Donaldson Company, Inc. (NYSE:DCI) (Donaldson or the Company), a global leader in technology-led filtration products and solutions, today reported fiscal 2025 GAAP net earnings of $114.3 million in the fourth quarter and $367.0 million for the full year, compared with $109.7 million and $414.0 million, respectively, in fiscal 2024. Fiscal 2025 GAAP EPS were $0.97 in the fourth quarter and $3.05 for the full year, compared with $0.90 and $3.38, respectively, in the prior year. Fourth quarter and full-year 2025 adjusted EPS were $1.03 and $3.68, respectively, compared to $0.94 and $3.42, respectively, in fiscal 2024.

"Our fourth quarter earnings results, inclusive of robust sales and profitability, represent a strong finish to a record fiscal 2025," said Tod Carpenter, chairman, president and chief executive officer. "I would like to thank our outstanding Donaldson team who successfully navigated the complex tariff landscape to support our customers. We also made progress on building greater structural business model efficiency through our footprint and cost optimization initiatives and operating expense management, setting the stage for higher levels of future profitability.

"In fiscal 2026, we expect another year of record sales, achieving $3.8 billion. We also expect to expand gross margin while leveraging benefits from efficiency actions taken during fiscal 2025, resulting in an all-time high operating margin ahead of the fiscal 2026 target laid out one year ago. We are committed to disciplined, focused investments that drive growth across our segments, while building on our long track record of returning cash to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases. I am confident in the value Donaldson can create for all stakeholders, and our results in fiscal 2025 combined with our expectations for fiscal 2026 are clear signals of our strength."

Mobile Solutions segment (Mobile) sales increased 2.3%, driven by strength in Off-Road and Aftermarket, partially offset by lower sales in On-Road. Off-Road sales grew 5.1%, due to sales growth in Europe and Asia Pacific after lapping a weak comparison a year ago. Aftermarket sales grew 3.3%, driven by strength in both the OE and independent channels. On-Road sales declined 20.1% from lower equipment production, an ongoing trend primarily in the United States.

Industrial Solutions segment (Industrial) sales increased 7.7%, from Industrial Filtration Solutions (IFS) sales growth of 10.5% driven by higher demand for new dust collection equipment in Europe and the United States and Power Generation project timing. Aerospace and Defense sales decreased 5.9% due to lower Defense sales after lapping a sales surge a year ago.

Life Sciences segment sales increased 14.1% year over year as a result of strong new equipment and replacement part sales in Food and Beverage and Disk Drive strength.

Gross margin was 34.5%, down 130 basis points from 35.8% in 2024 primarily due to tariff-related inflation and related inventory valuation headwinds. Adjusted gross margin, which excludes restructuring charges, was 34.8% compared with 36.2% in the prior year.

Operating expenses as a percentage of sales were 19.1%, a 110 basis point improvement from 20.2% in the prior year, resulting from leverage on higher sales and disciplined expense management. Adjusted operating expenses as a percentage of sales, which excludes restructuring charges were 18.3% compared with 19.9% in 2024.

Operating income as a percentage of sales (operating margin) of 15.5%, decreased 10 basis points year over year as a result of gross margin compression partially offset by operating expense leverage. Adjusted operating margin was 16.4% a 10 basis point increase from 16.3% in the prior year.

Interest expense was $7.1 million versus $5.3 million in 2024 as a result of higher interest rates. The Company's effective tax rate was 23.6% versus 21.3% a year ago due to lower net discrete tax benefits.

For the full year, Donaldson paid $131.9 million in dividends and repurchased 4.0% of its outstanding shares for $333.6 million.

Fiscal 2026 Outlook

Full-year EPS is forecast to be between $3.92 and $4.08, compared with fiscal 2024 GAAP and adjusted EPS of $3.05 and $3.68, respectively. Sales are projected to increase between 1% and 5%, or to $3.8 billion at the midpoint, inclusive of a pricing benefit of approximately 1%.

Mobile sales are expected to be flat to up 4% year over year. Off-Road sales are projected to increase mid-single digits and On-Road sales are estimated to increase high-single digits as a result of a modest rebound following the declines in fiscal 2025. Aftermarket sales are forecast to grow low-single digits from market share gains and continued strength in vehicle utilization rates.

Industrial sales are expected to grow between 2% and 6% versus 2025. IFS sales are forecast to increase mid-single digits with strength across all businesses, including dust collection and Power Generation. Aerospace and Defense sales are projected to be about flat after cycling against a record 2025.

Life Sciences sales are forecast to grow between 1% and 5% compared with prior year driven by continued sales growth in Food & Beverage and Disk Drive.

Operating margin is expected to be between 16.1% and 16.7% versus 13.4%, or 15.7% on an adjusted basis, in 2025 driven by gross margin expansion and leverage on higher sales.

Interest expense is projected to be between $22 million and $23 million and other income is expected to be between $14 million and $18 million. Donaldson expects a fiscal 2026 effective income tax rate of between 23.5% and 25.5%.

Capital expenditures are forecast to be between $65 million and $85 million and free cash flow conversion is projected to be between 85% and 95%. For the full year, Donaldson expects to repurchase 2% to 3% of its shares outstanding.

Note: The constant currency presentation, which is a non-GAAP measure, excludes the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company believes providing constant currency information provides valuable supplemental information regarding its results of operations. The Company calculates constant currency percentages by converting its current period local currency financial results using the prior period exchange rates and compares these adjusted amounts to its prior period reported results. Amounts may not foot due to rounding.

Note: Although free cash flow, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted gross profit, adjusted operating expense, adjusted operating income, adjusted income taxes, adjusted net earnings and adjusted diluted EPS are not measures of financial performance under GAAP, the Company believes they are useful in understanding its financial results. Free cash flow is a commonly used measure of a company's ability to generate cash in excess of its operating needs. EBITDA is a commonly used measure of operating earnings less non-cash expenses. The adjusted basis presentation excludes the impact of certain matters not related to the Company's ongoing operations. Management believes that the adjusted basis presentation reflects management's performance in operating the Company and provides a meaningful representation of the performance of the Company's core business and is useful to understanding its financial results. A shortcoming of these financial measures is that they do not reflect the Company's actual results under GAAP. Management does not intend these items to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measures. Amounts may not foot due to rounding.
