Current report
These financial results for periods prior to the Separation may not be indicative of Ralliant’s financial performance had it been a separate standalone entity throughout such periods, nor are the results stated herein indicative of what its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows may be in the future.
Current report
Ongoing changes to U.S. tariff policy have resulted in broad-based increases in tariff rates, and several countries, including China, have imposed or threatened to impose retaliatory measures on imports from the U.S. Although the U.S. Supreme Court struck down tariff provisions authorized under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”), the U.S. government immediately replaced the IEEPA tariffs with tariffs authorized under a different provision of law. The U.S. government continues to pursue broad-based tariffs under provisions less vulnerable to legal challenge, and further changes to U.S. tariff policy may be made in the future. On April 20, 2026, Customs and Border Protection launched Phase 1 of an administrative IEEPA tariff refund process. The Company has filed refund claims for IEEPA tariffs paid and eligible for refund under this phase. The timing and amount of any refunds is uncertain. Accordingly, no recovery has been recognized in the accompanying financial statements as of April 3, 2026. Changes to trade policies, retaliatory measures, and sustained uncertainty in global trade relationships have negatively impacted, and are expected to continue to negatively impact, the Company’s operations and financial results, including through resulting supply chain disruptions, increased input costs, delayed shipments, and increased operational complexities and costs. Additionally, these developments have contributed in the past and may in the future contribute to adverse macroeconomic conditions and increased economic nationalism, which could further reduce demand for the Company’s products and negatively impact its business. For additional information, see “Risk Factors” in the Form 10-K.

Enterprise Productivity Program
Current report
On May 12, 2026, Ralliant announced a new Enterprise Productivity Program, which is estimated to drive approximately $50 million to $60 million of net annualized savings once fully executed by the end of 2028. These anticipated savings are inclusive of the Cost Savings Program announced in the prior year. The Enterprise Productivity Program includes expected cost of sales savings primarily driven by strategic sourcing actions and the introduction of a Group Purchasing Office.

Sales
Current report
During the three months ended April 3, 2026 (the “first quarter”), sales increased by 11.0%.
Current report
Geographically, the sales increase of 11.0% year-over-year was driven by 17.2% growth in North America, 8.2% growth in China, 3.9% growth in Western Europe, and 0.8% growth in the rest of the world.
Current report
The year-over-year increase of $32.2 million in SG&A expenses during the first quarter compared with the prior year period was primarily due to standalone public company costs that did not occur in the prior period and increases in other employee costs related to higher compensation, benefits, and contract dis-synergies which are allocated to the segments.
Current report
Operating profit margin was 12.7% for the first quarter, representing a decrease of 260 basis points compared with 15.3% for the comparable period of 2025. The year-over-year decline in operating profit margin was primarily due to higher operating expenses related to standalone public company costs and higher employee costs allocated to the segments, partially offset by higher volume and price increases.
Current report
Geographically, the sales increase of 10.6% year-over-year was driven by 13.2% growth in North America, 8.8% growth in China, 8.2% growth in the rest of the world, and 0.6% growth in Western Europe.
Current report
Operating profit margin was 27.3% for the first quarter, a decrease of 230 basis points compared with 29.7% for the comparable period in 2025, primarily driven by other employee costs related to higher compensation, benefits, and contract dis-synergies, which were allocated from corporate, partially offset by price increases.
Current report
The year-over-year increase in organic revenue was primarily attributable to increased sales volumes of 8.3%, primarily driven by strengthened demand across communications and diversified electronics end markets. Year-over-year price increases contributed 0.4% to sales growth in the first quarter and is reflected as a component of the change in organic revenue.
Current report
Geographically, the sales increase of 11.6% year-over-year was driven by 28.3% growth in North America, 7.9% growth in China, and 7.5% growth in Western Europe, partially offset by a 6.1% decline in the rest of the world.
Current report
Operating loss margin was 1.5% for the first quarter, an increase of 480 basis points compared with operating loss margin of 6.3% for the comparable period in 2025, primarily impacted by higher sales volume, partially offset by other employee costs related to higher compensation, benefits, and contract dis-synergies, which were allocated from corporate, and increased restructuring costs.
Current report
During the three months ended April 3, 2026, the Company recognized interest expense of $14.7 million. The Company incurred no interest expense for the comparable period in the prior year.
Current report
In January 2026, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) released a side-by-side package that would exempt U.S. multinational companies from certain aspects of the Pillar Two framework.

For additional information regarding the OECD and the Pillar Two framework, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Form 10-K.

Previous report
Prior to the Separation, the Company was dependent upon Fortive for all of its working capital and financing requirements as Fortive uses a centralized approach to cash management and financing of its operations. Because the Company was part of Fortive for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2024, only cash, cash equivalents, and borrowings clearly associated with Ralliant and related to the Separation, including the financing transactions described in the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section, have been included in these Consolidated and Combined Condensed Financial Statements. Other financial transactions relating to the business operations of the Company during the period were accounted for through the Net Former Parent investment account of the Company.
Previous report
The Company’s business consists of two segments: Test and Measurement and Sensors and Safety Systems. For additional details regarding these operations, refer to Note 12 titled “Segment Information” in the Notes to the Consolidated and Combined Condensed Financial Statements.
Previous report
Segment Realignment and Divestiture
Previous report
In January 2024, Fortive realigned Invetech from the Advanced Healthcare Solutions segment to the PT segment. In June 2024, Fortive divested and transferred ownership of Invetech, excluding the Dover Motion Business, to Invetech’s management team (the “Invetech Divestiture”). As a result of the Invetech Divestiture, in the three months ended September 27, 2024, Ralliant recorded a net realized loss of $25.6 million, which is identified as “Loss from divestiture” in the Consolidated and Combined Condensed Statements of Earnings. The Invetech Divestiture did not represent a strategic shift with a major effect on the Ralliant’s operations and financial results, and therefore the divested businesses are not reported as discontinued operations.
Previous report
See “Risk Factors”, “Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Company’s Information Statement filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Form 10-12B/A on May 28, 2025 and “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further discussion regarding reasons that actual results may differ materially from the results, developments, and business decisions contemplated by the forward-looking statements.
Previous report
In 2025, the U.S. government began imposing tariffs on products from all countries and additional individualized reciprocal tariffs on certain countries. In response, China, in particular, and other countries have announced tariffs against certain imports from the United States. These changes to trade policies, retaliatory measures, and prolonged uncertainty in trade relationships negatively impact operations and financial results, including potential impairment of certain intangible assets, through resulting supply chain disruptions, delayed shipments, and increased operational complexities and costs.
Previous report
Acquisitions
Previous report
On January 3, 2024, Ralliant acquired EA Elektro-Automatik Holding GmbH (“EA”), a leading supplier of high-power electronic test solutions for energy storage, mobility, hydrogen, and renewable energy applications. The acquisition of EA bolsters Ralliant’s innovative portfolio of products and services for engineers with complementary test and measurement solutions enabling the global energy transition. The total consideration paid was approximately $1.72 billion, net of acquired cash. Fortive, on behalf of Ralliant, funded this transaction with financing activities and available cash. Ralliant recorded approximately $1.18 billion of goodwill within its Test and Measurement segment related to the EA acquisition, which was not tax deductible. The Company anticipates future tax benefits as a result of the transaction.

Previous wording
Management believes that reporting the non-GAAP financial measure of organic revenue provides useful information to investors by helping identify underlying growth trends in the Company’s business and facilitating comparisons of its sales performance with its performance in prior and future periods and to its peers. The Company excludes the effect of acquisition and divestiture related sales because the nature, size, and number of such transactions can vary dramatically from period to period and between the Company and the Company’s peers. The Company excludes the effect of foreign currency translation from organic revenue because the impact of foreign currency translation is not under management’s control and is subject to volatility. Management believes the exclusion of the effect of acquisitions and divestitures and foreign currency translation may facilitate the assessment of underlying business trends and may assist in comparisons of long-term performance.

In connection with the Separation, the Former Parent transferred to the Company certain cash balances and amounts due to banks.
Current wording
Following the Separation, management independently assesses the Company’s ability to generate cash to fund operating and investing activities. The Company believes its operating cash flow and other sources of liquidity will, after giving effect to any dividend payments and debt servicing obligations, be sufficient to fund the Company’s existing businesses, consummate strategic acquisitions, fulfill its contractual obligations, and manage its capital structure on a short- and long-term basis.
