Sunbelt Rentals Holdings Inc (SUNB) stock plummeted 7.94% during intraday trading on Tuesday, as investors reacted negatively to the company's latest financial results.

The equipment rental company reported a significant drop in profitability for its fiscal fourth quarter, with net income falling 31.3% year-over-year to $226 million. For the full fiscal year 2026, net income declined 14.7% to $1.33 billion. While total revenue for the quarter rose 8.9% to $2.75 billion, operating income fell 20.5% to $410 million, and adjusted EBITDA edged down 1.3% to $1.07 billion with margins narrowing substantially.

Investors appeared to focus on the profit declines and margin compression, as well as the company's adjusted EPS of $0.74 which missed the consensus estimate of $0.76. The company also provided its fiscal 2027 outlook, calling for revenue growth of 4.5% to 7.5% and adjusted EBITDA of $4.85 billion to $5.05 billion, but this failed to offset concerns about the current profitability challenges.
