Danaher Q3 FY2026: adjusted EPS $2.11 beats, guidance raised
Danaher beat on the numbers management controls: adjusted EPS of $2.11 topped the $1.9359 consensus, revenue rose 8.5%, and free cash flow jumped 19.0% to $1.63 billion. The catch is that core growth was only 3.0%, with respiratory testing a 2.5-point headwind and acquisitions and divestitures subtracting 6.5 points. Read this quarter as a margin-and-cash story, not a demand story.
