On October 26, 2026, Dorman Products, Inc. announced its operating results for the third fiscal quarter ended September 26, 2026. The company reported net sales of $561.7 million, marking a 3.3% increase compared to the same period last year. However, diluted earnings per share (EPS) dropped by 20% to $1.98.
