Carrier Global Corp (NYSE:CARR) reported its second-quarter 2025 earnings, delivering mixed results compared to analyst expectations. The company, a leader in intelligent climate and energy solutions, posted revenue of $6.11 billion, falling short of the consensus estimate of $6.22 billion. Earnings per share (EPS) came in at $0.92, slightly below the projected $0.92, though the difference is marginal.
Key Takeaways from the Earnings Report
- Revenue Miss: The $6.11 billion in sales fell short of estimates by approximately 1.7%, reflecting potential headwinds in demand or pricing pressures in its HVAC or Refrigeration segments.
- EPS In Line: Despite the revenue miss, EPS was nearly in line with expectations, suggesting effective cost management or favorable margin performance.
- Market Reaction: Pre-market trading showed a decline of nearly 4.84%, indicating investor disappointment, likely tied to the revenue shortfall.
Performance and Outlook
While the company reaffirmed its full-year guidance, the immediate market reaction suggests skepticism about near-term growth prospects. Over the past month, CARR’s stock had gained 8.84%, possibly reflecting optimism ahead of earnings, but the post-earnings drop indicates a reassessment.
Analyst estimates for Q3 2025 forecast revenue of $6.33 billion and EPS of $0.93, while full-year projections anticipate sales of $23.43 billion and revenue of $3.11 billion. The company’s ability to meet or exceed these figures will be critical in determining whether the current dip is a buying opportunity or a sign of deeper challenges.
