CFO & Treasurer at Leslie's
Adjusted EBITDA of negative $38,000,000 to negative $33,000,000 which reflects a lower gross margin rate and includes increased professional fees and a higher incentive compensation accrual. Adjusted net loss of $46,000,000 to $42,000,000 and adjusted diluted earnings per share of a loss of $0.25 to a loss of $0.23 As we shift from the smaller first half to a more meaningful second half, we expect better operating leverage, favorable impacts from the timing of rebates, lower transformational costs and the cycling of one time impacts from last year. For full year fiscal twenty twenty five, we expect the following: sales of $1,300,000,000 to $1,370,000,000 complying revenue in the range of a decline of 2%, a growth of positive 3% year over year. This includes an estimated contribution of approximately 1.5% due to the fifty third week in fiscal twenty twenty five. Gross profit of $473,000,000 to $5.00 $5,000,000 adjusted EBITDA of $96,000,000 to $116,000,000 dollars adjusted net income of negative $2,000,000 to positive $13,000,000 adjusted diluted earnings per share of negative $0.01 to positive $0.07 and CapEx of 35,000,000 to $40,000,000 From a balance sheet perspective, we will continue to look for opportunities to optimize our inventory with the goal of having better in stock positions as we pursue our new precision inventory approach, while reducing our overall inventory levels in fiscal twenty twenty five.
