"Fiscal year 2024 was exceptionally strong for WD-40 Company," said Steve Brass, president and chief executive officer. "We delivered double-digit revenue growth, with all of our trading blocs performing within or above their target ranges. WD-40 Multi-Use Product, the core of our business, grew revenue 11 percent year over year, and we saw a significant year over year margin recovery of 240 basis points. Our performance demonstrates the strength of our brand and the effectiveness of our strategy.
"Our Four-by-Four Strategic Framework is working. We're turning up the heat on our Must-Win Battles, from geographic expansion to digital commerce. The success we've seen in Brazil and Mexico gives us confidence that we can unlock further game-changing opportunities in emerging markets. As part of our overall commitment to focus on WD-40’s core business, we’ve announced our intention to divest our homecare and cleaning products portfolio. This strategic move will allow us to concentrate our resources on innovating and extending the reach of our higher-growth, higher-margin maintenance products.
"We've also recently introduced our new mantra, 'few things, many places, bigger impact.' This focused approach is already driving efficiencies and better returns on our investments globally, in areas such as product innovation and systems implementation. It's helping us leverage our global presence to drive faster growth and operational excellence. Throughout this growth journey, our strategy remains simple: make our products available in more places and put more cans in the hands of our target end users around the world.
“Looking ahead to fiscal year 2025, we’re well positioned to continue our growth trajectory. Our focus remains on executing our strategy, expanding in high-potential markets across the globe, and driving operational efficiencies. With our strong brand, clear strategy, and engaged workforce, we are confident in our ability to continue delivering long-term value to our stockholders,” concluded Brass.

Fourth Quarter Highlights by Segment:
Americas
•The Americas segment represented 51 percent of total net sales in the fourth quarter.
•Net sales in the Americas increased $4.5 million or 6 percent in the fourth quarter compared to the prior year fiscal quarter. The increase was due primarily to an increase in net sales of WD-40® Multi-Use Product of $4.2 million or 7 percent compared to the prior year fiscal quarter. WD-40® Multi-Use Product sales increased most significantly in Latin America, which were up $5.9 million, and were partially offset by lower sales in the United States of $1.7 million.
•Net sales of WD-40 Specialist® increased $0.6 million or 6 percent in the fourth quarter due primarily to strong sales in Latin America and Canada.
EIMEA
•The EIMEA segment represented 37 percent of total net sales in the fourth quarter.
•Net sales in EIMEA increased $7.9 million or 16 percent in the fourth quarter compared to the prior year fiscal quarter. The increase was due primarily to an increase in net sales of WD-40® Multi-Use Product of $6.2 million or 16 percent. WD-40® Multi-Use Product sales increased most significantly in the EIMEA distributor markets which were up $4.8 million. WD-40® Multi-Use Product sales also increased in France and the DACH(5) region, which were up $1.0 million and $0.6 million, respectively.
•Net sales of WD-40 Specialist® increased $0.9 million or 13 percent due primarily to the combined impact of higher sales volume and the favorable impact of price increases across the regions.
•Translation of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries’ results from their functional currencies to U.S. dollars had a favorable impact on sales in EIMEA for the current quarter. On a non-GAAP constant currency basis, net sales in EIMEA would have been $58.1 million for the fourth quarter.(1)
Asia-Pacific
•The Asia-Pacific segment represented 12 percent of total net sales in the fourth quarter.
•Net sales in Asia-Pacific increased $3.2 million or 21 percent in the fourth quarter compared to the prior year fiscal quarter. This increase was due primarily to an increase in sales of WD-40® Multi-Use Product of $2.9 million or 26 percent. WD-40® Multi-Use Product sales increased most significantly in the Asia distributor markets, which were up $2.9 million due to successful brand building programs in certain regions and the timing of customer orders.
•Net sales of WD-40 Specialist® increased $0.4 million or 24 percent due primarily to successful brand building in certain regions and the timing of customer orders.
•Translation of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries’ results from their functional currencies to U.S. dollars did not have a significant impact on sales in Asia-Pacific for the current quarter.

•Net sales of maintenance products increased 13 percent in the fourth quarter when compared to the prior year fiscal quarter primarily due to increased sales of WD-40® Multi-Use Product in EIMEA, Latin America, and the Asia distributor markets from period to period. Maintenance products are considered the primary strategic focus for the Company.
•Net sales of homecare and cleaning products decreased 2 percent in the fourth quarter compared to the prior year fiscal quarter. The homecare and cleaning products, particularly those in the Americas, are considered harvest brands providing consistent profit returns to the Company and are becoming a smaller part of the business as net sales of maintenance products grow in alignment with the Company’s Four-by-Four Strategic Framework. The Company has previously disclosed its intent to actively pursue the sale of its homecare and cleaning product portfolios in the Americas and the United Kingdom.
Dividend and Share Repurchase Update
•On October 4, 2024, the Company’s board of directors declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.88 per share payable on October 31, 2024 to stockholders of record at the close of business on October 18, 2024.
•On June 19, 2023, the Company’s board approved a share repurchase plan that became effective on September 1, 2023. Under the plan, the Company is authorized to acquire up to $50.0 million of its outstanding shares through August 31, 2025.
•During fiscal year 2024, the Company repurchased 34,250 shares at a total cost of $8.1 million under this $50.0 million plan.
•The timing and amount of repurchases under the plan are based on terms and conditions as may be acceptable to the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer, subject to present loan covenants, and in compliance with all laws and regulations applicable thereto.
Fiscal Year 2025 Guidance
The Company is providing the following fiscal year guidance on a pro forma basis, excluding the full fiscal year financial impact of the homecare and cleaning product portfolios the Company expects to divest in fiscal year 2025:
•Net sales growth from the 2024 pro forma results is projected to be between 6 and 11 percent with net sales expected to be between $600 million and $630 million on a non-GAAP constant currency basis.
•Gross margin for the full year is expected to be between 54 and 55 percent.
•Advertising and promotion investments are projected to be around 6 percent of net sales.
•Operating income is projected to be between $95 million and $100 million. This range reflects anticipated growth of between 6 to 12 percent compared to 2024 pro forma results.
•The provision for income tax is expected to be around 24 percent.
•Diluted earnings per share is expected to be between $5.20 and $5.45 based on an estimated 13.5 million weighted average shares outstanding. This range reflects anticipated growth of between 9 to 14 percent compared to 2024 pro forma results.
“Our fiscal year 2024 performance demonstrates the power of the WD-40 Company business model, with strong performance across all trading blocs and the successful implementation of several strategic initiatives,” said Sara Hyzer, WD-40 Company's vice president, finance and chief financial officer. “Our gross margin has improved substantially, exceeding our guidance range and moving us closer to our 55 percent target. This improvement was primarily driven by favorable sales mix, lower input costs, and enhanced operational efficiencies across our global supply chain.
“Consistent with our increased focus, we continue to make progress on the divestiture of our Americas and United Kingdom homecare and cleaning product portfolios and we expect to complete this transaction in the first half of fiscal year 2025. Looking ahead, we’re guiding for net sales growth of between 6 and 11 percent on a pro forma basis in fiscal year 2025, excluding the financial impact of the homecare and cleaning brands we expect to divest this fiscal year.”
This guidance is expressed in good faith and is based on management’s current view of anticipated results on a pro forma basis. Unanticipated inflationary headwinds and other unforeseen events may further affect the Company’s financial results. Net sales guidance presented on a non-GAAP constant currency basis use weighted average fiscal year 2024 foreign currency exchange rates. In the event the Company is unsuccessful in the divestiture of its homecare and cleaning products in the Americas and United Kingdom, its guidance would be positively impacted by approximately $23 million in net sales, approximately $6 million in operating income, and approximately $0.33 in diluted EPS for the full fiscal year.

Table Notes and General Definitions
(1)In order to show the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on our results of operations, we have included constant currency disclosures, where necessary, in this press release. Constant currency disclosures represent the translation of our current fiscal year revenues, expenses and net income from the functional currencies of our subsidiaries to U.S. dollars using the exchange rates in effect for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. Results on a constant currency basis are not in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“non-GAAP”) and should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We use results on a constant currency basis as one of the measures to understand our operating results and evaluate our performance in comparison to prior periods in order to enhance the visibility of the underlying business trends, excluding the impact of translation arising from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Management believes this non-GAAP financial measure provides investors with additional financial information that should be considered when assessing our underlying business performance and trends. However, reference to constant currency basis should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for other financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
(2)The Americas segment consists of the U.S., Canada and Latin America.
(3)The EIMEA segment consists of countries in Europe, India, the Middle East and Africa.
(4)The Asia-Pacific segment consists of Australia, China and other countries in the Asia region.
(5)The DACH region is comprised of the countries of Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
(6)The Company markets its other maintenance products under the GT85® and 3-IN-ONE® brand names.
(7)The Company markets its homecare and cleaning products (“HCCP”) under the X-14®, 2000 Flushes®, Carpet Fresh®, no vac®, Spot Shot®, 1001®, Lava®, and Solvol® brand names.
