In one sentence

ATI reported revenue of $1.4 billion for Q3 fiscal 2026, up 26% from a year earlier (ATI, Oct 29, 2026).

MeasureQ3 fiscal 2026Q3 fiscal 2025Change
Revenue$1,424 million$1,126 millionup 26%
Diluted EPS (GAAP)$1.37$0.78up 76%
Diluted EPS (adjusted)$1.46$0.85up 72%
Net income$190 million$110 millionup 73%

The quarter ended September 27, 2026 and ATI published the results on October 29, 2026. Revenue and diluted EPS are shown against Q3 fiscal 2025, the same quarter a year earlier, which takes seasonal swings out of the comparison. ATI reports EPS two ways: GAAP, under the accounting rules every US filer follows, and adjusted, which leaves out items the company considers outside its operating results. The release reconciles the two, and when they diverge, the reconciliation says why.

  • ATI's fiscal quarters end on a Sunday: Q3 fiscal 2026 ended September 27, 2026 and Q3 fiscal 2025 ended September 28, 2025. ATI reports sales, not revenue.

ATI revenue by segment

How ATI splits revenue in its own release, under its own labels, for Q3 fiscal 2026 against Q3 fiscal 2025. Indented lines are parts of the line above them.

Sales by segmentQ3 fiscal 2026Q3 fiscal 2025Change
High Performance Materials & Components$721 million$603 millionup 20%
Advanced Alloys & Solutions$702 million$523 millionup 34%
  • ATI's High Performance Materials & Components revenue was $721 million in Q3 fiscal 2026, up 20% from $603 million in Q3 fiscal 2025, 51% of total revenue.
  • ATI's Advanced Alloys & Solutions revenue was $702 million in Q3 fiscal 2026, up 34% from $523 million in Q3 fiscal 2025, 49% of total revenue.

Segment lines are the figures writers cite most often, because they show where the growth in a quarter came from. Companies redraw their segments from time to time and restate the prior year to match, so a year-ago figure here can differ from the one printed a year ago. When that has happened, the note above says so.

ATI's outlook for Q4 and full year 2026

Past ATI quarterly reports

Each quarter keeps its own page with the figures as reported, so a link to one stays pointed at the same numbers after the next report.

  • Q3 fiscal 2026 (this page), reported Oct 29, 2026

What ATI's revenue is made of

ATI makes specialty materials and parts, and aerospace and defense is most of its business: $994.5 million of the $1,423.7 million in Q3 2026 sales, or 69%. Commercial jet engines alone were $603.2 million, 42% of sales, up from $433.6 million a year earlier. Commercial airframes brought in $219.4 million and defense $171.9 million. (ATI Q3 2026 earnings release, Oct 29, 2026)

ATI reports two segments of almost equal size. High Performance Materials & Components (HPMC) had sales of $721.4 million, up 20%, which ATI attributed mainly to a 34% increase in sales of commercial jet engine products on strong demand and pricing; aerospace and defense was 94% of HPMC sales. Advanced Alloys & Solutions (AA&S) had sales of $702.3 million, up 34%, as its sales of commercial jet engine products almost doubled. (ATI Q3 2026 earnings release, Oct 29, 2026)

By product, nickel-based alloys and specialty alloys were 52% of ATI's sales in the quarter, against 44% a year earlier. Precision forgings, castings and components fell to 17% from 22%, titanium and titanium-based alloys to 16% from 19%, and zirconium and related alloys were 10%. (ATI Q3 2026 earnings release, Oct 29, 2026)

Outside aerospace, ATI's specialty energy sales rose to $80.4 million from $53.9 million and conventional energy to $82.3 million from $56.8 million, while electronics fell to $46.5 million and medical to $25.6 million. ATI's 10-K says no single customer accounted for more than 10% of sales, and international sales were approximately 42% of total annual sales. (ATI Q3 2026 earnings release, Oct 29, 2026; ATI Form 10-K, fiscal 2025, Feb 20, 2026)

ATI's backlog of confirmed orders was $4.3 billion at September 27, 2026, against $3.6 billion a year earlier, and approximately 75% of it is expected to be satisfied within the next 12 months. The 10-K describes long-term agreements with aerospace OEMs, including a titanium supply agreement with Boeing for airframe products. (ATI Form 10-Q, Q3 fiscal 2026, Oct 29, 2026; ATI Form 10-K, fiscal 2025, Feb 20, 2026)

What ATI's EPS includes

ATI's GAAP diluted EPS was $1.37, up from $0.78, and adjusted EPS was $1.46, up from $0.85. Adjusted results exclude $15.6 million of pre-tax special items: $14.4 million of restructuring and other charges, made up of $8.4 million of transformation-related costs, $2.9 million of losses on the sale of customer accounts receivable, $2.2 million of start-up and transaction-related costs and $0.9 million of restructuring costs, plus a $1.2 million debt extinguishment charge. After tax they cost $0.09 a share. (ATI Q3 2026 earnings release, Oct 29, 2026)

ATI's diluted share count fell to 138.4 million from 140.5 million. In the quarter ATI repurchased $70.0 million of stock at an average price of $199.62, retiring approximately 0.4 million shares, and had $425 million of repurchase authorization left. The effective tax rate was 21.0%, against 21.4% a year earlier. (ATI Q3 2026 earnings release, Oct 29, 2026)

ATI's AA&S segment EBITDA rose to $181.3 million, 25.8% of sales, from $90.4 million, which ATI attributed to higher pricing and volumes and a favorable mix. HPMC segment EBITDA was $167.3 million, 23.2% of sales, down from 24.2%, because of higher manufacturing and period costs including the ramp of commercial production of a new nickel-based superalloy. (ATI Q3 2026 earnings release, Oct 29, 2026)

Diluted EPS divides net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding in the quarter, plus the shares that options and other equity awards could add. Buybacks shrink that count and lift EPS for the same profit; share issuance and stock awards enlarge it.

Consensus and guidance at ATI

ATI gives quarterly and full-year guidance in its release, in adjusted terms. For Q4 2026 it guides adjusted EBITDA of $345M to $355M and adjusted EPS of $1.51 to $1.57. For full year 2026 it raised adjusted EBITDA guidance to $1,190M to $1,200M, from $1,135M to $1,185M, and adjusted EPS to $5.17 to $5.23, from $4.90 to $5.18, and kept adjusted free cash flow at $550M to $600M. (ATI Q3 2026 earnings release, Oct 29, 2026)

ATI said reconciliations of these forward-looking non-GAAP figures to GAAP are not available without unreasonable effort, so the release gives no GAAP EPS outlook. (ATI Q3 2026 earnings release, Oct 29, 2026)

A consensus figure is the average of the models published by the analysts who cover ATI, collected by a data provider and revised up to the day of the report. A quarter that lands above it says how expectations were set as much as how the business did, and the share price on the day also reflects the guidance and the lines no consensus covers.

The consensus figures on this page are Yahoo Finance's, as pulled on the date shown. Each comes with the number of analysts behind it; the smaller that number, the more one revised estimate can move the average.

How to check ATI's figures yourself

Every number on this page can be traced to a document ATI published. Checking one takes a couple of minutes, and it is worth doing before you quote a figure anywhere.

  • The results release is the document linked in the source line above. Companies publish it on their investor relations site at the moment results go out, and it carries the headline tables: revenue, operating income, net income and EPS for the quarter and the year-ago quarter.
  • The same release is filed with the SEC as Exhibit 99.1 to a Form 8-K under Item 2.02, usually on the day of the report. The SEC copy does not change after the fact, which makes it the safer thing to link when you cite a number.
  • The quarterly report (Form 10-Q) follows within a few weeks and carries the full financial statements, the segment note and management's discussion of what changed. The fourth quarter is covered by the annual report (Form 10-K) instead.
  • Restated comparisons are flagged in the notes on this page. When a company redraws its segments or changes how it adjusts EPS, it restates the year-ago column, so the year-ago figure in a new release can differ from the one printed a year ago. This page always uses the comparison in the newer release, because that is the like-for-like one.

FAQ

What was ATI's revenue last quarter?

+

ATI reported revenue of $1,424 million for Q3 fiscal 2026, the quarter ended September 27, 2026, against $1,126 million in Q3 fiscal 2025 (up 26%). The figures come from ATI's results release of October 29, 2026.

What were ATI's earnings per share for Q3 fiscal 2026?

+

Diluted EPS was $1.37 on a GAAP basis, against $0.78 a year earlier. On ATI's adjusted basis it was $1.46, against $0.85. The two differ because the adjusted figure leaves out items the company treats as outside its operating results; the release reconciles one to the other.

What guidance did ATI give for Q4 and full year 2026?

+

In its Q3 fiscal 2026 release, ATI said: "Raising full-year 2026 guide by $35 million to $1.195 billion; follows raise of $125 million last quarter We are raising our full-year outlook for adjusted EBITDA by $35 million. This follows the $125 million increase in our outlook just last quarter" That is the company's own outlook as of Oct 29, 2026, and companies revise outlooks as the quarter goes on.

When does ATI report earnings next?

+

We do not hold a confirmed date for ATI's next report. Companies announce the date on their investor relations site a few weeks ahead, usually with the time of the call.

Where does ATI's revenue come from?

+

ATI's High Performance Materials & Components revenue was $721 million in Q3 fiscal 2026, up 20% from $603 million in Q3 fiscal 2025, 51% of total revenue. ATI's Advanced Alloys & Solutions revenue was $702 million in Q3 fiscal 2026, up 34% from $523 million in Q3 fiscal 2025, 49% of total revenue. These are the lines of ATI's own "sales by segment" table for Q3 fiscal 2026.

How much did ATI's revenue grow last quarter?

+

Up 26% on the year: $1,424 million in Q3 fiscal 2026 against $1,126 million in Q3 fiscal 2025. That is the year-over-year comparison, the same quarter a year apart, so seasonal patterns in ATI's business do not distort it.

What is the difference between ATI's GAAP and adjusted EPS?

+

GAAP EPS follows US accounting rules and is the figure in the audited statements. ATI's adjusted EPS starts from it and removes items the company considers outside its operating results; the release lists each adjustment in a reconciliation table. For Q3 fiscal 2026 the two were $1.37 and $1.46. Analysts' EPS estimates are usually built on the adjusted figure, so check which one a headline compares before you repeat it.

Why is ATI's quarter called Q3 fiscal 2026?

+

ATI's fiscal year does not follow the calendar year, so Q3 fiscal 2026 is the quarter that ended September 27, 2026. When you compare ATI with a company that reports on the calendar year, line quarters up by the date they ended, not by their names.

Where do the ATI numbers on this page come from?

+

From ATI's own results release and its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 27, 2026, copied as printed, in millions of US dollars. Percent changes are worked out from those figures and rounded to a whole percent, which matches how the release states them. Nothing on this page is an estimate except the consensus, which is labelled with its source and date.
