GMS Inc. (GMS-0.79%) has submitted its 10-Q filing for the quarterly period ended January 31, 2025.

The filing reports net sales of $1,260,710,000 for the quarter, a slight increase from $1,258,348,000 in the same quarter the previous year. The increase is attributed to contributions from recent acquisitions and resilient pricing in certain product categories.

Gross profit for the quarter was $393,090,000, down from $414,720,000 the previous year, with the decrease attributed to gross margin contraction due to weakening demand and lower vendor incentive income.
