FRANKLIN ELECTRIC CO INC 8K

Franklin Electric reported stronger second quarter 2026 earnings and raised its full-year 2026 revenue and adjusted EPS guidance following broad-based sales and profit growth across all segments.

Franklin Electric Co., Inc. reported its second quarter 2026 results, highlighting 6% year-over-year growth in consolidated net sales to $622.9 million, 6% growth in operating income to $93.6 million (15.0% margin), and an 11% increase in GAAP diluted EPS to $1.46, with adjusted diluted EPS up 18% to $1.55. Net sales increased across all segments—Water Systems (up 5%), Energy Systems (up 3%), and Distribution (up 11%)—driven by acquisitions, price realization, favorable foreign exchange, and higher volumes, while Energy Systems results included a $4.5 million legal settlement expense that reduced GAAP operating income but still yielded 11% growth in adjusted operating income. The company also raised its full-year 2026 guidance, now expecting net sales of $2.21–$2.29 billion and adjusted diluted EPS of $4.50–$4.70, and scheduled a conference call and webcast for July 28, 2026, to discuss the results and outlook.
