RV revenue declined 15%, reflecting soft wholesale unit shipments in the RV industry

Diversification Cushions RV Revenue Decline

Patrick Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ:PATK), a leading component solutions provider for the Outdoor Enthusiast and Housing markets, reported net sales of $975 million for the third quarter ended September 27, 2026, essentially unchanged from $976 million in Q3 2025. This resilient performance reflects the benefits of Patrick's diversified end market strategy, as strong growth in Powersports (+30%) and Marine (+14%), along with Housing revenue growth of 4%, nearly offset a 15% decrease in RV revenue.

The growth in Marine revenue was driven by higher estimated content per unit and increased estimated wholesale powerboat industry unit shipments. Powersports continued to benefit from solid Demand for utility-focused units and stronger attachment rates for cab enclosures. The 15% RV revenue decline was driven by soft industry wholesale unit shipments, reflecting ongoing challenges in the recreational vehicle market.

Profitability and Cash Flow

Operating income was $50 million with an Operating Margin of 5.1%, compared to Operating Income of $66 million and a margin of 6.8% in Q3 2025. Excluding merger-related expenses, restructuring costs, and other non-recurring items, adjusted operating margin was 6.8%, flat compared to the prior-year period.

Net income was $21 million, with Diluted Earnings per Share of $0.64, compared to $35 million and $1.01 per diluted share in Q3 2025. Adjusted Net Income was $34 million, or $1.03 per diluted share, compared to $35 million, or $1.01, in the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA increased 3% to $116 million, with the adjusted EBITDA margin expanding 40 basis points to 11.9%.

For the first nine months of 2026, Cash Flow provided by Operating Activities was $147 million, compared to $199 million in the prior-year period. Free cash flow on a trailing twelve-month basis was $203 million. The company returned $15 million to shareholders through regular quarterly dividends, and available Liquidity was $716 million at quarter-end, with total net Leverage of 2.9x.

Strategic Focus and Capital Allocation

CEO Andy Nemeth noted the company's continued focus on managing through market headwinds while preserving operational capacity, capabilities, and talent to serve customers. Patrick is making strategic adjustments in the RV segment to align with lower wholesale volumes while maintaining its competitive positioning for when demand recovers. The company continues to pursue strategic investments supported by its free cash flow generation.

Pending Merger with LCI Industries

As previously announced on June 30, 2026, Patrick Industries signed a definitive agreement with LCI Industries to combine in an all-stock merger. The registration statement on Form S-4 was declared effective by the SEC on October 19, 2026, and a special meeting of shareholders to vote on the transaction is scheduled for November 18, 2026. Additional information about the proposed combination is available at PatrickandLippertTogether.com.

The merger with LCI Industries would create a significantly larger and more diversified component solutions provider for the recreational vehicle, Marine, Powersports, and Housing markets. Patrick continues to execute its quarterly operational plan while the shareholder vote and closing process advance.

Patrick Industries demonstrated operational resilience in Q3 2026 as its diversified portfolio of end markets cushioned the impact of the challenging RV wholesale environment. The pending merger with LCI Industries represents a major strategic development that could reshape the company's competitive positioning and scale in the coming years. Investors will be watching the shareholder vote outcome and any updates on the RV market trajectory.
