Commentary

Corning delivered outstanding 2025 results with full-year core sales of $16.41B (+13% YoY) and core EPS of $2.52 (+29% YoY), exceeding its Springboard Plan targets. Growth was broadly driven by the Optical Communications segment (AI/data center hyperscaler demand) and a new U.S.-made solar business that ramped sharply in 2025. Q1 2026 accelerated to +18% YoY revenue growth with two new hyperscaler megadeals announced and Solar sales up 80% YoY, prompting management to upgrade the Springboard Plan for even faster growth. The company's Q2 2026 guidance of ~$4.6B implies continued double-digit expansion through at least mid-2026.
