Snap-on closed fiscal 2025 with Q4 net sales up 2.8% and EPS of $4.94, while Tools Group gross margin expanded 150 basis points to 46.1% demonstrating the quality of the pivot strategy. C&I staged a comeback powered by critical industries and power tools, and RS&I posted its fifth consecutive quarter of growth. The dividend was raised 14% marking the sixteenth consecutive annual increase, and originations were nearly flat signaling a potential thaw in big-ticket demand, though international headwinds persisted across C&I geographies.
