Forward Guidance

For fiscal 2023, management is narrowing guidance, and now expects net sales growth in the range of 7% to 8% and adjusted diluted EPS in the range of $4.70 to $4.80. This updated guidance is based on current visibility in this evolving and dynamic macro environment, and reflects expectations for continued strong demand across key professional segment markets, reduced volume for solutions geared to homeowners, and continued operational execution.

Positive Outlook

  • Continuing strong demand for professional segment products in construction, and golf and grounds markets.
  • Substantial order backlog for professional segment products.
  • Indications of a steadily improving supply chain.
  • Continuation of improved production rates for key categories.
  • Expect benefits from residential segment’s refreshed product lineup, expanded channel, and strong brand to continue to drive competitive advantage for the long term.

Challenges Ahead

  • Sales volume in the residential segment expected to be challenged by macroeconomic uncertainty and consumer spending patterns.
  • Residential segment sales volume also expected to reflect the impact of the unfavorable weather year to date.
  • The company manages through economic cycles and weather patterns with agility and resiliency.
  • Company leverages innovation and synergies across its broad portfolio.
  • Company has a talented team and best-in-class distribution and service networks.
