WD-40 Company Reports Third Quarter 2026 Financial Results

~ Net sales increased 24%, driven by double-digit growth across all three trade blocs ~

~ Operating income increased 47%, reflecting strong operating leverage and the benefits of scale ~

~ Management updates guidance to better reflect current outlook ~

SAN DIEGO — July 9, 2026 — WD-40 Company (NASDAQ:WDFC), a global marketing organization dedicated to creating positive lasting memories by developing and selling products that solve problems in workshops, factories and homes around the world, today reported financial results for its third fiscal quarter ended May 31, 2026.

Third Quarter Highlights and Summary:

•Total net sales were $195.1 million, an increase of 24 percent compared to the prior year fiscal quarter.

•Translation of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries’ results from their functional currencies to U.S. dollars had a favorable impact on net sales of approximately $7.3 million for the current quarter. On a non-GAAP constant currency basis, total net sales in the third quarter would have increased 20 percent to $187.8 million compared to the prior year fiscal quarter.

•Maintenance product sales were $189.7 million, an increase of 26 percent compared to the prior year fiscal quarter. On a non-GAAP constant currency basis, maintenance product sales in the third quarter would have increased 22 percent compared to the prior year fiscal quarter.

•Gross margin increased to 56.6 percent compared to 56.2 percent in the prior year fiscal quarter.

•Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $56.7 million, up 10 percent compared to the prior year fiscal quarter.

•Advertising and sales promotion expenses were $11.9 million, up 30 percent compared to the prior year fiscal quarter. These expenses accounted for 6.1 percent of total net sales, up from 5.8 percent in the prior year fiscal quarter.

•Operating income was $40.3 million, an increase of 47 percent from the prior year fiscal quarter.

•Net income was $30.2 million, an increase of 44 percent from the prior year fiscal quarter. During the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, we reclassified certain homecare and cleaning products in the Americas and recorded an additional $1.3 million of related amortization expense. Excluding this one-time expense, on a non-GAAP basis, adjusted net income was $31.5 million, an increase of 50 percent.

•Diluted earnings per share were $2.24 compared to $1.54 in the prior year fiscal quarter, an increase of 45 percent. Excluding the one-time adjustment for amortization expense mentioned above, non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS was $2.33, an increase of 51 percent.

“We delivered an exceptional third quarter, with net sales increasing 24% and operating income increasing 47%, demonstrating the operating leverage inherent in our business model,” said Steve Brass, president and chief executive officer. “Our strong performance was driven by double-digit growth across all three trade blocs and continued progress in our Must-Win Battles, delivering solid double-digit year-to-date growth in geographic expansion, WD-40 Specialist, premiumized products, and e-commerce.

“During the quarter, we decided to shift our focus and no longer actively market our Americas homecare and cleaning brands and have reclassified those assets as held for use. Based on this action and our strong year-to-date performance, we are updating our guidance to include the homecare and cleaning business in our outlook and narrowing the guidance ranges for the remainder of fiscal year 2026.”

Third Quarter Highlights by Segment:

Americas

•The Americas segment represented 52 percent of total net sales in the third quarter.

•Total net sales in the Americas increased 29 percent compared to the prior year fiscal quarter, driven by a 31 percent increase in maintenance product sales. This growth was primarily attributable to higher sales of WD-40® Multi-Use Product in the United States and Latin America, where net sales rose by $17.2 million and $2.6 million, respectively. In the United States, strong performance was driven by expanded distribution, continued strength in online channels, and strong promotional activity including a high-impact promotional program. In Latin America, sales increased in both Brazil and Mexico, supported by higher volumes in Brazil and by higher volumes and favorable currency impacts in Mexico.

•WD-40 Specialist® also contributed to the increase in maintenance product sales, with net sales up $2.1 million, or 22 percent, compared to the prior year fiscal quarter, driven primarily by new distribution, growth in online sales, and enhanced product placement.

•Translation of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries’ results from their functional currencies to U.S. dollars had a favorable impact on net sales in the Americas. On a non-GAAP constant currency basis, net sales in Americas would have been $99.5 million for the third quarter, reflecting an increase of 27 percent compared to the prior year fiscal quarter.

EIMEA

•The EIMEA segment represented 34 percent of total net sales in the third quarter.

•Total net sales in EIMEA increased 17 percent compared to the prior year fiscal quarter driven by a 20 percent increase in maintenance product sales. This growth was primarily attributable to higher sales volume in both direct and distributor markets as well as favorable changes in foreign currency exchange rates. WD-40® Multi-Use Product led this performance, with net sales increasing $7.2 million, or 17 percent, driven by strong maintenance product growth in key markets, improved distributor market performance, and customer inventory builds ahead of anticipated supply constraints and price increases.

•WD-40 Specialist® also contributed to the increase in maintenance product sales, with net sales increasing $3.0 million, or 31 percent, compared to the prior year fiscal quarter. Growth was driven by strong performance across all direct markets, supported by effective marketing programs, new product introductions, and favorable foreign currency exchange rates.

•Translation of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries’ results from their functional currencies to U.S. dollars had a favorable impact on net sales in EIMEA. On a non-GAAP constant currency basis, net sales in EIMEA would have been $62.2 million for the third quarter, reflecting an increase of 10 percent compared to the prior year fiscal quarter.

Asia-Pacific

•The Asia-Pacific segment represented 14 percent of total net sales in the third quarter.

•Total net sales in Asia-Pacific increased 24 percent compared to the prior year fiscal quarter, primarily due to a 25 percent increase in sales of maintenance products. Growth was broad-based across the region, driven primarily by higher sales of WD-40® Multi-Use Product in China and the Company’s Asia distributor markets, where net sales rose by $3.0 million and $1.4 million, respectively. In China, growth was driven by higher sales volumes, supported by promotional and marketing programs, including online influencers, as well as expanded distribution across online retail and industrial channels. Sales also benefited from advanced buying ahead of planned price increases later this year. In the Company’s Asia distributor markets, sales increased due to promotional programs, particularly in the Philippines, Indonesia, and Malaysia.

•Net sales of WD-40 Specialist® increased 32 percent compared to the prior year quarter, driven primarily by strong sales volumes in China supported by successful promotions and expanded distribution.

•Translation of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries’ results from their functional currencies to U.S. dollars had a favorable impact on net sales in Asia-Pacific. On a non-GAAP constant currency basis, net sales in Asia-Pacific would have been $26.1 million for the third quarter, reflecting an increase of 18 percent compared to the prior year fiscal period.

•Net sales of maintenance products, the Company’s primary strategic focus, represented 97 percent of total net sales in the third quarter. Maintenance products increased 26 percent compared to the prior year quarter, primarily driven by higher sales of WD-40® Multi-Use Product in the United States, EIMEA and China.

•Net sales of homecare and cleaning products represented 3 percent of total net sales in the third quarter. Net sales of homecare and cleaning products decreased 17 percent compared to the prior year quarter. The Company completed the divestiture of its entire homecare and cleaning portfolio in the United Kingdom during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025. Sales related to these products were $1.1 million in the comparative period in the prior fiscal year.

Dividend and Share Repurchase Update

•On June 15, 2026, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $1.02 per share. The dividend is payable on July 31, 2026, to stockholders of record at the close of business on July 17, 2026.

•During the third quarter, the Company repurchased 31,250 shares at a total cost of $6.8 million.

•On June 15, 2026, WD-40 Company’s Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to $100.0 million of the Company’s outstanding common stock. The

program will become effective on September 1, 2026. Repurchases may be made from time to time based on market conditions and other factors, subject to applicable laws, regulations and the Company’s existing debt covenants. The program has no expiration date and may be modified, suspended or discontinued at any time at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

Updated Fiscal Year 2026 Guidance

The Company updated its fiscal year 2026 guidance to reflect the reclassification of its Americas homecare and cleaning brands from assets held for sale to assets held for use. The revised outlook includes approximately $12 million in net sales, $2.9 million in operating income, and $0.17 in diluted earnings per share associated with these brands. The Company also narrowed its guidance ranges to reflect year-to-date performance and its outlook for the remainder of the fiscal year.

The Company's guidance is provided on a non-GAAP basis and excludes the one-time amortization catch-up expense of $1.3 million recorded in the third quarter of fiscal year 2026.

•For fiscal year 2026, the Company expects net sales, excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations, to be between $652 million and $667 million, representing growth of 6% to 9% compared with pro forma fiscal year 2025 net sales.

•Based on current exchange rates, reported net sales are expected to be between $675 million and $690 million, representing growth of 10 percent to 12 percent compared with pro forma fiscal year 2025 net sales.

•Gross margin is now expected to be between 54.5 percent and 55.5 percent. The revised outlook incorporates a 40-basis-point adjustment due to the reclassification of homecare and cleaning brands, along with an additional 60 basis points from higher-than-expected cost increases. The Company has implemented pricing actions and cost-saving initiatives, with the majority of the expected benefit anticipated in fiscal year 2027.

•Advertising and promotion investment is expected to remain approximately 6 percent of net sales.

•Non-GAAP operating income is expected to be between $107 million and $113 million, representing growth of 5 percent to 11 percent compared with pro forma fiscal year 2025 results.

•The provision for income tax is expected to be around 22.5 percent.

•Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share are expected to be between $6.05 and $6.35, based on an estimated 13.5 million weighted-average shares outstanding. This outlook represents growth of 6 percent to 11 percent compared with pro forma fiscal year 2025 results.

This guidance is based on management's current expectations and estimates and is provided on a pro forma basis. Unanticipated inflationary pressures and other unforeseen events could materially affect the Company's financial results. Key assumptions include an average euro-to-U.S. dollar exchange rate of approximately 1.17 during the Company's fourth fiscal quarter. Net sales guidance presented on a constant currency basis assumes weighted-average fiscal year 2025 foreign currency exchange rates.
