Oshkosh Corporation's stock price fell sharply by 5.18% during intraday trading on Thursday. The significant drop followed the company's release of its fourth-quarter financial results and forward-looking guidance.
The decline was driven by Oshkosh reporting adjusted earnings per share of $2.26 for Q4 2025, which missed the analyst consensus estimate of $2.31. While quarterly sales of $2.689 billion exceeded expectations, the earnings shortfall and a year-over-year decline in net income contributed to negative investor sentiment.
More concerning to investors was the company's 2026 guidance, with Oshkosh expecting adjusted EPS of approximately $11.50, significantly below the FactSet consensus estimate of $12.34. This weaker-than-expected outlook for the coming year appears to be the primary catalyst for the stock's substantial intraday decline.
