The Middleby Corporation reported strong growth in its core businesses but a net loss driven by a major divestiture. For the quarter ended April 4, 2026, net sales from continuing operations rose to $839.9 million, up 15% year over year, with Commercial Foodservice and Food Processing both growing, especially internationally.
Net earnings from continuing operations were $85.3 million, but a $135.4 million loss from discontinued operations, mainly the sale of a 51% stake in the Residential Kitchen Equipment Group, led to a total net loss of $50.1 million and basic diluted loss per share of $1.06.

Middleby used part of the proceeds to reduce total debt from $2.2 billion to $1.9 billion and repurchased 2.39 million shares for about $374.8 million. Management is also targeting a July 6, 2026 spin-off of its Food Processing business into Midera Food Processing, Inc., subject to customary approvals, while noting ongoing pressures from tariffs, inflation, and supply chain constraints.
