Earnings Call Sentiment|Neutral
The earnings call highlighted strong execution on restructuring and growth in Aerospace and Defense, supported by tax credits and shareholder returns. However, these positives were tempered by significant sales declines, market weakness in EMEA, and tariff-related challenges, balancing the positive and negative aspects.Company Guidance
During the third quarter fiscal 2025 earnings call, Kennametal provided guidance emphasizing key metrics and future outlooks. The company reported a sales decrease of 6% year-over-year, with metal cutting sales declining 4% organically and infrastructure declining 2% organically. Despite these challenges, adjusted earnings per share (EPS) increased to $0.47 compared to $0.30 in the prior year, buoyed by an advanced manufacturing tax credit and $6 million in restructuring savings. The fiscal 2025 outlook was adjusted with a tighter sales range of $1.97 to $1.99 billion and an increased EPS range of $1.30 to $1.45, reflecting favorable third-quarter performance. Kennametal also outlined its strategy to mitigate an $80 million tariff impact through global footprint optimization, alternative supply options, and tariff surcharges. The company remains confident in long-term industrial production trends, despite short-term market pressures, and is committed to executing value creation initiatives to drive above-market growth and margin improvements.Advanced Manufacturing Tax Credit Boost
Adjusted EPS was above expectations, primarily due to a $10 million benefit from an advanced manufacturing production credit under the Inflation Reduction Act.
Restructuring Savings Achieved

Aerospace and Defense Growth

Improved Profitability
Adjusted EPS increased to $0.47 compared to $0.30 in the prior year quarter, benefiting from restructuring, absence of price raw headwinds, and tax credits.
