CEO Sumit Singh said the results give the company confidence to raise its full-year revenue and profitability outlook, which matters to shareholders because it signals stronger expected growth and earnings.
Net sales rose 7.3% to $3.33 billion; excluding SmartPak and Modern Animal contributions, growth was 5.7%.
Diluted EPS was $0.20, up $0.06 from $0.14; adjusted diluted EPS was $0.36, up $0.03.
Adjusted EBITDA rose 23.7% to $226.7 million, with adjusted EBITDA margin of 6.8%, up 90 basis points.

Chewy reported fiscal 2025 net sales of $12.60 billion, up 6.2%, and adjusted EBITDA of $719.2 million, up 26.1%. Full-year GAAP net income fell to $222.8 million from $392.7 million, and diluted EPS fell to $0.52 from $0.91, mainly because the prior year included a $275.7 million tax benefit from releasing a valuation allowance.

Chewy's board appointed Vice President of Finance Christopher S. Deppe as chief financial officer effective February 23, 2026, ending an interim arrangement in which Chief Accounting Officer William Billings served as principal financial officer during the CFO search. The company's February 24, 2026 press release also reaffirmed its guidance for fiscal year 2025 and stated its long-term margin target of 10% Adjusted EBITDA.
Deppe's offer letter sets an annual base salary of $450,000 and a 2026 target bonus equal to 100% of eligible earnings.
Deppe receives a one-time RSU equity grant valued at $8,781,141 as of the grant date, subject to Board approval after his start date.
Billings was removed as interim principal financial officer but remains Chief Accounting Officer; the filing says the removal was not due to any disagreement with the company.
