The company lost $0.01 per share, falling well short of the $0.02 consensus estimate by 144.44%, even as net sales of $1.52 billion came in 0.54% above expectations, though that top line still represented a 2.4% year-over-year decline. The most compelling driver behind the period was aggressive cost discipline: operating income surged 83.2% to $31.86 million and Adjusted EBITDA climbed 10.6% to $106.29 million, with management noting results came in well above their own outlook. For the full fiscal year, the turnaround was stark, with Petco swinging to net income of $9.07 million from a loss of $101.82 million. Looking ahead, CEO Joel Anderson signaled a shift toward growth, with fiscal 2026 guidance calling for net sales flat to up 1.5% and Adjusted EBITDA of $415 million to $430 million, as the company targets a return to positive comparable sales.
