Q3 FY26 earnings call · Nov 4, 2026
Q3 FY26
TL;DR. SWK delivered 4% organic growth, a 16.3% adjusted EBITDA margin and $2.31 of adjusted EPS, while raising adjusted EPS guidance to $5.95–$6.25, free-cash-flow guidance to $1.0–$1.2 billion and the buyback authorization by $1 billion; full-year gross margin is also expected to expand approximately 350 basis points. Risks include a 1% reported-sales decline, 2% pricing decline, weak automotive and outdoor performance, meaningful inflation expected in 2027 and uncertainty around fourth-quarter tariff refunds.
Bullish
- + Adjusted EBITDA margin rose 400 basis points year over year to 16.3%.
- + Adjusted EPS of $2.31 exceeded the midpoint of the prior guidance range by $0.76.
- + The company raised and tightened full-year adjusted EPS guidance to $5.95–$6.25, implying 31% year-over-year growth at the midpoint.
- + Third-quarter organic revenue grew 4%, with all three core brands delivering organic growth.
- + Full-year gross margin is expected to expand approximately 350 basis points, including approximately 150 basis points from net tariff refunds.
Bearish
- − Automotive organic revenue declined 2% as OEM customers became more cautious on launches, production schedules, and capital deployment.
- − Engineered Fastening full-year adjusted segment margin is now expected to be flat year over year because of material inflation and automotive softness.
- − Outdoor organic revenue declined 12% because of continued U.S. and A&Z weather pressure.
- − Inflationary pressure is increasing, particularly for steel and electrical components, creating meaningful cost pressure for 2027.
- − Updated EPS guidance excludes potential fourth-quarter tariff refunds because their timing and amounts remain uncertain.
