Fortive Corporation reports developments across a diversified industrial technology business focused on essential products, software, and services. Its continuing operations are organized around Intelligent Operating Solutions and Advanced Healthcare Solutions, with brands and platforms tied to maintenance, repair, measurement, condition monitoring, worker safety, compliance, facilities, and healthcare technology markets.
Recurring Fortive news includes quarterly results, earnings calls, share repurchase authorizations, investor conference appearances, and updates following the completed separation of its former Precision Technologies segment into Ralliant. Product news often centers on Fluke offerings such as RotAlign laser shaft alignment systems, SmartTrace underground utility locators, and eMaint CMMS/EAM software with artificial intelligence features for maintenance work.
Fluke (FTV) introduced the ii1050 and ii1030 acoustic imagers for detecting leaks, electrical partial discharge and developing mechanical issues.
The models are approximately 40% smaller than previous-generation models and weigh 1.2 kilograms. Their microphone arrays increase to 202 microphones from 64. Both support the TC03A plug-in thermal camera and include on-device reporting, an integrated flashlight and a 13-megapixel camera. The imagers retain the previous display size while adding an anti-glare screen and an IP54-rated design for environmental protection.
Fluke (FTV) introduced new refrigerated temperature calibration baths designed for laboratories testing the accuracy of temperature sensors. The 7508, 7511 and 7512 provide temperature control as low as –10 °C, with stability as precise as ±0.0007 °C and uniformity as precise as ±0.003 °C.
When paired with the Fluke Calibration 1586A Super-DAQ and MET/TEMP II software, the baths automate temperature sensor calibration and data collection. They support USB and RS-232 connectivity. Fluke says the updated interface, balanced stirring and full fluid drainage are designed to simplify operation and maintenance.
Fortive (FTV) raised its full-year adjusted earnings outlook after reporting third-quarter revenue growth of 7.8% from a year earlier. Revenue from continuing operations reached $1,108 million, with core growth of 7.2%. GAAP diluted earnings per share rose 62.9% to $0.57; adjusted diluted earnings per share increased 13.2% to $0.77. GAAP net earnings margin expanded to 15.6% from 11.4%.
Fortive now expects 2026 adjusted diluted EPS of $3.10 to $3.14, approximately 15% growth at the midpoint. Third-quarter operating cash flow rose 6.3% to $313 million. The company repurchased approximately $300 million of shares during the quarter, bringing repurchases since the launch of new Fortive to approximately $2.3 billion. Intelligent Operating Solutions revenue grew 9.8%, with higher operating profit. Advanced Healthcare Solutions revenue increased 3.7%, but operating profit fell 10.1% and its operating margin narrowed.
Fluke (FTV) introduced three refrigerated temperature calibration baths designed for laboratories conducting high-accuracy testing of temperature sensors. The 7508, 7511 and 7512 models provide temperature control as low as –10 °C, with stated stability as precise as ±0.0007 °C and uniformity as precise as ±0.003 °C.
The company says the baths automate calibration tasks and data collection when paired with its 1586A Super-DAQ and MET/TEMP II software. Applications include calibrating platinum resistance thermometers, thermistors and thermocouples. An optional infrared cavity extends the 7508 model to infrared calibration.
Fluke (FTV) sent its 87V MAX digital multimeter into near-space and reported that it passed every post-flight performance verification test. The instrument reached 20 miles (32,000 metres) above Earth, encountering temperatures near -76°F (-60°C) and atmospheric pressure of 0.87 kPa, less than 1% of sea-level pressure. These conditions were beyond its specified operating environment.
After returning, the instrument underwent testing at Fluke's calibration facility in Norwich, United Kingdom. Checks covered voltage, current, resistance and measurement repeatability, followed by an internal inspection for potential damage or degradation. Fluke described the challenge as a demonstration of its approach to testing beyond requirements, rather than simply meeting minimum standards.
Accruent, an operating company of Fortive (NYSE: FTV), launched Lucernex ATLAS, an AI-powered lease-document processing capability within its Lucernex platform. Developed in partnership with Rocket Club AI, the capability extracts lease terms from documents, including amendments, exhibits and side letters. Reviewers can trace extracted information to source clauses, verify and approve it, and write approved data directly into Lucernex lease records.
The workflow records who extracted and verified the information and what changed. It supports new and existing lease records, including amendment-driven updates. Accruent says the embedded process reduces manual entry and avoids separate export, mapping and import steps, while retaining human review and approval over financially material information.
Fortive (FTV) will present at the Baird 2026 Global Industrial Conference on November 10, 2026, with its CEO and CFO participating.
President and CEO Olumide Soroye and CFO Mark Okerstrom will present at 10:50 a.m. CT (8:50 a.m. PT). Audio will be webcast simultaneously and archived in the Investors section of www.fortive.com.
Fluke Networks (FTV) announced new inspection tips for its FI-3000 FiberInspector Pro to access fiber connections in densely populated data centers. The portfolio includes two extended-reach MMC inspection tips, available in keyed and keyless versions. Fluke says the tips let technicians inspect connectors from the front of populated patch panels, reducing the need to disconnect adjacent fiber assemblies and helping limit disruption during troubleshooting and maintenance.

Fortive (FTV) operating company Accruent published a survey linking campus repair backlogs and facility disruptions to college attendance and recommendation decisions. Among respondents, 58% said they would be less likely to attend or recommend an institution with a significant repair backlog or frequent facility-related disruptions. Campus safety was extremely or very important to 76% when choosing a college for themselves or a loved one.
Only 20% were very confident that most U.S. colleges could respond effectively to emergencies, while 78% considered real-time emergency or disruption updates extremely or very important. Dynata conducted the survey of 1,000 U.S. consumers aged 18 and older on Accruent’s behalf in August 2026.
