On May 7, 2025, Johnson Controls International (JCI) saw a significant increase in trading volume, with a turnover of $628 million, marking a 54.36% rise from the previous day.

Johnson Controls International has raised its 2025 profit forecast following better-than-expected second-quarter results. The company reported fiscal second-quarter 2025 GAAP earnings per share (EPS) of $0.71, exceeding analysts' estimates. This positive performance was driven by sustained demand from data centers for its building and industrial equipment, as businesses increasingly invest in artificial intelligence technology.

The company now expects 2025 adjusted profit per share of $3.60, which is at the top end of its previous forecast range. Excluding certain items, Johnson Controls reported second-quarter profit of 82 cents per share, surpassing analysts' estimates of 79 cents per share. Total revenue for the quarter ended March 31 was $5.68 billion, up 1.4% from a year earlier, slightly above the average analyst expectation of $5.64 billion.

Johnson Controls' strong performance in the second quarter reflects its strategic positioning in the market. The company's liquid cooling systems, used for IT equipment at data centers, as well as its specialized security and fire systems, have benefited from the growing demand for data center infrastructure. This trend is expected to continue, supporting Johnson Controls' optimistic outlook for the remainder of the year.
