What drove it
- HVAC organic growth reflected higher cooling-equipment volumes associated with increased data center demand, higher throughput from increased capacity, and higher heating-product volumes.
- HVAC inorganic growth reflected the acquisitions of Crawford United, Thermolec and Sigma & Omega.
- Detection & Measurement revenue growth reflected higher project volumes in aids to navigation and communication technologies.
- Detection & Measurement margin benefited from more favorable product mix, operating leverage including on SG&A costs, and cost optimization initiatives.
- Initial assembly of Olympus Max is underway at the Madison, Alabama facility.
- The acquisition of Neptronic expands the HVAC portfolio with complementary product categories that leverage established sales channels.
Concerns
- HVAC segment income margin decreased -260bps.
- HVAC margin was affected by start-up costs and related inefficiencies associated with capacity expansion initiatives.
- HVAC margin was affected by net tariff headwinds and inflationary cost increases.
- The respective 2025 period benefited from a more accretive mix and favorable project execution primarily within the cooling equipment business.
- Full-year guidance excludes incremental impacts of tariffs and trade tensions on market demand and costs subsequent to the date of the release.
What to watch
- Continued data center demand and higher throughput from capacity expansion initiatives.
- Ramp of Olympus Max production at the Madison, Alabama facility.
- Integration and contribution of the Neptronic acquisition.
- HVAC margin effects from start-up costs, capacity-expansion inefficiencies, tariffs and inflationary costs.

Management, verbatim
I’m very pleased with our second quarter performance, which reflected strong execution across both segments. We delivered significant year-over-year growth in revenue and operating income, driven by robust organic growth, continued demand across our key end markets, and meaningful contributions from our recent acquisitions. These results demonstrate the strength of our portfolio and the disciplined execution of our teams.
Gene Lowe, President and CEO
Looking ahead to the second half of 2026, we remain confident in the strength of customer demand and the momentum across our business. Accordingly, we are once again raising our full-year guidance, including Adjusted EBITDA* to a range of $630 to $660 million, representing an approximately 27% year-over-year increase at the midpoint.

Written by an AI language model from the company’s SEC earnings filing (Form 8-K Item 2.02, or Form 6-K for a foreign private issuer). Every figure was checked against the filing text, and a metric whose value, prior period and change do not add up is dropped from the metrics. The model can still misread a table, in the metrics or in the text, so check a number in the filing before you rely on it. Consensus estimates, price targets and share-price reactions are not shown because they are not in the filing. AI-generated research, not investment advice.
Background
SPX filed an 8-K with its Q2 2026 results and a full-year 2026 guidance increase, including segment-level outlook for HVAC and Detection and Measurement.
Ticker impact
SPX reported Q2 results and raised full-year 2026 guidance, including revenue $2.705 to $2.765B and Adjusted EBITDA $630 to $660M.
Likely near-term positive bias as traders reprice 2026 earnings power; watch for any skepticism around margin/capex and start-up inefficiencies.
The filing is a primary-source earnings and guidance update with specific numeric ranges and stated drivers (data center demand, Neptronic, segment performance).
Market effects
Supports the HVAC and engineered products read-through tied to data center capex demand and acquisition-driven growth.
Limited direct regional impact; operations and demand drivers are largely tied to US and global industrial end markets.
Neptronic-related HVAC expansion and data center demand are globally relevant, but the disclosure is company-specific.
Counterpoint
Margin headwinds from tariff and inflation plus capacity start-up inefficiencies could cap upside despite the guidance raise.
