Challenging Year: Spectrum Brands faced significant macroeconomic and tariff headwinds in fiscal 2025, driving a 5.2% decline in net sales and lower gross margins.

Tariff Impact Mitigated: The company reduced its annualized tariff exposure from $450 million to $70–80 million, mainly through vendor concessions, cost reductions, supply chain changes, and some pricing.

Strong Free Cash Flow: Adjusted free cash flow came in at $170.7 million ($7 per share), beating the company's $160 million target.

Return to Growth Expected: Management expects both Global Pet Care and Home & Garden to return to growth in fiscal 2026, offsetting continued softness in Home & Personal Care.

Operational Improvements: Significant cost cuts, supply chain diversification, and ERP (S/4HANA) upgrades were executed to drive efficiency and resiliency.

Capital Returns: Spectrum Brands returned about $375 million to shareholders in 2025 through buybacks and dividends, reducing share count by roughly 44% since the HHI deal.

Disciplined Strategy: The company will stay focused on cash generation, cost controls, and targeted innovation, with an eye on M&A opportunities in Pet Care and Home & Garden.

Guidance Reinstated: Fiscal 2026 guidance calls for flat to low single-digit net sales growth and low single-digit adjusted EBITDA growth, with strong free cash flow conversion.
