SharkNinja, Inc. SN is sustaining growth across its product portfolio, with established franchises and newer offerings contributing to category strength. In the second quarter of fiscal 2026, net sales increased 22.2% year over year to $1.77 billion. All four major categories recorded growth, reinforcing the breadth of the company’s business model.
Cooking and Beverage Appliances was the largest contributor to incremental sales, with revenues rising 36.5% to $499 million. The Ninja Luxe Café espresso machine and Ninja Crispi drove performance. Beauty and Home Environment Appliances delivered the fastest growth, with sales increasing 65.3% to $285.8 million, supported by continued strength in skincare and fan products.
Established categories remained important contributors. Food Preparation Appliances sales increased 13.3% to $458.6 million, supported by strong blending demand and the Ninja BlendBOSS. Cleaning Appliances remained the largest category, with sales advancing 4.1% to $522 million. Cordless vacuums and carpet extractors supported growth, demonstrating continued demand within the company’s core franchises.
Product innovation is central to sustaining this momentum. Management said roughly 20 of its 25 annual product launches target existing categories. Recent introductions included the Shark Luxe Home collection, CarpetForce lineup and PowerDetect Transformer. Management noted that existing categories have typically delivered mid- to high-single-digit growth over the past three years.
Category strength supports SharkNinja’s improved fiscal 2026 outlook. The company raised its net sales growth forecast to 16-17% from 11.5-12.5% previously. Stronger underlying operating performance underpins the revision, while continued investment in existing franchises, new categories and international expansion provides a foundation for further growth.
