Greenville, South Carolina – ScanSource Inc. Reports Strong Fiscal Fourth Quarter Earnings and Positive Revenue Outlook for 2025

ScanSource Inc. (SCSC) announced a successful fiscal fourth quarter, with earnings reaching $20.1 million and a net income of 88 cents per share. The company’s adjusted earnings, which account for one-time gains and costs, were reported at $1.02 per share. Revenue for this quarter totaled $812.9 million, solidifying ScanSource’s position in the technology distribution sector. For the fiscal year, ScanSource achieved a corresponding profit of $71.5 million, translating to $3 per share, with total revenues culminating at $3.04 billion.

Looking ahead, ScanSource forecasts a full-year revenue projection for 2025 in the range of $3.1 billion to $3.3 billion. This optimistic outlook is bolstered by ongoing strategic initiatives, particularly in enhancing capabilities of Intelisys, a recent acquisition that is central to the company’s growth strategy. The company’s CEO outlined plans to cultivate a more diverse partner ecosystem and capitalize on emerging trends in technology services.

ScanSource’s strong financial performance is attributed largely to a strategic focus on recurring revenue projects, which provide significant contributions to gross profits. Despite this success, the company faces challenges in certain product lines, specifically within video surveillance and point-of-sale technologies. To address these challenges, future strategies will center on enhancing technology advisory roles, enabling the company to better capture trends in the market.

The company further aims to invest in high-margin opportunities, particularly in Contact Center as a Service (CCaaS) and Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS), taking advantage of the rising demand for innovative communication solutions. Current free cash flow stands at an estimated $200 million, expected to support various growth initiatives.

To bolster its market position and operational resilience amidst changing conditions, ScanSource is exploring mergers and acquisitions (M&A) opportunities. This approach aligns with the broader competitive landscape where traditional value-added resellers (VAR) are transitioning towards technology service distribution models.
