Management Commentary
Phil Daniele, President and Chief Executive Officer
“I want to thank our entire organization for delivering another quarter of sales and earnings growth. In spite of a difficult selling environment the first eight weeks of our quarter, we remained committed to executing on our strategies to grow both our domestic and international businesses. Over the last eight weeks of the quarter our sales results strengthened, and we feel we are well positioned for sales growth in fiscal 2027. We opened 175 new stores this past quarter, which included 16 new Mega Hub stores in the U.S. We continue to improve our inventory offering for both the do-it-yourself and professional customers. We continue to improve our speed of delivery and are intently focused on exceptional customer service. Based on the data we have, we continued to gain share and we expect sales in each of the three countries in which we operate to accelerate in the new fiscal year. As always, we will remain committed to a disciplined approach of driving shareholder value,”
