Reported: 2026-06-06

The Toro Company

TTC Q2 2026

Reported: 2026-06-06

Toro’s shares fell 4.1% following earnings as investor optimism waned due to a cautious outlook, particularly reflected in the moderated full-year sales growth guidance and margin pressures despite solid margin expansion and strong free cash flow.

Adjusted operating margins improved 70 basis points to 14.4%, the highest in three years, supported by the AMP productivity program and strategic cost reductions.
Free cash flow soared to $266 million, up $181 million year-over-year, resulting in a 125% free cash flow conversion rate and enabling $361 million in shareholder returns in H1.
Inventory reductions continue, with professional segment inventories normalized but residential and landscape contractor remain below target, indicating some supply constraints or cautious channel stocking.
Guidance was raised for full-year sales growth to 4%–6.5%, a deceleration from recent top-line momentum, and adjusted EPS guidance was modestly increased to $4.50–$4.62, reflecting a more cautious outlook amid macro uncertainties and inflationary headwinds.
