+1 new source since this summary was written
Domino's Pizza announced its third‑quarter 2026 results on October 13. Global retail sales grew 3.2% (ex‑FX) and the company added 175 net stores worldwide. Diluted EPS rose 12.7% to $4.60 and revenue increased 3.4% (up $38.5 million YoY). The board declared a $1.99‑per‑share dividend and repurchased $73.6 million of stock, while U.S. same‑store sales grew only 0.3% and international same‑store sales 0.2%.
Why it matters
The earnings beat and the dividend plus buyback improve cash returns for shareholders, but the weak same‑store sales and lowered U.S. unit‑growth guidance may keep the stock under pressure, as noted by the company’s commentary.
