IDEX Reports Third Quarter Results

NORTHBROOK, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--IDEX Corporation (NYSE: IEX) today announced its financial results for the three-month period ended September 30, 2024.

"We are encouraged by our third quarter performance. The teams within our Fluid & Metering Technologies and Fire & Safety / Diversified Products segments drove organic growth against an uncertain economic backdrop while delivering strong margins through operational execution," said Eric D. Ashleman, IDEX Corporation Chief Executive Officer and President. "We saw a healthy organic increase in orders within our Health & Science Technologies segment, strengthening our business positioning as we look for signs of extended recovery within the life science and semiconductor sectors."

"Meanwhile, less than two months since completing our acquisition of Mott, the partnership is off to a fast start. Teams from other IDEX businesses are already collaborating with their Mott colleagues, designing new prototypes together that incorporate Mott's highly engineered filtration products. Talented IDEX employees have been integrated into Mott leadership since closing, helping initiate a smooth integration," Ashleman said. "The core advanced technology markets Mott serves, including semiconductor wafer fabrication, transformative energy solutions, medical technologies, and water purification, are advantaged to outperform over the long haul."

"IDEX remains well-positioned, solving difficult problems with customers on the cutting edge of new technologies. We expect to continue deploying resources across our portfolio with our 8020 mindset toward growth accelerators to position us to drive long-term value creation."

• Net sales increased 1% compared to the prior year period as a result of the net impact of acquisitions and divestitures. Organic net sales were flat, reflecting lower volumes in our Health & Science Technologies segment, which were mitigated by price capture across all segments.
• Gross margin of 44.3% increased 20 bps primarily due to strong price/cost, partially offset by higher employee-related costs.
• Net income margin of 14.9% decreased 1,140 bps and reported Diluted EPS of $1.57 decreased $1.18, primarily as a result of the absence of the gain on sale of the Micropump, Inc. ("Micropump") business, which occurred in the prior year period. Diluted EPS was further impacted by lower operating results as well as a higher effective tax rate. The effective tax rate in the prior year period included one-time benefits that lowered the effective tax rate, partially offset by tax recorded on the gain from the Micropump divestiture.
• Adjusted EBITDA margin of 26.9% decreased 150 bps and Adjusted diluted EPS of $1.90 decreased $0.22 reflecting strong price/cost, which was more than offset by higher employee-related costs and lower volume. Additionally, the current year period included $3.7 million of higher transaction-related expenses in connection with the acquisition of Mott Corporation and its subsidiaries ("Mott").
• Adjusted diluted EPS also reflects an $0.11 impact of a higher effective tax rate as compared to the prior year period as discussed above. The adjusted effective tax rate in the prior year period excludes the gain and associated tax impacts of the Micropump divestiture.

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

Fluid & Metering Technologies Segment

• Net sales were relatively flat compared to the prior year period while organic net sales were up 2%. Positive impacts of price capture were offset by the impact of divestitures. Volumes were relatively flat period over period with improvement in the industrial market and strength in our water business, offset by a down agriculture cycle and softness in the energy market.
• Adjusted EBITDA margin for the third quarter 2024 decreased primarily due to higher employee-related costs, higher discretionary spending and unfavorable mix, partially offset by price/cost.

Health & Science Technologies Segment

• Net sales for the third quarter 2024 were relatively flat while organic net sales were down 5%. Net sales were negatively impacted by lower volumes driven by continued broad based market softness. This decrease was partially offset by price capture and the positive net impact of acquisitions and divestitures.
• Adjusted EBITDA margin for the third quarter 2024 decreased primarily due to lower volume and higher employee-related costs, partially offset by price/cost, favorable operational productivity and the net accretive impact of acquisitions and divestitures.

Fire & Safety/Diversified Products Segment

• Both reported and organic net sales for the third quarter 2024 were up 4% and positively impacted by price capture and higher volumes. The benefit of key growth initiatives and strength in the aerospace market was partially offset by the cyclical nature of project sales in our North American dispensing business.
• Adjusted EBITDA margin for the third quarter 2024 decreased due to unfavorable mix. Positive price/cost offset higher employee related costs.

Mott Acquisition

On September 5, 2024, IDEX acquired Mott for cash consideration of $986.2 million, net of cash acquired of $3.1 million. When adjusted for the present value of expected tax benefits of approximately $100 million, the net transaction value is approximately $900 million. This represents approximately 19x Mott's forecasted full year 2024 EBITDA and a mid-teens multiple based on Mott's forecasted 2025 EBITDA. The acquisition is expected to be accretive to IDEX's adjusted earnings per share in fiscal year 2026.

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. The Company has not provided a reconciliation of Mott's expected EBITDA for fiscal year 2024 or fiscal year 2025 because it is unable to quantify certain amounts that would be required to be included in Mott's contribution to net income without unreasonable efforts. In addition, the Company believes such reconciliation would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors.

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 excluding 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. Free cash flow conversion is calculated as free cash flow divided by adjusted net income attributable to IDEX.
