As Alphabet loses $500 billion in market value, five dividend growth stocks stand out for their strong earnings potential and solid fundamentals.

Gorman-Rupp's adjusted EPS grew 65% year over year in Q3, and its main growth driver is shifting from lower interest costs to operating income. The company paid down more debt than required over the first nine months of 2026, yet its cash balance still increased. Net sales rose 11.8% in Q3, driven by both higher volume and the price increases taken in the first quarter.

STX, STNG, HUBB and GRC announced dividend hikes, offering investors income opportunities as market volatility, inflation and interest-rate uncertainty persist.

Gorman-Rupp (GRC) could produce exceptional returns because of its solid growth attributes.

Gorman-Rupp (GRC) has been upgraded to a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy), reflecting growing optimism about the company's earnings prospects. This might drive the stock higher in the near term.

Dividend Kings have outperformed SPY YTD, rising 13.5% versus SPY's 12.32%, with a strong October rebound. Twenty-six Dividend Kings appear both potentially undervalued and offer long-term annualized expected returns of at least 10%. Dividend growth for the Kings in 2026 averages 4.65%, with recent increases from GRC, NWN, and RPM.

The Gorman-Rupp Company delivered a strong Q3, with 12% y/y revenue growth and double-digit beats on both revenue and EPS. GRC achieved broad-based end-market growth, significant margin expansion, and robust cash generation, boosting financial flexibility and operating leverage. Despite stellar results, I remain cautious due to GRC's long-term dependence on data center growth and recent sector volatility.

Gorman-Rupp (GRC) came out with quarterly earnings of $0.86 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $0.67 per share. This compares to earnings of $0.52 per share a year ago.
