Positive Impact 4 of 5 earnings Written later

Celestica reported third-quarter 2026 revenue of $5.83 billion, up 83% from a year earlier, and adjusted EPS of $3.30, above its $2.88 to $3.08 guidance range. It raised its 2026 revenue outlook to $21.0 billion and adjusted EPS outlook to $11.55, and gave a first 2027 outlook of $40.0 billion in revenue and $21.50 adjusted EPS, which matters to shareholders because it signals higher expected earnings. The company cut its 2026 free cash flow outlook to $460 million from $600 million, citing working capital investments.

Key points

  • Q3 2026 adjusted EPS was $3.30 and GAAP EPS was $3.26, compared with $1.58 and $2.31 in Q3 2025.
  • 2026 outlook raised: revenue of $21.0 billion (previously $20.5 billion) and adjusted EPS of $11.55 (previously $11.30).
  • 2026 free cash flow outlook lowered to $460 million from $600 million, primarily due to working capital investments to support 2027 growth.
  • 2027 outlook: revenue of $40.0 billion and adjusted EPS of $21.50; a new normal course issuer bid is planned for Q4 2026 after the current one expires November 2, 2026.
