Cummins delivered mixed Q2 results, with revenue beats but EPS misses and soft profitability outside power systems. CMI raised full-year revenue guidance to 10%-13% growth and narrowed EBITDA margin outlook to 18%-18.5%, citing data center and China construction demand. Data center power generation and a recovering truck market are set to drive multi-year growth, offsetting segment softness.
