YETI Holdings Inc

YETI Holdings reported second quarter fiscal 2026 sales of approximately $484 million, up 9% year-over-year, and raised its full-year adjusted operating margin and earnings per share guidance. Coolers & Equipment sales grew 16% to $232 million, while Drinkware sales increased 2% to $241 million. The company now expects full-year adjusted operating income margin of approximately 14.9%, up from prior guidance of 14.6%, and adjusted earnings per diluted share of $2.94 to $3.00, representing growth of 19% to 21%. YETI also repurchased $130 million in shares during the quarter, bringing total repurchases since 2024 to over $600 million.

YETI Holdings lifted its full-year adjusted EPS guidance after second-quarter results on 13 August 2026 beat earnings expectations and showed stronger margins, while sales growth targets were kept unchanged. The company's shares trade at US$50.84 after a 24.94% 90-day share price return and a 43.78% one-year total shareholder return. The most followed valuation narrative points to a fair value of US$53.73, framing the stock as 5.4% undervalued, driven by accelerated international expansion in Europe, Japan, and Asia. YETI Holdings still faces pressure from intense drinkware competition and ongoing tariff and supply chain issues.
