Our unique ownership mindset has fueled employee sense of belonging and has led to numerous accolades, including recognition as a great place to work across several countries, notable employee learning and development programs, and several awards for our industry-leading sustainability program. We are living out the Company’s purpose of making life better for our people and our planet.”

Fourth Quarter 2023 Segment Review

(All comparisons against the fourth quarter of 2022 unless otherwise noted.)

Industrial Technologies and Services Segment: broad range of compressor, vacuum, blower, and air treatment solutions as well as industrial technologies including power tools and lifting equipment

• Reported Orders of $1,377 million, up 16%, or up 5% organic
• Reported Revenues of $1,509 million, up 15%, or up 5% organic²
• Reported Segment Adjusted EBITDA of $453 million, up 26% with an incremental margin of 48%
• Reported Segment Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 30.0%, up 260 basis points, fueled by the use of IRX to drive strong operational execution
• Core industrial end markets saw continued strong organic demand with orders up 5%, including strong positive momentum across Americas and Europe. Excluding FX, orders for total compressor offerings, which represent approximately 65% of the total segment, were up low double digits.

Precision and Science Technologies Segment: highly specialized fluid management solutions including precision liquid and gas pumps and niche compression technologies

• Reported Orders of $293 million, flat, or down 2% organic
• Reported Revenues of $313 million, up 1%, or flat organic²
• Reported Segment Adjusted EBITDA of $94 million, up 2% with an incremental margin of 33%
• Reported Segment Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 30.1%, flat, driven primarily by improvement in pricing as compared to cost as well as synergy delivery in recently completed M&A offsetting expected margin headwinds from volume declines in the life sciences businesses
• Order declines were primarily driven by the life sciences businesses, which continue to experience softness in the oxygen concentration and biopharma end markets. In the industrial businesses, short cycle orders were positive both sequentially and year over year driven by demand generation activities, use of IRX, and continued lead time reductions.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

Ingersoll Rand remains in a strong financial position with ample liquidity of $3.6 billion. On a reported basis, the Company generated $581 million of cash flow from operating activities from continuing operations and invested $30 million in capital expenditures, resulting in free cash flow from continuing operations² of $552 million, compared to cash flow from operating activities from continuing operations of $355 million and free cash flow from continuing operations² of $321 million in the prior year period. Net debt to Adjusted EBITDA² leverage was 0.6x for the fourth quarter, which was an improvement of 0.2x as compared to the prior year.

Consistent with our comprehensive capital allocation strategy led by M&A, in the fourth quarter Ingersoll Rand deployed $39 million to M&A. In addition, the Company recently closed on the acquisition of Friulair S.r.l which is recognized globally for its design and production of dryers, filters, aftercoolers, and accessories for the treatment of compressed air as well as its chiller product line. The Company also returned $138 million to shareholders through $130 million in share repurchases and $8 million through its quarterly dividend payment in the fourth quarter.

2024 Guidance³⁴

Ingersoll Rand is establishing full-year 2024 guidance based on expected continued strong demand trends and operational execution in 2024:

Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures related to full-year 2024 guidance have not been provided due to the unreasonable efforts it would take to provide such reconciliations due to the high variability, complexity and uncertainty with respect to forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations, including net income (loss) and adjustments that could be made for acquisitions-related expenses, restructuring and other business transformation costs, gains or losses on foreign currency exchange and the timing and magnitude of other amounts in the reconciliation of historic numbers. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could have a potentially unpredictable, and potentially significant, impact on our future GAAP financial results.

Non-U.S. GAAP Measures of Financial Performance

In addition to consolidated GAAP financial measures, Ingersoll Rand reviews various non-GAAP financial measures, including “Organic Revenue Growth,” “Adjusted EBITDA,” “Adjusted Net Income,” “Adjusted Diluted EPS” and “Free Cash Flow.”

Ingersoll Rand believes Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Diluted EPS are helpful supplemental measures to assist management and investors in evaluating the Company’s operating results as they exclude certain items that are unusual in nature or whose fluctuation from period to period do not necessarily correspond to changes in the operations of Ingersoll Rand’s business. Ingersoll Rand believes Organic Revenue Growth is a helpful supplemental measure to assist management and investors in evaluating the Company’s operating results as it excludes the impact of foreign currency and acquisitions on revenue growth. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and certain non-cash, non-recurring and other adjustment items. Adjusted Net Income is defined as net income including interest, depreciation and amortization of non-acquisition related intangible assets and excluding other items used to calculate Adjusted EBITDA and further adjusted for the tax effect of these exclusions. Organic Revenue Growth is defined as As Reported Revenue growth less the impacts of Foreign Currency and Acquisitions. Ingersoll Rand believes that the adjustments applied in presenting Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income are appropriate to provide additional information to investors about certain material non-cash items and about non-recurring items that the Company does not expect to continue at the same level in the future. Adjusted Diluted EPS is defined as Adjusted Net Income divided by Adjusted Diluted Average Shares Outstanding. Incrementals/Decrementals are defined as the change in Adjusted EBITDA versus the prior year period divided by the change in revenue versus the prior year period.

Ingersoll Rand uses Free Cash Flow to review the liquidity of its operations. Ingersoll Rand measures Free Cash Flow as cash flows from operating activities less capital expenditures. Ingersoll Rand believes Free Cash Flow is a useful supplemental financial measures for management and investors in assessing the Company’s ability to pursue business opportunities and investments and to service its debt. Free Cash Flow is not a measure of our liquidity under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities.

Management and Ingersoll Rand’s board of directors regularly use these measures as tools in evaluating the Company’s operating and financial performance and in establishing discretionary annual compensation. Such measures are provided in addition to, and should not be considered to be a substitute for, or superior to, the comparable measures under GAAP. In addition, Ingersoll Rand believes that Organic Revenue Growth, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Incrementals/Decrementals and Free Cash Flow are frequently used by investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of issuers, many of which also present Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, and Free Cash Flow when reporting their results in an effort to facilitate an understanding of their operating and financial results and liquidity.

Organic Revenue Growth, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS and Free Cash Flow should not be considered as alternatives to revenue growth, net income, diluted earnings per share or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, or as alternatives to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. Organic Revenue Growth, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS and Free Cash Flow have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider such measures either in isolation or as substitutes for analyzing Ingersoll Rand’s results as reported under GAAP.

Reconciliations of Organic Revenue Growth, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS and Free Cash Flow to their most comparable U.S. GAAP financial metrics for historical periods are presented in the tables below.

Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures related to full year 2024 guidance have not been provided due to the unreasonable efforts it would take to provide such reconciliations due to the high variability, complexity and uncertainty with respect to forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations, including net income (loss) and adjustments that could be made for acquisitions-related expenses, restructuring and other business transformation costs, gains or losses on foreign currency exchange and the timing and magnitude of other amounts in the reconciliation of historic numbers. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could have a potentially unpredictable, and potentially significant, impact on our future GAAP financial results.
