The company said it now expects full-year net sales growth in the low-30-percent-range, up from its earlier view of low 20 percent growth. Full-year adjusted earnings are expected to be between $2.65 and $2.70 per share. Analysts on average were expecting earnings of $2.39 per share on revenue of $985.3 million, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S. For the third quarter, Generac expects to report earnings of 31 cents to 36 cents per share on sales of $295 to $300 million.
