Total revenues for the three months ending on 31 December jumped by 5.7% versus one year before to reach $173.4bn.

On an adjusted basis, earnings per share were seen coming in at between $1.48-1.56.
For all of fiscal year 2025, consolidated net sales were seen rising by 3.0-4.0% and adjusted EPS reaching $6.70-7.12.
