$4.58. The Company tightened its Adjusted Diluted EPS guidance for the year ending July 31, 2025 from
$4.45 to
$4.70 per share to
$4.48 to
$4.63 per share. The Company's GAAP earnings per diluted Class A Nonvoting Share guidance for the year ending July 31, 2025 was updated for facility closure and other reorganization costs incurred to date to
$3.95 to
$4.10 per share, from
$3.99 to
$4.24 per share. The assumptions included in fiscal 2025 guidance include a full-year income tax rate of approximately 20 percent, depreciation and amortization expense of approximately
$40M, and capital expenditures of approximately
$25M.
Fiscal 2025 guidance is based upon foreign currency exchange rates as of April 30, 2025 and assumes economic growth. "In addition to our record adjusted EPS this quarter, we also used our strong balance sheet and cash generation to return funds to our shareholders through share buybacks and increased dividends.
This quarter, we repurchased 476,000 shares for
$33.2M, and we returned another
$11.3M to our shareholders in the form of dividends," said CFO Ann Thornton. "Our balance sheet provides us with the ability to continue to invest in both organic growth and strategic acquisitions to increase shareholder value, along with stability during this period of uncertainty surrounding the global trade environment."
