Daniel S. Jaffee, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “I am pleased to announce that after two consecutive quarters of challenging year-over-year comparisons, our recent results surpassed the prior year. Record third quarter consolidated net sales grew 9% and, combined with disciplined expense management, drove a 25% increase in net income despite inflationary pressure on cost of goods sold. Substantial cash generation also enabled us to continue returning value to our shareholders. While the ongoing conflict in the Middle East has contributed to broad market volatility, it did not have a material impact on our results for the third quarter. As we move into the final three months of our fiscal year, we expect to achieve our annual plan and surpass last year’s net income, although ongoing geopolitical unrest and related increases in transportation and input costs could create headwinds that may affect our ability to do so.”

Consolidated Results

As previously reported, the Company was impacted by Winter Storm Fern in January 2026, which disrupted Oil-Dri’s supply chain and affected customers’ ability to receive or pick up orders. Following the storm, operations recovered quickly, and service levels remained strong. During the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, the Company achieved fill rates of 99.9%, reflecting

operational resilience. As a result, our backlog declined by $2.2 million from the end of the prior quarter, causing a shift in revenue recognition into the third quarter of fiscal year 2026.

Consolidated net sales for the three months ended April 30, 2026 reached $126.3 million, up 9% from the prior year period. Higher revenues were achieved across both the Business to Business ("B2B") and Retail & Wholesale ("R&W") Products Groups, with elevated cat litter demand driving the majority of the growth.

Consolidated gross profit for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026 was $33.7 million, an increase of 2% over the prior year. Gross margins were 26.7% in the third quarter of fiscal year 2026 compared to 28.6% in the same period in fiscal year 2025. A 6% increase in per ton domestic cost of goods sold contributed to the erosion in margin.

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses were $16.6 million during the third quarter of fiscal year 2026 compared to $19.1 million in the prior year. This $2.5 million, or 13%, decline primarily resulted from a lower corporate bonus accrual.

Consolidated income from operations was $17.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, or 23% greater than the same period in fiscal year 2025. Higher sales coupled with lower SG&A expenses were partially offset by elevated per ton cost of goods sold.

Total other income, net was $800,000 for the three months ended April 30, 2026, compared to $300,000 in the same period last year.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2026, income tax expense rose to $3.4 million from $2.6 million in the prior-year period, driven by higher pre-tax income.

Consolidated net income for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026 was $14.5 million versus $11.6 million last year, representing a 25% improvement over the prior year.

Cash and cash equivalents for the three month period ended April 30, 2026 totaled $62.9 million compared to $50.5 million at the end of fiscal year 2025. Significant uses of cash during the third quarter of fiscal 2026 include capital investments for manufacturing infrastructure improvements and dividends.

Product Group Review

The B2B Products Group’s third quarter fiscal year 2026 revenues were $43.8 million, up 3% from the prior year. Year-over-year topline growth was generated by the Company’s agricultural and animal health businesses, while revenues from fluids purification products declined slightly. Sales of agricultural products reached $12.4 million, a 7% increase over last year, driven by elevated demand from new and existing customers and from order timing. Amlan International, Oil-Dri’s animal health business, reported sales of $6.4 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2026, up 10% over the prior year. This improvement was attributable to higher volumes, including additional demand from new end-user accounts gained during the year, as well as from the successful recovery of a portion of a distributor’s previously lost sales from a key customer. Revenues from fluids purification products totaled $25.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, reflecting a relatively steady performance, albeit a decrease of 1% from the prior year.

SG&A expenses within the B2B Products Group for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026 remained flat compared to the same period last year.

Operating income for the B2B Products Group was $13.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2026 compared to $13.4 million in the prior year period, reflecting a decrease of 3%. Higher net sales were offset by elevated cost of goods sold.

The R&W Products Group delivered record sales of $82.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, up 13% from the prior year. Gains were primarily driven by higher revenues from cat litter, and to a lesser extent, from industrial and sports products. Domestic cat litter sales, excluding co-packaged products, totaled $57.9 million for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, up 10% from the prior year period. This improvement was primarily due to higher demand and the shift of orders into the third quarter caused by delays from Winter Storm Fern. Crystal cat litter volumes reached record levels, and sales of lightweight and coarse litter products increased over the prior year. In addition, co-packaged cat litter sales surged 94% to a new record high in the third quarter, supported by an expanded product portfolio that now includes lightweight litter. These results are consistent with 13-week retail data ended April 18, 2026¹, which showed that the lightweight litter segment again outperformed the overall cat litter category. Domestic industrial and sports products achieved record sales of $12.7 million for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, up 3% from the third quarter of fiscal year 2025. Growth was driven by pricing actions to offset higher costs. The Company’s Canadian subsidiary reported a 2% revenue increase in the third quarter of fiscal year 2026 compared to the same period last year.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2026, SG&A expenses within the R&W Products Group decreased by $500,000, or 9%, from the prior year, primarily due to the timing of advertising spending.

Operating income for the R&W Products Group was $11.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, an increase of 16% compared to the same period last year. Higher sales and decreased SG&A expenses drove this improvement.

The Company will host its third quarter fiscal year 2026 earnings discussion virtually via a live webcast on Tuesday, June 9, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. Central Time. Participation details are available on the Company’s website’s Events page.

Oil-Dri Increases Dividends for 23rd Consecutive Year

and Authorizes Stock Repurchases

CHICAGO—(June 3, 2026)—The Board of Directors of Oil-Dri Corporation of America (NYSE: ODC) today declared a two-cent increase in the Company’s quarterly cash dividend per share of Common Stock, marking the 23rd consecutive year of dividend growth. The new dividend will be $0.225 per share of the Company’s Common Stock and $0.168 per share of the Company’s Class B Stock, an approximate 10% increase for both classes of stock.

Oil-Dri has paid cash dividends continuously each year since 1974, demonstrating the Company’s sustained fiscal strength and disciplined capital management over time.

The cash dividends will be payable on August 21, 2026 to stockholders of record at the close of business on August 7, 2026.

The Board of Directors also authorized the repurchase of up to 500,000 shares of Common Stock. These shares are in addition to the 172,261 shares of Common Stock and 208,197 shares of Class B Stock available for repurchase as of April 30, 2026 under prior authorizations from the Board of Directors.

“Our strong financial foundation allows us to further raise our dividend following the increase announced in December, while also enhancing our share repurchase program,” said Daniel S. Jaffee, President and Chief Executive Officer of Oil‑Dri. “These actions reflect our confidence in the Company’s future and reinforce our commitment to thoughtful capital allocation and long‑term shareholder returns.”

The shares may be repurchased from time to time in open market transactions at prevailing market prices, in privately negotiated transactions, or by other means in accordance with federal securities laws. The actual timing, number and value of shares repurchased under the program will be determined by management at its discretion and will depend on a number of factors, including the market price of Oil-Dri's stock and general market and economic conditions.

The Company’s press release outlining its performance for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026 will be issued after the close of the U.S. stock market on Monday, June 8, 2026.
