MSA Safety reported third-quarter 2024 results with net sales of $433 million, down 3% from a year earlier, while GAAP diluted EPS rose 2% to $1.69 and adjusted diluted EPS rose 3% to $1.83. The company expects mid-single-digit sales growth in the fourth quarter, which it says would produce low-single-digit sales growth for the full year. Shareholders get a mixed picture: earnings per share grew on a lower sales base, and management's outlook points to a sales rebound in the final quarter.
Q3 net sales were $433 million, down 3% year over year; GAAP operating income was $91 million, down from $94 million.
GAAP net income was $67 million, or $1.69 per diluted share, versus $1.65 a year earlier; adjusted diluted EPS was $1.83 versus $1.78.
