Ecolab Inc. furnished supplemental segment data that reorganizes how it reports its business and shows results at fixed currency exchange rates.

The company provided unaudited tables for 2025 and 2024, and for each quarter of 2025, that restate net sales, costs and operating income using 2026 fixed exchange rates.
