IDEX raises 2026 revenue and EPS guidance but valuation limits upside, hold rating maintained.

IDEX Corporation reported strong revenue and profit growth, especially in its Health & Science Technologies segment. The company raised its 2026 organic revenue growth forecast to 5–6% and adjusted earnings per share (EPS) guidance to $8.70–$8.85, reflecting better demand in end markets. Despite these positive fundamentals and the upgraded outlook, IDEX's current valuation is high compared to peers, which restricts potential upside. The analyst maintains a 'hold' rating, suggesting investors wait for a more attractive entry point given the stock's pricing relative to its growth prospects.

IDEX Corporation stock is growing nicely, not enough to justify a bullish rating. For readers following Industrials-sector stocks, here is Pluang's market snapshot as of Oct 25, 2026 08:51 WIB: out of 135 priced stocks, 52 rose and 81 fell. Notable movers include QXO at USD 10.51 with a 1-day change of -4.63%, SMX at USD 1.75 down 4.37%, and NAT at USD 7.86 up 4.24%.
