NEW YORK - On Thursday, ScanSource , Inc. (NASDAQ:SCSC) reported fourth-quarter results that exceeded analyst expectations and provided an optimistic outlook for fiscal year 2026.

The technology distributor’s shares gained 3.36% in pre-market trading after the announcement.

The Greenville, South Carolina-based company posted adjusted earnings of $1.02 per share for the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2025, surpassing the analyst consensus of $0.93. Revenue reached $812.9 million, significantly above the $776.21 million analysts had expected and up 8.9% from $746.1 million in the same quarter last year.

"We delivered strong free cash flow for our fiscal year and achieved excellent profitability growth across the board," said Mike Baur, Chair and CEO of ScanSource. "As we enter fiscal year 2026, we plan to make strategic investments in our business to accelerate growth and expand margins."

The company’s Specialty Technology Solutions segment, which accounts for the bulk of its business, saw net sales increase 9.2% YoY to $788.7 million, driven by broad-based growth in North America. Recurring revenue jumped 30% YoY, including contributions from acquisitions.
