Murphy said that even though Ferguson is facing "a dynamic and uncertain environment," because of the Q3 performance the company was raising its full-year sales outlook to a low- to mid-single-digit percentage growth from a low-single-digit percentage gain, and adjusted operating margin to 8.5% to 9.0% from 8.3% to 8.8%. 

Ferguson Enterprises shares, which entered the day up less than 4% this year, soared 13% soon after the opening bell.
