Aug 1 (Reuters) - Linde LIN.O, the world's largest industrial gases company, on Friday reported second-quarter earnings above market expectations, citing higher pricing and continued productivity initiatives across its segments.
The U.S.-German company, which supplies gases such as oxygen, nitrogen and hydrogen to factories and hospitals, reported a 6% rise in its adjusted earnings per share to $4.09 in the April-June period.
That was ahead of analysts' mean estimate of $4.03 per share, according to LSEG data.
