Greenbrier Industries Reports Strong First Half Sales Growth

The Greenbrier Companies, Inc. reported robust sales growth in the first half of its fiscal year 2026, driven by a combination of increased demand for transportation equipment and strong operating performance from its rail and oil field segments. For the quarter ending June 30, 2026, revenue rose 15% to $1.34 billion, compared with $1.17 billion in the same period last year. Net income attributable to Greenbrier Industries, Inc. increased by 22% to $56 million, or $0.81 per share, from $46 million, or $0.67 per share, in the prior-year quarter. Sales growth was driven by a significant increase in demand for rail and oil field equipment, as well as higher sales of maintenance services and parts. The company’s transportation equipment segment reported strong sales growth, driven by increased orders for covered hoppers and tank cars. The Greenbrier Companies, Inc. is a leading manufacturer of railroad rolling stock, including boxcars, hopper cars, and tank cars, as well as oil field equipment, such as pumps and pressure vessels. The company also offers maintenance services, parts, and other support solutions to its customers in the rail and oil field industries. “We are pleased with our strong first half sales growth, which reflects the ongoing demand for our products and services,” said Edward J. Russo, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Greenbrier Industries, Inc. “Our team’s hard work and commitment to innovation have enabled us to deliver value to our customers and drive growth in our business.” For the full year 2026, the company expects revenue to grow by 10% to 15%, driven by continued demand for its products and services. The company also expects to maintain its strong operating margins, driven by cost discipline and operational efficiencies. Greenbrier Industries, Inc. will provide further guidance on its full-year outlook during its earnings call later this year.
