Curtiss-Wright said it is adding $100 million to its 2026 share repurchase program, lifting expected buybacks for the year to $160 million.

The company said it will begin repurchasing the additional $100 million of stock immediately through a 10b5-1 program. It is also continuing to work through its existing $60 million repurchase program, which began in January 2026 and is expected to be completed this year.

After both programs are finished, Curtiss-Wright said it will still have $390 million of remaining open repurchase authorization.

The announcement follows the company’s recent upward revision to full-year 2026 guidance across all major financial metrics. Management said the higher buyback commitment reflects confidence in future growth, strong operating performance, mid-teens earnings growth, and steady free cash flow generation.

Curtiss-Wright said it employs about 9,200 people. As a result of these announcements, the company's shares have moved 3.04% on the market, and are now trading at a price of $715.49. For more information, read the company's full 8-K submission here.
