______________________
COVINGTON, LA. (February 19, 2026) – Pool Corporation (Nasdaq/GSM:POOL) today announced full year and fourth quarter 2025 results.
“Our 2025 results highlight the differentiation of our customer experience and the depth of our building products portfolio, as well as the stability of our maintenance business and the strength and adaptability of the POOLCORP team. We were encouraged by improving trends for discretionary products in the second half of the year, even with ongoing consumer pressures. Throughout the year, our strategic initiatives remained focused on enhancing our value-added services, supporting industry professionals with our digital platforms and expanding our product offerings. We also maintained disciplined cost management as we navigated an evolving market environment, while continuing to invest in our sales center network and digital ecosystem to sustain our industry-leading position. These efforts are guided by our long-term strategy, positioning us to deliver returns for our shareholders while laying a solid foundation for future performance,” said Peter D. Arvan, president and CEO.
Year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024
Net sales were $5.3 billion for 2025, comparable to 2024 net sales. Sales of non‑discretionary products were steady throughout the year. In the back half of the year, we noticed improved sales trends for discretionary products.
Gross margin was 29.7% in 2025 and 2024. Gross margin in 2024 included a 20 basis points benefit from the reversal of $12.6 million for estimated import taxes. Without this benefit included in our 2024 gross margin, our 2025 gross margin improved 20 basis points, reflecting positive impacts from price increases and disciplined supply chain management.
Selling and administrative expenses (operating expenses) increased 4% to $992.3 million in 2025 compared to $958.1 million in 2024. The growth in expenses was primarily driven by incremental investments in our technology initiatives and sales center network expansion, as well as inflationary impacts, particularly on base wages and facility costs.
Operating income of $580.2 million for the year was 6% lower than $617.2 million in 2024. Without the impact of the 2024 import tax reversal discussed above, 2025 operating income was 4% lower than in 2024.
Net income decreased to $406.4 million in 2025 compared to $434.3 million in 2024.
Earnings per diluted share declined 4% to $10.85 in 2025 compared to $11.30 in 2024, which included a $0.25 benefit from the import tax reversal discussed above. We recorded a $4.6 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, tax benefit from Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, in 2025 compared to an $8.8 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, tax benefit in 2024. Adjusting for the impact from ASU 2016-09 in both years, earnings per diluted share decreased 3% to $10.73 in 2025 compared to $11.07 in 2024.
Balance Sheet and Liquidity
Our inventory balance increased 13% to $1.5 billion at December 31, 2025 compared to December 31, 2024. This growth was primarily driven by increased purchasing ahead of price increases. Additionally, our inventory balance also reflects increases from inflation (including mid-season vendor price increases) and the addition of new and acquired sales centers. Total debt outstanding increased $249.1 million to $1.2 billion at December 31, 2025, primarily to fund open market share repurchases of $341.1 million in 2025 and working capital needs.
Net cash provided by operations was $365.9 million in 2025 compared to $659.2 million in 2024. Net cash provided by operations was in line with our expectations at 90% of net income. The change in net cash provided by operations primarily relates to working capital investments, including increases in inventory, and $68.5 million in federal tax payments deferred from 2024 into 2025 as a result of relief granted by the IRS.
Fourth quarter ended December 31, 2025 compared to the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2024
Net sales decreased 1% to $982.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2025. Gross profit increased $5.5 million and gross margin improved 70 basis points to 30.1% compared to 29.4% in the same period of 2024.
Operating expenses increased 6% to $243.7 million compared to $229.6 million for the same period in 2024, primarily driven by higher employee-related costs (including insurance), increased facility costs for greenfield locations and incremental investments in our customer-facing technology initiatives such as POOL360 Unlocked. Operating income decreased 14% to $52.0 million compared to $60.7 million in the same period last year.
Net income decreased to $31.6 million compared to $37.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2024.
Earnings per diluted share decreased 13% to $0.85 compared to $0.98 in the same period of 2024. We recorded a $0.4 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, tax benefit from ASU 2016-09 compared to a $0.5 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, benefit in the same period of 2024. Adjusting for the impact from ASU 2016-09 in both periods, earnings per diluted share was $0.84 compared to $0.97 in 2024.
2026 Outlook
“The POOLCORP team continues to support our customers while growing the outdoor living industry, building on the reputation that has distinguished us over the past 30 years as a publicly-traded company. The strength of our business is a direct result of the incredible dedication of our employees, the trust of our customers and our long-standing partnerships with our vendors. Looking forward, we’re focused on driving sustainable growth through innovation and disciplined execution. We expect earnings for 2026 to be in the range of $10.85 to $11.15 per diluted share,” added Arvan.
Our 2026 guidance does not include any estimated unrealized tax benefits related to stock option exercises, stock option expirations or restricted stock award vestings occurring in 2026.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release refers to our adjusted diluted EPS, and from time to time, we also reference our adjusted EBITDA when communicating with investors. Both of these are non-GAAP measures. See the addendum to this release for definitions of our non-GAAP measures and reconciliations of our non-GAAP measures to GAAP measures.

- Operating cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2025 were reduced by $68.5 million for federal tax payments deferred from 2024 as a result of relief granted by the IRS. This deferred tax payment increased operating cash flows in 2024 and decreased operating cash flows in 2025.
ADDENDUM
Base Business
When calculating our base business results, we exclude for a period of 15 months sales centers that are acquired, opened in new markets or closed. We also exclude consolidated sales centers when we do not expect to maintain the majority of the existing business and existing sales centers that are consolidated with acquired sales centers.
We generally allocate corporate overhead expenses to excluded sales centers on the basis of their net sales as a percentage of total net sales. After 15 months, we include acquired, consolidated and new market sales centers in the base business calculation including the comparative prior year period.
We have not provided separate base business income statement data within this press release as our base business results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2025 closely approximated our consolidated results. Excluded sales centers contributed less than 1% to the change in our reported net sales.
The table below summarizes the changes in our sales centers during 2025.
| December 31, 2024 | 448 |
|---|---|
| Acquired locations | 3 |
| New locations | 8 |
| Consolidated/closed locations | (3) |
| December 31, 2025 | 456 |
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The non-GAAP measures described below should be considered in the context of all of our other disclosures in this press release.
Adjusted EBITDA
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income or net loss plus interest and other non-operating expenses, provision for income taxes, depreciation, amortization, share-based compensation, goodwill and other impairments and equity in earnings or loss of unconsolidated investments. Other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, which may limit its usefulness as a comparative measure.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of performance as determined by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). We believe Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, operating income or loss, net income or loss, net cash flows provided by or used in operating, investing and financing activities or other income statement or cash flow statement line items reported in accordance with GAAP.
From time to time, we use Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental disclosure because management uses it to monitor our performance, and we believe that it is widely used by our investors, industry analysts and others as a useful supplemental performance measure. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA, when viewed with our GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliations, provides an additional measure that enables management and investors to monitor factors and trends affecting our ability to service debt, pay taxes and fund capital expenditures.
The table below presents a reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted Diluted EPS
We have included adjusted diluted EPS, a non-GAAP financial measure, in this press release as a supplemental disclosure, because we believe this measure is useful to management, investors and others in assessing our period-to-period operating performance.
Adjusted diluted EPS is a key measure used by management to demonstrate the impact of tax benefits from ASU 2016-09 on our diluted EPS and to provide investors and others with additional information about our potential future operating performance to supplement GAAP measures.
We believe this measure should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, diluted EPS presented in accordance with GAAP, and in the context of our other disclosures in this press release. Other companies may calculate this non-GAAP financial measure differently than we do, which may limit its usefulness as a comparative measure.
The table below presents a reconciliation of diluted EPS to adjusted diluted EPS.
