Aptiv stock was trading at USD 44.88 on the NYSE on September 23, 2026 at 11:13 a.m. ET, up 0.62 percent from the previous close of USD 44.61. The move follows a second-quarter earnings beat alongside lower full-year guidance.
Q2 EPS beats consensus
Aptiv reported adjusted Q2 2026 earnings per share of USD 1.63, exceeding the Zacks consensus estimate of USD 1.42 by 14.8 percent, according to Zacks. The result also increased 24.4 percent from the year-ago quarter, making earnings the strongest part of the report.
Revenue told a more restrained story. Aptiv generated USD 3.27 billion in Q2 2026 revenue, up 2.3 percent year over year but 1.4 percent below the USD 3.32 billion consensus mark, according to Zacks. The mixed result means margin execution and demand by region matter more than the headline EPS beat.
Guidance moves lower
For fiscal 2026, Aptiv now guides to revenue of USD 12.6 billion to USD 12.8 billion, down from its prior USD 12.8 billion to USD 13.2 billion outlook. Adjusted EPS guidance also fell to USD 5.60 to USD 5.80 from USD 5.70 to USD 6.10, with customer mix, production changes, launch delays and software timing cited in the report covered by Zacks.
The immediate investor tension is therefore measurable: Aptiv delivered a USD 0.21 adjusted EPS beat, yet reduced the revenue range by USD 0.2 billion at the lower end. Q3 guidance adds another checkpoint, with revenue projected at USD 3.12 billion to USD 3.22 billion and adjusted EPS at USD 1.25 to USD 1.35.
