    Listen to the news
    • In early February 2026, EnerSys reported fiscal third-quarter results showing revenue of US$919.13 million and net income of US$90.37 million, alongside a quarterly cash dividend of US$0.2625 per share payable on March 27, 2026.
    • While headline earnings per share from continuing operations declined year on year, adjusted results set a company record and highlighted growth in higher-value areas such as data centers and defense, even as overall sales volumes softened.

    What Is EnerSys' Investment Narrative?

    To own EnerSys, you need to be comfortable with a business that is trading below many analyst fair value estimates, but whose growth story is shifting from broad volume to higher-value niches. The latest quarter underscored that tension: revenue of US$919.13 million and lower GAAP earnings came with record adjusted EPS and strong momentum in data centers and defense, while organic volumes slipped and the share price dropped more than 10% in a week. Management’s US$960 million to US$1,000 million Q4 sales outlook and the steady US$0.2625 dividend suggest the board still leans into the long-term thesis, yet softer Motive Power demand and recent negative free cash flow keep near-term execution risk firmly on the table. This earnings print does not break the story, but it does sharpen where the pressure points are.

    However, one key operational trend here is something investors should not ignore. Despite retreating, EnerSys' shares might still be trading 20% above their fair value. Discover the potential downside here.
