Wabtec's flow business (non-backlog revenue tied to rail volumes) accelerated in Q2, driven by a 4% year-over-year increase in North America carloads and modal shift from truck to rail. This flow revenue carries higher margins and is expected to sustain into H2, contributing to the guidance raise.
“Where we've seen the growth is coming strictly from that... we've looked at that and held what we're seeing in the second quarter throughout the back half and that's delivering the $110 million of additional benefits.”
Wabtec's 'Integration 3.0' program is delivering faster-than-expected cost savings, adding to margin expansion. Management raised the savings expectation and said it is a key driver of the EPS guidance increase.
“And again, that is part of that increase in the EPS guidance of 30 cents.”
Vale is investing in PTC technology from Wabtec, indicating ongoing modernization and safety upgrades in its Brazilian rail operations, which could signal sustained demand for rail automation solutions.
“We also signed a $184 million order for positive train control with Vale, strengthening our long-standing partnership and marking an important step forward in advancing rail safety, efficiency, and automation across Brazil's rail network.”
… expansion and renewals. Now let's turn to slide six, and highlight several recent business wins. During the quarter, we secured a billion dollar order from an Australian customer spending across locomotives, services, components and digital solutions. This award highlights the breadth of WAPTX capabilities and demonstrates how our integrated offering are creating value throughout the product life cycle. We also signed a $184 million order for positive train control with Vale, strengthening our long-standing partnership and marking an important step forward in advancing rail safety, efficiency, and automation across Brazil's rail network. In transit, we were awarded a $55 million platform door order for the Grand Paris Express project. Moving to mining. Our APAC team secured a $52 million order to supply drive systems for 240-ton mining trucks. Overall, these successes continue to demonstrate our leadership in the markets we serve, the strength of our pipeline, and the commitment of the Wabtec team to deliver meaningful results for our customers and stakeholders. With that, I'll turn it over to John to review the quarter segment results and our overall financial performance. John?
