Fastenal’s strongest sourced fact today is the latest filed financial rail: revenue from contracts with customers of $2.20B, operating income of $447.6M, and net income attributable to the parent of $339.8M in the 10-Q period ending 2026-03-31, according to SEC EDGAR companyfacts evidence.

The company story in this source pack is an operating equity with real balance-sheet weight rather than a ticker floating free of its filings. The supplied facts show assets of $5.21B, stockholders’ equity attributable to the parent of $3.99B, cash and cash equivalents of $308.6M, and inventory of $1.69B for the 10-Q period ending 2026-03-31. The product rail is not a new launch or sales release here; it is the filed operating base, the inventory line, and the formal company filings that show what the public record can prove.

The earnings file is compact but useful. For the 10-Q period ending 2026-03-31, Fastenal reported diluted earnings per share of $0.30 and diluted weighted average shares outstanding of 1.15B. Net cash provided by operating activities was $378.4M, payments to acquire property, plant, and equipment were $58.9M, and inventories decreased by $52.5M. Those figures give the report a cash-and-working-capital centre without inventing margin commentary, guidance, segment pressure, dividend policy, or buyback activity not supplied in the rail.

No chart route is supplied in the evidence, so this file does not pretend to see candles, levels, support, resistance, or TradingView context. The market mechanism available here is the public-company source path: SEC EDGAR filings, SEC submissions JSON, SEC companyfacts JSON, and the named filing sequence from June and April 2026.

What changed in the named news rail is filing activity. SEC EDGAR lists multiple Fastenal Form 3 and Form 3/A filings dated 2026-06-15, a Fastenal 8-K dated 2026-06-12, and a Fastenal 11-K dated 2026-06-04. The April 2026 official SEC EDGAR 8-K evidence says shareholders approved the Fastenal Company Employee Restricted Stock Unit Plan and the Fastenal Company Non-Employee Director Stock and Restricted Stock Unit Plan at the 2026 Annual Meeting.

What remains unproven is equally important. The supplied evidence does not name a new product release, customer win, management forecast, analyst action, price move, dividend change, buyback, segment mix, or current valuation. A deeper file would need those source rails before making claims about market reaction, operating acceleration, or capital-return intent.
