Dover on Thursday delivered better-than-expected second-quarter earnings and raised its full-year guidance — an all-around strong report that validates our decision to take a stake in the industrial name two months ago. Revenue in the three months ended June 30 totaled $2.18 billion, topping the consensus of $2.15 billion, according to estimates compiled by LSEG.

Quarterly commentary Dover knocked it out of the park with its organic bookings growth, up 16% in the quarter, representing a major acceleration from the 3% growth tallied in the January-to-March period.
