Terex (NYSE:TEX – Get Free Report) released its quarterly earnings data on Wednesday. The industrial products company reported $1.12 earnings per share (EPS) for the quarter, hitting the consensus estimate of $1.12, FiscalAI reports. Terex had a return on equity of 15.93% and a net margin of 2.92%.The business had revenue of $1.32 billion during the quarter, compared to analysts’ expectations of $1.30 billion. During the same period in the prior year, the firm posted $0.77 EPS. The business’s quarterly revenue was up 6.2% compared to the same quarter last year. Terex updated its FY 2026 guidance to 4.500-5.00 EPS.
Here are the key takeaways from Terex’s conference call:
- Terex completed the merger with REV Group, adding roughly $2.5B of revenue and $230M of Adjusted EBITDA and creating a new specialty vehicle segment; management expects $75M run-rate synergies (≈$37.5M realized within 12 months) with full capture by 2028.
- Operational momentum: full‑year EPS of $4.93, EBITDA of $635M, free cash flow of $325M (147% conversion), and Q4 bookings of $1.9B (+32% pro forma) that leave meaningful backlogs across segments (ES ~$1.1B; Aerials ~$906M; SV ~2 years).
- 2026 pro forma outlook: sales of $7.5–8.1B (~5% growth) and EBITDA of $930M–$1.0B (≈12.4% margin midpoint), including ~$28M of synergies; EPS guidance of $4.50–5.00 reflects a modest (~3%) dilution from the deal and a higher ~21% tax rate.
- Aerials faces near‑term headwinds from the expanded Section 232 tariff (management cites roughly a $16M incremental 2026 impact) and expects 2026 sales/margins to be flat despite offsetting price and productivity; the company is pursuing a deliberate strategic review/sale of Aerials, creating execution and timing uncertainty.
