ITT Reports 2025 Second Quarter Earnings Per Share (EPS) of $1.52, Adjusted EPS of $1.64; Raising Full Year Revenue and EPS Guidance

• 16% orders growth (13% organic), driven by pump projects, aerospace and defense awards and rail, surpassing $1.0 billion in orders for the second consecutive quarter
• 7% revenue growth (4% organic), driven by pump projects, aerospace and industrial connectors, share gains in automotive and rail and pricing
• 18.0% operating margin (18.4% adjusted), driven by productivity, higher volumes and pricing
• Net cash from operating activities of $154 million, up 36% sequentially; free cash flow of $137 million, up 79% sequentially

July 31, 2025-- ITT Inc. (NYSE:ITT) today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 28, 2025. The company reported revenue of $972 million, with growth of 7% (4% organic) versus prior year, driven by pump project shipments in Industrial Process (IP), aerospace and industrial connectors demand and pricing actions in Connect & Control Technologies (CCT) and share gains in automotive and rail in Motion Technologies (MT).

Second quarter operating income of $175 million increased 10% versus prior year on both a GAAP and adjusted basis due to benefits from productivity savings, pricing actions and acquisitions, partially offset by higher material and labor costs. Operating income margin increased 40 basis points to 18.0% versus prior year while adjusted operating margin of 18.4% increased by 30 basis points.

EPS for the second quarter of $1.52 increased 5% versus prior year due to higher operating income and a lower weighted-average share count, partially offset by the loss of earnings from the Wolverine divestiture in 2024, higher tax expense related to special items and higher interest expense. Adjusted EPS of $1.64 increased 10% compared to prior year driven by productivity savings and pricing actions.

Net cash from operating activities for the second quarter of $154 million decreased 3% or $4 million versus prior year primarily driven by timing of vendor payments, offset by higher operating income and customer advance payments. Free cash flow for the quarter of $137 million increased 2% or $3 million versus prior year due to the timing of capital expenditures. On a year to date basis, net cash from operating activities of $267 million was up 24% and free cash flow of $214 million was up 30%.

Management Commentary

"On the heels of our 2025 Capital Markets Day, ITT delivered a strong Q2, well aligned to the pillars of value creation we outlined in May, showcasing our differentiation through execution, innovation and M&A. Once again, we surpassed $1 billion of orders and entered Q3 with nearly $2 billion in backlog. All segments grew revenues organically whilst operating income grew over twice the rate of sales growth. Cash generation accelerated, growing over 30% year-to-date, enabling us to both invest in our businesses and deploy over half a billion dollars of capital, nearly three times our free cash flow. Finally, our acquisitions continue to perform with large awards and strong profitable growth in the energy transition and on coveted defense platforms. All of this resulted in adjusted EPS growth of 10% for the quarter or 16% excluding the Wolverine divestiture. On the strength of this performance and a less volatile outlook, we are raising our revenue and EPS guidance for 2025. We are confident in ITT's ability to deliver on our commitments this year and over the long term," said ITT's Chief Executive Officer and President Luca Savi.

Table 2. Second Quarter Segment Results

Motion Technologies revenue decreased $19 million as higher volumes and favorable foreign currency impacts were more than offset by the Wolverine divestiture. Organic revenue increased $10 million due to strength in Friction original equipment and KONI rail demand. Operating income was flat as benefits from productivity and higher volume were offset by the divestiture of Wolverine and unfavorable foreign currency transaction impacts. Operating margin of 19.5% increased 100 bps compared to prior year.

Industrial Process revenue increased $25 million from strength in pump projects, including Svanehøj, and pricing actions. Operating income increased $10 million primarily due to benefits from pricing, productivity and volume, driving operating margin to 21.5%, an increase of 140 bps compared to prior year.

Connect & Control Technologies revenue increased $60 million primarily driven by the kSARIA acquisition, which closed in September 2024. Organic revenue increased $9 million, primarily due to pricing actions. Operating income increased $10 million primarily due to benefits from pricing and productivity actions and contributions from kSARIA, partially offset by higher labor and material costs and strategic investments. Operating margin of 17.8% decreased 70 bps driven by temporary acquisition amortization.

Quarterly Dividend

The company announced today a quarterly dividend of $0.351 per share on its outstanding common stock. ITT's Board of Directors approved the cash dividend for the third quarter of 2025, which will be payable on Monday, September 29, 2025 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on Tuesday, September 2, 2025.

2025 Guidance

The company is raising its full-year revenue and EPS guidance ranges, reflecting its strong year-to-date performance and a more stable demand outlook for the second half of 2025. For 2025, ITT now expects total revenue growth of 5% to 7% and organic revenue growth of 3% to 5% (unchanged); operating margin of 17.5% to 18.1% and adjusted operating margin of 18.1% to 18.7%, an increase of 30 to 90 bps; EPS of $5.95 to $6.15 and adjusted EPS of $6.35 to $6.55, representing growth of 8% to 11% for the full year; and free cash flow of $450 million to $500 million, representing free cash flow margin of 12% to 13% for full year 2025 (unchanged).

It is not possible, without unreasonable efforts, to estimate the impacts of foreign currency fluctuations, acquisitions and certain other special items that may occur in 2025 as these items are inherently uncertain and difficult to predict. As a result, we are unable to quantify certain amounts that would be included in a reconciliation of organic revenue growth and adjusted segment operating margin to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures without unreasonable efforts and accordingly we have not provided reconciliations for these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures.

• changes in environmental laws or regulations, discovery of previously unknown or more extensive contamination, or the failure of a potentially responsible party to perform;
• failure to comply with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (or other applicable anti-corruption legislation), export controls and trade sanctions; and
• risk of product liability claims and litigation.

More information on factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (particularly under the caption "Risk Factors"), our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and in other documents we file from time to time with the SEC.

Key Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Measures

ITT reviews a variety of key performance indicators including revenue, operating income and margin, earnings per share, order growth, and backlog. In addition, we consider certain measures to be useful to management and investors when evaluating our operating performance for the periods presented. These measures provide a tool for evaluating our ongoing operations and management of assets from period to period. This information can assist investors in assessing our financial performance and measures our ability to generate capital for deployment among competing strategic alternatives and initiatives, including, but not limited to, acquisitions, dividends, and share repurchases. Some of these metrics, however, are not measures of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and should not be considered a substitute for measures determined in accordance with GAAP. We consider the following non-GAAP measures, which may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, to be key performance indicators for purposes of our reconciliation tables.

Organic Revenues and Organic Orders are defined, respectively, as revenue and orders, excluding the impacts of foreign currency fluctuations, acquisitions, and divestitures that may or may not qualify as discontinued operations. Current year activity from acquisitions is excluded for twelve months following the closing date of acquisition. The period-over-period change resulting from foreign currency fluctuations is estimated using a fixed exchange rate for both the current and prior periods. Prior year revenue and orders are adjusted to exclude activity during the comparable period for twelve months post-closing date for divestitures that do not qualify as discontinued operations. We believe that reporting organic revenue and organic orders provide useful information to investors by helping identify underlying trends in our business and facilitating comparisons of our revenue performance with prior and future periods and to our peers.

Adjusted Operating Income is defined as operating income adjusted to exclude special items that include, but are not limited to, restructuring, certain asset impairment charges, certain acquisition- and divestiture-related impacts, and unusual or infrequent operating items. Special items represent charges or credits that impact current results, which management views as unrelated to the Company's ongoing operations and performance. Adjusted Operating Margin is defined as adjusted operating income divided by revenue. We believe these financial measures are useful to investors and other users of our financial statements in evaluating ongoing operating profitability, as well as in evaluating operating performance in relation to our competitors.

Adjusted Income from Continuing Operations is defined as income from continuing operations attributable to ITT Inc. adjusted to exclude special items that include, but are not limited to, restructuring, certain asset impairment charges, certain acquisition- and divestiture-related impacts, income tax settlements or adjustments, and unusual or infrequent items. Special items represent charges or credits, on an after-tax basis, that impact current results, which management views as unrelated to the Company's ongoing operations and performance. The after-tax basis of each special item is determined using the jurisdictional tax rate of where the expense or benefit occurred and the tax deductibility under local tax rules. Adjusted Income from Continuing Operations per Diluted Share (Adjusted EPS) is defined as adjusted income from continuing operations divided by diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. We believe that adjusted income from continuing operations and adjusted EPS are useful to investors and other users of our financial statements in evaluating ongoing operating profitability, as well as in evaluating operating performance in relation to our competitors.

Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. Free Cash Flow Margin is defined as free cash flow divided by revenue. We believe that free cash flow and free cash flow margin provide useful information to investors as it provides insight into a primary cash flow metric used by management to monitor and evaluate cash flows generated by our operations.
