Chemicals
Linde plc delivered strong Q2 FY2026 performance with sales rising 9.3% year-over-year to $9.29B and diluted EPS increasing 11.3% to $4.15, driven by pricing power, volume growth in key markets, and ongoing productivity gains.
Key risk: Short-Term Working Capital Deficit
Linde carries current liabilities of $16.13B against current assets of $14.18B, resulting in a current ratio of 0.88. Although supported by strong cash flows and undrawn credit lines, working capital deficits require vigilant liquidity management.
