We have a healthy balance sheet and will continue to put our capital to work."

Net Sales

Second quarter 2022 sales of $796.1 million reflected a 16 percent increase compared with the prior year period (+12 percent organic, +7 percent acquisitions and -3 percent foreign currency translation).

Gross Margin

Second quarter 2022 gross margin of 44.8 percent increased 20 basis points compared with the prior year period primarily due to higher volume leverage and strong operational productivity together with favorable price/cost, partially offset by higher employee-related costs. Additionally, fair value inventory step-up charges were higher in the prior year period. Adjusted gross margin, which excludes the fair value inventory step-up charges, was flat compared with the prior year period.

Operating Margin

Second quarter 2022 operating margin of 23.4 percent increased 30 basis points compared with the prior year period due to the drivers discussed above, partially offset by higher discretionary spending and resource investments. Additionally, the prior year period included a charge related to recording a contingent reserve for a Corporate transaction indemnity as well as higher restructuring costs and fair value inventory step-up charges. Adjusted operating margin, which excludes restructuring costs, fair value inventory step-up charges and the Corporate transaction indemnity, decreased 60 basis points. Incremental amortization of $5.9 million related to the Airtech, Nexsight and KZValve acquisitions unfavorably impacted adjusted operating margin by 80 basis points in second quarter 2022.

Net Income Attributable to IDEX

Second quarter 2022 net income attributable to IDEX increased $36.0 million to $138.2 million, which resulted in EPS attributable to IDEX of $1.81 per share. The second quarter 2022 effective tax rate of 22.1 percent increased compared to the prior year period effective tax rate of 21.3 percent due to a decrease in the excess tax benefits related to share-based compensation. Adjusted EPS attributable to IDEX, which reflects the impact of non-GAAP adjustments, net of related taxes, was $2.02 per share, an increase of 27 cents per share, or 15.4 percent, from the prior year period.

Cash Flow

Second quarter 2022 cash from operations of $112.3 million was down 17.6 percent compared with the prior year period primarily due to increases in working capital, partially offset by higher earnings. Accounts receivable increased as a result of higher volume and inventories increased to support production amid supply chain difficulties. Second quarter 2022 free cash flow of $96.7 million was 63.0 percent of adjusted net income attributable to IDEX. Free cash flow as a percent of adjusted net income attributable to IDEX now 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.

• Second quarter 2022 operating margin was 23.3 percent, down 330 basis points compared with the prior year period primarily due to higher employee-related costs and discretionary spending as well as compressed price/cost due to long-term original equipment manufacturer contracts, partially offset by higher volume. Adjusted operating margin, which excludes restructuring costs, decreased 280 basis points.

Corporate Costs

Corporate costs included in operating income were $22.7 million in the second quarter of 2022, a decrease of $1.3 million over the prior year period, primarily due to the Corporate transaction indemnity and restructuring costs recorded in 2021 that did not reoccur in 2022, partially offset by higher variable compensation expenses. Corporate costs included in adjusted operating income, which excludes restructuring costs and the Corporate transaction indemnity, increased by $3.3 million.

Acquisitions

On May 2, 2022, the Company acquired KZ CO. ("KZValve"). KZValve is a leading manufacturer of electric valves and controllers used primarily in agricultural applications. KZValve will augment and expand IDEX's agricultural portfolio, complementing Banjo's current fluid management solutions for these applications. Headquartered in Greenwood, Nebraska, KZValve operates in the Company’s Agriculture reporting unit within the Fluid & Metering Technologies ("FMT") segment. KZValve was acquired for cash consideration of $120.2 million. The entire purchase was funded with cash on hand.

(a)	Three and six month data include the results of the ABEL acquisition (March 2021), the Nexsight acquisition (February 2022) and the KZValve acquisition (May 2022) in the FMT segment and the Airtech acquisition (June 2021) in the Health & Science Technologies ("HST") segment from the date of acquisition. Six 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, gains on sales of assets, the loss on early debt redemption, the noncash loss related to the termination of the U.S. pension plan, a charge related to recording a contingent reserve 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 and the impact of foreign currency translation.
• Adjusted gross profit is calculated as gross profit plus fair value inventory step-up charges.
• Adjusted gross margin is calculated as adjusted gross profit divided by net sales.
• Adjusted operating income is calculated as operating income plus fair value inventory step-up charges plus restructuring expenses and asset impairments plus a charge related to recording a contingent reserve for a Corporate transaction indemnity.
• Adjusted operating margin is calculated as adjusted operating income divided by net sales.
• Adjusted net income attributable to IDEX is calculated as net income attributable to IDEX plus fair value inventory step-up charges plus restructuring expenses and asset impairments less gains on sales of assets plus a charge related to recording a contingent reserve 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 gains on sales of assets plus a charge related to recording a contingent reserve 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.
• Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as adjusted EBITDA divided by 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.
