Top line: YETI's Q3 sales rose 4% to $509.4M (adjusted up 6% to $517.9M), short of the roughly $523.6M consensus, and it cut 2026 adjusted sales growth to about 6% from 7–8% and adjusted EPS to $2.90–$2.95 from $2.94–$3.00, citing "a more cautious consumer environment." The split inside the quarter is the story: wholesale grew 19% and international 19%, while DTC fell 6% on weaker U.S. owned e-commerce and Amazon. Lower net tariff costs added 200 basis points to gross margin (57.7% reported, 59.0% adjusted), and adjusted EPS of $0.91 beat by $0.06, but shares fell about 7%. (YETI, Investing.com)
