What Snap-on Inc reported on October 22, 2026

The quarter ending October 3, 2026, against the same quarter a year earlier.

These are single quarters, not a trailing year — the figures elsewhere on this site cover twelve months and will be much larger. A seasonal business swings a long way between the two: ServiceNow earns $2.0B of free cash flow in its December quarter and $0.5B in its June one.

Compared against the same quarter a year earlier, not against an analyst forecast. A “beat” or “miss” needs a consensus estimate, which is licensed data we do not carry — and getting it wrong is worse than leaving it out.

What management said

“Our third quarter was mixed with varied outcomes among our business groups. The results were principally marked by the unprecedentedly accelerated rise in diesel prices, which in our mobile van channel prompted franchisees to reduce inventories despite very stable demand from their technician customers, substantially impacting the Tools Group in the period and overcoming what was an encouraging, record-setting performance in the Commercial & Industrial Group, led by gains in the critical industries and the precision torque arena,”

How the share price reacted

Releases land before the open or after the close, so the window runs from the close before the report day to the close of the session after it — the reaction is inside it either way.
