• Continue To Expect Adjusted Free Cash Flow Of $700 Million Excluding Receivables Securitization Facility Proceeds, Or Over $1.0 Billion Inclusive

CEO Louis Pinkham commented, “Our team delivered strong performance in second quarter, which was modestly ahead of our expectations on sales and earnings. Our PES segment achieved 6.5% organic growth and a point of adjusted EBITDA margin expansion, aided by strong R-HVAC and C-HVAC markets. Our IPS segment also delivered over a point of adjusted EBITDA margin expansion, despite persistent end market headwinds. Our AMC segment met its sales goal for the quarter, but experienced temporary, mix-related margin pressure, primarily due to rare earth magnet availability, which is on track to improve in the back half and is expected to have an immaterial impact for the year.”

Mr. Pinkham concluded, “Encouragingly, strong orders in IPS and AMC demonstrates we are continuing to gain momentum, both in terms of end market recovery and our own outgrowth initiatives, and PES has continued to perform nicely above expectations. While a number of macro-economic and geopolitical uncertainties persist, we are laser-focused on accelerating growth, driven in particular, by our cross-sell synergies and doubling our new product vitality. Notably, we ended 2Q with a $300 million cross-sell opportunity funnel, and are on track to realize $170 million of cross-sell synergies this year, and $250 million by 2027.”

Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility

On June 30, 2025, the Company entered into a $400 million accounts receivable securitization facility. This facility contributed $368.5 million of net proceeds to operating cash flows in the quarter, which were used to repay the majority of outstanding borrowings under the Company’s existing bank loans. Additional details on the securitization facility will be available in the Company’s Form 10-Q, which is scheduled to be filed on August 6, 2025.

Guidance

The Company has updated its annual guidance for GAAP diluted earnings per share to a range of $4.50 to $5.10 and narrowing its annual guidance for 2025 Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share to a range of $9.70 to $10.30. Mitigation actions are on track to neutralize the impact of current tariffs on 2025 Adjusted EPS.

Segment Performance

Segment results for the second quarter of 2025 versus the second quarter of the prior year are summarized below:

• Automation & Motion Control net sales were $411.1 million, a decrease of 2.6%, or a decrease of 3.4% on an organic basis. The decline primarily reflects headwinds in the medical market, project timing in the data center market, and temporary challenges sourcing rare earth magnets, which impacted shipments of certain higher margin products into the defense and medical markets, but are expected to be resolved as we exit the year. These were partially offset by growth in the aerospace market. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 19.5% of net sales.
• Industrial Powertrain Solutions net sales were $649.8 million, a decrease of 3.8%, or a decrease of 4.4% on an organic basis. The decline primarily reflects large project timing in the metals & mining market. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 26.9% of net sales.
• Power Efficiency Solutions net sales were $435.2 million, an increase of 5.9%, or an increase of 6.5% on an organic basis. The results primarily reflect growth in the residential and commercial HVAC markets. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 17.1% of net sales.

Non-GAAP Measures

(Unaudited)

(Dollars in Millions, Except per Share Data)

We prepare our financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). We also periodically disclose certain financial measures in our quarterly earnings releases, on investor conference calls, and in investor presentations and similar events that may be considered “non-GAAP” financial measures. This additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our results of operations prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

In this release, we disclose the following non-GAAP financial measures, and we reconcile these measures in the tables below to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures: adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted income from operations, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net sales, net sales excluding Industrial, adjusted gross margin, adjusted gross margin excluding Industrial, net debt, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA excluding Industrial, adjusted EBITDA (including synergies), interest coverage ratio, interest coverage ratio (including synergies), adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA margin excluding Industrial, gross debt/adjusted EBITDA, net debt/adjusted EBITDA, net debt/adjusted EBITDA (including synergies), adjusted cash flows from operations, adjusted free cash flow, adjusted income before taxes, adjusted provision for income taxes, and adjusted effective tax rate. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful measures for providing investors with additional information regarding our results of operations and for helping investors understand and compare our operating results across accounting periods and compared to our peers. Our management primarily uses adjusted income from operations and adjusted operating margin to help us manage and evaluate our business and make operating decisions, while the other non-GAAP measures disclosed are primarily used to help us evaluate our business and forecast our future results. Accordingly, we believe disclosing and reconciling each of these measures helps investors evaluate our business in the same manner as management. This release also includes non-GAAP forward-looking information. The Company believes that a quantitative reconciliation of this forward-looking information to the most comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP cannot be made available without unreasonable efforts. A reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure would require the Company to predict the timing and likelihood of future restructurings and other charges. Neither these forward-looking measures, nor their probable significance, can be quantified with a reasonable degree of accuracy. Accordingly, a reconciliation of the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measure is not provided.

In addition to these non-GAAP measures, we use the term “organic sales growth” to refer to the increase in our sales between periods that is attributable to organic sales. “Organic sales” refers to GAAP sales from existing operations excluding any sales from acquired businesses recorded prior to the first anniversary of the acquisition and excluding any sales from business divested/to be exited recorded prior to the first anniversary of the exit and excluding the impact of foreign currency translation. The impact of foreign currency translation is determined by translating the respective period’s organic sales using the currency exchange rates that were in effect during the prior year periods.
