FY Guidance

   -- Re-Affirming 2025 Adjusted Guidance 
 
   -- Mitigation Actions Expected To Neutralize Impact Of Current Tariffs On 
      2025 Adjusted EBITDA & EPS 

CEO Louis Pinkham commented, "First quarter marked a strong start to the year, with all segments exceeding guidance, in some cases by wide margins. As an enterprise, we delivered positive organic growth, further gains in adjusted gross margin and adjusted EBITDA margin, grew free cash flow by 32%, and paid down $164 million of gross debt - all reflecting solid execution from our teams, including disciplined cost management. Notably, our PES segment achieved 8.0% organic growth and a point of adjusted EBITDA margin expansion, driven by strong R-HVAC markets. Our AMC segment exceeded its sales and margin goals, aided by particular strength in aerospace and a return to growth in discrete automation. Our IPS segment met its sales forecast, despite continued sluggish general industrial markets, while achieving over a point of adjusted EBITDA margin expansion."

Mr. Pinkham continued, "We came into the year cautiously optimistic we were approaching an organic growth inflection point, underpinned by several quarters of positive orders growth, and a view that most of our end markets were at or near trough levels of demand. This optimism carried into 1Q, with further positive orders momentum, and our sense from customers that many of our markets were poised to rebound. However, recent shifts in U.S. trade policy, in particular around tariffs, have heightened macro uncertainty, though evidence of a slowdown has been largely absent from current demand, and improving longer cycle project activity is providing better visibility for the second half and 2026."

Mr. Pinkham concluded, "Our team remains focused on execution. We have been aggressively implementing plans to mitigate tariff impacts, and expect to achieve tariff cost neutrality in 2025, and margin neutrality by the middle of 2026, under current tariffs. We also continue to execute our synergies, pursue a wide range of growth, productivity, lean and working capital self-help opportunities, and drive free cash flow to continue paying down our debt. In short, I am confident that we will create value for our shareholders in 2025."

divested effective April 30, 2024. 
 

Guidance

Due to a gain on sale of assets in the first quarter of 2025, the Company is updating its annual guidance for 2025 GAAP Diluted Earnings per Share to a range of $4.49 to $5.29.

The Company is re-affirming its annual guidance for 2025 Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share in a range of $9.60 to $10.40. Mitigation actions are expected to neutralize the impact of current tariffs on 2025 Adjusted EPS.

Segment Performance

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

   -- Automation & Motion Control net sales were $396.3 million, a decrease of 
      1.0%, or an increase of 0.4% on an organic basis, ahead of our 
      expectations. Results reflect growth in aerospace & defense and discrete 
      automation markets, net of headwinds in the general industrial and 
      medical end markets and project timing impacts in the data center market. 
      Adjusted EBITDA margin was 21.8% of net sales. 
   -- Industrial Powertrain Solutions net sales were $612.7 million, a decrease 
      of 4.8%, or a decrease of 3.4% on an organic basis. Results largely 
      reflect declines in metals & mining, and the machinery/off-highway 
      markets within general industrial, partially offset by growth in energy 
      markets. Regionally, the segment realized net sales growth in North 
      America, which was more than offset by declines in China, Europe, and 
      Rest-of-World. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 26.9% of net sales. 
   -- Power Efficiency Solutions net sales were $409.1 million, an increase of 
      6.2%, or an increase of 8.0% on an organic basis. The results primarily 
      reflect growth in the N.A. residential HVAC market. Adjusted EBITDA 
      margin was 14.2% 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 diluted earnings per share excluding Industrial, 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, 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.
