TDG traded near its 52-week low with a small pre-news decline of -0.41%, while key peers showed mixed, mostly modest moves (e.g., GD +1.44%, HEI +0.60%, LHX -1.10%). Only one peer in the momentum scanner (TXT +3.07%), so action appears stock-specific rather than a broad Aerospace & Defense rotation.

Pattern Detected

Recent strong fundamental updates (Q1 results, acquisitions) have twice been followed by negative 24h price reactions, suggesting a pattern of the stock selling off or underperforming on good news.

Recent Company History

Over the past few months, TDG news has centered on earnings, acquisitions, and capital deployment. On Feb 3, fiscal 2026 Q1 results showed double‑digit growth and raised guidance, yet the stock fell 9.31%. The Apr 7 completion of the Jet Parts Engineering and Victor Sierra acquisition for $2.2B also saw a modest negative reaction. Conference‑call scheduling headlines on Jan 26 and Apr 27 coincided with small gains. This quarter’s strong Q2 and guidance raise continue that growth and M&A narrative.

Analysis

This announcement highlights solid Q2 execution, with net sales of $2,544M, net income of $536M, EBITDA As Defined of $1,337M, and adjusted EPS of $9.85, all growing versus last year. Management also raised full‑year 2026 guidance and detailed major capital deployment: the $2.2B Jet Parts Engineering and Victor Sierra acquisition plus substantial share repurchases. Historically, prior strong updates, including Q1 2026 results, did not always translate into positive next‑day moves, so execution on guidance, debt levels, and integration progress remain key metrics to watch.

Key Terms

ebitda, ebitda as defined, gaap, senior subordinated notes, +4 more
8 terms
ebitda financial
"EBITDA for the quarter increased 18.4% to $1,289 million from $1,089 million..."
EBITDA stands for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. It measures a company's profitability by focusing on the money it makes from its core operations, ignoring expenses like taxes and accounting adjustments. Investors use EBITDA to compare how well different companies are performing financially, as it provides a clearer picture of operational success without the influence of financial structure or accounting choices.
ebitda as defined financial
"EBITDA As Defined of $1,337 million, up 15% from $1,162 million..."
“EBITDA as defined” indicates a company’s specific version of EBITDA — a measure of profit that excludes interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization — where the company adds or removes particular items in its calculation. Investors should treat it like a recipe tweak: those adjustments can materially change how strong cash generation or operating performance looks, so always check the exact items included to compare results fairly across companies.
gaap financial
"GAAP earnings per share were reduced for the twenty-six week periods ended..."
GAAP, or Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, are a set of standardized rules and guidelines that companies follow when preparing their financial statements. They ensure consistency, transparency, and comparability across different companies, making it easier for investors to understand and compare financial information accurately. This helps investors make informed decisions based on trustworthy and uniform financial reports.
senior subordinated notes financial
"a private offering of $1.2 billion of 6.125% Senior Subordinated Notes maturing..."
A senior subordinated note is a loan-like security that a company issues which pays interest and must be repaid, but sits behind (is subordinate to) the company’s most senior loans while still ranking above shareholders. For investors this matters because it offers higher interest to compensate for greater risk: in bankruptcy holders get paid after senior creditors but before equity, so recovery and price swings are tied to the issuer’s financial strength—think of it as being second in line for repayment.
term loans financial
"along with $0.8 billion of new Tranche N term loans maturing on February 13, 2033."
Term loans are long-term bank or lender loans with a set repayment schedule and fixed end date, similar to a mortgage or car loan for a business. They matter to investors because they create predictable interest payments and principal obligations that affect a company’s cash flow, credit risk and capacity to fund growth or return money to shareholders; heavier or expensive term loans can raise default risk and reduce future flexibility.
pma regulatory
"proprietary PMA and other aftermarket parts serving the commercial aerospace..."
PMA stands for Premarket Approval, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s highest-level review for high-risk medical devices. It’s a thorough evaluation to confirm a device is safe and effective before it can be sold, like a final safety inspection and license to operate. Investors care because receiving PMA can open a significant revenue stream, while delays or rejection can postpone sales and reduce a company’s value.
net sales financial
"Net sales of $2,544 million, up 18% from $2,150 million in the prior year's quarter;"
Net sales is the total money a company earns from selling its goods or services after subtracting returns, discounts, and allowances — like a store counting the cash it actually keeps after refunds and coupons. Investors use net sales to gauge true customer demand and the real size of a business’s revenue stream, since it forms the basis for profit margins, growth trends, and comparisons between companies.
adjusted earnings per share financial
"Adjusted earnings per share of $9.85, up 8% from $9.11..."
Adjusted Earnings Per Share shows how much profit a company makes for each share of stock, but it removes unusual or one-time items like big expenses or gains. This helps investors see the company's true ongoing performance, making it easier to compare how well different companies are doing over time.

CLEVELAND, May 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- TransDigm Group Incorporated (NYSE: TDG), a leading global designer, producer and supplier of highly engineered aircraft components, today reported results for the second quarter ended March 28, 2026.

Second quarter highlights include:

  • Net sales of $2,544 million, up 18% from $2,150 million in the prior year's quarter;
  • Net income of $536 million, up 12% from the prior year's quarter;
  • Earnings per share of $9.20, up 12% from the prior year's quarter;
  • EBITDA As Defined of $1,337 million, up 15% from $1,162 million in the prior year's quarter;
  • EBITDA As Defined margin of 52.6%;
  • Adjusted earnings per share of $9.85, up 8% from $9.11 in the prior year's quarter; and
  • Upward revision to fiscal 2026 financial guidance.

Quarter-to-Date Results

Net sales for the quarter increased 18.3%, or $394 million, to $2,544 million from $2,150 million in the comparable quarter a year ago. Organic sales growth as a percentage of net sales was 11.0%.

Net income for the quarter increased $57 million, or 11.9%, from $479 million in the comparable quarter a year ago. The increase in net income primarily reflects the increase in net sales described above, the application of our value-driven operating strategy, and lower non-cash stock and deferred compensation expense. The increase was partially offset by higher interest expense as a result of the increase in TransDigm's year-over-year gross debt balance.

Adjusted net income for the quarter increased 8.5% to $574 million, or $9.85 per share, from $529 million, or $9.11 per share, in the comparable quarter a year ago.

EBITDA for the quarter increased 18.4% to $1,289 million from $1,089 million for the comparable quarter a year ago. EBITDA As Defined for the quarter increased 15.1% to $1,337 million compared with $1,162 million in the comparable quarter a year ago. EBITDA As Defined as a percentage of net sales for the quarter was 52.6% compared with 54.0% in the comparable quarter a year ago.

"We are pleased with our team's performance and operating results for the second quarter," stated Mike Lisman, TransDigm Group's CEO. "Total revenue continued ahead of our expectations with double-digit growth across all three of our major market channels compared to the prior year's second quarter. Commercial aftermarket exhibited the highest growth across our three end markets, driven by our commercial transport segment growing 16% in the quarter. Commercial OEM market revenue increased in the double digits on a percentage basis as we continued supporting higher build rates at the OEMs. Our reported EBITDA As Defined margin for the quarter was 52.6%. Adjusting for acquisition dilution, the EBITDA margins of our base businesses improved nicely on a year over year basis and in line with our expectations. The team continues to execute our value drivers.

Shortly after the quarter ended, we completed the acquisitions of the previously announced Jet Parts Engineering and Victor Sierra businesses for $2.2 billion. We are excited to have them as part of TransDigm. Additionally, during the second quarter and continuing into the first week of April, we returned $800 million of capital to our shareholders through share repurchases, bringing the total amount of share repurchases in the fiscal year to date to approximately $905 million.

As we look ahead to the remainder of fiscal 2026, we have significant liquidity and financial flexibility to address any likely range of capital requirements and remain highly focused on our capital allocation.

As always, we remain committed to our operating strategy and the TransDigm value drivers. We look forward to the opportunity to continue creating value for our shareholders through the second half of fiscal 2026."

Acquisition Activity

Subsequent to the quarter, on April 7, 2026, TransDigm completed the acquisition of Jet Parts Engineering  and Victor Sierra for $2.2 billion in cash. Jet Parts Engineering is a leading independent designer and manufacturer of aerospace aftermarket solutions, primarily proprietary OEM-alternative parts and repairs. Victor Sierra is a leading designer, manufacturer, and distributor of proprietary PMA and other aftermarket parts serving the commercial aerospace end market — primarily the general aviation and business aviation sectors.

As previously announced on December 31, 2025, TransDigm has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Stellant Systems, Inc. from Arlington Capital Partners for approximately $960 million in cash. Stellant is a leading global designer and manufacturer of high-power electronic components and subsystems serving the aerospace and defense end market.

Financing Activity

During the quarter, on February 13, 2026, TransDigm successfully completed a private offering of $1.2 billion of 6.125% Senior Subordinated Notes maturing July 31, 2034 along with $0.8 billion of new Tranche N term loans maturing on February 13, 2033. TransDigm used the net proceeds from the offering, plus cash on hand, to fund the acquisition of Jet Parts Engineering and Victor Sierra which closed on April 7, 2026.

Subsequent to the quarter, on April 17, 2026, TransDigm completed an incremental debt offering of $1.5 billion of new debt consisting of an additional $0.5 billion of 6.125% Senior Subordinated Notes maturing July 31, 2034 and $1.0 billion of additional Tranche N term loans maturing February 13, 2033.

Share Repurchase Activity

During the second quarter of fiscal 2026, TransDigm repurchased 602,070 shares of its common stock at an average price per share of $1,201 for a total amount of $723 million. For the twenty-six week period ended March 28, 2026, TransDigm repurchased 687,282 shares of its common stock at an average price per share of $1,207 for a total amount of $829 million.

Subsequent to the quarter-end, TransDigm repurchased an additional 66,537 shares at an average price per share of $1,139 for a total amount of approximately $76 million. The total stock repurchases year-to-date is $905 million.

Year-to-Date Results

Net sales for the twenty-six week period ended March 28, 2026 increased 16.2%, or $672 million, to $4,828 million from $4,156 million in the comparable period a year ago. Organic sales growth as a percentage of net sales for fiscal 2026 was 9.3%.

Net income for the twenty-six week period ended March 28, 2026 increased $9 million, or 0.9%, to $981 million from $972 million in the comparable period a year ago. The increase in net income primarily reflects the increase in net sales described above, the application of our value-driven operating strategy, and lower non-cash stock and deferred compensation expense. The increase was mostly offset by higher interest expense and income tax expense.

GAAP earnings per share were reduced for the twenty-six week periods ended March 28, 2026 and March 29, 2025 by $1.02 per share and $0.83 per share, respectively, as a result of dividend equivalent payments made during each year. As a reminder, GAAP earnings per share are reduced when TransDigm makes dividend equivalent payments pursuant to its stock option plans. These dividend equivalent payments are made during TransDigm's first fiscal quarter each year and also upon payment of any special dividends.

Adjusted net income for the twenty-six week period ended March 28, 2026 increased 6.8% to $1,053 million, or $18.09 per share, from $986 million, or $16.94 per share, in the comparable period a year ago.

EBITDA for the twenty-six week period ended March 28, 2026 increased 11.9% to $2,436 million from $2,176 million for the comparable period a year ago. EBITDA As Defined for the period increased 13.9% to $2,534 million compared with $2,224 million in the comparable period a year ago. EBITDA As Defined as a percentage of net sales for the period was 52.5% compared with 53.5% in the comparable period a year ago.

Please see the attached tables for a reconciliation of net income to EBITDA, EBITDA As Defined, and adjusted net income; a reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities to EBITDA and EBITDA As Defined; and a reconciliation of earnings per share to adjusted earnings per share for the periods discussed in this press release.

Fiscal 2026 Outlook

Mr. Lisman stated, "We are pleased to once again raise our full year fiscal 2026 financial guidance to reflect our strong second quarter performance and incorporate the recently closed acquisition of Jet Parts Engineering and Victor Sierra. At the mid-point, we are increasing guidance for sales by $420 million, EBITDA As Defined guidance by $210 million, and adjusted EPS by $1.14. The large majority of this guidance increase is coming from stronger than expected performance in our base business, with a smaller amount of the increase derived from the inclusion of the recent acquisitions.

While increasing full-year guidance, we recognize there is uncertainty in the broader aerospace environment which, depending on the duration, may impact our markets, specifically commercial aftermarket. Based on the strong performance to date as well as our near-term outlook, we shifted our market channel guidance upward. This guidance excludes any contribution from the pending acquisition of Stellant.

The current environment is very dynamic and we will continue to monitor the markets closely as the year progresses."

TransDigm now expects fiscal 2026 financial guidance to be as follows:

  • Net sales are anticipated to be in the range of $10,300 million to $10,420 million compared with $8,831 million in fiscal 2025, an increase of 17.3% at the midpoint (an increase of $420 million at the midpoint from prior guidance);
  • Net income is anticipated to be in the range of $2,026 million to $2,106 million compared with $2,074 million in fiscal 2025, a decrease of 0.4% at the midpoint primarily due to additional interest expense relating to the financing activities completed during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 and the second quarter of fiscal 2026 (an increase of $58 million at the midpoint from prior guidance);
  • Earnings per share is expected to be in the range of $33.91 to $35.29 per share based upon weighted average shares outstanding of 58.0 million shares, compared with $32.08 per share in fiscal 2025, which is an increase of 7.9% at the midpoint (an increase of $1.17 per share at the midpoint from prior guidance);
  • EBITDA As Defined is anticipated to be in the range of $5,370 million to $5,470 million compared with $4,760 million in fiscal 2025, an increase of 13.9% at the midpoint (an increase of $210 million at the midpoint from prior guidance and corresponding to an EBITDA As Defined margin guide of approximately 52.3% for fiscal 2026);
  • Adjusted earnings per share is expected to be in the range of $38.83 to $40.21 per share compared with $37.33 per share in fiscal 2025, an increase of 5.9% at the midpoint compared to prior year (an increase of $1.14 per share at the midpoint from prior guidance); and 
  • Fiscal 2026 outlook is based on the following market growth assumptions:
    • Commercial OEM revenue growth in the low double-digit to mid-teens percentage range;
    • Commercial aftermarket revenue growth in the high single-digit to low double-digit percentage range; and
    • Defense revenue growth in the high single-digit percentage range.

Please see the attached Table 6 for a reconciliation of EBITDA, EBITDA As Defined to net income and reported earnings per share to adjusted earnings per share guidance midpoint estimated for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026. Additionally, please see attached Table 7 for comparison of the current fiscal year 2026 guidance versus the previously issued fiscal year 2026 guidance.

Non-GAAP Supplemental Information

EBITDA, EBITDA As Defined, EBITDA As Defined margin, adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share are non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release as supplemental disclosures to net income and reported results. TransDigm Group defines EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and defines EBITDA As Defined as EBITDA plus certain non-operating items recorded as corporate expenses, including non-cash compensation charges incurred in connection with TransDigm Group's stock option or deferred compensation plans, foreign currency gains and losses, acquisition-integration costs, acquisition transaction-related expenses, and refinancing costs. Acquisition transaction and integration-related expenses represent costs incurred to integrate acquired businesses into our operations; facility relocation costs and other acquisition-related costs; transaction and valuation-related costs for acquisitions comprising deal fees, legal, financial and tax due diligence expenses; and amortization expense of inventory step-up recorded in connection with the purchase accounting of acquired businesses. TransDigm Group defines adjusted net income as net income plus purchase accounting backlog amortization expense, effects from the sale on businesses, non-cash compensation charges incurred in connection with TransDigm Group's stock option or deferred compensation plans, foreign currency gains and losses, acquisition-integration costs, acquisition transaction-related expenses, and refinancing costs. EBITDA As Defined margin represents EBITDA As Defined as a percentage of net sales. TransDigm Group defines adjusted diluted earnings per share as adjusted net income divided by the total outstanding shares for basic and diluted earnings per share. For more information regarding the computation of EBITDA, EBITDA As Defined, adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share, please see the attached financial tables.

TransDigm Group presents these non-GAAP financial measures because it believes that they are useful indicators of its operating performance. TransDigm Group believes that EBITDA is useful to investors because it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties to measure operating performance among companies with different capital structures, effective tax rates and tax attributes, capitalized asset values and employee compensation structures, all of which can vary substantially from company to company. In addition, analysts, rating agencies and others use EBITDA to evaluate a company's ability to incur and service debt. EBITDA As Defined is used to measure TransDigm Inc.'s compliance with the financial covenant contained in its credit facility. TransDigm Group's management also uses EBITDA As Defined to review and assess its operating performance, to prepare its annual budget and financial projections and to review and evaluate its management team in connection with employee incentive programs. Moreover, TransDigm Group's management uses EBITDA As Defined to evaluate acquisitions and as a liquidity measure. In addition, TransDigm Group's management uses adjusted net income as a measure of comparable operating performance between time periods and among companies as it is reflective of changes in pricing decisions, cost controls and other factors that affect operating performance.

None of EBITDA, EBITDA As Defined, EBITDA As Defined margin, adjusted net income or adjusted earnings per share is a measurement of financial performance under U.S. GAAP and such financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income, earnings per share, cash flows from operating activities or other measures of performance determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, TransDigm Group's calculation of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to the calculation of similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Although we use EBITDA and EBITDA As Defined as measures to assess the performance of our business and for the other purposes set forth above, the use of these non-GAAP financial measures as analytical tools has limitations, and you should not consider any of them in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results of operations as reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

  • neither EBITDA nor EBITDA As Defined reflects the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements, necessary to service interest payments on our indebtedness;
  • although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and neither EBITDA nor EBITDA As Defined reflects any cash requirements for such replacements;
  • the omission of the substantial amortization expense associated with our intangible assets further limits the usefulness of EBITDA and EBITDA As Defined;
  • neither EBITDA nor EBITDA As Defined includes the payment of taxes, which is a necessary element of our operations; and
  • EBITDA As Defined excludes the cash expense we have incurred to integrate acquired businesses into our operations, which is a necessary element of certain of our acquisitions.

(1)


For the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended March 28, 2026 and March 29, 2025, the Tax adjustment represents the tax effect of the adjustments at the applicable effective tax rate, as well as the impact on the effective tax rate when excluding the excess tax benefits on stock option exercises. Stock compensation expense is excluded from adjusted net income and therefore we have excluded the impact that the excess tax benefits on stock option exercises have on the effective tax rate for determining adjusted net income.
