Analysis · EPAC · Technology
The quarter itself was already public — Dow Jones carried the $0.47 GAAP / $0.53 adjusted EPS earlier today — so the real news is the first fiscal 2027 outlook, which folds in roughly ten months of the just-closed SFE Group acquisition. Analysts will now mark their models to guidance of $825-845M in sales and $2.00-$2.15 in adjusted EPS, and it lands alongside a clean balance sheet (net debt just 0.1x adjusted EBITDA) that leaves room for more deals or buybacks. The offset is margin: Q4 adjusted EBITDA margin dropped to 22.6% from 26.5% on mix, higher incentive comp and growth spending, and gross margin slipped to 47.0% from 50.1%.
