Revenue totaled $1.79 billion, and adjusted EPS was $5.17. These figures surpassed analyst expectations of $1.78 billion for revenue and $5.09 for EPS. Despite these positive beats, growth remained measured, especially in discretionary segments. Gross and operating margins held steady at 30.0% and 15.3%, respectively. Management trimmed its full-year 2025 earnings outlook based on second-quarter performance and expectations for the rest of the year.
