Ingersoll Rand Inc. (IR), valued at a market cap of $34.5 billion, is a globally diversified provider of mission-critical flow creation products and industrial solutions. Headquartered in Davidson, North Carolina, the company operates through two key segments: Industrial Technologies and Services, and Precision and Science Technologies.
IR is expected to release its Q2 2025 earnings after the market closes on Thursday, July 31. Ahead of this event, analysts project the company to report an adjusted EPS of $0.76, a decline of 5% from $0.80 per share reported in the year-ago quarter. The company has met or surpassed Wall Street's bottom-line estimates in three of the past four quarters, while missing the estimate on one occasion.

IR stock has crumbled 12.6% over the past 52 weeks, underperforming the S&P 500 Index's ($SPX) 13.6% gain and the Industrial Select Sector SPDR Fund’s (XLI) 20.6% return during the same period.
On May 1, Ingersoll Rand released its Q1 earnings, and its shares rose marginally. Its revenue rose 2.8% year-over-year to $1.7 billion, aided by recent acquisitions, but came in just below estimates. Moreover, adjusted net income declined 8.3% from the prior year to $293.2 million, also missing projections.
Analysts' consensus view on IR is moderately optimistic, with a "Moderate Buy" rating overall. Among 14 analysts covering the stock, seven suggest a "Strong Buy" and seven recommend a "Hold" rating. Its mean price target of $93 represents a 8.7% premium to current price levels.
