Earnings Calls

In the third quarter, Linde achieved $8.4 billion in sales, a 2% increase, driven by engineering demand despite stagnant global industrial activity. Operating profit rose 7% to $2.5 billion, yielding an operating margin of 29.6%. Earnings per share (EPS) reached $3.94, reflecting a 9% growth year-over-year. Guidance for Q4 projects EPS between $3.86 and $3.96, indicating 8% to 10% growth, while full-year projections set EPS at $15.40 to $15.50, excluding currency effects. A $150 million restructuring charge will result in a 1% to 2% EPS lift in 2025 from a planned 2% workforce reduction to combat economic headwinds.
