Ringing the bell: 30 years of commitment to consumers and investors

March 10, 2026

ScottsMiracle-Gro recently celebrated 30 years on the New York Stock Exchange, marking a journey of growth rooted in a deep understanding of consumers, a focus on long-term value creation and the relentless pursuit of innovation. Over our 158-year history, we’ve evolved into a strong legacy brand with a portfolio including Scotts, Miracle-Gro, Tomcat, Ortho and Bonnie Plants. Today, we’re the leading marketer of lawn and garden products in North America, and our brands are market-leading in their categories. A lot has changed in the 30 years since we’ve been on the exchange, but there are some things that remain constant. It starts with our commitment to the following:

We put the consumer at the center of all we do.

We find the need and we fill it. We’re not only leading with our purpose to GroMoreGood, but we are also seeking to understand what consumers want and need and then develop solutions that help them enjoy their lawns, gardens and yards in their own way. Naturals and organics are increasingly important to today’s consumers as much as performance and efficacy.

We relentlessly pursue innovation grounded in science, technology and data.

This ranges from lawn and garden products that are safe and work in concert with the environment to the application of technology and AI to make the growing experience more accessible and enjoyable. Educating consumers on the benefits of lawns and gardens is critical to helping people achieve success in their yards and homes.

We strive to be the safe, reliable stock in investor portfolios.

We are focused on driving long-term value creation and delivering greater shareholder returns with a capital allocation strategy that includes continual investments in our brands and business. We couple this with a consistent and robust dividend.

We are proud of our historic legacy, and we've had a great 30 years on NYSE. In our view, the future is even brighter.
