COPT Defense reported Q2 2026 results on July 27, 2026. Earnings per share were $0.40, ahead of the $0.33 estimate by 21.62%. Revenue was $188.8 million, slightly below the $189.4 million estimate. Compared with Q2 2025, EPS rose about 17.6% from $0.34 and revenue rose about 7.5% from $175.6 million. The $0.40 was the highest quarterly EPS since Q1 2023.

Most quarters in the table fall between about $0.27 and $0.40 per share, with some swings. The largest was Q3 2023, a loss of $1.94 per share against a $0.27 estimate, which left 2023 with a full-year loss of $0.67. Annual EPS was $1.53 in 2022 and $1.23 in 2024. The table has no Q3 2025 row, so 2025 is incomplete. Revenue climbed more steadily, from $142.6 million in Q2 2021 to $193.0 million in Q1 2026, the high in the table. COPT Defense beat the EPS estimate in 10 of the 20 quarters shown.

Q3 results came between October 26 and October 28 in each year from 2021 to 2024. That points to late October 2026 for the next report. It will show whether EPS stays near the Q2 level and whether revenue keeps rising year over year.
