On August 3, CNH Industrial N.V. rose 11.95% in regular trading, trading at $11.57/share, with turnover of $6.83 million. The surge followed the company's pre-market release of second-quarter results that significantly exceeded market expectations, accompanied by an upward revision to full-year guidance.
CNH Industrial reported Q2 adjusted earnings of $0.13 per share, beating the FactSet consensus estimate of $0.10 by 30%, while revenue came in at $4.80 billion versus expectations of $4.77 billion and $4.71 billion a year earlier. Notably, Q1 adjusted EPS was only $0.01, indicating a substantial sequential improvement in profitability driven by cost controls and demand recovery. The company simultaneously raised its full-year adjusted EPS guidance to $0.41-$0.46 from the prior range of $0.35-$0.45, with the midpoint now above the Street consensus of $0.41.
CNH Industrial is the world's second-largest agricultural machinery manufacturer and a major player in construction equipment. The company had previously noted the agriculture equipment industry was at the trough of the current cycle, making this quarter's beat and guidance lift a significant confidence boost for investors.
