Commentary:
“We are delighted with the progress of our reorganization to a regional structure, which we announced in December of 2022. We are realizing operational savings while reinforcing our organization through our investments in R&D and sales and marketing initiatives. Even in this challenging manufacturing environment, we continue to grow with our Europe & Australia region performing particularly well,” said Brady’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Russell R. Shaller. “We believe our pipeline of new products will allow us to grow sales and profit as we integrate our businesses and execute our best go-to-market strategies in each geography. Our financial strength enables us to fund organic and inorganic growth initiatives to position ourselves for future success and increased shareholder value.”
“Brady is financially strong and we once again reported both organic sales growth and profit improvement. This quarter, we grew organic sales by 1.6 percent, we grew GAAP earnings per share by 18.4 percent, and cash flow from operating activities increased to $36.1 million from $29.4 million last year,” said Brady’s Chief Financial Officer, Ann Thornton. “Our capital expenditures increased to $60.8 million through January 31, 2024, which was primarily due to the purchase of a previously leased manufacturing facility. We are still in a net cash position of $95.8 million at January 31, 2024, which provides us with the flexibility to fully fund our organic growth investments, return funds to our shareholders in the form of dividends, and continue to be opportunistic with share buybacks and strategic acquisitions. We believe that our disciplined approach to capital allocation will continue to drive increased shareholder value over the long term.”
Fiscal 2024 Guidance:
The Company raised the low end of its GAAP earnings per diluted Class A Nonvoting Common Share guidance for the year ending July 31, 2024 from the previous guidance range of $3.70 to $3.95 per share to the new full year guidance range of $3.80 to $3.95 per share.

In this news release, statements that are not reported financial results or other historic information are “forward-looking statements.” These forward-looking statements relate to, among other things, the Company’s future financial position, business strategy, targets, projected sales, costs, earnings, capital expenditures, debt levels and cash flows, and plans and objectives of management for future operations.
The use of words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “should,” “project,” “plan” or similar terminology are generally intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain and are subject to risks, assumptions, and other factors, some of which are beyond Brady’s control, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. For Brady, uncertainties arise from: increased cost of raw materials and labor as well as material shortages and supply chain disruptions; decreased demand for our products; our ability to compete effectively or to successfully execute our strategy; our ability to develop technologically advanced products that meet customer demands; difficulties in protecting our websites, networks, and systems against security breaches; Brady’s ability to identify, integrate, and grow acquired companies, and to manage contingent liabilities from divested businesses; risks associated with the loss of key employees; extensive regulations by U.S. and non-U.S. governmental and self-regulatory entities; litigation, including product liability claims; adverse impacts of regional epidemics or global pandemics; foreign currency fluctuations; potential write-offs of goodwill and other intangible assets; changes in tax legislation and tax rates; differing interests of voting and non-voting shareholders and changes in the regulatory and business environment around dual-class voting structures; numerous other matters of national, regional and global scale, including major public health crises and government responses thereto and those of a political, economic, business, competitive, and regulatory nature contained from time to time in Brady’s U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filings, including, but not limited to, those factors listed in the “Risk Factors” section within Item 1A of Part I of Brady’s Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2023.
These uncertainties may cause Brady’s actual future results to be materially different than those expressed in its forward-looking statements. Brady does not undertake to update its forward-looking statements except as required by law.

Diluted EPS Excluding Certain Items:
Brady is presenting the non-GAAP measure, “Diluted EPS Excluding Certain Items.” This is not a calculation based upon GAAP. The amounts included in this non-GAAP measure are derived from amounts included in the Consolidated Financial Statements. We do not view these items to be part of our ongoing results. We believe this measure provides an important perspective of underlying business trends and results and provides a more comparable measure from year to year. The table below provides a reconciliation of the GAAP measure of Net income per Class A Nonvoting Common Share to the non-GAAP measure of Diluted EPS Excluding Certain Items (Note that certain amounts will not foot due to rounding):
