What the filing says
Linde reported Q2 2026 sales of $9.3B (up 9% YoY, 4% underlying), adjusted operating profit margin of 29.5%, and adjusted EPS of $4.50 (up 10%). The company raised full-year 2026 adjusted EPS guidance to $17.70–$17.90 (8–9% growth). Project backlog reached a record $8.1B in long-term electronics supply contracts; total backlog is $11B.
Why this rating
Solid earnings beat and modest FY guidance raise; $9.3B quarterly sales is ~0.1% of $220B market cap. Strong backlog signals future revenue, but no transformational M&A, restructuring, or margin surprise. Routine quarterly beat.
