    FY26 Organic Growth

    Next quarter
    Current21% (Q2 FY26), 20% (FY26 guidance)
    TargetSustained at 20% or higher

    Why it matters

    Organic growth significantly exceeds historical algorithm and peer performance, critical for valuation.

    On revenue, we now expect a range of $1.96 billion to $1.98 billion, an increase of $100 million at the midpoint versus our prior guidance. At the midpoint, that represents 24% year-over-year growth, including approximately 20% organic growth, which is an increase of 5 percentage points compared to our prior guidance.

    Q&A highlights

    6

    What are the underlying drivers of the 21% organic growth, particularly the contribution from new business wins, and why is the full-year outlook not higher given strong Q1/Q2 performance?

    Organic growth is driven by mid-single-digit new business, mid-single-digit pricing, and low double-digit market growth. Full-year guidance is based on 95% secured revenue from 6,000 monthly purchase orders, providing high confidence in the current outlook.

    “The new business remains at mid-single digit. The price that we're gaining remains at mid-single digits. So all of the delta that you're seeing is in the base business or the market growth rate, which is now coming in at low double-digit growth rate.”

    Detailed Narrative

    01

    Business Model & Playbook

    Arxis operates as an engineered components company, developing proprietary products that are deeply embedded in customer platforms for decades. This model is supported by proprietary technologies, broad diversification across end markets, and long platform life cycles, ensuring consistent performance. The 'Arxis Edge' playbook emphasizes a decentralized operating structure for quick decision-making, a systematic new business engine for identifying opportunities, and a repeatable acquisition engine.

    02

    Acquisition Strategy & Arcline Partnership

    The company has executed over 35 acquisitions in the past six years, with four announced year-to-date in 2026 (Micro-Tronics, Omnetics, MagCanica, Blue Line). The Arcline partnership is crucial, expanding Arxis's capacity to identify, diligence, and finance acquisitions while Arxis's internal teams focus on integration and value creation. This partnership was particularly instrumental in the Omnetics acquisition, which required public equity as consideration, a capability enabled by Arxis's recent IPO.

    03

    Financial Strength & Capital Structure

    Arxis significantly strengthened its balance sheet post-IPO. In April, $946 million of Term Loan B was repaid using IPO proceeds, reducing annual interest expense by over $70 million. An additional 25 basis point repricing in June further cut annual cash interest by $5 million. As of June 30, net leverage was below 2x, and the company maintained $1.1 billion in available liquidity, positioning it well for continued disciplined acquisition strategy.

    04

    Organic Growth Drivers

    The 21% organic growth in Q2 FY26 was broad-based across all three end markets and both segments. It was driven by a 'VPC algorithm' consisting of mid-single-digit growth from new business wins, mid-single-digit growth from pricing, and low double-digit growth from underlying market expansion. This diversified growth, coupled with 95% secured revenue for the year, provides strong visibility and confidence in the updated full-year guidance.

    05

    Mechanical Segment Performance

    The Mechanical Components segment demonstrated exceptional performance, achieving a 40.1% margin in the first half of FY26 and a 42.5% margin in Q2 FY26. This was attributed to strong operating leverage from revenue growth, continued operational improvements, and cost optimization initiatives. The segment achieved 20% organic growth over the last year with the same headcount, showcasing the effectiveness of decentralization and empowerment in driving a 67% conversion margin.
