Forward guidance

The company continues to expect low single-digit total company net sales growth for fiscal 2024, and adjusted diluted EPS in the range of $4.25 to $4.35.

Tailwinds

  • Continued strong demand and stable supply for businesses with elevated order backlog.
  • Expect continued strength in demand for our underground construction business, supported by a long runway of robust private and public multi-year spending to address global infrastructure needs.
  • Expect continued strength in our golf business, with healthy budgets supported by the sustained momentum in rounds played, an increase in new golfers, and new course development.
  • Expect continued growth in shipments to our residential segment mass channel.
  • Favorable spring weather patterns to date.

Headwinds

  • Continuation of macro factors that have driven increased consumer and channel caution.
  • Weather patterns aligned with historical averages for the remainder of the year.
  • Elevated field inventory levels of lawn care and snow and ice management products.
  • Manufacturing inefficiencies as production and inventory levels continue to be adjusted to market conditions.
  • The net impact across all residential mass channel partners related to our new strategic partnership with Lowe's.
