Summary

Sherwin-Williams reported third-quarter 2026 net sales of $6.86 billion, up 7.9% from a year earlier, and income before income taxes of $1.06 billion, essentially flat versus the prior-year period. Consolidated gross profit as a percent of net sales fell to 47.8% from 49.2%, pressured by mix including dilution from the October 2025 Suvinil acquisition and higher raw material and supply chain costs.

Key points

  • Nine-month 2026 net sales rose 7.4% to $19.32 billion, and nine-month income before income taxes rose to $2.86 billion from $2.70 billion.

  • Paint Stores Group third-quarter net sales rose 4.7% to $4.02 billion on selling price increases and low-single-digit volume growth, with same-store sales up 3.9%.
  • Performance Coatings Group third-quarter net sales rose 8.8% to $1.90 billion, led by double-digit growth in General Industrial, Packaging and Coil.
