Outlook
Bockhorst continued, "Our first quarter results demonstrate the resilience and durability of our replacement-driven business amidst a volatile macroeconomic environment. As previously communicated, we will face difficult prior-year comparisons in the upcoming second quarter of 2025. Nevertheless, the attractive fundamentals of the water industry, and our ability to add value to customers with an innovative and reliable portfolio of solutions, support our average high-single-digit long-term revenue growth outlook.
We delivered record gross margins in the first quarter, benefiting from a notably favorable combination of product and customer sales mix. While this clearly demonstrates that the structural mix benefit of technology adoption within our business is real, given the evolving tariff picture and related uncertainty, we believe it is prudent to maintain our normalized gross margin range of 38-40% at this time. At present, we are confident in our ability to manage certain tariff-related cost challenges. Our history of strong operational execution, particularly in the management of our supply chain, manufacturing footprint, and value-based pricing strategy, underscores our proven ability to control what we can control in a turbulent economic environment.
The addition of SmartCover earlier this year emphasizes the growing extensibility and appeal of our BlueEdge suite of products and services. Our customers continue to feel the impact of extreme weather events, which makes SmartCover's stormwater management offering a compelling part of our portfolio. Although still early in the integration, we're on track for delivering anticipated sales and cost synergies. Importantly, our solid balance sheet gives us the financial flexibility to fund the capital allocation priorities supporting our long-term strategy, including value-added, disciplined acquisitions.
Bockhorst concluded, "We were proud to be named for the third consecutive year to Barron's 2025 list of 100 Most Sustainable Companies. We carry a responsibility for protecting the world's most precious resource. This gives our employees a sense of purpose, which powers our innovation engine, delivers solutions to our end markets, and generates steady long-term shareholder value."
