Q2 FY26 earnings call · Jul 28, 2026
Q2 FY26

TL;DR. Xylem posted Q2 orders up 42% and adjusted EPS of $1.46 (+16%), with record adjusted EBITDA margin of 23.3% (+150bps), and narrowed full-year organic revenue growth to 2-3% while raising EPS guidance to $5.55-$5.70 from $5.35-$5.60 after electric metering project delays pressured the top line.

Bullish
  • + Record quarterly adjusted EPS of $1.46, up 16% year-over-year.
  • + Water Infrastructure EBITDA margin expanded 480 basis points on strong North America transport leverage.
  • + Full-year adjusted EPS guidance raised to $5.55-$5.70 from $5.35-$5.60 and full-year EBITDA margin guidance raised to 23.1-23.5% from 22.9-23.3%.
  • + Data center revenue is expected to grow ~200% in 2026 with $5.3 billion ending backlog and book-to-bill well above 1.
Bearish
  • − Full-year organic revenue growth guidance narrowed to 2-3% from 2-4% and reported revenue growth narrowed to ~2% from 2-3% due to MCS electric project delays.
  • − MCS full-year outlook reduced to low single-digit revenue decline with EBITDA margin down 200 basis points on electric metering affordability and election-related capex caution.
  • − China revenue declined 27% in Q2 with orders down over 30%, and China is right-sized to ~2% of sales from ~3% last year.
  • − Net debt to adjusted EBITDA increased to 0.8x, driven by opportunistic share repurchases of $1,243 million YTD.
  • − Applied Water segment EBITDA margin declined 50 basis points year-over-year on inflation and lower volume.
  • − Company continues to monitor broader risks including Middle East conflict, tariff changes, and inflationary pressures.
