Columbus Mckinnon ( (CMCO) ) has issued an update.
On January 14, 2026, Columbus McKinnon announced select estimated preliminary unaudited results for its third quarter ended December 31, 2025, reporting expected net sales of $250 million to $260 million for the quarter and $747 million to $757 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2026. The company anticipates Adjusted EBITDA of $38 million to $40 million for the quarter and $115 million to $117 million for the nine-month period, with Adjusted EPS projected between $0.58 and $0.63 for the quarter and $1.70 to $1.75 year-to-date. Management also estimates third-quarter orders of $245 million to $250 million and a quarter-end backlog of $335 million to $345 million, representing a 3% decline from the prior quarter but a 5% increase versus the end of fiscal 2025, signaling a still-solid demand pipeline. These figures, which exclude the impact of the pending acquisition of Kito Crosby Limited and the planned divestiture of U.S. power chain hoist and chain manufacturing operations, remain subject to closing adjustments and audit review; the company has also revised its Adjusted EBITDA definition to add back stock-based compensation, aligning with common industry practice and potentially improving comparability of its performance metrics for investors.

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, CMCO is a Outperform.
Columbus McKinnon exhibits a stable financial position with strong technical momentum and positive earnings call sentiment. However, the high P/E ratio suggests potential overvaluation, and profitability challenges remain. The company’s strategic initiatives and operational improvements provide a positive outlook, but tariff impacts and regional order slowdowns pose risks.
