“Our fourth-quarter results were in line with our expectations and reflect disciplined execution in a dynamic environment,” said Chair and CEO Linda Rendle. “Throughout fiscal year 2026, we strengthened our business despite continued consumer and macroeconomic pressures.

Together, these actions have strengthened our foundation and position us well to navigate a challenging operating environment as we work to return to organic sales growth.”
