Q3 FY26 earnings call · Jul 29, 2026TL;DR. Starbucks delivered Q3 FY26 with 7.9% global comps, 430 bps non-GAAP margin expansion to 14.4%, and 70% EPS growth to $0.85, and raised full-year FY26 guidance for U.S. comps, global comps, consolidated margin (>11%), and EPS ($2.55–$2.65). Consolidated net revenue declined 1% to $9.3 billion and restructuring costs spiked to $302.6M from $20.8M, both weighed by the China JV conversion.
- + Global comparable sales rose 7.9%, the fourth consecutive quarter of positive global comps.
- + Non-GAAP consolidated operating margin expanded 430 bps to 14.4%, with North America margin up year-over-year even excluding tariff refunds.
- + Non-GAAP EPS grew 70% to $0.85.
- + Channel Development net revenues grew 22% to $587.9M with segment operating margin expanding 700 bps to 52.1%.
- + Debt was reduced by ~$1.8B and leverage lowered to 2.9x, preserving investment-grade profile.
- − Consolidated net revenues declined 1% to $9.3 billion and International segment revenue fell 34% to $1.3B due to the China JV conversion.
- − FY26 guidance still calls for consolidated net revenues to be only flat to slightly higher year-over-year as the China conversion continues to weigh on reported revenue.
- − Net new company-operated unit growth in North America may remain modest through FY27 as the company closes underperforming stores and redirects resources to uplifts.

Capital returns
Dividends per share over the trailing 365 days by ex-date · buyback figures as last reported in SEC filings ("spent" derived as authorized − remaining; when several programs run concurrently, authorized is their combined total per the newest filing) · components shown separately — trailing-year buyback spend isn't tracked, so no combined shareholder yield is derived.
