Summary of Second Quarter 2025 Results:
The Company’s net revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2025 was $898 million, down 2.1% versus the second quarter of fiscal 2024. Pricing increased net revenue by 0.7%, offset by slightly lower volume, resulting in 0.4% organic revenue growth year-on-year. Foreign currency translation reduced net revenue by 1.2% and the net impact of acquisitions and divestitures decreased net revenue by 1.3%.
Gross profit in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 was $286 million. Adjusted gross profit was $289 million. Adjusted gross profit margin of 32.2% increased 110 basis points year-on-year. Cost savings, the impact of acquisitions and divestitures, and targeted pricing actions principally drove the year-on-year increase in adjusted gross profit margin.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense was $186 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 and adjusted SG&A was $176 million versus $173 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2024. Adjusting for the net impact of acquisitions and divestitures, adjusted SG&A was flat year-on-year, reflecting strong expense management.
Net income attributable to H.B. Fuller for the second quarter of fiscal 2025 was $42 million, or $0.76 per diluted share. Adjusted net income attributable to H.B. Fuller for the second quarter of fiscal 2025 was $65 million. Adjusted EPS was $1.18 per diluted share, up 5% year-on-year driven by higher adjusted net income and lower shares outstanding.
Adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 was $166 million, up 5% year-on-year driven principally by favorable pricing, cost savings, and the net benefit from acquisitions and divestitures. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased 130 basis points year-on-year to 18.4%.
Commenting on the second quarter, H.B. Fuller President and CEO Celeste Mastin said, “Our strong financial performance is a testament to our team's disciplined execution in a highly dynamic environment, and we are performing better than the underlying markets. We remain nimble and focused on delivering positive organic revenue growth, while managing costs in a deliberate manner and leveraging our global sourcing infrastructure to adeptly respond to geopolitical and market uncertainties. Our EBITDA margin expansion highlights the success of the actions we are taking which include an increased focus on pricing, cost savings efforts, and our active portfolio shift towards higher growth, higher margin markets. While global economic activity remains subdued, we continue to perform well and are raising our full-year outlook to reflect our strong execution.”
Balance Sheet and Working Capital:
Net debt at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2025 was $2,016 million, down $59 million sequentially versus the first quarter and up $106 million year-on-year. Net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA decreased from 3.5X at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2025, to 3.4X at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2025. Improved cashflow from operations and growth in adjusted EBITDA principally drove the sequential decrease in the ratio.
Net working capital in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 was relatively flat year-on-year. As a percentage of annualized net revenue, net working capital increased 40 basis points year-on-year to 16.6%.
Fiscal 2025 Outlook:
As a result of our strong financial performance, we are updating our previously communicated financial guidance for fiscal 2025 as follows:
|
■ |
Net revenue for fiscal 2025 is now expected to be down 2% to 3%; organic revenue for fiscal 2025 is still expected to be flat to up 2%; we now expect foreign exchange to adversely impact net revenue by 1.0% to 1.5%; |
|
■ |
Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal 2025 is now expected to be in the range of $615 million to $630 million, equating to growth of 4% to 6% year-on-year; |
|
■ |
Adjusted EPS (diluted) is now expected to be in the range of $4.10 to $4.30, equating to growth of 7% to 12% year-on-year; |

12 We use the term “organic revenue” to refer to net revenue, excluding the effect of foreign currency changes and acquisitions and divestitures. Organic growth reflects adjustments for the impact of period-over-period changes in foreign currency exchange rates on revenues and the revenues associated with acquisitions and divestitures.
13 Corporate Unallocated includes revenue for the North America Flooring business for the six months ended June 1, 2024. This business was sold in the first quarter of 2025 and as a result all activity for prior years was moved to Corporate Unallocated.
