Simplify's Take
What believers are saying
- Q2 2026 adjusted EPS rose to $1.46, beating estimates and raising guidance.
- Management lifted 2026 EPS guidance to $5.55-$5.70 after 23.3% EBITDA margins.
- Cornell and Roper add over $260 million revenue and 30%+ EBITDA margins.
What critics are saying
- China weakness and electric-metering timing forced 2026 revenue growth down to 2%.
- Restructuring charges reached $42 million in six months, with actions running through 2027.
- If Cornell-Roper integration stumbles after Q4 2026, Xylem's M&A premium evaporates.
What makes Xylem unique
- Pure-play water platform spans transport, treatment, measurement, and reuse across 150 countries.
- Evoqua plus Sensus create a deep installed base and recurring services revenue.
- Xylem's 2026 Cornell and WaterFleet deals deepen pumping and mobile-treatment breadth.

↑ 24%Global industrial giant Xylem chooses Swedish AI company Gimic. Växjö-based AI company Gimic has secured Xylem as a new customer. The global water technology company, with more than 23,000 employees and operations in approximately 150 countries, has chosen Gimic's AI-based technology for automated quality control at its production facility in Emmaboda. Gimic develops AI-based solutions that enable manufacturing companies to automate quality inspections that have traditionally been performed manually. Xylem has now chosen to use Gimic's technology for quality control of manufactured shafts for submersible pumps. Using cameras, image analysis and AI models, cracks, scratches, pressure marks and other defects can be automatically identified directly in the production line. This reduces the need for manual inspections and enables quality deviations to be detected earlier in the production process. "The fact that a global industrial company like Xylem has chosen Gimic is strong validation that our technology creates tangible value in industrial production. Xylem has high standards for both quality and efficiency, and we look forward to working together to automate parts of their quality control, reduce costs and further strengthen the quality of their production," says Therese Lundstedt, CEO of Gimic. Xylem is a global leader in water technology, developing products, systems and digital solutions to transport, treat, measure, analyse and reuse water. The company provides solutions across the entire water cycle and serves, among others, municipal water and wastewater operations, industry, energy and commercial buildings. Xylem has more than 23,000 employees and operations in approximately 150 countries. About Gimic Gimic develops AI-based systems for automated quality control and process monitoring in the manufacturing industry. Through proprietary AI models and software, the company can replace manual inspections with automated image analysis directly in production. This contributes to higher and more consistent quality, reduced waste and lower production costs. The technology is currently used by several leading industrial companies and is an enabler of increased automation and the fully automated factories of the future.

Xylem to acquire Cornell Pump and Roper Pump for $1.46 billion. Valued at 1.46 billion dollars, the acquisition adds engineered pumping technology to Xylem's Water Infrastructure segment, closing in Q4 2026. U.S. water technology group Xylem is set to acquire pump manufacturers Cornell Pump and Roper Pump in a $1.46 billion deal, buying the businesses from Indicor as it works to deepen its footprint in industrial and municipal pumping markets. The acquisition brings into Xylem's portfolio pumping technologies capable of handling tougher fluids, from slurries and solids to installations requiring strong suction lift performance. Cornell Pump and Roper Pump also carry patented self priming technology and expertise built up in sectors such as agriculture, food and beverage, energy, construction, mining and municipal water systems. Once completed, the businesses will sit within Xylem's Water Infrastructure segment. Matthew Pine, President and CEO of Xylem, linked the purchase to broader shifts in industrial demand. "The long-term demand drivers supporting our business continue to strengthen, creating new opportunities across industrial markets where water is increasingly critical to operational success," he said. "This acquisition expands our presence in key growth sectors and enhances our ability to help customers address evolving operational requirements. It also strengthens our portfolio in ways that support long-term value creation." On financial terms, Xylem said the $1.46 billion price equates to roughly 11.6 times projected 2026 EBITDA, once run rate cost synergies of $23 million and an estimated $170 million in tax benefits are factored in. The acquired businesses are projected to bring in more than $260 million in revenue this year, with EBITDA margins above 30 percent. Xylem expects the transaction to add to adjusted earnings per share from 2027 onward. Closing is targeted for the fourth quarter of 2026, pending regulatory clearance and other standard conditions. Centerview Partners and Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher are advising Xylem on the transaction, while Evercore, Goldman Sachs and Debevoise & Plimpton are advising Indicor. Xylem, listed on the NYSE as XYL, reported revenue of $9 billion in 2025 across its global operations.
