ieepa tariffs regulatory

Measures labeled as IEEPA tariffs are trade restrictions or charges imposed under the U.S. International Emergency Economic Powers Act, a law that lets the government respond to national emergencies with economic tools. For investors, these actions are like suddenly adding a toll to certain imports, exports or transactions: they can raise costs, disrupt supply chains, limit market access, and change a company’s revenue or risk profile overnight.

non-gaap financial

Non-GAAP refers to financial measures that companies use to show their earnings or performance without including certain expenses or income that are often added back to give a different picture. It matters because it can make a company's results look better or more favorable, but it may also hide important costs, so investors need to look at both GAAP (official rules) and non-GAAP numbers to get a full understanding.

The guidance also assumes tariff rates in place as of April 2026.

²Adjusted operating margin is calculated by dividing adjusted operating income by sales. Adjusted operating income is derived by excluding the adjusted items.

³Adjusted earnings per share (EPS) excludes realignment expenses, the impact from other specific discrete and below-the-line foreign currency effects and utilizes the then-applicable FX rates and fully diluted shares. Adjusted full-year 2026 EPS guidance excludes certain other discrete items which may arise during the year.

⁴Organic is defined as the change in sales, as defined by U.S. GAAP, excluding the impacts of currency translation and acquisitions and divestitures. The impact of currency translation is calculated by translating current year results on a monthly basis at prior year exchange rates for the same period.

All forward-looking statements included in this news release are based on information available to us on the date hereof, and we assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statement.

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). However, management believes that non-GAAP financial measures which exclude certain non-recurring items present additional useful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods, providing investors with a clearer view of the underlying trends of the business. Management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating, planning and compensation decisions and in evaluating the Company's performance. Non-GAAP financial measures, which may be inconsistent with similarly captioned measures presented by other companies, should be viewed in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
