Organic Bookings Growth: Bookings increased by 7% organically in Q4, indicating robust order rates in key markets and validating the demand outlook for 2025.
Segment Margin Improvement: Segment margin improved to 22.2%, up 60 basis points year-over-year, driven by product mix and fixed cost restructuring benefits.

Engineered Products Volume Decline: The Engineered Products segment saw a decrease in volume, particularly in Aerospace and Defense due to shipment timing, despite posting a record year overall.
Segment Portfolio Shift: The divestitures of Distaco and Environmental Services Solutions Group in 2024 resulted in the Engineered Products segment accounting for roughly 15% of the total portfolio, down from 25% in the prior year.
Foreign Exchange Impact Guidance: The guidance for 2025 includes heightened foreign exchange translation headwinds from the strengthening U.S. Dollar, which could negatively impact financial results.
Increased CapEx Forecast: The company is forecasting slightly higher CapEx in 2025, indicating potential increased financial strain as investments are made without immediate returns.
