Reverse Morris Trust financial
"combine it with Dana in a Reverse Morris Trust (RMT) transaction"
A reverse Morris trust is a tax-efficient deal structure used when a company separates a business unit and immediately combines that unit with another company, allowing the original company’s shareholders to own the merged business. Investors care because it can let companies sell or restructure assets without a big tax bill, affecting shareholder value, ownership percentages, and how quickly the combined business can generate returns—think splitting off a room from your house and having it join a neighbor’s home to avoid a costly property tax.
supply chain finance (SCF) program financial
"a third-party financial institution offers a voluntary supply chain finance (SCF) program"
Accumulated other comprehensive loss financial
"increase of $47 million in funded status and corresponding decrease in Accumulated other comprehensive loss"
Accumulated other comprehensive loss is the running negative total of certain gains and losses that companies record outside their regular profit-and-loss statement, such as changes in the value of some investments, pension adjustments, or currency translation effects. It matters to investors because it reduces shareholders’ equity and reveals economic swings that haven’t affected reported net income yet — like a side ledger showing pending ups and downs that could influence future cash flow or balance-sheet strength.
book-to-bill financial
"Book-to-bill: Average of the ratio of firm customer orders to Net sales"
The book-to-bill ratio compares new orders a company has received (bookings) to the products or services it has invoiced or shipped (billings) over the same period. It matters to investors because a ratio above 1 means demand is outpacing fulfillment and the company may grow revenue or build backlog, while a ratio below 1 suggests slowing demand and possible future revenue weakness — think of it as new customer orders versus what the company actually sold.
nonmarketable investment financial

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Amounts are in millions unless indicated otherwise (per share data assume dilution). Columns and rows may not add and the sum of components may not equal total amounts reported due to rounding.

Note 1.    BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Eaton Corporation plc (Eaton or the Company) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles (US GAAP) for complete financial statements. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) have been made that are necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements for the interim periods.
This Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Eaton’s 2025 Form 10-K. The interim period results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Management has evaluated subsequent events through the date this Form 10-Q was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
During the first quarter of 2026, Eaton re-segmented certain business segments due to a reorganization of the Company's businesses. The new segment is Mobility, which consists of the legacy Vehicle and eMobility segments. Historical segment information has been recast to reflect this change.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (ASU 2024-03). This accounting standard requires disaggregated income statement expense disclosures on an annual and interim basis, including inventory purchases, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization for each income statement line item that contains these expenses. The standard also requires disclosure of total selling expenses on an annual and interim basis, and the definition of those expenses disclosed annually. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and may be applied prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is evaluating the impact of ASU 2024-03 and expects the standard will only impact its disclosures with no material impact to the consolidated financial statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2025-06, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40) Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software (ASU 2025-06). This accounting standard changes when software project costs should be capitalized by removing all references to development stages and requiring costs to be capitalized when (1) the Company authorizes and commits to funding the software project and (2) it is probable the software project will be completed. The standard also requires additional annual and interim disclosures, including the capitalized software balance and accumulated amortization. ASU 2025-06 is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted and may be applied prospectively, retrospectively, or using a modified prospective transition approach. The Company is evaluating the impact of ASU 2025-06 to the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In December 2025, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832) – Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities (ASU 2025-10). This accounting standard requires a government grant to be recognized when (1) it is probable the conditions of the grant will be met and (2) the grant will be received. ASU 2025-10 is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2028, with early adoption permitted and may be applied using a modified prospective approach, modified retrospective approach, or a retrospective approach. The Company is evaluating the impact of ASU 2025-10 to the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Note 2.    ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURE OF BUSINESSES
Acquisition of Fibrebond Corporation
On April 1, 2025, Eaton acquired Fibrebond Corporation (Fibrebond) for $1.43 billion, net of cash acquired. Fibrebond is a U.S. based designer and builder of pre-integrated modular power enclosures for data center, industrial, utility and communications customers. Fibrebond is reported within the Electrical Americas business segment.
The acquisition of Fibrebond has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting which requires the assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their respective fair values on the acquisition date. During the measurement period, which ended in March 2026, opening balance sheet adjustments were made to finalize Eaton's fair value estimates based on the final valuations received, which are summarized in the table below. The measurement period adjustments did not have a material impact to the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Total identifiable net assets878 16 894

Total consideration, net of cash received$1,450 $(15)$1,435 
Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred over the net assets recognized and represents the anticipated synergies of acquiring Fibrebond. Goodwill recognized as a result of the acquisition is deductible for tax purposes. The estimated fair value of the customer relationships, technology, trademarks and backlog intangible assets of $410 million, $171 million, $74 million and $60 million, respectively were determined using either the relief-from-royalty model or the multi-period excess earnings model, which are discounted cash flow models that rely on the Company's estimates. These estimates require judgment of future revenue growth rates, future margins, and the applicable weighted-average cost of capital used to discount those estimated cash flows. The weighted-average cost of capital is an estimate of the overall after-tax rate of return required by equity and debt market holders of a business enterprise. The estimated useful lives for the customer relationships, technology, trademarks and backlog intangible assets were 17 years, 9 years, 17 years and 2 years, respectively. See Note 6 for additional information about goodwill.
As part of the acquisition, Eaton assumed $240 million of employee transaction and retention awards. Awards vest in six equal annual installments starting in the second quarter of 2025, subject to continued employment with Eaton. Forfeited employee awards are paid to former Fibrebond shareholders annually. Eaton recognizes compensation expense for the awards over the requisite service period and any employee forfeitures owed to former Fibrebond shareholders are expensed immediately in Other expense (income) - net. Expense related to the awards is reported in the Consolidated Statements of Income as follows:

Acquisition of Resilient Power Systems Inc.
On August 6, 2025, Eaton acquired Resilient Power Systems Inc. (Resilient), a leading North American developer and manufacturer of innovative energy solutions, including solid-state transformer-based technology. Resilient was acquired for $86 million, including $55 million of cash paid at closing and an initial estimate of $31 million for the fair value of contingent future consideration based on 2025 through 2028 revenue performance and achievement of technology-based milestones. The fair value of contingent consideration liabilities is estimated by discounting contingent payments expected to be made, and may increase or decrease based on changes in milestone achievements and discount rates, with a maximum possible undiscounted value of $45 million. As of June 30, 2026, the fair value of the contingent future payments is $32 million. Resilient is reported within the Electrical Americas business segment.
As part of the acquisition, Eaton assumed employee incentives with a maximum payout of $50 million contingent upon achievement of the same revenue performance and technology-based milestones, as well as continued employment with Eaton. The incentives will be paid over three years, starting in 2026 and concluding in 2028. As of June 30, 2026, the Company expects to pay $50 million of employee incentives based on the estimated probability of the milestones being achieved. Compensation expense will be recognized over the requisite service period. During the second quarter and the first six months of 2026, the Company recognized compensation expense of $6 million and $16 million, respectively, which was included in Selling and administrative expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Investment in SPAN
On January 15, 2026, Eaton invested $75 million in SPAN for a stake of approximately 7 percent. SPAN is a manufacturer of smart panel and power controls technology to further enable affordable home electrification at scale. Eaton accounts for this nonmarketable investment at cost, less impairment, adjusted for observable price changes. The investment is included in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Acquisition of Ultra PCS Limited
On January 23, 2026, Eaton acquired Ultra PCS Limited (Ultra PCS) for $1.53 billion, net of cash acquired. Ultra PCS is headquartered in the U.K. with operations in the U.K. and the U.S. Ultra PCS produces electronic controls, sensing, stores ejection and data processing solutions, enabling mission success for global aerospace customers in the air and on the ground. Ultra PCS is reported within the Aerospace business segment.
The acquisition of Ultra PCS has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting which requires the assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their respective fair values on the acquisition date, as well as measurement period adjustments recorded as of June 30, 2026. The table below summarizes the preliminary estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the acquisition date. These preliminary estimates will continue to be revised during the measurement period as third-party valuations are updated and finalized, further information becomes available and additional analyses are performed. These differences could have a material impact on Eaton's preliminary purchase price allocation. The current measurement period adjustments did not have a material impact to the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred over the net assets recognized and represents the anticipated synergies of acquiring Ultra PCS. As a result of the acquisition, goodwill of $96 million recognized in the United States is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. Other intangible assets of $791 million include customer relationships, technology, trademarks and backlog. Given the timing of the acquisition, Eaton used a preliminary third-party valuation to determine the fair values for intangible assets and will continue to revise during the measurement period. See Note 6 for additional information about goodwill.
The Company incurred $17 million of acquisition related transaction costs during the first six months of 2026 for Ultra PCS that were included in Selling and administrative expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Eaton's 2026 condensed consolidated financial statements include Ultra PCS results of operations, including segment operating profit of $31 million on sales of $111 million, from the date of acquisition through June 30, 2026.
Acquisition of Boyd Thermal
On March 12, 2026, Eaton acquired Boyd Thermal for $9.55 billion, net of cash acquired. Boyd Thermal is a U.S. based global leader in thermal components, systems, and ruggedized solutions for data center, aerospace and other end-markets. Boyd Thermal employs more than 6,000 people with manufacturing sites across North America, Asia, and Europe. Boyd Thermal is reported within the Electrical Global business segment.
The acquisition of Boyd Thermal has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting which requires the assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their respective fair values on the acquisition date, as well as measurement period adjustments recorded as of June 30, 2026. The table below summarizes the preliminary estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the acquisition date. These preliminary estimates will continue to be revised during the measurement period as third-party valuations are updated and finalized, further information becomes available and additional analyses are performed. These differences could have a material impact on Eaton's preliminary purchase price allocation. The current measurement period adjustments did not have a material impact to the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Goodwill recognized as a result of the acquisition is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. Other intangible assets of $7,190 million include customer relationships, technology and backlog. Given the timing of the acquisition, Eaton used a preliminary third-party valuation to determine the fair values for intangible assets and will continue to revise during the measurement period. See Note 6 for additional information about goodwill.
The Company incurred $1 million and $36 million of acquisition related transaction costs during the second quarter and first six months of 2026, respectively, for Boyd Thermal that were included in Selling and administrative expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Planned Separation of Mobility Business
On January 26, 2026, Eaton announced its intention to separate its Mobility business segment from the rest of Eaton via a spin-off. On June 10, 2026, Eaton entered into definitive agreements with Dana Incorporated (Dana), whereby Eaton will separate the Mobility business and combine it with Dana in a Reverse Morris Trust (RMT) transaction (the separation and merger with and into Dana described below collectively referred to as the Transaction). As part of the Transaction, Eaton will distribute the Mobility business (other than certain assets and liabilities that will be sold directly to Dana in a concurrent asset sale) to Eaton shareholders through an exchange offer (split-off), in which Eaton shareholders will have the opportunity to tender their Eaton shares in exchange for shares of Mobility (USA) Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Eaton (SpinCo), followed, if necessary, by a clean-up pro rata distribution. Immediately thereafter, a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of SpinCo will merge with and into Dana, with Dana surviving as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of SpinCo. Following completion of the Transaction, Eaton shareholders are expected to own at least 50.1% of the combined company's outstanding shares. Eaton will also receive a cash distribution of approximately $1.1 billion prior to completion of the Transaction, subject to a customary cash and indebtedness adjustment and tax payments to various global jurisdictions and transaction related charges. Eaton expects to use the cash distribution consistent with its capital allocation framework, including repayment of outstanding indebtedness.
The RMT transaction is intended to be tax-free for U.S. federal income tax purposes to Eaton and Eaton’s shareholders and is expected to close in the first quarter of 2027, subject to Dana stockholder approval, regulatory approvals, and customary closing conditions. Until the Transaction closes, the Mobility business segment will continue to operate as a business segment of Eaton and its financial results reported in Eaton’s continuing operations. In the event the Transaction is not consummated, Eaton intends to separate its Mobility business segment in a spin-off.

Note 3.    REVENUE RECOGNITION
Sales are recognized when obligations under the terms of the contract are satisfied and control of promised goods or services have transferred to our customers. Control is transferred when the customer has the ability to direct the use of and obtain benefits from the goods or services. Sales are measured at the amount of consideration the Company expects to be paid in exchange for these products or services.
The following table provides disaggregated sales by lines of businesses, geographic destination, market channel or end market, as applicable, for the Company's business segments:

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, unbilled receivables (revenue recognized exceeds amount billed to the customer), and deferred revenue (advance payments and billings in excess of revenue recognized). Accounts receivable from customers were $6,040 million and $4,682 million at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Amounts are billed as work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms, either at periodic intervals or upon achievement of contractual milestones. These assets and liabilities are reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period. Unbilled receivables were $1,015 million and $759 million at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, and are recorded in Prepaid expenses and other current assets. The increase in unbilled receivables reflects higher revenue recognized and not yet billed from increased business activity in 2026, higher revenue recognized over time in 2026, and unbilled receivables associated with the Ultra PCS acquisition.

A significant portion of open orders placed with Eaton are by customers of electrical products and electrical system and services, original equipment manufacturers or distributors. These open orders are not considered firm as they have been historically subject to releases by customers. In measuring backlog of unsatisfied or partially satisfied obligations, only the amount of orders to which customers are firmly committed are included. Using this criterion, total backlog at June 30, 2026 was approximately $24.1 billion. At June 30, 2026, approximately 71% of this backlog is targeted for delivery to customers in the next twelve months and the rest thereafter.

Receivables are exposed to credit risk based on the customers’ ability to pay which is influenced by, among other factors, their financial liquidity position. Eaton’s receivables are generally short-term in nature with a majority outstanding less than 90 days.
Eaton performs ongoing credit evaluation of its customers and maintains sufficient allowances for potential credit losses. The Company evaluates the collectability of its receivables based on the length of time the receivable is past due, and any anticipated future write-off based on historic experience adjusted for current market conditions. The Company's global credit department performs the credit evaluation and monitoring process to estimate and manage credit risk. The process includes an evaluation of credit losses for both the overall segment receivable and specific customer balances. The process also includes review of customer financial information and credit ratings, approval and monitoring of customer credit limits, and an assessment of current market conditions. The Company may also require prepayment from customers to mitigate credit risk. Receivable balances are written off against an allowance for credit losses after a final determination of collectability has been made.
Accounts receivable are net of an allowance for credit losses of $60 million and $57 million at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The change in the allowance for credit losses includes expense and net write-offs, none of which are significant.

Total$15,769 $4,582 $(121)$20,229 
During the first quarter of 2026, Eaton re-segmented certain business segments due to a reorganization of the Company's businesses. The new segment is Mobility, which consists of the legacy Vehicle and eMobility segments. The Company's reporting units are equivalent to the business segments, except for the Aerospace segment which continues to have two reporting units.
As a result of the re-segmentation, the goodwill of the legacy Vehicle and eMobility reporting units was combined and assigned to the new Mobility reporting unit. The re-segmentation did not result in a reallocation of goodwill using a relative fair value methodology, as the re-segmentation resulted in a combination of previously existing reporting units and did not change the composition of other reporting units.
The 2026 additions to goodwill relate primarily to the anticipated synergies of acquiring Boyd Thermal and Ultra PCS. The allocation of the purchase price from the Ultra PCS and Boyd Thermal acquisitions are preliminary and will be completed during the measurement period.

Note 7.    SUPPLY CHAIN FINANCE PROGRAM
The Company negotiates payment terms directly with its suppliers for the purchase of goods and services. In addition, a third-party financial institution offers a voluntary supply chain finance (SCF) program that enables certain of the Company’s suppliers, at the supplier’s sole discretion, to sell receivables due from the Company to the financial institution on terms directly negotiated with the financial institution. If a supplier elects to participate in the SCF program, the supplier decides which invoices are sold to the financial institution and the Company has no economic interest in a supplier’s decision to sell an invoice. Payments by the Company to participating suppliers are paid to the financial institution on the invoice due date, regardless of whether an individual invoice is sold by the supplier to the financial institution. The amounts due to the financial institution for suppliers that participate in the SCF program are included in Accounts payable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, and the associated payments are included in operating activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
The changes in SCF obligations are as follows:

During 2020, the Company announced it was freezing its United States pension plans for its non-union employees. The freeze was effective January 1, 2021 for non-union U.S. employees whose retirement benefit was determined under a cash balance formula and was effective January 1, 2026 for non-union U.S. employees whose retirement benefit is determined under a final average pay formula.
During the second quarter and first six months of 2026, the Company recognized settlement losses from lump sum distributions of $15 million and $28 million, respectively. During the second quarter and first six months of 2025, the Company recognized settlement losses from lump sum distributions of $12 million and $23 million, respectively. In the second quarter of 2026, the Company remeasured certain pension plans as a result of lump-sum distributions exceeding or expected to exceed the sum of service and interest costs for the year. These remeasurements resulted in an increase of $47 million in funded status and corresponding decrease in Accumulated other comprehensive loss in the second quarter of 2026.

Note 10.    LEGAL CONTINGENCIES
Eaton is subject to a broad range of claims, administrative proceedings, and legal proceedings, including, but not limited to, claims for punitive damages, penalties, and interest, in a variety of matters, including, but not limited to, contract, indemnity, tax, patent infringement, intellectual property, personal injury, commercial, warranty, product liability, environmental, antitrust and trade regulation, class action, and labor and employment matters. Eaton is also subject to legal claims from historic products which may have contained asbestos. Insurance may cover some of the costs associated with claims and proceedings involving Eaton. Although it is not possible to predict with certainty the outcome or cost of these matters, the Company believes they will not have a material adverse effect on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 11.    INCOME TAXES
The effective income tax rate for the second quarter and first six months of 2026 was expense of 28.1% and 24.9%, respectively, compared to expense of 17.2% and 17.6% for the second quarter and first six months of 2025. The increase in the effective tax rate in the second quarter and first six months of 2026 was primarily due to greater levels of income in higher tax jurisdictions and withholding tax expense related to funding the acquisition of Boyd Thermal.

Note 13.     FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair value is measured based on an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to satisfy a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, a fair value hierarchy is established, which categorizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: (Level 1) observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; (Level 2) inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and (Level 3) unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.
A summary of financial instruments and contingent consideration recognized at fair value, and the fair value measurements used, is as follows:

Eaton values its financial instruments using an industry standard market approach, in which prices and other relevant information is generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities.
Other Fair Value Measurements
Long-term debt and the current portion of long-term debt had a carrying value of $18,520 million and fair value of $18,013 million at June 30, 2026 compared to $9,894 million and $9,587 million, respectively, at December 31, 2025. The fair value of Eaton's debt instruments was estimated using prevailing market interest rates on debt with similar creditworthiness, terms and maturities and is considered a Level 2 fair value measurement.

Note 14.    RESTRUCTURING CHARGES
During the first quarter of 2024, Eaton implemented a multi-year restructuring program to accelerate opportunities to optimize its operations and global support structure. These actions will better align the Company's functions to support anticipated growth and drive greater effectiveness throughout the Company. Since the inception of the program, the Company has incurred charges of $397 million. This restructuring program is expected to be completed in 2026 and is expected to incur additional expenses related to workforce reductions of $60 million and plant closing and other costs of $18 million, resulting in total estimated charges of $475 million for the entire program.

Note 15.    BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated on a regular basis by the chief operating decision maker, or decision making group, in deciding how to allocate resources to an individual segment and in assessing performance. The Company's chief operating decision maker is the chief executive officer. Operating profit includes the operating profit from intersegment sales. For additional information regarding Eaton's business segments, see Note 18 to the consolidated financial statements contained in the 2025 Form 10-K.
The chief operating decision maker uses segment operating profit as an input to assess segment performance and determine appropriate resource allocations, including capital, financial, and employee resources. Segment operating profit results are regularly evaluated versus annual profit plan, forecast and/or prior year.
Other segment items are primarily comprised of Cost of products sold, Selling and administrative expense, Research and development expense, depreciation of property, plant and equipment, and certain items included in Other expense (income) – net on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company's chief operating decision maker manages these items on a consolidated basis.
During the first quarter of 2026, Eaton re-segmented certain business segments due to a reorganization of the Company's businesses. The new segment is Mobility, which includes the legacy Vehicle and eMobility segments. Historical segment information has been recast to reflect this change. Eaton's segments as of June 30, 2026 are as follows:
Electrical Americas and Electrical Global
The Electrical Americas segment consists of electrical components, industrial components, power distribution and assemblies, residential products, single phase power quality and connectivity, three phase power quality, wiring devices, circuit protection, utility power distribution, power reliability equipment, and services that are primarily produced and sold in North and South America. The Electrical Global segment consists of electrical components, industrial components, power distribution and assemblies, single phase and three phase power quality, and services that are primarily produced and sold outside of North and South America; as well as hazardous duty electrical equipment, cooling products, emergency lighting, fire detection, intrinsically safe explosion-proof instrumentation, and structural support systems that are produced and sold globally. The principal markets for these segments are commercial & institutional, data centers and distributed IT, industrial, utilities, residential, and machinery OEMs. These products are used wherever there is a demand for electrical power in data centers, utilities, industrial and energy facilities, commercial buildings, apartment and office buildings, hospitals, factories, and residencies. The segments share certain common global customers, but a large number of customers are located regionally. Sales are made through distributors, resellers, and manufacturers’ representatives, as well as directly to original equipment manufacturers, utilities, and certain other end users.
Aerospace
The Aerospace segment is a leading global supplier of aerospace fuel, hydraulics, and pneumatic systems for commercial and military use, as well as filtration systems for industrial applications.

During the first quarter of 2026, Eaton re-segmented certain business segments due to a reorganization of the Company's businesses. The new segment is Mobility, which consists of the legacy Vehicle and eMobility segments. Historical segment information has been recast to reflect this change.
Portfolio Changes
The Company continues to actively manage its portfolio of businesses to deliver on its strategic objectives. The Company is focused on deploying its capital toward businesses that provide opportunities for above-market growth and strong returns, and that align with secular trends and its power management strategies. During 2025 and 2026, Eaton completed several transactions to strengthen its portfolio.

On January 26, 2026, Eaton announced its intention to separate its Mobility business segment from the rest of Eaton via a spin-off. On June 10, 2026, Eaton entered into definitive agreements with Dana Incorporated (Dana), whereby Eaton will separate the Mobility business and combine it with Dana in a Reverse Morris Trust (RMT) transaction (the separation and merger with and into Dana described below collectively referred to as the Transaction). As part of the Transaction, Eaton will distribute the Mobility business (other than certain assets and liabilities that will be sold directly to Dana in a concurrent asset sale) to Eaton shareholders through an exchange offer (split-off), in which Eaton shareholders will have the opportunity to tender their Eaton shares in exchange for shares of Mobility (USA) Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Eaton (SpinCo), followed, if necessary, by a clean-up pro rata distribution. Immediately thereafter, a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of SpinCo will merge with and into Dana, with Dana surviving as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of SpinCo. Following completion of the Transaction, Eaton shareholders are expected to own at least 50.1% of the combined company's outstanding shares. Eaton will also receive a cash distribution of approximately $1.1 billion prior to completion of the Transaction, subject to a customary cash and indebtedness adjustment and tax payments to various global jurisdictions and transaction related charges. Eaton expects to use the cash distribution consistent with its capital allocation framework, including repayment of outstanding indebtedness.
The RMT transaction is intended to be tax-free for U.S. federal income tax purposes to Eaton and Eaton’s shareholders and is expected to close in the first quarter of 2027, subject to Dana stockholder approval, regulatory approvals, and customary closing conditions. Until the Transaction closes, the Mobility business segment will continue to operate as a business segment of Eaton and its financial results reported in Eaton’s continuing operations. In the event the Transaction is not consummated, Eaton intends to separate its Mobility business segment in a spin-off.
Additional information related to acquisitions of businesses is presented in Note 2.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The following discussion of Consolidated Financial Results includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. These financial measures include adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per ordinary share, each of which differs from the most directly comparable measure calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). A reconciliation of adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per ordinary share to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is included in the Consolidated Financial Results table below. Management believes that these financial measures are useful to investors because they provide additional meaningful financial information that should be considered when assessing our business performance and trends, and they allow investors to more easily compare Eaton’s financial performance period to period. Management uses this information in monitoring and evaluating the on-going performance of Eaton.
Acquisition and Divestiture Charges
Eaton incurs integration charges and transaction costs to acquire and integrate businesses, and transaction, separation and other costs to divest and exit businesses. Eaton also recognizes gains and losses on the sale of businesses. A summary of these Corporate items is as follows:

Acquisition integration, divestiture charges and transaction costs in 2026 and 2025 are primarily related to the following:

The acquisitions of Fibrebond Corporation, Resilient Power Systems Inc., Ultra PCS Limited, Boyd Thermal, and Exertherm, the anticipated divestiture of the Mobility business, transactions completed prior to 2023, and other charges to acquire and exit businesses.
Employee transaction and retention award compensation expense related to the acquisition of Fibrebond of $27 million and $39 million in the second quarter and the first six months of 2026, respectively, and $47 million in the second quarter and the first six months of 2025.
Employee incentive compensation expense related to the acquisition of Resilient of $6 million and $16 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2026, respectively.
Charges in 2026 and 2025 were included in Cost of products sold, Selling and administrative expense, Research and development expense, or Other expense (income) - net. In Business Segment Information in Note 15, the charges were included in Other expense - net.
Additionally, during the second quarter and the first six months of 2026, Eaton incurred $52 million of withholding taxes related to funding the acquisition of Boyd Thermal, which are included in Income tax expense (benefit) in the table above.
Restructuring Program
During the first quarter of 2024, Eaton implemented a multi-year restructuring program to accelerate opportunities to optimize its operations and global support structure. These actions will better align the Company's functions to support anticipated growth and drive greater effectiveness throughout the Company. Since the inception of the program, the Company has incurred charges of $397 million. This restructuring program is expected to be completed in 2026 and is expected to incur additional expenses related to workforce reductions of $60 million and plant closing and other costs of $18 million, resulting in total estimated charges of $475 million for the entire program. The Company expects mature year benefits of $375 million when the multi-year program is fully implemented.
Additional information related to these restructuring programs is presented in Note 14.

Material factors affecting this increase were a 170 basis point increase from higher sales, a 130 basis point increase from the sale of a facility in the first quarter of 2026, a 130 basis point increase from favorable mix, and a 30 basis point increase from the acquisition of Ultra PCS, partially offset by a 310 basis point decline from higher commodity and wage inflation.

LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES, AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
Liquidity and Financial Condition
Eaton’s objective is to finance its business through operating cash flow and an appropriate mix of equity and long-term and short-term debt. By diversifying its debt maturity structure, Eaton reduces liquidity risk.
On February 6, 2026, Eaton Corporation, a subsidiary of Eaton, exercised a $1,000 million upsize of the existing $3,000 million five-year revolving credit agreement, increasing the total facility size to $4,000 million. The facility’s maturity date remains unchanged at September 27, 2030. The revolving credit facility is used to support commercial paper borrowings and is fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Eaton and certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries on an unsubordinated, unsecured basis. There were no borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility at June 30, 2026. Also on February 6, 2026 the Company increased its commercial paper program from $3,000 million to $4,000 million. The Company maintains access to the commercial paper markets through its $4,000 million commercial paper program, of which $2,088 million was outstanding on June 30, 2026, used primarily to manage fluctuations in working capital and to partially fund acquisitions closed during 2026.
On March 6, 2026, Eaton Corporation, a subsidiary of Eaton, issued notes (2026 U.S. Notes) with an aggregate face amount of $8,500 million. The 2026 U.S. Notes are comprised of six tranches: 3.85% notes due 2028 in the amount of $1,500 million; 3.95% notes due 2029 in the amount of $1,500 million; 4.20% notes due 2031 in the amount of $1,500 million; 4.50% notes due 2033 in the amount of $1,000 million; 4.80% notes due 2036 in the amount of $2,000 million; and 5.45% notes due 2056 in the amount of $1,000 million. Interest is payable semi-annually. The issuer received proceeds totaling $8,427 million from the 2026 U.S. Notes issuance, net of financing costs and discounts. The 2026 U.S. Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsubordinated, unsecured basis by Eaton and certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries. The 2026 U.S. Notes contain customary optional redemption and par call provisions. The 2026 U.S. Notes also contain a change of control provision which requires the Company to make an offer to purchase all or any part of the 2026 U.S. Notes at a purchase price of 101% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. The capitalized deferred financing fees are amortized in Interest expense - net over the respective terms of the 2026 U.S. Notes. The 2026 U.S. Notes are subject to customary non-financial covenants.
On March 10, 2026, Eaton Capital Unlimited Company, a subsidiary of Eaton, issued Euro denominated notes (2026 Euro Notes) with an aggregate face amount of €1,200 million ($1,390 million). The 2026 Euro Notes are comprised of two tranches of €600 million each, which mature in 2034 and 2038, with interest payable annually at a respective rate of 3.55% and 4.00% per annum. The issuer received proceeds totaling €1,191 million ($1,380 million) from the 2026 Euro Notes issuance, net of financing costs and discounts. The 2026 Euro Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsubordinated, unsecured basis by Eaton and certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries. The 2026 Euro Notes contain customary optional redemption and par call provisions. The 2026 Euro Notes also contain a change of control provision which requires the Company to make an offer to purchase all or any part of the 2026 Euro Notes at a purchase price of 101% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. The capitalized deferred financing fees are amortized in Interest expense - net over the respective terms of the 2026 Euro Notes. The 2026 Euro Notes are subject to customary non-financial covenants.
On March 6, 2026, Eaton Corporation, a subsidiary of Eaton, terminated the $8,000 million senior unsecured delayed-draw term loan facility (Term Credit Agreement) entered into on February 6, 2026. No loans were outstanding as of the date of termination and the Company incurred no fees or penalties in connection with the termination. The Term Credit Agreement was terminated in connection with the issuance of the 2026 U.S. Notes and 2026 Euro Notes.
Over the course of a year, cash, short-term investments, and short-term debt may fluctuate in order to manage global liquidity. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, Eaton had cash of $483 million and $622 million, short-term investments of $212 million and $181 million, and short-term debt of $2,091 million and $1 million, respectively. Eaton believes it has the operating flexibility, cash flow, cash and short-term investment balances, availability under the existing revolving credit facility, and access to capital markets in excess of the liquidity necessary to meet future operating needs of the business, fund capital expenditures and acquisitions of businesses, as well as scheduled payments of long-term debt, for at least the next 12 months and the foreseeable future thereafter.
On April 1, 2025, the Company paid $1.43 billion, net of cash acquired, to acquire Fibrebond Corporation. On August 6, 2025, the Company acquired Resilient Power Systems Inc. for $86 million, including $55 million of cash paid at closing and an initial estimate of $31 million for the fair value of contingent future consideration. On January 23, 2026, the Company paid $1.53 billion, net of cash acquired, to acquire Ultra PCS Limited and on March 12, 2026, the Company paid $9.55 billion, net of cash acquired, to acquire Boyd Thermal. Additionally, on January 15, 2026, Eaton invested $75 million in SPAN for a stake of approximately 7 percent.
Eaton is in compliance with each of its debt covenants for all periods presented.

Operating Cash Flow
Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $478 million in the first six months of 2026 compared to 2025. The material factor affecting this increase was working capital balances being $564 lower, partially offset by lower net income of $257 million.
Investing Cash Flow
Net cash used in investing activities increased by $11,171 million in the first six months of 2026 compared to 2025. Material factors affecting this increase were an increase in cash paid for business acquisitions of $11,079 million in 2026 compared to $1,450 million cash paid for business acquisitions in 2025 and purchases of short-term investments of $43 million in 2026 compared to sales of short term investments of $1,343 million in 2025.
Financing Cash Flow
Net cash provided by financing activities increased by $10,571 million in the first six months of 2026 compared to 2025. Material factors affecting this increase were an increase in proceeds from borrowings of $9,871 million in 2026 compared to $1,058 million proceeds from borrowings in 2025, no repurchase of shares in 2026 compared to repurchase of shares of $1,307 million in 2025, and an increase in net proceeds of short-term debt of $2,088 million in 2026 from $1,111 million in 2025, partially offset by payments on borrowings of $1,143 million in 2026 from $713 million in 2025.
Uses of Cash
Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures were $446 million and $349 million in the first six months of 2026 and 2025, respectively.

As a result, Eaton expects approximately $1.15 billion in capital expenditures in 2026.
Dividends
Cash dividend payments were $858 million and $818 million in the first six months of 2026 and 2025, respectively. Payment of quarterly dividends in the future depends upon the Company’s ability to generate net income and operating cash flows, among other factors, and is subject to declaration by the Eaton Board of Directors. The Company intends to continue to pay quarterly dividends in 2026.
Share Repurchases
On February 23, 2022, the Eaton Board of Directors adopted a share repurchase program for repurchases of ordinary shares up to $5.0 billion to be made during the three-year period commencing on that date (2022 Program). On February 27, 2025, the Eaton Board of Directors renewed the 2022 Program by providing authority for up to $9.0 billion in repurchases to be made during the three-year period commencing on that date (2025 Program). Under the 2025 Program, the ordinary shares are expected to be repurchased over time, depending on market conditions, the market price of ordinary shares, capital levels, and other considerations. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, no ordinary shares were repurchased. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, 2.3 million and 4.2 million ordinary shares, respectively, were repurchased under the 2025 or 2022 Programs in the open market at a total cost of $698 million and $1,306 million, respectively.

Acquisition of Businesses and Investments in Nonmarketable Securities
The Company paid cash of $11,079 million and $1,450 million to acquire businesses in the first six months of 2026 and 2025, respectively. Additionally, the Company paid $85 million in the first six months of 2026 for investments in nonmarketable securities. There were no investments in nonmarketable securities in the first six months of 2025. The Company will continue to focus on deploying its capital toward businesses that provide opportunities for higher growth and strong returns, and align with secular trends and its power management strategies.
Debt
The Company manages a number of short-term and long-term debt instruments, including commercial paper. At June 30, 2026, the Company had Short-term debt of $2,091 million, Current portion of long-term debt of $11 million, and Long-term debt of $18,509 million. The Company believes it has the operating flexibility, cash flow, and access to capital markets to meet scheduled payments of long-term debt. For additional information on financing transactions and debt see Note 8.
Supply Chain Finance Program
A third-party financial institution offers a voluntary supply chain finance (SCF) program that enables certain of the Company’s suppliers, at the supplier’s sole discretion, to sell receivables due from the Company to the financial institution on terms directly negotiated with the financial institution. The SCF program does not have a significant impact on the Company’s liquidity as payments by the Company to participating suppliers are paid to the financial institution on the invoice due date, regardless of whether an individual invoice is sold by the supplier to the financial institution. For additional information on the SCF program, see Note 7.
Guaranteed Debt
Issuers, Guarantors and Guarantor Structure    
Eaton Corporation has issued senior notes pursuant to indentures dated April 1, 1994 (the 1994 Indenture), November 20, 2012 (the 2012 Indenture), September 15, 2017 (the 2017 Indenture), August 23, 2022 (as supplemented by the First and Second Supplemental Indentures of the same date and the Third Supplemental Indenture dated May 18, 2023, the 2022 Indenture), and May 9, 2025 (as supplemented by the First and Second Supplemental Indentures of the same date, the Third Supplemental Indenture dated March 6, 2026, and the Fourth Supplemental Indenture dated March 10, 2026, the 2025 Indenture). Eaton Capital Unlimited Company, a subsidiary of Eaton, is the issuer of six outstanding series of debt securities sold in offshore transactions under Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act (the Eurobonds) and Registered Senior Notes (as defined below) issued under the 2025 Indenture. The senior notes issued under the 1994, 2012, 2017, 2022, and 2025 Indentures are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Registered Senior Notes). The Eurobonds and the Registered Senior Notes (together, the Senior Notes) comprise substantially all of Eaton’s long-term indebtedness.
Substantially all of the Senior Notes (with limited exceptions), together with the credit facilities described above under Liquidity and Financial Condition (the Credit Facilities), are guaranteed by Eaton and 17 of its subsidiaries. Accordingly, they rank equally with each other. However, because these obligations are not secured, they would be effectively subordinated to any existing or future secured indebtedness of Eaton and its subsidiaries. As of June 30, 2026, Eaton has no material, long-term secured debt. The guaranteed Registered Senior Notes are also structurally subordinated to the liabilities of Eaton's subsidiaries that are not guarantors. Except as described below under Future Guarantors, Eaton is not obligated to cause its subsidiaries to guarantee the Registered Senior Notes.
The table set forth in Exhibit 22 filed with the Form 10-Q filed on August 5, 2025 (10-Q Exhibit 22) details the primary obligors and guarantors with respect to the guaranteed Registered Senior Notes.

Table of Contents


Terms of Guarantees of Registered Securities
Payment of principal and interest on the Registered Senior Notes is guaranteed, on an unsecured, unsubordinated basis by the subsidiaries of Eaton set forth in the table referenced in the 10-Q Exhibit 22. Each guarantee is full and unconditional, and joint and several. Each guarantor’s guarantee is an unsecured obligation that ranks equally with all its other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. The obligations of each guarantor under its guarantee of the Registered Senior Notes are subject to a customary savings clause or similar provision designed to prevent such guarantee from constituting a fraudulent conveyance or otherwise legally impermissible or voidable obligation.
Though the terms of the indentures vary slightly, generally, each guarantee of the Registered Senior Notes by a guarantor that is a subsidiary of Eaton Corporation provides that it will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged under certain circumstances, including, but not limited to:
(a)the consummation of certain types of transactions permitted under the applicable indenture, including one that results in such guarantor ceasing to be a subsidiary; and
(b)for Registered Senior Notes issued under the 2022 and 2025 Indentures, when such guarantor is a guarantor or issuer of indebtedness in an aggregate outstanding principal amount of less than 25% of our total outstanding indebtedness.
Further, each guarantee by a direct or indirect parent of Eaton Corporation (other than Eaton) provides that it will also be released if:
(c)such guarantee (so long as the guarantor is not obligated under any other U.S. debt obligations), becomes prohibited by any applicable law, rule or regulation or by any contractual obligation; or
(d)such guarantee results in material adverse tax consequences to Eaton or any of its subsidiaries (so long as the applicable guarantor is not obligated under any other U.S. debt obligation).
The guarantee of Eaton does not contain any release provisions.
Future Guarantors
The 2012 and 2017 Indentures generally provide that, with certain limited exceptions, any subsidiary of Eaton must become a guarantor if it becomes obligated as borrower or guarantor under any series of debt securities or a syndicated credit facility. Further, the 2012 and 2017 Indentures provide that any entity that becomes a direct or indirect parent entity of Eaton Corporation and holds any material assets, with certain limited exceptions, or owes any material liabilities must become a guarantor. The 2022 and 2025 Indentures provide only that, with certain limited exceptions, any subsidiary of Eaton must become a guarantor if it becomes obligated as borrower or guarantor under indebtedness with an aggregate outstanding principal amount in excess of 25% of the Parent and its Subsidiaries’ then-outstanding indebtedness.
The 1994 Indenture does not contain provisions with respect to future guarantors.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
Information regarding the Company's legal proceedings is presented in Note 10 of the Notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 1A.RISK FACTORS.
“Item 1A. Risk Factors” in Eaton's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 includes a discussion of the Company's risk factors. The information below updates the risks relating to the separation of the Mobility business. There have been no material changes to the other previously disclosed risk factors.
We may not complete the anticipated separation of our Mobility business and its merger with Dana Incorporated or complete the transaction within the timeframe we anticipate or at all; the transaction may present difficulties that could have an adverse effect on us; costs associated with the transaction may be higher than anticipated; we may not realize some or all of the expected benefits of the transaction.
On June 10, 2026, we entered into a definitive agreement with Dana Incorporated (Dana) pursuant to which we will separate our Mobility business and combine it with Dana in a Reverse Morris Trust transaction (the Transaction). We currently anticipate that we will close the Transaction in the first quarter of 2027, but satisfying the conditions to the closing of the Transaction (including the receipt of Dana stockholder approval and receipt of required regulatory clearances) may take longer than we expect and there can be no assurance that all such conditions will be satisfied or waived.
In addition, Reverse Morris Trust transactions are complex in nature, and unanticipated developments or changes, including changes in law, the macroeconomic environment and market conditions or regulatory or political conditions may affect our ability to complete the Transaction as currently expected, within the anticipated time frame or at all. Any changes to the Transaction, delay or failure in completing it could cause us not to realize some or all of the expected benefits, or realize them on a different timeline than expected, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or our stock price.
40

Table of Contents


Whether or not we complete the Transaction, our ongoing businesses may be adversely affected and we may be subject to certain risks and consequences as a result of pursuing the Transaction, including the following: the pursuit of the Transaction may be complex, costly and time-consuming and could divert management’s attention from day-to-day business concerns and divert Eaton’s resources from other strategic opportunities and operational matters; the pendency of the Transaction could have an adverse impact on our ability to attract, retain and motivate key employees and on relationships with existing and prospective customers, suppliers and other third parties; we could be subject to litigation related to the Transaction, which could result in significant costs and expenses; and we may have to delay or forgo business opportunities that may otherwise arise with respect to the Mobility business segment in favor of the Transaction under the terms of the merger agreement entered into with Dana. In addition, although we intend for the transaction to be tax-free to our stockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes, there can be no assurance that the Transaction will so qualify. Any of these factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or our stock price.

ITEM 2.UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.
(c) Issuer's Purchases of Equity Securities
During the second quarter of 2026, there were no shares repurchased.

ITEM 5.    OTHER INFORMATION.
