Shares of TE Connectivity climbed after the company reported better-than-expected fiscal second-quarter results, driven by improved margins.

The Ireland-based electrical-components supplier posted a profit of $13 million, or 4 cents a share, for the three months ended March 28, compared with $541 million, or $1.75 a share, a year earlier.
The company had previously guided for a loss of 5 cents a share.
Adjusted earnings per share were $2.10, above the company's previous guidance for $1.96 per share. Analysts polled by FactSet expected $1.96.
Revenue rose 4% to $4.14 billion, ahead of analyst forecasts of $3.97 billion. The figure also beat the company's previous guidance of $3.95 billion.
The company reported an operating margin of 18%, led by higher margins in its industrial-solutions segment.
Chief Executive Terrence Curtin attributed the expanded margins to broad business growth and ongoing momentum in artificial intelligence, aerospace and energy applications in its industrial segment.
