MILWAUKEE, June 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Enerpac Tool Group Corp. (NYSE: EPAC) (the “Company” or “Enerpac”) today announced results for its fiscal third quarter ended May 31, 2025.

“Enerpac’s results in the third quarter continued to reflect our ability to outperform the soft industrial sector with organic revenue growth of 2% and total revenue growth of 6%,” said Paul Sternlieb, Enerpac Tool Group’s President & CEO. “While we are cognizant of continuing economic uncertainty and geopolitical risk, we believe Enerpac is well suited to navigate the current environment given our brand strength, breadth and depth of product offering, extensive channel partner network, strong balance sheet, continuous improvement process (PEP), implementation of Enerpac Commercial Excellence (ECX), and customer-focused innovation.”

Third Quarter Fiscal 2025 Consolidated Results Comparisons

“Given the continued economic uncertainty and challenging industrial backdrop, we took restructuring actions during the quarter to further align our cost base,” said Darren Kozik, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. “We also implemented price increases and surcharges in an effort to mitigate the impact of direct material cost increases.”

Consolidated net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 were $158.7 million compared to $150.4 million in the prior-year period, an increase of 5.5%. On an organic basis, sales increased 2.0% year-over-year, driven by IT&S organic growth of 1.5% and 18.7% growth at Cortland Biomedical.

Net sales for the Industrial Tools & Services segment (IT&S) increased 5.1%, driven by organic growth and the acquisition of DTA. On an organic basis, IT&S product and service revenue increased 1.0% and 3.4%, respectively.

Gross profit margin declined 140 basis points year-over-year to 50.4% due to continued pressure on service margins from the project mix and the inclusion of DTA. However, service business margins improved sequentially following actions taken earlier this year.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) of $47.0 million increased $3.3 million year-over-year. The increase in SG&A expense was driven primarily by restructuring charges totaling $5.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2025. Adjusted SG&A expense, excluding restructuring and M&A charges, was $40.4 million, down from $40.6 million in the year-ago period.

Third quarter fiscal 2025 net earnings and diluted EPS were $22.0 million and $0.41 respectively, compared to $22.6 million and $0.41, respectively, in the year-ago period.

Third quarter adjusted EBITDA was $41.0 million compared to $39.7 million in the year-ago period. Adjusted EBITDA margin declined 50 basis points year-over-year to 25.9% due to the gross margin changes discussed above, partially offset by the improvement in adjusted SG&A and higher contribution from Cortland Biomedical.Through the first nine months of fiscal 2025 the Company has generated $56.0 million in cash from operating activities as compared to $37.0 million in the year-ago period, an increase of approximately $19 million. Capital expenditures through the first nine months of fiscal 2025 were $16.4 million as compared to $5.0 million in the year-ago period.

Net debt on May 31, 2025, was $50.4 million, resulting in a net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio of 0.4x. The company repurchased approximately 330,000 shares of its common stock in the third quarter of fiscal 2025 for a total of $14.0 million under its share repurchase program announced in March 2022.

Outlook

“Based on year-to-date results, the Company is maintaining its full-year guidance, with the expectation of delivering towards the lower half of the range in light of current macroeconomic conditions," added Kozik. The Company’s fiscal 2025 guidance includes net sales of $610 million to $625 million in fiscal 2025, representing growth of 3% to 6%. The forecast anticipates organic sales growth of approximately 0% to 2%, with expected adjusted EBITDA in the range of $150 million to $160 million, and free cash flow between $85 million to $95 million.

Relocation to Downtown Milwaukee

“During the third quarter, we completed the relocation to Enerpac’s new headquarters in downtown Milwaukee,” concluded Sternlieb. “We are already enjoying the benefits of our new space, including creating a more vibrant, collaborative environment. Our R&D organization is also seeing the impact of the investment in our new and expanded Innovation Lab, which is enabling faster prototyping and a more rapid product development process.”
