Zurn Elkay delivered 10% Q2 core-sales growth across all product categories, while adjusted EBITDA rose to $136 million and margin expanded to 27.7% from 26.5% year over year. (Zurn Elkay)
The Intellihot acquisition broadens Zurn Elkay into high-efficiency tankless water heating for healthcare, education, hospitality and commercial markets, offering a new adjacency with energy-efficiency and regulatory growth drivers. (SEC)
The company has substantial financial flexibility: net debt leverage was only 0.3x at June 30, 2026, while it repurchased $100 million of stock in the first half and expects at least $350 million of 2026 free cash flow. (Zurn Elkay)
Q2 operating income benefited from a $47.6 million tariff refund; management’s full-year 2026 EBITDA outlook excludes tariff-related refunds, making reported profitability less representative of recurring earnings and leaving exposure to future trade-cost volatility. (Zurn Elkay)
Growth momentum is expected to moderate: after 10% core-sales growth in Q2, management projects approximately 6%–7% core growth in Q3 and mid-single-digit growth in Q4. (Zurn Elkay)
The Intellihot acquisition adds execution and integration risk as Zurn Elkay enters an adjacent, earlier-stage water-heating category; management said the integration plan will unfold over several years, while Intellihot is expected to contribute only about $16 million of sales during the remainder of 2026. (SEC; Zurn Elkay)
