Prior view was $9.20-$9.25, consensus $9.68. “The company is modestly increasing fiscal 2025 EPS guidance to a range of $9.25 to $10.00 (prior $9.20 to $9.95) to primarily reflect updated assumptions for Interest and Other Income following fiscal 2025 first quarter results. The company is maintaining guidance for sales of down 2.5% to up 2.5% including down 4.0% to up 1.0% on an organic daily basis, as well as EBITDA margins of 12.1% to 12.3%. Guidance incorporates ongoing economic uncertainty and potential margin pressures reflecting expense deleveraging on muted sales trends, ongoing inflationary headwinds, and growth investments. Guidance does not assume contribution from future acquisitions or share buybacks.”
