Tennant Company, a leader in designing and manufacturing cleaning solutions, reported its financial outcomes for the fourth quarter and full year of 2024, demonstrating a mix of achievements and challenges across its global operations.
The company posted record full-year net sales and adjusted EBITDA for 2024, alongside a notable expansion in adjusted EBITDA margin. Tennant also introduced guidance for 2025, highlighting expectations for stable demand outside the APAC region, despite anticipating a slight decline in organic sales.
Key financial highlights include a 5.6% increase in fourth-quarter net sales to $328.9 million, driven by organic growth in the Americas and EMEA. Full-year net sales grew by 3.5% to $1,286.7 million, supported by price increases and favorable product mix. Despite these gains, net income for the year fell by 23.6% due to increased nonoperating costs and higher S&A expenses, including investments in ERP modernization and legal contingencies.
Tennant’s strategic initiatives included the launch of the X6 ROVR, an AMR scrubber designed for large spaces, and an expansion of its share repurchase program. The company maintained strong liquidity with robust cash flow and a low net leverage ratio, ensuring continued shareholder returns and strategic investments.
Looking ahead, Tennant’s management anticipates continued margin expansion through cost management and operational efficiencies, despite challenges in organic sales growth. The company’s strategic focus on innovation and global market penetration is expected to sustain its competitive edge in the cleaning solutions industry.
