Bulls say / Bears say
Sherwin-Williams is gaining share despite weak end markets: third-quarter Paint Stores same-store sales rose 3.9%, with low-single-digit volume growth, while Performance Coatings also recorded low-single-digit volume growth. (Sherwin-Williams)
Management expects 2026 sales to grow at a mid- to high-single-digit rate and adjusted EPS of $11.85–$12.15, above $11.43 in 2025. The September Paint Stores price rise is also expected to reach its usual level of realisation in the first half of 2027. (Sherwin-Williams)
Performance Coatings has grown at a mid-single-digit pace through a prolonged period of soft demand, and management sees scope to lift adjusted margins from the high teens towards 20%. Its technical-service network and added capacity could support further growth as markets recover. (PCI Magazine)
Management expects demand to remain soft and choppy across most end markets into 2027, with few positive leading indicators. That leaves the company relying on share gains rather than a broad market recovery. (Sherwin-Williams)
Higher raw-material and supply-chain costs squeezed third-quarter margins, while management expects low- to mid-single-digit raw-material inflation in 2027 plus higher costs for energy, fuel and wages. The 8% Paint Stores price rise is still ramping up, so price increases may not offset costs straight away. (Sherwin-Williams)
The Suvinil acquisition is adding sales but is diluting reported profitability: Consumer Brands' third-quarter sales rose 21.7%, mainly from the acquisition, while its adjusted segment profit fell. Integration-related costs and the lower-margin mix may therefore limit the benefit of that growth. (Sherwin-Williams)
