Insights

Financial Analyst

Taylor Devices delivered record performance with significant Q4 growth and higher margins despite structural market headwinds.

Taylor Devices has posted impressive growth in its fiscal 2025 results, with fourth quarter sales jumping 29% year-over-year to $15.56 million. This strong finish propelled full-year sales to a record $46.29 million, representing a 3.8% increase from fiscal 2024.

What's particularly noteworthy is the acceleration in profitability. Q4 net income surged by 49.2% to $3.69 million, while full-year net income rose to $9.41 million, yielding a net margin of 20.3% - a slight improvement from last year's 20.2%. This demonstrates the company's ability to maintain and even expand margins despite macroeconomic challenges.

The company's earnings per share increased to $3.01 from $2.68, representing a 12.3% improvement. This outpaced revenue growth, indicating effective operational execution and possibly some benefit from the lower share count (shares outstanding decreased from 3.35 million to 3.13 million for the full year).

Looking forward, Taylor's order backlog of $27.1 million provides solid visibility into fiscal 2026. The company's strategy of diversification across Aerospace/Defense, Structural, and Industrial markets is proving effective, with strength in Aerospace/Defense and Industrial offsetting challenges in the Structural segment caused by higher interest rates and unfavorable foreign exchange rates.

The company's 70-year operating history and continued investment in people, technology, processes, and facilities positions it well for sustained growth, particularly in its targeted Aerospace and Defense sectors.
