Cadre Holdings raises FY 2026 guidance and launches $100 million share buyback

Cadre Holdings reported Q3 2026 revenue of about $202.9 million, up roughly 30% year‑over‑year, and net income of $16.0 million, up 46%. The company lifted its full‑year 2026 sales guidance to a range of $756 million–$769 million (some releases cite $762.5 million) and its adjusted EBITDA guidance to $140 million–$144 million (some releases cite $142 million). It also announced its first share‑repurchase program authorizing up to $100 million of stock.

The higher guidance expands the revenue and EBITDA targets investors had for FY 2026, potentially increasing the valuation ceiling for the stock. The $100 million buyback signals confidence in cash generation and may support the share price by returning capital to shareholders.
