Central Garden & Pet reported fiscal 2026 third-quarter net sales of $882 million, an 8% decline from the prior year, driven by the exit of its pet distribution business. Organic sales grew 2%, and GAAP diluted EPS was $1.45 versus $1.52 previously. The company raised its full-year non-GAAP diluted EPS guidance to $2.85 or better. Following the quarter, Central entered a definitive agreement to acquire an 80% interest in European pet supplies leader TRIXIE for up to €400 million ($430 million), expected to close in fiscal 2027. The company operates in the consumer goods sector, manufacturing and distributing products for pets and gardens.
