Q2 FY26

TL;DR. Helios (HLIO) delivered Q2 sales of $232M (high end of guidance) with adjusted EPS of $0.88 beating the top end, raised full-year 2026 outlook to $880–900M sales and $3.05–$3.25 adjusted EPS, generated record Q2 operating cash flow of $42M, and reduced net leverage to 1.4x.

Bullish
  • + Q2 sales of $232M at high end of guidance, with adjusted EPS of $0.88 exceeding top end by $0.05
  • + Raised FY2026 sales outlook to $880–900M (from $840–870M) and adjusted EPS to $3.05–$3.25 (from $2.75–$3.00)
  • + Raised FY2026 adjusted EBITDA margin range to 20.2%–21.0%, lifting the bottom end
