Third-quarter diluted earnings per share rose 75% year over year to $1.66, while operating income climbed 63% to $109.61 million; the year-earlier quarter included $29 million in impairment charges. Net sales rose to $962.6 million, as growth in most international markets was partially offset by lower U.S. sales. CEO Tim Boyle highlighted building momentum in the Columbia brand’s U.S. direct-to-consumer e-commerce business. Columbia narrowed its full-year 2026 guidance to diluted earnings per share of $4.65–$4.90 and net sales of $3.46 billion–$3.5 billion, raising both lower bounds.
