Management Commentary
“Emerson had an outstanding third quarter with sales, margin expansion, earnings and cash flow all exceeding expectations,” said Emerson President and Chief Executive Officer Lal Karsanbhai. “Demand was robust, with underlying orders up 7%, led by Software & Systems and broad-based growth in North America and Asia. The conflict in the Middle East remains fluid, and I am proud of our team’s ability to deliver results and support our customers around the world.”
Karsanbhai continued, “We are raising our full year guidance, reflecting our strong third quarter performance and healthy demand. Secular tailwinds continue to support sustained investment in our growth verticals and provide a solid foundation as we finish 2026 and look ahead to 2027.”

The following tables summarize the fiscal year 2026 guidance framework. As we pivot capital allocation to returning cash to shareholders, the 2026 outlook assumes returning ~$2.2B through ~$1B share repurchases and ~$1.2B of dividends.

The following table shows the Company’s stock compensation and corporate and other expenses on an adjusted basis. The Company’s definition of adjusted stock compensation excludes integration-related stock compensation expense. The Company’s definition of adjusted corporate and other excludes corporate restructuring and related costs, first year purchase accounting related items and transaction fees, and certain gains, losses or impairments. This metric is useful for reconciling from total adjusted segment EBITA to the Company’s consolidated adjusted EBITA. |
