Shortcut’s reasoning.
Q3 2026 guidance (Jul 27): revenue $5.25-5.55bn, adj. EPS $2.88-3.08, 8.4% adj. op. margin, ~20% tax; end-market outlook Comms ~+60%, Enterprise ~+190%, ATS mid-teens Y/Y.
Celestica beat its revenue midpoint by 1-9% and EPS midpoint by $0.11-0.30 in each of the last 4 quarters; model applies a haircut beat (+2.7% revenue vs midpoint) from end-market outlooks plus ~60% of realised end-market beats.
The $3.45bn equity offering closed Aug 7 (after guidance that assumed no issuance): +6.65m weighted Q3 shares (diluted ~122.6m) offset partly by ~$15m interest income on ~$3.39bn net proceeds; pro-forma guidance midpoint ~$2.92 (like-for-like guidance share basis 116.4m + weighted offering shares).
