Raised fiscal 2026 EPS guidance by $1 to $12.80
Rockwell delivered a strong Q2 FY2026 with massive beats, driven by double-digit sales growth (esp. in data centers, semiconductor, e-commerce) and exceptional operating leverage (50%+ incrementals). Management raised full-year guidance for revenue growth, EPS, and operating margins, while highlighting both a broad-based demand improvement and new input cost headwinds (memory). Q2 FY26 organic sales grew 9% (12% reported), far exceeding expectations, with strength across discrete (auto, semis, e-comm) and process (energy), plus data center sales more than doubling.

- Enterprise operating margin hit 22.5% (up 350bps YoY) due to strong volume, price, and productivity, driving 50% incremental margins and a raised full-year guide.
- FY26 guidance raised: organic revenue growth 5-9%, adjusted EPS $12.50-$13.10, enterprise operating margin 21.5%. This is a $1.00 raise to EPS guidance.
- Management explicitly cited memory cost inflation (due to AI demand) as a key back-half headwind, expected to be a 'double-digit million-dollar' cost, which is being offset by pricing.
