Howmet Aerospace reported Q2 2026 earnings per share of $1.33, topping the consensus estimate of roughly $1.25 by nearly 7%. Revenue came in at $2.547 billion, beating expectations by about 5%. The quarter extended a streak of consistent beats that stretches back at least to Q3 2024, with reported EPS climbing from $0.71 that quarter all the way to $1.33 now.
The stronger-than-expected results gave management the confidence to raise full-year revenue guidance to a range of $10.0 billion to $10.1 billion, citing extraordinary demand on gas turbine management calls. Engine Products margins moved higher alongside the top-line lift, and the company also increased its dividend and stepped up share buybacks during the quarter.
