Utz Brands Reports Third Quarter 2026 Results
Utz Brands reported a weak Q3 2026: net sales fell 2.3% to $369.2 million, Adjusted EBITDA dropped 30.3% to $42.0 million, and Adjusted EPS fell 56.5% to $0.10, with adjusted gross margin down 530bps on supply-chain cost inflation. The company blamed abrupt, significant inflation and a modestly weaker consumer; retail volumes fell 3.3% versus a 0.1% gain for the salty snack category. Stock-price significance is muted by the pending $14.25-per-share take-private by Intersnack Group, expected to close in Q4 2026, with all regulatory conditions satisfied and a stockholder vote set for November 13.
