Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.
Form Type
10-Q
IDEX Corporation (IEX) reported third-quarter 2026 net sales of $951.7 million, up 8% year over year, and diluted EPS of $1.95, up 15%. Net income attributable to IDEX was $144.1 million, compared with $127.8 million. For the first nine months of 2026, net sales were $2,759.2 million, up 8%, net income attributable to IDEX was $407.5 million, up 15%, and diluted EPS was $5.49, up 17%.
Quarterly gross margin was 45.1%, versus 44.5%. IDEX cited higher volumes, especially in Health & Science Technologies, and positive pricing across segments; it described demand in data centers, semiconductor, and space and defense markets. Nine-month operating cash flow was $543.2 million versus $470.9 million, while free cash flow was $477.3 million versus $427.0 million. IDEX repurchased 1.1 million shares for $227.0 million; $699.7 million of share repurchase authorization remained as of September 30, 2026. Tariff refunds and related expected customer rebates reduced nine-month cost of sales by $22.7 million and net sales by $13.1 million, increased gross margin by 60 basis points, and contributed $0.10 to diluted EPS.

How this balance works
Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.
It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.
Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

5 terms
Adjusted EBITDA financial
"uses adjusted earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”)"
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
Organic sales financial
"Organic sales for the same periods increased 8% and 6%"
Organic sales are the change in a company’s revenue that comes from its existing business operations, excluding effects of acquisitions, divestitures, and currency swings. Think of it like measuring how much a garden grows from the plants you already tended, rather than adding new pots; investors use organic sales to judge whether demand and core business performance are genuinely improving or if growth is driven by one‑time deals or accounting shifts.
Free cash flow financial
"Free cash flow is calculated as cash flows provided by operating activities less capital expenditures"
Free cash flow is the amount of money a company has left over after paying all its expenses and investing in its business, like buying equipment or updating facilities. It shows how much cash is available to reward shareholders, pay down debt, or save for future growth. This helps investors understand if a company is financially healthy and able to grow.
Operating working capital financial
"Operating working capital, calculated as Receivables – net plus Inventories – net minus Trade accounts payable"
Contingent consideration financial
"future cash consideration payments of up to $12.0 million"
Contingent consideration is an additional payment agreed when one company buys another that will be paid later only if specific future targets are met, such as revenue, profit, or regulatory milestones. It matters to investors because it shifts risk between buyer and seller and affects the acquiring company's future cash flow and reported value — like promising a bonus after results are proven.

(unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of IDEX Corporation (“IDEX” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) applicable to interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The statements are unaudited but include all adjustments, consisting only of recurring items, except as noted, that the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the information set forth herein. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year.
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements set forth in this report should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires public entities to disclose, within the footnotes to the financial statements, disaggregated information about certain income statement expense captions, including disclosure of amounts for purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization, included in each relevant expense caption. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Adoption of this ASU should be applied prospectively, but may be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on the Company’s financial statement disclosures and expects the standard will increase disclosures in the Company’s annual and interim reporting when adopted.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-10, Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities, which establishes authoritative guidance on the accounting for government grants to business entities. ASU 2025-10 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2028. Adoption of this ASU may be applied using a modified prospective, modified retrospective or retrospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on the Company’s financial statement disclosures, but does not expect the impact to be material.
In May 2026, the FASB issued ASU 2026-02, Environmental Credits and Environmental Credit Obligations (Topic 818), which establishes a model for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of environmental credits and compliance obligations that may be settled by using environmental credits. ASU 2026-02 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Adoption of this ASU should be applied retrospectively via a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings. Prior periods will not be adjusted. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and disclosures.
2. Acquisitions and Divestitures
All of the Company’s acquisitions of businesses have been accounted for under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of the acquired companies, after adjustments to reflect the fair values assigned to the assets and liabilities, have been included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets from their respective dates of acquisition. The results of operations of businesses acquired have been included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income since their respective dates of acquisition. Supplemental pro forma information has not been provided as the acquisitions did not have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements individually or in the aggregate.

The Company makes a preliminary allocation of the purchase price for each acquisition as of the acquisition date based on its understanding of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. These nonrecurring fair value measurements are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. As the Company continues to obtain additional information, primarily related to the valuations of these assets and liabilities, and continues to integrate the newly acquired business, the Company will refine the estimates of fair value and more accurately allocate the purchase price through the completion of the measurement period, which is not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition. Only items that existed as of the acquisition date are considered for subsequent adjustment to the purchase price allocation. Goodwill recognized reflects the strategic fit, revenue and earnings growth potential of the acquired business and its synergies with existing IDEX businesses.
2025 Acquisitions
Micro-LAM, Inc.
On July 29, 2025, the Company acquired Micro-LAM, Inc. (“Micro-LAM”) in a stock acquisition. Micro-LAM is an advanced optics manufacturer of laser-assisted machining, ultra-precision diamond tools and custom optics that is complementary to the Company’s Optics Technologies solutions. Headquartered in Portage, Michigan, Micro-LAM operates in the Company’s Scientific Fluidics & Optics reporting unit within the Health & Science Technologies segment. Micro-LAM was acquired for cash consideration of $80.4 million, net of cash acquired of $0.3 million, plus a potential earnout of up to $12.0 million of additional cash consideration based upon the achievement of certain financial performance targets over a two-year period. Total consideration of $81.6 million includes the fair value of the potential earnout as of the acquisition date of $1.2 million. For additional discussion of the earnout valuation, refer to Note 9, “Fair Value Measurements.” The acquisition was funded using additional borrowings under the Company’s Revolving Facility (as defined in Note 8, “Borrowings”). Goodwill and intangible assets recognized as part of this transaction were $37.5 million and $44.6 million, respectively. The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.
As of September 30, 2026, the final allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date, is as follows:
| Total | |||||
| Current assets, net of cash acquired | $ | ||||

4. Revenue
Disaggregation of Revenue
The Company has a comprehensive offering of products, including technologies, built to customers’ specifications that are sold in niche markets throughout the world. The Company disaggregates revenue from contracts with customers by reporting unit and geographical region for each segment as the Company believes it best depicts how the amount, nature, timing and uncertainty of its revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. Revenue, presented as Net sales on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, was attributed to geographical region based on the location of the customer. The following tables present revenue disaggregated by reporting unit and geographical region.

5. Earnings Per Common Share
Diluted earnings per common share (“EPS”) attributable to IDEX is computed by dividing Net income attributable to IDEX by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (basic) plus common stock equivalents outstanding (diluted) for the period. Common stock equivalents consist of restricted stock, performance share units and stock options, which have been included in the calculation of weighted average common shares outstanding using the treasury stock method.
Outstanding unvested share-based payment awards that contain rights to non-forfeitable dividends participate in undistributed earnings with common shareholders. If awards are considered participating securities, the Company is required to apply the two-class method of computing basic and diluted earnings per common share. The Company has both participating and non-participating securities. Dividend rights for restricted stock awards issued under the IDEX Corporation 2024 Incentive Award Plan (the “2024 Incentive Award Plan”) are subject to the same vesting requirements as the underlying restricted stock awards, and therefore, these awards are considered non-participating securities. Dividend rights for restricted stock awards issued prior to the adoption of the 2024 Incentive Award Plan are non-forfeitable and are not subject to the same vesting requirements as the underlying restricted stock awards. As such, these awards have been determined to be participating securities. Accordingly, Diluted EPS attributable to IDEX was computed using the two-class method.

Revolving Facility
On September 3, 2026, the Company entered into a second amended and restated credit agreement (as amended and restated, the “Credit Agreement”) along with certain of its subsidiaries, as borrowers (the “Borrowers”), Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, swingline lender and an issuer of letters of credit, and other agents party thereto. The Credit Agreement consists of a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $800 million with a final maturity date of September 3, 2031. The maturity date may be extended twice under certain conditions, each for an additional one-year term. Up to $100 million of the Revolving Facility is available for the issuance of letters of credit. Additionally, up to $50 million of the Revolving Facility is available to the Company for swingline loans, available on a same-day basis.
Proceeds of the Revolving Facility are available for use by the Borrowers for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including refinancing existing debt of the Company and its subsidiaries and financing of acquisitions. The Company may request increases in the lending commitments under the Credit Agreement, but the aggregate lending commitments pursuant to such increases may not exceed $400 million. The Company has the right, subject to certain conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement, to designate certain foreign subsidiaries of the Company as borrowers under the Revolving Facility. In connection with any such designation, the Company is required to guarantee the obligations of any such subsidiaries under the Credit Agreement.
Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest, at either an alternate base rate or Term SOFR (or appropriate alternative currency reference rates) plus, in each case, an applicable margin. Such applicable margin is based on the better of the Company’s senior, unsecured, long-term debt rating or the Company’s applicable leverage ratio and can range from 0.00 % to 1.30 %. Interest is payable (a) in the case of base rate loans, quarterly, and (b) in the case of Term SOFR loans, on the last day of the applicable interest period selected, or every three months from the effective date of such interest period for interest periods exceeding three months.
The Credit Agreement requires payment to the lenders of a facility fee based upon the amount of the lenders’ commitments under the credit facility from time to time, equal to the applicable facility rate times the actual daily amount of the Revolving Facility. Voluntary prepayments of any loans and voluntary reductions of the unutilized portion of the commitments under the credit facility are permissible without penalty, subject to break funding payments and minimum notice and minimum reduction amount requirements.

9. Fair Value Measurements
The accounting guidance for fair value measurements and disclosures establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy:
•Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
•Level 2: Inputs, other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
•Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions.
The following table summarizes the basis used to measure the Company’s financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis in the balance sheets at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025:
| September 30, 2026 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

| Assets | |||||||||||||||||||||||
Trading securities - mutual funds held in nonqualified SERP(1) | $ | $ | $ | $ | |||||||||||||||||||
| Liabilities | |||||||||||||||||||||||
Contingent consideration(2) | |||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) The Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) investment assets are offset by a SERP liability which represents the Company’s obligation to distribute SERP funds to participants. The SERP investment assets and liability are included in Other noncurrent assets and Other noncurrent liabilities, respectively, on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
(2) In connection with the acquisition of Micro-LAM, the Company entered into an earnout agreement that may require the Company to make future cash consideration payments of up to $12.0 million based upon the achievement of certain financial performance targets from January 1, 2026 to December 31, 2027. As of September 30, 2026, $0.4 million of contingent consideration related to the Micro-LAM acquisition has been included in Accrued expenses and $0.8 million has been included in Other noncurrent liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2025, $1.2 million of contingent consideration related to the Micro-LAM acquisition was included in Other noncurrent liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The contingent consideration was derived using a Monte Carlo simulation model which utilizes inputs including discount rates, volatility rates, and estimated probability of achieving projected revenue and profitability targets. This fair value measurement of contingent consideration is categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, as the measurement amount is based primarily on significant inputs that are not observable in the market. The fair value of the contingent consideration is re-measured at each reporting period, and the change in fair value is recognized within Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. There was no
There were no transfers of assets or liabilities between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 or the year ended December 31, 2025.

The carrying values of the Company’s other financial instruments (i.e., cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses) approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments.
Certain non-financial assets, primarily property, plant and equipment, goodwill and intangible assets, are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are reported at their carrying value. However, these assets are required to be assessed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be fully recoverable, and at least annually for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets. See Note 7, “Goodwill and Intangible Assets,” for additional information about these assets.
The following table provides the fair value of the outstanding indebtedness described in Note 8, “Borrowings,” which is based on quoted market prices and current market rates for debt with similar credit risk and maturity, as well as the carrying value. These fair value measurements are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy since they are determined based upon significant inputs observable in the market, including interest rates on recent financing transactions to entities with a credit rating similar to the Company’s rating.

12. Share-Based Compensation
The Company typically grants equity awards annually at its regularly scheduled first quarter meeting of the Board of Directors based on the recommendation from the Compensation Committee.
Stock Options
Stock options granted under the Company’s plans are generally non-qualified and are granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant. The fair value of each option grant in the periods presented was estimated on the date of the grant using the Black Scholes valuation model. Stock options generally vest annually in equal amounts over four years , with vesting beginning one year from the date of grant, and generally expire 10 years from the date of grant. The service period for certain retiree eligible participants is accelerated. The assumptions used in determining the fair value of the stock options granted in the respective periods were as follows:

Cash-Settled Restricted Stock
The Company also maintains a cash-settled share-based compensation plan for certain employees. Cash-settled restricted stock awards granted under the 2024 Incentive Award Plan beginning in 2026 generally vest annually in equal amounts over three years , with vesting beginning one year from the date of grant. Cash-settled restricted stock awards granted prior to 2026 generally cliff vest after three years . The service period for certain retiree eligible participants is accelerated. Cash-settled restricted stock awards are recorded at fair value on a quarterly basis using the market price of the Company’s stock on the last day of the quarter. At September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had accrued $4.8 million and $3.6 million, respectively, for cash-settled restricted stock in Accrued expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and had accrued $3.3 million and $2.4 million, respectively, for cash-settled restricted stock in Other noncurrent liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. These recurring fair value measurements are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. Dividend equivalents are earned throughout the award period and paid upon vesting for certain cash-settled restricted stock awards granted after the adoption of the 2024 Incentive Award Plan. Dividend equivalents are paid on a current basis on certain cash-settled restricted stock awards granted prior to the adoption of the 2024 Incentive Award Plan. A summary of the Company’s unvested cash-settled restricted stock activity as of September 30, 2026 and changes during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 are presented in the following table:

As of September 30, 2026, there was $6.6 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to cash-settled restricted stock that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.1 years.
Performance Share Units
Performance share unit awards represent rights to receive shares of the Company’s common stock and will vest between 0 % and 250 % of the target share unit amount. Performance share units granted after December 31, 2024 are earned over a three-year performance period based on an internal income growth metric (a performance condition), weighted 25 %. The remaining 75 % of the award is earned based on a market condition, which is the total shareholder return of IDEX common stock in relation to the total shareholder return of a group of peer companies (for awards granted in 2025, the peer group consists of companies in the S&P 500 index, and for awards granted beginning in 2026, the peer group consists of companies in the S&P 900 Capital Goods and Life Sciences Tools & Services indexes). Performance share unit awards granted prior to 2025 are earned solely based on the Company’s total shareholder return ranking in relation to the total shareholder return of companies in the S&P 500 Index over a three-year period following the date of grant.
The fair value of the performance condition portion of the awards granted after December 31, 2024 is equal to the market price of the Company’s stock at the date of the grant, and the amount of expense recognized over the vesting period is subject to adjustment based on the expected attainment of the performance condition. The fair value of the market condition portion of all performance share unit awards is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model, and the amount of expense recognized over the vesting period is not subject to change based on future market conditions. The assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulation model to determine the fair value of the market condition portion of the performance share units granted in the respective periods were as follows:

The Company expects to contribute approximately $4.6 million to its defined benefit plans and $1.0 million to its other postretirement benefit plans in 2026. The Company contributed a total of $4.2 million and $3.6 million to fund these plans during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
14. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company and certain of its subsidiaries are involved in pending and threatened legal, regulatory and other proceedings incidental to the operations of their businesses. These proceedings may pertain to matters such as product liability or contract disputes, and may also involve governmental inquiries, inspections, audits or investigations relating to issues such as tax matters, intellectual property, environmental, health and safety issues, governmental regulations, employment and other matters. Although the results of such legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company believes that the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect, individually or in the aggregate, on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
15. Income Taxes
The Company’s provision for income taxes is based upon estimated annual tax rates for the year applied to federal income as well as state and foreign income in various jurisdictions, permanent differences between book and tax items, tax credits and the Company’s change in relative income in each jurisdiction. The provision for income taxes and the effective tax rates for the periods presented were as follows:
| Three Months Ended September 30, | Nine Months Ended September 30, | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| 2026 | 2025 | 2026 | 2025 | ||||||||||||||||||||
| Income before income taxes | $ | $ | $ | $ | |||||||||||||||||||
| Provision for income taxes | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Effective tax rate | % | % | % | % | |||||||||||||||||||
The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 reflects a discrete tax expense related to reserves on an ongoing state audit during the third quarter of 2026.
The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 reflects the impact of the enactment of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. The enacted tax legislation had an unfavorable impact on the foreign derived intangible income deduction primarily due to the recovery of previously capitalized unamortized research expenditures. The nine months ended September 30, 2025 also reflects a discrete tax benefit related to the finalization of a prior year preferential rate with taxing authorities in a foreign jurisdiction. This discrete tax benefit was partially offset by the impact of state tax law changes enacted in June 2025, foreign tax differentials related to increased tax rates and the mix of earnings in higher tax rate jurisdictions.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes in this quarterly report. This discussion may contain forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties. The Company’s actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of several factors, including those set forth under Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in the Company’s most recent annual report on Form 10-K and under the heading “Cautionary Statement Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act” discussed elsewhere in this quarterly report.
This discussion includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that have been defined and reconciled to the most directly comparable financial measure prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) under the headings “Non-GAAP Disclosures” and “Free Cash Flow.” This discussion also includes Operating working capital, which has been defined under the heading “Liquidity and Capital Resources.” The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and the reconciliations from these results should be carefully evaluated.
Overview
IDEX is an applied solutions provider specializing in the manufacturing of health and science technologies, fluid and metering technologies, and fire, safety and other diversified products built to customers’ specifications. IDEX’s products are sold in niche markets across a wide range of industries throughout the world. Accordingly, IDEX’s businesses are affected by levels of industrial activity and economic conditions in the U.S. and in other countries where it does business, as well as by the relationship of the U.S. Dollar to other currencies. Levels of capacity utilization and capital spending in certain markets and overall industrial activity are important factors that influence the demand for IDEX’s products.
Highlights
(All comparisons are against the same period in 2025 unless otherwise noted)
Three Months Ended September 30, 2026
•Net sales of $951.7 million increased 8% on both a reported basis and organically*
•Reported diluted earnings per common share (“EPS”) attributable to IDEX of $1.95 increased 15%
•Adjusted diluted EPS attributable to IDEX* of $2.33 increased 15%
•Returned capital to shareholders in the form of $74.6 million of share repurchases and $54.0 million of dividends
*These are non-GAAP measures. See the definitions of these non-GAAP measures and reconciliations to their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures under the heading “Non-GAAP Disclosures.”
During the third quarter of 2026, the Company delivered strong results as continuous improvement efforts, the power of 8020, and measured pricing actions continued to expand margins while absorbing higher costs. Continued growth in targeted advantaged markets, including data centers, semiconductor and space and defense, primarily within the Health & Science Technologies (“HST”) segment, was complemented by broadening industrial strength across Fluid & Metering Technologies’ (“FMT”) and Fire & Safety/Diversified Products (“FSDP”).
Recent Developments
On February 20, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a decision invalidating the broad-based tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”). The Company collected substantially all of the anticipated refunds of previously paid IEEPA tariffs during the second quarter of 2026 with minimal impact continuing into the third quarter of 2026.
The three months ended September 30, 2026 included a $0.7 million reduction of Cost of sales as well as a $1.6 million benefit to Net sales for revisions to estimated customer rebates, which together increased Gross margin by 10 basis points and contributed $0.02 to diluted EPS attributable to IDEX. The nine months ended September 30, 2026 included a $22.7 million reduction of Cost of sales as well as a $13.1 million reduction of Net sales from expected customer rebates associated with the refunds, which decreased organic sales growth by 1%, increased Gross margin 60 basis points and contributed $0.10 to diluted EPS attributable to IDEX during the nine months ended September 30, 2026.

Table of Contents
In response to the U.S. Supreme Court ruling, the administration implemented new tariffs under alternative statutory authority and may continue implementing other additional tariffs. The tariffs enacted in 2025 and in the first quarter of 2026 did not have a material impact on the Company’s business or financial statements in the periods presented.

Net Sales
Net sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 increased as compared to the same prior year periods primarily as a result of increased organic sales. Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 also reflect favorable impacts from foreign currency translation and contributions from acquisitions. Organic sales for the same periods increased 8% and 6%, respectively, driven by higher volumes, primarily in the HST segment. The increase in both periods also reflects positive price across all segments.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Gross profit and Gross margin for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 benefited from net operational productivity improvements and volume leverage. Mix benefited Gross profit and Gross margin for the three months ended September 30, 2026, but was unfavorable to Gross profit and Gross margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2026. Foreign currency translation favorably impacted Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 with no impact to Gross margin. While Gross profit also benefited from favorable price/cost, cost increases were not fully recovered at historical margin rates, resulting in Gross margin pressure in both periods presented. Included in price/cost were the net benefits of IEEPA tariff refunds previously discussed.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, reflecting a $1.9 million and $7.4 million increase from acquisitions, including amortization, respectively, as well as higher employee-related costs, including variable compensation, and increased professional services spending, partially offset by proceeds received related to legal settlements, as compared to the same prior year periods.

Restructuring Expenses and Asset Impairments
Restructuring expenses and asset impairments for the three months ended September 30, 2026 primarily relate to severance costs that were incurred as a result of employee reductions, including reductions in connection with the anticipated closure of a facility in the HST segment. The nine months ended September 30, 2026 also include asset impairments of $4.8 million related to intangible assets and property, plant and equipment within the Company’s FMT segment. Restructuring expenses and asset impairments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily relate to severance costs that were incurred in conjunction with organizational changes.
Other (Income) Expense – Net
Other (income) expense – net during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 reflects the impact of foreign currency transactions.
Interest Expense – Net
Interest expense – net for the three months ended September 30, 2026 decreased primarily due to lower average borrowings under the Revolving Facility and higher interest income earned as compared to the prior year period. Interest expense – net for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 decreased primarily due to the payoff of the Company’s 3.37% Senior Notes in 2025.
Income Taxes
The effective tax rate was 25.2% and 24.0% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively, reasonably consistent with 25.1% and 23.8% during the respective same periods in 2025.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
Based on management’s current expectations and currently available information, the Company believes current cash, cash from operations and cash available under the Revolving Facility will be sufficient to meet its cash requirements, including funding of working capital, planned capital expenditures, interest and principal payments on all borrowings, pension and postretirement funding requirements, share repurchases and quarterly dividend payments to holders of the Company’s common stock for the foreseeable future. Additionally, in the event that suitable businesses are available for acquisition upon acceptable terms, the Company may obtain all or a portion of the financing for these acquisitions through the incurrence of additional borrowings. The Company believes that additional borrowings through various financing alternatives remain available, if required.
Select key liquidity metrics at September 30, 2026 are as follows:
| (In millions) | September 30, 2026 | |||||||
| Working capital | $ | 1,130.6 | ||||||
| Current ratio | 2.8 to 1 | |||||||

Operating Working Capital
Operating working capital, calculated as Receivables – net plus Inventories – net minus Trade accounts payable, is used by management as a measurement of operational results as well as the short-term liquidity of the Company. The following table details Operating working capital as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025:

Acquisitions and foreign currency translation decreased Operating working capital by $9.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2026. Apart from these items, the primary drivers of the change in Operating working capital were higher sales volumes and positive price leading to higher receivables and higher inventories, which increased to support planned production.

Cash Flow Summary
The following table is derived from the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows:
| Nine Months Ended September 30, | ||||||||||||||||||||
| (In millions) | 2026 | 2025 | Change | |||||||||||||||||
| Net cash flows provided by (used in): | ||||||||||||||||||||

| Investing activities | (67.7) | (120.0) | 52.3 | |||||||||||||||||
| Financing activities | (441.4) | (424.9) | (16.5) | |||||||||||||||||
Operating Activities
Cash provided by operating activities increased $72.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2026 as compared to the prior year period. Improved operational results and the net benefit of cash received for IEEPA tariff refunds were partially offset by higher cash tax payments.
Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities decreased $52.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2026 as compared to the prior year period primarily due to the purchase of Micro-LAM during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 for $80.7 million, partially offset by a $22.0 million increase in capital expenditures and the absence of $4.2 million of funds received in connection with the finalization of the Mott purchase price in the prior year period.
Financing Activities
Cash used in financing activities increased $16.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2026 as compared to the prior year period. The nine months ended September 30, 2026 included $77.1 million of higher net payments under the Revolving Facility and $53.0 million of higher share repurchases, partially offset by $16.9 million of higher proceeds from stock option exercises, net of shares withheld for taxes. The nine months ended September 30, 2025 also included a $100.0 million payment on long-term borrowings that did not reoccur in the current year period.
Free Cash Flow
The Company believes free cash flow, a non-GAAP measure, is an important measure of performance because it provides a measurement of cash generated from operations that is available for payment obligations such as operating cash requirements, planned capital expenditures, interest and principal payments on all borrowings, pension and postretirement funding requirements and quarterly dividend payments to holders of the Company’s common stock as well as for funding acquisitions and share repurchases. Free cash flow is calculated as cash flows provided by operating activities less capital expenditures.
The following table reconciles cash flows provided by operating activities to free cash flow:

Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures generally include machinery and equipment that support growth and improved productivity, tooling, business system technology, replacement of equipment and investments in new facilities. The Company believes it has sufficient operating cash flows to continue to meet current obligations and invest in planned capital expenditures. Cash flows from operations were more than adequate to fund capital expenditures of $65.9 million and $43.9 million in the first nine months of 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Share Repurchases
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company paid $228.0 million for share repurchases, comprised of $223.5 million for shares repurchased and settled during the period, $2.2 million for shares repurchased in December 2025 that settled in January 2026 and $2.3 million of excise taxes for shares repurchased in 2025.

The key financial covenants that the Company is required to maintain in connection with the 5.13% Senior Notes are a minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.0 to 1 and a maximum leverage ratio of 3.50 to 1, which is the ratio of the Company’s consolidated total debt to its consolidated EBITDA, as defined within the Credit Agreement. The key financial covenant the Company is required to maintain in connection with the Revolving Facility is a net leverage ratio of 3.50 to 1, which is the ratio of the Company’s consolidated total debt less eligible cash deductions to its consolidated EBITDA, as defined within the Credit Agreement. At September 30, 2026, the Company’s interest coverage ratio was 14.69 to 1 for covenant calculation purposes, the leverage ratio was 1.72 to 1 and the net leverage ratio was 1.39 to 1.

Non-GAAP Disclosures
The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. To supplement its U.S. GAAP financial results, the Company presents certain non-GAAP financial measures. Management uses these non-GAAP measures to evaluate operating performance, assess trends, allocate resources and support financial and operational decision-making. Management believes these measures provide investors with additional insight into the Company’s ongoing business performance and enhance comparability across reporting periods by excluding the impact of items that management does not consider reflective of ongoing operations.
Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as its measure of segment performance. Management believes it is a useful indicator of the strength and performance of the Company and its segments’ ongoing business operations as well as a way for investors to evaluate and compare operating performance and value companies within the Company’s industry. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA margin is useful for the same reasons as Adjusted EBITDA. The definition of Adjusted EBITDA used here may differ from that used by other companies.
The Company defines its non-GAAP measures below and presents reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures in the tables that follow. There were no adjustments to U.S. GAAP financial performance metrics other than the items noted below.
•Organic sales are calculated as Net sales excluding amounts from acquired or divested businesses during the first twelve months of ownership or prior to divestiture and excluding the impact of foreign currency translation.
•Adjusted gross profit is calculated as Gross profit, adjusted to exclude the impact of fair value inventory step-up charges and restructuring-related charges.
•Adjusted gross margin is calculated as Adjusted gross profit divided by Net sales.
•Adjusted net income attributable to IDEX is calculated as Net income attributable to IDEX, adjusted to exclude the impact of fair value inventory step-up charges, Restructuring expenses and asset impairments and other restructuring-related charges, acquisition-related intangible asset amortization and legal settlements and contingencies, all net of the statutory tax expense or benefit.
•Adjusted diluted EPS attributable to IDEX is calculated as Adjusted net income attributable to IDEX divided by the diluted weighted average shares outstanding.
•Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as consolidated earnings before interest expense - net, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, or consolidated EBITDA, adjusted to exclude the impact of fair value inventory step-up charges, Restructuring expenses and asset impairments and other restructuring-related charges and legal settlements and contingencies.
•Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA divided by Net sales.
•Free cash flow is calculated as cash flows from operating activities less capital expenditures. This non-GAAP measure is discussed and reconciled to its most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure in the section above titled “Free Cash Flow.”
These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and the reconciliations from those results should be carefully evaluated. Due to rounding, numbers presented throughout this and other documents may not add up or recalculate precisely.

There have been no material changes with respect to market risks disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The Company and its subsidiaries are party to legal proceedings incidental to the operation of their businesses as described in Note 14 in Part I, Item 1, “Commitments and Contingencies,” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and such disclosure is incorporated by reference into this Item 1. “Legal Proceedings.”
The Company’s threshold for disclosing material environmental legal proceedings involving a government authority where potential monetary sanctions are involved is $1.0 million.
In addition, the Company and eight of its subsidiaries are presently named as defendants in a number of lawsuits claiming various asbestos-related personal injuries, allegedly as a result of exposure to products manufactured with components that contained asbestos. These components were acquired from third-party suppliers and were not manufactured by the Company or any of the defendant subsidiaries. To date, the majority of the Company’s settlements and legal costs, except for costs of coordination, administration, insurance investigation and a portion of defense costs, have been covered in full by insurance, subject to applicable deductibles. However, the Company cannot predict whether and to what extent insurance will be available to continue to cover these settlements and legal costs, or how insurers may respond to claims that are tendered to them. Asbestos-related claims have been filed in jurisdictions throughout the United States and the United Kingdom. Most of the claims resolved to date have been dismissed without payment. The balance of the claims has been settled for various immaterial amounts. Only one case has been tried, resulting in a verdict for the Company’s business unit. No provision has been made in the financial statements of the Company, other than for insurance deductibles in the ordinary course, and the Company does not currently believe the asbestos-related claims will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
