Summary of financial results
Quarter ended March 31, 2026
Net sales of $7.5 billion were 3.6% ahead of last year driven by organic revenue growth of 2.8% and acquisition growth of 0.8%. Price inflation was in the mid-single digits.
Gross margin of 31.0% was 30 basis points above last year reflecting solid execution across the business. In addition, we continued to drive productivity and diligently manage the cost base.
Reported operating profit was $612 million (8.2% operating margin), 20.7% ahead of last year. Adjusted operating profit of $647 million (8.7% adjusted operating margin) was 8.4% above last year.
Reported diluted earnings per share was $2.13, an increase of 23.1% compared to last year, while adjusted diluted earnings per share of $2.28 increased 9.1% due to the higher adjusted operating profit and the impact of share repurchases.
US – quarter ended March 31, 2026
Net sales in the US business increased by 3.5%, with organic revenue growth of 2.9% and a further 0.6% contribution from acquisitions.
Residential end markets, representing approximately half of US revenue, remained challenged. New residential construction activity has been weak and repair, maintenance and improvement (“RMI”) work remains soft. We continue to outperform weak markets with residential revenue down 1% in the quarter.
Although the overall non-residential market remains mixed, our scale, expertise, multi-customer group approach and value-added solutions drove strong share gains with non-residential revenue up 8% this quarter. We are pleased with the on-going large capital project activity and continue to see solid shipments with growth in open order volumes and bidding activity.
Adjusted operating profit of $656 million was 7.4% or $45 million above last year.
We completed two acquisitions within our Waterworks customer group during the first quarter, including: Technology Sales Associates, Inc. and Chesapeake Environmental Equipment, LLC. Subsequent to quarter-end, we acquired Carrier Great Lakes in our HVAC customer group. We also signed definitive purchase agreements for two additional HVAC acquisitions, Dealers Supply Company and New England Applied Products, as well as PRD Technologies Group within our Industrial customer group. We anticipate closing these three acquisitions during the second quarter. Collectively, these acquisitions will expand and enhance our capabilities across water and wastewater treatment, residential, commercial and applied HVAC, and industrial valves and flow control. The aggregate annualized revenue impact of these six acquisitions is approximately $350 million.
Canada – quarter ended March 31, 2026
Net sales increased by 5.5%, with a 5.8% contribution from acquisitions offset by an organic decline of 0.3%. A favorable 4.6% impact from foreign exchange rates was fully offset by 4.6% from a non-core business divestment. Markets have remained subdued in Canada, particularly in residential. Adjusted operating profit of $5 million was $1 million below last year.

Non-GAAP Reconciliations and Supplementary Information
(unaudited)
Non-GAAP items
This announcement contains certain financial information that is not presented in conformity with U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures include adjusted operating profit, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share – diluted, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted effective tax rate, net debt and net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide users of the Company’s financial information with additional meaningful information to assist in understanding financial results and assessing the Company’s performance from period to period. Management believes these measures are important indicators of operations because they exclude items that may not be indicative of our core operating results and provide a better baseline for analyzing trends in our underlying businesses, and they are consistent with how business performance is planned, reported and assessed internally by management and the board of directors. Such non-GAAP adjustments include amortization of acquired intangible assets, discrete tax items, and any other items that are non-recurring. Non-recurring items may include various restructuring charges, gains or losses on the disposals of businesses which by their nature do not reflect primary operations, as well as certain other items deemed non-recurring in nature and/or that are not a result of the Company’s primary operations. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for results reported under U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of operations that, when viewed with U.S. GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of the business. The Company strongly encourages investors and shareholders to review the Company’s financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.
The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis because it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty or without unreasonable effort non-recurring items, such as those described above, that may arise in the future. The variability of these items is unpredictable and may have a significant impact.

Net Debt : Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation
To assess the appropriateness of its capital structure, the Company’s principal measure of financial leverage is net debt to adjusted EBITDA. The Company aims to operate with investment grade credit metrics and keep this ratio within one to two times.
Net debt
Net debt comprises bank overdrafts, bank and other loans and derivative financial instruments, excluding lease liabilities, less cash and cash equivalents. Long-term debt is presented net of debt issuance costs.
