Donaldson logged higher profit and sales in its fiscal fourth quarter, and issued an upbeat outlook for its current fiscal year.

The filtration-products maker posted a profit of $114.3 million, or 97 cents a share, for its three months ended July 31, compared with $109.7 million, or 90 cents a share, a year earlier.

Stripping out certain one-time items, earnings were $1.03 a share, a cent higher than what analysts polled by FactSet had expected.

Quarterly sales rose 4.8% to $980.7 million and topped the $951.5 million that Wall Street modeled. The company attributed the increase to higher volumes and prices, as well as favorable currency translations.

Sales from the company's life sciences segment jumped 14%, boosted by what it called strong new equipment and replacement part sales. Sales in the company's industrial solutions unit climbed 7.7%, and its mobile solutions unit ticked up 2.3%.

For its fiscal 2026, Donaldson guided for per-share earnings of $3.92 to $4.08, and for sales to increase between 1% and 5%. Analysts are looking for earnings of $3.89 a share on sales of $3.78 billion, up 3.3% from last year.

Shares rose 5.8%, to $79.99, in premarket trading.
