IMPACTS OF TARIFFS AND OTHER COST INCREASES
Current report
On April 2, 2025, the U.S. government announced, and subsequently amended, significant additional tariffs on goods imported to the U.S. In response, certain governments, including China and Canada, announced significant retaliatory tariffs on goods imported from the U.S. We continue to analyze the impact of these tariffs, and any reciprocal tariffs, on our business. While we do not expect these new tariffs to have a direct material impact on our results of operations in fiscal year 2025, we are unable to determine the full extent or duration at this time, as well as the impact of such tariffs on general economic conditions in relevant global and North American markets. We believe that our diverse set of businesses, along with our strong balance sheet and available liquidity, position us well to manage the direct adverse impacts of the tariffs. We have taken actions to manage near-term costs and cash flows, and implemented actions to address potential material sourcing challenges we could face over the near-term. Lastly, we will continue to assess the actual and expected impacts of the tariffs and the need for further actions.

Current report
Revenues for the three months ended March 29, 2025 totaled $482.6, compared to $465.2 during the respective period in 2024. The increasein revenues during the three months ended March 29, 2025, compared to the respective prior-year period, was due primarily to(i) inorganic revenue growth resulting from the Ingénia and KTS acquisitions (within the HVAC and Detection and Measurement reportable segments, respectively) and (ii) organic revenue growth within the HVAC reportable segment, partially offset by an organic revenue decline within the Detection and Measurement reportable segment. The organic revenue growth within the HVAC reportable segment was due primarily to higher volumes of heating products associated with unseasonably warm winter conditions prevalent in the relevant end markets during the first quarter of 2024. The organic revenue decline within the Detection and Measurement reportable segment was due primarily tolower volumes within (i) our aids to navigation project business, and (ii) our inspection and rehabilitation business due primarily to the timing of shipments of inspection products. These declines were partially offset by higher project volumes within our communication technologies business. Volumes within our project businesses, primarily within our communication technologies, aids to navigation, and transportation systems businesses, can vary from period to period based on the timing of project execution.

Revenues for the three months ended September 28, 2024, totaled $483.7 compared to $448.7 during the respective period in 2023. The increase in revenues, compared to the respective period in 2023, was due primarily to (i) organic revenue growth within the HVAC reportable segment and (ii) inorganic revenue growth resulting from the Ingénia acquisition within the HVAC reportable segment, partially offset by an organic revenue decline within the Detection and Measurement reportable segment. The organic revenue growth within the HVAC reportable segment was due primarily to increased volume of cooling products driven by continued strength in demand and higher throughput resulting from expanded production capacity. The organic revenue decline within the Detection and Measurement reportable segment was primarily driven by lower large project volume within our communication technologies business associated with a larger-than-typical project that executed throughout 2023 and completed during the first quarter of 2024. This decline was partially offset by higher project volumes at our transportation and aids to navigation businesses, in which volume can vary from period to period based on project execution timing.
Previous report
Revenues for the nine months ended September 28, 2024, totaled $1,450.2 compared to $1,271.8 during the respective period in 2023. The increase in revenues, compared to the respective period in 2023, was due primarily to (i) inorganic revenue growth resulting from the Ingénia, ASPEQ, and TAMCO acquisitions (each within the HVAC reportable segment) and (ii) organic revenue growth within the HVAC reportable segment, partially offset by an organic revenue decline within the Detection and Measurement reportable segment. The organic revenue growth within the HVAC reportable segment was due primarily to (i) increased volume of cooling products driven by continued strength in demand and higher throughput resulting from expanded production capacity and (ii) execution of a larger-than-typical service project. These increases were partially offset by organic revenue declines of heating products due primarily to (i) the unseasonably warm winter conditions prevalent in the relevant end markets during the first quarter of 2024 and (ii) higher volumes during the first quarter of 2023 that was supported by elevated backlog resulting from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The organic revenue decline within the Detection and Measurement reportable segment was primarily driven by (i) lower large project volume within our communication technologies business associated with a larger-than-typical project that executed throughout 2023 and completed in the first quarter of 2024 and, to a lesser extent, (ii) modestly lower global demand for location and inspection products. These declines were partially offset by higher project volumes at our transportation and aids to navigation businesses, in which volume can vary from period to period based on project execution timing.
Previous report
The increase in cash flows from operating activities was due primarily to cash inflows resulting from the increase in operating income discussed above, exclusive of the non-cash expenses (primarily intangible asset amortization and depreciation expense) incurred during the respective periods, and reductions in the level of elevated purchases of raw materials and components during the 2024 period due to stabilization of the supply chain environment. These impacts were primarily offset by (i) decreases in cash flows at certain of our project-related businesses, as cash flows for these businesses are often subject to contract milestones that can impact the timing of cash flows from period to period, (ii) additional interest payments of $16.7 due to higher average debt balances resulting from borrowings associated with the Ingénia, ASPEQ, and TAMCO acquisitions, (iii) $11.9 in additional short-term incentive compensation payments, (iv) a payment, during the first quarter of 2024, related to the resolution of a dispute with a former representative at one of our businesses within the Detection and Measurement reportable segment of $9.0, and (v) payment of $8.4 associated with a settlement for additional contingent consideration to the seller of ULC mentioned above.

Non-GAAP Measures — Organic revenue growth (decline) presented herein is defined as revenue growth (decline) excluding the effects of foreign currency fluctuations and acquisitions/divestitures. We believe this metric is a useful financial measure for investors in evaluating our operating performance for the periods presented as, when considered in conjunction with our revenues, it presents a useful tool to evaluate our ongoing operations and provides investors with a tool they can use to evaluate our management of assets held from period to period. In addition, organic revenue growth (decline) is one of the factors we use in internal evaluations of the overall performance of our business. This metric, however, is not a measure of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), should not be considered a substitute for net revenue growth (decline) as determined in accordance with GAAP, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

For the nine months ended September 28, 2024, we recorded an income tax provision of $32.2 on $177.5 of pre-tax income from continuing operations, resulting in effective rate of 18.1%. This compares to an income tax provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 of $31.5 on $144.6 of pre-tax income from continuing operations, resulting in an effective rate of 21.8%. The most significant items impacting the income tax provision during the first nine months of 2024 and 2023 were (i) $10.8 and $1.7, respectively, of excess tax benefits resulting from stock-based compensation awards that vested and/or were exercised during the periods, (ii) $0.7 of tax benefits in 2024 resulting from increased federal tax credits, and (iii) $0.5 of tax provision and $1.2 of tax benefit, respectively, related to revisions to liabilities for uncertain tax positions. In addition, the 2023 rate was favorably impacted by a tax benefit of $1.8 related to the release of valuation allowances recognized against certain deferred tax assets, as we now expect these deferred tax assets to be realized.

Non-GAAP Measures — Throughout the following discussion of segment results, we use “organic revenue” growth (decline) to facilitate explanation of the operating performance of our segments. Organic revenue growth (decline) is a non-GAAP financial measure and is not a substitute for revenue growth (decline). Refer to the explanation of this measure and purpose of use by management under “Results of Continuing Operations—Non-GAAP Measures.”
Previous report
For the nine months ended September 28, 2024, the increase in revenues, compared to the respective period in 2023, was due primarily to (i) inorganic revenue growth resulting from the Ingénia, ASPEQ, and TAMCO acquisitions and (ii) organic revenue growth. The organic revenue growth was due primarily to (i) increased volume of cooling products driven by continued strength in demand and higher throughput resulting from expanded production capacity and (ii) execution of a larger-than-typical service project. These increases were partially offset by organic revenue declines within heating products due primarily to (i) the unseasonably warm winter conditions prevalent in the relevant end markets during the first quarter of 2024 and (ii) higher volumes during the first quarter of 2023 that were supported by elevated backlog resulting from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Previous report
Revenues — For the three and nine months ended September 28, 2024, the decrease in revenues, compared to the respective period in 2023, was due primarily to an organic revenue decline. The organic revenue decline for the three and nine months ended was primarily driven by lower large project volume within our communication technologies business associated with a larger-than-typical project that executed throughout 2023 and completed in the first quarter of 2024. In addition, the organic revenue decline for the nine months ended was impacted by modestly lower global demand for location and inspection products. For the three and nine months ended, these declines were partially offset by higher project volumes at our transportation and aids to navigation businesses, in which volume can vary from period to period based on project execution timing.
Previous report
The decline in corporate expense during the nine months ended September 28, 2024, compared to the respective period in 2023, was due primarily to (i) lower expense related to various strategic and acquisition-related costs of $3.3, largely driven by the ASPEQ and TAMCO acquisitions in 2023, partially offset by expense incurred for the Ingénia acquisition in 2024, (ii) a reduction in short-term incentive compensation expense, and (iii) a reduction in costs incurred for professional services. These declines were partially offset by annual personnel merit increases.

Ongoing geopolitical conflicts, and governmental actions implemented in response to these conflicts, did not have a significant adverse impact on our operating results during the three and nine months ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023. We are monitoring the availability of certain raw materials that are supplied by businesses in the countries impacted by these conflicts. However, at this time, we do not expect the potential impact to be material to our operating results. These conflicts have created additional demand for certain products within our communication technologies business. The longer-term impact of these global events on our business is currently unknown due to the uncertainty around their duration and broader impact.

During the three and nine months ended September 28, 2024, we generated operating income of $78.9 and $218.1, respectively, compared to $57.7 and $158.8 for the respective periods in 2023. The increase in operating income during the three and nine months ended September 28, 2024, compared to the respective periods in 2023, was due primarily to higher income from our reportable segments of $22.2 and $80.8, respectively, lower corporate expense of $0.6 and $5.9, respectively, and, for the three month period, a decrease in integration costs of $1.5. These impacts were partially offset by increases during the three and nine months ended, compared to their respective periods in 2023, in intangible asset amortization expense of $2.0 and $15.8, respectively. The nine-month period ended September 28, 2024 also included increased integration costs of $1.3, primarily related to the Ingénia and ASPEQ acquisitions, and a charge of $8.4 related to a settlement with the seller of ULC regarding additional contingent consideration. The increase in income from our reportable segments was primarily due to (i) the revenue growth mentioned above and associated operating leverage, (ii) more favorable product mix, primarily within the Detection and Measurement reportable segment, and (iii) the impact of continuous improvement initiatives, partially offset by increases in personnel costs, within our HVAC reportable segment, due to annual merit increases and growth-related headcount additions. The increase in intangible asset amortization expense was driven by the acquisitions mentioned above.

During the three months ended March 29, 2025, we generated operating income of $66.6, compared to $64.6 for the respective period in 2024.

The increase in income for our HVAC reportable segment was primarily due to the revenue growth mentioned above. The increase in income for our Detection and Measurement reportable segment was due primarily to (i) favorable product mix, primarily within our communication technologies business, and (ii) the acquisition of KTS. These increases were partially offset by the impact of the organic revenue decline mentioned above.
