TRIMBLE INC.
Next earnings Aug 4, 2026 · consensus $0.82 EPS, $971M rev
Last earnings -7.2% on 2026-05-06
Trimble's software pivot is lifting margins (gross 69.1%, op income +28.5%) but headline EPS fell on lost divestiture gains; full at 27.9x.
Operating income $592M · FY2026
Middling fundamentals and a rich price (~75% above fair value) leave little margin of safety — a wait-and-see.
Trimble is reshaping itself from a hardware-centric positioning/geospatial company into a higher-margin, recurring-software business, and the operating numbers show the transition working. FY2026 gross margin expanded to 69.1% and operating income rose 28.5% to $592M even as revenue slipped 2.6% to $3.59B — a classic mix-shift signature where lower-margin hardware/divested lines fall away and software/SaaS lifts profitability. Operating margin improved to 16.5%.
The headline that looks alarming is net income falling 71.8% to $424M and EPS dropping 71.1% to $1.76, but that compares against a FY2025 net income of $1.50B that was clearly inflated by one-time divestiture/portfolio gains (FY2021-FY2023 net income ran $311M-$493M). On an operating basis the business is healthier, not weaker. The balance sheet is sound — liabilities/equity of just 0.60x, long-term debt flat at $1.39B — and management returned aggressively to shareholders with $863M of buybacks (+393.4%), which drained cash to $253M (-65.7%) and shrank the share count 2.0%.
