New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - July 21, 2026) - Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities law firm, is investigating potential claims against Badger Meter, Inc. ("Badger Meter" or the "Company") (NYSE: BMI) and reminds investors of the August 3, 2026 deadline to seek the role of lead plaintiff in a federal securities class action that has been filed against the Company.

Faruqi & Faruqi is a leading national securities law firm with offices in New York, Pennsylvania, California and Georgia. The firm has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors since its founding in 1995. See www.faruqilaw.com.

As detailed below, the complaint alleges that the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by making false and/or misleading statements and/or failing to disclose that Badger Meter's strong financial results reflected "ongoing favorable industry trends," "secular growth drivers," and "solid operating execution." They likewise touted "strong" demand and said they were seeing "robust order pacing and a strong bid pipeline that positions us well for continued sales and earnings growth," and that Badger Meter possessed a "long runway" for growth.

The court-appointed lead plaintiff is the investor with the largest financial interest in the relief sought by the class who is adequate and typical of class members who directs and oversees the litigation on behalf of the putative class. Any member of the putative class may move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member. Your ability to share in any recovery is not affected by the decision to serve as a lead plaintiff or not.

Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP also encourages anyone with information regarding Badger Meter's conduct to contact the firm, including whistleblowers, former employees, shareholders and others.

To learn more about the Badger Meter class action, go to www.faruqilaw.com/BMI or call Faruqi & Faruqi partner Josh Wilson directly at 877-247-4292 or 212-983-9330 (Ext. 1310).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) for Investors Regarding the Badger Meter Securities Class Action Lawsuit:

What is the Badger Meter securities fraud lawsuit about?

The Badger Meter securities fraud lawsuit is a federal securities class action alleging that Badger Meter, Inc. (NYSE: BMI) and its executives made false and misleading statements to investors by touting "strong" demand, a "robust" order pipeline, and a "long runway" for growth while concealing that the Company's financial results were not sustainable. As the truth emerged through a series of disclosures — including disappointing Q2 2025 results and a sequential sales decline forecast on July 22, 2025, missed revenue expectations and a 6% sequential decline in utility water sales on January 28, 2026, and Q1 2026 earnings that missed consensus estimates by $0.26 per share with revenue missing by $28.58 million on April 17, 2026 — BMI's stock price dropped sharply, causing significant losses for investors.

Who may be eligible to participate in the Badger Meter class action lawsuit?

Investors who purchased or acquired Badger Meter (BMI) stock between April 18, 2024 and April 16, 2026 — the Class Period — and suffered financial losses may be eligible to participate in the Badger Meter securities class action. Participation as a class member does not require taking any affirmative legal action; eligible investors may recover losses simply by remaining members of the class. Whistleblowers, former Badger Meter employees, and others with relevant information about the Company's conduct are also encouraged to come forward.

What is a lead plaintiff, and how can I seek appointment in the Badger Meter lawsuit?

A lead plaintiff in the Badger Meter class action is a court-appointed investor — typically the one with the largest financial interest in the case — who directs and oversees the litigation on behalf of all class members. Any Badger Meter investor who purchased BMI stock during the Class Period may move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice. The deadline to seek lead plaintiff appointment is August 3, 2026. Importantly, choosing not to seek the lead plaintiff role does not affect an investor's ability to share in any recovery obtained for the class.

What should investors do if they purchased Badger Meter stock during the Class Period?

Investors who purchased Badger Meter (BMI) stock between April 18, 2024 and April 16, 2026 and suffered losses should contact Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP immediately to discuss their legal rights. The deadline to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the Badger Meter securities class action is August 3, 2026.

Key Takeaways EV-to-EBITDA offers a fuller view of valuation by accounting for debt, unlike traditional P/E ratios.CLDT, PARR, ARCO, CAL and FUL are screened as value stocks with low EV-to-EBITDA ratios.Each stock meets strict criteria, including valuation, trading volume, price, growth, and Value Score. The price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio is widely regarded as a yardstick for assessing a stock’s fair value. It is commonly used by investors to identify attractively priced stocks. However, despite its popularity, this valuation metric has notable shortcomings.

While P/E remains the most widely used equity valuation ratio, a more comprehensive metric called EV-to-EBITDA often provides a more accurate assessment of a company’s value. Frequently considered a better alternative to P/E, this ratio delivers a clearer view of a firm’s valuation and earnings-generating potential.

Chatham Lodging Trust (CLDT - Free Report) , Par Pacific Holdings, Inc. (PARR - Free Report) , Arcos Dorados Holdings Inc. (ARCO - Free Report) , Caleres, Inc. (CAL - Free Report) and H.B. Fuller Company (FUL - Free Report) are some stocks with attractive EV-to-EBITDA ratios.

EV-to-EBITDA Is a Better Approach, Here’s WhyEV-to-EBITDA is essentially the enterprise value (EV) of a stock divided by its earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA). EV is the sum of a company’s market capitalization, its debt and preferred stock minus cash and cash equivalents. EBITDA, the other component of the multiple, gives a better idea of a company’s profitability as it removes the impact of non-cash expenses like depreciation and amortization that reduce net earnings. It is also often used as a proxy for cash flows.

Just like P/E, the lower the EV-to-EBITDA ratio, the more attractive it is. A low EV-to-EBITDA ratio could signal that a stock is potentially undervalued. EV-to-EBITDA takes into account the debt on a company’s balance sheet, which the P/E ratio does not. For this reason, EV-to-EBITDA is generally used to value potential acquisition targets as it shows the amount of debt the acquirer has to assume. Stocks boasting a low EV-to-EBITDA multiple could be seen as attractive takeover candidates.

P/E can’t be used to value a loss-making firm. A firm’s earnings are also subject to accounting estimates and management manipulation. In contrast, EV-to-EBITDA is harder to manipulate and can be used to value companies that have negative net earnings but are positive on the EBITDA front. EV-to-EBITDA is also a useful tool in measuring the value of firms that are highly leveraged and have a high degree of depreciation. It can also be used to compare companies with different levels of debt.

But EV-to-EBITDA has its shortcomings, too. The ratio varies across industries (a high-growth industry typically has a higher multiple and vice versa). It is usually not appropriate when comparing stocks in different industries, given their diverse capital requirements.

A strategy solely based on EV-to-EBITDA might not yield the desired results. However, you can club it with the other major ratios in your stock-investing toolbox, such as price-to-book (P/B), P/E and price-to-sales (P/S) to screen value stocks.

Screening CriteriaHere are the parameters to screen for value stocks:

EV-to-EBITDA 12 Months-Most Recent less than X-Industry Median: A lower EV-to-EBITDA ratio represents a cheaper valuation.

P/E using (F1) less than X-Industry Median: This metric screens stocks that are trading at a discount to their peers.

P/B less than X-Industry Median: A lower P/B compared with the industry average implies that the stock is undervalued.

P/S less than X-Industry Median: The lower the P/S ratio, the more attractive the stock is, as investors will have to pay a smaller price for the same amount of sales generated by the company.

Estimated One-Year EPS Growth F(1)/F(0) greater than or equal to X-Industry Median: This parameter will help in screening stocks that have growth rates higher than the industry median.

Average 20-day Volume greater than or equal to 100,000: The addition of this metric ensures that shares can be traded easily.

Current Price greater than or equal to $5: This parameter will help in screening stocks that are trading at a minimum price of $5 or higher.

Zacks Rank less than or equal to 2: It is a fundamental truth that stocks with a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) or 2 (Buy) have always managed to beat adversities and outperform the market.

Value Score of less than or equal to B: Our research shows that stocks with a Value Score of A or B, when combined with a Zacks Rank #1 or 2, offer the best upside potential.

Here are our five picks out of the 12 stocks that passed the screen:

Chatham Lodging Trust is a lodging real estate investment trust that invests in premium-branded upscale extended-stay and select-service hotels. This Zacks Rank #1 company has a Value Score of A.

The complaint alleges that throughout the relevant period, Planet Fitness misrepresented the success of its marketing campaign to focus on "fitness-minded" members. For instance, Planet Fitness told investors that it "continue[d] to lean into our 'we are all strong on this Planet' campaign." Planet Fitness also stated that "[b]ecause this campaign resonated so strongly last year, we extended it into 2026."

In truth, Planet Fitness's marketing campaign alienated fitness beginners and more casual gym-goers, which traditionally had been the company's focus and would be forced to restructure its marketing strategy. This caused the company to halt planned increases which its sales projections were premised on.

Why did Planet Fitness's Stock Drop?

On May 7, 2026, Planet Fitness released its Q1 2026 financial results. The company announced disappointing membership growth and cut 2026 revenue growth guidance from approximately 9% to about 7% and adjusted EBITDA growth guidance from roughly 10% to approximately 6%. During the same-day earnings call, the company stated that its marketing "may have pivoted too far" as the company "shift[ed] from [its] lighthearted approachable tone" to one that "increased penetration with the fitness-minded." As such it announced that, "we are pausing the planned national Black Card price increase pending a broader pricing review."

This news caused the price of Planet Fitness stock to decline $19.95 per share, or 31%, from a closing price of $63.96 per share on May 6, 2026, to $44.01 per share on May 7, 2026.

"Equifax delivered a strong second quarter performance executing on our EFX2028 Strategic Priorities with reported revenue of $1.700 billion, up 11% on a reported basis, with 10% local currency revenue growth enabled by a 16% new product Vitality Index, above our 10% long-term goal, with double digit Vitality across all business units. Diversified Markets local currency revenue growth of 6% reflects strong revenue growth in Workforce Solutions and USIS. U.S. Mortgage revenue grew 25% and in line with our expectations despite higher mortgage rates throughout the second quarter.

We are doubling our AI-driven cost reduction goal set earlier in the year to $150 million from 2026 to 2028, reflecting the accelerating momentum deploying AI across EFX to drive speed, accuracy, and productivity.

Equifax signed a definitive agreement to acquire Círculo de Crédito, the fastest growing credit bureau in Mexico, for an enterprise value of $750 million. The acquisition fits perfectly in our balanced capital allocation framework, with our focus on highly accretive bolt-on acquisitions while continuing significant ongoing return of capital to shareholders and maintaining our strong investment grade balance sheet. Equifax returned $366 million of cash to shareholders in the quarter, including repurchasing 1.8 million shares, or about 1% of shares outstanding, for $300 million and paying $66 million in quarterly dividends," said Mark W. Begor, Equifax Chief Executive Officer. 

"Equifax is fundamentally a different company on how we go to market from Technology to Data & Analytics, EFX.AI capabilities, product focus, and AI-driven Operations all leveraging our Cloud technology investment and patented EFX.AI products and D&A capabilities. Equifax's scale proprietary data is the foundation of our AI data moat and a big competitive advantage, and we are expanding our capabilities to leverage our unique, non-public data assets with EFX.AI and our Agentic AI capabilities to rapidly deliver higher-performing scores, models, and multi-market products to help our customers grow.

Our strong second quarter results reflect the resiliency of the broad-based Equifax business model in an increasingly uncertain economy. We are energized about the New Equifax and we expect to deliver higher growth, margins, and accelerating free cash flow, and returning cash to shareholders in the future."

Forward-Looking Statements

This release contains forward-looking statements and forward-looking information. These statements can be identified by expressions of belief, expectation or intention, as well as statements that are not historical fact. These statements are based on certain factors and assumptions including with respect to foreign exchange rates, revenue growth, results of operations and financial performance, strategic initiatives, business plans, prospects and opportunities, the U.S. mortgage market, economic conditions and effective tax rates.

While Equifax believes these factors and assumptions to be reasonable based on information currently available, they may prove to be incorrect. Several factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. These factors relate to (i) actions taken by us, including, but not limited to, restructuring actions, strategic initiatives (such as our cloud technology transformation), capital investments and asset acquisitions or dispositions, as well as (ii) developments beyond our control, including, but not limited to, changes in the U.S. mortgage market environment and changes more generally in U.S. and worldwide economic conditions (including resulting from changes in interest rates and inflation levels, the evolving impact of tariffs and geopolitical conflicts) that materially impact consumer spending, home prices, investment values, consumer debt, unemployment rates and the demand for Equifax's products and services. Deteriorations in economic conditions or increases in interest rates could lead to a decline in demand for our products and services and negatively impact our business. It may also impact financial markets and corporate credit markets, which could adversely impact our access to financing or the terms of any financing.

Other risk factors relevant to our business include: (i) any compromise of Equifax, customer or consumer information due to security breaches and other disruptions to our information technology infrastructure; (ii) the failure to achieve and maintain key industry or technical certifications; (iii) the failure to realize the anticipated benefits of our cloud technology transformation strategy; (iv) operational disruptions and strain on our resources caused by our transition to cloud-based technologies; (v) our ability to meet customer requirements for high system availability and response time performance; (vi) effects on our business if we provide inaccurate or unreliable data to customers; (vii) our ability to maintain access to credit, employment, financial and other data from external sources; (viii) the impact of competition; (ix) our ability to maintain relationships with key customers and business partners; (x) our ability to successfully introduce new products, services and analytical capabilities; (xi) the impact on the demand for some of our products and services due to the availability of free or less expensive consumer information; (xii) our ability to comply with our obligations under settlement agreements arising out of a material cybersecurity incident in 2017; (xiii) potential adverse developments in new and pending legal proceedings, government investigations and regulatory enforcement actions; (xiv) changes in, and the effects of, laws, regulations and government policies governing our business, including oversight by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau in the U.S., the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority and Information Commissioner's Office in the U.K., and the Office of Australian Information Commission and the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission in Australia; (xv) the impact of privacy, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence or other data-related laws and regulations; (xvi) the economic, political and other risks associated with international sales and operations; (xvii) the impact on our reputation and business from our responsible business commitments and disclosures; (xviii) our ability to realize the anticipated strategic and financial benefits from our acquisitions, joint ventures and other alliances; (xix) any damage to our reputation due to our dependence on outsourcing certain portions of our operations; (xx) the termination or suspension of our government contracts; (xxi) the impact of infringement or misappropriation of intellectual property by us against third parties or by third parties against us; (xxii) an increase in our cost of borrowing and our ability to access the capital markets due to a credit rating downgrade; (xxiii) our ability to hire and retain key personnel; (xxiv) the impact of adverse changes in the financial markets and corresponding effects on our retirement and post-retirement pension plans; (xxv) the impact of health epidemics, pandemics and similar outbreaks on our business; and (xxvi) risks associated with our use of certain artificial intelligence and machine learning models and systems.

A summary of additional risks and uncertainties can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 including without limitation under the captions "Item 1. Business -- Governmental Regulation," "-- Forward-Looking Statements" and "Item 1A. Risk Factors" and in our other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Forward-looking statements are given only as at the date of this release and Equifax disclaims any obligation to update or revise the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

During the second quarter of 2026, we recorded acquisition-related amortization expense of certain acquired intangibles of $61.2 million ($48.9 million, net of tax). We calculate this financial measure by excluding the impact of acquisition-related amortization expense and including a benefit to reflect the significant cash income tax savings resulting from the income tax deductibility of amortization for certain acquired intangibles. The $12.3 million of tax is comprised of $16.3 million of tax expense, net of $4.0 million of a cash income tax benefit. During the second quarter of 2025, we recorded acquisition-related amortization expense of certain acquired intangibles of $62.5 million ($50.0 million, net of tax). The $12.5 million of tax is comprised of $16.6 million of tax expense, net of $4.1 million of a cash income tax benefit. See the Notes to this reconciliation for additional detail.

During the second quarter of 2025, we recorded pre-tax expenses of $0.4 million for an accrual for legal and regulatory matters related to the 2017 cybersecurity incident, an $0.8 million gain on sale of an equity investment, a $0.1 million foreign currency gain on certain intercompany loans, $6.1 million for acquisition-related costs other than acquisition amortization, a foreign currency loss of $1.3 million related to the impact of remeasuring the peso denominated monetary assets and liabilities as a result of Argentina being a highly inflationary economy, and $4.6 million of restructuring charges for the realignment of resources and other costs.

Notes to Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to the Comparable GAAP Financial Measures

Diluted EPS attributable to Equifax is adjusted for the following items:

Acquisition-related amortization expense - During the second quarter of 2026 and 2025, we recorded acquisition-related amortization expense of certain acquired intangibles of $61.2 million ($48.9 million, net of tax) and $62.5 million ($50.0 million, net of tax), respectively. We calculate this financial measure by excluding the impact of acquisition-related amortization expense and including a benefit to reflect the material cash income tax savings resulting from the income tax deductibility of amortization for certain acquired intangibles. These financial measures are not prepared in conformity with GAAP. Management believes excluding the impact of amortization expense is useful because excluding acquisition-related amortization, and other items that are not comparable, allows investors to evaluate our performance for different periods on a more comparable basis. Certain acquired intangibles result in material cash income tax savings which are not reflected in earnings. Management believes that including a benefit to reflect the cash income tax savings is useful as it allows investors to better value Equifax. Management makes these adjustments to earnings when measuring profitability, evaluating performance trends, setting performance objectives and calculating our return on invested capital.

Accrual for legal and regulatory matters related to the 2017 cybersecurity incident - Accrual for legal and regulatory matters related to the 2017 cybersecurity incident includes legal fees to respond to subsequent litigation and government investigations for both periods presented. During the second quarter of 2026 and 2025, we recorded an accrual for legal and regulatory matters related to the 2017 cybersecurity incident of $0.4 million. Management believes excluding these charges is useful as it allows investors to evaluate our performance for different periods on a more comparable basis. Management makes these adjustments to net income when measuring profitability, evaluating performance trends, setting performance objectives and calculating our return on invested capital. This is consistent with how management reviews and assesses Equifax's historical performance and is useful when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods.

Gain on sale of equity investment - During the second quarter of 2025 we recorded a gain on sale of an equity investment of $0.8 million ($0.4 million, net of tax). Management believes excluding this charge from certain financial results provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2025, since the non-operating gain is not comparable among the periods. This is consistent with how our management reviews and assesses Equifax's historical performance and is useful when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods.

Foreign currency impact of certain intercompany loans - During the second quarter of 2025, we recorded a gain of $0.1 million related to foreign currency impact of certain intercompany loans. Management believes excluding this charge is useful as it allows investors to evaluate our performance for different periods on a more comparable basis. This is consistent with how management reviews and assesses Equifax's historical performance and is useful when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods.

Acquisition-related costs other than acquisition amortization - During the second quarter of 2026 and 2025, we recorded $7.0 million ($4.1 million, net of tax) and $6.1 million ($4.4 million, net of tax), respectively, for acquisition-related costs other than acquisition amortization. These costs primarily related to transaction and integration costs resulting from recent acquisitions and were recorded in operating income. Management believes excluding this charge from certain financial results provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our financial results, since a charge of such an amount is not comparable among the periods. This is consistent with how our management reviews and assesses Equifax's historical performance and is useful when planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods.

Income tax effects of stock awards that are recognized upon vesting or settlement - During the second quarter of 2025, we recorded a tax benefit of $0.7 million related to the tax effects of deductions for stock compensation in excess of amounts recorded for compensation costs. Management believes excluding this tax effect from financial results provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2025 because these amounts are non-operating and relate to income tax benefits or deficiencies for stock awards recognized when tax amounts differ from recognized stock compensation cost. This is consistent with how management reviews and assesses Equifax's historical performance and is useful when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods.

Argentina highly inflationary foreign currency adjustment - Argentina experienced multiple periods of increasing inflation rates, devaluation of the peso, and increasing borrowing rates. As such, Argentina was deemed a highly inflationary economy by accounting policymakers. We recorded a foreign currency loss of $0.6 million and $1.3 million during the second quarter of 2026 and 2025, respectively, as a result of remeasuring the peso denominated monetary assets and liabilities due to Argentina being highly inflationary. Management believes excluding this charge is useful as it allows investors to evaluate our performance for different periods on a more comparable basis. This is consistent with how management reviews and assesses Equifax's historical performance and is useful when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods.

Charge related to the realignment of resources and other costs - During the second quarter of 2025, we recorded $4.6 million ($3.5 million, net of tax) of restructuring charges related to contract terminations, which relate to our efforts to complete our cloud technology transformation. Management believes excluding these charges from certain financial results provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our financial results since a charge of such an amount is not comparable among the periods. This is consistent with how our management reviews and assesses Equifax's historical performance and is useful when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods.

Antitrust litigation costs - Antitrust litigation costs include legal fees to respond to antitrust litigation pertaining to our Workforce Solutions business unit. During the second quarter of 2026, we recorded costs related to antitrust litigation pertaining to our Workforce Solutions business unit in the amount of $0.6 million ($0.5 million, net of tax). Management believes excluding these charges is useful as it allows investors to evaluate our performance for different periods on a more comparable basis, as these legal matters are outside of the normal course of Equifax's continuing business operations. Management makes these adjustments to net income when measuring profitability, evaluating performance trends, setting performance objectives and calculating our return on invested capital. This is consistent with how management reviews and assesses Equifax's historical performance and is useful when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods.

Accrual for a legal settlement -  During the second quarter of 2026, we recorded an accrual of $100.0 million, which net of expected insurance proceeds of $60.0 million, resulted in a charge of $40.0 million ($30.2 million, net of tax) for a legal settlement associated with the resolution of claims related to a previously-disclosed coding issue, which represents our best estimate of the liability related to settlement of this matter. Management believes excluding this charge from certain financial results provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2026, because a charge of such an amount is not comparable among the periods. This is consistent with how our management reviews and assesses Equifax's historical performance and is useful when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods.

Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA margin - Management defines adjusted EBITDA as consolidated net income attributable to Equifax plus net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and also excludes certain one-time items. Management believes the use of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin allows investors to evaluate our performance for different periods on a more comparable basis.

CompaniesJuly 21 (Reuters) - Mobileye Global (MBLY.O), opens new tab will supply Stellantis with cloud-driven advanced driver-assistance technology, the Israeli company ​said on Tuesday, as automakers race to meet rising ‌demand for connected safety systems.

The ADAS hardware maker's shares were up about 6% in premarket trading.

The companies said select models from ​Stellantis, the parent of Jeep and Chrysler, will integrate ​Mobileye's Road Experience Management technology from 2027, using ⁠crowdsourced road data to improve lane keeping and hands-free ​driving.

ADAS has become one of the auto industry's fastest-growing technologies ​as carmakers race to offer increasingly sophisticated safety and convenience features and generate higher-margin software revenue.

The technology is widely seen as a ​step toward fully autonomous driving, though regulators still require ​drivers to remain attentive when using hands-free systems.

The first applications are expected ‌in ⁠select U.S. Stellantis models next year, with wider rollout subject to vehicle platform and configuration.

Stellantis will be the fifth of the world's 10 largest automakers to contribute data to ​Mobileye's REM ​platform, which covers ⁠more than 95% of public roads in the United States and Europe. More than ​8 million vehicles logged 34 billion miles ​of data ⁠on the platform last year, Mobileye said.

Jerusalem-based Mobileye's system collects road data through front-facing cameras in EyeQ-equipped vehicles and combines ⁠it ​with cloud-based mapping intelligence. That allows ​vehicles to receive real-time updates on lane markings, road layouts and construction ​zones.

Největší americká automobilka General Motors ve druhém čtvrtletí zvýšila provozní zisk meziročně o 30 procent na 3,9 miliardy dolarů (82,5 miliardy Kč) a znovu zlepšila i celoroční výhled. Oznámila to dnes ve své výsledkové zprávě. Výsledku pomohl především prodej ziskových sportovně-užitkových vozů (SUV) a nákladních automobilů. Tržby vzrostly o dvě procenta na 48 miliard dolarů.

Detroitská automobilka výrazně překonala odhady analytiků, kteří podle dat společnosti LSEG očekávali čtvrtletní zisk před započtením úroků a daní 3,2 dolaru na akcii, zatímco firma oznámila zisk 3,57 USD na akcii. Podařilo se jí to navzdory nestabilní ekonomické situaci, kdy se zákazníci ve druhém čtvrtletí potýkali s vyššími cenami pohonných hmot, přetrvávající inflací a pomalejším růstem zaměstnanosti.

Podobně jako v prvním čtvrtletí automobilka zvýšila celoroční výhled zisku opět o 500 milionů dolarů, aktuálně na rozmezí 14 až 16 miliard dolarů. Firma očekává, že půl miliardy dolarů získá zpět za cla zavedená prezidentem Donaldem Trumpem, která v únoru zrušil americký nejvyšší soud.

Generální ředitelka GM Mary Barraová uvedla, že očekává pokračování pozitivního trendu i v příštím roce. "Očekáváme, že tyto trendy budou i nadále posilovat naše výsledky až do roku 2027 a dále, protože disponujeme řadou faktorů podporujících růst marží a celkový růst, přičemž zachováváme kapitálovou disciplínu," napsala Barraová v dopise akcionářům.
