Motorola Solutions opened 2026 with record Q1 revenue and a backlog position that underscores the durability of public safety and defense spending as a secular growth driver. Non-GAAP EPS of $3.37 beat the $3.25 estimate, and total revenue grew 7% year-over-year, with the Software and Services segment posting an exceptional 18% gain. The company raised full-year revenue guidance to approximately $12.8 billion from $12.7 billion and lifted the non-GAAP EPS range to $16.87, $16.99, up from $16.70, $16.85, reflecting both stronger-than-expected core public safety demand and a materially upgraded outlook for Silvus, now expected to generate $750 million in full-year revenue versus the prior $675 million expectation.
