Earnings
Guidance Update
M&A
- Graco reported net sales of $543.4 million for the third quarter ended September 26, 2025, an increase of 5% year-over-year, driven by a 6 percentage point contribution from acquired operations which offset a 2% organic revenue decline.
- For the third quarter, net earnings increased 13% to $137.6 million, and diluted net earnings per common share rose 15% to $0.82. Adjusted net earnings were flat at $122.8 million, and adjusted diluted EPS increased 3% to $0.73.
- The gross profit margin rate remained flat in the third quarter due to price realization and favorable product/channel mix offsetting higher product costs and lower margins from acquired operations. Operating expenses decreased 5%, benefiting from a $14 million non-cash gain related to acquisition-related contingent consideration.
- Year-to-date, net sales increased 5% to $1,643.4 million, with net earnings up 3% to $389.4 million and diluted EPS up 5% to $2.30.
- The company expects to meet its full-year guidance of low single-digit sales growth on an organic, constant currency basis, supported by steady order rates and improved pricing actions.
