Emerson Electric Co (NYSE:EMR) Q3 2025 Earnings Miss Estimates, Shares Drop Nearly 7% in Pre-Market

Emerson Electric Co (NYSE:EMR) reported its third-quarter fiscal 2025 earnings, missing analyst estimates on both revenue and earnings per share (EPS). The company also updated its full-year outlook, though the market reaction in pre-market trading suggests investor disappointment, with shares down nearly 6.8%.

Key Financial Results vs. Estimates

• Revenue: Reported $4.553 billion, falling short of the consensus estimate of $4.643 billion.
• EPS: Came in at $1.52, slightly below the expected $1.5262.

While the revenue miss was more pronounced, the EPS shortfall was marginal, indicating that cost management may have partially offset weaker-than-expected sales.

Market Reaction

The pre-market decline of nearly 7% reflects investor concerns over the revenue miss, particularly as Emerson operates in highly competitive industrial technology and automation sectors. The stock had been relatively flat over the past month (+1.3%) and week (-0.05%), suggesting that expectations were already tempered before the earnings release.

Updated Outlook & Dividend Announcement

Emerson provided an updated full-year outlook, though specific figures were not detailed in the press release. Analysts currently estimate:

• Full-year 2025 revenue: $18.294 billion
• Full-year 2025 EPS: $6.048

The company also declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.5275 per share, payable on September 10, 2025, to shareholders of record as of August 15, 2025. This maintains Emerson’s long-standing dividend policy, a key factor for income-focused investors.

Looking Ahead

For Q4 2025, analysts project:

• Revenue: $4.972 billion
• EPS: $1.6377

The company’s ability to meet or exceed these estimates will be critical in determining whether the current sell-off is an overreaction or a justified correction.
