Trinity Industries Q3 revenue rises 18% to $535 million; EPS falls to $0.27 from $0.38

Mixed earnings 2.027.01

Trinity Industries reported third-quarter 2026 revenue of $535.1 million, up from $454.1 million a year earlier, but diluted earnings per share from continuing operations fell to $0.27 from $0.38 and operating profit declined to $95.6 million from $118.6 million. The company said it expects full-year 2026 EPS to finish within its $2.20 to $2.40 guidance range, and it raised its expectations for full-year secondary market gains on railcar sales. Lower gains on lease portfolio sales and higher selling, engineering, and administrative expenses weighed on profit, partly offset by a gain on the sale of a manufacturing facility.

  • Revenue of $535.1 million vs. $454.1 million in Q3 2025; operating profit of $95.6 million vs. $118.6 million
  • Diluted EPS from continuing operations of $0.27 vs. $0.38; GAAP diluted EPS of $0.27 vs. $0.38
  • 2026 EPS guidance of $2.20 to $2.40 unchanged; company expects to finish the year within that range
  • On October 19, 2026, a subsidiary entered a $350 million term loan at SOFR plus 1.30%, maturing October 2031, to redeem notes carrying a 3.10% rate

Trinity Industries Q2 EPS $1.25 includes $132M gain; revenue falls to $485M

Mixed earnings Written later 2.027.01

Trinity Industries reported second-quarter 2026 diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of $1.25, up from $0.19 a year earlier, driven by a $132 million non-cash pre-tax gain on a railcar partnership transaction with Napier Park. Revenue fell to $485.1 million from $506.2 million, and the Rail Products segment's operating margin dropped to 1.3% from 3.0%, so shareholders are weighing a one-time gain against weaker underlying sales and margins. The company kept its full-year 2026 EPS guidance of $2.20 to $2.40.

  • Q2 2026 diluted EPS from continuing operations was $1.25, versus $0.19 in Q2 2025
