Description: SWK Stanley Black & Decker October 31, 2025

Stanley Black & Decker (NYSE: SWK) is a diversified tools and industrial products company that sells hand tools, power tools, outdoor equipment, and related accessories across North America, Europe, and Asia. Its legacy brands-including DEWALT, CRAFTSMAN, BLACK+DECKER, and HUSTLER-are distributed through retailers, third-party distributors, independent dealers, and a direct sales force.

The business is organized into two primary segments. The **Tools & Outdoor** segment offers a full line of professional-grade corded and cordless electric tools (drills, impact wrenches, saws, etc.), pneumatic tools, fasteners, hand-held vacuums, and lawn-and-garden equipment, sold under the aforementioned brands. The **Industrial** segment supplies engineered fasteners, rivets, weld studs, and related components to automotive, aerospace, construction, electronics, and manufacturing customers, primarily via a direct sales force and selected distributors.

Key operating metrics from the most recent FY 2023 filing show total revenue of roughly **$15.5 billion**, a **12 % year-over-year increase** driven largely by strong demand for cordless tools, and an adjusted operating margin of **~14 %**. Free-cash-flow conversion was about **13 %** of revenue, supporting a **ROIC of ~13 %**. The segment’s growth is closely tied to macro-level construction activity-U.S. housing starts rose ~5 % YoY in 2023-and to the DIY renovation wave, which has boosted sales of consumer-grade tools. A potential risk is the cyclicality of construction spending; a sustained slowdown could pressure the Tools & Outdoor segment’s professional sales.
