The quarter ended September 30, 2026 and Simpson Manufacturing published the results on October 26, 2026. Revenue and diluted EPS are shown against Q3 2025, the same quarter a year earlier, which takes seasonal swings out of the comparison.
- Simpson recast its 2025 results to move certain software amortization and quality assurance costs from general and administrative expense to cost of sales ($1.6 million in Q3 2025). Net sales, income from operations and EPS are unchanged.
- Q3 2025 income from operations included a $14.1 million net gain on disposal of assets. A sale of land in Stockton, California, expected to bring an $11.0 million gain, slipped from Q3 2026 to Q4 2026.

Segment lines are the figures writers cite most often, because they show where the growth in a quarter came from. Companies redraw their segments from time to time and restate the prior year to match, so a year-ago figure here can differ from the one printed a year ago. When that has happened, the note above says so.

- Q3 2026 (this page), reported Oct 26, 2026
What Simpson Manufacturing's revenue is made of
Simpson Manufacturing, the maker of Simpson Strong-Tie products, sells mostly wood construction products such as connectors, truss plates, fasteners and shearwalls: $534.1 million of its $638.1 million net sales in Q3 2026, or 83.7%. Concrete construction products, including adhesives, specialty chemicals and mechanical anchors, added $102.5 million, up 4.8%. (Simpson Manufacturing Q3 2026 release, Oct 26, 2026)
Simpson manages the business by geography. North America brought in $502.0 million, 78.7% of net sales, up 3.8% primarily on price increases and higher unit volumes. Europe fell 3.4% to $129.9 million on lower unit volumes, partly offset by price increases, and lost about $1.6 million to currency translation. Asia/Pacific added $6.3 million. (Simpson Manufacturing Q3 2026 release, Oct 26, 2026)
Simpson's CEO said net sales growth of 2.3% came from pricing actions while global volumes were relatively flat, against total U.S. housing starts of 1,344 thousand over the trailing twelve months, down 1.9%. Within North America, Simpson sells to residential, commercial, OEM, national retail and component manufacturer end markets. (Simpson Manufacturing Q3 2026 release, Oct 26, 2026; Simpson Manufacturing Form 10-Q, Q3 2026, Nov 5, 2026)
Steel is Simpson's main input cost. The 10-Q says steel prices have risen by more than 50% from the prior-year period, are at their highest level in more than four years, and face additional steel tariffs scheduled for 2027, and that Simpson expects further price increases effective in January 2027. North America gross margin slipped to 48.4% from 48.7% and Europe to 36.1% from 37.9%. (Simpson Manufacturing Form 10-Q, Q3 2026, Nov 5, 2026; Simpson Manufacturing Q3 2026 release, Oct 26, 2026)
Simpson's 10-K says a few large customers account for a significant portion of its net sales, and that distributor customers and builders have consolidated over time. Its October 2026 investor presentation says 25 of the top 30 builders are on a Simpson program, and that 275+ builders on its programs represent more than 50% of U.S. housing starts. (Simpson Manufacturing Form 10-K, 2025, Feb 27, 2026; Simpson Manufacturing investor presentation, October 2026, Oct 26, 2026)
What Simpson Manufacturing's EPS includes
Simpson Manufacturing's GAAP diluted EPS was $2.68 in Q3 2026, up 3.9% from $2.58, on net income of $109.1 million. Simpson reports no adjusted EPS; its one non-GAAP measure, Adjusted EBITDA, rose 7.4% to $167.2 million. (Simpson Manufacturing Q3 2026 release, Oct 26, 2026)
Simpson's income from operations rose only 0.2% to $141.0 million because Q3 2025 included a $14.1 million net gain on disposal of assets, against $65 thousand this year. The expected $11.0 million gain on the Stockton, California land sale moved to the fourth quarter. Total operating expenses fell 6.3% to $150.5 million, and North America income from operations rose 9.5% to $137.0 million. (Simpson Manufacturing Q3 2026 release, Oct 26, 2026)
Simpson's diluted share count fell to 40,738 thousand from 41,704 thousand. It repurchased 352,346 shares in the quarter at an average of $188.25 for $66.3 million, and on October 22, 2026 the board approved a new $1.0 billion repurchase authorization with no expiration date, replacing the prior $200.0 million one. Provision for income taxes was $37.2 million on income before taxes of $146.4 million. (Simpson Manufacturing Q3 2026 release, Oct 26, 2026)
Diluted EPS divides net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding in the quarter, plus the shares that options and other equity awards could add. Buybacks shrink that count and lift EPS for the same profit; share issuance and stock awards enlarge it.

A consensus figure is the average of the models published by the analysts who cover Simpson Manufacturing, collected by a data provider and revised up to the day of the report. A quarter that lands above it says how expectations were set as much as how the business did, and the share price on the day also reflects the guidance and the lines no consensus covers.
The consensus figures on this page are Yahoo Finance's, as pulled on the date shown. Each comes with the number of analysts behind it; the smaller that number, the more one revised estimate can move the average.

How to check SSD's figures yourself
Every number on this page can be traced to a document Simpson Manufacturing published. Checking one takes a couple of minutes, and it is worth doing before you quote a figure anywhere.
- The results release is the document linked in the source line above. Companies publish it on their investor relations site at the moment results go out, and it carries the headline tables: revenue, operating income, net income and EPS for the quarter and the year-ago quarter.
- The same release is filed with the SEC as Exhibit 99.1 to a Form 8-K under Item 2.02, usually on the day of the report. The SEC copy does not change after the fact, which makes it the safer thing to link when you cite a number.
- The quarterly report (Form 10-Q) follows within a few weeks and carries the full financial statements, the segment note and management's discussion of what changed. The fourth quarter is covered by the annual report (Form 10-K) instead.
- Restated comparisons are flagged in the notes on this page. When a company redraws its segments or changes how it adjusts EPS, it restates the year-ago column, so the year-ago figure in a new release can differ from the one printed a year ago. This page always uses the comparison in the newer release, because that is the like-for-like one.
