## Recent Catalysts (approx. June–September 2026)

**Q2 2026 earnings (reported ~July 20–21, 2026).** Mueller reported second-quarter 2026 sales of US$1,427.92 million and net income of US$249.66 million [[2]](https://www.webull.com/news/15332729324184576), and the stock reacted positively, with one source noting a ~+5% move following the report [DOC-1]. Half-year 2026 sales and net income rose meaningfully year over year to US$2,620.93 million and US$488.67 million respectively [[3]](https://simplywall.st/stocks/us/capital-goods/nyse-mli/mueller-industries/news/do-higher-first-half-eps-figures-reshape-mueller-industries). (Note: our internal notes conflict on whether Q2 beat or missed consensus — DOC-1 reports a miss versus a $1.15 estimate, while DOC-4 reports a beat versus a $1.09 estimate, though both agree on the $1.13 actual EPS.)
