Company Overview

Ingersoll Rand operates in mission-critical flow technologies and industrial equipment, selling compressor, blower, pump, vacuum, filtration, and dosing systems, alongside parts and services. Its business is divided between the Industrial Technologies and Services segment ITS and the Precision and Science Technologies segment PST, while its aftermarket business provides a more recurring source of revenue; it represented 36% of fiscal Q2 2026 revenue. The company serves applications including general industries, food and beverage, biopharma, power generation, electrical infrastructure, air separation for semiconductors and electronics, and shipbuilding.

In fiscal Q2 2026, revenue according to EDGAR data was approximately $2.0 billion, gross profit was $862.6 million, net income was $256.8 million, and diluted earnings per share were $0.66. Operationally, the company reported year-over-year revenue growth of 9% and organic growth of 4%, while adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization rose 2% to $520 million, but its margin declined 160 basis points to 25.4%. On a trailing twelve-month basis in 2026, the company recorded revenue of $7.9 billion, gross profit of $3.4 billion, and net income of $959.1 million.

ITS revenue rose approximately 9% in fiscal Q2 2026, including 4% organically, and its adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization reached $435 million at a margin of 26.8%. PST increased revenue by 8%, including 4% organically, and its adjusted earnings rose 15% to $135 million, with margin expanding 200 basis points to 31.5%. This contrast highlights that strong execution in PST partially offset pricing, inflation, and commercial investment pressures within ITS, particularly in China.

What's Driving the Stock

  • On July 31, 2026, Ingersoll Rand raised its fiscal 2026 revenue growth outlook to a range of 4.5%–6.5%, an increase of 200 basis points at the midpoint, assuming organic growth of 1%–3%, a 2.5% contribution from acquisitions, and 1% from foreign currency.
  • Orders in fiscal Q2 2026 were slightly above $2 billion, up 5% year over year and 2% organically, then organic order growth during the first four weeks of July 2026 reached the low-to-mid teens range as some long-cycle projects converted into actual orders.
  • PST achieved organic order growth of 7% in fiscal Q2 2026, supported by low-double-digit growth in life sciences and mid-single-digit growth in precision technologies, while the segment's margin expanded to 31.5%, and management expects it to approach 32% or slightly higher during the second half of fiscal 2026.
  • On July 31, 2026, the company closed the acquisition of Lone Star Blowers, which is expected to add approximately $50 million in annual revenue and expand aftermarket services and the rental fleet. It also signed an agreement to acquire Fai Filtri, which is expected to close in fiscal Q4 2026 and add approximately $30 million annually.
  • Free cash flow reached $269 million in fiscal Q2 2026, up approximately 28%, with available liquidity of $3.8 billion and leverage at 1.7 times. The company also agreed to an initial recovery of $187.5 million from certain insurers regarding a claim related to the ILC Dover transaction, of which $162.5 million is expected to be collected during 2026 and is not included in free cash flow guidance.

Buying & Selling Case

▲ Buying Case4 pts

  • +Demand quality supports the positive thesis: organic revenue rose 4% and organic orders increased 2% in fiscal Q2 2026, then organic orders accelerated to the low-to-mid teens range during the first four weeks of July 2026, with continued strength in short- and medium-cycle businesses.
  • +The aftermarket mix, which represented 36% of fiscal Q2 2026 revenue, increases the recurrence of cash flows, and the company targets recurring revenue of approximately $1 billion by the end of 2027. The Lone Star Blowers and Fai Filtri acquisitions reinforce this direction by adding services, rentals, and filtration to the core technology base.
  • +The financial position provides capacity to fund growth and return capital; available liquidity reached $3.8 billion and leverage was 1.7 times at the end of fiscal Q2 2026, while approximately $248 million was returned to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends.
  • +Insider data indicate one purchase and no sales during the three months ended August 3, 2026, for net purchases of $1 million, which is a supportive signal but does not replace an assessment of operating performance and cash flows.

Valuation

The analyst consensus for IR stock is “Buy,” with an average price target of $90.6 and a target range of $84 to $103. The average target is below the 52-week high of $100.96, while the highest target is slightly above that peak, reflecting a positive outlook conditional on sustained demand and margin improvement. This optimism is counterbalanced by clear execution risk due to the 160-basis-point decline in adjusted earnings margin in fiscal Q2 2026 and the dependence of second-half improvement on pricing, productivity, and normalization of corporate costs.

FAQ

What drove IR's results in fiscal Q2 2026?

Ingersoll Rand's revenue reached approximately $2.0 billion in fiscal Q2 2026, with year-over-year growth of 9% and organic growth of 4%. The company recorded gross profit of $862.6 million and net income of $256.8 million, while adjusted earnings per share were $0.86 according to the earnings call. Growth came from a broad base of markets, with ITS revenue rising approximately 9% and PST revenue increasing 8%. In contrast, the company's adjusted earnings margin declined to 25.4% due to inflation, pricing pressures in China, investments, and higher corporate costs.

How do the conditions of Ingersoll Rand's ITS and PST segments differ?

ITS generated adjusted earnings of $435 million and a margin of 26.8% in fiscal Q2 2026, with organic revenue growth of 4% and approximately flat organic orders. The segment was primarily affected by difficulty passing inflation through to prices in China and by commercial investments in new technologies. PST, meanwhile, recorded adjusted earnings of $135 million, up 15%, and expanded its margin by 200 basis points to 31.5%. PST was supported by low-double-digit growth in life sciences orders and mid-single-digit growth in precision technologies, with particular strength in biopharma applications.

Automated analysis for informational purposes only — not investment advice.

  • −Ingersoll Rand's geographic dependence on the Americas, which represent approximately 50% of revenue, is an important concentration point, while Europe, the Middle East, and Africa account for nearly one-third. In fiscal Q2 2026, organic orders in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa declined by a low-double-digit percentage due to delays in long-cycle blower and vacuum projects in Europe and continued delays in certain project activity in the Middle East.
  • −The company's adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization margin declined 160 basis points year over year to 25.4% in fiscal Q2 2026, due to difficulty offsetting inflation with pricing in China, commercial and technology investments, and higher corporate costs. Management also expects the ITS margin for fiscal 2026 to remain slightly below its fiscal 2025 level, making improved pricing and productivity in the second half an important condition for achieving guidance.
  • −Raising revenue guidance to growth of 4.5%–6.5% in fiscal 2026 requires sequential margin improvement during the second half, despite maintaining the adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization range unchanged at $2.13–$2.19 billion. The expected increase depends on the realization of first-half pricing, the non-recurrence of the management incentive settlement, and the emergence of productivity project savings, creating execution risk if any of these factors are delayed.
  • −The long-cycle project business remains vulnerable to delays; the book-to-bill ratio was 1.0 times in fiscal Q2 2026, slightly below the usual level for this quarter, because several large orders were delayed. Projects that converted into orders in July 2026 typically take 6 to 18 months, so most of their impact contributes to building the 2027 backlog rather than providing broad immediate support to fiscal 2026 second-half revenue.
  • −The active acquisition policy carries integration and pricing risks, as of July 31, 2026, the company had eleven additional transactions under letters of intent and more than 200 companies in the evaluation pipeline. The warranty and indemnity claim related to the ILC Dover transaction, despite the agreement on an initial recovery of $187.5 million, also illustrates the potential for exposures to emerge after transactions close, and the data provide no confirmation of the amount of any additional recoveries.
  • −The analyst target range of $84–$103 reflects differing valuation assessments, while the average target of $90.6 is approximately 10% below the 52-week high of $100.96. Therefore, the scope for revaluation may become limited if order and acquisition growth does not translate into sustained expansion in margins and earnings.

Ingersoll Rand closed the acquisition of Lone Star Blowers on July 31, 2026, and expects the acquired company to add approximately $50 million in annual revenue. The transaction expands IR's expertise in blower technologies and adds an established services business and rental fleet that support aftermarket revenue. The company also signed an agreement to acquire Italy's Fai Filtri, which is expected to close in fiscal Q4 2026 and add approximately $30 million in annual revenue. The two transactions aim to strengthen aftermarket and filtration capabilities within the disciplined bolt-on acquisition strategy.

What is Ingersoll Rand's guidance for fiscal 2026?

The company expects fiscal 2026 revenue growth of 4.5%–6.5%, including organic growth of 1%–3%, a 2.5% contribution from acquisitions, and 1% from foreign currency. It maintained its adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization range at $2.13–$2.19 billion. It also maintained expected adjusted earnings per share at $3.45–$3.57, with results expected near the high end of the range, and set free cash flow conversion at approximately 95%. This guidance does not include any benefit from a refund of IEEPA tariffs or additional amounts expected from the ILC Dover claim.

Can order growth in July 2026 convert quickly into revenue?

Organic order growth during the first four weeks of July 2026 reached the low-to-mid teens range, driven by the conversion of long-cycle projects and continued strength in short- and medium-cycle businesses. However, long-cycle projects typically take 6 to 18 months, so management explained that they are primarily building the 2027 backlog. A portion of their revenue may be recognized during the second half of fiscal 2026, but the data do not specify its size. This timing difference limits the use of the July reading alone to estimate near-term revenue.

What are the most significant margin risks facing IR stock?

The adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization margin declined 160 basis points to 25.4% in fiscal Q2 2026. Pricing pressure relative to inflation in China was the largest factor, alongside investment in technologies and commercial applications and an increase in unallocated costs to $49 million from $34.6 million a year earlier. The improvement plan for the second half of fiscal 2026 depends on the realization of pricing and productivity actions and the management incentive settlement not recurring at the same level. In contrast, PST demonstrated a better ability to protect profitability, raising its margin to 31.5%, and management expects it to reach approximately 32% or slightly higher during the second half.
