Sales in the United States and Japan fell 4% and 27% respectively from a ​year earlier with ​the new ⁠models more expensive than their predecessors.

Counterpoint said US consumers saw few meaningful improvements in ​features or design over previous models to ​justify ⁠the price. In Japan, demand shrank as exchange rates amplified the price increases.

The iPhone 18 Pro Max accounted for ⁠56% of ​sales within the iPhone 18 ​Pro series, a slight decrease from 57% last year.

Amazon kvůli paměťovým čipům očekává ztrátu 612 milionů USD

Panos Panay, head of Amazon's Devices and Services team CHARLY TRIBALLEAU/AFP via Getty Images Amazon launched a flurry of new consumer devices this month. Behind the scenes, rising memory costs are adding pressure to its already money-losing hardware business.

An internal planning document obtained by Business Insider shows Amazon forecasting a $612 million gross loss this year for its first-party devices business, compared with a leadership target of a $438 million loss.

The document said rising memory costs were "putting pressure" on the business's profitability, forcing "difficult trade-offs" among sales volumes, average selling prices, and gross profit.

The projected $612 million loss was at the gross profit level, meaning it did not account for all operating expenses, such as R&D, sales and marketing, and administrative costs.

The figures offer a rare glimpse into the pressure on Amazon's hardware business as it absorbs rising component costs. Other tech hardware companies, including industry leader Apple, face similar pressure from surging memory chip prices.

An Amazon spokesperson declined to comment.

A new wave of AI devicesDespite the pressure, Amazon continues to expand its consumer hardware lineup. Even if the company loses money on device sales, it can make money in other ways, such as subscription services, as more customers use its gadgets.

In October alone, the company introduced new Kindles, Alexa-powered tablets, Ring smart locks, and AI wearables under its Bee brand. The August planning document identified Bee and new smart glasses as strategic products still in an investment phase.

Amazon has historically used low-cost hardware to pull customers into a broader ecosystem of shopping and digital content. Rising component costs could make that strategy more expensive, forcing the company to raise prices.

The clearest shift is in Amazon's tablets. Earlier this month, the company phased out Fire tablets after 15 years and replaced the budget-friendly lineup with pricier Alexa Tablets powered by Alexa+. The new devices cost between $229.99 and $499.99, a notable increase from previous generations.

Not just AmazonThe planning document was prepared in August, the same month Amazon raised prices on products including Echo speakers, Kindle e-readers, and Fire TV devices.

The pressure extends beyond Amazon. Apple has raised prices on some Macs and iPads, while Microsoft and Sony have increased console prices. Dell, HP, and Lenovo also face higher memory costs.

The AI boom is helping drive the squeeze. Huge data center investments have increased demand for memory chips, while manufacturers have devoted more capacity to high-bandwidth memory used in AI servers. That has tightened supplies and raised prices for components used across consumer electronics.

Amazon is experiencing both sides of the boom. It expects roughly $220 billion in capital expenditures this year, largely to expand AWS data centers for AI demand, while higher component costs squeeze its consumer hardware business.

The rising cost of Alexa+The August planning materials show Amazon reassessing both Alexa+ revenue and operating costs. They called for updated forecasts, expansion through enterprise sales and advertising, and more detailed AWS cost modeling.

Amazon is now confronting the cost of operating Alexa+ at scale. Business Insider reported in July that internal forecasts put Alexa+'s AWS cloud costs at roughly $1.7 billion in 2026, nearly triple the prior year's figure. Amazon was working to lower those costs by relying less on Anthropic's AI models and routing more requests to its own, cheaper systems.

A separate project called Moonraker, intended to give Alexa more advanced AI-agent capabilities, was projected to require more than $100 million in GPU spending this year. Amazon internally considered delaying or scaling back the initiative as one option for easing cost pressure, Business Insider previously reported.
