Read MoreHide Full Article

Key Takeaways

  • EnerSys is expected to report Q2 revenues of $967.6 million and adjusted EPS of $3.19.
  • Data center demand, defense applications and transportation market recovery are expected to support growth.
  • IRA tax credits and cost discipline may boost margins, while freight inflation and high capex pose risks.

EnerSys (ENS - Free Report) is scheduled to release second-quarter fiscal 2027 (ended September 2026) results on Nov. 11, after market close.

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the company’s second-quarter fiscal 2027 revenues is pegged at $967.6 million, suggesting an increase of 1.7% from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure. The consensus estimate for the company’s adjusted earnings is pinned at $3.19 per share, indicating a 24.6% increase from the year-ago quarter’s reported number. 

The consensus estimate for the company’s fiscal second-quarter earnings has remained steady in the past 60 days. The company has an impressive earnings surprise history, having outperformed the consensus estimate in each of the preceding four quarters, the average beat being 11.5%.

Let’s see how things have shaped up for ENS this earnings season.

Key Factors and Estimates for Q2

ENS’ Network & Infrastructure Solutions segment’s second-quarter performance is expected to have benefited from an increase in demand from data center, network communications and industrial customers.

The Precision Power Solutions segment has been reaping the benefits from an increase in demand for counter-drone and missile-defense applications. A rebound in the transportation market is likely to have supported the performance of the Industrial Mobility Solutions segment.

EnerSys is expected to benefit from IRA tax credits, U.S.-based production shifts and continued cost discipline. Operational efficiencies, working-capital improvements and stronger earnings are likely to have supported margin expansion and cash flow generation in the fiscal second quarter.

However, EnerSys remains exposed to trade-policy changes, freight inflation and restructuring charges, which are likely to have dented its bottom line in the to-be-reported quarter.

EnerSys has been making multiple investments for a while to boost growth. Although its investments hold up for long-term growth, ENS’ performance is likely to have been negatively impacted by high capital expenditures.
