Commentary and Guidance:
“Our Identification Solutions business continued its steady
revenue performance in the second quarter with 2.5 percent organic
sales growth and 15.8 percent growth including sales from the PDC
acquisition. During the quarter, sales in our Workplace Safety
platform were down 7.7 percent which was below our expectations. We
have been accelerating investments in our Workplace Safety business
to drive organic sales growth. These investments are aimed at
improving our e-commerce capabilities, expanding our product
offerings and enhancing our overall value proposition which has
resulted in an increase in new customers for the group. While we
are investing to increase our competitiveness, we are balancing our
investments to ensure more profitable growth over the long term,”
said Brady’s Chief Financial Officer and Interim President and
Chief Executive Officer, Thomas J. Felmer. “We have seen
improvements in our Asian and European Identification Solutions’
results and continue to see growth opportunities driven by our new
product pipeline and increased focus on industries such as
healthcare; food and beverage; chemical, oil and gas; and aerospace
and mass transit.”
The Company anticipates organic sales from continuing operations
to range from a slight contraction to low single-digit growth for
the full year ending July 31, 2014. The Company anticipates its
earnings from continuing operations per diluted Class A Nonvoting
Common Share to range from $1.55 to $1.75, exclusive of
restructuring charges. This guidance is based on current exchange
rates, a full-year income tax rate in the mid-to-upper 20 percent
range, depreciation and amortization of approximately $45 to $50
million, and approximately $22 million of restructuring charges in
fiscal 2014. Our guidance also includes capital expenditures of
approximately $40 million in fiscal 2014.

In this news release, statements that are not reported financial
results or other historic information are “forward-looking
statements.” These forward-looking statements relate to, among
other things, the Company's future financial position, business
strategy, targets, projected sales, costs, earnings, capital
expenditures, debt levels and cash flows, and plans and objectives
of management for future operations.
The use of words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,”
“estimate,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “should,” “project” or “plan”
or similar terminology are generally intended to identify
forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements by
their nature address matters that are, to different degrees,
uncertain and are subject to risks, assumptions, and other factors,
some of which are beyond Brady's control, that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by
such forward-looking statements. For Brady, uncertainties arise
from: Implementation of the Workplace Safety strategy; the length
or severity of the current worldwide economic downturn or timing or
strength of a subsequent recovery; future financial performance of
major markets Brady serves, which include, without limitation,
telecommunications, hard disk drive, manufacturing, electrical,
construction, laboratory, education, governmental, public utility,
computer, healthcare and transportation; future competition;
changes in the supply of, or price for, parts and components;
increased price pressure from suppliers and customers; Brady's
ability to retain significant contracts and customers; fluctuations
in currency rates versus the U.S. dollar; risks associated with
international operations; difficulties associated with exports;
risks associated with obtaining governmental approvals and
maintaining regulatory compliance; Brady's ability to develop and
successfully market new products; risks associated with
identifying, completing, and integrating acquisitions; risks
associated with divestitures and businesses held for sale; risks
associated with restructuring plans; environmental, health and
safety compliance costs and liabilities; risk associated with loss
of key talent; risk associated with product liability claims;
technology changes and potential security violations to the
Company's information technology systems; Brady's ability to
maintain compliance with its debt covenants; increase in our level
of debt; potential write-offs of Brady's substantial intangible
assets; unforeseen tax consequences; risk, associated with our
ownership structure; and numerous other matters of national,
regional and global scale, including those of a political,
economic, business, competitive, and regulatory nature contained
from time to time in Brady's U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission filings, including, but not limited to, those factors
listed in the “Risk Factors” section within Item 1A of Part I
of Brady’s Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2013.
These uncertainties may cause Brady's actual future results to
be materially different than those expressed in its forward-looking
statements. Brady does not undertake to update its forward-looking
statements except as required by law.

EBITDA from Continuing Operations Brady is presenting EBITDA
from Continuing Operations because it is used by many of our
investors and lenders, and is presented as a convenience to them.
EBITDA from Continuing Operations represents earnings (loss) from
continuing operations before interest expense, income taxes,
depreciation, amortization and impairment charges. EBITDA from
Continuing Operations is not a calculation based on generally
accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The amounts included in
the EBITDA from Continuing Operations calculation, however, are
derived from amounts included in the Consolidated Financial
Statements and supporting footnote disclosures. EBITDA from
Continuing Operations should not be considered as an alternative to
net earnings or operating income as an indicator of the Company's
operating performance, or as an alternative to net cash provided by
operating activities as a measure of liquidity. The EBITDA from
Continuing Operations measure presented may not always be
comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies
due to differences in the components of the calculation.
