Kennametal NYSE: KMT reported sharply higher fourth-quarter and fiscal 2026 earnings, citing pricing actions tied to elevated tungsten costs, modest volume improvement, restructuring savings and stronger conditions in several industrial end markets.
KMT's fiscal Q4 earnings and sales surge year over year, beating estimates as pricing, timing and broad end-market growth lift margins.
Although the revenue and EPS for Kennametal (KMT) give a sense of how its business performed in the quarter ended June 2026, it might be worth considering how some key metrics compare with Wall Street estimates and the year-ago numbers.
