Wesco Q3 Sales Hit $7.2B as Data Center Revenue Jumps 55%
PITTSBURGH – October 29, 2026 -- Wesco International reported record third-quarter net sales of $7.2 billion, up 17% year over year and 8% sequentially, and raised its full-year 2026 outlook as backlog grew about 80%.
Data center sales rise about 55% to $1.8 billion
Data center sales reached $1.8 billion, up roughly 55% from a year earlier. Non-data center sales rose 7%. Organic sales grew 16.6%, with volume gains in all three segments (CSS, EES and UBS) and a favorable price effect. Organic sales for the first nine months rose 13.9%.
Total company backlog hit a record, and each of the three business units set its own backlog record. CEO John Engel said the growth is fueled by multi-year customer commitments, and that the past five consecutive quarters of double-digit sales growth show a growth profile that extends beyond data centers.
