New Fortive: A Simpler Company with Clear Strategy to Accelerate Value Creation
Following completion of the spin-off, Fortive will emerge as a premier company, with leading positions in industrial and healthcare operations, poised to accelerate profitable growth and drive value creation through:
- Simplification. Fortive’s ten iconic market-leading brands all delivering safety and productivity solutions to customers with a focus on differentiated products, customer experience and recurring revenues resulting in premier gross margins, profit margins and FCF profile as demonstrated over the last 5 years.
- Poised for acceleration. Fortive’s strategically advantaged businesses – with high recurring revenues and diverse end market and attractive geographic exposures – will benefit from alignment to favorable secular tailwinds and strong operating leverage, enhancing its more durable growth and profitability profile.
- Fortive Business System – amplified to unlock faster profitable growth. Leveraging the power of FBS, infused with AI and emerging technologies, Fortive will increase its innovation velocity, expand in high growth markets and regions, and increase recurring customer value to accelerate organic growth.
- Disciplined capital allocation: Fortive is committed to a capital allocation strategy focused on amplifying shareholder returns over the medium-term by balancing share repurchases, M&A with a bias for bolt-on acquisitions, and a regular, growing dividend.
- Purpose-built team for accelerated performance. The Fortive leadership team and organization is confident and energized, with a clear strategy and strong culture of continuous improvement and dedication to FBS, poised to deliver accelerated shareholder returns.
James Lico, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve built at Fortive, including our strong culture of FBS and solid foundation for the future. As Fortive and Ralliant begin their journeys as independent, focused companies, I’m excited about what lies ahead. Today’s investor day presentations highlight each company’s strategic vision and investment potential. I have full confidence in Olumide’s leadership of Fortive and the experienced team driving its next chapter of enduring value creation.”
