Earnings Call Summary

|% Change Since: 10.50%
|Next Earnings Date:Jul 23, 2025
Earnings Call Sentiment|Neutral
The earnings call presented a mixed view with notable achievements in sales growth and cash flow, but faced challenges in the contractor segment and gross margin due to acquisitions and external factors like tariffs in China. The company is actively working on mitigation strategies and has shown strong financial management through share repurchase activities.Company Guidance
In the first quarter of fiscal year 2025, Graco Inc. reported sales of $528 million, marking a 7% increase from the previous year. Excluding acquisitions, which contributed 6% growth, organic sales grew by 3%, although currency translation reduced sales by 2%. Net earnings increased by 2% to $124 million or $0.72 per diluted share, with adjusted non-GAAP net earnings at $120 million or $0.70 per diluted share, an increase of 8%. The gross margin rate decreased by 150 basis points due to higher product costs and lower factory volume, with acquisitions accounting for nearly 100 basis points of this decline. Operating earnings rose by $11 million or 8%, maintaining an operating margin of 27% of sales. Contractor segment operating margin fell by five percentage points to 24%, impacted by the acquisition of Corab and lower factory volume.
