Summary · why it matters

Woodward beat third-quarter earnings estimates and raised its fiscal 2026 adjusted earnings guidance to $9.30 to $9.50 per share from the prior $9.15 to $9.45. Adjusted earnings rose 43.2% year over year to $2.52 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 5.4%, while sales increased 21.2% to $1.11 billion. The company maintained its 20% to 23% sales growth outlook and $300 million to $350 million free cash flow forecast. Aerospace sales are expected to grow 21% to 23% with a margin of about 23.5%, and Industrial sales growth guidance moved to 19% to 21% with a margin outlook of about 19%. The results were supported by pricing and China on-highway operations, though capital spending and working-capital needs remain elevated as the company invests in capacity expansions to sustain demand into fiscal 2027.
