Stanley Black & Decker 4Q Profit Falls As Tools Sales Decline

Dow Jones02-04 19:24

By Nicholas G. Miller

Stanley Black & Decker reported lower fourth-quarter profit as tariffs and weak consumer spending on do-it-yourself projects weigh on the company's business.

The company reported net income of $158.2 million, or $1.04 a share, down from $194.9 million, or $1.28 a share, the year prior.

Adjusted earnings were $1.41 a share. Analysts polled by FactSet expected $1.28 a share.

Sales fell 1% to $3.68 billion. Wall Street expected $3.78 billion. The company's tool and outdoor sales fell 2% as lower volume offset higher pricing.

The company guided for 2026 adjusted earnings of $4.90 to $5.70 a share. Analysts see 2026 adjusted earnings of $5.63 a share.

The company raised prices last year to help offset tariff costs. Chief Executive Christopher Nelson said in November the company was seeing "prevailing macroeconomic uncertainty."

A stagnant remodeling and repair market has weighed on the building products and tools industry. High interest rates and affordability concerns have discouraged both home sales and renovation activity.
