Floor & Decor remains a hold as comps and transactions are still negative, and adj. EPS was flat in Q2 2026. Q2 sales growth was driven by new store openings, but underlying profitability and margin trends remain weak, with adj. gross margin down 20bps to 43.7%. Pro sales and digital initiatives show promise, but neither has yet delivered positive transaction growth or a clear earnings bridge.
For the first time in more than a year, Floor & Decor reported a quarter and did not cut its annual guidance. Within different customer segments, the Pro market is the more attractive one, and thankfully, the Pro mix shift continued its steady march in 2Q'26. What I found most interesting from this call is what management intends to do with the tariff refunds. They laid out three buckets.
Floor & Decor NYSE: FND reported second-quarter fiscal 2026 adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.58, unchanged from a year earlier, as the company managed expenses and generated free cash flow despite continued softness in large discretionary flooring projects.
