GNRC · Generac Q2 FY2026 earnings call record财报电话会记录

“We are now in the final stages of negotiations with this customer on terms, conditions, volumes, and timelines for 2027 and 2028 deliveries.”

“With the addition of the first hyperscale customer, our backlog for products sold to the data center market now stands at $1.6 billion, representing new orders of approximately $1 billion over the last 90 days.”

“Commercial and industrial segment total sales increased approximately 29% to $556 million from $431 million in the prior year quarter, including an approximate 6% net favorable impact from the combination of acquisitions, divestitures, and foreign currency.”

“Residential segment total sales decreased approximately 2% to $621 million as compared to $635 million in the prior year quarter.”

“Overall gross profit margin on a consolidated basis was 44.5% compared to 39.3% in the prior year second quarter.”

“Cash flow from operations was $121 million in the current year quarter as compared to $72 million in the prior year second quarter, and free cash flow, as defined in our earnings release, was $63 million as compared to $14 million in the same quarter last year.”

“Looking at our updated gross margin expectations for full year 2026, excluding the tariff recovery impact, we now expect gross margins to be near the low end of our previous guidance range of 38.5%-39.5%, given the higher sales mix of C&I segment sales in our forecast.”

“Including the $71 million of tariff refunds that are reflected in the second quarter, we expect gross margins for full year 2026 to be in the 40% range.”

“As a result of these factors, excluding the 150-basis point impact from tariff refunds, we are maintaining our previous guidance range for full-year 2026 adjusted EBITDA margins of 18.5%-19.5%.”

“To be clear, the $1 billion of orders that we've taken in the last 90 days, included in that number is about $700 million, approximately $700 million for the first hyperscale customer that we announced, and that's all for deliveries in 2027.”

“Oftentimes, what ends up happening, though, is you tend to see margin profiles of larger customers that are lower than that of our non-hyperscale customers.”

“If so, should we think that the mix shift could impact gross margins in the future if it's skewing towards more expensive manufacturing regions with the cost of engines going up?”
