PITTSBURGH , Aug. 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Kennametal Inc. (NYSE: KMT) (the "Company") today announced fourth quarter and fiscal 2025 results. For the fourth quarter, the Company reported earnings per diluted share (EPS) of $0.28, compared to $0.47 in the prior year quarter. The current quarter adjusted EPS was $0.34, compared to $0.49 in the prior year quarter. For fiscal 2025, the Company reported EPS of $1.20, compared to $1.37 in the prior year. Adjusted EPS was $1.34 in the current year, compared to $1.50 in the prior year.

"Kennametal responded to significant headwinds this past year, including persistent market softness, tariff impacts, and foreign exchange weakness," said Sanjay Chowbey, President and CEO. "We took decisive actions to progress our efforts on productivity, cost restructuring, and footprint consolidation, and we plan to ramp up our work on right sizing capacity and cost improvement. We also executed our portfolio optimization strategy with the sale of our Goshen facility."

He continued: "While we expect market headwinds to continue throughout fiscal 2026, our team is relentlessly focused on executing our strategic growth initiatives. Recent wins in the Aerospace & Defense and Energy end markets showcase the ability of our team to take share in all market conditions. With strategic and thoughtful actions on right sizing capacity, cost structure and portfolio optimization, and growth initiatives, I am confident that we will build a more resilient business and unlock value for our shareholders."

Fiscal 2025 Fourth Quarter Key Developments

Sales of $516 million decreased 5 percent from $543 million in the prior year quarter, reflecting an organic sales decline of 5 percent.

During the quarter, the Company achieved incremental year-over-year restructuring savings of approximately $6 million. In January 2025, we announced actions to support the long-term competitiveness of the Company and to mitigate softer market conditions. These actions were enlarged during the quarter and delivered annualized run rate pre-tax savings of approximately $28 million. We now expect total annualized run rate savings of approximately $35 million in connection with these actions, exceeding the original target of $15 million. The Company expects to incur pre-tax charges of approximately $25 million in connection with the execution of these actions, of which $5 million was recognized during the quarter. The Company substantially completed the closure of a facility in Greenfield, MA and the consolidation of facilities in Barcelona, Spain during the quarter as a part of these actions.

During the quarter, the Company completed the sale of its Goshen, IN subsidiary. The Company received $19 million in proceeds, subject to working capital adjustments, and recognized a loss on divestiture of approximately $2 million.

Operating income was $31 million, or 6.1 percent margin, compared with $61 million, or 11.3 percent margin, in the prior year quarter. The decrease in operating income was primarily due to lower sales and production volumes, higher raw material costs, higher wages and general inflation, the net effect of increased tariffs of approximately $4 million, higher restructuring and related charges of approximately $4 million compared to the prior year quarter and a loss from divestiture of approximately $2 million related to the sale of a subsidiary in Goshen, IN. These factors were partially offset by pricing, a net benefit of $7 million within the Infrastructure segment related to the tornado that struck the Rogers, Arkansas facility late in fiscal 2024 and incremental year-over-year restructuring savings of approximately $6 million. Adjusted operating income was $38 million, or 7.4 percent margin, compared with $63 million, or 11.5 percent margin, in the prior year quarter.

Included in other income, net during the quarter is approximately $5 million from an above-market, preferential exchange rate offered in Bolivia in exchange for U.S. dollars.

The reported effective tax rate (ETR) was 23.9 percent and the adjusted ETR was 25.7 percent, compared to a reported ETR of 30.7 percent and an adjusted ETR of 29.3 percent in the prior year quarter. The decrease in the ETR year-over-year was primarily driven by geographical mix.

Reported EPS in the current quarter includes restructuring and related charges of $0.05 per share and loss on divestiture of $0.01 per share. Reported EPS in the prior year quarter includes restructuring and related charges of $0.01 per share and differences in projected annual tax rates of $0.01 per share.

During the quarter, the Company repurchased 232 thousand shares of Kennametal common stock for $5 million under its share repurchase program. Inception-to-date the Company has repurchased 2.5 million shares of common stock for $60 million under the $200 million three-year program.

The Company paid $15 million in cash dividends to Kennametal shareholders during the quarter. The Company has a long history of consistently paying dividends to shareholders since its listing on the New York Stock Exchange in 1967.

Fiscal 2025 Key Developments

Sales of $1,967 million decreased 4 percent from $2,047 million in the prior year, reflecting an organic sales decline of 4 percent and an unfavorable currency exchange effect of 1 percent, partially offset by a favorable business days effect of 1 percent.

Operating income was $143 million, or 7.3 percent margin, compared with $170 million, or 8.3 percent margin, in the prior year. The decrease in operating income was primarily due to lower sales and production volumes, higher wages and general inflation, unfavorable foreign currency exchange of approximately $6 million and the net effect of increased tariffs of approximately $4 million. These factors were partially offset by restructuring benefits of approximately $23 million, pricing, lower raw material costs, an incremental year-over-year benefit of approximately $13 million from an advanced manufacturing production credit under the Inflation Reduction Act within the Infrastructure segment, and a net benefit of $12 million within the Infrastructure segment related to the tornado that struck the Rogers, Arkansas facility late in fiscal 2024. Adjusted operating income was $158 million, or 8.0 percent margin, compared with $183 million, or 8.9 percent margin, in the prior year.

Included in other income, net during the current year is approximately $12 million from an above-market, preferential exchange rate offered in Bolivia in exchange for U.S. dollars.

The reported effective tax rate was 25.2 percent compared to 21.3 percent in the prior year. The year-over-year change in the effective tax rate is primarily due to prior year adjustments that include a $7.8 million benefit related to a tax rate change enacted in Switzerland, a $6.2 million benefit associated with a change in unrecognized tax benefits and a $2.9 million charge to settle tax litigation in Italy, which were partially offset by adjustments in the current year that include benefits from the advanced manufacturing production credit under the Inflation Reduction Act and $1.4 million due to interest received to resolve an income tax dispute in India, and geographical mix.

Reported EPS in the current year includes restructuring and related charges of $0.13 per share and loss on divestiture of $0.01 per share. Reported EPS in the prior year includes restructuring and related charges of $0.13 per share.

Net cash flow provided by operating activities in fiscal 2025 was $208 million compared to $277 million in the prior year. The change in net cash flow from operating activities was driven primarily by working capital changes and lower net income compared to the prior year. Free operating cash flow (FOCF) was $121 million compared to $175 million in the prior year. The decrease in FOCF was driven primarily by working capital changes and lower net income compared to the prior year, partially offset by lower capital expenditures.

In fiscal 2025, Kennametal continued its focus on delivering shareholder value by returning $122 million to the shareholders through $62 million in dividends and $60 million in share repurchases, while investing $89 million in capital expenditures.

As of June 30, 2025, the Company has achieved approximately $65 million in annualized run-rate pre-tax savings; making significant progress towards the Investor Day target of $100 million of cost savings by the end of fiscal 2027. Included in the achieved savings are structural cost improvements, the closure of the Greenfield, MA facility and the consolidation of facilities in Barcelona, Spain. This initiative has now been enlarged to target a total of $125 million in cost savings by the end of fiscal 2027.

Outlook

The Company's expectations for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 and the full year are as follows:

Quarterly Outlook:

  • Sales expected to be $465 - $485 million; foreign exchange anticipated to be a tailwind of 2 percent compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025
  • Adjusted EPS is expected to be $0.20 - $0.30

Annual Outlook:

  • Sales expected to be $1.95 - $2.05 billion
  • Adjusted EPS is expected to be $0.90 - $1.30
  • Free operating cash flow of approximately 120 percent of adjusted net income
  • Capital spending expected to be approximately $90 million

The Company will provide more details regarding its fiscal 2026 assumptions during its quarterly earnings conference call.

Fiscal 2025 Fourth Quarter Segment Results

Metal Cutting sales of $321 million decreased 4 percent from $335 million in the prior year quarter, reflecting an organic sales decline of 4 percent. Operating income was $21 million, or 6.6 percent margin, compared to $44 million, or 13.2 percent margin, in the prior year quarter. The decrease in operating income was primarily due to lower sales volumes, the net effect of increased tariffs of approximately $4 million, higher restructuring and related charges of approximately $3 million compared to the prior year quarter and higher wages and general inflation. These factors were partially offset by incremental year-over-year restructuring savings of approximately $4 million and pricing. Adjusted operating income was $25 million, or 7.9 percent margin, compared to $45 million, or 13.4 percent margin, in the prior year quarter.

Infrastructure sales of $196 million decreased 6 percent from $209 million in the prior year quarter, reflecting an organic sales decline of 5 percent, an unfavorable business days effect of 1 percent and a divestiture effect of 1 percent, partially offset by a favorable currency exchange effect of 1 percent. Operating income was $11 million, or 5.5 percent margin, compared to $18 million, or 8.5 percent margin, in the prior year quarter. The decrease in operating income was primarily due to lower sales and production volumes, including certain plant shutdowns, higher raw material costs and a loss from divestiture of approximately $2 million related to the sale of a subsidiary in Goshen, IN. These factors were partially offset by a net benefit of $7 million related to the tornado that struck the Rogers, Arkansas facility late in fiscal 2024, pricing and incremental year-over-year restructuring savings of approximately $2 million. Adjusted operating income was $13 million, or 6.8 percent margin, compared to $18 million, or 8.7 percent margin, in the prior year quarter.

Dividend Declared

Kennametal also announced that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.20 per share. The dividend is payable on August 26, 2025 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on August 12, 2025.

The Company will discuss its fiscal 2025 fourth quarter and full year results in a live webcast at 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time, Wednesday, August 6, 2025.

NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS (UNAUDITED)

In addition to reported results under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP), the following financial highlight tables include, where appropriate, a reconciliation of adjusted results including: operating income and margin; ETR; net income attributable to Kennametal; diluted EPS; Metal Cutting operating income and margin; Infrastructure operating income and margin; FOCF; and consolidated and segment organic sales growth (all of which are non-GAAP financial measures), to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Adjustments for the three months ended June 30, 2025 include restructuring and related charges, loss on divestiture and differences in projected annual tax rates. Adjustments for the three months ended June 30, 2024 include restructuring and related charges and differences in projected annual tax rates. Adjustments for the twelve months ended June 30, 2025 include restructuring and related charges and loss on divestiture. Adjustments for the twelve months ended June 30, 2024 include restructuring and related charges. For those adjustments that are presented 'net of tax', the tax effect of the adjustment can be derived by calculating the difference between the pre-tax and the post-tax adjustments presented. The tax effect on adjustments is calculated by preparing an overall tax calculation including the adjustments and then a tax calculation excluding the adjustments. The difference between these calculations results in the tax impact of the adjustments.

Management believes that presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information about the results of operations of the Company for the current and past periods. Management believes that investors should have available the same information that management uses to assess operating performance, determine compensation and assess the capital structure of the Company. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most comparable GAAP financial measures. Investors are cautioned that non-GAAP financial measures used by management may not be comparable to non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Reconciliations and descriptions of all non-GAAP financial measures are set forth in the disclosures below.

Reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures for the following forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures for the first quarter and full fiscal year of 2026 have not been provided, including but not limited to: FOCF, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, adjusted EPS, adjusted ETR and primary working capital. The most comparable GAAP financial measures are net cash flow from operating activities, operating income, net income attributable to Kennametal, ETR and working capital (defined as current assets less current liabilities), respectively. Primary working capital is defined as accounts receivable, net plus inventories, net minus accounts payable. Because the non-GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis are subject to uncertainty and variability as they are dependent on many factors - including, but not limited to, the effect of foreign currency exchange fluctuations, impacts from potential acquisitions or divestitures, gains or losses on the potential sale of businesses or other assets, restructuring costs, asset impairment charges, gains or losses from early extinguishment of debt, the tax impact of the items above and the impact of tax law changes or other tax matters - reconciliations to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures are not available without unreasonable effort.

Free Operating Cash Flow (FOCF)

FOCF is a non-GAAP financial measure and is defined by the Company as cash provided by operations (which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure) less capital expenditures plus proceeds from disposals of fixed assets. Management considers FOCF to be an important indicator of the Company's cash generating capability because it better represents cash generated from operations that can be used for dividends, debt repayment, strategic initiatives (such as acquisitions) and other investing and financing activities.

Organic Sales Growth (Decline)

Organic sales growth (decline) is a non-GAAP financial measure of sales growth (decline) (which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure) excluding the impacts of acquisitions, divestitures, business days and foreign currency exchange from year-over-year comparisons. Management believes this measure provides investors with a supplemental understanding of underlying sales trends by providing sales growth on a consistent basis. Management reports organic sales growth (decline) at the consolidated and segment levels.

(3) Foreign currency exchange effect is calculated by dividing the difference between current period sales and current period sales at prior period foreign exchange rates by prior period sales.

(4) Business days effect is calculated by dividing the year-over-year change in weighted average working days (based on mix of sales by country) by prior period weighted average working days.

(5) Divestiture effect is calculated by dividing prior period sales attributable to divested businesses by prior period sales.
