In its third quarter of fiscal 2025, Ferguson Enterprise delivered a 5% organic growth as pricing turned flat after six consecutive quarters of deflation. Improving price trend and execution triggered a 50 basis point year-over-year improvement in third quarter gross margin.

Goldman Sachs expects the company’s EBITA margin to come at the top end of the new guidance of 8.5% to 9%. The improvement should be driven by improved commodity pricing and finished good pricing. Additionally, the investment bank expects Ferguson Enterprise to benefit from the inflationary impact of US tariffs.
