St. Louis, Aug. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ESCO Technologies Inc. (NYSE:ESE) (ESCO, or the Company) today reported its operating results for the third quarter ended June 30, 2026 (Q3 2026).

Operating Highlights

Q3 2026 Sales increased $43 million (14 percent) to $339 million compared to $296 million in Q3 2025. Q3 2026 organic sales increased $20 million (8 percent), and Maritime contributed $23 million of revenue growth in the quarter.
Q3 2026 GAAP EPS from Continuing Operations increased 31 percent to $1.26 per share compared to $0.96 per share in Q3 2025. Q3 2026 Adjusted EPS from Continuing Operations increased 38 percent to $2.20 per share compared to $1.60 per share in Q3 2025.
Q3 2026 entered orders were $410 million, with a book-to-bill ratio of 1.21. This resulted in record backlog at June 30 of $1.54 billion. Q3 2026 orders were lower than the prior year due to $364 million of acquired backlog related to the acquisition of Maritime in Q3 2025.
Net cash provided by operating activities from Continuing Operations was $193 million YTD, an increase of $105 million compared to the prior year period.

Bryan Sayler, Chief Executive Officer and President, commented, "Q3 was another strong quarter, highlighted by 14 percent revenue growth, 90 basis points of Adjusted EBIT margin expansion, and a 38 percent increase in Adjusted EPS.

"Year to date, we have delivered double-digit organic sales growth across our aerospace, Navy, Test, and Doble businesses. This broad-based strength underscores the long-term growth dynamics across our end markets. At the same time, our backlog has increased by over $400 million year-to-date driven by momentum across our business platforms. This combination of durable growth drivers, leading market positions, and record backlog, gives us confidence in our ability to continue delivering above-market growth and we are pleased to again raise our full-year FY 2026 guidance."

Segment Performance

Aerospace & Defense (A&D)

Q3 2026 sales increased $31.9 million (23 percent) to $168.2 million from $136.3 million in Q3 2025. Organic sales increased $9.2 million (9 percent) and Maritime added $22.7 million of revenue growth in the quarter. Quarterly sales growth was led by strong performance in commercial aerospace and Navy.
Q3 2026 EBIT increased $13.8 million to $50.4 million from $36.6 million in Q3 2025. Adjusted EBIT increased $11.2 million in Q3 2026 to $50.5 million (30.0 percent margin) from $39.3 million (28.8 percent margin) in Q3 2025. The 28 percent increase in Adjusted EBIT was driven by leverage on higher volume and price increases, partially offset by inflationary pressures and unfavorable mix.
Q3 2026 Entered Orders decreased $386.7 million (66 percent) to $195.7 million, as Q3 2025 contained $364.2 million in acquired backlog related to the Maritime acquisition along with $67 million in Block V.2/VI Virginia Class and $15 million of Columbia Class orders. Book-to-bill in the quarter was 1.16 driven by higher commercial and military aerospace OEM and aftermarket orders, resulting in record backlog of $1.1 billion.

Utility Solutions Group (USG)

Q3 2026 sales increased $7.6 million (8 percent) to $100.0 million from $92.4 million in Q3 2025. Doble sales increased by $12.9 million (17 percent) while NRG sales decreased by $5.3 million (29 percent). Sales growth in the quarter was driven by higher protection testing, offline test equipment, and services revenue at Doble, partially offset by lower renewables revenue at NRG.
Q3 2026 EBIT increased $0.5 million to $22.0 million from $21.5 million in Q3 2025. Adjusted EBIT increased $0.5 million in Q3 2026 to $22.3 million (22.3 percent margin) from $21.8 million (23.6 percent margin) in Q3 2025. The increase in Adjusted EBIT was driven by leverage on higher volume at Doble and price increases, mostly offset by EBIT reductions at NRG due to lower sales volumes.
Q3 2026 entered orders increased $21.4 million (20 percent) to $126.9 million (book-to-bill of 1.27), resulting in backlog of $189.4 million. Doble orders increased $26.4 million (30 percent) to $113.3 million as the business continues to experience broad based increases in demand from utility customers. NRG orders decreased $5.0 million (27 percent) to $13.5 million, related to the expiration of U.S. renewables tax credits.

RF Test & Measurement (Test)

Q3 2026 sales increased $3.2 million (5 percent) to $70.9 million from $67.7 million in Q3 2025. Sales growth in the quarter was primarily driven by higher U.S Test & Measurement (EMC), and medical and industrial shielding.
Q3 2026 EBIT increased $0.2 million to $10.9 million from $10.7 million in Q3 2025. Q3 2026 Adjusted EBIT increased $0.9 million to $11.6 million (16.4 percent margin) from $10.7 million (15.9 percent margin) in Q3 2025. The 8 percent increase in Adjusted EBIT was driven by leverage on higher volume and price increases, partially offset by inflationary pressures.
Q3 2026 entered orders increased $25.8 million (42 percent) to $87.0 million (book-to-bill of 1.23), resulting in record backlog of $248.6 million. Orders strength in the quarter was driven by industrial shielding projects and electromagnetic interference (EMI) filters for U.S. data centers.

Megger Acquisition

As announced on April 15, 2026, ESCO has agreed to acquire Megger Group Limited. Megger will become part of ESCO’s Utility Solutions Group, creating a business of substantial scale and expanding our capabilities as a valued partner to utilities worldwide. All filings for regulatory approval are underway and we continue to anticipate closing on the transaction in Q1 of fiscal 2027.

Business Outlook – FY 2026

FY 2026 Sales and Adjusted EPS Guidance Update:

Raising the lower end of FY 2026 Sales guidance and now expect Sales to be in the range of $1.30 to $1.33 billion (19 to 21 percent growth over the prior year).
Raising full year Adjusted EPS guidance to a range of $8.30 - $8.40 per share (38 to 39 percent growth), which reflects a midpoint increase of $0.70 per share from our initial November guidance ($7.50 - $7.80) and $0.22 per share from our more recent May guidance update of ($8.00 - $8.25).
Q4’26 Adjusted EPS is expected to be in the range of $2.55 - $2.65 per share (10 to 14 percent growth compared to Q4’25 Adjusted EPS).

Dividend Payment

The next quarterly cash dividend of $0.08 per share will be paid on October 15, 2026 to stockholders of record on October 1, 2026.

Forward-Looking Statements

Statements in this press release regarding Management’s intentions, expectations and guidance for fiscal 2026, including restructuring and cost reduction actions, sales, orders, revenues, margin, earnings, Adjusted EPS, acquisition related amortization, and any other statements which are not strictly historical, are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. securities laws.

Investors are cautioned that such statements are only predictions and speak only as of the date of this release, and the Company undertakes no duty to update them except as may be required by applicable laws or regulations. The Company’s actual results in the future may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements due to risks and uncertainties that exist in the Company’s operations and business environment including but not limited to those described in Item 1A, "Risk Factors", of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025 and the following: the impacts of climate change and related regulation of greenhouse gases; the impacts of labor disputes, civil disorder, wars including the conflicts involving Iran and Lebanon, elections, political changes, tariffs and trade disputes, terrorist activities, cyberattacks or natural disasters on the Company’s operations and those of the Company’s customers and suppliers; disruptions in manufacturing or delivery arrangements due to shortages or unavailability of materials or components; restrictions or closures of critical supply routes such as the Strait of Hormuz; other supply chain disruptions; inability to access work sites; the timing and content of future contract awards or customer orders; the timely appropriation, allocation and availability of Government funds; the termination for convenience of Government and other customer contracts or orders; weakening of economic conditions in served markets; the success of the Company’s competitors; changes in customer demands or customer insolvencies; competition; intellectual property rights; technical difficulties or data breaches; the availability of acquisitions; delivery delays or defaults by customers; performance issues with key customers, suppliers and subcontractors; material changes in the costs and availability of certain raw materials; material changes in the cost of credit; changes in laws and regulations including but not limited to changes in accounting standards and taxation; changes in interest, inflation and employment rates; costs relating to environmental matters arising from current or former facilities; uncertainty regarding the ultimate resolution of current disputes, claims, litigation or arbitration; and the integration and performance of acquired businesses.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The financial measures EBIT, Adjusted EBIT, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EPS are presented in this press release. The Company defines "EBIT" as earnings before interest and taxes, "EBITDA" as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, "Adjusted EBIT" and "Adjusted EBITDA" as excluding the net impact of the items described in the attached Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures, and "Adjusted EPS" as GAAP earnings per share excluding the net impact of the items described and reconciled in the attached Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.

EBIT, Adjusted EBIT, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EPS are not recognized in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). However, Management believes EBIT, Adjusted EBIT, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA are useful in assessing the operational profitability of the Company’s business segments because they exclude interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, which are generally accounted for across the entire Company on a consolidated basis. EBIT is also one of the measures used by Management in determining resource allocations within the Company as well as incentive compensation. The presentation of EBIT, Adjusted EBIT, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EPS provides important supplemental information to investors by facilitating comparisons with other companies, many of which use similar non-GAAP financial measures to supplement their GAAP results. The use of non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to replace any measures of performance determined in accordance with GAAP.
