CHARLOTTE, N.C., May 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Columbus McKinnon Corporation (Nasdaq: CMCO) ("Columbus McKinnon" or the "Company"), a leading designer, manufacturer and marketer of intelligent motion solutions for material handling, today announced financial results for its full year and fourth quarter fiscal 2025, which ended March 31, 2025.
Fiscal Year 2025 Highlights (compared with prior year period)
Fourth Quarter 2025 Highlights (compared with prior year period)
"We enter fiscal 2026 with a strong backlog and continued order growth as our commercial initiatives gain traction. Our conviction in Columbus McKinnon's strategy and business model remains strong as we continue to anticipate tailwinds from industry megatrends like on-shoring, scarcity of labor and global infrastructure investments over time," said David Wilson, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We have a strong track record of navigating through uncertain environments and managing performance through volatility. Accordingly, we are actively working to mitigate the impact of tariff policies with supply chain adjustments, surcharges and price. I want to thank our Columbus McKinnon team for their relentless efforts to continuously improve customer service and advance our strategic initiatives as we execute on fiscal 2026 and work toward the closing of the Kito Crosby acquisition."
Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2025 Sales

Net sales | $ 246.9 | $ 265.5 | $ (18.6) | (7.0) % | |||

% of total | 44 % | 42 % |
For the quarter, net sales decreased $18.6 million, or 7.0%. In the U.S., sales were down $15.6 million, or 10.1%, driven by unfavorable sales volume of $16.2 million slightly offset by price improvement of $0.6 million. Sales outside the U.S. decreased $3.0 million, or 2.7%, driven by $1.1 million of lower sales volume offset by $2.3 million of price improvement. Unfavorable foreign currency translation was $4.2 million.
Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2025 Operating Results

Adjusted EPS1 excludes, among other adjustments, amortization of intangible assets. The Company believes this better represents its inherent earnings power and cash generation capability.
Kito Crosby Transaction
As it announced on February 10, 2025, Columbus McKinnon believes that the acquisition of Kito Crosby Limited ("Kito Crosby") will scale its business and accelerate the realization of the Company's Intelligent Motion strategy. Through this complementary combination, Columbus McKinnon believes it will be better positioned to deliver a superior customer value proposition through an expanded product offering across a broader set of geographies, generating enhanced financial results and long-term value for shareholders.
The acquisition is conditioned on the receipt of regulatory clearance and satisfactory completion of customary closing conditions. The Company continues to make progress towards completing the proposed acquisition and work collaboratively with the Department of Justice on regulatory clearance matters with regards to the transaction through the date of this release. The Company continues to anticipate the closing of the transaction later this calendar year.
Capital Allocation Priorities
The Company plans to continue to allocate capital to pay down debt to deleverage its balance sheet in the near term while continuing its track record of consistent dividend payment. Over time, the Company believes it will be positioned to utilize its expected significant free cash flow generation to advance its Intelligent Motion strategy across the fragmented marketplace.
Fiscal Year 2026 Guidance
The Company's outlook for fiscal 2026 does not contemplate the impact of the pending Kito Crosby acquisition. Additionally, the guidance only reflects what is known as of the date of this release about the tariff policy environment, which has remained volatile to date and may impact supply chain costs and product availability. This forecast assumes tariffs will be a headwind to Adjusted EPS in the first half of fiscal 2026 due to the timing of supply chain adjustments, pricing increases and surcharge implementation lagging tariff costs and tariff cost neutrality expected by the second half of fiscal 2026.
The Company is issuing the following guidance for fiscal 2026, ending March 31, 2026:
Metric | FY26 | |
Net sales | Flat to slightly up | |
Adjusted EPS3 | Flat to slightly up |
Fiscal 2026 guidance assumes approximately $35 million of interest expense, $30 million of amortization, an effective tax rate of 25% and 29.0 million diluted average shares outstanding.
Teleconference and Webcast
Columbus McKinnon will host a conference call today at 10:00 AM Eastern Time to discuss the Company's financial results and strategy. The conference call, earnings release and earnings presentation will be accessible through live webcast on the Company's investor relations website at investors.cmco.com. A replay of the webcast will also be archived on the Company's investor relations website through June 4, 2025.
__________________________ | |
1 | Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Operating Margin, Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are non-GAAP financial measures. See accompanying discussion and reconciliation tables provided in this release for reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the closest corresponding GAAP financial measures. |
2 | Each expense listed is being presented in a tax effected manner using a 6.7% tax rate for fiscal 2025 and 23.2% tax rate for Q4 fiscal 2025 |
3 | The Company has not reconciled the Adjusted EPS guidance for fiscal 2026 to the most comparable GAAP outlook because it is not possible to do so without unreasonable efforts due to the uncertainty and potential variability of reconciling items, which are dependent on future events and often outside of management's control and which could be significant. Because such items cannot be reasonably predicted with the level of precision required, we are unable to provide guidance for the comparable GAAP financial measure. Forward-looking guidance regarding Adjusted EPS is made in a manner consistent with the relevant definitions and assumptions noted herein. |

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS are defined as net income (loss) and GAAP EPS as reported, adjusted for certain items, including amortization of intangibles, and also adjusted for a normalized tax rate.

The Company believes that presenting Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted Shares Outstanding and Adjusted EPS provides a better understanding of its earnings power inclusive of adjusting for the non-cash amortization of intangible assets, reflecting the Company's strategy to grow through acquisitions as well as organically.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, and other adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are not measures determined in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable with Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin as used by other companies. Nevertheless, Columbus McKinnon believes that providing non-GAAP financial measures, such as Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, are important for investors and other readers of the Company's financial statements.
