Greenbrier cuts fiscal 2026 guidance as Q2 earnings fall to $0.47 per diluted share

Negative Impact 4 of 5 guidance Written later

Greenbrier reported second-quarter fiscal 2026 revenue of $587.5 million and net earnings attributable to the company of $15.0 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, both well below the year-earlier quarter. The company cut its fiscal 2026 revenue and EPS guidance, attributing the change to a more gradual production ramp-up with deliveries shifting into early fiscal 2027, while raising its quarterly dividend 6% to $0.34 per share.

Key points

  • Q2 revenue was $587.5 million, down from $762.1 million a year earlier and $706.1 million in Q1; diluted EPS was $0.47 versus $1.56 a year earlier.
  • Fiscal 2026 revenue guidance was lowered to $2.4 billion-$2.5 billion from $2.7 billion-$3.2 billion; EPS guidance was lowered to $3.00-$3.50 from $3.75-$4.75.
  • Board raised the quarterly dividend 6% to $0.34 per share, payable May 11, 2026, to holders of record as of April 20, 2026.
  • Operating cash flow was $159 million in the quarter, and the railcar backlog stood at 15,200 units valued at an estimated $2.1 billion.
