Acuity Brands Q4 diluted EPS rises 43% to $3.77 on 2% sales gain

Positive earnings Written later 2.02

Acuity Brands reported fiscal fourth-quarter 2024 net sales of $1.03 billion, up 2.2% from the prior year, and diluted EPS of $3.77, up 43.3%. For the full fiscal year, net sales fell 2.8% to $3.84 billion while diluted EPS rose 24.9% to $13.44. The results are preliminary because the independent auditor's report will not be issued until the company files its Form 10-K.

  • Fiscal Q4 2024 diluted EPS was $3.77 versus $2.63 a year earlier; adjusted diluted EPS was $4.30 versus $3.97.

Briefs are written by AI from the filing text and can contain mistakes — open the filing before acting on anything. Impact (1-5) and tone are the AI's reading of the filing for shareholders, not a price forecast. Not investment advice.

Briefs marked “Written later” were written in November 2026 for filings that were by then more than three weeks old, so months before mid-October 2026 hold a selection: every material 8-K of the past year for the 100 largest companies we cover and the last 15 important 8-Ks of every other one. Briefs the number check holds back are not shown or counted. Also: the last 45 days, briefs by company, A–Z and the live SEC filings wire.
