Willis Towers Watson stock delivered adjusted EPS of USD 3.35 for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026, beating the USD 3.12 consensus by USD 0.23. Revenue reached USD 2.47 billion, up 9.10 percent from the prior-year quarter, according to Yahoo Finance.
Q2 growth strengthens the case
The July 30, 2026 results included adjusted EBITDA of USD 529 million, up 13.00 percent year over year, while the adjusted operating margin expanded by 100 basis points to 19.50 percent, Yahoo Finance reported.
Risk and Broking revenue rose 11.00 percent to USD 1.16 billion, while Health, Wealth and Career revenue increased 8.00 percent to USD 1.27 billion in Q2 2026. The two divisions therefore contributed growth across both major operating areas rather than relying on one business line.
