Guidance cautious on comps, risks
Q&A revealed management attributing full-year guidance conservatism to tough H2 comps, tariff uncertainties, chip supply risks, and Middle East tensions, despite strong Q1 visibility from orders. They clarified ag and rec improvements stem from healthier channel inventories and destocking ends, not end-market booms, crediting share gains to go-to-market focus and $50M+ commercial wins mostly from existing customers. Capital priorities emphasize debt reduction post-1.8x leverage, higher CapEx for productivity, then buybacks/dividends. Tariffs (~$8M H2 2025) will be offset by pricing, mirroring inflation response. No boom yet. Confident tone persists, with Investor Day details eyed for growth durability.
