On October 29, 2026, Linde plc submitted a Form 8-K to the SEC (Item 2.02), attaching as Exhibit 99.1 the press release with its results for the three months to September 30. The filing text contains no figures; the numbers below come from media coverage of the release.
According to those reports, sales reached a record of about $9.4 billion, a rise of 9%, and adjusted EPS of $4.59 was also a record. Growth was supported by higher pricing and volumes in the Americas and by strong demand from the electronics sector.
Assessments of the outlook differ. Linde updated its adjusted EPS guidance for the fourth quarter and for full-year 2026. Some outlets say it fell short of consensus in places, while others describe the guidance as raised. Industrial demand in Europe shows no sign of near-term recovery, which limits the upside.
One report said the shares rose about 3% after the results, while another headline mentioned a decline. The split suggests investors are still weighing the earnings beat against the more cautious guidance.
