RPM International Inc. reported record financial results for its fiscal 2025 fourth quarter and full year ended May 31, 2025.
RPM noted that its fourth-quarter sales were $2.08 billion, an increase of 3.7% compared to the prior year, with record fourth-quarter net income of $225.8 million, record diluted EPS of $1.76, and record EBIT of $271 million.
RPM has a record fourth-quarter adjusted diluted EPS of $1.72, an increase of 10.3% over the prior-year record, and record adjusted EBIT of $314.4 million, an increase of 10.1% over the prior-year record.
The company set a record fiscal 2025 sales of $7.37 billion, an increase of 0.5% compared to the prior-year record, with r fiscal 2025 net income of $688.7 million, record diluted EPS of $5.35 and record EBIT of $865.2 million, record fiscal 2025 adjusted diluted EPS of $5.30, an increase of 7.3% over the prior-year record; record adjusted EBIT of $976.0 million, an increase of 3.7% over the prior-year record; and record adjusted EBIT margin of 13.2%.
Fiscal 2026 full-year outlook calls for sales to increase in the low- to mid-single-digit range and adjusted EBIT to increase in the high-single- to low-double-digit range.
“By leveraging top-line growth with improved operating efficiency, we demonstrated the Power of RPM and generated record results for the fourth quarter and full year,” sasd Frank C. Sullivan, RPM chairman and CEO. “Our ability to provide systems and turnkey solutions for high-performance buildings, as well as our focus on maintenance and restoration, resulted in solid organic growth in the fourth quarter.
“Aided by the continued implementation of MAP 2025 operating improvements and acquisitions, we generated double-digit consolidated adjusted EBIT growth during the quarter, with each segment increasing adjusted EBIT.
“For the full fiscal year, we delivered record sales, adjusted EBIT and adjusted EPS, an accomplishment that we have achieved every year since we began MAP 2025,” adds Sullivan. “Importantly, in fiscal year 2025, we also generated record adjusted EBIT margins, despite a mixed economic environment. These results are a testament to the dedication and persistence of our associates.
“In an effort to continue building on this positive momentum, we are reorganizing into three segments—Construction Products Group, Performance Coatings Group and the Consumer Group,” Sullivan notes. “The former Specialty Products Group businesses have joined our other segments. This streamlined structure will allow our businesses to collaborate more closely to fuel revenue growth and leverage the cultural shift toward working together that has been enabled by MAP. It will also provide additional operating efficiencies, including reduced overhead, which is a hallmark of our MAP initiatives, to continue expanding margins.”
