Intl currency drivers detailed
Q&A unpacked international currency's outperformance, attributing it to surging counterfeiting in emerging markets, economic growth plus inflation, and accelerating redesign cycles—durable drivers management expects to sustain 10-15 micro-optics wins annually. Amid margin probes, they stressed pricing power on fresh backlog contracts while revealing Q4 SAT's high double-digit currency surge, led by intl. CPI flatness stems from persistent vending tariff effects, easing in H2 on comps, with services up mid-single digits. U.S. $10 bill ramps prudently in Q4. Demand endures.

FY2025 results
Crane NXT delivered FY2025 revenue of $1.66B, up 11.4% y/y from $1.49B, driven by SAT acquisitions (De La Rue May 2025, OpSec 2024) adding 8.9% while core sales grew 0.7%. Operating profit fell 8.2% to $247M (14.9% margin) as SAT margins compressed to 12.0% from 18.1% on acquisition dilution and costs, offset by CPI stability at 26.2% margin despite 3.0% sales drop. Q4 momentum showed SAT sales up 32% y/y on acquisitions and core growth, but CPI vending weakened on trade uncertainty. Debt rose to $1.14B (47.7% debt-to-cap) funding acquisitions, with $242M operating cash flow. No annual guidance disclosed. Cybersecurity threats risk quarterly momentum.
