Key Figures

|---|---|---|---|---|

| Feb 10 | Earnings and guidance | Positive | -8.0% | Reported Q4 and full-year 2025 growth with higher 2026 guidance and dividend. |

24h Move is the share-price change in the day after each event; other market factors may also have contributed.
Recent news has mostly seen price moves align with the tone of announcements, with one notable divergence on earnings.
Over the last few months, Xylem has combined fundamental updates with capital return and thematic positioning. A $1.5 billion share repurchase authorization on Feb 25, 2026 saw a positive market reaction. By contrast, strong Q4 and full-year 2025 results with raised guidance on Feb 10 were followed by an 8.04% decline. Earlier, the company highlighted AI-driven water demand in January and announced investor conference participation, both with minimal price impact. Today’s World Water Day bell-ringing aligns more with brand and awareness efforts than with financial catalysts seen previously.
