Cummins Reports Strong Second Quarter 2026 Results; Raises Full-Year Outlook

•Record second-quarter revenues of $9.5 billion; GAAP1 Net Income of $932 million, or 9.9% of sales

•EBITDA2 in the second quarter was 17.5% of sales; Diluted EPS of $6.73

•Full-year revenues are expected to range from up 10% to up 13%, an improvement from prior guidance of up 8% to 11%

•EBITDA is now expected to be in the range of 18.0% to 18.5%, compared to prior guidance of 17.75% to 18.5%

•The company returned $501 million to shareholders in the second quarter in the form of cash dividends and share repurchases

COLUMBUS, IND. – Cummins Inc. (NYSE: CMI) today reported results for the second quarter of 2026.

“Cummins delivered record second-quarter results, reflecting robust customer orders for standby power for data centers and improving North American truck markets,” said Jennifer Rumsey, Chair and CEO of Cummins. “Rising demand and disciplined execution drove record performance as we continue to perform well in a complex macroeconomic environment. We are raising our expectations for full year performance and expect the second half of the year to be stronger than the first half. With greater regulatory clarity in on-highway markets in the U.S. and continued momentum across key markets, we are well positioned to deliver for our customers and generate profitable growth.”

Second-quarter 2026 revenues of $9.5 billion increased 9% from the same quarter in 2025. Sales in North America increased 8% while international revenues, led by growth in China, increased 12%.

Net income attributable to Cummins in the second quarter was $932 million, or $6.73 per diluted share, compared to $890 million, or $6.43 per diluted share, in 2025. The tax rate in the second quarter was 25.1% including $29 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, of unfavorable discrete tax items.

EBITDA in the second quarter was $1.7 billion, or 17.5% of sales, compared to $1.6 billion, or 18.4% of sales, a year ago.

2026 Outlook:

Based on its current forecast, Cummins is raising its full-year 2026 revenue guidance to be up 10% to 13%, due to stronger demand across several markets, particularly North America on-highway, China

construction and power generation. EBITDA is expected to be in the range of 18.0% to 18.5%, compared to our prior guidance of 17.75% to 18.5%, excluding the charges related to the sale of the fuel cell business in the first quarter.

Cummins plans to continue generating strong operating cash flow and returns for shareholders and is committed to our long-term strategic goal of returning 50% of operating cash flow back to shareholders.

“We’re raising our financial outlook for 2026 as demand continues to outpace expectations across several key markets,” said Rumsey. “North American truck markets continue to improve, while demand for data center power generation remains robust. Our market-leading positions and talented global workforce position us well to capitalize on these trends, meet our customers’ needs, invest in future growth and continue delivering strong returns for shareholders.”

Second Quarter 2026 Highlights:

•Cummins announced an increase in the quarterly common stock cash dividend from $2.00 to $2.20 per share. The company has increased the quarterly dividend to shareholders for 17 consecutive years.

•In May, Cummins hosted its 2026 Analyst Day and raised its 2030 financial targets, reflecting the strength of its strategy, stronger market positions and rising demand across key markets. The company also announced disciplined capacity and product investments to further strengthen its position in mining and power generation, building on areas where Cummins is already well positioned to deliver long-term growth.

•In June, Cummins announced an agreement with Circe Energy to provide a series of natural gas generator sets to support a scalable, behind-the-meter, prime power microgrid solution for their High-Performance Computing (HPC) data center in Texas. Deliveries are scheduled from 2026 through 2030 and will include Cummins’ HSK78 and QSK60 generator set platforms. The announcement reflects Cummins’ expanding role in supporting the North American data center market with natural gas-fueled generator sets and integrated microgrid controls designed to address power grid constraints, improve reliability and enable fast-start response capabilities in an era of unprecedented AI demand.

•Cummins announced updated Model Year 2027 North American on-highway product launch plans following the EPA's proposed changes to upcoming emissions regulations. The company will introduce its new X10 and X15 engines through a measured production ramp while maintaining select legacy product availability in 2027. The approach is designed to satisfy the proposed regulatory framework, support customer production schedules and provide additional time to ramp production in a disciplined manner that helps position the industry for a successful transition. Cummins recently showcased these new platforms through the nationwide Forever Rising Tour, providing customers with hands-on experience and direct engagement with the company's latest powertrain technologies.

Second quarter 2026 detail (all comparisons to same period in 2025):

EBITDA percentage for the company and some of the individual segments declined year-over-year. This was primarily due to higher incentive compensation, tied to expected record full year results. EBITDA percentage for the company is expected to be higher in the second half and full year 2026 compared to the same periods in 2025.

Presentation of Non-GAAP Financial Information

EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure used in this release and is defined and reconciled to what management believes to be the most comparable GAAP measure in a schedule attached to this release, except for forward-looking measures of EBITDA where a reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP measures is not available due to the variability, complexity and limited visibility of the non-cash items that are excluded from the non-GAAP outlook measure. Cummins presents this information as it believes it is useful to understanding the Company's operating performance, and because EBITDA is a measure used internally to assess the performance of the operating units.

Webcast information

Cummins management will host a teleconference to discuss these results today at 10 a.m. EDT. This teleconference will be webcast and available on the Investor Relations section of the Cummins website at www.cummins.com. Participants wishing to view the visuals available with the audio are encouraged to sign-in a few minutes prior to the start of the teleconference.

(1) Included intersegment sales, intersegment profit in inventory and unallocated corporate expenses. There were no significant unallocated corporate expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

(2) EBITDA is defined as earnings or losses before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and noncontrolling interests. We believe EBITDA is a useful measure of our operating performance as it assists investors and debt holders in comparing our performance on a consistent basis without regard to financing methods, capital structure, income taxes or depreciation and amortization methods, which can vary significantly depending upon many factors.

(3) Depreciation and amortization, as shown on a segment basis, excludes the amortization of debt discount and deferred costs included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Net Income as interest expense. A portion of depreciation expense is included in research, development and engineering expenses.

(4) In the first quarter of 2026, we sold our low pressure fuel cell business to a customer, cancelled future commitments and resolved certain claims against us with that customer resulting in a net payment by us of $175 million. These transactions resulted in a net charge of $199 million which is reflected in other operating expense, net in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Net Income.

Our effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, were 25.1 percent and 26.0 percent, respectively. Our effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, were 24.2 percent and 24.1 percent, respectively.

The three months ended June 30, 2026, contained net unfavorable discrete items of $29 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, primarily due to $17 million of unfavorable return to provision adjustments and $12 million of other net unfavorable discrete tax items.

The six months ended June 30, 2026, had an unfavorable discrete tax impact due to the $199 million loss on sale of business and settlement of current and future customer obligations for which no tax benefit was recognized. Other discrete items were net unfavorable $22 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, primarily due to $23 million of unfavorable return to provision adjustments, partially offset by $1 million of other net favorable discrete tax items

The three months ended June 30, 2025, contained net favorable discrete tax items of $3 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, primarily due to $4 million of favorable adjustments for uncertain tax positions, partially offset by $1 million of other unfavorable adjustments.

Reconciliation of Non GAAP measures - Earnings or losses before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and noncontrolling interests (EBITDA)

We believe EBITDA is a useful measure of our operating performance as it assists investors and debt holders in comparing our performance on a consistent basis without regard to financing methods, capital structure, income taxes or depreciation and amortization methods, which can vary significantly depending upon many factors. We believe EBITDA excluding special items, as noted in the table below, is a useful measure of our operating performance. This statement excludes forward looking measures of EBITDA where a reconciliation to the corresponding accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) measures is not available due to the variability, complexity and limited visibility of non-cash items that are excluded from the non-GAAP outlook measure.

EBITDA is not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP and may not be consistent with measures used by other companies. It should be considered supplemental data; however, the amounts included in the EBITDA calculation are derived from amounts included in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Net Income. Below is a reconciliation of net income attributable to Cummins Inc. to EBITDA for each of the applicable periods:
