McCormick Q3 sales up 3%, adjusted EPS $0.85, but 2025 profit outlook is cut

Mixed earnings Written later 2.02

McCormick reported third-quarter fiscal 2025 net sales of $1.72 billion, up 3% from a year earlier, with reported EPS of $0.84 versus $0.83 and adjusted EPS of $0.85 versus $0.83. The company reaffirmed its 2025 sales growth outlook but lowered its operating income and earnings per share outlook because of rising commodity costs and incremental tariffs. For shareholders, sales held up while the expected fiscal 2025 profit is lower.

Net sales were $1,724.9 million versus $1,679.8 million a year earlier, with organic growth of 2%, led by volume.
Gross profit margin was 37.4% versus 38.7% a year earlier, and adjusted gross profit margin was 37.5%.
Adjusted EPS guidance for fiscal 2025 is now $3.00 to $3.05, down from $3.03 to $3.08 in the June 2025 guide.
Reported EPS guidance is now $2.95 to $3.00, down from $2.98 to $3.03; the net sales growth outlook of 0% to 2% was reaffirmed.

Briefs are written by AI from the filing text and can contain mistakes — open the filing before acting on anything. Impact (1-5) and tone are the AI's reading of the filing for shareholders, not a price forecast. Not investment advice.

Briefs marked “Written later” were written in November 2026 for filings that were by then more than three weeks old, so months before mid-October 2026 hold a selection: every material 8-K of the past year for the 100 largest companies we cover and the last 15 important 8-Ks of every other one. Briefs the number check holds back are not shown or counted. Also: the last 45 days, briefs by company, A–Z and the live SEC filings wire.
