CEO REMARKS
“Sherwin-Williams delivered strong fourth quarter results driven by solid core performance amid continued demand choppiness, and inclusive of the first full quarter of the Suvinil acquisition,” said Chair, President and Chief Executive Officer, Heidi G. Petz. “Consolidated Net sales were at the high end of our guidance, adjusted EBITDA improved by a low-teens percentage and adjusted diluted net income per share increased by a mid-single digit percentage. We continued to execute our strategy, prioritize strategic growth investments, and tightly manage general and administrative expenses. SG&A growth remained in our targeted low-single digit range, including the addition of Suvinil, as previously announced restructuring efforts continued to yield savings. Free cash flow conversion in the quarter was 90.1%.
“For the full year, our ‘Success by Design’ approach resulted in record consolidated Net sales and record adjusted diluted net income per share. Gross profit, gross margin, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin all increased. Paint Stores Group sales growth was led by protective & marine, residential repaint and commercial, and segment margin expanded. Consumer Brands Group sales growth was driven by Suvinil, as core North America DIY demand remained soft. Performance Coatings Group sales were flat, as high-single digit growth in Packaging and record new account growth offset soft core demand across the rest of the business. Net operating cash grew 9% to $3.5 billion, or 14.6% of Net sales, which is within our mid-term target range and consistent with our disciplined capital allocation strategy. Our targeted capital expenditures included our new buildings, which are now occupied and supporting our field teams and customers, and we returned $2.4 billion to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends, which we increased for the 47 consecutive year.”
FOURTH QUARTER CONSOLIDATED RESULTS
(in millions, except per share data)
| Three Months Ended December 31, |
|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | $ Change | % Change |
|---|
| Net sales | $5,595.9 | | $5,297.2 | | $298.7 | 5.6% |
| Income before income taxes | $639.0 | | $615.6 | | $23.4 | 3.8% |
| As a % of Net sales | | 11.4% | | 11.6% | | |
| Net income per share - diluted | $1.92 | | $1.90 | | $0.02 | 1.1% |
| Adjusted net income per share - diluted | $2.23 | | $2.09 | | $0.14 | 6.7% |
Consolidated Net sales increased due to higher Net sales in all segments, inclusive of the acquisition of Suvinil, which contributed $164.5 million, or 3.1% of the change from the fourth quarter of 2024.
Income before income taxes increased primarily due to higher Net sales in all segments, partially offset by increased investments in long-term growth opportunities in the Paint Stores Group, costs related to the Suvinil acquisition, including higher interest expense, costs related to the new global headquarters and R&D buildings, trademark impairment and other costs associated with targeted restructuring actions and foreign currency transaction related losses.
Diluted net income per share included a charge of $0.20 and $0.19 per share for acquisition-related amortization expense in the fourth quarter of 2025 and 2024, respectively. In the fourth quarter of 2025, diluted net income per share also included charges of $0.06 per share related to severance and other restructuring expenses and $0.05 per share associated with impairment related to trademarks.
FOURTH QUARTER SEGMENT RESULTS
(in millions)
Paint Stores Group (PSG)
| Three Months Ended December 31, |
|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | $ Change | % Change |
|---|
| Net sales | $3,127.1 | | $3,044.9 | | $82.2 | 2.7% |
| Same-store sales change | | 1.0% | | 2.0% | | |
| Segment profit | $649.5 | | $606.4 | | $43.1 | 7.1% |
| Reported segment margin | | 20.8% | | 19.9% | | |
Same-store sales represents Net sales from stores open more than twelve calendar months.
Net sales in PSG increased primarily due to selling price increases, which impacted Net sales by a mid-single digit percentage, partially offset by a low-single digit decrease in sales volume. Net sales increased in certain professional customer end markets, led by a high-single digit percentage increase in protective and marine and a low-single digit increase in residential repaint and commercial. PSG Segment profit increased due to growth in Net sales from favorable selling prices, partially offset by investments in long-term growth opportunities and foreign currency transaction related losses.
Consumer Brands Group (CBG)
| Three Months Ended December 31, |
|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | $ Change | % Change |
|---|
| Net sales | $824.7 | | $662.2 | | $162.5 | 24.5% |
| Segment profit | $56.2 | | $66.6 | | $(10.4) | (15.6)% |
| Reported segment margin | | 6.8% | | 10.1% | | |
| Adjusted segment profit | $87.3 | | $82.0 | | $5.3 | 6.5% |
| Adjusted segment margin | | 10.6% | | 12.4% | | |
Adjusted segment profit equals Segment profit excluding the impact of Valspar acquisition-related amortization expense and severance and other restructuring expenses. In CBG, Valspar acquisition-related amortization expense was $15.5 million and $15.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 and 2024, respectively, and severance and other restructuring expenses were $15.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2025.
Net sales in CBG increased primarily due to the acquisition of Suvinil, which contributed $164.5 million, or 24.8% of the change from the fourth quarter of 2024, and a 1.3% impact from favorable foreign currency translation. These increases were offset by decreases in sales volume and product mix, which collectively impacted Net sales by a low-single digit percentage. CBG Segment profit decreased primarily due to expenses associated with targeted restructuring actions, partially offset by higher Net sales and lower employee-related costs. Adjusted segment profit increased for these same reasons, excluding the expenses associated with targeted restructuring actions.
Valspar acquisition-related amortization expense reduced Segment profit as a percent of Net sales by 190 basis points in the fourth quarter of 2025 as compared to 230 basis points in the fourth quarter of 2024. Severance and other restructuring expenses reduced Segment profit as a percent of Net sales by 190 basis points in the fourth quarter of 2025.
Performance Coatings Group (PCG)
| Three Months Ended December 31, |
|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | $ Change | % Change |
|---|
| Net sales | $1,642.1 | | $1,589.0 | | $53.1 | 3.3% |
| Segment profit | $244.6 | | $229.0 | | $15.6 | 6.8% |
| Reported segment margin | | 14.9% | | 14.4% | | |
| Adjusted segment profit | $312.8 | | $277.9 | | $34.9 | 12.6% |
| Adjusted segment margin | | 19.0% | | 17.5% | | |
Adjusted segment profit equals Segment profit excluding the impact of Valspar acquisition-related amortization expense, severance and other restructuring expenses and trademark impairment. In PCG, Valspar acquisition-related amortization expense was $49.7 million and $48.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 and 2024, respectively, severance and other restructuring expenses were $0.7 million and trademark impairment was $17.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2025.
Net sales in PCG increased primarily due to a 2.6% impact from favorable foreign currency translation and a low-single digit impact from an acquisition. Sales volume and selling prices were essentially flat. Performance was led by Packaging, which increased by a high-single digit percentage, and Automotive Refinish. PCG Segment profit increased primarily as a result of higher Net sales and effective cost control, partially offset by trademark impairment associated with targeted restructuring actions. Adjusted segment profit increased primarily due to these same reasons, excluding the impact of trademark impairment.
Valspar acquisition-related amortization expense reduced Segment profit as a percent of Net sales by 300 basis points in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to 310 basis points in the fourth quarter of 2024. Trademark impairment reduced Segment profit as a percent of Net sales by 110 basis points in the fourth quarter of 2025.

2026 GUIDANCE
| First Quarter | Full Year |
|---|
| 2026 | 2026 |
|---|
| Net sales | Up mid-single digit % | Up low to mid-single digit % |
| Effective tax rate | | Low twenty percent |

“We enter 2026 with a continuation of the softer-for-longer demand environment we have previously described,” said Ms. Petz. “We expect these conditions to persist well into the second half of the year based on current customer sentiment and the macroeconomic indicators we track. At the same time, we also expect to continue to outperform the market given our differentiated strategy of providing innovative and productivity-improving solutions for our customers. We will continue to aggressively pursue profitable growth opportunities in every business, leveraging our world-class talent and unique assets, while executing on our enterprise strategic priorities. Our strong cash generation will enable us to invest in our business, return cash to our shareholders and make strategic acquisitions that accelerate our long-term growth.
“Today’s initial guidance reflects a realistic assessment of the demand environment, with our economic assumptions outlined in our accompanying slide deck. For the first quarter of 2026, we expect consolidated Net sales will be up a mid-single digit percentage compared to the first quarter of 2025. For the full year 2026, we expect consolidated Net sales to be up by a low to mid-single digit percentage compared to 2025, and we expect adjusted diluted net income per share to be in the range of $11.50 to $11.90 per share, an increase of 2.4% at the midpoint compared to 2025.”

Regulation G Reconciliations
Management of the Company utilizes certain financial measures that are not in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (US GAAP) to analyze and manage the performance of the business. Management provides non-GAAP information in reporting its financial results to give investors additional data to evaluate the Company’s operations. Management does not, nor does it suggest investors should, consider such non-GAAP measures in isolation from, or in substitution for, financial information prepared in accordance with US GAAP.
Management believes that investors’ understanding of the Company’s operating performance is enhanced by the disclosure of diluted net income per share excluding Valspar acquisition-related amortization and certain other adjustments. Valspar acquisition-related amortization expense is excluded from diluted net income per share due to its significance as a result of the purchase price assigned to finite-lived intangible assets at the date of acquisition and the related impact on underlying business performance and trends. While these intangible assets contribute to the Company’s revenue generation, the related revenue is not excluded. This adjusted earnings per share measurement is not in accordance with US GAAP. It should not be considered a substitute for earnings per share computed in accordance with US GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The following tables reconcile diluted net income per share computed in accordance with US GAAP to adjusted diluted net income per share.

| Adjusted diluted net income per share | | | $2.09 | | | $11.33 |
The tax effect is calculated based on the statutory rate and the nature of the item, unless otherwise noted.
Acquisition-related amortization expense, which is included within Selling, general and administrative expenses, consists of the amortization of intangible assets related to the Valspar acquisition. These intangible assets are primarily customer relationships and intellectual property and are being amortized over their remaining useful lives.
Management believes that investors’ understanding of the Company’s operating performance is enhanced by the disclosure of EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as Net income before income taxes and Interest expense, depreciation and amortization, as well as Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes certain adjustments that management further believes enhances investors’ understanding of the Company’s operating performance. The reader is cautioned that the Company’s EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be compared to other entities unknowingly. Further, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered alternatives to Net income as an indicator of operating performance. The following table reconciles Net income computed in accordance with US GAAP to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, as applicable.
