Factors Likely to Have Shaped CRS’s Q4 Performance
Carpenter Technology has been witnessing growth across its end-use markets, especially in aerospace, defense and medical applications, which is anticipated to continue throughout fiscal 2025 and get reflected in the fourth-quarter fiscal 2025 results. In the quarter, demand is expected to have accelerated across all aerospace submarkets as the supply chain ramped up to meet increasing travel demand.
However, the company has been bearing the brunt of labor and chip shortages, which are likely to have affected its performance.
Nonetheless, gains from increased productivity across Carpenter Technology’s facilities, higher prices, an improved product mix and increased volumes are expected to have negated these headwinds. The impacts of these are likely to get reflected in the company’s margin results.
