Forward guidance

The company anticipates comparable revenue and an increase in operating profit compared to the strong FY 2023. Net income is expected to be comparable to FY 2023 due to higher income tax expense.

Tailwinds

  • Improved sales activity vs. FY ’23 forecasted
  • Expected y/y operating profit increase as higher product margins & manufacturing efficiencies offset higher material and operating costs
  • H1 profit growth driven by strong margins from fixed-price backlog
  • Revenues & production and shipment rates expected to increase vs. PY
  • Significant H1 ’24 operating profit increase y/y from higher volumes, favorable price-to-cost ratio.

Headwinds

  • Higher sales offset by increased development costs leading to comparable y/y operating results
  • Modest revenue improvement anticipated vs. FY ’23 as attachment volumes increase and legacy products phased out
  • Net income comparable to FY ’23 due to higher income tax expense
  • Tempered H2 results from expiration of tariff exemptions & shipments of competitively priced 2024 orders.
  • H2 ’24 expected to moderate vs. H1 from tariff exemptions expiration, shipment of trucks ordered in 2024’s more competitive pricing environment & product mix shift
