  "account": "Henry Schein reported better-than-expected third-quarter 2026 non-GAAP earnings of $1.56 a share, surpassing the forecasted $1.36, while revenue totaled $3.47 billion, slightly below the predicted $3.48 billion. Sales for the company increased by 4.0% compared to the previous year, driven by a surge in U.S. dental merchandise demand and margin improvements. However, the stock experienced a 5.33% decline in premarket trading, falling from $86.62 to $82, indicating investors were primarily focused on the modest sales shortfall and the company's future outlook rather than the earnings beat.",
