Generac Q3 Misses, Cuts 2025 Guidance

Generac reported third-quarter 2025 adjusted EPS of $1.83 and net sales of $1.11 billion, missing expectations and marking a 5% year-over-year sales decline. Residential product sales fell about 13% to roughly $626–627 million after an unusually light U.S. power-outage season, while commercial & industrial and international businesses showed growth. Management lowered full-year 2025 guidance to roughly flat revenue (from a prior 2–5% growth target) and trimmed net-income margin guidance to about 6%. It also outlined an adjusted EBITDA margin target near 17% and said it was trimming free-cash-flow conversion goals. Shares fell markedly in intraday and premarket trading following the results and guidance cuts.
