Air Products reported a strong second quarter for fiscal 2026, with GAAP EPS of $3.19 and adjusted EPS of $3.20, both showing significant growth from the prior year. The company raised its full-year adjusted EPS guidance to a range of $13.00 to $13.25, driven by higher volumes, productivity gains, and pricing improvements despite helium pricing headwinds. Key growth areas include new contracts in electronics and aerospace sectors, and efforts to strengthen helium supply chain resilience. Air Products expects capital expenditures around $4 billion for fiscal 2026 and remains focused on earnings growth, project optimization, and capital discipline amid macroeconomic uncertainties.
