Record backlog expected to finish year with an eight handle

Linde delivered record Q2 sales and EPS and a record backlog, with FY EPS guidance raised at the bottom end, but margin compression from U.S. home care and equipment mix kept the tone measured. Management sees U.S. manufacturing green shoots, strong electronics/aerospace demand, and margin improvement ahead, while helium dislocations persist until early 2026. Q2 sales $9.3B, EPS $4.50; backlog record $8.1B after a $1B U.S. electronics win.

  • FY2026 EPS guide raised to $17.70-$17.90; Q3 guide $4.45-$4.55.
  • Margins ex cost pass-through fell 30bps, driven mainly by the U.S. home care business; management is evaluating strategic options for it.
  • Electronics is the fastest-growing end market; a Taiwan JV is investing ~$800M in ASUs/hydrogen for new semiconductor facilities.

Оценка менеджмента

Тон

Cautiously Confident

Management highlighted record backlog and green shoots in manufacturing but acknowledged near-term margin disappointment, especially in U.S. home care, while expressing confidence in sequential improvement and long-term margin expansion.

AI

Оценка AI от менеджмента

Management identified electronics as the fastest-growing end market, driven by project startups and strong demand tied to AI-related hardware. This is supporting record backlog additions, particularly for advanced semiconductor fabs in the U.S., and is also lifting construction activity linked to data centers.

Капзатраты

Инвестиции и мощности

Management raised the 2026 capex estimate, driven by record backlog wins and additional base capex for commercial space customers. The sale-of-gas backlog reached a record $8.1 billion, and roughly $1.3 billion of project startups are expected this year, keeping capital deployment elevated.

Внешние сигналы

A1

Helium price gains are currently offset by dislocation costs, and management does not expect the helium market to normalize until early next year even if the Strait of Hormuz issue is resolved.

Доказательства
“we will see normalization progress but it's at a small you know a slower pace than most of us would like and it'll kind of probably take us into the early part of next year”
A2

U.S. package business hard goods sales are up double digits, which management treats as a leading indicator of a U.S. manufacturing recovery; aerospace accounted for more than a third of manufacturing growth.

Доказательства
“Here, the gas side has been growing mid to high single digit, with the hard goods themselves growing double digit.”
A3

Linde added $1B of electronics backlog for Western U.S. advanced-node fabs and separately has a Taiwan JV investing about $800M in ASUs and hydrogen for new semiconductor fab/advanced packaging facilities; despite starting up $1.3B of projects this year, it still expects backlog to end 2026 above $8B.

Доказательства
“not included in the backlog are a couple of electronics wins by a taiwan jv which will invest approximately 800 million dollars”
