In September 2026, the stock saw a 3.0% increase on September 22, though it experienced a 5.7% monthly decline, following the company securing a long-term contract to supply high-purity industrial gases for a major U.S. semiconductor expansion, involving a $250 million investment. In July 2026, Air Products declared a quarterly dividend of $1.81 per share and reported a fiscal 2026 third-quarter GAAP operating loss of $2.1 billion and a GAAP loss per share of $6.47, primarily due to approximately $2.9 billion in pre-tax charges from previously announced project exits; despite this, adjusted operating income rose 9% to $810 million, with adjusted EPS increasing 12% to $3.47, and sales grew 5% year-over-year to $3.2 billion. The company also raised its fiscal 2026 full-year adjusted EPS guidance to $13.39–$13.49 and is finalizing an agreement with Yara for renewable ammonia from the NEOM Green Hydrogen Project in Saudi Arabia. In June 2026, Air Products announced it would not proceed with the Louisiana Clean Energy Complex (LCEC) project, leading to a pre-tax charge of up to $2.9 billion, and also discontinued a zero-carbon liquid hydrogen facility in Casa Grande, Arizona, and other smaller clean energy projects. In April 2026, the company reported strong second-quarter fiscal 2026 GAAP operating income of $753 million and GAAP EPS of $3.19, both up over 130% compared to the prior year, with sales for the quarter increasing 9% to $3.2 billion. Air Products also raised its full-year fiscal 2026 adjusted EPS guidance to a range of $13.00 to $13.25.
