“We’re encouraged by our fourth quarter results, delivering overall sales growth and maintaining solid levels of profitability…all achieved against the extraordinary turbulence of today’s environment,” said Nick Pinchuk, Snap-on chairman and chief executive officer. “During the period, we made meaningful progress in critical industries, including in the power tools and precision-torque arenas, providing customers with repeatability and reliability across essential repair markets. And, in the Tools Group, we continued our actions to match current technician preferences for quick payback items, sustaining our U.S. business and securing gains in our international operations, while making further investments to build on our decisive strengths. Recent months have seen significant disruptions, including fluctuating tariff levels, a prolonged U.S. government shutdown, and a number of unprecedented international and domestic incidents…conditions that served to raise the intensity of customer uncertainty. In that regard, the quarter demonstrated the special resilience of our markets and reconfirmed the advantages in our product, our brand, and our people that aided in navigating an increasingly difficult landscape. As we move into 2026, we’ll enhance the franchise network by fortifying our design efforts, our manufacturing, and our marketing, expand our already prominent position with shop owners and managers by serving the rising complexity of vehicle repair, and extend in critical industries by refining our capabilities to take full advantage of the growing need for customized solutions. At the same time, we’ll engage our Snap-on Value Creation Processes, driving improvements across the enterprise that we believe, when combined with our runways for growth, will produce substantial and strategic gains. Finally, I want to thank our franchisees and associates worldwide for their abundant contributions, for their ongoing dedication, and for their deep confidence in our possibilities as we proceed through this year and beyond.”

Segment Results - Fourth Quarter

Commercial & Industrial Group segment sales of $398.1 million in the quarter compared to $379.2 million last year, reflecting an $11.0 million, or 2.8%, organic gain and $7.9 million of favorable foreign currency translation. The organic increase is primarily due to sales gains with customers in critical industries, as well as higher activity in the power tools and specialty torque operations, partially offset by lower sales to U.S. markets by the Asia Pacific business.

Operating earnings of $60.6 million in the period, including the impact of increased sales in lower-margin businesses and a net benefit of $4.5 million related to the refinement of the segment’s footprint and go-to-market strategy, compared to $63.5 million in 2024. The operating margin (operating earnings as a percentage of segment sales) of 15.2% compared to 16.7% last year.

Snap-on Tools Group segment sales of $505.0 million in the quarter compared to $506.6 million last year, reflecting a $3.4 million, or 0.7%, organic sales decline, partially offset by $1.8 million of favorable foreign currency translation. The organic decrease is due to lower activity in the U.S., partially offset by higher sales in the segment’s international operations.

Operating earnings of $107.3 million in the period compared to $106.9 million in 2024. The operating margin of 21.2% was up compared to 21.1% a year ago.

Repair Systems & Information Group segment sales of $467.8 million in the quarter compared to $456.6 million last year, reflecting a $4.8 million, or 1.0%, organic sales increase and $6.4 million of favorable foreign currency translation. The organic gain includes higher activity with OEM dealerships and increased sales of diagnostic and repair information products to independent repair shop owners and managers, while sales of undercar equipment were essentially flat.

Operating earnings of $117.7 million in the period compared to $121.4 million in 2024. The operating margin of 25.2% compared to 26.6% last year.

Financial Services operating earnings of $74.4 million on revenue of $108.0 million in the quarter compared to operating earnings of $66.7 million on revenue of $100.5 million a year ago. Total originations of $285.1 million in the fourth quarter were unchanged from last year.

Corporate expenses in the fourth quarter of $20.4 million compared to $26.6 million last year.

Outlook

We believe that our markets and our operations possess and have demonstrated continuing and considerable resilience against the uncertainties of the current environment. In 2026, Snap-on expects to make ongoing progress along its decisive runways for coherent growth, leveraging capabilities already proven in the automotive repair arena, developing and expanding its professional customer base, not only in automotive repair, but in adjacent markets, additional geographies and other areas, including extending in critical industries, where the cost and penalties for failure are high. In pursuit of these initiatives, we project that capital expenditures in 2026 will approximate $100 million.

Snap-on currently anticipates that its full-year 2026 effective income tax rate will be in the range of 22% to 23%.

Non-GAAP Measures

References in this release to “organic sales” refer to sales from continuing operations calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), adjusted to exclude acquisition-related sales and the impact of foreign currency translation. Management evaluates the company’s sales performance based on organic sales growth, which primarily reflects growth from the company’s existing businesses as a result of increased output, expanded customer base, geographic expansion, new product development and pricing changes, and excludes sales contributions from acquired operations the company did not own as of the comparable prior-year reporting period. Organic sales also exclude the effects of foreign currency translation as foreign currency translation is subject to volatility that can obscure underlying business trends. Management believes that the non-GAAP financial measure of organic sales is meaningful to investors as it provides them with useful information to aid in identifying underlying growth trends in the company’s businesses and facilitates comparisons of its sales performance with prior periods.
