Guidance raises and telecom cost cuts: the week in Q3 earnings

Third-quarter earnings dominated: SharkNinja, Hagerty, Marriott Vacations and CPI raised outlooks, while Charter and TELUS took impairments and cut costs.

· Times Beats newsroom

Third-quarter 2026 results made up the week's releases, and several companies raised full-year targets. SharkNinja lifted its net sales growth outlook to 18.0% to 19.0%, Hagerty raised its Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA ranges, Marriott Vacations Worldwide raised the midpoint of its contract sales and Adjusted EBITDA guidance, and CPI Card Group raised its revenue growth and Free Cash Flow guidance. Hecla Mining improved its silver cost guidance and raised the low end of its production range.

The two telecom operators reported large non-cash charges alongside new cost programs. Charter Communications booked a $6.3 billion franchise impairment and is targeting $2 billion in annualized run-rate operating expense savings over 18 months. TELUS took an $800 million goodwill impairment tied to TELUS Health and set an efficiency program targeting about $900 million in annualized cash savings exiting 2028. Deal-related items also shaped results: Brink's excluded NCR Atleos acquisition costs from non-GAAP figures and now expects that deal to close in early January 2027, while Hagerty's results reflected costs from its Markel Fronting Arrangement.
