2023 Outlook

JBT is largely reiterating its full year 2023 guidance and continues to expect that margins will approach pre-pandemic levels.

For the full year 2023, FoodTech year-over-year revenue growth is estimated to be 5 - 9 percent, comprised of 1 - 4 percent from organic growth and 4 - 5 percent from acquisitions.

(3) Beginning in the second quarter of 2022, we made a change to the adjusted operating earnings and adjusted net income measures to exclude the impact of last-in first-out (“LIFO”) expense or benefit because it reduces volatility that is not reflective of our operations, and allows for better comparability to our peers. Prior year adjusted operating earnings and adjusted net income figures have been revised to align with this change in presentation.
(4) Impact on tax provision was calculated using the enacted rate for the relevant jurisdiction for each quarter shown.
The above table reports adjusted income from continuing operations and adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, which are non-GAAP financial measures. We use these measures internally to make operating decisions and for the planning and forecasting of future periods, and therefore provide this information to investors because we believe it allows more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of our ongoing operating results, without the fluctuations in the amount of certain costs that do not reflect our underlying operating results.

We believe that this measure provides to investors a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by management in evaluating the performance of its segment operations.
