Wednesday, August 5, 2026

Consensus expects -$0.49 EPS on $24M revenue, and management did not disclose a Q2 guide in the source material after Q1 revenue of $17.3M missed its own guidance. Signals are mixed: contracted backlog and EPC approvals support the demand story, but the Q1 air pocket, sudden CEO change, and going-concern warning cloud it. FTCI could beat if MSA volume converts into purchase orders, or miss if the air pocket continues. The key number is Q2 revenue: below $17.3M would signal a deeper air pocket, and at or above $24M would signal recovery. The market could reward a sequential rebound only if management also gives a concrete MSA conversion update.

Consensus is $0.54 EPS on $1.97B revenue. Management's public guide is full-year operational — ALM revenue of $950M, data-center leasing above 100 MW, retained cash flow at least $300M ahead — not a Q2 revenue number. The Q1 beat, 17% organic growth, and hyperscale commentary suggest IRM could beat again, and it has beaten 7 straight quarters. The question is whether management raises or holds the full-year data-center leasing and ALM targets. Watch signed megawatts: if the number hasn't moved far past 32 MW, the above-100 MW guide could look aggressive.

The average analyst estimate (consensus) is $0.19 EPS on $87M revenue. Management guided Q2 revenue to $85M–$90M, so consensus sits near the midpoint. The signals suggest VPG could come in above the midpoint of its revenue guide; the bigger question is whether margins can support $0.19 EPS — more than double last quarter's $0.07 — on only a modest revenue step-up. The one number to watch is Sensors book-to-bill: if it drops below 1.0, the AI order surge story weakens; if it stays elevated, momentum likely continues.

Consensus for Q4 FY2026 is $2.31 EPS on $726M revenue. Management did not give a specific Q4 guide in the source material; last quarter it beat the high end of its own Q3 guide. Tungsten price pass-through and vertical integration suggest the company could beat consensus, but cash flow is the key risk: YTD operating cash flow through Q3 was $70M versus $130M a year earlier, and the company arranged $700M of additional liquidity. The question is whether management keeps the roughly $110M restructuring savings target and gives FY27 market expectations while being direct about cash flow. The one number to watch is Q4 operating cash flow — another deeply negative quarter could weigh on the stock even if EPS is strong.

Consensus for Q2 is EPS of -$0.40 on $9.68B of revenue, and last quarter reported EPS of -$0.49. Management has not given a numeric guide in the source material, but they did say data-center revenue would begin to ramp in Q2. With 3 beats in the last 4 quarters and no ecosystem data, the signals suggest they could match or beat the revenue consensus — but EPS depends on mark-to-market moves in the crypto treasury. The specific question is whether Data Centers revenue shows up as a real number, not de minimis, and whether management gives the promised Phase 2 financing update. The one number to watch is Data Centers segment revenue: if it is still immaterial, the AI ramp story could lose its first proof point.

Consensus for the upcoming report is $0.43 EPS on $1.47B revenue. BAM does not give quarterly EPS/revenue guidance in the source; management's public guide is 2026 FRE growth above the mid-to-high teens target and a record fundraising year. Bloom's beat/raise and the AI-fund momentum suggest BAM could beat, but the layer's pattern shows a high bar. The specific question is whether management confirms the Oaktree close, announces the AI Infrastructure Fund first close, and keeps the 'exceed' FRE language. Watch FRE per share: it was $0.48 last quarter versus the $0.43 consensus EPS; a print below $0.43 could signal fee growth slowing enough to challenge the full-year guide.

Consensus for the August 5 print is $0.16 EPS on $1.15B revenue. Management did not give a quarterly guide in the source material; it reaffirmed full-year 2026 adjusted EPS of $2.02–$2.07. The ecosystem and contract signals suggest NI could beat, but Q2 is seasonally light — Q1 already delivered 52% of the full-year midpoint — and this layer has tended to sell beats. The question is whether management updates the data-center targets, especially whether signed capacity grows beyond 4GW and whether Alphabet service is confirmed as started. The single number to watch is signed data-center capacity: if it moves up, the 2030 Genco target gets more support; if it stays at 4GW, the stock could stay flat even on a beat.

Consensus for the August 5, 2026 report is -$0.07 EPS on $148M revenue, with revenue just below the $150M quarterly average implied by management's at-least-$600M FY2026 baseline. Management's specific Q2 guide isn't in the source, but the baseline of $600M revenue and $60M adjusted EBITDA was called conservative on the last call, and SkyWater has beaten 5 of the last 7 quarters. The signals suggest they could beat, but the merger closed before this print, so execution commentary might be limited. The question going in is whether management still calls the $600M/$60M baseline conservative; the number to watch is whether quantum growth stays at 30%+.

Consensus for this print is $1.28 adjusted EPS on $3.58B revenue; last quarter was $1.24. Management reaffirmed FY2026 sales of $14.0B–$14.3B, adjusted EPS of $5.00–$5.20, and adjusted operating margin of 10.7%–10.9%. With seven straight beats and 50bps of margin expansion last quarter, the signals suggest BWA could beat again, but negative organic sales and the battery-segment drag make the guide the harder test. The question is whether management keeps the full-year guide intact or trims the battery outlook. Watch adjusted operating margin: Q1 was 10.5%, below the FY guide midpoint of 10.8%; a Q2 margin below 10.5% could make the full-year range harder to defend.

Consensus for the Q1 FY27 report is $0.07 EPS on $24 million revenue. Management's full-year guide is $95-97 million revenue, positive adjusted EBITDA, and roughly 30% gross margin — $24 million in Q1 would be one quarter of the $96 million midpoint, matching the company's promise that revenue would play out relatively evenly across the year. The signals suggest Orion could beat, given last quarter's 23% revenue growth and the strongest backlog in years. The main question is whether management keeps the FY27 range in place and what it says about data-center timing. The single most important number is Q1 revenue: below $24 million would put the even-revenue promise under pressure.

Consensus expects $0.15 EPS on $900M revenue. Management guided Q2 revenue to $875-905M and gross margin to 22.0% ± 50 bps. The ecosystem and backlog signals suggest VSH could beat at the top line, but gross margin remains the key swing factor given its history of 21% or lower. The question is whether management raises full-year revenue guidance and gives more color on AI design wins. The single number to watch is gross margin: if it lands below 21.5%, the stock could sell off even on a revenue beat.

Consensus expects $0.43 EPS on $1.76B revenue for Q2; management's explicit Q2 guide is not disclosed in the source material, but last quarter GFS delivered $1.634B, above the high end of its guidance, and has now beaten consensus seven quarters in a row. TSMC raising on AI demand, Intel raising capex, and Microsoft/Meta saying demand exceeds supply all suggest GFS could beat again, though expectations are high enough that a beat alone might not lift the stock. The question going in is whether management holds or raises the high-30s% CID growth guide and keeps the silicon photonics doubling on track. Watch silicon photonics: over $200M in 2025, implied ~$400M in 2026; if the Q2 pace is not tracking toward that, the stock could fall even on an EPS beat.

Consensus for the quarter is $0.80 EPS on $952M revenue, versus last quarter's $0.79 EPS on $940M revenue. Management's full-year guide is roughly $3.875B revenue and $3.55 EPS, and consensus sits slightly above both. With seven straight beats, a confirmed supplier raising guidance, and a supportive software layer, the signals suggest they could beat again. The main question is whether management raises the full-year guide again and whether ARR growth holds at 13% or better. Watch ARR: if it slips below 13%, the full-year ARR-growth guide could be at risk.

Consensus is $1.52 EPS on $550M revenue. Management's Q2 guide is 15–20% sequential EPS growth from $1.27, implying $1.46–$1.52, so consensus sits at the top; for the full year, management guides $6.00–$6.50 EPS with low-double-digit revenue growth, versus consensus of $6.42 EPS and $2,206M revenue. The signals — record backlog, defense RFQ growth, Honeywell's raise — suggest they could beat, but a beat may not be enough given the valuation. The question is whether Performance Materials shows the promised step-up and whether management keeps its upper-end EPS bias. Watch Q2 EPS against $1.46–$1.52; a print below $1.46 could be read as a miss against the company's own implied range.

Consensus for Q2 is -$0.25 EPS on $68M revenue. Management has not given a specific Q2 guide in the source, but it pre-announced record quarterly revenue and backlog. Those signals suggest revenue could beat consensus, but the EPS line is hard to predict because last quarter's EPS included large non-cash gains. The specific questions are whether adjusted gross loss keeps narrowing, whether management raises or holds the $300–400M full-year guide, and whether Line 2 is still on track for full production in Q4. The one number to watch is adjusted gross loss: Q1 was -$39M; if it does not narrow materially, the year-end positive-margin promise gets harder.

Consensus is for EPS of -$0.24 on revenue of $46M; that revenue would be 35% above Q1's $34M, so the HPC lease line would need to step up. Management has not disclosed a Q2 revenue guide in the source; its open promises include a Kentucky customer signing in Q2, CB-3 delivery by end of May, and CB-4/CB-5 in Q3/Q4. The signals suggest WULF could beat if HPC lease revenue accelerates and the Kentucky signing is confirmed; the key question is whether management can show the transition is on schedule. The single most important number is HPC lease revenue — $21M last quarter. If it does not grow materially, the $46M consensus could be hard to reach.

Consensus is modeling $0.35 adjusted EPS for Q2 (up from Q1's $0.15) and $2.65B revenue. Management's full-year guide is unchanged: 6–8% revenue growth and 15–20% adjusted EPS growth. CWK has beaten 6 of the last 7 quarters, and the competitor data suggests demand is strong enough for another beat. The key question is whether management raises the full-year guide; if it holds after a strong Q2, the stock could be capped. Watch Leasing growth — +17% in Q1 — and whether it stays double-digit; a sharp slowdown could make the AI-driven growth story harder to defend.

Consensus expects $1.80 EPS on $7.56B revenue. Management guided $7.3B–$7.6B in sales and $1.70–$1.80 EPS, so consensus sits at the top of both ranges. Q3's beat, strong backlog commentary, and NXP's results suggest Avnet could beat again, but the bar is already high. The key question is whether management updates the AI/direct data-center percentage above the 10–15% range and keeps a confident tone on memory pricing. Watch memory-pricing commentary — it drove roughly half of Q3 sequential growth, and a softer tone could make the top-of-range consensus look harder to exceed.

Consensus for the August 5 report is -$0.11 earnings per share (EPS) on $3.66 billion revenue. Management did not give a quarterly guide in the source material; for FY2027 it guided revenue flat to down 2% in constant currency, adjusted pretax income (PTI) of $600-700 million, and free cash flow of $400-500 million. The hyperscaler capex signals and the >1.1x book-to-bill suggest Kyndryl could beat the low revenue bar. The key question is whether management keeps its promise of another year of strong growth from Kyndryl Consult and hyperscaler-related revenue. Watch Kyndryl Consult book-to-bill: if it drops below 1.1x, that growth promise starts to look less solid.

Consensus for Q2 is $2.58 EPS on $1.58B revenue. Management’s latest full-year guide is about 4.5% sales growth, roughly 22.2% adjusted EBITDA margin, and $10.20–$11.00 adjusted EPS; consensus FY EPS sits near the middle at $10.64. The order momentum, backlog growth, and book-to-bill above 1.0 suggest they could beat the quarter, but margin pressure from tariffs, rare-earth costs, and OEM-heavy mix is the offset. The key question is whether management holds the full-year margin path while raising or keeping the revenue growth guide. Watch Q2 daily order growth: Q1 was +8.5% and April was +4.6% — a sharp sequential drop there could outweigh an EPS beat.

Consensus for Q2 is $3.33 EPS on $726M revenue; management has not given a specific Q2 dollar guide in the source, but it maintained FY2026 organic growth of 2-6%, adjusted operating margin of 19.1-19.7%, and high double-digit data-center growth. With seven straight beats and data-center sales more than doubling last quarter, the signals suggest WTS could beat again. The question is whether management keeps the full-year guide intact or raises it, and whether data-center growth stays at 'more than doubling.' The one number to watch is data-center sales growth: if it slips from 'more than doubled' to merely 'double-digit,' the AI narrative could lose momentum.

Analyst consensus (the average of estimates) for the August 5 report is $3.30 EPS on $3.69B revenue. Management's only disclosed guide is gross margin of 51-52% — the share of revenue left after direct production costs — up from 50.5% last quarter. The ecosystem signals and a 7-quarter beat streak suggest WDC could beat again. The questions are whether Cloud growth stays near +48%, whether gross margin lands inside the guided range, and whether management keeps the >25% exabyte CAGR outlook. The one number to watch is Cloud segment YoY growth: holding near +48% would support the acceleration story, while a drop toward +28% could raise doubts even if total revenue beats.

Consensus for Q2 is $0.10 EPS on $313M revenue; management guided revenue of $300M–$320M and Q2 adjusted gross margin at the higher end of the full-year 26–27% range. The backlog and book-to-bill suggest they could hit or beat the revenue range. The open question is margin execution, since Q1's 30.7% adjusted gross margin included one-time items and core margin was around 27%. Watch whether Q2 adjusted gross margin lands at the higher end of 26–27% as promised; a print below that would pressure the full-year cash-generative commitment.

Consensus is $1.59 EPS and $543M revenue for Q2, against Q1's $1.26 and $521.7M. No specific Q2 management guide appears in the source; full-year consensus is $6.14 EPS on $2,180M revenue. The signals — April daily sales at $9.0M, water at 66% of IPS, and more acquisitions closing — suggest DXP could beat, but the question is whether management makes that visible by quantifying any data-center/water number, updating the acquisition pipeline, and confirming receivable days are starting to fall. The one number to watch is management's Q2-to-date daily sales pace: if it stays near April's $9.0M-per-day level, revenue likely lands above $543M consensus; if it falls back toward January's $7.2M level, a miss looks more likely.

Consensus expects EPS of $0.30 on revenue of $433M; management guided Q4 revenue of $427–437M, EPS of $0.29–0.31, and operating margin of 22.7% ± 50bps. The data-center ecosystem and aerospace & defense signals suggest they could land near the upper end of the guide, but the stock is down 18.8% since last earnings despite a six-quarter beat streak. The question is whether management raises the bar for calendar 2026 AI momentum and whether NSE operating margin holds near the 18.7% guide. The one number to watch is NSE data-center mix — it was 'inching to the high-40s' in Q3; a stall or dip there could crack the AI story even if total revenue beats.

Consensus is $0.09 EPS on $988M revenue. Management did not guide Q3 revenue or EPS; it guided Q3 direct margins of $230M-$240M for North America, $12M-$32M for International, and $24M-$28M for Offshore. The signals suggest HP could land near consensus if North America hits the middle of its range and International does not worsen. The key question is whether management keeps the raised full-year North America rig-count outlook and holds to the International $45M quarterly run-rate target. Watch North America direct margin: below $230M could undermine the 'trough' call.

Consensus is $1.06 non-GAAP EPS on $308M revenue. Management guided $310M revenue and $1.00 non-GAAP EPS, so the revenue guide sits above consensus while the EPS guide sits about 6% below consensus. The signals — Q2 revenue came in above its $230M guide, and purchase commitments remain high — suggest revenue could land near or above $310M, but an EPS shortfall is possible even with a revenue beat. The specific question is whether management keeps its TCB over $100M and fourth-quarter sequential-improvement commitments intact. The single number to watch is TCB progress; a weaker TCB message would matter more than a small revenue miss.

Consensus for Q3 FY2026 is $0.39 adjusted EPS and $391M revenue. Management's full-year guide calls for 2.8-4.2% net sales growth, $360-365M adjusted EBITDA, an adjusted EBITDA margin above 24.5%, and free cash flow above 70% of adjusted net income. The raised EBITDA guide, Q2 margin strength, and specialty-valve backlog suggest MWA could meet or beat the quarterly numbers, but the weak first-half cash conversion and the market's pattern in this layer leave room for a negative reaction even on a beat. The specific question is whether management can show cash conversion recovering and hold the margin guide. Watch free cash flow: H1 came in at $16.5M, about 15% of adjusted net income; a Q3 that stays near that level could put the full-year conversion target in doubt.

Consensus expects $0.41 EPS on $127M revenue. Management does not guide revenue, margin, or full-year numbers, so there is no guide to beat; last quarter's EPS was $0.68, well above this quarter's consensus, but the source does not say why. Signals — Amazon's capex raise and the post-quarter lease/acquisition announcements — suggest the report could come in at or above consensus. The question is whether management signals a continued acquisition pace or treats June as a one-off. The number to watch is the dollar volume of new property purchases disclosed in the Q2 10-Q and press release; no new disclosed deals could leave the stock without a near-term catalyst.

Consensus expects $0.09 EPS on $200M revenue. Management's FY2026 guide is $840M-$900M revenue and $125M-$130M adjusted EBITDA, with roughly 15% margin and 60% cash conversion targets. Competitor results suggest demand could be healthy, but ONT has missed its last two reported quarters, so a beat is not established. The key question is whether management holds the full-year guidance and shows Q2 margin tracking toward 15%. Watch adjusted EBITDA margin: if it is not pacing toward roughly 15%, the $125M-$130M EBITDA guide could be at risk.

Consensus for the quarter is $0.67 EPS on $1.57B revenue. Management has not given a numeric Q2 guide in the source; the full-year message is double-digit revenue growth and strong earnings, and consensus of $6,305M implies about 10.9% growth over TTM revenue. With 4 beats in the last 7 quarters, 3.5x backlog coverage, and a confirmed competitor raising, the signals suggest TPC could beat. The question is whether management quantifies the 2027 outlook and keeps backlog near $19.8B. Watch the backlog number: a drop below that level could make the 2027 growth story harder to trust.

Consensus is -$0.29 EPS on $154M revenue for Q2, while Q1 revenue came in at $167M; management gave no explicit Q2 revenue guide. The signals — AMD expansion, an on-time first phase, steady engineering backlog, and a 42% revenue growth rate — suggest Riot could beat the revenue number, though EPS is noisy because Bitcoin mark-to-market swings dominate. The specific question is whether management keeps its forward targets intact: $37.8M annualized lease revenue exiting 2026, 160MW of Corsicana core-and-shell by Q2 2027, and no new common equity. The single most important number to watch is the data-center recurring lease run-rate; confirmation that the remaining 20MW of the initial AMD lease delivered in May is a related checkpoint, and a miss there would put the AI timeline in doubt.

Consensus for Q2 2026 is $0.53 EPS on $60M revenue, versus $0.23 EPS and $51M revenue last quarter. Management has not given a quarterly revenue guide in the source material; its FY2026 adjusted EBITDA guide is $210M-$230M. The raised guide and first data-center option payment suggest the company could beat the revenue number, but it has not beaten consensus in the last seven quarters, so the bar is real. The key question is whether management holds or raises the FY2026 EBITDA range and whether they update PowerBridge's option exercise. The single number to watch is the FY2026 adjusted EBITDA guide: a move below $210M could outweigh any quarterly beat.

Consensus for this quarter is $3.61 EPS on $926M revenue, versus $3.48 EPS and $914M revenue last quarter. There is no standalone Q2 guide in the source; the full-year guide is 7-8% sales growth, 19.0-19.2% operating margin, 13-16% EPS growth, and $580-600M free cash flow. The signals — 7 straight beats, record backlog, 1.3x book-to-bill, April orders up 46% YoY, and two confirmed partners raising guidance — suggest they could beat. The question is whether management holds the raised FCF range and confirms the Defense Electronics margin band. Watch book-to-bill: at 1.3x it is strong; if Q2 comes in below 1.0x, order momentum could look stalled.

Consensus expects $0.32 EPS on $117M revenue for Q2; management guided revenue to $115-120M with non-GAAP gross margin of 54-55%. The company has beaten estimates in 7 of the last 7 quarters, and the TXN, MPWR, and NXPI prints suggest the power semiconductor demand backdrop is supportive — so POWI could beat again, likely by the same modest margin as prior quarters. The specific question is whether management can maintain the Industrial growth narrative while staying credible on the longer-term AI data-center target. The one number to watch is Industrial segment growth: it was +23% YoY in Q1 and is the stated main driver; a sharp deceleration would make the full-year consensus revenue harder to believe.

Consensus for the quarter is $0.62 EPS on $146M revenue. Management did not give an explicit quarterly revenue guide in the source; the open full-year commitments are $12–15M CapEx, $2–3M restructuring, and a 21–23% tax rate. Record bookings, 1.14x book-to-bill, $251M backlog, and Industrial growth of +8% suggest they could beat. The question is whether management reiterates those full-year commitments and keeps data-center power-quality bookings growing. The one number to watch is Q2 orders: if book-to-bill slips below 1.0, the demand signal could be cooling.

Consensus for the quarter ending June 30 is $0.19 EPS on $44M revenue. Management guided to $42M-$46M revenue and $0.17-$0.21 EPS, so the consensus number sits inside the range. With six straight beats, a 1.3 book-to-bill, and a 39% sequential backlog jump, the signals suggest CLFD could land near or above the midpoint. The specific question for the call is whether management keeps the full-year $160M-$170M and $0.48-$0.62 EPS guide in place and confirms NOVA still ships in the second half. The one number to watch is book-to-bill: last quarter it was 1.3x; a print below 1.0 could signal order flow cooling before the promised H2 ramp.

Consensus for Q2 is $0.24 EPS on $77M revenue, up from $75M in Q1. Management hasn't guided Q2 specifically, but the full-year frame is 10–12% revenue growth, 80–82% gross margin, 28–30% adjusted EBITDA margin, and 12–14% EPS growth; consensus revenue sits near the top of that range. A10 has beaten in each of the last 7 quarters, so another beat is possible, but the layer pattern suggests a beat alone might not move the stock much. The specific question is whether management raises the 2026 revenue guide, something they said they'd revisit if Q2 momentum continues. The number to watch is product revenue growth: +22.3% last quarter, and a sharp slowdown could undercut the AI story while holding above 20% supports a raise.

Consensus for Wednesday's print is $3.20 EPS on $1.61B revenue, versus last quarter's actual $2.34 EPS. Management hasn't given a Q2 EPS guide; the FY2026 framework was maintained at $10/$20/$30 per kg lithium scenarios, with Specialties raised. Q1 momentum and 37% year-to-date lithium consumption growth suggest another beat is possible, but the layer data also says a beat alone might not move the stock. The specific question is whether management holds or raises the Specialties guide and keeps Energy Storage volumes in the roughly-flat range. The one number to watch is Energy Storage average realized price — about $17/kg in Q1; if it slips, margin outlook could be trimmed.

Consensus for this quarter is $2.18 EPS on $250M revenue; last quarter TPL reported $2.07 EPS on $237M revenue, and management has not given a formal Q2 numeric guide in the source material. The signals — one confirmed customer beating, a mostly positive layer, and record Q1 revenue — suggest TPL could beat, but the stock fell 4.1% after that record quarter, so a beat does not guarantee a rally. The question is whether management gives a concrete update on the Chevron power deal and the desalination timeline. The single most important number is line-of-sight wells: 20.7 net wells last quarter, up 6% sequentially and 11% normalized for longer laterals. A slowdown there could point to flat royalty production.

Consensus for the coming quarter is -$0.08 EPS on $1.50B revenue. Management has not given a quarterly number; the full-year FY2026 adjusted EPS guide is $2.85-$3.15, and the available next-fiscal-year consensus sits at $3.34, above the top of that range. UGI has beaten 5 of the last 7 quarters, and the layer's 73% beat rate suggests a beat is possible. The key question is whether management reaffirms the full-year guide. Watch the low end: if $2.85 moves down, that could signal weaker second-half expectations.

Consensus — the average analyst estimate — for the August 5 report is $8.42B revenue and $34.67 EPS. The source material does not include management's FQ4 guide; in the most recent reported quarter they guided to $4.4–4.8B and delivered $5.95B. With six straight beats, accelerating data-center growth, and a large RPO book, the signals suggest Sandisk could beat again. The question is whether management keeps raising the data-center exabyte forecast, confirms Stargate revenue, and holds gross margin near 78%. The single most important number is RPO: if it does not hold near $41.6B, the market could question the durability of the new contract model.

Consensus expects $0.20 EPS on $87M revenue for the quarter being reported August 5; the last reported quarter had $0.30 EPS. Management has not given a specific guide for this quarter in the source material — the open promises on the table are from the earlier June 2026 call, where they guided the December 2025 quarter to $65–70M revenue and net income above $2M, and actual results came in at $74.5M. The signals — seven straight beats, a 34% revenue growth rate, a record full-year revenue number, and a $25M mining contract announced after last earnings — suggest they could beat again, but the market mood in the power-systems layer argues the stock may not reward it. The single most important number is the full-year revenue guide: if management sets full-year guidance above the current consensus of $362M, that would signal confidence; a guide below it could re-rate the stock lower.

Consensus expects Q2 EPS of $1.19 on revenue of $688M. Management raised full-year 2026 guidance last quarter to $2.65B revenue and a $565M adjusted EBITDA midpoint, after a 6-of-7 beat track record. The backlog and ecosystem signals suggest they could beat again, but the power-systems layer shows even strong quarters can be sold. The specific question is whether management raises full-year guidance a second time and whether the Engineered Structures segment margin holds near its record 21.1%. The single most important number is that segment margin — a sharp sequential pullback could be read as peak-margin risk.

Consensus expects $1.84 EPS on $7.09B revenue for Q2 2026. Management has not given a specific Q2 revenue guide in the source material, but full-year production guidance is 1.44 MBOE/d and full-year midstream income guide is $1.1B. The ecosystem signals are mixed — one supplier raised, one lowered — so OXY could beat on cost control and midstream strength, but production and any Stratos timing update are the swing factors. The key question is whether management reaffirms or raises the full-year free cash flow and midstream targets. The one number to watch is midstream adjusted income: last quarter it came in ~$400M above guidance midpoint, and a repeat of that strength could support another guide raise.

Consensus for Q2 2026 is $0.42 adjusted EPS on $292M revenue, while management guided Q2 adjusted EBITDA margin of 28-31%. Cognex has beaten adjusted EPS estimates in each of the last 7 quarters, and its supplier raised guidance, so the signals suggest it could beat again. The specific question is whether management updates full-year profitability targets and keeps the 25% adjusted EBITDA margin run-rate goal intact. Watch the Q2 adjusted EBITDA margin: if it comes in below 28%, even a revenue beat might not be enough to keep the stock from sliding.

Consensus expects $0.41 EPS and $491M revenue for the quarter. Management has not given a specific quarterly revenue or EPS guide in the source; the public targets are upper-half 4–6% EPS CAGR and 600 MW of data-center load by 2030. The confirmed customer signals, plus the $201M already received, suggest BKH could at least meet consensus. The question going in is whether the 1.8 GW project has moved from a short-term reservation to a signed long-term generation facilities agreement — management called June 30 a working milestone, not a hard deadline. The one number to watch is the $201M CIAC: a signed definitive agreement would turn that refundable contribution from an option into contracted load.

Consensus EPS is -$0.13 on $9M revenue, but management has not given an explicit Q2 guide. Last quarter's revenue was $0.6M, so the consensus number implies roughly 15x that quarter's revenue, likely from a milestone or restarted front-end engineering and design (FEED) work. The ecosystem signals and CEO commentary on hyperscaler demand suggest NuScale could beat consensus, but the absence of a signed PPA is a large gap. The question is whether management can point to a binding TVA/ENTRA1 agreement or a named data-centre customer; without that, even a revenue beat might not hold the stock. The one number to watch is Q2 revenue — if it stays near $0.6M, it would suggest no new milestone work started.

Consensus for this quarter is $0.27 EPS on $240M revenue. Last quarter Ormat reported $1.30 EPS on $403.9M revenue, so the bar already assumes a sharp quarterly drop. The signals from Google, SLB, and Baker Hughes suggest the demand backdrop appears intact, but the swing factor is Ormat's own storage margin: Q1 came in at 59.1% versus a full-year guide of 35–40%. If storage margin holds above 40%, consensus could be conservative; if it drops to the guide, a miss is possible. The specific thing to watch is whether management raises full-year targets and what it says about Energy Storage gross margin.

Consensus is $1.95 EPS on $146M revenue, with EPS up from the $1.44 reported last quarter. Management guided revenue to $140-150M, with targets of 65% gross margin and 30% operating margin for Q2. The ecosystem signals suggest SiTime could land at or above the revenue midpoint, but the layer's negative average reaction says the stock response is not guaranteed. The specific question is whether management raises the full-year 'at least 80%' growth promise and confirms the 65% gross margin. The one number to watch is gross margin: it was 64% last quarter, and a print below 65% would put the 30% operating-margin target in question.

Consensus for Q2 2026 expects $0.81 EPS on $426M revenue, up from $0.65 reported last quarter and a segment-derived revenue total near $421M. Management's full-year guidance is $1.675–1.710B revenue, $2.90–3.20 adjusted EPS, 8–9% EBITDA margin, and $20–30M free cash flow; consensus sits near the midpoint on both revenue and EPS. The signals suggest PKOH could beat if Engineered Products holds its Q1 record pace and AI-related demand keeps growing, but the layer mood says even a beat can be sold. The specific question is whether management raises or only reaffirms the full-year guide, and whether the AI data-center run-rate is still approaching $150M annually. Watch Engineered Products revenue: Q1 was $126M, and management promised record 2026 revenues.

Consensus expects $0.38 EPS on $208M revenue. Management raised Q2 adjusted EBITDA guidance by 10% in April and gave an initial Q3 range of $80–$95M. The 6-of-7 beat record and the pace of new contract signings suggest SEI could beat, but the layer's pattern of selling strong results — and SEI's own 27% slide since last quarter — means a beat alone might not be enough. The question is whether management raises guidance again and keeps converting the remaining secured capacity into long-term contracts. Watch new gigawatts contracted: more than 1 GW was signed in February–April; a slowdown in that pace could weigh on the stock even if the quarter beats.

Consensus for the upcoming quarter is a $2.18 loss per share on $252M revenue - wider than last quarter's $1.29 loss - and no explicit management guidance appears in the source material. The signals, including the big backlog and book-to-bill at 1.0x, suggest VATE could beat. Notable: $252M is about 31% below last quarter's $364.8M, and the Broadcasting sale explains about $5M of that gap. The key question is whether management can show stable gross margin and continued 2027 backlog growth. Watch Infrastructure gross margin: it was 14.2% last quarter; a one-percentage-point drop on $358M of revenue is about $3.6M, or 18% of consolidated EBITDA.

Consensus expects $0.66 EPS on $133M revenue for the quarter ending June 2026, while management's specific guide is not in the source material. The company has beaten 6 of the last 6 quarters (or 6 of 7 depending on source) and last quarter delivered record revenue of $131M and record ARR of $184M, so signals suggest it could beat again — but the stock is priced for continued acceleration, with EV/EBITDA 57% above its historical median. The question is whether management raises the full-year guide and gives color on DANI adoption, since DANI launched June 30 and could be the narrative driver. The one number to watch is ARR: it was $184M at Q2-end, and a deceleration from the 25% YoY pace could disappoint even if revenue beats.

Consensus is $0.26 non-GAAP EPS on $180M revenue for Q2, at the midpoint of management's $170M-$190M revenue and $0.20-$0.32 EPS guidance. The $250M+ indium phosphide laser order, a follow-on NSA order, and rising customer deposits suggest Veeco could land at or above the midpoint. The question is whether management keeps the full-year $740M-$800M revenue and $1.50-$1.85 EPS targets, and whether it sticks with the roughly 50% compound semiconductor growth language. The one number to watch is gross margin — it came in at 36% last quarter against a 37%-38% guide; below 38% again could make the full-year EPS path harder.

Consensus for the quarter is $3.12 EPS on $833M revenue; management gave no quarterly guide in the source. For full-year 2026, management guided adjusted EBITDA of $1.75B–$2.05B and adjusted free cash flow of $980M–$1.18B, before Cornerstone. The signals — Amazon's capex raise, the strong Q1 EBITDA doubling, and the Cornerstone close — suggest Talen could beat the quarterly consensus and could raise or tighten the full-year guide. The specific question is whether the post-Cornerstone guidance update includes about $500M of annual EBITDA from those assets or shows offsets. The single number to watch is the updated 2026 adjusted EBITDA range: no change after adding Cornerstone could be read as caution, while a large increase would signal confidence.

Consensus expects $0.83 earnings per share (EPS) on $262M revenue for Q2. Management gave no explicit Q2 guide in the source; full-year revenue midpoint is about $1,048M, with consensus at $1,053.3M. With bookings strong and AI revenue accelerating, the signals suggest NOVT could beat revenue, but the main question is whether management holds or raises the full-year gross margin and cash-flow targets. The single most important number is the AI-linked revenue growth rate — 20% in Q1, with management expecting it to increase; a step down could weaken the AI narrative and the multiple.

Consensus for this report is $0.04 EPS (earnings per share) on $116M revenue; last quarter's EPS was $0.02. Management hasn't given a Q2 guide in the source, but the full-year revenue guide is $450M–$470M and the FY consensus is $465M. The signals — strong Q1 wins, a raised full-year guide, the NVIDIA award, and faster-than-expected data center growth — suggest they could beat. The specific question is whether management raises the full-year revenue and wins targets again, whether EBITDA margin holds as liquid cooling scales, and whether the combined grid/data-center bucket is still climbing toward $100M. The number to watch is the pace of that bucket; a stall would make the AI part of the story harder to defend.

Consensus expects $2.96 non-GAAP EPS on $1.21B revenue. Management guided Q2 total revenue to $1,200M ± $40M, with semiconductor at $550M ± $15M. The signals suggest MKS could beat again: it has beaten 7 of the last 7 quarters, and the one competitor result is positive for end demand. The specific question is whether management keeps the semiconductor ramp intact and gives a full-year picture that supports the AI story. The single most important number is semiconductor revenue — a print near $550M would validate the guide; a print below $535M could undermine the AI/WFE case.

Consensus for this report is about break-even EPS (-$0.00) on $819M revenue. Management did not give a specific Q3 guide in the source; it reaffirmed full-year revenue, ARR, and adjusted-EBITDA ranges. The signals suggest Fluence could land near consensus, but the market reward likely depends on the AI order count: management promised the first hyperscaler purchase order in Q3, and this call comes after that quarter ended. The single most important item is whether that order is now in backlog. If it is missing, the 62.8x forward P/E could be hard to support.

Consensus expects $0.81 EPS on $150M revenue for the quarter being reported. Management's full-year revenue guide is $450M-$500M, and consensus full-year revenue is $494.5M — near the high end. The signals are mixed: LEU volume fell 47% last quarter but prices rose 52%, while Technical Solutions grew 47%, and the company has beaten 4 of the last 7 quarters. The key question is whether management maintains the full-year revenue and capex guidance and gives specifics on the signed $900M DOE contract and the domestic build-out pace. The single most important number is SWU volume: another large drop could make the $150M consensus revenue hard to reach even with higher prices.

Consensus expects $0.36 EPS on $474M revenue for Q2 2026. Management has not provided a specific Q2 revenue or EPS guide in the source material; they reaffirmed full-year 2026 CAFD guidance of $470M–$510M and the 2027 CAFD-per-share target of $2.70 or better. The signals — reaffirmed guidance, a 20% larger capital plan, and accelerating AI-linked development — suggest CWEN could report in line or modestly above, but the layer's market mood and the 2-of-7 beat track record argue against confidence. The question is whether management uses this call to roll forward the 2031 CAFD growth target and confirm the two additional Texas hyperscaler PPAs it promised for later this year. The number to watch is CAFD: Q1 came in at $70M against a full-year guide of $470M–$510M; if Q2 CAFD is weak, it could pressure the full-year guide even if EBITDA looks fine.

Consensus for Q2 is $0.63 EPS on $437M revenue, sitting slightly above management's guide of $435M revenue and a $0.60 EPS midpoint (plus or minus $0.10). The ecosystem and layer signals are mixed: competitors beat, but the average post-earnings reaction in the layer has been negative. The signals suggest DIOD could beat the midpoint of its own guide, but the stock reaction is uncertain because expectations are elevated. The key question is whether management raises the full-year or three-year outlook, especially on gross margin and AI content. The single most important number to watch is gross margin — management guided 32.8% ±1%, and if it lands below 31.8% (last quarter's level), the earnings step-up case weakens.

Consensus expects $0.89 EPS on $962M revenue. Management guided Q2 revenue of $930–970M and non-GAAP EPS of $0.82–0.88, so consensus sits at the high end of revenue and slightly above the EPS range. Given 6 straight beats, 1.41x book-to-bill, 61% data-center growth, and a raised full-year capex plan, the signals suggest they could beat again and possibly raise the full-year outlook. The question is whether guidance for Q2 was already the peak or whether management extends the acceleration into H2. The one number to watch: the Data Center & Networking segment growth rate — if it re-accelerates above 61% YoY, it signals the AI demand wave is still building; if it decelerates steeply, the market could read the peak as already in.
