Latest analysis

Updated Nov 5, 2026

Rockwell Automation delivers 7% core Q4 growth and 22% full-year EPS expansion, initiating FY2027 guide of 6%-9% organic growth with 23% enterprise operating margin target.

Rockwell Automation closed fiscal 2026 with 7% core sales growth in Q4 (excluding IEEPA tariff refunds and Sensia dissolution), enterprise operating margin of 24.5% in the quarter, and adjusted EPS of $3.88, up 16% year-over-year — marking achievement of its 22% long-term enterprise operating margin target three years after setting it. Semiconductor and data center, now a combined vertical at ~10% of revenue, grew nearly 50% year-over-year in semi and is guiding to mid-teens growth in FY2027, while Software & Control posted 15% organic growth on 50% incremental margins. FY2027 guidance of 6%-9% organic growth, 23% enterprise operating margin, and $15.00 adjusted EPS midpoint reflects continued momentum in discrete and hybrid end markets, offset by deliberate conservatism on CapEx release in mining, food and beverage, and automotive.
