Separately, shares fell over 6% in one session, the largest percentage drop since July 2025, following the annual shareholder meeting where directors were elected and auditors ratified. The company also named Eric Swanson as Vice President of Investor Relations, a hire with prior experience at Sherwin-Williams.
Looking ahead, the next earnings report is scheduled for 4 November 2026, before the open, 45 days out and beyond a typical 20-trading-day hold.
