Commentary:
“This quarter, we generated an all-time record high EPS, capping off Brady’s best earnings year ever. For the full year ended July 31, 2022, we earned GAAP EPS of $2.90, which was a 17.4 percent increase over the previous year, which was also a record,” said Brady’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Russell R. Shaller. “Our Identification Solutions segment is performing very well, with strong organic sales growth and a robust pipeline of new products, including products that position us well to help our customers become more efficient, thus taking advantage of the global trend towards increased factory automation. In our Workplace Safety segment, the actions we took to simplify our product offering, to streamline our cost structure, and to improve our price competitiveness resulted in another strong quarter. Segment profit increased by more than 65 percent in our Workplace Safety segment this quarter. While we recognize that macro-economic challenges are clouding the global economic outlook, we are entering fiscal 2023 with positive momentum, a highly-engaged workforce, and a strong balance sheet, which we believe position us for future success.”
“Not only did we have total revenue growth of 13.7 percent and record EPS this year, we also used our strong balance sheet and cash generation to return funds to our shareholders in the form of share buybacks and increasing dividends. This year, we repurchased a total of 2.3 million shares for $109.2 million and we returned another $45.9 million to our shareholders in the form of dividends,” said Brady’s Chief Financial Officer, Aaron Pearce. “Even after returning more than $155 million to our shareholders this year, we were still in a net cash position of $19 million at July 31, 2022. We believe that we are well-positioned for the future, as we have built up inventory levels to ensure a steady supply of products to our customers and we have a solid balance sheet, which provides opportunities to drive shareholder value.”
Fiscal 2023 Guidance:
Brady expects GAAP earnings per diluted Class A Nonvoting Common Share to range from $3.13 to $3.43, which would be an increase of 7.9 percent to 18.3 percent over the GAAP earnings per diluted Class A nonvoting Common Share of $2.90 for the year ended July 31, 2022.
Brady also expects Diluted EPS Excluding Certain Items* to range from $3.30 to $3.60 for the year ending July 31, 2023, which would be an increase of 4.8 percent to 14.3 percent over Diluted EPS Excluding Certain Items* of $3.15 for the year ended July 31, 2022. Excluded from this Diluted EPS Excluding Certain Items* guidance is expected amortization expense equating to $0.17 per share for the year ending July 31, 2023.
Included in our fiscal 2023 guidance are a full-year income tax rate of approximately 20 percent and depreciation and amortization expense ranging from $32 million to $34 million. Capital expenditures are expected to approximate $32 million, which is inclusive of facility construction costs of approximately $10 million. Our fiscal 2023 guidance is based on foreign currency exchange rates as of July 31, 2022 and assumes continued economic growth.

For Brady, uncertainties arise from: increased cost of raw materials, labor and freight as well as material shortages and supply chain disruptions; adverse impacts of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic or other pandemics; 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; Brady’s ability to identify, integrate, and grow acquired companies, and to manage contingent liabilities from divested businesses; difficulties in protecting our websites, networks, and systems against security breaches; 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; 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; 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, 2022.
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.
