Middleby Corp Financials

Middleby's dominant mechanic is high cash conversion with minimal reinvestment, letting a mostly flat revenue base finance buybacks.
From FY2023 through FY2026, operating cash flow stayed well above net income—$629M versus$401M in FY2023 and$630M versus$367M in FY2026—while capex stayed only$59M to$71M , so the business behaves more like a cash-conversion machine than a revenue grower. That is why it could absorb a weaker FY2026 operating margin of18.0% and still fund$724M of buybacks.
