Bulls say / Bears say
ABB’s Q3 orders hit a record $12.1 billion, up 40%, and its book-to-bill reached 1.24. Management now expects low-teens comparable revenue growth for 2026, giving the strong order intake room to convert into sales. (ABB)
Operational EBITA rose 24% in Q3 and its margin widened to 20.8%, while year-to-date free cash flow increased 22%. That points to strong execution and cash generation alongside rapid growth. (ABB)
ABB’s new Infinitus direct-current portfolio is designed for the rising power needs of AI data centres, with potential to improve energy efficiency and reduce equipment footprint. It gives ABB a broader offer as customers consider higher-density power systems. (ABB)
Gross margin fell to 40.6% from 41.2% a year earlier, and ABB expects its operating margin to soften sequentially in Q4. This could temper the benefit of strong sales and order growth. (ABB)
Data-centre demand is a powerful driver, but it also leaves ABB exposed if AI infrastructure spending slows: the IMF has warned that reassessment of AI efficiency gains could dent investment. ABB has also reported softer customer activity in parts of process industry, limiting the offset from other markets. (Channel NewsAsia, ABB)
