Air Products & Chemicals, Inc. APD

The strongest current evidence on Air Products & Chemicals is the 2026-04-30 10-Q for the period ending 2026-03-31: revenues of $3.17B, operating income of $752.7M, net income attributable to the parent of $710.4M, and diluted EPS of $3.19. The same date also brought an 8-K stating that the company issued a press release announcing second-quarter fiscal 2026 earnings.

Air Products is being read here as an operating equity, not a story stock with the machinery cropped out. The supplied rail shows industrial gases and associated product lines, a green ammonia offtake arrangement with a renewable-powered NGHC facility, and a Form SD supply-chain filing covering tin, tungsten, tantalum and/or gold in certain manufactured or contracted products.

The latest filed balance sheet facts put the scale in view: assets of $41.64B, liabilities of $23.49B, parent stockholders' equity of $15.65B, cash and cash equivalents of $951.0M, inventory net of $767.9M, and diluted weighted average shares outstanding of 222.9M for the 2026-03-31 10-Q period. Operating cash flow was $2.00B, while payments to acquire property, plant and equipment were $2.36B, so the report is as much about plant investment as profit.

The chart rail is not supplied in this evidence pack, so this file cannot claim candle patterns, support levels, moving averages, volume signals, or a share-price reaction. The available source route is SEC EDGAR: the 10-Q, 8-K, Form SD, Schedule 13G/A filings, Form 4, Form 144, submissions JSON, companyfacts JSON, and the company filing index.

What changed most recently is filing texture rather than a new commercial announcement: a 2026-05-29 Form SD on conflict minerals, two 2026-05-14 Schedule 13G/A filings, a 2026-05-04 Form 4, and a 2026-05-01 Form 144 followed the April earnings filing sequence. Those items deepen the public record, but they do not by themselves prove new sales, pricing, margins, backlog, guidance, dividends, buybacks, or market share.

The source pack is useful because it separates hard facts from the usual industrial-company fog. The hard facts are profit, cash, capex, balance sheet size, inventory, R&D expense of $21.6M, and the green ammonia offtake wording. The unproven areas are equally important: no supplied guidance figure, no supplied dividend or buyback fact, no supplied segment breakdown, and no supplied live chart route.
