What the filing says
AZZ Inc. reported Q2 FY2027 (ended Aug 31, 2026) sales of $486.9M (+16.7% YoY), with Metal Coatings up 22.9% to $233.5M and Precoat Metals up 11.5% to $253.4M. Adjusted diluted EPS grew 29.0% to $2.00. The company completed acquisition of Seattle Galvanizing for $57.5M, repurchased $20M in stock (136,303 shares at $146.71/share), increased quarterly dividend 20% to $0.24/share, and reduced debt by $15M. Full-year guidance raised: sales to $1.825–$1.875B (from $1.80–$1.85B), Adjusted EBITDA to $380–$420M (from $375–$415M), and Adjusted EPS to $7.00–$7.30 (from $6.75–$7.15).
Why this rating
Strong organic growth (16.7% sales), margin expansion, and raised guidance signal healthy momentum. $57.5M acquisition and $20M buyback are material capital deployments (~2.4% and 0.6% of $3.3B market cap). Debt leverage improved to 1.3x. Execution risk on raised targets and macro headwinds offset by operational excellence and record quarterly results.
