Hot Shot

Hot Shot Market Overview

Grips Intelligence in-store data tracked across Amazon, lowes.com, menards.com and acehardware.com from January 1 to August 31, 2026 shows Hot Shot, a brand owned by Spectrum Brands Holdings (NYSE: SPB), generating nearly half of its year-to-date revenue on Amazon at 47.7% share. Lowe's follows as the second-largest channel at 23.3%, with Menards at 18.5% and Ace Hardware contributing the remaining 10.1%, indicating a distribution footprint weighted toward marketplace sales but still meaningfully diversified across three home-improvement retailers. Revenue momentum has been positive through the summer, climbing 25.8% over the June-to-August window and 4.9% in the most recent month alone. That growth came despite softening price realization, as the average selling price slipped to $8.67 in the latest month, down 0.6% sequentially and 5.1% across the three-month period. With an average product price of $8.99 year-to-date, the trend suggests volume gains and promotional pricing are driving the brand's top-line expansion rather than premiumization.
