The Sherwin-Williams Company (SHW) has been in the financial spotlight recently owing to its strong performance. Listed among potentially the best
Monopoly and Dow stocks, the company has been lauded by investors for its impressive
107% return over the last 5 years and as being part of the prestigious
Dividend Aristocrats. The company's demonstrated performance has seen it placed in the 100,000% Return Club and even labeled the
Top Stock for beginners in 2025. Despite a recent 7% price dip and a
$9.3b market cap drop, the company has reported
robust earnings. Among the significant moments was the
$1.15B acquisition of Brazil's iconic Suvinil Brand, fortifying its market position. The company also made a strategic step in its leadership with
Consumer Goods Veteran Robert Gamgort joining the Board. Its Q1 2025 earnings topped EPS by 5c, and the company successfully completed a share buyback. Importantly, it also declared a dividend of $0.79 per Common Share and reaffirmed its 2025 guidance, even in the face of lower than expected Q1 sales targets.
