AI brief of an SEC Form 8-K · Oshkosh (OSK)

Oshkosh Q3 EPS rises to $3.04, but 2025 adjusted EPS outlook is cut

Mixed Impact 4 of 5 guidance Written later

Oshkosh reported third-quarter 2025 net income of $196.2 million, or $3.04 per diluted share, up from $2.75 a year earlier, though sales fell 1.9% to $2.69 billion. The company lowered its 2025 adjusted earnings per share outlook to $10.50 to $11.00, down $0.50 at the low end, and cut its net sales expectation to $10.3 billion to $10.4 billion from $10.6 billion, which matters to shareholders because the lower outlook reflects weaker expected sales volume in the Transport and Access segments.

Key points

  • Q3 net income was $196.2 million, or $3.04 per diluted share, versus $2.75 a year earlier; results include a $0.30 per share benefit from resolving a multi-year U.S. federal income tax audit.
  • Q3 sales decreased $52.8 million, or 1.9%, to $2.69 billion, mainly due to lower Access segment sales volume.
  • 2025 adjusted EPS outlook is $10.50 to $11.00, down $0.50 from prior guidance on the low end; net sales outlook is $10.3 billion to $10.4 billion versus $10.6 billion previously.
  • Board declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.51 per share, payable December 1, 2025 to shareholders of record as of November 17, 2025.
