Lennox International Inc. (LII): one to watch?

Wait — a real but modest guidance cut from housing weakness triggered an oversized 25% crash, but the residential slump could keep worsening.

Why LII dropped

Lennox reported Q2 2026 earnings on July 29 that missed revenue estimates and cut full-year EPS guidance to a $23.50 midpoint, about 4.7% below what Wall Street expected, driven by weak residential air-conditioner/furnace demand tied to a soft housing market, even as the commercial HVAC business grew strongly.
