Margins Under Pressure At 7.3%

• On a trailing 12 month basis, Toro converted US$4.7b of revenue into US$339.8 million of net income, which works out to a 7.3% net margin compared with 8.8% a year earlier.
• Bears focus on that margin step down and the five year earnings decline of about 4.3% per year, and the latest numbers partly line up with that concern.
  • The Q2 2026 net income of US$145.4 million sits in the context of trailing 12 month net income of US$339.8 million, so recent profitability is concentrated in a single strong quarter rather than consistently high across the year.
  • At the same time, forecast earnings growth of about 10.5% a year assumes those thinner margins can rebuild. That is a stretch against the recent 7.3% margin and the history of falling earnings that the bearish narrative highlights.

TTM Revenue Near US$4.7b With Slower Top Line

• Trailing 12 month revenue is US$4.7b against Q2 2026 quarterly revenue of US$1.4b, and forecasts point to about 2.9% yearly revenue growth even as earnings are expected to rise around 10.5% a year.
• Consensus narrative talks about future premium growth from automation, electrification and productivity programs, and the current mix of modest revenue growth and heavier profit reliance makes that story quite dependent on execution.
  • Recent quarters show revenue between US$995 million and US$1.4b per quarter, so the move in earnings forecasts assumes more profit per dollar of sales rather than a big jump in sales themselves.
  • The AMP productivity program already running at US$86 million in annualized savings is a key support for that view, because without those cost savings the gap between 2.9% revenue growth and higher earnings growth would be harder to justify.

Bulls point to cost savings and product investments as reasons the current numbers only tell half the story, and you can see how that argument is built out in the 🐂 Toro Bull Case

P/E Of 25.3x And Mixed Valuation Signals

• At a share price of US$88.83, Toro trades on a 25.3x P/E versus peers at 21.1x and the US Machinery average at 27.2x. The cited DCF fair value is US$79.03 and the analyst price target is US$110.50.
• What stands out is how this valuation mix interacts with both bullish and bearish talking points on growth and balance sheet risk.
  • Analysts pointing to around 24.4% potential upside from US$88.83 to US$110.50 are leaning on forecast earnings growth of about 10.5% per year and expected margin improvement, even though margins have recently been 7.3% and earnings have declined on average over five years.
  • Critics highlight that the current price sits above the DCF fair value of US$79.03 and that the company carries a high level of debt, so any setback in those growth or margin assumptions could matter more when the P/E is already above closer peers.
