Brady sees FY26 adjusted EPS $4.85-$5.15, two est. $4.92

The assumptions included in fiscal 2026 guidance include a full-year income tax rate of approximately 21 percent, depreciation and amortization expense of approximately $42 million, and capital expenditures of approximately $40 million. Fiscal 2026 guidance is based upon foreign currency exchange rates as of July 31, 2025 and assumes economic growth. “Our balance sheet is strong and we closed the fiscal year in a net cash position, which provides us with the flexibility to fund our anticipated organic and inorganic opportunities, and to return funds to our shareholders through dividends and share buybacks,” said Brady’s (BRC) Chief Financial Officer, Ann Thornton. “In fiscal 2025, we returned $96.4 million to shareholders through dividends and share buybacks while also investing a record-high in research and development. Through these investments, we believe we are well-positioned to continue to deliver improved long-term value to our shareholders.”
