The Aerospace & Defense segment achieved record sales of $52 million, and Life Sciences sales grew by 1% to $74 million.

While Donaldson Company achieved record sales in FQ3 despite macroeconomic uncertainties, especially in the aerospace & defense segment, which reached an all-time high in sales, the company incurred a $62 million impairment charge related to intangible assets in its bioprocessing businesses. The gross margin also decreased by 1.1% due to higher manufacturing costs and footprint optimization initiatives.
