Chewy, Inc. financial performance and AI integration
Overview
Chewy, Inc. reported second-quarter 2026 financial results showing a 7.3 percent year-over-year increase in net sales to $3.33 billion. Despite a net income of $80.5 million and an adjusted EBITDA of $226.7 million, the company’s stock declined by 7.5 percent, a movement that appeared to align with broader sector trends. Following these results, CEO Sumit Singh raised the company’s full-year 2026 revenue outlook, projecting annual net sales between $13.46 billion and $13.57 billion.
Building on its financial performance, the company announced expectations for artificial intelligence to drive approximately $50 million in cost savings by fiscal 2027. CEO Sumit Singh indicated that AI technology has moved beyond the experimental stage, impacting customer service, pharmacy operations, veterinary care, and internal tools. Current implementations include ‘Cai’, an AI assistant for mobile users that resolves approximately 30% of chats without human intervention, and ‘Callie’, a voice agent used at select Chewy Vet Care clinics for appointment management.
