What the Analysts think about Sherwin-Williams
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Sherwin-Williams stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Sherwin-Williams stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Second-quarter sales rose 7.5%, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS increased by about 10%, and adjusted EBITDA margin expanded by 60 basis points to 21.5%. Sherwin-Williams also raised its 2026 adjusted EPS guidance to $11.80-$12.20, despite no meaningful improvement in overall demand. (PR Newswire, Last10K)
The Paint Stores Group delivered 4.2% same-store sales growth as new account wins and higher share of wallet offset weak construction markets. Sherwin-Williams opened 45 stores year to date and remains on track for 80-100 openings in 2026, supporting longer-term distribution and share gains. (Exa, Last10K)
The Suvinil acquisition lifted Consumer Brands sales by 21.5%, while adjusted segment margin rose to 24.5%. Management also reported 86% free-cash-flow conversion and returned about $1.46 billion through dividends and buybacks in the quarter, giving investors both integration upside and strong capital returns. (PR Newswire, Yahoo Finance)
Management said customer sentiment and leading indicators pointed to continued demand softness in the second half, with new residential construction and DIY particularly weak. Sherwin-Williams is therefore relying on share gains rather than a broad market recovery. (PR Newswire, Exa)
Raw-material inflation is expected to reach a high-single-digit rate in the second half, driven by oil-related costs and wider energy, logistics and packaging inflation. The announced 8% Paint Stores price rise may not fully protect margins if costs arrive before pricing is realised or customers resist higher prices. (PR Newswire, Exa)
Consumer Brands growth was helped by the Suvinil acquisition, while volume excluding pricing and foreign exchange fell by a low-single-digit percentage. Integration continues through 2026 and into early 2027, so the earnings benefit depends on delivering synergies rather than purely organic demand. (Exa, Yahoo Finance)
