Net Sales

Third quarter 2022 sales of $824.0 million reflected a 16 percent increase compared with the prior year period (+15 percent organic, +3 percent acquisitions/divestitures, +3 percent impact from the exit of a COVID-19 testing application and -5 percent foreign currency translation).

Gross Margin

Third quarter 2022 gross margin of 46.3 percent increased 250 basis points compared with the prior year period primarily due to higher volume leverage and favorable price/cost as well as the acceleration of previously deferred revenue related to the exit of a COVID-19 testing application, partially offset by higher employee-related costs. Additionally, the prior year period was unfavorably impacted by the fair value inventory step-up charge related to the acquisition of Airtech Group, Inc., US Valve Corporation and related entities ("Airtech") in June 2021. Adjusted gross margin, which excludes the acceleration of previously deferred revenue and fair value inventory step-up charges, increased 10 basis points compared with the prior year period.

Operating Margin

Third quarter 2022 operating margin of 24.5 percent increased 190 basis points compared with the prior year period due to the drivers discussed above, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of the impairment charge related to the exit of a COVID-19 testing application as well as higher discretionary spending and resource investments. Additionally, the prior year period included higher restructuring costs. Adjusted operating margin, which excludes fair value inventory step-up charges, restructuring expenses and asset impairments and the net impact from the exit of a COVID-19 testing application, increased 60 basis points. Incremental amortization of $2.3 million related to the acquisitions of Nexsight, LLC and its businesses Envirosight, WinCan, MyTana and Pipeline Renewal Technologies ("Nexsight") in February 2022 and KZ CO. ("KZValve") in May 2022 unfavorably impacted adjusted operating margin by 30 basis points in third quarter 2022.

Net Income Attributable to IDEX

Third quarter 2022 net income attributable to IDEX increased $63.0 million to $178.7 million, which resulted in EPS attributable to IDEX of $2.36 per share. The third quarter 2022 effective tax rate of 21.8 percent decreased compared to the prior year period effective tax rate of 23.4 percent primarily due to the tax benefits realized with the sale of Knight LLC ("Knight"). Adjusted EPS attributable to IDEX, which reflects the impact of non-GAAP adjustments, net of related taxes, was $2.14 per share, an increase of 35 cents per share, or 19.6 percent, from the prior year period.

Cash Flow

Third quarter 2022 cash from operations of $198.1 million was 110.9 percent of net income attributable to IDEX and up 26.5 percent compared with the prior year period primarily due to higher earnings. Third quarter 2022 free cash flow of $181.8 million was 112.3 percent of adjusted net income attributable to IDEX. Free cash flow as a percent of adjusted net income attributable to IDEX reflects the impact of excluding acquisition-related intangible asset amortization, net of related taxes, from adjusted net income attributable to IDEX for all periods presented.

• Third quarter 2022 operating margin was 30.7 percent, up 320 basis points compared with the prior year period.

• Third quarter 2022 operating margin was 24.8 percent, up 150 basis points compared with the prior year period primarily due to the $9.1 million fair value inventory step-up charge related to the Airtech acquisition in the prior year period that did not reoccur in 2022. Additionally, higher volume leverage and favorable price/cost were more than offset by lower productivity, the dilutive impact from the exit of a COVID-19 testing application and increases in employee-related costs, discretionary spending and resource investments. Adjusted operating margin, which excludes the prior year period impact of fair value inventory step-up charges and restructuring costs as well as the current year period net impact from the exit of a COVID-19 testing application, decreased 70 basis points.

• Third quarter 2022 operating margin was 25.3 percent, up 70 basis points compared with the prior year period primarily due to higher volume, partially offset by higher employee-related costs and unfavorable price/cost due to long-term original equipment manufacturer contracts.

Corporate Costs

Corporate costs included in operating income were $21.5 million in the third quarter of 2022, an increase of $4.2 million over the prior year period, primarily due to higher acquisition, discretionary and employee-related costs. Corporate costs included in adjusted operating income, which excludes the prior year period impact of restructuring costs, net of a Corporate transaction indemnity, increased by $4.5 million.

Acquisition

On September 13, 2022, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Muon B.V. and its subsidiaries ("Muon Group") for cash consideration of €700.0 million, subject to customary post-closing adjustments. Muon Group, based in the Netherlands, manufactures highly precise flow paths in a variety of materials that enable the movement of various liquids and gases in critical applications for medical, semiconductor, food processing, digital printing and filtration technologies. Muon Group will expand upon the Company’s growing platform of precision technology businesses in the Health & Science Technologies ("HST") segment with its unique technology and product solutions for similar end-customers. With annual sales of approximately €140.0 million, Muon Group will be part of the Company’s Scientific Fluidics & Optics reporting unit within the HST segment. The Company expects to close the transaction by the end of the fourth quarter of 2022, subject to regulatory approval and customary closing conditions.

Divestiture

On September 9, 2022, the Company completed the sale of Knight for proceeds of $49.4 million, net of cash remitted, resulting in a pre-tax gain on the sale of $34.8 million. The results of Knight were reported within the Fluid & Metering Technologies ("FMT") segment.

Exit of a COVID-19 Testing Application

In the second quarter of 2020, the Company engaged in the development of a COVID-19 testing application with a customer at one of its businesses in the HST segment. As part of this contract, the customer fully funded the $28.7 million investment needed to complete the development and production of microfluidic cartridges during 2020 and 2021. The costs incurred by the Company were primarily recorded as Property, plant & equipment and were being depreciated over the expected life of the assets, while the reimbursement was recorded as Deferred revenue and was being recognized as units were shipped.

In the third quarter of 2022, the Company was informed by the customer of its decision to discontinue further investment in commercializing its COVID-19 testing application, resulting in an impairment charge of $16.8 million and an acceleration of previously deferred revenue of $17.9 million related to units that are no longer expected to be shipped for a net operating income impact of $1.1 million.

Three and nine month data also includes the results of Knight (September 2022) in the FMT segment through the date of disposition. Nine month data also includes the results of CiDRA Precision Services (March 2021) in the HST segment through the date of disposition.
(b)	Segment operating income excludes unallocated corporate operating expenses which are included in Corporate Office and Eliminations.
(c)	These are non-GAAP financial measures. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, see the reconciliation tables below.
(d)	Depreciation and amortization exclude amortization of debt issuance costs.

Non-GAAP Measures of Financial Performance

The Company prepares its public financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The Company supplements certain GAAP financial performance metrics with non-GAAP financial performance metrics. Management believes these non-GAAP financial performance metrics provide investors with greater insight, transparency and a more comprehensive understanding of the financial information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making because certain of these adjusted metrics exclude items not reflective of ongoing operations, such as fair value inventory step-up charges, restructuring expenses and asset impairments, the impact from the exit of a COVID-19 testing application, the gain on sale of a business, gains on sales of assets, the loss on early debt redemption, the noncash loss related to the termination of the U.S. pension plan, the impact of the settlement for a Corporate transaction indemnity and acquisition-related intangible asset amortization. Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial performance metrics to their most comparable GAAP financial performance metrics are defined and presented below and should not be considered a substitute for, nor superior to, the financial data prepared in accordance with GAAP. Due to rounding, numbers presented throughout this and other documents may not add up or recalculate precisely. There were no adjustments to GAAP financial performance metrics other than the items noted below.

• Organic orders and sales are calculated excluding amounts from acquired or divested businesses during the first twelve months of ownership or prior to divestiture, the impact of foreign currency translation and the impact from the exit of a COVID-19 testing application.

• Adjusted net sales is calculated as net sales less the acceleration of previously deferred revenue related to the exit of a COVID-19 testing application.

• Adjusted gross profit is calculated as gross profit less the impact from the exit of a COVID-19 testing application plus fair value inventory step-up charges.

• Adjusted gross margin is calculated as adjusted gross profit divided by adjusted net sales.

• Adjusted operating income is calculated as operating income plus fair value inventory step-up charges plus restructuring expenses and asset impairments less the net impact from the exit of a COVID-19 testing application plus the impact of the settlement for a Corporate transaction indemnity.

• Adjusted operating margin is calculated as adjusted operating income divided by adjusted net sales.

• Adjusted net income attributable to IDEX is calculated as net income attributable to IDEX plus restructuring expenses and asset impairments plus fair value inventory step-up charges less the net impact from the exit of a COVID-19 testing application less the gain on sale of a business less gains on sales of assets plus the impact of the settlement for a Corporate transaction indemnity plus the loss on early debt redemption plus the noncash loss related to the termination of the U.S. pension plan plus acquisition-related intangible asset amortization, all net of the statutory tax expense or benefit.

• Adjusted EPS attributable to IDEX is calculated as adjusted net income attributable to IDEX divided by the diluted weighted average shares outstanding.

• EBITDA is calculated as net income plus interest expense plus provision for income taxes plus depreciation and amortization. The Company reconciles EBITDA to net income on a consolidated basis as IDEX does not allocate consolidated interest expense or consolidated provision for income taxes to its segments.

• EBITDA interest coverage is calculated as EBITDA divided by consolidated interest expense.

• Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as EBITDA plus fair value inventory step-up charges plus restructuring expenses and asset impairments less the net impact from the exit of a COVID-19 testing application plus the impact of the settlement for a Corporate transaction indemnity less the gain on sale of a business less gains on sales of assets plus the loss on early debt redemption plus the noncash loss related to the termination of the U.S. pension plan.

• Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as adjusted EBITDA divided by adjusted net sales.

• Adjusted EBITDA interest coverage is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by consolidated interest expense.

• Free cash flow is calculated as cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditures.
