Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

Ingersoll Rand remains in a strong financial position with ample liquidity of $4.0 billion. On a reported basis, the Company generated $404 million of cash flow from operating activities and invested $30 million in capital expenditures, resulting in free cash flow¹ of $374 million, compared to cash flow from operating activities of $397 million and free cash flow¹ of $369 million in the prior year period. Net debt to Adjusted EBITDA leverage² was 1.7x for the third quarter, which was an increase of 0.8x as compared to the prior year driven primarily by the acquisition of ILC Dover, which took place in the second quarter of 2024.

Consistent with our comprehensive capital allocation strategy led by M&A, in the third quarter of 2024 Ingersoll Rand deployed $15 million to M&A. Ingersoll Rand also closed on multiple acquisitions during the month of October, including:

• Air Power Systems Co., LLC, a leader in the design and manufacturing of fluid power systems for mobile transport equipment expanding Ingersoll Rand’s leading position in the dry and liquid blower and vacuum markets.
• Blutek s.r.l., is a leader in the design and manufacturing of oil-free and lubricated screw-scroll compressors and complete skids for instrument air and nitrogen generation.
• UT Pumps & Systems Private Limited, a leading Indian manufacturer of screw pumps and triplex plunger pumps primarily focused on high-growth, sustainable end markets.
• Penn Valley Pump, a leading manufacturer of unique positive displacement pumps with its Double Disc Pump™ technology for use in the municipal, industrial, chemical and food industries.

We believe that the execution of the Company’s bolt-on acquisition strategy continues to enhance its durable financial profile by serving high-growth, sustainable end markets.

The Company also returned approximately $71 million to shareholders through $63 million in share repurchases and $8 million through its quarterly dividend payment in the third quarter.

2024 Guidance

Ingersoll Rand is updating its guidance for full-year 2024 Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EPS ranges.

Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures related to full-year 2024 guidance have not been provided due to the unreasonable efforts it would take to provide such reconciliations due to the high variability, complexity and uncertainty with respect to forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations, including net income (loss) and adjustments that could be made for acquisitions-related expenses, restructuring and other business transformation costs, gains or losses on foreign currency exchange and the timing and magnitude of other amounts in the reconciliation of historic numbers. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could have a potentially unpredictable, and potentially significant, impact on our future GAAP financial results.

Non-U.S. GAAP Measures of Financial Performance

In addition to consolidated GAAP financial measures, Ingersoll Rand reviews various non-GAAP financial measures, including “Organic Revenue Growth/(Decline),” “Adjusted EBITDA,” “Adjusted EBITDA margin,” “Adjusted Net Income,” “Adjusted Diluted EPS,” “Free Cash Flow” and “Free Cash Flow Margin.”

Ingersoll Rand believes Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Diluted EPS are helpful supplemental measures to assist management and investors in evaluating the Company’s operating results as they exclude certain items that are unusual in nature or whose fluctuation from period to period do not necessarily correspond to changes in the operations of Ingersoll Rand’s business. Ingersoll Rand believes Organic Revenue Growth/(Decline) is helpful supplemental measure to assist management and investors in evaluating the Company’s operating results as it excludes the impact of foreign currency and acquisitions on revenue growth. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and certain non-cash, non-recurring and other adjustment items. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Revenue. Adjusted Net Income is defined as net income including interest, depreciation and amortization of non-acquisition related intangible assets and excluding other items used to calculate Adjusted EBITDA and further adjusted for the tax effect of these exclusions. Organic Revenue Growth/(Decline) is defined as As Reported Revenue growth less the impacts of Foreign Currency and Acquisitions. Ingersoll Rand believes that the adjustments applied in presenting Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income are appropriate to provide additional information to investors about certain material non-cash items and about non-recurring items that the Company does not expect to continue at the same level in the future. Adjusted Diluted EPS is defined as Adjusted Net Income divided by Adjusted Diluted Average Shares Outstanding. Incrementals/Decrementals are defined as the change in Adjusted EBITDA versus the prior year period divided by the change in revenue versus the prior year period.

Ingersoll Rand uses Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Margin to review the liquidity of its operations. Ingersoll Rand measures Free Cash Flow as cash flows from operating activities less capital expenditures. Free Cash Flow Margin is defined as Free Cash Flow divided by Revenue. Ingersoll Rand believes Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Margin are useful supplemental financial measures for management and investors in assessing the Company’s ability to pursue business opportunities and investments and to service its debt. Free Cash Flow is not a measure of our liquidity under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities.

Management and Ingersoll Rand’s board of directors regularly use these measures as tools in evaluating the Company’s operating and financial performance and in establishing discretionary annual compensation. Such measures are provided in addition to and should not be considered to be a substitute for, or superior to, the comparable measures under GAAP. In addition, Ingersoll Rand believes that Organic Revenue Growth/(Decline), Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Incrementals/Decrementals, Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Margin are frequently used by investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of issuers, many of which also present Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Margin when reporting their results in an effort to facilitate an understanding of their operating and financial results and liquidity.

Organic Revenue Growth/(Decline), Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Margin should not be considered as alternatives to revenue growth, net income, diluted earnings per share or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, or as alternatives to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. Organic Revenue Growth/(Decline), Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Margin have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider such measures either in isolation or as substitutes for analyzing Ingersoll Rand’s results as reported under GAAP.

Reconciliations of Organic Revenue Growth/(Decline), Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Margin to their most comparable U.S. GAAP financial metrics for historical periods are presented in the tables below.

Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures related to full-year 2024 guidance have not been provided due to the unreasonable efforts it would take to provide such reconciliations due to the high variability, complexity and uncertainty with respect to forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations, including net income (loss) and adjustments that could be made for acquisitions-related expenses, restructuring and other business transformation costs, gains or losses on foreign currency exchange and the timing and magnitude of other amounts in the reconciliation of historic numbers. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could have a potentially unpredictable, and potentially significant, impact on our future GAAP financial results.
