MSC Reports a Solid Finish to Fiscal 2018; Maintaining $100 FVE

MSC closed out its fiscal 2018 with solid fourth-quarter results that met or exceeded management's guidance. Reported revenue of $838 million grew 11% year over year, and organic revenue, which excludes acquisitions, grew over 4.5%. Last quarter, we noted that management's efforts to revamp its sales organization was a headwind for organic revenue growth. That headwind lingered in the fourth quarter, but management commented that it expects to see stronger top line growth in 2019.
