Key points
The Q3 2026 consensus EPS of $1.467 is essentially flat versus Q2's actual $1.470 — a difference of about $0.003, i.e. roughly in line rather than a step up.
Q2 2026 came in ahead of its own consensus: EPS beat by $0.151 (+11.4%), revenue beat by $69.6M (+4.9%), and EBIT beat by $26.3M (+10.2%).
Consensus revenue for Q3 is $1,514.3M, implying +1.0% quarter-over-quarter growth off Q2's actual $1,499.1M, and +16.5% year-over-year.
Note the year-over-year growth rates embedded in the consensus: EPS +17.3% and revenue +16.5% YoY, both slower than the +35.3% and +20.8% consensus YoY rates used for Q2 — so the market is modelling a deceleration in growth momentum.

What to watch
The setup is "beat and guide" dependent: Q2's double-digit EPS beat shows the company has been clearing a conservative bar, so the key question is whether Q3's near-flat consensus EPS reflects a reset bar or genuine margin pressure.
The gap between the Q2 consensus YoY growth rates and the Q3 ones is the main swing factor — if revenue growth lands near the +20% pace seen in Q2 rather than the +16.5% consensus, the EPS print could surprise to the upside; conversely, a miss on the deceleration narrative would likely weigh more on the guide than on the quarter itself.
