HP IncHP beat Q2 estimates and raised full-year EPS guidance, indicating strong financial performance.

HP reported better-than-expected revenue and profit for the second quarter of fiscal 2026, with sales rising 12.5% year over year to $15.68 billion, beating analyst estimates of $14.58 billion, and adjusted earnings per share of $0.83, a 20% beat. The company raised its full-year adjusted EPS guidance to $3.24 at the midpoint, an 8% increase. Management attributed the strong performance to robust growth in Personal Systems, particularly AI-enabled PCs, which reached 46% of shipment mix, and premium offerings. However, operating margins remained flat at 6% due to competitive pressures and rising commodity costs, especially in the Print segment. CEO Bruce Broussard highlighted the 10th consecutive quarter of revenue growth in Personal Systems, while CFO Karen Parkhill emphasized efforts to recover margins. The stock traded at $28.36, down from $30.75 before the earnings release.
