3 Analyst-Backed Stocks the Market Is Getting Totally WrongOld Republic International NYSE: ORI reported lower second-quarter operating earnings as weaker specialty insurance underwriting results offset a stronger performance in its title insurance segment, management said on the company’s earnings call.
President and CEO Craig Smiddy said consolidated pre-tax operating income was $238 million in the second quarter of 2026, down from $268 million in the prior-year period. The consolidated combined ratio was 95.3%, compared with 93.6% a year earlier. The company’s annualized operating return on beginning equity was 12.1%, while book value per share, including dividends, increased 7.2% during the first six months of the year.

Chief Financial Officer Frank Sodaro said net operating income was $186 million, or $0.76 per share, compared with $209 million, or $0.83 per share, in the second quarter of 2025.
Specialty Insurance Results Weaken on Reserve Strengthening Old Republic’s specialty insurance segment produced $199 million of pre-tax operating income, down from $254 million a year earlier. Net premiums earned increased 2.3% from the second quarter of 2025, while net premiums written rose 1.6% after excluding what Smiddy described as “noise” related to an auto warranty business written in the company’s auto warranty operating company.
The specialty insurance combined ratio rose to 95.5% from 90.7% a year earlier. Smiddy said the segment’s loss ratio was 65.9%, including 0.3 percentage points of unfavorable prior-year loss reserve development. That compared with a 62.5% loss ratio in the prior-year quarter, which included 2.9 percentage points of favorable development.
Sodaro said the company’s runoff transactional risk business had “poor claims experience,” which led to $40 million of reserve strengthening in the quarter. He noted that Old Republic placed the business into runoff in 2024. Outside of that runoff business, Sodaro said property and commercial auto had significant favorable reserve development, workers’ compensation had favorable development that was “considerably lower” than the prior year, and general liability had a moderate level of unfavorable development.
Smiddy said the specialty insurance expense ratio was 29.6%, up from 28.2% a year earlier, with most of the increase tied to investments in new specialty operating companies, technology modernization, data analytics and artificial intelligence.
Commercial Auto Rates Rise, Workers’ Compensation Premiums Decline In commercial auto, net premiums written rose 3.6% in the quarter, and the loss ratio was 69.4%, about 1 percentage point better than a year earlier. Smiddy said the improvement reflected a higher level of favorable prior-year reserve development, partially offset by a more conservative current accident-year loss ratio.
Rate increases in commercial auto were in the high teens and were higher than in the first quarter, Smiddy said, adding that the increases were greater than current loss trends the company is observing. He also said commercial auto retention ratios improved as competitors began implementing higher rate increases in response to higher loss trends.
Workers’ compensation net premiums written fell 8.4% in the quarter. The loss ratio was 60.6%, compared with 48.5% in the second quarter of 2025, with most of the change tied to a larger amount of favorable prior-year reserve development in the year-ago quarter. Smiddy said Old Republic held workers’ compensation rates flat, severity loss trends remained consistent and frequency loss trends continued to decline.
Smiddy said the company is seeing “some top-line pressure stemming from generally a competitive marketplace” but remains focused on risk-adequate pricing. In response to an analyst question about property pricing, he said catastrophe-exposed property is not a large part of Old Republic’s portfolio and that total property rates were down about 7.5% for the company.
Title Insurance Revenue and Profitability Improve Old Republic’s title insurance segment reported premium and fee revenue of $773 million, up 11% from the second quarter of 2025, according to Carolyn Monroe, president and CEO of Old Republic National Title Insurance Group. Smiddy said title premiums and fees increased 10%, while the segment generated $56 million of pre-tax operating income, up from $24 million a year earlier.
Monroe said residential transactions improved after a slow seasonal start, while commercial activity remained strong. Premiums produced in direct title operations increased 6%, while agency-produced premiums rose 12% and represented 78% of revenue, up from 77% in the prior-year quarter.
Commercial premiums increased and accounted for 25% of premiums earned, compared with 23% a year earlier. Monroe said the company saw “a wide mix of transactions across many segments of the commercial sector.” Asked about data center and infrastructure projects, she said data centers are large transactions that generally involve multiple title companies, and that Old Republic is also seeing activity in industrial projects and hospitality.
The title segment’s combined ratio improved to 95.1% from 99% a year earlier. Monroe said the expense ratio improved by 4 percentage points to 92.1%, with about half of the improvement tied to a one-time litigation settlement expense in the second quarter of 2025. The rest reflected operational efficiency, expense management and higher transaction volumes, partly offset by higher agent commissions due to a greater mix of agency business.
Monroe said Old Republic remains focused on improving operational efficiency and expanding margins, including through its partnership with Qualia and the rollout of a new operating system. Implementation began earlier this year and is expected to continue through the end of next year.
Investment Income, Buybacks and ECM Acquisition Sodaro said net investment income increased just over 6% in the quarter, primarily due to a larger investment base from operating results and a debt issuance completed in May. The average rate on corporate bonds acquired during the quarter was 4.9%, compared with an average yield of about 4.2% on bonds rolling off. The bond portfolio’s book yield ended the quarter at 4.8%, slightly higher than at year-end.
Book value per share was $25.33 at quarter-end. During the quarter, Old Republic paid nearly $77 million in dividends and repurchased $61 million of shares, leaving about $640 million remaining under its current repurchase program.
Smiddy said the company continues to view share repurchases as a way to return capital to shareholders but will remain opportunistic and mindful of the impact on book value per share. He said Old Republic could also consider a special dividend near year-end if it believes it has excess capital.
Management also discussed the company’s acquisition of ECM. Sodaro said Old Republic expects to report a bargain purchase gain on the acquisition next quarter and expects ECM’s results to be accretive to earnings and book value this year. ECM reported direct premiums written of just under $220 million in 2025 and ended that year with estimated GAAP equity of $145 million.
Smiddy said ECM has the same combined ratio targets as Old Republic’s other companies, between 90% and 95% over time, and that ECM produced “very strong” combined ratios in the first two quarters of 2026. He said Old Republic has eliminated ECM’s external quota share effective July 1 and is working to include ECM in its corporate treaties.
In closing, Smiddy said the company feels good about its prospects for the third and fourth quarters, citing “very solid” fundamentals in specialty insurance and brighter prospects in title insurance.

3 Dividend Leaders Set for Strong Growth in 2025Packaging Corporation of America NYSE: PKG reported lower adjusted earnings for the second quarter of 2026 compared with the prior year, even as sales and EBITDA increased, with management citing strong corrugated demand, higher freight costs and contributions from the recently acquired Greif containerboard business.
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Mark Kowlzan said the company reported second-quarter net income of $192 million, or $2.15 per share. Excluding special items, net income was $210 million, or $2.35 per share, compared with $224 million, or $2.48 per share, in the second quarter of 2025. Net sales rose to $2.5 billion from $2.2 billion a year earlier, while total company EBITDA excluding special items increased to $486 million from $451 million.
Get PKG alerts:
Packaging Corporation of America: Buy The DipKowlzan said special items totaled $0.20 per share and were primarily related to facility closure costs and write-offs, Wallula Mill restructuring charges, and expenses tied to the acquisition and integration of the Greif containerboard business.
Excluding special items, earnings declined by $0.13 per share from the year-ago quarter. Kowlzan said legacy business earnings were down $0.27 per share, partly offset by $0.14 per share of earnings from the acquired Greif business. The legacy decline was driven by several cost pressures, including higher freight, corporate and other expenses, lower price and mix in packaging, higher labor and operating costs, and higher fiber costs. Those headwinds were partly offset by higher production and sales volumes in packaging and paper, lower maintenance outage expense, and improved paper pricing and mix.
Packaging Corporation of America: A Total Package to Buy and Hold“We exceeded our guidance of $2.33 on the strength of our corrugated volumes, which helped drive cost favorability in areas that we could control and offset higher than forecast costs for freight, recycled fiber, and employee benefits,” Kowlzan said. He added that Greif’s earnings contribution also exceeded expectations.
Packaging Demand Remains Strong In the packaging segment, EBITDA excluding special items was $489 million on sales of $2.3 billion, resulting in a margin of 21.1%. That compared with EBITDA of $453 million on sales of $2 billion, or a 22.6% margin, in the second quarter of 2025.
The company produced 1.415 million tons of containerboard during the quarter. Legacy mills produced 1.209 million tons, roughly even with the first quarter and 14,000 tons above the prior-year period. Acquired mills produced 206,000 tons, which Kowlzan said significantly exceeded their production in any quarter since the acquisition.
President Thomas Hassfurther said corrugated operations “turned in yet another very strong quarter.” Shipments were up more than 24% in total and per day versus last year, with the legacy business up 4.1% and achieving an all-time record for total quarterly shipments. Hassfurther said demand was very strong across the company’s customer base, with particular strength in e-commerce related to Amazon Prime Day and related customers.
Hassfurther said domestic containerboard and corrugated products prices and mix were $0.11 per share below the second quarter of 2025 but $0.04 per share above the first quarter of 2026. He said the company began realizing the first announced price increase in June, expects most of that increase to roll in during July, and expects the second increase to begin in August with realization split between the third and fourth quarters.
The company reduced export containerboard sales during the quarter to build inventory for its corrugated plants. Export volume was 30,000 tons below the first quarter and 22,000 tons below the second quarter of 2025. Hassfurther said the company was able to meaningfully increase inventories in early July and described the current market environment in one word during the question-and-answer session: “tight.”
Greif Integration Exceeds Expectations Management said the acquired Greif business contributed $0.14 per share to earnings in the quarter, above expectations. Chief Financial Officer Kent Pflederer said $0.04 of that contribution came from a depreciation benefit tied to measurement-period adjustments to the valuation of fixed assets on the opening balance sheet. Excluding that benefit, Pflederer said the outperformance was driven largely by higher volumes and strong operational performance.
Hassfurther said PCA now views the acquired business as fully integrated and is operating it as one unit with the legacy business. Pflederer said the transition services agreement with Greif will run through the end of the year as the company brings remaining corrugated plants and one mill-related system onto PCA systems. He said three more plants are expected to transition in the third quarter and the final facilities in the fourth quarter.
Pflederer said PCA is on track, and possibly ahead, on Greif-related synergies. He cited mill production improvements and better reliability, as well as integration benefits that are beginning to show in the numbers. He said the company is “probably” on track to exceed a $30 million run rate by year-end.
Paper Segment Posts Higher Margins The paper segment reported EBITDA excluding special items of $39 million on sales of $157 million, for a 24.9% margin. That compared with EBITDA of $30 million on sales of $146 million, or a 20.8% margin, in the second quarter of 2025.
Kowlzan said paper sales volume was about 3% below the first quarter but about 6% above the second quarter of 2025. Prices and mix were up 2% from both the first quarter of 2026 and the prior-year quarter. He said the company continues to implement previously announced paper price increases and expects to benefit in the third quarter.
Costs, Outages and Capital Spending in Focus Pflederer said cash provided by operations was $376 million, and free cash flow was $170 million after $206 million of capital expenditures. Other cash uses included dividend payments of $111 million, cash tax payments of $78 million and net interest payments of $54 million. PCA did not repurchase shares during the quarter.
The company continues to forecast 2026 capital expenditures of $840 million to $870 million and depreciation, depletion and amortization of about $710 million, excluding special items. Pflederer said outage expense was $0.34 per share in the second quarter and is now estimated at $0.30 in the third quarter and $0.63 in the fourth quarter, for a full-year total of $1.41 per share.
Kowlzan said operational performance in the quarter was mixed because of production interruptions from utility power outages across the mill system. In response to a question, Pflederer said the outages likely affected production by about 10,000 tons. Kowlzan said the disruptions reinforced the need for gas turbine projects at three key facilities, which he said should reduce or eliminate reliance on the grid at those mills.
Kowlzan said a gas turbine project at the Jackson Mill is in construction and is targeted to come online next year in coordination with Jackson’s annual outage. Projects at Riverville, Virginia, and DeRidder, Louisiana, are moving through environmental permitting, with Kowlzan indicating those units could come online in the first to middle part of 2028.
Third-Quarter Guidance Calls for Higher Earnings Looking ahead, Kowlzan said PCA expects continued strong packaging demand, increased corrugated products volume due to one additional shipping day, and higher containerboard and corrugated prices as price increases are implemented. He also said the company expects one more day of mill operation, lower production impact from packaging maintenance outages and better operating performance across its containerboard mill system.
In paper, PCA expects lower volume and higher prices due to maintenance at International Falls and continued price increase implementation. Freight costs are expected to remain around the elevated levels seen in May and June, while recycled fiber prices are continuing to rise. The company also expects higher chemical and purchased electricity prices, with wood fiber and natural gas relatively flat.
PCA guided for third-quarter earnings of $2.91 per share, excluding special items.

Beyond Biotech—3 Healthcare Stocks for Growth-Minded InvestorsBased on the quarter’s performance, Edwards raised its full-year 2026 sales growth outlook for the total company, TAVR and TMTT while reaffirming its adjusted EPS guidance. The company now expects total company sales growth of 10% to 11%, up from 9% to 11%. It expects total company sales of $6.6 billion to $6.9 billion at current exchange rates. Adjusted EPS guidance remains $2.95 to $3.05.
TAVR Sales Beat Expectations Edwards reported global TAVR sales of $1.3 billion in the second quarter, up 10.5% from the prior year. Zovighian said the performance was stronger than expected and benefited from sustained clinical momentum, data supporting more proactive management of severe aortic stenosis, and continued adoption of the company’s SAPIEN platform.
3 Healthcare Pathbreakers With Long-Term TailwindsHe said TAVR growth rates were similar in the U.S. and outside the U.S. Average selling prices were stable globally. Growth also benefited from the exit of a competitor in the second quarter of 2025 and long-term durability data for SAPIEN, according to management.
Edwards raised its full-year TAVR sales growth guidance to 8% to 9%, from 7% to 9%. The company now expects TAVR sales of $4.75 billion to $5 billion at current exchange rates.
Zovighian said recent clinical presentations at the New York Valves Conference included a seven-year subanalysis supporting SAPIEN valve performance and durability, as well as a five-year analysis from the EARLY TAVR trial that added to evidence for treating aortic stenosis earlier in the disease pathway. He also said the first patients have been treated with the updated SAPIEN X4-S platform.
TMTT Growth Driven by Multiple Products Edwards’ transcatheter mitral and tricuspid therapies generated second-quarter sales of $195.9 million, up 44.8% year over year. Zovighian said PASCAL, EVOQUE and SAPIEN M3 all exceeded expectations in the quarter.
The company raised its full-year TMTT sales guidance to $760 million to $780 million, from $740 million to $780 million. Zovighian said the portfolio supports Edwards’ target of reaching $2 billion in TMTT revenue in 2030.
Management said PASCAL adoption continues to increase, citing physician interest in its design and clinical outcomes. Edwards expects next-generation PASCAL technology with Capture Clarity for mitral and tricuspid patients in the U.S. and Europe to be approved in the fourth quarter. The company also expects results from the Class II TR trial to be presented at TCT and plans a U.S. launch of PASCAL for tricuspid patients in the fourth quarter.
EVOQUE continues to scale in the U.S. and Europe, with Edwards expanding into new centers, increasing utilization at existing centers and working to streamline patient screening. Daveen Chopra, corporate vice president with responsibility for TMTT, surgical and IHFM, said EVOQUE is the second-largest TMTT platform by revenue after PASCAL and is “growing very quickly.”
For SAPIEN M3, Zovighian said early experience has validated the need for mitral replacement options for patients not well suited for mitral repair or surgery. Edwards received CE Mark for SAPIEN M3 RESILIA and broadened its indication for SAPIEN M3 and SAPIEN M3 RESILIA to include patients with mitral annular calcification.
Surgical Sales Rise 5% In surgical products, second-quarter global sales were $284 million, up 5% from the prior year. Zovighian said growth was driven by continued adoption of RESILIA-based therapies, including INSPIRIS, MITRIS and KONECT.
He also highlighted 10-year data from the COMMENCE trial presented at the AATS conference, saying the results showed favorable freedom from structural valve deterioration and a low rate of reoperation related to structural valve deterioration. Edwards also received U.S. approval for ECLIPTIS, its surgical left atrial appendage technology, and plans a measured rollout later this year.
The company continues to expect mid-single-digit sales growth in surgical in 2026.
Margins, Tax Rate and Third-Quarter Outlook Mistras said adjusted gross profit margin was 77.6% in the second quarter, flat from a year earlier, as foreign exchange headwinds were offset by lower manufacturing expenses. Foreign exchange reduced gross margin by 70 basis points compared with the prior year. The company now expects gross margin to be at the lower end of its full-year 78% to 79% guidance.
Second-quarter SG&A expense was $561 million, or 32% of sales, compared with $502 million a year earlier. R&D expense was $279 million, or 16% of sales, compared with $276 million, or 18% of sales, in the prior-year period. Edwards continues to expect R&D to be approximately 17% of sales in 2026.
Adjusted operating margin was 30% in the second quarter. Mistras said Edwards continues to expect full-year operating margin at the high end of its original 28% to 29% guidance, representing approximately 150 basis points of constant-currency operating margin expansion.
The company now expects its 2026 effective tax rate, excluding special items, to be at the high end of its prior 16% to 19% range, due to Pillar Two tax impacts and changes to California law limiting the use of R&D credits. GAAP EPS for the quarter was $0.42, primarily affected by the California R&D tax credit impact.
For the third quarter, Edwards projected sales of $1.63 billion to $1.71 billion and adjusted EPS of $0.71 to $0.77. Mistras said underlying growth in the third quarter will be “artificially lower” than first-half performance because the company faces a higher comparison from 2025, when seasonality had an unusually low impact.
Management Discusses NCD, PROGRESS Trial and Long-Term Growth During the question-and-answer session, analysts asked about TAVR growth drivers, the pending U.S. national coverage determination for TAVR, and the PROGRESS trial in moderate aortic stenosis.
Dan Lippis, Edwards’ global leader of TAVR, said the company is encouraged by the draft CMS policy and expects a final policy memo in September. He said potential benefits include a pathway for coverage of asymptomatic indications, recognition of symptomatic severe aortic stenosis as reasonable and necessary for Medicare beneficiaries without coverage with evidence development, and modernization of the policy to support heart teams in providing timely access to care.
On PROGRESS, Zovighian said Edwards separated the baseline characteristics presentation from the full results presentation to give physicians more time to understand the patient population. Lippis said the trial studies moderate aortic stenosis patients with at least one at-risk feature and emphasized that it is “not a heart failure trial.” Results are expected to be presented at TCT later this year.
Zovighian said the company expects minimal impact from PROGRESS in 2026 and reiterated that Edwards’ long-term TAVR outlook remains mid- to high-single-digit growth. He said the company remains confident in its target of approximately 10% average annual total company sales growth over the long term, alongside operating margin expansion.

3 Swing Trades for Q3 Earnings SeasonOceaneering International NYSE: OII reported second-quarter 2026 results that topped the high end of its adjusted EBITDA guidance range, with management citing strong execution across its portfolio and notable gains in offshore project activity.
President and Chief Executive Officer Rod Larson said the company’s adjusted EBITDA of $115 million was its highest quarterly level since the third quarter of 2015. He said the Offshore Projects Group, or OPG, was the largest contributor to the company’s EBITDA outperformance, driven by a favorable mix of international intervention and installation work, including light well intervention services in the Caspian Sea and an installation project offshore Egypt.
Get OII alerts:
Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Mike Summerall said consolidated revenue rose 10% year over year to $768 million, with growth in every segment except Integrity Management & Digital Solutions, or IMDS. Operating income increased 11% to $88.2 million, while net income attributable to Oceaneering rose 19% to $65 million, or $0.65 per share. Adjusted EBITDA increased 11% to $115 million.
Offshore Projects and Subsea Robotics Lead Results OPG revenue increased 22% from the prior-year quarter to $183 million, while operating income rose 39% to $30 million. Summerall said the segment generated a 16% operating income margin, supported by disciplined execution on international intervention and installation projects that are expected to continue into the third quarter. Vessel utilization declined year over year, but management expects it to improve in the third quarter as the company supports customers under several frame agreements.
Subsea Robotics, or SSR, also improved year over year, with revenue increasing 6% to $232 million and operating income rising 3% to $66.3 million. Average ROV revenue per day utilized increased to $11,894 from $11,265, reflecting improved contract pricing. ROV utilization was 66%, slightly below 67% in the prior-year quarter, as activity in Europe and West Africa largely offset lower activity in the U.S. Gulf.
Summerall said SSR’s EBITDA margin remained flat at 35%, as higher ROV pricing was offset by geographic and service mix, including a larger contribution from survey work, which carries lower margins than the company’s core ROV business. Larson said the Ocean Intervention II entered service after significant upgrades in 2025 and is now performing survey projects expected to keep the vessel utilized through most of the remainder of 2026. He also said the company expects to conduct a simultaneous operations, or SIMOPS, project from the vessel later this year.
Manufactured Products Improves Margins; ADTech Wins Defense Work Manufactured Products revenue increased 3% to $149 million, while operating income rose 17% to $21.9 million. The segment’s operating income margin improved to 15%, up 178 basis points year over year. Summerall attributed the improvement to conversion of higher-margin backlog, increased volume in the Rotator valves business and improved results in the Mobility Solutions product line.
The segment’s backlog declined to $445 million as of June 30, reflecting execution of previously awarded work. Summerall said the trailing 12-month book-to-bill ratio was 0.88, compared with 0.65 a year earlier. He said the company won multiple awards early in the third quarter and expects additional awards in the third and fourth quarters, supporting management’s expectation that backlog will improve in the second half and meet full-year book-to-bill guidance of 0.9 to 1.0.
In Aerospace and Defense Technologies, or ADTech, revenue increased 22% to $133 million, while operating income was up slightly to $16.4 million. Operating income margin declined to 12%, reflecting program mix and timing in the Oceaneering Technologies, or OTech, business line.
Larson highlighted new contract awards across defense and subsea applications, including subsea robotics, subsea systems, submarine rescue and submarine maintenance, construction and installation services. He pointed to a joint contract from the Defense Innovation Unit to support development of an Extra-Large Unmanned Underwater Vehicle as an example of the company’s strategy to deploy dual-use technologies for both energy and government customers. He also noted that the Space Systems team was recognized by Lockheed Martin as a best-in-class supplier for work on the Artemis program.
Cash Flow, Buybacks and Debt Refinancing Oceaneering generated $55.2 million of cash from operating activities in the quarter. Summerall said the year-over-year decrease reflected the timing of project milestones, customer receipts and vendor payments. The company invested $23.2 million in organic capital expenditures, with 34% allocated to growth and 66% to maintenance, and generated free cash flow of $32 million.
The company resumed share repurchases during the quarter, buying back $10 million of common stock. It ended the period with $629 million in cash, total liquidity of $844 million and no borrowings under its revolving credit facility.
Summerall said Oceaneering placed $500 million of senior notes due in 2034 and used the proceeds, together with cash on hand, to retire $500 million of senior notes due in 2028. The company also amended its secured revolving credit facility, increasing commitments to $345 million from $215 million and extending the maturity to July 2031. He said those transactions would be completed in July.
Asked about capital allocation, Larson said the company’s priorities remain organic investment first, inorganic growth second and returning capital to shareholders, primarily through buybacks. He said Oceaneering intends to invest around its core energy business, particularly SSR, and also sees opportunities to expand in defense, including through partnerships and potential acquisitions.
Guidance Raised at Low End, IMDS Outlook Reduced For the third quarter, Oceaneering expects revenue to increase and adjusted EBITDA to range from $115 million to $125 million. Larson said SSR revenue and operating income are expected to rise as ROV utilization improves and survey activity continues. OPG revenue and operating income are also expected to increase on higher vessel utilization in the U.S. Gulf and West Africa, as well as continuing international projects.
For the full year, management raised the low end of adjusted EBITDA guidance and now expects consolidated adjusted EBITDA of $400 million to $440 million in 2026. Larson said first-half performance increased confidence in the company’s outlook.
However, Oceaneering lowered its outlook for IMDS, citing ongoing uncertainty in the Middle East and reduced activity in West Africa. Management now expects IMDS operating income to decrease significantly compared with full-year 2025, with operating income margin in the low single-digit percentage range. Summerall said second-quarter IMDS revenue, operating income and margin declined due to lower activity, related cost absorption and increased personnel costs in West Africa and the Middle East.
Management Sees Offshore Activity Building During the question-and-answer portion of the call, Larson said offshore activity appears to be rising, though he does not expect a sharply defined inflection point. He cited longer contracts for rigs and ROVs, greater rig utilization and higher levels of contracted rigs as indicators of improving demand.
Larson said SSR should benefit from increased rig utilization and strong tree orders and installations, while OPG should benefit from longer-term confidence in offshore projects. Summerall added that longer-term rig contracts are a positive macro indicator.
Discussing regional opportunities, Larson identified Brazil as a key growth market, pointing to Petrobras activity and the company’s recently announced ROV contract in the country. He also cited Africa, including activity around Namibia and Senegal, as well as Australia and the Far East. Summerall also pointed to Norway and activity tied to Equinor as relevant to European energy security.
On defense spending, Larson said the company is seeing more inbound interest than it did three or four years ago, particularly from partners seeking Oceaneering’s offshore operating experience. Summerall said the company participates in both submarine repair and construction and autonomy-related defense work, including lower-cost uncrewed technologies.

Pinnacle Financial Partners NYSE: PNFP reported stronger second-quarter 2026 earnings and balance sheet growth, with management saying the bank remains on track with its full-year financial outlook while continuing to integrate its recent combination.
President and CEO Kevin Blair said the company reported diluted earnings per share of $2.07 and adjusted diluted EPS of $2.50, excluding $82 million of pre-tax adjusted items. Year-to-date adjusted EPS rose 26% from the same period last year, according to Blair.
Get PNFP alerts:
“This quarter is another proof point of that focus,” Blair said, pointing to growth in loans, deposits, fee income, credit performance and hiring. He said the company is maintaining its 2026 guidance, with year-to-date performance giving management “added conviction” in its outlook.
Loan Growth Exceeds Expectations, Deposits Rise Despite Seasonal Headwinds Pinnacle said loans increased $2.9 billion from the prior quarter, ahead of management’s expectations. Chief Financial Officer Jamie Gregory said period-end loans grew 14% annualized from the first quarter, with most of the growth coming from commercial and industrial lending. He described the growth as broad-based across geographic markets and supported by specialty lending platforms.
Deposits increased $795 million from the first quarter. Gregory said the quarter included typical seasonal headwinds from tax payments and public fund outflows, which tend to reverse in the second half of the year. Excluding the decline in public funds, core deposits grew $963 million, or 1%, in the quarter.
Blair said loan growth is tracking at the top end of the company’s full-year 9% to 11% guidance range, while deposit growth is tracking near the middle of its 8% to 10% range.
During the question-and-answer session, Gregory said the company expects strong deposit growth in the second half, helped by seasonal factors that could contribute $1.5 billion to $2 billion. He also said deposit production has exceeded $1 billion every month this year.
Net Interest Income Rises as Margin Compresses Net interest income was $956 million, up 2% from the first quarter, or 10% annualized, Gregory said. The increase reflected growth in earning assets, which rose 4% from the prior quarter.
Net interest margin was 3.44%, down 9 basis points from the first quarter, or roughly 6 basis points excluding non-recurring items in the prior period. Gregory cited a modest decline in loan yields, lower SOFR rates during the quarter and higher-cost funding tied to seasonal deposit trends as headwinds.
Pinnacle now expects full-year net interest margin in a range of 3.44% to 3.47%, while Blair said the company continues to expect revenue within its previous outlook and now sees full-year revenue trending toward $5.05 billion to $5.1 billion.
In response to analyst questions about margin pressure, Gregory said management still expects high single-digit net interest income growth over time, supported by loan growth and limited incremental expense tied to that growth. Blair added that the company is not seeing a “NIM that’s in free fall,” but rather one that is moderating while still supporting revenue growth.
Fee Income Mixed, Core Client Businesses Grow Adjusted non-interest revenue declined $12 million from the first quarter, largely due to lower income from BHG. Gregory said income from the company’s equity method investment in BHG totaled $24 million in the second quarter, in line with expectations as BHG shifts its loan placement strategy.
Gregory said core client income streams remained strong, with core banking, wealth management and capital markets all producing linked-quarter and year-over-year growth. Core banking and capital markets fees each increased 3% from the first quarter.
Asked about fee income expectations for the second half of the year, Gregory said the company expects continued growth across the board, with larger quarter-to-quarter increases likely from core banking fees and wealth management. He also said capital markets has “very strong momentum.”
Blair said the company remains on track to recognize about $20 million of revenue synergies in 2026, with roughly half achieved through June. He said most of the year-to-date revenue synergies have come from capital markets, including syndication capabilities, foreign exchange, hedging and equipment finance.
Credit Quality Remains Stable, Capital Builds Management characterized credit quality as a strength. Net charge-offs were $48 million, or 22 basis points, consistent with expectations. The non-performing asset ratio improved to 0.50% from 0.58% in the first quarter.
The allowance for credit losses ended the quarter at 1.17%, compared with 1.19% at the end of March. Blair said the reserve on new production is coming in lower than the overall portfolio, reflecting the mix of new assets rather than a shift toward lower standards.
Pinnacle’s preliminary common equity Tier 1 ratio rose 12 basis points from the first quarter to 9.93%. Gregory said the company’s priority is to deploy capital into “high return, client-driven growth” while moving toward a CET1 target of 10.25%.
Asked whether the company still expects to reach that target by year-end, Gregory said it depends on the pace of loan growth in the second half. He said Pinnacle generates about 30 basis points of capital each quarter before risk-weighted asset growth, with loan growth consuming a portion of that amount.
Hiring Momentum Continues During Integration Blair highlighted continued hiring as a key part of Pinnacle’s growth model. The company added 74 experienced revenue producers during the quarter, up 48% from the first quarter and up 14% from the combined firm’s second quarter of 2025. Blair said another 34 producers had already started or accepted offers in the first half of July.
Year-to-date, Pinnacle has added 124 producers, approximately half from what management considers core Synovus markets. Blair said retention, excluding merger-related synergies, was 94% year-to-date.
Blair said the competitive environment continues to favor Pinnacle, citing larger competitors’ bureaucracy and slower decision-making. He also referenced Coalition Greenwich data that placed Pinnacle first among peers in business momentum, measured by the net percentage of clients planning to do more business with the bank versus less.
“Strategy is a plan. Execution is a result,” Blair said. “We are six months in, and the results are doing the talking.”
For the remainder of 2026, Pinnacle expects adjusted expenses in the middle of its $2.675 billion to $2.775 billion guidance range. Blair said expenses are expected to increase from the first half due to revenue producer hiring, market expansion, third-party partnership revenue expenses and normal inflationary and growth-related costs.
Blair closed the call by saying the company is executing on the plan it laid out at the time of the combination. “We have real runway ahead, and it involves taking share one quarter, one client, and one banker at a time,” he said.

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.

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.

Both metrics were above the company’s expectations for the quarter. Total direct-to-consumer revenue increased 13%, led by a 17% gain at HOKA and a 6% increase at UGG.

He added that underlying consumer demand remained strong both internationally and in the United States, despite what the company described as a pressured consumer backdrop.
HOKA Growth Led by DTC and Product Innovation HOKA generated first-quarter revenue of $704 million, up 8% from a year earlier. Caroti said the brand’s performance was driven by global direct-to-consumer growth, including continued gains across Europe, China, Japan and the United States.
Was Decker’s Double Beat a Bullish Signal—Or Mere HOKA’s-Pocus?Deckers said demand was broad-based across HOKA product families, with strength in established franchises such as Clifton and Bondi as well as newer and updated models. Caroti highlighted Speedgoat 7, Mach 7, Mafate Speed 2 and Skyward products as contributors to demand. He said trail and lifestyle styles together accounted for more than half of global HOKA direct-to-consumer growth in the quarter.
The company also pointed to the early launch of Clifton Pro as an important product milestone. Caroti said the shoe had been in the market for about two weeks and had already prompted some wholesale reorders. He said the Clifton Pro is part of a broader effort to create clearer technology and product architecture within HOKA, including “Glide” products designed for cushioning and “Fly” products focused on responsiveness and speed.
HOKA wholesale revenue increased 3% globally. Management said the wholesale result was in line with expectations and reflected international shipment timing differences compared with unusually early shipments in the prior year. In the U.S., HOKA delivered higher sell-in and stronger full-price sell-through, while EMEA posted what Caroti called “another quarterly record for reorders.”
UGG Advances Year-Round Strategy UGG revenue rose 5% year over year to $278 million, with direct-to-consumer revenue up 6% and wholesale up 5%. Caroti said the brand grew in both the U.S. and international markets, with international growth led by Asia.
Management said UGG’s results reflected progress in its “365” strategy and men’s growth initiatives. The company continued to allocate availability of key classic styles while increasing marketing and product investment in fashion-casual footwear, sneakers and sandals.
Caroti cited demand for the Lowmel franchise, the new Minimel introduction and the Golden Collection, including GoldenGaze silhouettes. He said the men’s business accounted for the largest portion of incremental UGG revenue in the quarter, supported by all-gender products such as Tasman and Lowmel as well as newer men’s products including the Ottosee clog.
In response to an analyst question, Caroti said UGG’s men’s business remains about 15% of revenue, with a goal of reaching 20% or more. He also said the brand is less dependent on cold weather than in the past because of a more diversified offering across sneakers, sandals, mules and other year-round products.
Margins Improve Despite Tariff Headwinds Chief Financial Officer Steve Fasching said total revenue for the quarter was $1.02 billion. Gross margin improved to 56.4%, up 60 basis points from 55.8% a year earlier.
Fasching said the margin improvement was driven by favorable channel mix as direct-to-consumer grew faster than wholesale, favorable product mix and full-price selling, foreign currency benefits and better management of product closeouts. These benefits were partially offset by tariffs.
In the question-and-answer session, Fasching said better management of closeouts contributed about 60 basis points to first-quarter gross margin, while full-price selling together with channel and brand mix contributed about 110 basis points. Foreign exchange added about 40 basis points, while tariffs reduced gross margin by about 150 basis points year over year.
SG&A expense rose 13% to $420 million, reflecting hiring, marketing investments, higher rent related primarily to global HOKA stores, technology spending and foreign currency remeasurement. Deckers ended the quarter with $1.6 billion in cash and equivalents, inventory down 5% year over year to $808 million and no outstanding borrowings.
The company repurchased approximately $338 million of shares during the quarter at an average price of $103.79. As of June 30, 2026, Deckers had about $4.7 billion remaining under its share repurchase authorization.
Guidance Raised on Earnings and Margin Deckers maintained its fiscal 2027 revenue outlook of $5.86 billion to $5.91 billion, representing high-single-digit growth from the prior year. The company still expects HOKA revenue to rise at a low-double-digit rate and UGG revenue to increase at a mid-single-digit rate.
However, Deckers raised its gross margin expectation to slightly better than 56.5%, citing first-quarter outperformance. The company also increased its assumed go-forward tariff rate to 12.5% from 10%. Fasching said Deckers continues to pursue tariff refunds related to an IEEPA ruling but has not included any refund assumptions in its guidance.
Operating margin is now expected to be slightly better than 21.5%, and diluted EPS is projected at $7.35 to $7.50, up $0.05 from the prior outlook. SG&A is still expected to be about 35% of revenue as the company continues investing in growth initiatives.
For the second quarter, Deckers expects consolidated revenue to rise about 5% year over year. Fasching said HOKA is expected to contribute high-single-digit growth, UGG is expected to maintain mid-single-digit growth, and other brands are expected to decline about 50%, primarily due to portfolio streamlining. Second-quarter diluted EPS is expected to range from $1.73 to $1.78.
Management reiterated that growth is expected to accelerate in the second half of the fiscal year, driven primarily by HOKA’s international wholesale and distributor business. Fasching said the timing shift reflects logistics changes rather than a change in demand assumptions.
Management Emphasizes Full-Price Marketplace Throughout the call, Deckers executives emphasized the importance of maintaining a premium, full-price marketplace. Caroti said inventories remain tight and that the company is focused on preserving a “pull model” of demand.
“Our full price sell-through continues to be strong,” Caroti said. “Inventories are tight. Inventories are down 5% for the quarter.”
Fasching said high gross margins support brand credibility and benefit retail partners. He added that Deckers has not assumed a significant change in promotional cadence for the rest of the year.
Caroti said the company remains confident in its fiscal 2027 outlook, citing product innovation, disciplined marketplace execution and continued engagement with HOKA and UGG across channels and geographies.

Key Takeaways Key Oil Price Strikes $100, Market Sells OffIntel Posts Huge Earnings Beat, Revenues 25%FIX and DECK Also Outperform Expectations After the Close Thursday, July 23rd, 2026
Markets got pummeled today, not on Q2 earnings results or Weekly Jobless Claims, which were mostly terrific, but on international spot oil prices — Brent crude — crossed the psychologically important $100 per barrel (/bbl), up +7% today. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) rose over +6% to $92/bbl. A dozen straight days of bombing Iran and now the Yemen-based Houthis attacking Saudi ships have turned our “four to six week war” into a sinking albatross now five months along.
The Dow shed another -506 points today, -0.97%, while the S&P 500 did even worse: -90 points or -1.21%. The tech-heavy Nasdaq was the worst of the worst today — -553 points, -2.15% — while the small-cap Russell 2000 slid by only down -19 points, -0.67%. Part of this pullback in tech stems from the extraordinarily large AI capex spending from companies like Alphabet (GOOGL - Free Report) , which reported negative cash flow for the first time in its publicly traded history.
Intel Shines in Q2, FIX and DECK Also Report Earnings
Chip-making giant and Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) Intel (INTC - Free Report) may have just posted the strongest quarterly numbers in this Q2 earnings season: 42 cents per share doubled the 21 cents in the Zacks consensus, which itself was a +310% earnings growth increase from the -$0.10 per share reported in the year-ago quarter. Revenues in the quarter grew +25% year over year to $16.1 billion, well above the $14.41 billion analysts were estimating — the company’s strongest revenue growth in 15 years.
Guidance for the present quarter also impressed: Intel is looking for $0.31-0.38 per share in Q3, well above the $0.25 expected. Revenues of $15.8-16.8 billion is much stronger than the $15.08 billion consensus estimate. Gross margins are projected to come in at +42%. Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan called it “unprecedented demand for compute.” Shares of INTC raced higher by +11% after the release, but has since simmered down to +5.5% growth.
Another AI tech firm also reported “unprecedented,” record-setting results in its Q2 report this afternoon. Comfort Systems (FIX - Free Report) — no, not a mattress company; they provide cooling systems to the AI chips — reported earnings of $12.53 per share, nicely ahead of the $10.38 estimate from analysts. Revenues of $3.27 billion surged +50.3% year over year, well above the $2.94 billion in the Zacks consensus. These are all record numbers for the company, as is crossing over $1 billion in cash flow in the quarter. Shares are down a tad in the after-market, but are up +96% year to date.
Shoe brand parent Deckers Outdoors (DECK - Free Report) also outperformed on earnings after today’s closing bell, but much more modestly: earnings of 94 cents per share versus 88 cents expected. Revenues just met estimates of $1.02 billion in the quarter. Full-year earnings guidance was in-range with earlier forecasts. The Hoka running shoe grew +7.7% in the quarter while UGG gained +4.9%. All other brands collectively were down -18.1%. Shares are down -7% on the news, doubling the company’s losses year to date.

Image Credits:Bridget Bennett / Bloomberg / Getty Images Mobileye founder and CEO Amnon Shashua plans to step down from the top leadership post after nearly three decades, just as the company pushes into robotaxis and humanoid robots.
Shashua will remain CEO until Mobileye hires a replacement, according to a regulatory filing Thursday.
Mobileye got its start making computer vision chips based on Shashua’s academic research at Hebrew University in Israel, and grew into a major supplier of the chips that power automotive safety and driver-assistance features. It had the largest IPO in Israel’s history, was acquired in 2017 by Intel for $15.3 billion, then spun back out as a publicly traded company in 2022, though Intel remains its largest shareholder.
Under Shashua, Mobileye also moved beyond selling chips to automakers and began building its own systems that handle autonomous driving, which it now supplies to Volkswagen and its MOIA subsidiary.
In January, the company acquired Shashua’s humanoid robotics startup Mentee Robotics for $900 million, which Shashua called part of “Mobileye 3.0,” the next phase of the business focused on robotics and automotive AI.
Mobileye also said in June it would expand beyond its supplier status to launch its own robotaxi service in a U.S. city in 2027.

Why Wall Street Is Backing These 3 Comeback StocksSummit Therapeutics NASDAQ: SMMT executives used the company’s latest earnings call to emphasize updated survival data for ivonescimab, outline the timing of key late-stage trial readouts and detail the company’s cash position as it prepares for a potential U.S. regulatory decision later this year.
Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer Bob Duggan said Summit remains focused on ivonescimab, its PD-1/VEGF bispecific antibody and lead investigational asset. Duggan said ivonescimab has produced positive data in four Phase III clinical studies to date, leading to two approvals in China, with one additional filing under review there. He said 15 Phase III trials are ongoing or have read out across multiple tumor types, and that Summit and partner Akeso have initiated 52 clinical trials evaluating the drug.
Get Summit Therapeutics alerts:
MarketBeat Week in Review – 11/4 - 11/8Duggan also said more than 4,000 patients have been dosed with ivonescimab in Summit- or Akeso-sponsored clinical trials globally, while more than 70,000 patients have received the drug commercially in China.
Updated HARMONi Data Submitted to FDA President and Co-Chief Executive Officer Dr. Maky Zanganeh highlighted an updated overall survival analysis from the global Phase III HARMONi trial, which evaluated ivonescimab plus chemotherapy versus chemotherapy alone in patients with EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer after TKI therapy.
Summit Therapeutics: Is Their Lung Cancer Drug a Game Changer?Zanganeh said the latest analysis, with a June 2026 data cutoff, showed Western patients had reached a median follow-up of more than 23 months, while Asian patients remained at a median follow-up of 33 months. The company reported an overall survival hazard ratio of 0.76 in both the total population and the Western regional data.
“The hazard ratio for Western patients has improved with more follow-up time,” Zanganeh said, adding that the Western results are now consistent with the magnitude of overall survival benefit seen in Asian patients, who had longer follow-up at the primary analysis.
Summit said no new safety signals were observed in the latest data cut, and that the safety profile remained acceptable and manageable, consistent with previous Phase III results of ivonescimab plus chemotherapy.
Zanganeh said Summit has made the updated results available to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The company’s biologics license application for ivonescimab plus chemotherapy in the EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer post-TKI setting remains under FDA review, with a target PDUFA date of Nov. 14. Zanganeh noted that the FDA has previously said a statistically significant overall survival benefit is necessary to support marketing authorization in this setting.
Key Trial Timelines Remain in Focus Summit also provided updates on several global Phase III studies. HARMONi-3 is evaluating ivonescimab plus chemotherapy against pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy in first-line metastatic non-small cell lung cancer in both squamous and non-squamous histologies, which will be analyzed separately.
Zanganeh said enrollment has been completed in both cohorts. Summit expects to reach the number of events needed for a progression-free survival analysis in the squamous cohort in the second half of this year, along with an early interim look at overall survival. The company expects a separate overall survival interim analysis in the first half of 2027. For the non-squamous cohort, Summit expects to reach the number of events for a progression-free survival analysis in the first half of 2027.
In the question-and-answer session, Chief Business and Strategy Officer Dave Gancarz said the HARMONi-3 squamous PFS timing is likely “towards the middle to back end of 2026,” rather than in the near term. He said the first-half 2027 overall survival analysis should have median follow-up generally consistent with the HARMONi-6 analysis and the updated Western patient data from HARMONi.
Summit said HARMONi-7, which compares ivonescimab monotherapy against pembrolizumab monotherapy in first-line non-small cell lung cancer with high PD-L1 expression, continues to enroll. HARMONi-GI3 is evaluating ivonescimab plus chemotherapy versus bevacizumab plus chemotherapy as first-line therapy in unresectable colorectal cancer.
Combination Collaborations Expand Development Plans Zanganeh also reviewed Summit’s collaborations with Revolution Medicines, GSK and Arcus Biosciences. The Revolution Medicines collaboration began enrolling in the first quarter and is evaluating ivonescimab with three novel RAS inhibitors across solid tumor settings including pancreatic, colorectal and non-small cell lung cancers.
Summit expects its GSK collaboration, which will evaluate ivonescimab with GSK’s B7-H3 antibody-drug conjugate in multiple solid tumors, to enroll its first patient later this quarter. The company also announced a collaboration with Arcus to evaluate ivonescimab with Arcus’ HIF-2α inhibitor casdatifan in first-line metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma. Summit expects initial data from that collaboration by mid-next year.
The company also pointed to ILLUMINE, a Phase III head and neck cancer study sponsored by European cooperative group GORTEC, which is enrolling in Europe and is expected to begin in China later this year.
Cash Position Rises, Expenses Increase Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer Manmeet Soni said Summit ended the second quarter of 2026 with $690.7 million in cash, up from $598.7 million at the end of the first quarter. Soni attributed the $92 million increase primarily to $231 million raised through the company’s at-the-market facility, partially offset by approximately $140 million used in operating activities during the quarter.
Soni said Summit filed a prospectus supplement for a new ATM facility of up to $380 million to provide additional financing flexibility. He also said the company currently has no debt on its balance sheet.
Total GAAP operating expenses were $220.5 million in the second quarter, compared with $195.2 million in the first quarter. Non-GAAP operating expenses, which exclude stock-based compensation, were $151.8 million, compared with $122.4 million in the prior quarter. Soni said the increase was primarily driven by higher research and development expenses related to clinical trial costs for HARMONi-GI3, HARMONi-3 and HARMONi-7.
Commercial Preparation Underway In response to an analyst question, Soni said Summit is preparing for a possible U.S. commercial launch ahead of the Nov. 14 PDUFA date. He said the company has hired its commercial leadership team, market access staff and marketing personnel, while field force hiring would typically occur closer to the regulatory date. Gancarz added that the company has also ramped up medical science liaisons.
Duggan closed the call by reiterating management’s confidence in ivonescimab. “We know that ivonescimab works,” he said. “The question I leave you with is, what if ivonescimab works really well?”
