Industrial automation giant Rockwell Automation announced on Thursday that the company’s senior vice president Matheus Bulho and vice president of investor relations and market strategy Aijana Zellner will attend the Wells Fargo Industrial and Materials Conference in Chicago on June 11, 2026 to participate in a fireside chat session.
This conference appearance comes just after Rockwell handed over its eye-catching financial report.
The company’s second quarter financial report for fiscal year 2026 released in early May showed that revenue increased by 12% year-on-year to US$2.239 billion, an organic growth of 9%; adjusted earnings per share reached US$3.30, a year-on-year increase of 32%, significantly exceeding analysts’ expectations of US$2.89.
Blake Moret, chairman and CEO of the company, said that strong demand in areas such as intelligent warehousing automation, data centers, semiconductors and energy has driven steady business growth.
The financial report shows that data center business sales more than doubled year-on-year, and e-commerce and warehousing automation grew by about 30%.
Driven by strong performance, Rockwell has raised its full-year guidance: it is expected that both reported sales and organic sales in fiscal 2026 will increase by 5%-9%, adjusted earnings per share will be raised to a range of US$12.50-13.10, and the corporate operating profit margin target will be increased to 21.5%.
In terms of business, the software and control segment performed particularly well, with sales reaching US$684 million, a year-on-year increase of 20%, and the operating profit margin expanded to 34.9%.
The sales of the smart device segment were US$1.008 billion, an increase of 13%, and the operating profit margin was 20.9%.
It is worth noting that the company has completed the dissolution of the joint venture with Sensia, which has a statement impact of approximately $100 million on full-year revenue, but is described as earnings per share neutral.
Management also reminded that rising memory, transportation and other costs and tariff uncertainty may bring pressure on profit margins in the second half of the year, which will be offset by improvements in pricing and productivity.
The fireside chat at this conference will start at 10:15 a.m. on June 11, Chicago time. Investors can watch the webcast through the investor relations page of Rockwell’s official website.
Rockwell Automation has always been in a leading position in the industry. Its attendance at the conference and its strong performance will undoubtedly attract the attention of more investors and industry insiders.
Its outstanding performance in various business fields has also set a benchmark for the development of the industry.
In the future, whether Rockwell can continue to maintain this growth trend and cope with challenges such as costs and tariffs deserves our continued attention.
