Why The Stock Moved

Qualitative Assessment

AI Analysis | Feedback

Watts Water Technologies (WTS) stock has gained about 20% since 10/31/2025 because of the following key factors:

1. Strong Fourth Quarter 2025 Financial Performance: Watts Water Technologies reported record-breaking results for the fourth quarter of 2025, significantly surpassing Wall Street's revenue and earnings estimates.

Adjusted diluted earnings per share (EPS) also saw a substantial rise of 28% year-over-year, reaching $2.62, well above analyst projections. This strong performance was further bolstered by operating margin expansion and robust free cash flow generation.

2. Optimistic 2026 Outlook: The company provided an upbeat outlook for the full year 2026, projecting reported sales growth between 8% and 12% and organic sales growth of 2% to 6%. This guidance was notably higher than previous consensus estimates, signaling management's confidence in continued growth.
