Summary

EMCOR Group, Inc. reported strong financial performance for the second quarter and first half of fiscal year 2026. Revenues surged by approximately 20% year-over-year for the quarter, reaching a record $5.15 billion. This growth was driven by broad-based demand across all reporting segments, particularly in the United States electrical and mechanical construction and facilities services divisions, fueled by strong activity in the network and communications sector, including data center construction. Profitability also saw significant improvement. Operating income for the quarter increased by 32% to $547.3 million, with an improved operating margin of 10.6% compared to 9.6% in the prior year period.
