WD-40 Sales Surge 24%, Reaching Record Highs

WD-40 Company announced a substantial 24% rise in fiscal third-quarter sales, totaling $195.1 million for the period ending May 31, 2026. This growth was primarily fueled by a record-breaking 26% surge in maintenance products, which constitute 97% of total net sales. Sales in the Americas region saw a robust 29% increase, largely propelled by the WD-40 Multi-Use Product in the U.S. and Latin America.

The company's CEO, Steve Brass, highlighted that initiatives like a limited-edition can collaboration with Disney Entertainment and The Home Depot were instrumental in driving incremental sales in the U.S. While celebrating these achievements, Brass acknowledged that the company expects temporary pressure on gross margins due to elevated input costs. However, WD-40 has implemented strategies aimed at supporting margin recovery over time, demonstrating a focus on long-term operational health.
