Reports Q4 revenue $829.4M, consensus $827.43M. CEO Ivo Jurek commented, “In 2024, we generated a 180 basis point increase in our gross margin while encountering softer demand trends in many of our end markets. Our enterprise initiatives continue to gain traction. Furthermore, we also reduced our debt levels and repurchased $175M of our stock. We believe we are well positioned to continue to drive further improvements to our profitability. Our balance sheet is strong and our capital deployment optionality continues to expand. We are making investments in our business that we believe will generate significant dividends for our growth and profitability over the mid-term. I thank the global Gates team for their hard work and support.”
