Strong Earnings Growth: Hubbell reported double-digit adjusted earnings per share (EPS) growth of 11% year-over-year (YoY) in Q2 2025, reaching $4.93, supported by strong organic growth in Grid Infrastructure (7%) and Electrical Solutions (mid-single digits).

Increased Full-Year Guidance: The company raised its full-year adjusted EPS outlook to a new range of $17.65 to $18.15, reflecting expected organic growth of 4% to 6% and adjusted operating margin expansion. This upward revision indicates strong confidence in sustaining financial performance despite macroeconomic challenges.

Operational Challenges and Cost Management: Hubbell is actively managing cost inflation driven by raw materials, tariffs, and transition to FIFO accounting methods. While pricing strategies have been implemented successfully, the dynamics in the inflationary environment remain challenging, particularly in non-residential and heavy industrial markets where performance is mixed.
