Analysts had been bracing for a potential “soft” guide, and management delivered exactly that by tempering previous long-term expectations due to a “cautious macro environment.” Management guided net income for 2026 of $3.19 billion to $3.71 billion, or EPS of $5.04 to $5.87. Capital expenditures were set in a range of $2.70 billion to $3.20 billion.
On January 21, 2026, the board of directors announced a 4% increase in the quarterly dividend to $1.07 per share. That’s an annualized payout of $4.28 per share. The yield is about 4.8%.
Shares retreated marginally in Tuesday’s premarket but were still up about 18% year to date.
