OSHKOSH, Wis. (April 25, 2024) – Oshkosh Corporation (NYSE: OSK), a leading innovator of purpose-built vehicles and equipment, today reported 2024 first quarter net income of $179.4 million, or $2.71 per diluted share, compared to net income of $88.5 million, or $1.34 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2023. Adjusted1 net income was $191.1 million, or $2.89 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2024 compared to $107.6 million, or $1.63 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2023. Comparisons in this news release are to the first quarter of 2023, unless otherwise noted.

Consolidated sales in the first quarter of 2024 increased 12.2 percent to $2.54 billion primarily due to sales related to the AeroTech acquisition of $176.1 million, improved organic volume and improved pricing, offset in part by the sale of the rear-discharge concrete mixer business.

Consolidated operating income in the first quarter of 2024 increased 98.5 percent to $259.7 million, or 10.2 percent of sales, compared to $130.8 million, or 5.8 percent of sales, in the first quarter of 2023. The increase in operating income was primarily due to improved price/cost dynamics, favorable mix, higher organic sales volume and the absence of a loss on the sale of a business. Adjusted1 operating income in the first quarter of 2024 was $275.3 million, or 10.8 percent of sales, compared to $151.7 million, or 6.7 percent of sales, in the first quarter of 2023.

“We're off to a strong start in 2024, as we grew revenues by 12 percent and adjusted operating income by over 80 percent leading to adjusted earnings per share of $2.89 in the first quarter. Our results were driven by outstanding execution as well as healthy demand and strategic acquisitions,” said John Pfeifer, president and chief executive officer of Oshkosh Corporation. "Our Access and Vocational segments both delivered strong year-over-year earnings growth during the quarter and have solid visibility for the remainder of the year.

“We are delivering on many new technologies in electrification, autonomy and digital products. This month, we began production of the USPS Next Generation Delivery Vehicle and built a pre-production pilot of our all-electric, fully integrated Volterra ZSL refuse and recycling vehicle, representing key milestones on programs that we believe will drive growth at Oshkosh well into the future. Our outlook and visibility remain strong across the company, bolstered by solid market dynamics and backlogs, the ramp-up of new programs and capacity expansions. It’s truly an exciting time for our company.

“Based on our strong first quarter results and a combination of solid demand and operational execution, we are raising our full-year earnings per share outlook to be in the range of $10.55 per share and adjusted earnings per share outlook to be in the range of $11.25 per share. We remain highly committed to leading with innovation and delivering exceptional value for our shareholders, customers and the communities in which we live and operate,” said Pfeifer.
