Albany International posts Q3 earnings beat and raises outlook despite lower Q4 guidance

Albany International reported third‑quarter 2026 revenue of $349.53 million and GAAP earnings per share of $1.46, surpassing analyst forecasts of $325.8 million and $1.23 EPS. Adjusted (Non‑GAAP) EPS came in at $1.68, beating estimates by $0.20‑$0.45. The company also announced a Q4 2026 outlook of $0.65‑$0.75 EPS and $325 million‑$335 million revenue, which is below the consensus forecast.
