On May 5, shares of TDG soared 3.6% after posting impressive Q2 results. The company’s revenue grew 18.3% year-over-year to $2.54 billion, surpassing analyst forecasts of $2.46 billion. Its adjusted EPS of $9.85 per share also topped the consensus estimate of $9.44.
Supported by the robust quarterly performance, management increased its full-year 2026 outlook and now expects revenue of roughly $10.36 billion and adjusted EPS of nearly $39.52 at the midpoint.
