“Our second quarter results underscore the strength and resilience of our diversified platform, the continued dedication of our team and our focus on continuing to drive both organic and strategic growth despite uncertain and volatile market conditions,” said Patrick Industries CEO Andy Nemeth. “Our strategic diversification across distinct end markets continued to support our overall performance in what has been a challenging consumer discretionary environment. Growth in our marine, powersports, and housing businesses largely offset a double-digit percentage decline in our RV end market revenue amid equally soft RV industry wholesale unit shipments. Despite this uncertainty, we remain encouraged by the level of discipline across the value chain in each of our markets, as our teams, the OEMs we serve and dealers continue to focus on measured production schedules and prudent inventory management, supporting healthy long-term industry dynamics. Across Patrick, we are staying close to our customers, investing in innovation, and driving additional operational efficiencies while preserving the flexibility to exceed customer expectations.”

Net sales of $1.04 billion declined less than 1% from the second quarter of 2025. Revenue growth in the company’s marine, powersports and housing end markets predominantly offset the impact of a decline in RV end market revenue, which was related to a 16% decline in RV industry wholesale unit shipments in the quarter. The Company’s strong content per unit growth in Marine and a continued increase in attachment rates within the Company’s Powersports business were instrumental in delivering solid revenue performance overall.

Operating income was $77 million compared to $87 million in the second quarter of 2025. Operating margin was 7.4% compared to 8.3% in the same period last year. The year-over-year decline partially reflected a number of factors, including the impact of a double-digit percentage decline in RV industry wholesale unit shipments, higher oil and fuel prices and the related fuel surcharges, and merger-related costs. Adjusted operating margin1 was 7.5% compared to 8.3% in the second quarter of 2025.

Net income increased 34% to $43 million, or $1.28 per diluted share, compared to $32 million, or $0.96 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2025. Adjusted net income in the second quarter of 2026 was $44 million, or $1.29 per diluted share, compared to adjusted net income of $51 million, or $1.50 per diluted share in the prior-year period. Adjusted net income in the second quarter of 2025 excludes one-time expenses related to a legal settlement. Reported and adjusted diluted earnings per share in the second quarter of 2026 include approximately $0.07 of dilution from the company’s convertible notes and related warrants compared to $0.03 in the prior-year period.

“Our strategic investments have positioned Patrick to better support our customers in more ways than ever before,” said Patrick Industries President Jeff Rodino. “As our OEM customers continue to focus on affordability, efficiency, labor productivity, product differentiation and managing retail demand patterns, we are bringing forward solutions in partnership that are practical, scalable and aligned with the needs of today’s market. Whether through new product development, component and composite solutions, electrical systems, aftermarket capabilities, advanced manufacturing, value engineering or The Experience, our teams are working directly with customers to help solve the challenges that matter most to their businesses. Our solutions-oriented approach supports organic growth while helping customers deliver more value to the end consumer. While near-term demand conditions remain challenging, we believe our portfolio of brands, technical expertise and ability to execute across our end markets continue to reinforce Patrick as a trusted partner across business cycles.”
