NORTHBROOK, IL, July 31, 2024 - IDEX Corporation (NYSE: IEX) today announced its financial results for the three-month period ended June 30, 2024.

“IDEX teams delivered strong execution in the second quarter, expanding margins sequentially despite stronger uncertainty-fueled macro headwinds,” said Eric D. Ashleman, IDEX Corporation Chief Executive Officer and President.

“As we tune the portfolio for sustained growth performance, our business leaders are deploying focused resources to our best long term growth initiatives within attractive application areas. We are bolstering those efforts through thoughtful and disciplined capital deployment. Our recently announced acquisition of Mott Corporation is a powerful example given its outstanding fit with our businesses and strategy.”

(a) There were no non-GAAP adjustments to Gross profit or Gross margin during the periods presented.

•Organic net sales were down 4%, primarily driven by lower volumes in our Health & Science Technologies segment, partially offset by price capture across all segments.
•Gross margin of 45.4% increased 70 bps primarily due to strong price/cost and favorable operational productivity, partially offset by unfavorable mix, higher employee-related costs and lower volume leverage.
•Net income margin of 17.5% increased 110 bps and reported Diluted EPS of $1.86 increased $0.04. In addition to results discussed above, Net income margin and reported Diluted EPS were favorably impacted by the absence of a reserve recorded in the prior year period on an investment with a collaborative partner, lower interest expense, the gain on sale of Alfa Valvole, Srl during the current year period and lower restructuring charges, all of which was mostly offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses. Adjusted diluted EPS of $2.06 decreased $0.12, and excluded the year over year benefit from non-GAAP adjusted items during the period.
•Adjusted EBITDA margin of 27.8% decreased 60 bps driven by lower volume leverage, unfavorable mix and higher variable compensation and discretionary spending, partially offset by strong price/cost and favorable operational productivity.

(a) Three month data includes the results of the acquisitions of Iridian Spectral Technologies (May 2023) and STC Material Solutions (December 2023) in the HST segment. Three month data also includes the results of Micropump, Inc. (August 2023) and Novotema, SpA (December 2023) in the HST segment and Alfa Valvole Srl (June 2024) in the FMT segment through the dates of disposition.
(b) Segment Adjusted EBITDA excludes unallocated corporate costs which are included in Corporate and other.

Fluid & Metering Technologies Segment
•Organic net sales for the second quarter 2024 were flat period-over-period with strong price capture offsetting the impact of lower volumes.
•Adjusted EBITDA margin for the second quarter 2024 decreased primarily due to higher discretionary spending, lower volume leverage and higher employee-related costs, partially offset by strong price/cost and favorable operational productivity.

Health & Science Technologies Segment
•Organic net sales for the second quarter 2024 were negatively impacted by lower volumes driven by continued broad based market softness, which began in the second half of 2023. This decrease was partially offset by price capture across all markets.
•Adjusted EBITDA margin for the second quarter 2024 increased primarily due to the accretive impact of divestitures. Excluding the impact of acquisitions and divestitures, Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased 20 bps as a result of lower volume leverage, unfavorable mix and higher employee-related costs, partially offset by favorable operational productivity, strong price/cost and lower discretionary spending.

Fire & Safety/Diversified Products Segment
•Organic net sales for the second quarter 2024 were positively impacted by price capture across all markets, which more than offset the impact of slightly lower volumes.
•Adjusted EBITDA margin for the second quarter 2024 decreased primarily due to higher employee-related costs and lower volume leverage, partially offset by strong price/cost and favorable operational productivity.






Other Items
•Entered into a definitive agreement on July 23, 2024 to acquire Mott Corporation and its subsidiaries for cash consideration of $1.0 billion, subject to customary adjustments, with expected closing by the end of the third quarter of 2024.
•Divested Alfa Valvole Srl for $45.5 million cash, resulting in a gain of $4.6 million.
•Repaid $25.0 million of the $50.0 million previously outstanding under our term facility.

Non-GAAP Measures of Financial Performance
The Company prepares its public financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The Company supplements certain GAAP financial performance metrics with non-GAAP financial performance metrics. Management believes these non-GAAP financial performance metrics provide investors with greater insight, transparency and a more comprehensive understanding of the financial information used by management in its financial and operational decision making because certain of these adjusted metrics exclude items not reflective of ongoing operations, as identified in the reconciliations below. Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial performance metrics to their most directly comparable GAAP financial performance metrics are defined and presented below and should not be considered a substitute for, nor superior to, the financial data prepared in accordance with GAAP. Due to rounding, numbers presented throughout this and other documents may not add up or recalculate precisely. All table footnotes can be found at the end of this Non-GAAP Measures section. There were no adjustments to GAAP financial performance metrics other than the items noted below.

•Organic orders and net sales are calculated excluding amounts from acquired or divested businesses during the first twelve months of ownership or prior to divestiture and the impact of foreign currency translation.
•Adjusted gross profit is calculated as gross profit plus fair value inventory step-up charges.
•Adjusted gross margin is calculated as adjusted gross profit divided by net sales.
•Adjusted net income attributable to IDEX is calculated as net income attributable to IDEX plus fair value inventory step-up charges, plus restructuring expenses and asset impairments, less the gain on sale of a business, plus the credit loss on a note receivable from a collaborative partner, plus acquisition-related intangible asset amortization, all net of the statutory tax expense or benefit.
•Adjusted diluted EPS attributable to IDEX is calculated as adjusted net income attributable to IDEX divided by the diluted weighted average shares outstanding.
•Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as consolidated earnings before interest expense - net, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or consolidated EBITDA, less the gain on sale of a business, plus fair value inventory step-up charges, plus restructuring expenses and asset impairments, plus the credit loss on a note receivable from a collaborative partner.
•Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales.
•Free cash flow is calculated as cash flows from operating activities less capital expenditures.
