What's Driving WTS's Business? Latest 10-Q Breakdown

AI-extracted from WATTS WATER TECHNOLOGIES INC's 10-Q filed 2026-08-06 — Q2 FY2026 (quarter ended June 28, 2026). Every figure is machine-verified against the filing text on SEC EDGAR.

Watts Water grew Q2 net sales 18.6% YoY to $763.2M on broad-based organic growth (12.2%) plus acquisitions, but gross margin slipped to 49.0% from 50.6% as acquisition dilution and lapping prior-year tariff pricing benefits offset price/productivity gains.

Biggest Revenue Drivers

Americas$585.0M+17.4% YoY

Favorable price realization and incremental volume driven by data center growth, plus $28.4M of acquired sales, partially offset by OEM/DIY product rationalization

Europe$124.6M+12.3% YoY

Favorable price realization and incremental volume plus $3.4M favorable FX, partially offset by OEM channel product rationalization

Biggest Revenue Drivers

Total revenue: $763.2M+18.6% YoY

Americas$585.0M+17.4% YoY

Favorable price realization and incremental volume driven by data center growth, plus $28.4M of acquired sales, partially offset by OEM/DIY product rationalization

Europe$124.6M+12.3% YoY

Favorable price realization and incremental volume plus $3.4M favorable FX, partially offset by OEM channel product rationalization

APMEA$53.6M+56.7% YoY

Growth in China (data center driven), Australia and New Zealand plus $5.9M acquired sales, partially offset by a decline in the Middle East

Largest Expense Items

Cost of goods sold$389.1M+22.4% YoY

Gross margin fell to 49.0% from 50.6% due to the dilutive impact of acquisitions and the prior-year benefit of tariff-related price increases ahead of related cost recognition

Selling, general and administrative expenses$214.5M+14.6% YoY

Higher compensation accruals ($5.4M), strategic investments ($5.0M), general inflation ($4.2M) and travel/marketing spend, plus $10.8M from acquisitions

Restructuring$5.6M+65% YoY

Primarily severance costs for immaterial cost-saving actions in the Americas and Europe segments

Watch Items from the Filing

Free cash flow conversion fell to 45.1% of net income for the first six months of 2026 from 60.1% a year earlier, driven by higher accounts receivable and inventory built to support tariff mitigation and demand.
Following the Supreme Court's ruling that IEEPA tariffs were unauthorized, the company is seeking refunds via CBP while new tariffs have been imposed under other regimes; full impact remains uncertain.
Data center demand is cited as a key driver of Americas and China/APMEA organic growth this quarter, indicating a concentration of growth in one end market.
Company estimates reasonably possible losses in excess of accrued contingencies of approximately $5.8 million, including exposure from the Chemetco Superfund site in Illinois.
APMEA segment grew net sales 56.7% YoY but remains only 7.0% of consolidated net sales, with growth partly offset by a decline in the Middle East amid regional instability.
