Positive Outlook

  • Climate Solutions segment will continue to leverage revenue growth in our targeted markets.
  • Benefit from our most recent acquisition of Scott Springfield Manufacturing.
  • Adding additional data center manufacturing capacity in the US, Canada and in the UK.
  • Performance Technologies segment will remain focused on driving favorable changes in the mix of revenue, resulting in higher margins and earnings.
  • Expect further margin improvements in both segments as we leverage 80/20 to focus our investments, improve our sales mix, and increase our operational efficiency.

Challenges Ahead

  • Lower sales resulting from the impact of Performance Technologies divestitures.
  • Other planned reductions.
  • Estimates of expenses and gains for fiscal 2025 are not available due to the low visibility and unpredictability of these items.
  • Potential adverse developments or disruptions in the global economy and financial markets, including impacts related to inflation, energy costs, supply chain challenges or supplier constraints, tariffs, sanctions and other trade issues or cross-border trade restrictions.
  • Impact of a material weakness identified in our internal controls related to IT system access in Europe on our financial reporting process.
