Summary

Genuine Parts Company reported third-quarter 2026 net sales of $6.52 billion, up 4.2% from a year earlier, as restructuring and separation-related costs contributed to a 0.8% decline in net income to $224.4 million and adjusted net income rose 3.8%. The company reiterated that it intends to split into two independent, publicly traded businesses — Global Automotive and Global Industrial — a separation announced on February 17, 2026 and targeted for completion in the first quarter of 2027, and said tariffs and Middle East conflict-driven fuel and freight costs continued to pressure costs.

Key points

  • Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 rose 5.6% to $19.32 billion, while net income fell 5.2% to $640.5 million.
  • Third-quarter comparable sales increased 2.9%, including an estimated 2.5% of price inflation with tariff-related effects.
  • The company said it has no operations in the Middle East but experienced higher fuel and freight costs, primarily in International Automotive.
  • Genuine Parts filed refund claims after a February 20, 2026 U.S. Supreme Court decision invalidated certain tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act; its exposure as importer of record is less than 0.5% of total purchases and claims and refunds through September 30, 2026 were not material.
