  • Outlook: For Q1 fiscal 2024, EMR forecasts net sales growth of 14-17.5%, with underlying sales growth of 6.5-8.5%. Earnings per share are expected to be $0.45-$0.50, with adjusted earnings per share of $1.00-$1.05, slightly below the Zacks Consensus Estimate.

Earnings per share for fiscal 2024 are projected at $3.82-$4.02, with adjusted earnings per share estimated to be $5.15-$5.35.
