Service Revenue and Earnings
BERKSHIRE HATHAWAY INC · 2026-08-10 · Importance 35 · Surprise 48
Service group revenues increased 21.1% in the second quarter and 19.1% in the first six months of 2026, driven by TTI, aviation services and IPS. TTI’s first-half revenue increased 26.5%, reflecting accelerating customer demand, favorable foreign currency translation and inventory cost-based price increases. Customers increased orders partly in response to potential further price increases and supply-chain concerns, including extended inventory order lead times. Aviation-services growth reflected more aircraft in shared-ownership programs, higher in-flight and training hours, and higher average prices, while IPS benefited primarily from life-sciences construction and other construction consulting services.
