"The first quarter largely played out as expected as we delivered sustained order growth in an environment where global tariff policies pressured near-term results," said David J. Wilson, President and Chief Executive Officer. "While the geographic distribution of tariffs has evolved, we continue to anticipate approximately $10 million of net tariff impact in the first half of fiscal 2026, consistent with our prior guidance."
"The demand environment remains healthy and our optimism for the business remains unchanged. This was underscored by a book-to-bill ratio of 1.1x in the first quarter and a 23% increase in our backlog year-over-year," continued Wilson. "We have a history of successfully navigating uncertain environments and we remain focused on controlling what we can control, while emphasizing strong operational execution, cost management and advancing our strategic plan."
Wilson concluded "We continue to progress towards the closing of the Kito Crosby acquisition and believe with the benefits of scale, improved solutions, the realization of synergies and strong free cash flow, we will be positioned to grow profitably and deliver long-term value for our shareholders."
First Quarter Fiscal 2026 Sales

Net sales | $ 235.9 | $ 239.7 | $ (3.8) | (1.6) % | |||

Capital Allocation Priorities
The Company plans to continue to allocate capital to pay down debt to deleverage its balance sheet in the near term while continuing its track record of a consistent dividend payment. Over time, the Company believes it will be positioned to utilize its expected significant free cash flow generation to advance its Intelligent Motion strategy across the fragmented marketplace.
Fiscal Year 2026 Guidance
The Company is reaffirming guidance for fiscal 2026. Please note that the Company's outlook does not contemplate the impact of the pending Kito Crosby acquisition. Additionally, the guidance only reflects what is known as of the date of this release about the tariff policy environment, which has remained volatile to date and may impact supply chain costs and product availability. This forecast assumes tariffs will be a headwind to Adjusted EPS in the first half of fiscal 2026 due to the timing of supply chain adjustments, pricing increases and surcharge implementation lagging tariff costs and tariff cost neutrality expected by the second half of fiscal 2026.
Metric | FY26 |
Net sales | Flat to slightly up |
Adjusted EPS4 | Flat to slightly up |
Fiscal 2026 guidance assumes approximately $35 million of interest expense, $30 million of amortization, an effective tax rate of 25% and 29.0 million diluted average shares outstanding.
Teleconference and Webcast
Columbus McKinnon will host a conference call today at 10:00 AM Eastern Time to discuss the Company's financial results and strategy. The conference call, earnings release and earnings presentation will be accessible through live webcast on the Company's investor relations website at investors.cmco.com. A replay of the webcast will also be archived on the Company's investor relations website through August 6, 2025.
______________________ | |
1 | Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Operating Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Adjusted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures. See accompanying discussion and reconciliation tables provided in this release for reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the closest corresponding GAAP financial measures. |
2 | Adjusted EPS excludes, among other adjustments, amortization of intangible assets. The Company believes this better represents its inherent earnings power and cash generation capability. |
3 | Tariff impact is being presented in a tax effected manner using a 25% normalized tax rate. |
4 | The Company has not reconciled the Adjusted EPS guidance to the most comparable GAAP financial measure outlook because it is not possible to do so without unreasonable efforts due to the uncertainty and potential variability of reconciling items, which are dependent on future events and often outside of management's control and which could be significant. Because such items cannot be reasonably predicted with the level of precision required, we are unable to provide guidance for the comparable GAAP financial measure. Forward-looking guidance regarding Adjusted EPS is made in a manner consistent with the relevant definitions and assumptions noted herein. |

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, and other adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are not a measures determined in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable with Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin as used by other companies. Nevertheless, Columbus McKinnon believes that providing non-GAAP financial measures, such as Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, are important for investors and other readers of the Company's financial statements.
