1.    Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited. AMETEK, Inc. (the “Company”) believes that all adjustments (which primarily consist of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position of the Company at September 30, 2025, the consolidated results of its operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 and its cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 have been included. The Company has two reportable segments, Electronic Instruments Group (“EIG”) and Electromechanical Group (“EMG”). The Company identifies its operating segments for segment reporting purposes primarily on the basis of product type, production processes, distribution methods and management organizations. Quarterly results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
2.    Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software (ASU 2025-06) updating guidance on accounting for internal-use software. The amendments modernize guidance to consider different methods of software development, updating the requirements for capitalization of software costs. ASU 2025-06 is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Prospective, modified prospective, or retrospective application is allowed and early adoption is permitted. The Company has not determined the impact ASU 2025-06 may have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income —Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires additional disclosures about significant expenses included in certain expense captions presented on the face of the income statement. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Prospective or retrospective application is allowed and early adoption is permitted. The Company has not determined the impact ASU 2024-03 may have on the Company’s financial statement disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09"), which improves income tax disclosures by requiring (1) consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and (2) income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. It also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The ASU indicates that all entities will apply its guidance prospectively with an option for retroactive application to each period in the financial statements. ASU 2023-09 will require additional disclosures in the Income Taxes footnote, but it will not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

(Unaudited)
The net change for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was primarily driven by an increase in customer advance payments from the 2025 acquisitions. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized revenue of $276.7 million and $324.8 million, respectively, that was previously included in the beginning balance of contract liabilities.
Contract assets are reported as a component of Other current assets in the consolidated balance sheet. At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, $50.7 million and $37.1 million of Customer advanced payments (contract liabilities), respectively, were recorded in Other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.
The remaining performance obligations not expected to be completed within one year as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were $618.8 million and $541.8 million, respectively. Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price of firm, non-cancelable orders, with expected delivery dates to customers greater than one year from the balance sheet date, for which the performance obligation is unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied. These performance obligations will be substantially satisfied within two to three years.

Product Warranties
The Company provides limited warranties in connection with the sale of its products. The warranty periods for products sold vary among the Company’s operations, but the majority do not exceed one year. The Company calculates its warranty expense provision based on its historical warranty experience and adjustments are made periodically to reflect actual warranty expenses. Product warranty obligations are reported as a component of Accrued liabilities and other in the consolidated balance sheet.

Balance at the end of the period$43,788 $39,164 
Accounts Receivable
The Company maintains allowances for estimated losses resulting from the inability of customers to meet their financial obligations to the Company. The Company recognizes an allowance for credit losses, on all accounts receivable and contract assets, which considers risk of future credit losses based on factors such as historical experience, contract terms, as well as general and market business conditions, country, and political risk. Balances are written off when determined to be uncollectible.
At September 30, 2025, the Company had $1,136.0 million of accounts receivable, net of allowances of $13.5 million. At December 31, 2024, the Company had $948.8 million of accounts receivable, net of allowance of $13.0 million. Changes in the allowance were not material for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.
4.    Earnings Per Share
The calculation of basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares considered outstanding during the periods. The calculation of diluted earnings per share reflects the effect of all potentially dilutive securities (principally outstanding stock options and restricted stock grants). The number of weighted average shares used in the calculation of basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share was as follows:
Three Months Ended September 30,Nine Months Ended September 30,

(In thousands)
Weighted average shares:

Equity-based compensation plans937 882 821 896 
Diluted shares231,670 232,224 231,561 232,188 
The calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 excluded an immaterial number of stock options because the exercise prices of these stock options exceeded the average market price of the Company’s common shares, and the effect of their inclusion would have been antidilutive. There were no antidilutive shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.
5.    Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.
The Company utilizes a valuation hierarchy for disclosure of the inputs to the valuations used to measure fair value. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs based on the Company’s own assumptions used
11
Table of Contents
AMETEK, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2025
(Unaudited)
to measure assets and liabilities at fair value. A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The following table provides the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, consistent with the fair value hierarchy, at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024:

The fair value of mutual fund investments is based on quoted market prices. The mutual fund investments are shown as a component of investments and other assets on the consolidated balance sheet.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, gains and losses on the investments noted above were not significant. No transfers between level 1 and level 2 investments occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.
Financial Instruments
Cash, cash equivalents and mutual fund investments are recorded at fair value at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
The following table provides the estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instrument liabilities, for which fair value is measured for disclosure purposes only, compared to the recorded amounts at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024:

Long-term debt (including current portion)$(1,802,113)$(1,756,332)$(1,851,873)$(1,778,719)
The fair value of net short-term borrowings approximates the carrying value. The Company’s net long-term debt is all privately held with no public market for this debt, therefore, the fair value of net long-term debt was computed based on comparable current market data for similar debt instruments and is considered a level 3 liability.
6.    Hedging Activities
The Company has designated certain foreign-currency-denominated long-term borrowings as hedges of the net investment in certain foreign operations. As of September 30, 2025, these net investment hedges included British-pound-and Euro-denominated long-term debt. These borrowings were designed to create net investment hedges in certain designated foreign subsidiaries. The Company designated the British-pound- and Euro-denominated loans as hedging instruments to offset translation gains or losses on the net investment due to changes in the British pound and Euro exchange rates. These net investment hedges are evidenced by management’s contemporaneous documentation supporting the hedge designation. Any gain or loss on the hedging instruments (the debt) following hedge designation is reported in accumulated other comprehensive income in the same manner as the translation adjustment on the hedged investment based on changes in the spot rate, which is used to measure hedge effectiveness.
At September 30, 2025, the Company had $302.4 million of British-pound-denominated loans and $674.6 million in Euro-denominated loans, which were designated as a hedge against the net investment in British pound and Euro functional

currency foreign subsidiaries. As a result of the British-pound- and Euro-denominated loans designated and 100% effective as net investment hedges, $100.2 million of pre-tax currency remeasurement losses have been included in the foreign currency translation component of other comprehensive income for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Other Commitments
In the ordinary course of its business, the Company issues guarantees, stand-by letters of credit and surety bonds to provide financial or performance assurance to third parties on behalf of its consolidated subsidiaries to support or enhance the subsidiary's stand-alone creditworthiness. At September 30, 2025, the maximum amount of future payment obligations relative to these various guarantees was $302.0 million and the outstanding liability under certain of those guarantees was $183.2 million.
9.    Acquisitions
The Company spent $933.2 million in cash, net of cash acquired, to acquire Kern Microtechnik ("Kern") in January 2025 and acquired all outstanding shares of FARO Technologies ("FARO") common stock in July 2025. Kern is a leading manufacturer of high-precision machining and optical inspection solutions supporting a wide range of applications within the medical, semiconductor, research, and space markets. Kern has annual sales of approximately 50 million Euros. Kern is part of EIG. FARO is a leading provider of 3D measurement and imaging solutions, including portable measurement arms, laser scanners and trackers, software solutions, and comprehensive service offerings. FARO has annual sales of approximately $340 million. The transaction was completed following the approval of FARO's stockholders and receipt of all regulatory approvals. FARO is part of EIG.
The following table represents the allocation of the purchase price for the net assets of the FARO and Kern acquisitions based on the estimated fair values at acquisition (in millions):

(2)Includes $93.0 million in accounts receivable, whose fair value, contractual cash flows and expected cash flows are approximately equal.
The amount allocated to goodwill is reflective of the benefits the Company expects to realize from the acquisitions. Kern's design and engineering capabilities complement the Company's existing ultra precision technologies business. FARO's 3D metrology and digital reality solutions expand and enhance the Company's existing ultra precision technologies business.
At September 30, 2025, the purchase price allocated to other intangible assets of $500.7 million consists of $85.4 million of indefinite-lived intangible trade names, which are not subject to amortization. The remaining $415.3 million of other intangible assets consists of $331.1 million of customer relationships, which are being amortized over a period of 17 to 20 years, and $84.2 million of purchased technology, which is being amortized over a period of 15 to 17 years. Amortization expense for each of the next five years for the 2025 acquisition is expected to approximate $24 million per year.
The Kern acquisition includes an $8.9 million estimated fair value contingent payment due upon Kern achieving certain cumulative revenue and EBITDA targets over the period January 1, 2025 to January 1, 2027. The contingent liability was based on a probabilistic approach using level 3 inputs. At September 30, 2025, there was no change to the estimated fair value of the contingent payment liability.
The Kern and FARO acquisitions had an immaterial impact on reported net sales, net income, and diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. Had the acquisitions been made at the beginning of 2025 or 2024, pro forma net sales, net income, and diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, would not have been materially different than the amounts reported.
The Company finalized its measurements of tangible and intangible assets and liabilities for its October 2024 acquisition of Virtek Vision International, which had no material impact to the consolidated statement of income and balance sheet. The Company has not finalized its measurements of the accounting for income taxes for its January 2025 acquisition of Kern. The Company is in the process of finalizing the measurement of the intangible assets and tangible assets and liabilities, as well as the associated income tax considerations, for its July 2025 acquisition of FARO. All amounts may change as the Company finalizes the valuations of the assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and intangible assets.

11.    Income Taxes
On July 4, 2025, the President signed into law the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”), enacting permanent extensions of most expiring Tax Cuts and Jobs Act provisions and international tax changes, including modifications to bonus depreciation, R&D expensing, and interest expense limitations. The Company has determined that the legislation did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
At September 30, 2025, the Company had gross uncertain tax benefits of $238.4 million, of which $193.1 million, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate.
The following is a reconciliation of the liability for uncertain tax positions (in millions):
Balance at December 31, 2024$201.6 
Additions for tax positions38.5 
Reductions for tax positions(1.7)
Balance at September 30, 2025$238.4 
The additions above primarily reflect the tax positions for foreign tax planning initiatives. The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. The amounts recognized in income tax expense for interest and penalties during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 were not significant.
The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was 17.1%, compared with 18.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The lower effective tax rate in the third quarter of 2025 primarily reflects the remeasurement of deferred tax liabilities following the enactment of a lower corporate tax rate in Germany.
12.    Debt
On January 6, 2025, the Company established a commercial paper program under which it may issue short-term, unsecured commercial paper notes. Amounts available under the commercial paper program may be borrowed, repaid and re-borrowed, with the aggregate face or principal amount of the notes outstanding under the commercial paper program at any time not to exceed $2.3 billion. The notes will have maturities of up to 364 days from the date of issue. The Company intends the commercial paper program to provide additional financing flexibility for various purposes including acquisitions. The Company expects that outstanding indebtedness of the Company under both the revolving credit facility and the commercial paper program will not exceed $2.3 billion at any time. At September 30, 2025, there was $635.0 million outstanding under the commercial paper program.
In the second quarter of 2025, the Company paid in full, at maturity, a $50.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 3.91% senior notes. In the third quarter of 2025, the Company paid in full, at maturity, a $100.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 3.96% senior notes.

15.    Contingencies
Asbestos Litigation
The Company (including its subsidiaries) has been named as a defendant in a number of asbestos-related lawsuits. Certain of these lawsuits relate to a business which was acquired by the Company and do not involve products which were manufactured or sold by the Company. In connection with these lawsuits, the seller of such business has agreed to indemnify the Company against these claims (the “Indemnified Claims”). The Indemnified Claims have been tendered to, and are being defended by, such seller. The seller has met its obligations, in all respects, and the Company does not have any reason to believe such party would fail to fulfill its obligations in the future. To date, no judgments have been rendered against the Company as a result of any asbestos-related lawsuit. The Company believes that it has good and valid defenses to each of these claims and intends to defend them vigorously.
Environmental Matters
Certain historic processes in the manufacture of products have resulted in environmentally hazardous waste by-products as defined by federal and state laws and regulations. At September 30, 2025, the Company is named a Potentially Responsible Party (“PRP”) at 13 non-AMETEK-owned former waste disposal or treatment sites (the “non-owned” sites). The Company is identified as a “de minimis” party in a majority of these sites based on the low volume of waste attributed to the Company relative to the amounts attributed to other named PRPs. The Company is participating in the investigation and/or related required remediation as part of a PRP Group and reserves have been established to satisfy the Company’s expected obligations. The Company historically has resolved these issues within established reserve levels and reasonably expects this result will continue. In addition to these non-owned sites, the Company has an ongoing practice of providing reserves for probable remediation activities at certain of its current or previously owned manufacturing locations (the “owned” sites). For claims and proceedings against the Company with respect to other environmental matters, reserves are established once the Company has determined that a loss is probable and estimable. This estimate is refined as the Company moves through the various stages of investigation, risk assessment, feasibility study and corrective action processes. In certain instances, the Company has developed a range of estimates for such costs and has recorded a liability based on the best estimate. It is
19

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)
reasonably possible that the actual cost of remediation of the individual sites could vary from the current estimates and the amounts accrued in the consolidated financial statements; however, the amounts of such variances are not expected to result in a material change to the consolidated financial statements. In estimating the Company’s liability for remediation, the Company also considers the likely proportionate share of the anticipated remediation expense and the ability of the other PRPs to fulfill their obligations.
Total environmental reserves at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were $33.0 million and $29.8 million, respectively, for both non-owned and owned sites. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded $10.2 million in reserves. Additionally, the Company spent $7.0 million on environmental matters for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.
The Company has agreements with other former owners of certain of its acquired businesses, as well as new owners of previously owned businesses. Under certain of the agreements, the former or new owners retained, or assumed and agreed to indemnify the Company against, certain environmental and other liabilities under certain circumstances. The Company and some of these other parties also carry insurance coverage for some environmental matters.
The Company believes it has established reserves for the environmental matters described above, which are sufficient to perform all known responsibilities under existing claims and consent orders. In the opinion of management, based on presently available information and the Company’s historical experience related to such matters, an adequate provision for probable costs has been made and the ultimate cost resulting from these actions is not expected to materially affect the consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows of the Company.
16.    Reportable Segments

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Recent Trends
In recent months, the United States government announced additional tariffs and trade restrictions on goods imported into the U.S. from various nations. The U.S. government is negotiating with several of these nations regarding the tariffs, however, the outcome of these negotiations is still uncertain. Our businesses have been proactive in addressing the potential impacts of tariffs, including targeted pricing initiatives, strategic adjustments to our global supply chains, and leveraging our worldwide manufacturing footprint to localize production and adapt to changing demand patterns. The recent tariff modifications did not materially impact our results for the first nine months of 2025, however, as the situation continues to evolve, we cannot be certain of the outcome, which could adversely impact demand for our products, costs, inflation, customers, suppliers, and the overall global economy. We continue to monitor and analyze the impacts of the tariffs and will continue to implement appropriate actions as necessary to mitigate their effects.
Results of Operations
For the quarter ended September 30, 2025, the Company posted record sales, operating income, orders, and backlog as well as strong operating margins. Contributions from the acquisitions of Virtek Vision International ("Virtek") in October 2024, Kern Microtechnik ("Kern") in January 2025, and FARO Technologies ("FARO") in July 2025, as well as our Operational Excellence initiatives had a positive impact on the third quarter of 2025 results. In the third quarter of 2025, the Company recorded pre-tax acquisition-related costs related to the FARO acquisition, which are comprised of one-time transaction costs and ongoing integration costs. Integration costs are recorded in Cost of sales and primarily include employee severance, change in control costs, and fair-value inventory adjustments.

(e)    Benefits Upon Separation from Service. If a Participant Separates from Service prior to the date on which an In-Service Distribution Sub-Account would otherwise be distributed, other than by reason of his death, any amounts credited to the In- Service Distribution Sub-Account shall be distributed in a lump sum on the later of

If a Participant dies before he begins to receive his benefits from one or more Sub- Accounts in accordance with Section 6.01 or 6.02, the sum of benefits due from all such Sub-Accounts shall be paid to the Participant's Beneficiary in a single lump sum on the first day of the month following the Participant's death, in lieu of any benefits otherwise payable under the Plan to or on behalf of such Participant. The amount of any lump sum benefit payable in accordance with this Section 6.03 shall equal the value of such Sub-Accounts as of the Valuation Date.
(b)    Death of Participant After Benefits Have Commenced.
If a Participant dies after annual installments payable under Section 6.01 or 6.02 from a Sub-Account has commenced, but before the entire balance of any such Sub-Account has been paid, any remaining installments shall be paid in lump sum on the first day of the month following the Participant's death.

(a)    Eligibility for Emergency Benefit.
If the Committee, in its sole discretion, determines, upon written request of a Participant, that the Participant has suffered an unforeseeable financial emergency (within the meaning of section 409A of the Code), the Company shall pay to the Participant from the Participant's Accounts, within thirty (30) days following such determination, an amount necessary to meet the emergency, after deduction of any and all taxes as may be required pursuant to Section 6.08 (the "Emergency Benefit"). For purposes of this Plan, an unforeseeable financial emergency is an unexpected need for cash arising from an illness or accident of the Participant, the Participant's spouse or dependent; loss of the Participant's property due to casualty; or other similar extraordinary and unforeseeable circumstances arising as

Page # 15

a result of events beyond the control of the Participant. It is intended that the Committee's determination as to whether a Participant has suffered an "unforeseeable financial emergency" shall be made consistent with the requirements under section 409(A) of the Code. Cash needs arising from foreseeable events such as the purchase of a house or education expenses for children shall not be considered to be the result of an unforeseeable financial emergency.
(b)    Source of Payment.
Emergency Benefits shall be paid first from the Participant's In-Service Distribution Account, if any, to the extent the balance of such In-Service Distribution Account is sufficient to meet the emergency. If the distribution exhausts the In-Service Distribution Account, the Retirement Distribution Account may be accessed.
Emergency Benefits shall be paid from the Sub-Accounts within each Account in sequential order based on distribution date starting with the Sub-Account with the earliest distribution date. With respect to that portion of any Account that is distributed to a Participant as an Emergency Benefit in accordance with this Section 6.04, no further benefit shall be payable to the Participant under this Plan.
(c)    Restriction on Deferrals.
Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary and to the extent permitted by section 409A of the Code, a Participant who receives an Emergency Benefit in any Plan Year shall not be entitled to make a Base Salary Deferral or Bonus Compensation Deferral for such Plan Year.

6.05.    Payments Upon Disability of Participant.

6.09.    Payment to Guardian.
If a Plan benefit is payable to a minor or a person declared incompetent or to a person incapable of handling the disposition of the property, the Committee may direct payment to the guardian, legal representative or person having the care and custody of such minor, incompetent or person. The Committee may require proof of incompetency, minority, incapacity or guardianship as it may deem appropriate prior to distribution. Such distribution shall completely discharge the Committee and Company from all liability with respect to such benefit.

6.10.    Effect of Payment.

ARTICLE 11. MISCELLANEOUS

11.01.    Hypothetical Accounts.
Each account, sub-account and investment established under the Plan shall be hypothetical in nature and shall be maintained for bookkeeping purposes only. The accounts and sub- accounts established under the Plan shall hold no actual funds or assets. Any liability of the Company to any Participant, former Participant, or Beneficiary with respect to a right to payment shall be based solely upon contractual obligations created by the Plan. Neither the Company, the Board, nor any other person shall be deemed to be a trustee of any amounts to be paid under the Plan. Nothing contained in the Plan, and no action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship, between or among the Company, a Participant, or any other person.

11.02.    Company Obligation.
The Company shall not be required to fund any obligations under the Plan. Except as provided in Section 11.03, any assets that may be accumulated by the Company to meet its obligations under the Plan shall for all purposes be part of the general assets of the Company. To the extent that any Participant or Beneficiary acquires a right to receive payments under the Plan for which the Company is liable, such rights shall be no greater than the rights of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.

11.03.    Trust Fund.
The Company shall be responsible for the payment of all benefits provided under the Plan. Before a Change in Control, at its discretion, the Company may establish one (1) or more trusts, with such trustees as the Committee may approve, for the purpose of assisting in the payment of such benefits. Following a Change in Control, the Company shall establish one
(1) or more trusts, with such trustees as the Committee may approve, for the purpose of assisting in the payment of such benefits, including for the purpose of paying any such benefits that are not required to be paid immediately following a Change in Control in accordance with Section 6.06. If, as a result of a Change in Control, Voting Securities will no longer exist, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, allocate the value of each Participant's Voting Securities to an Investment Fund. Although such a trust may be irrevocable, its assets shall be held for payment of all Company's general creditors in the event of insolvency. To the extent any benefits provided under the Plan are paid from any such trust, Company shall have no further obligation to pay them. If not paid from the trust, such benefits shall remain the obligation of Company. No assets of the trust or the Company shall become restricted to provide benefits under the Plan in connection with a change in the Company's financial health.

11.04.    Nonassignability.
Neither a Participant nor any other person shall have any right to commute, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, anticipate, mortgage or otherwise encumber, transfer, hypothecate or convey in advance of actual receipt the amounts, if any, payable hereunder, or any part thereof, which are, and all rights to which are, expressly declared to be unassignable and non-transferable. No part of the amounts payable shall, prior to actual payment, be subject to seizure or sequestration for the payment of any debts, judgements, alimony or separate maintenance owed by a Participant or any other person, nor be transferable by
AMETEK, Inc., Deferred Compensation Plan

operation of law in the event of a Participant's or any other person's bankruptcy or insolvency, except that the Committee may recognize a domestic relations order in accordance with procedures that it may establish for this purpose. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, and subject to applicable law, all amounts payable under this Plan shall be subject to offset for any amounts owed by the Participant to the Company, consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

11.05.    Not a Contract of Employment.
This Plan shall not constitute a contract of employment between Company and the Participant. Nothing in this Plan shall give a Participant the right to be retained in the service of Company or to interfere with the right of the Company to discipline or discharge a Participant at any time.

11.06.    Protective Provisions.
A Participant will cooperate with Company by furnishing any and all information requested by Company, in order to facilitate the payment of benefits hereunder, and by taking such other action as may be requested by Company.

11.07.    Governing Law.
The Plan shall be construed and enforced in accordance with applicable federal law and, to the extent not preempted by federal law, the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (without regard to the legislative or judicial conflict of laws rules of any state or other jurisdiction).

11.08.    Severability.
If any provision of this Plan is held unenforceable, the remainder of the Plan shall continue in full force and effect without regard to such unenforceable provision and shall be applied as though the unenforceable provision were not contained in the Plan. In addition, if any provision of the Plan shall be found to violate section 409A of the Code or otherwise result in benefits under the Plan being subject to income tax prior to distribution, such provision shall be void and unenforceable, and the Plan shall be administered without regard to such provision.

11.09.    Headings.
Headings are inserted in this Plan for convenience of reference only and are to be ignored in the construction of the provisions of the Plan.

11.10.    Notice.
Any notice required or permitted under the Plan shall be sufficient if in writing and hand delivered or sent by registered mail, certified mail, or reputable overnight delivery service. Such notice shall be deemed given as of the date of delivery or, if delivery is made by mail or overnight delivery, as of the date shown on the postmark on the receipt for registration or certification or on the records of the overnight delivery company. Mailed notice to the

AMETEK, Inc., Deferred Compensation Plan
Page # 23


Committee shall be directed to the Company's address. Mailed notice to a Participant or Beneficiary shall be directed to the individual's last known address in Company's records.

11.11.    Successors.
The provisions of this Plan shall bind the Company and its successors and assigns. The term successors as used herein shall include any corporate or other business entity which shall, whether by merger, consolidation, purchase or otherwise acquire all or substantially all of the business and assets of Company, and successors of any such corporation or other business entity.




IN WITNESS WHEREOF, and as evidence of the adoption of this Plan by the Company, AMETEK, Inc. has executed the same this 29th day of October, 2025.

APPENDIX A
The following Plan provisions apply only to amounts earned and vested (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) before January 1, 2005, and any earnings on such amounts ("Grandfathered Amounts"). Amounts earned and vested after December 31, 2004, and any earnings thereon, are subject to the provisions of the Plan as amended and restated, effective January 1, 2005, or any subsequent amendment and restatement of the Plan.

The purpose of this Appendix A is to preserve the terms of the Plan that govern Grandfathered Amounts, and to prevent the Grandfathered Amounts from becoming subject to Section 409A of the Code. No amendment to this Appendix A that would constitute a "material modification" for purposes of Section 409A shall be effective unless the amending instrument specifically provides that it is intended to materially modify this Appendix A and to cause the Grandfathered Amounts to become subject to Section 409A of the Code.
Although this Appendix A is intended to prevent the Grandfathered Amounts from being subject to Section 409A, neither the Company nor any Employer (nor any representative of the Company) shall be liable for any adverse tax consequence suffered by a Participant or Beneficiary if a Grandfathered Amount becomes subject to Section 409A.

The Company reserves the right, on a prospective basis, to add or delete Investment Funds.

In the event that the Committee, upon written request of a Participant, determines, in its sole discretion, that the Participant has suffered an unforeseeable financial emergency, the Company shall pay to the Participant from the Participant's Distribution Option Account, as soon as practicable following such determination, an amount necessary to meet the emergency, after deduction of any and all taxes as may be required pursuant to Section 12.9 (the "Emergency Benefit"). For purposes of this Plan, an unforeseeable financial emergency is an unexpected need for cash arising from an illness, casualty loss, sudden financial reversal, or other such unforeseeable occurrence. Cash needs arising from foreseeable events such as the purchase of a house or education expenses for children shall not be considered to be the result of an unforeseeable financial emergency. Emergency Benefits shall be paid first from the Participant's In-Service Distribution Account, if any, to the extent the balance of such In-Service Distribution Account is sufficient to meet the emergency. If the distribution exhausts the In-Service Distribution Account, the Retirement Distribution Account may be accessed. With respect to that portion of any Distribution Option Account which is distributed to a Participant as an Emergency Benefit, in accordance with this Article, no further benefit shall be payable to the Participant under this Plan. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, a Participant who receives an Emergency Benefit in any Plan Year shall not be entitled to make any further deferrals for the remainder of such Plan Year. It is intended that the Committee's determination as to whether a Participant has suffered an "unforeseeable financial emergency" shall be made consistent with the requirements under section 457(d) of the Code.

ARTICLE 10 ACCELERATED DISTRIBUTION

Upon the Participant's written election, the Participant may elect to withdraw all or a portion of the Participant's Distribution Option Account at any time prior to the time such Distribution Option Account otherwise becomes payable under the Plan, provided the conditions specified in Section 10.3, Section 10.4, and Section 10.5 are satisfied.

10.2    Acceleration of Periodic Distributions. Upon the Participant's written election, the Participant or Participant's Beneficiary who is receiving installment payments under the Plan may elect to have all or a percentage of the remaining installments distributed in the form of an immediately payable lump sum, provided the condition specified in Section 10.3 is satisfied.

10.3    Forfeiture Penalty. In the event of a withdrawal pursuant to Section 10.1, or an accelerated distribution pursuant to Section 10.2, the Participant shall forfeit from his Distribution Option Account from which the withdrawal is made an amount equal to 10% of the amount of the withdrawal or accelerated distribution, as the case may be. The forfeited amount shall be deducted from the applicable Distribution Option Account prior to giving effect to the requested withdrawal or acceleration. The Participant and the Participant's Beneficiary shall not have any

right or claim to the forfeited amount, and the Company shall have no obligation whatsoever to the Participant, the Participant's Beneficiary or any other person with regard to the forfeited amount.

Any lump-sum benefit payable in accordance with this paragraph shall be paid in, but not later than January 31 of, the Plan Year following the Plan Year in which such closing occurs, in an amount equal to the value of such Retirement Distribution Account and In-Service Distribution Account as of the Valuation Date.

ARTICLE 12 MISCELLANEOUS
12.1    Amendment and Termination. The Plan may be amended, suspended, discontinued or terminated at any time by the Board; provided, however, that no such amendment, suspension, discontinuance or termination shall reduce or in any manner adversely affect the rights of any Participant with respect to benefits that are payable or may become payable under the Plan based upon the balance of the Participant's Retirement Account and In-Service Distribution Account as of the effective date of such amendment, suspension, discontinuance or termination.


12.2    Claims Procedure.

a.    Claim

A person who believes that he is being denied a benefit to which he is entitled under the Plan (hereinafter referred to as a "Claimant") may file a written request for such benefit with the Committee, setting forth the claim.

b.    Claim Decision
Upon receipt of a claim, the Committee shall advise the Claimant that a reply will be forthcoming within ninety (90) days and shall, in fact, deliver such reply within such period.
AMETEK, Inc., Deferred Compensation Plan
Appendix A Page A-10

The Committee may, however, extend the reply period for an additional ninety (90) days for reasonable cause.
If the claim is denied in whole or in part, the Claimant shall be provided a written opinion, using language calculated to be understood by the Claimant, setting forth:
(a)    The specific reason or reasons for such denial;

(b)    The specific reference to pertinent provisions of this Agreement on which such denial is based;
(c)    A description of any additional material or information necessary for the Claimant to perfect his claim and an explanation why such material or such information is necessary;

(d)    Appropriate information as to the steps to be taken if the Claimant wishes to submit the claim for review; and
(e)    The time limits for requesting a review under subsection (c) and for review under subsection (d) hereof.

c.    Request for Review
Within sixty (60) days after the receipt by the Claimant of the written opinion described above, the Claimant may request in writing that the Committee review the determination. The Claimant or his duly authorized representative may, but need not, review the pertinent documents and submit issues and comment in writing for consideration by the Committee. If the Claimant does not request a review of the initial determination within such sixty
(60) day period, the Claimant shall be barred and estopped from challenging the determination.

d.    Review of Decision

Within sixty (60) days after the Committee's receipt of a request for review, it will review the initial determination. After considering all materials presented by the Claimant, the Committee will render a written opinion, written in a manner calculated to be understood by the Claimant, setting forth the specific reasons for the decision and containing specific references to the pertinent provisions of this Agreement on which the decision is based. If special circumstances require that the sixty (60) day time period be extended, the Committee will so notify the Claimant and will render the decision as soon as possible, but no later than one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of the request for review.

12.3    Designation of Beneficiary. Each Participant may designate a Beneficiary or Beneficiaries (which Beneficiary may be an entity other than a natural person) to receive any payments which may be made following the Participant's death. Such designation may be changed or canceled at any time without the consent of any such Beneficiary. Any such designation, change or cancellation must be made in a form approved by the Committee and shall not be effective until received by the Committee, or its designee. If no Beneficiary has been named, or the designated Beneficiary or Beneficiaries shall have predeceased the Participant, the Beneficiary shall be the Participant' s estate. If a Participant designates more than one Beneficiary, the interests of such Beneficiaries shall be paid in equal shares, unless the Participant has specifically designated otherwise.

AMETEK, Inc., Deferred Compensation Plan
Appendix A Page A-11

12.4    Limitation of Participant's Right. Nothing in this Plan shall be construed as conferring upon any Participant any right to continue in the employment of the Company, nor shall it interfere with the rights of the Company to terminate the employment of any Participant and/or to take any personnel action affecting any Participant without regard to the effect which such action may have upon such Participant as a recipient or prospective recipient of benefits under the Plan. Any amounts payable hereunder shall not be deemed salary or other compensation to a Participant for the purposes of computing benefits to which the Participant may be entitled under any other arrangement established by the Company for the benefit of its employees.

12.5    No Limitation on Company Actions. Nothing contained in the Plan shall be construed to prevent the Company from taking any action which is deemed by it to be appropriate or in its best interest. No Participant, Beneficiary, or other person shall have any claim against the Company as a result of such action.

12.6    Obligations to Company. If a Participant becomes entitled to a distribution of benefits under the Plan, and if at such time the Participant has outstanding any debt, obligation, or other liability representing an amount owing to the Company under a legally binding written instrument, then the Company may offset such amount owed to it against the amount of benefits otherwise distributable. Such determination shall be made by the Committee.
12.7    Nonalienation of Benefits. Except as expressly provided herein, no Participant or Beneficiary shall have the power or right to transfer (otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution), alienate, or otherwise encumber the Participant's interest under the Plan. The Company's obligations under this Plan are not assignable or transferable except to (a) any corporation or partnership which acquires all or substantially all of the Company's assets or (b) any corporation or partnership into which the Company may be merged or consolidated. The provisions of the Plan shall inure to the benefit of each Participant and the Participant's Beneficiaries, heirs, executors, administrators or successors in interest.

12.8    Withholding Taxes. The Company may make such provisions and take such action as it may deem necessary or appropriate for the withholding of any taxes which the Company is required by any law or regulation of any governmental authority, whether Federal, state or local, to withhold in connection with any benefits under the Plan, including, but not limited to, the withholding of appropriate sums from any amount otherwise payable to the Participant (or his Beneficiary). Each Participant, however, shall be responsible for the payment of all individual tax liabilities relating to any such benefits. Unless otherwise determined by the Company, withholding obligations on Voting Securities shall be settled with Voting Securities, including Voting Securities that are part of a distribution that gives rise to the withholding obligation.
12.9    Unfunded Status of Plan. The Plan is intended to constitute an "unfunded" plan of deferred compensation for Participants. Benefits payable hereunder shall be payable out of the general assets of the Company, and no segregation of any assets whatsoever for such benefits shall be made. Notwithstanding any segregation of assets or transfer to a grantor trust, with respect to any payments not yet made to a Participant, nothing contained herein shall give any such Participant any rights to assets that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company.

12.10    Severability. If any provision of this Plan is held unenforceable, the remainder of the Plan shall continue in full force and effect without regard to such unenforceable provision and shall be applied as though the unenforceable provision were not contained in the Plan.

12.11    Governing Law. The Plan shall be construed in accordance with and governed by
AMETEK, Inc., Deferred Compensation Plan
Appendix A Page A-12

the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without reference to the principles of conflict of laws.
12.12    Headings. Headings are inserted in this Plan for convenience of reference only and are to be ignored in the construction of the provisions of the Plan.
12.13    Gender, Singular and Plural. All pronouns and any variations thereof shall be deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine, or neuter, as the identity of the person or persons may require. As the context may require, the singular may read as the plural and the plural as the singular.

12.14    Notice. Any notice or filing required or permitted to be given to the Committee under the Plan shall be sufficient if in writing and hand delivered, or sent by registered or certified mail, to the Human Resources Department, or to such other entity as the Committee may designate from time to time. Such notice shall be deemed given as to the date of delivery, or, if delivery is made by mail, as of the date shown on the postmark on the receipt for registration or certification.
