Valvoline reported strong store and same-store sales growth, marking a consistent upward trend in revenue and EBITDA. However, the company faced challenges with higher capital expenditures, increased product costs, and a higher leverage ratio due to the Breeze acquisition. While financial performance was solid, these challenges suggest a need for cautious optimism.
Company Guidance
During the Valvoline Inc. 4Q Earnings Conference Call for fiscal year 2025, the company reported robust growth across various metrics and provided guidance for fiscal year 2026. System-wide store sales reached $3.5 billion with a double-digit increase, marking the nineteenth consecutive year of same-store sales growth. The total number of stores grew to 2,180 after the addition of 170 new locations. Adjusted EBITDA also saw double-digit growth, fueled by investments in technology and refranchising impacts. Net revenues and same-store sales growth hit the midpoint of the guidance range, while adjusted EBITDA exceeded it. However, adjusted EPS of $1.59 per share came in at the low end, influenced by higher-than-expected capital expenditures. For fiscal 2026, the company anticipates system-wide same-store sales growth between 4% and 6%, with a significant increase in new stores, aided by the upcoming Breeze Auto Care acquisition, which is expected to close on December 1. Adjusted EPS is forecasted to range from $1.60 to $1.70 per share, factoring in a $0.20 per share impact from interest expenses related to the acquisition. The company maintains its strategic focus on core business growth, sustainable network expansion, and innovation to meet evolving customer needs.
