NORTHBROOK, IL, April 29, 2026 - IDEX Corporation (NYSE: IEX) today announced its financial results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026.
“We delivered a strong first quarter, with results ahead of our expectations led by continued momentum in our growth platforms within our Health & Science Technologies segment,” said Eric D. Ashleman, IDEX Corporation Chief Executive Officer and President.
“Our first quarter results demonstrate that our strategy is working, with strong execution across the portfolio and increasing traction in the markets where we are choosing to compete. The application of 8020 continues to sharpen our priorities and reallocate resources toward opportunities with stronger growth and margin profiles.”
“Based on this momentum, we are raising our full-year guidance and are encouraged by how our strategies are translating into higher-quality growth. We remain focused on disciplined execution as we continue to build long-term value at IDEX.”
Outlook(1)
•Full year organic sales projected to increase 3% to 4% over the prior year, up from previous guidance of 1% to 2%
•Full year adjusted diluted EPS of $8.35 to $8.55, up from previous guidance of $8.15 to $8.35
•Second quarter 2026 organic sales projected to increase 3% to 4% from the prior year period
•Second quarter 2026 adjusted diluted EPS of $2.07 to $2.12
(1) The Company does not reconcile its forward-looking non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure because the timing and magnitude of certain items, including future foreign exchange impacts, acquisitions, divestitures, restructuring costs, impairments, tax impacts, and other special items, cannot be reasonably estimated at this time without unreasonable effort. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on GAAP results.

(1) 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. There were no fair value inventory step-up charges recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2026 or March 31, 2025. | |||||||||||||||||
•Net sales increased as a result of increased organic sales, as well as favorable impacts from foreign currency and contributions from acquisitions. The increase in organic sales was driven by higher volumes in our Health & Science Technologies (“HST”) segment, which were slightly offset by lower volumes in our Fire & Safety/Diversified Products (“FSDP”) and Fluid & Metering Technologies (“FMT”) segments. The increase also reflects positive price across our businesses.
•Gross margin decreased due to unfavorable mix and pressured price/cost, partially offset by net productivity improvements and volume leverage.
•Both Diluted EPS and Adjusted diluted EPS increased, primarily due to improved operational results discussed above. GAAP Diluted EPS also reflects lower restructuring and asset impairment expense, which was excluded from Adjusted diluted EPS.
•Cash flows from operating activities and free cash flow were both slightly down compared to the prior year period. Higher earnings were offset by the timing of customer payments. Free cash flow also reflects higher capital expenditures during the current year period.

Health & Science Technologies Segment
•Net sales for the first quarter 2026 increased 17%.

Net sales also reflect positive price across the segment.
•Adjusted EBITDA margin for the first quarter 2026 increased primarily due to volume leverage and favorable price/cost, partially offset by unfavorable mix and acquisitions.
Fluid & Metering Technologies Segment
•Net sales for the first quarter 2026 increased 4%. Organic sales increased 2% primarily driven by positive price. Higher volumes in our businesses serving municipal water, semiconductor and mining markets were more than offset by lower volumes in our chemical and general industrial businesses.
•Adjusted EBITDA margin for the first quarter 2026 decreased primarily due to unfavorable mix and volume deleverage, mostly mitigated by net productivity improvements.
Fire & Safety/Diversified Products Segment
•Net sales for the first quarter 2026 increased 2%. Organic sales decreased 1%. Higher volumes in our Fire & Safety businesses and positive price were more than offset by lower volumes within our Dispensing businesses driven by timing of projects.
•Adjusted EBITDA margin for the first quarter 2026 increased primarily due to net productivity improvements, partially offset by unfavorable mix and volume deleverage.
Corporate Costs
Corporate costs included in consolidated Adjusted EBITDA were $30.1 million during the first quarter 2026, up slightly from $28.9 million during the same prior year period driven by higher employee-related costs.

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 (U.S. GAAP). The Company supplements certain U.S. 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 U.S. 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 U.S. GAAP. Due to rounding, numbers presented throughout this and other documents may not add up or recalculate precisely.
All table footnotes can be found at the end of this Non-GAAP Measures section. There were no adjustments to U.S. GAAP financial performance metrics other than the items noted below.
•Organic orders and organic sales are calculated as orders and Net sales 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. There were no fair value inventory step-up charges recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2026 or March 31, 2025.
•Adjusted gross margin is calculated as Adjusted gross profit divided by Net sales. There were no fair value inventory step-up charges recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2026 or March 31, 2025.
•Adjusted net income attributable to IDEX is calculated as Net income attributable to IDEX plus Restructuring expenses and asset impairments, plus acquisition-related intangible asset amortization, less gain on legal settlement, 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, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, or consolidated EBITDA, plus Restructuring expenses and asset impairments, less gain on legal settlement.
•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.
