MSC Industrial reports Q4 adjusted EPS $1.09, consensus $1.03

Reports Q4 revenue $978.2M, consensus $964.26M. Erik Gershwind, CEO, said, “Our fourth quarter results are evidence of the progress we are making through our Mission Critical strategy. We entered the year with three focus areas- maintain momentum in our high touch solutions, reenergize our core customer and optimize our cost to serve. As a result of execution in each of these priorities, we returned to daily sales growth in the fiscal fourth quarter for both the Core Customer and the total company. In fact, the Core Customer growth rate outpaced company average. We also returned to growth in earnings per share, with adjusted EPS in the quarter improving over 5% year over year. I am grateful for the hard work and dedication of our team members this year in supporting our goals.”
