  • Motorola Solutions' third-quarter 2026 GAAP EPS fell 8% to $3.06, while net sales rose 12% to $3.38 billion.
  • GAAP operating margin narrowed 2.6 percentage points to 23%, primarily due to an increased contingent Silvus earnout.
  • Operating cash flow dropped 17% to $662 million due to higher tax and interest payments, partially offset by higher earnings net of noncash charges.
