Valvoline IncQ3 earnings beat with revenue, EBITDA, and EPS growth, plus raised guidance.

Valvoline reported fiscal third-quarter 2026 results with system-wide store sales surpassing $1 billion for the first time, rising 19% to $1.05 billion. Net revenues increased 24% to $544.6 million, adjusted EBITDA rose 25% to $162.4 million, and adjusted EPS grew 21% to $0.57. The company added 47 net new stores, bringing the total network to 2,456 locations, and raised its full-year same-store sales guidance to 7.5% to 8% while narrowing adjusted EBITDA guidance to $550 million to $560 million. Management cited the closure of the Strait of Hormuz as driving lubricant cost inflation of $5 to $7 per oil change, but said its supplier relationship gives it reliable access to product. The Breeze acquisition contributed to results, with 12 stores converted to the Valvoline brand and performance slightly ahead of expectations.
