Kaiser Aluminum reported Q2 2026 results on July 22, 2026. Earnings per share were $5.53, more than double the $2.66 estimate, a 107.75% beat. Revenue was about $1.3 billion, 12.46% above the $1.1 billion consensus. A year earlier, Q2 2025 earned $1.21 per share on $823.1 million in revenue.

Both figures are the highest in the table. They follow a $3.74 result in Q1 2026, which itself beat the estimate by 90.50%. First-half 2026 EPS of $9.27 already exceeds the full-year 2025 total of $6.04, the best of the complete years shown. Annual EPS was $0.78 in 2022, $2.74 in 2023 and $2.51 in 2024. The record was uneven before that: Q2 2022 and Q4 2022 were losses, at $0.03 and $0.45 per share. Quarterly revenue stayed between $722.0 million and $954.2 million from Q3 2021 through Q4 2025. Over the last 20 quarters, Kaiser beat the EPS estimate 11 times and missed 9.

Kaiser reported Q3 results between October 19 and October 25 in each of the past five years. That points to the second half of October 2026 for the next report, which will show whether earnings stay near the levels of the first half.
