what happened
According to TradingView, IP's third-quarter sales rose 7.3% year on year, and basic earnings per share gained 21.4%. Growth in Hydraulics offset weaker demand for Water Jetting.
Organic sales for the quarter grew 3.8%, and the EBITDA margin came in at 22.7%. The FY26 margin guidance of 22.0%–22.5% was left unchanged. Free cash flow is expected to consolidate the record FY25 result. Both divisions are also expected to grow organically in the fourth quarter.

why it matters
For investors, two points stand out: the company kept its guidance and posted higher profit despite weakness in one division. The gap between reported sales growth (7.3%) and organic growth (3.8%) needs clarification in the filing, since organic growth better reflects underlying business momentum.
