But that was all over shadowed by misses on sales, weak underlying growth, and a suboptimal outlook for the current quarter and fiscal year 2024. For the current quarter, the sales forecast was solid, even as the earnings guidance came up short. On a full-year basis, sales and earnings forecasts fell short of expectations, as did cash-flow-generation targets. Guidance Looking ahead, management's forecast for the current quarter pointed to a better than expected sales result, however its earnings guidance came up short. On a full-year basis, expectations for underlying sales growth and full-year earnings bracketed expectations.

REUTERS/Brendan McDermid/File PhotoAug 2 (Reuters) - U.S. engineering and industrial software firm Emerson (EMR.N) on Wednesday raised its fiscal 2023 forecast, as companies increase spending on automation in response to a tight labor market. Emerson now expects its fiscal 2023 adjusted profit from continuing operations between $4.40 and $4.45 per share, up from its previous outlook of $4.15 to $4.25 per share. The company also expects its 2023 revenue to grow about 10.5%, at the higher end of a 9%-to-10.5% growth it forecast earlier. The industrial conglomerate reported adjusted earnings per share of $1.29 for the quarter through June, beating analysts' average estimates of $1.10 per share.

☆ Emerson Electric to buy NI Corp for $8.2 bln to deepen automation push
▼ + stars: | 2023-04-12 | by ( Nathan Gomes | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +2 min

April 12 (Reuters) - U.S. industrial conglomerate Emerson Electric Co (EMR.N) said on Wednesday it will buy measurement tools maker NI Corp (NATI.O) for $8.2 billion in a bid to boost its automation capabilities. The purchase will allow Emerson to tap NI's software-connected automated test and measurement systems for higher growth and margins in its automation portfolio. Emerson has executed a string of deals over the last few years to streamline itself into an industrial automation provider. The NI deal is expected to close in the first half of Emerson's fiscal 2024. Goldman Sachs & Co LLC and Centerview Partners LLC were financial advisers to Emerson on the deal, while Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP was its legal adviser.

April 12 (Reuters) - U.S. industrial conglomerate Emerson Electric Co (EMR.N) on Wednesday said it would buy measurement tools maker NI Corp (NATI.O) for $8.2 billion in an effort to boost its automation capabilities. Emerson has executed a string of deals over the last few years to streamline itself into an industrial automation provider. The NI deal is expected to close in the first half of Emerson's fiscal 2024. Shares of Emerson, which already owns an about 2% stake in NI, fell more than 2% to $82.55 in premarket trade. NI launched a formal sale process in January after Emerson threatened to challenge its board if it did not engage in deal negotiations.

While advancing more than 10% to an all-time high on the deal news, National Instruments was still trading a couple of dollars below the purchase price. The technology portfolio of National Instruments is "poised to capitalize on the same secular trends as our core business today," the Emerson team added. While we don't like hostile offers, it emerged that deal or no deal Emerson would be OK as long as they didn't grossly overpay. But to be clear, the issue isn't that National Instruments is a bad company and this deal is doomed from the start. Now it's time for management to show us we were wrong and National Instruments was worth the premium price.

April 12 (Reuters) - U.S. industrial conglomerate Emerson Electric Co (EMR.N) on Wednesday said it would buy measurement equipment maker NI Corp (NATI.O) for $8.2 billion in an effort to boost its automation capabilities. The purchase of Texas-based NI, which provides software-connected automated test and measurement systems, will help Emerson achieve a higher-growth and higher-margin automation portfolio. NI launched a formal sale process in January after Emerson threatened to challenge its board if it did not engage in deal negotiations. Reuters reported on Tuesday that Emerson was in advanced talks to acquire NI. Goldman Sachs & Co LLC and Centerview Partners LLC are serving as financial advisors to Emerson, while Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP is serving as legal advisor.

Here's an update on our energy, industrials and materials names in Jim Cramer's Charitable Trust, the portfolio we use at the CNBC Investing Club. In 2022, by contrast, the priority was its variable dividend, which changed quarter by quarter depending on its financial results. The industrial company is one of our more recently added holdings. He also mentioned that Halliburton's top boss, Jeff Miller, has expressed notable conviction that the company's stock price is too cheap. The alternative would be consolidating our holdings to two oil-and-gas producers, along with Halliburton as our third energy stock.

☆ Blackstone strikes twice with Emerson carve-out
▼ + stars: | 2022-10-31 | by ( John Foley | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +4 min

The transaction employs an unusual structure similar to one Blackstone used successfully five years ago. It looks a lot like the deal Blackstone struck with Thomson Reuters(TRI.TO) – the parent company of Breakingviews – back in January 2018. Because debt accounted for around two-thirds of the purchase price, the quick sale roughly doubled the value of Blackstone and Thomson Reuters’ equity investments. Private equity group Blackstone will contribute $4.4 billion in cash, receiving a 55% equity stake in the business and a $2 billion convertible preferred note. Emerson, an industrial conglomerate that makes industrial instruments and software, will retain 45% of the division’s equity and a note worth $2.25 billion.
