Quarter Highlights

Net sales increased, reflecting robust growth across all four segments.

Operating margin and adjusted operating margin increased, reflecting profitable sales growth, pricing and operational performance, partially offset by tariff pressure.

Diluted net earnings per share and adjusted diluted net earnings per share, both at record levels, were driven by higher operating margin and higher sales, offset partially by tariff pressure.

Free cash flow improved significantly, driven by strong earnings and working capital management.

Twelve-month backlog increased 33% to a record $3.3 billion, reflecting continued demand across our markets.

Segment Results
Sales in the second quarter of 2026 increased 13% to $1.1 billion. Space and Defense sales increased 16% to $314 million, reflecting broad-based defense demand. Demand was particularly strong for space vehicles and missile controls. Commercial Aircraft sales increased 15% to $247 million, driven by increased volume and pricing on certain major production programs. Military Aircraft sales increased 10% to $235 million, driven by higher activity on the MV-75 program. Industrial sales increased 9% to $256 million, driven by strong demand for data center cooling pumps, as well as favorable foreign currency translation.

Operating margin in the second quarter of 2026 increased 140 basis points to 13.1%, compared to the second quarter of 2025. Military Aircraft operating margin increased 260 basis points to 13.7%, driven by profitable sales growth. Space and Defense operating margin increased 170 basis points to 13.8%, driven by profitable sales growth, partially offset by increased investments for product development, business capture and operational readiness. Industrial operating margin increased 130 basis points to 12.9%, driven by lower charges associated with simplification initiatives and the benefits from business optimization, partially offset by tariff pressure. Commercial Aircraft operating margin increased 10 basis points to 11.9%, driven by pricing benefits, partially offset by tariff pressure.

Adjusted operating margin excludes $3 million and $7 million of charges primarily associated with simplification initiatives in the second quarter of 2026 and 2025, respectively. Industrial adjusted operating margin decreased 20 basis points to 13.2% in the second quarter of 2026 compared with the second quarter of 2025, as tariff pressure offset simplification benefits.

Free Cash Flow Results
Free cash flow for the quarter was $98 million. Strong earnings contributed to cash generation, while working capital remained relatively constant despite strong sales growth. Inventory growth to support higher sales was largely offset by customer advances. Capital expenditures were $32 million, reflecting continued investment to support future growth.

Fiscal 2026 Financial Guidance
“We had an outstanding second quarter and expect an even stronger business performance in the second half of 2026," said Jennifer Walter, CFO. “We're increasing our 2026 guidance for sales and adjusted earnings per share, and reaffirming our guidance for adjusted operating margin and free cash flow conversion.”

Cautionary Statement
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which can be identified by words such as: “may,” “will,” “should,” “believes,” “expects,” “expected,” “intends,” “plans,” “projects,” “approximate,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” “outlook,” “forecast,” “anticipates,” “presume,” “assume” and other words and terms of similar meaning (including their negative counterparts or other various or comparable terminology). These forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, are neither historical facts nor guarantees of future performance and are subject to several factors, risks and uncertainties, the impact or occurrence of which could cause actual results to differ materially from the expected results described in the forward-looking statements.

Although it is not possible to create a comprehensive list of all factors that may cause our actual results to differ from the results expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements or that may affect our future results, some of these factors and other risks and uncertainties are described in Item 1A “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K and in our other periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and include, but are not limited to, risks relating to: (i) our operation in highly competitive markets with competitors who may have greater resources than we possess; (ii) our operation in cyclical markets that are sensitive to domestic and foreign economic conditions and events; (iii) current and future geopolitical conditions and events, including wars, armed conflicts, sanctions, trade restrictions and related disruptions to global markets and supply chains; (iv) our heavy dependence on government contracts that may not be fully funded, delayed or terminated; (v) our ability to remediate the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting and maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures; (vi) supply chain constraints and inflationary impacts on prices for raw materials and components used in our products; (vii) failure of our subcontractors or suppliers to perform their contractual obligations; (viii) risks related to information systems interruptions, intrusions, cybersecurity threats or new software implementations; and (ix) our accounting estimates for over-time contracts and any changes we may need to make thereto. You should evaluate all forward-looking statements made in this press release in the context of these risks and uncertainties.

While we believe we have identified and discussed in our SEC filings the material risks affecting our business, there may be additional factors, risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently consider immaterial that may affect the forward-looking statements we make herein. Given these factors, risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as predictive of future results. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we disclaim any obligation to update any forward-looking statement made in this press release, except as required by applicable law.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The press release also includes certain financial information that is not presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), including, but not limited to, “Adjusted Operating Margin,” “Adjusted Diluted Net Earnings Per Share,” “Adjusted Net Earnings,” “Adjusted Effective Tax Rate,” “Free Cash Flow” and “Free Cash Flow Conversion.” While we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures may be useful in evaluating our financial condition and results of operations, this information should be considered supplemental and is not a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Adjustments to operating profit and margin and net earnings per share have included restructuring charges; acquisition- and integration-related costs; gains or losses on investments; asset impairments; litigation and regulatory matters; discrete tax items; changes in the fair value of contingent consideration; foreign exchange gains or losses; and other non-recurring or non-cash items. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures can be found in the accompanying materials.

The press release also includes certain forward-looking non-GAAP financial guidance, including, but not limited to, “Adjusted Diluted Net Earnings per Share,” “Adjusted Operating Margin” and “Free Cash Flow Conversion". The Company is unable to provide a reconciliation of such forward-looking non-GAAP guidance to the most directly comparable GAAP measures without unreasonable effort because certain items that are material to the comparable GAAP measures are not available and cannot be estimated with reasonable certainty. These items are dependent on future events that are difficult to predict and outside the Company’s control. These items may include, but are not limited to, restructuring charges; acquisition- and integration-related costs; gains or losses on investments; asset impairments; litigation and regulatory matters; discrete tax items; changes in the fair value of contingent consideration; foreign exchange gains or losses; and other non-recurring or non-cash items. The timing and amount of these items may vary significantly from period to period and could have a material impact on the Company’s GAAP results, including, but not limited to, “Diluted Net Earnings per Share” and “Operating Margin”.

Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided (used) by operating activities, less purchase of property, plant and equipment, less the benefit from the Receivables Purchase Agreement. Free cash flow conversion is defined as free cash flow divided by adjusted net earnings. Free cash flow and free cash flow conversion are not measures determined in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable with the measures as used by other companies. However, management believes these adjusted financial measures may be useful in evaluating the liquidity, financial condition and results of operations of the Company. This information should be considered supplemental and is not a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
