Today, 4:18 PMWatsco posts a Q4/FY2025 miss (non-GAAP EPS $1.68; revenue $1.6B) but expands margins, generates a record $400M Q4 cash flow, exits FY25 debt-free, hits a $500M inventory-reduction goal, completes 12 acquisitions (> $1.6B in sales), raises its annual dividend 10% to $13.20 starting April 2026, and sets long-term targets (30% gross margin, five inventory turns, $16–$18 cash flow/share). On the call, management said Jan–Feb 2026 sales are down mid-single digits year over year due partly to severe weather, while e-commerce continues to grow.
