$SNAPress releaseOct 22, 2026, 6:30 AM ETRead the release

Snap-on reported Q3 2026 net sales of $1,183.7 million, down 0.6% year-over-year, with diluted EPS of $4.64 versus $5.02 a year ago. The decline was driven by a 2.8% organic sales drop, concentrated in the Snap-on Tools Group (organic -7.0%), which management attributed to franchisees reducing inventories amid an accelerated rise in diesel prices, despite stable technician demand. Commercial & Industrial was a bright spot, with sales of $404.3 million, up 7.4% organically, and segment operating margin expanding to 18.5% from 15.6%; consolidated gross margins held strong.
