Forward guidance

The company anticipates that fiscal 2020 fourth-quarter adjusted EPS would be similar to that of its fiscal 2019 fourth quarter, on higher net sales.

Tailwinds

  • Continued year-over-year growth in the residential market is expected, but at a more moderate level.
  • Professional markets should benefit from the gradual return to more normal buying patterns as customers' confidence in the economy increases.
  • Innovation
  • Strong customer relationships
  • Sustained value creation through disciplined capital allocation.

Headwinds

  • These positive trends will likely be somewhat offset by remaining COVID-19 headwinds, such as budget constraints.
  • Effects of social distancing restrictions
  • Regional variations in economic recovery
  • Uncertain nature of the economic environment
  • Precision is difficult in this environment
