Columbus McKinnon Corporation announced that its Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.07 per common share. The dividend is payable on or about May 11, 2026 to shareholders of record at the close of business on May 1, 2026.

Columbus McKinnon Corporation filed an 8-K noting its presentation at the 2026 J.P. Morgan Industrials Conference and furnishing updated strategic and financial metrics. The deck highlights a trailing twelve-month net sales base of about $2.0B, Adjusted Gross Margin of roughly 36% and Credit Agreement Adjusted EBITDA Margin near 22% for the period ended September 30, 2025.

Management emphasizes an investment thesis built on revenue growth, margin expansion and strong free cash flow generation, with Free Cash Flow Conversion above 100%. The company describes the Kito Crosby acquisition as materially increasing scale and recurring consumables revenue, and targets approximately $70M of annual net run rate cost synergies by year three, plus additional revenue synergy upside. Columbus McKinnon also reiterates a long-term Net Leverage Ratio goal below 2x and an objective to reduce Net Leverage Ratio to below 4.0x by the end of fiscal 2028 through cash flow and integration execution.

Columbus McKinnon has closed its acquisition of Kito Crosby Limited and released detailed unaudited pro forma financials showing how the combined company would look after the deal and a related divestiture. The company agreed to acquire Kito Crosby for cash consideration of $2.7 billion, with total purchase consideration of about $3.0 billion after adjustments and transaction payments.

The purchase was funded with a new $1.65 billion term loan B, a $500 million revolving credit facility (with $75 million initially drawn), a $900 million offering of 7.125% senior secured notes due 2033, and the sale of $800 million of 7.0% Series A convertible preferred shares, initially convertible at $37.68 per common share. In parallel, Columbus McKinnon sold its U.S. power chain hoist and chain manufacturing operations for about $210 million, and plans to use the equivalent of all net proceeds to repay a portion of the new term loan. The pro forma statements reflect higher interest and amortization from the new capital structure, significant new goodwill and intangibles, and removal of the divested business, illustrating how leverage and earnings could change post‑transaction.

Columbus McKinnon has completed the sale of its U.S. power chain hoist and chain manufacturing operations to Star Hoist Intermediate for $210.0 million in cash, with a possible additional $25.0 million earnout if the divested business exceeds a sales threshold in fiscal 2027–2028.

The company plans to use the divestiture proceeds, after taxes and transaction costs, to repay part of its new Term Loan B facility. This divestiture is presented together with the recently closed $2.7 billion cash acquisition of Kito Crosby, which is financed by a $1.650 billion Term Loan B, a $500.0 million revolving credit facility (with $75.0 million drawn), $900.0 million of 7.125% senior secured notes due 2033, and $800.0 million of 7.00% Series A convertible preferred shares.

Columbus McKinnon Corp insider Alan S. Korman reported a small share sale linked to the termination of the company’s Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP). On this Form 4, he sold 302 shares of common stock at $19.15 per share in an open-market transaction, reflecting ESOP shares previously allocated to him.

After this sale, he directly holds 51,532.3931 common shares, including 14,234.3931 restricted shares that vest over time if he remains an employee. These awards are scheduled to vest in tranches between May 2026 and later dates under the company’s equity compensation terms.
