For the fiscal year 2026, Sherwin-Williams' profit is expected to grow 3% annually to $11.77 per share. Its EPS is further likely to improve 13.7% year over year to $13.38 in FY2027.

Sherwin-Williams stock has declined marginally over the past year, while the S&P 500 Index ($SPX) has surged 20.2%. The stock has also underperformed the State Street Materials Select Sector SPDR ETF (XLB), which had delivered a 13.8% return over the same period.

On June 3, Sherwin-Williams shares gained more than 1% after the company and Nippon Paint announced they were ending their joint pursuit of Akzo Nobel N.V.. The decision came after Akzo Nobel rejected two all-cash takeover proposals, prompting the companies to walk away rather than pursue a binding offer. Investors appeared to view the move positively, as it removed the uncertainty surrounding a large-scale acquisition and reflected Sherwin-Williams' disciplined approach to capital allocation.

Among the 24 analysts covering the stock, the consensus rating is a "Moderate Buy" overall. That includes 11 "Strong Buy" ratings, two "Moderate Buy" ratings, and 11 "Holds." The mean price target of $372.10 indicates a 5.6% upside from current levels.
