Q2 2026 Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Sentiment|Positive
The call emphasized multiple meaningful positives — strong AMS/DRS momentum, record margin expansion, double-digit EBITDA growth, robust free cash flow conversion, raised profit expectations, and substantial progress toward closing the NCR Atleos acquisition — while acknowledging some near-term timing-related softness across regions, reduced FX tailwinds, outstanding regulatory/licensing items and a temporary leverage increase at close. Overall, the company presented confidence in continued organic acceleration in the back half, clear margin and cash conversion targets, and a constructive acquisition roadmap.Company Guidance
Solid Overall Revenue and Organic Growth
Total revenue increased 7% year-over-year, comprised of 4% organic (constant-currency) growth and a 3% foreign currency tailwind.
Strong AMS/DRS Performance
ATM Managed Services and Digital Retail Solutions (AMS/DRS) grew organic revenue 14% in the quarter, marking the 14th consecutive quarter of mid-teens or better organic growth; AMS/DRS revenue has more than doubled over the same multi-quarter period to over $1.5 billion, with $50 million of organic revenue growth in the quarter.
Record Margins and Profitability Expansion
Adjusted EBITDA rose 11% to $257 million with adjusted EBITDA margin at 18.5%, up 70 basis points year-over-year; operating profit rose $25 million (15% year-over-year) to $190 million with an operating margin of 13.6%.
Strong EPS and Profit Flow-Through
EPS from continuing operations was $2.13 for the quarter (income from continuing operations $88 million on 41.5 million diluted shares); organic revenue growth of $54 million converted to $21 million of incremental EBITDA (approx. 39% flow-through), driving margin expansion.
Robust Free Cash Flow and Conversion
Trailing 12-month free cash flow was $468 million with free cash flow conversion of 46% of EBITDA (above the company's full-year framework); year-to-date performance is ahead of prior expectations and management expects full-year conversion of 40%–45%.
Raised Profit Guidance and Q3 Outlook
With Q2 EBITDA above the prior midpoint, management raised full-year profit expectations; Q3 revenue guidance is $1.365 billion to $1.415 billion with adjusted EBITDA guidance of $263 million to $283 million (midpoint implies ~19.6% margin) and Q3 EPS guidance of $2.23 to $2.63.
Progress on NCR Atleos Acquisition
Acquisition timeline moved forward to early Q1; obtained >99% shareholder support; meaningful regulatory progress including early termination by U.S. antitrust regulators and clearances in jurisdictions including Brazil, India, Turkey, Colombia and major Euro-zone countries; money transmitter licensing >80% complete.
North America Margin Progress
North America trailing 12-month EBITDA margin reached 19.8%, approaching the company’s intermediate 20% target, with management articulating further opportunities to push margins beyond that level through increased density and network effects.
