In Q2, we began to realize these savings with $3 million of savings in the quarter, and we are on track to deliver $10 to $12 million of in-year savings in 2026.

Speaker #1: In Q2, we began to realize these savings. With 3 million dollars of savings in the quarter, and we are on track to deliver 10 to 12 million of in-year savings in 2026.

Speaker #1: Combined with a strong baseline incremental margin, we expect the enterprise productivity program to contribute to approximately 50% incremental adjusted EBITDA margins through 2028. This level of incremental margins assumes an organic revenue growth framework of approximately 5% in 2027 and 2028.

Neill Reynolds: Combined with a strong baseline incremental margin, we expect the enterprise productivity program to contribute to approximately 50% incremental adjusted EBITDA margins through 2028. This level of incremental margins assumes an organic revenue growth framework of approximately 5% in 2027 and 2028. This framework would lead us to deliver the midpoint of our through-cycle adjusted EBITDA margin target range of low to mid-20s by 2028. However, we are not providing guidance for 2027 or 2028 at this time. Turning to our balance sheet and cash flow on slide 16. We ended the quarter with $271 million in cash and cash equivalents and $1.15 billion of debt. With $99 million of free cash flow in the quarter, our cash generation is funding our capital allocation priorities and at the same time has enabled us to maintain net leverage of approximately 1.9 times within our long-term target range.

Speaker #1: With 99 million of free cash flow in the quarter, our cash generation is funding our capital allocation priorities and at the same time has enabled us to maintain net leverage of approximately 1.9 times, within our long-term target range.

Speaker #1: We returned $161 million of capital to shareholders through the first half of 2026, mostly driven by $150 million of share repurchases, inclusive of our completed $100 million accelerated share repurchase program.

Neill Reynolds: We returned $161 million of capital to shareholders through H1 2026, mostly driven by $150 million of share repurchases, inclusive of our completed $100 million accelerated share repurchase program. This resulted in the repurchase of 2.8 million shares at an average price of $54.74 per share. Shifting to slide 17 to cover our expectations for Q3 and the full year. In Q3, we expect revenue of $570 to 590 million. Adjusted EBITDA margin is expected to be between 20.5% and 21.5%, with year-over-year normalized margin expansion driven by operating leverage on higher revenue and savings from our enterprise productivity program. Adjusted EPS is expected to be between $0.72 and $0.78, driven by revenue growth, margin expansion, and a reduction in share count. We expect Q3 weighted average diluted shares outstanding of approximately 112 million.

Speaker #1: This resulted in the repurchase of 2.8 million shares at an average price of $54.74 per share. Shifting to slide 17 to cover our expectations for the third quarter and the full year.

Speaker #1: In Q3, we expect revenue of 570 to 590 million. Adjusted EBITDA margin is expected to be between 20.5% and 21.5%, with year-over-year normalized margin expansion driven by operating leverage on higher revenue and savings from our enterprise productivity program.

Speaker #1: Adjusted EPS is expected to be between 72 cents and 78 cents, driven by revenue growth, margin expansion, and a reduction in share count. We expect Q3 weighted average diluted shares outstanding of approximately 112 million.

Speaker #1: Based on our Q2 performance and increased confidence in continued customer demand in our short-cycle businesses in the second half, we are raising our full year 2026 guidance.

Neill Reynolds: Based on our Q2 performance and increased confidence in continued customer demand in our short-cycle businesses in H2, we are raising our full year 2026 guidance. We now expect full-year revenue of $2.25 billion to $2.3 billion, adjusted EBITDA margins of 20% to 21%, and adjusted EPS of $2.76 to $2.90. This is inclusive of a small benefit from tariff refunds received through Q2 that will be recognized in cost of sales. From a corporate perspective, we now expect corporate and other expenses in H2 to be approximately $20 to 23 million per quarter, an increase of about $5 to 6 million per quarter from our prior estimates. This is driven by implementation costs associated with the enterprise productivity program, a rebalancing of support function activities identified within the EPP program that results in net savings, but shifts some costs from the segments into corporate.

Speaker #1: We now expect full year revenue of 2.25 billion to 2.3 billion dollars, adjusted EBITDA margins of 20 to 21 percent, and adjusted EPS of $2.76 to $2.90.

Speaker #1: Lastly, higher variable compensation due to an increase in expected performance in the year. Finally, I want to provide an update on our capital allocation priorities on slide 18.

Neill Reynolds: Lastly, higher variable compensation due to an increase in expected performance in the year. Finally, I want to provide an update on our capital allocation priorities on slide 18. Our top priority remains organic reinvestment. We are enabling organic growth by leveraging RBS everywhere and augmenting it with AI-driven productivity. Second is returning capital to shareholders. As mentioned earlier, year to date, we have returned $161 million to shareholders through a combination of share repurchases, including our completed ASR and dividends. We continue to target share repurchases of approximately 50% of free cash flow over time. We have already repurchased approximately 50% of anticipated 2026 free cash flow, and will evaluate opportunistically against other uses of capital for the remainder of this year. Our last priority is focused tuck-in acquisitions. We currently have a robust pipeline of attractive tuck-in acquisition targets.

Speaker #1: Our last priority is focused tuck-in acquisitions. We currently have a robust pipeline of attractive tuck-in acquisition targets. We will continue to target double-digit ROIC by year three for these acquisitions.

Neill Reynolds: We will continue to target double-digit ROIC by year three for these acquisitions. We are committed to balancing these capital allocation priorities against our target cash balances and our long-term net leverage targets of 1.5 to 2 times adjusted EBITDA. With that, I'll turn it back to Tami to wrap before opening it up for questions.

Speaker #1: We are committed to balancing these capital allocation priorities against our target cash balances and our long-term net leverage target of 1.5 to 2 times adjusted EBITDA.

Speaker #1: With that, I'll turn it back to Tammy to wrap before opening it up for questions.

Speaker #2: One year into our journey as an independent company, my confidence in what we can achieve has never been stronger. I'll close with a few key takeaways.

Tami Newcombe: One year into our journey as an independent company, my confidence in what we can achieve has never been stronger. I'll close with a few key takeaways. First, our profitable growth strategy is working. We continue to capitalize on attractive secular growth opportunities, and the Ralliant Business System is how we drive disciplined execution across the enterprise. Second, we're making meaningful progress on margin expansion through the combination of strong incremental margins and the execution of our enterprise productivity program. Third, we remain confident in Ralliant's long-term value creation potential. Strong free cash flow generation is enabling us to execute our capital allocation priorities, including reinvestment in the business, returning capital to shareholders, and pursuing a robust pipeline of attractive tuck-in acquisitions. Finally, I want to thank our 7,000 team members from around the world. Their commitment, dedication, and relentless focus on customers are what make these results possible.

Speaker #3: One moment while we pull for questions. Our first question is from Krish Scheider, with Morgan Stanley. Please proceed.

Speaker #4: Thank you. I wanted to ask about test and measurement and specifically the diversified electronics. So we've seen a really nice acceleration there year to date after declines a year ago.

Chris Snyder: Thank you. I wanted to ask about Test & Measurement, and specifically the diversified electronics. We've seen a really nice acceleration there year to date after declines a year ago. I know you guys don't have a lot of visibility in the backlog. I think you guys said maybe only 90 days. I wanted to ask about how you think about the duration of this cycle, whether in the context of a typical upcycle for diversified electronics. Also thinking about all of the secular tailwinds that are coming through for that business. You highlighted a number of them. I think energy storage systems. We're seeing AI come through. Just whether it's conversations with investors, what you see in the future, how do you feel about the duration of strength there? Thank you.

Speaker #4: And I know you guys don't have a lot of visibility in the backlog. I think you guys said maybe only 90 you think about the duration of this cycle, whether in the context of a typical upcycle for diversified electronics but then also thinking about all of the secular tailwinds that are coming through for that business.

Speaker #4: You highlighted a number of them, I think, energy storage systems. We're seeing AI come through. So just whether it's conversations with investors, what you see in the future, how do you feel about the duration of strength there?

Speaker #4: Thank you.

Speaker #2: Okay, Chris, thanks for raising that question. And I'd start with what we know today. And we'll specifically talk about test and measurement. It's about 40% of the overall business.

Tami Newcombe: Hey, Chris. Thanks for raising that question. I'd start with what we know today, and we'll specifically talk about Test & Measurement. It's about 40% of the overall business. You had started with diversified electronics. That's about 20% where we've seen really strong growth the last two quarters. In the space, the Q2, headline last quarter was return to growth. This is the Q2 of really strong growth in T&M. Inherently, it is a 90 to 120-day short cycle business. We like the book-to-bill. We talked about 1.1 across both segments. In T&M, that's up over 1.2 right now. We do see some strength there. I spoke about the elevated demand in China. A lot of activity there in the H1, which is going to translate into some higher revenue in the H2, and that's an area we're still assessing.

Speaker #2: You had started with diversified electronics. It's about 20% where we've seen really strong growth the last two quarters. But in that in the space, the second quarter, headline last quarter was return to growth.

Speaker #2: This is the second quarter of really strong growth in T&M. Inherently, it is a 90 to 120 day short cycle business. But we like the book to build.

Speaker #2: We talked about 1.1 across both segments. In T&M, that's up over 1.2 right now. So we do see some strength there. I spoke about the elevated demand in China.

Speaker #2: A lot of activity there in the first half, which is going to translate into some higher revenue in the second half. And that's an area we're still assessing.

Speaker #2: Is this a build-out tied to AI and energy? More episodic or advent-driven? Or is that something that's going to drive some structural growth along the way?

Tami Newcombe: Is this a build-out tied to AI and energy, more episodic or event-driven, or is that something that's going to drive some structural growth along the way? Overall, we see strong first year kind of coming out of the downturn, and T&M is having a strong first year. Expect that to moderate in the second year if you look at history. Probably more mid-single digit coming out of a really strong first year.

Speaker #2: Overall, we see strong first year kind of coming out of the downturn in T&M is having a strong first year. Expect that to moderate in the second year if you look at history.

Speaker #2: Probably more mid-single-digit coming out of a really strong first year.

Speaker #4: Thank you, Tammy. I appreciate that. And then maybe if I could follow up on PAXI. So I think everybody appreciates there's a lot of demand in the world for the products that PAXI sells.

Chris Snyder: Thank you, Tami. I appreciate that. Maybe if I could follow up on PacSci. I think everybody appreciates there's a lot of demand in the world for the products that PacSci sells. I wanted to ask about capacity and just the ability for you guys to ramp there. Can you just maybe talk a little bit about some of the actions that you guys have taken to improve that supply chain and production capacity? I believe you guys maybe-- I think when you guys talk to mid-singles in the out years, I think it assumes maybe like low doubles for PacSci is kind of my understanding. If we do get these surge programs come through, is there ability to flex that up to something higher and meet that demand should it come through? Thank you.

Speaker #4: But I wanted to ask about capacity and just the ability for you guys to ramp there. So can you just maybe talk a little bit about some of the actions that you guys have taken to improve that supply chain and production capacity?

Speaker #4: And then I believe you guys maybe I think when you guys talk to mid-singles in the out years, I think it assumes maybe low doubles for PAXI is kind of my understanding.

Speaker #4: But if we do get these surge programs come through, is there ability to flex that up to something higher and meet that demand should it come through?

Speaker #4: Thank you.

Speaker #2: Yeah, thanks, Chris. The demand, we talked about remaining over a billion dollars of backlog in the defense business. And that's following a strong quarter that we had where we saw double-digit growth in Q2.

Tami Newcombe: Yeah, thanks, Chris. The demand, we talked about remaining over $1 billion of backlog in the defense business, and that's following a strong quarter that we had where we saw double-digit growth in Q2. A couple things that we're doing to continue to increase capacity, and this is an extension of what we've been doing over the last several years. We've doubled the throughput in our existing footprint. Now we've had the opportunity to create a center of excellence around electronics in our Ohio site. That's a place that we've begun investing and getting some help also from the government, as we are a critical supplier in many of the top priority munitions programs. That will take us eventually to a fourth site. The team's got good line of sight here out through 2030 in our capacity needs.

Speaker #2: A couple of things that we're doing to continue to increase capacity. And this is an extension of what we've been doing over the last several years.

Speaker #2: We've doubled the throughput in our existing footprint. Now we've had the opportunity to create a center of excellence around electronics in our Ohio site.

Speaker #2: That's a place that we've begun investing. And getting some help also from the government as we are a critical supplier in many of the top priority munitions programs.

Speaker #2: And that will take us eventually to a fourth site but the team's got good line of sight here out through 2030 in our capacity needs.

Speaker #2: I think the second part of your question is double-digit, could that be higher? We are actively working with our customers in the defense space on the programs there's a variety of scenarios as far as volume.

Tami Newcombe: I think the second part of your question is double digit, could that be higher? We are actively working with our customers in the defense space on the programs. There's a variety of scenarios as far as volume, and a variety of scenarios on timeframe. Of course, our customers are trying to line up their supply chains. When they have firm commitments there, we'll start to see orders which we'll represent in our backlog to you.

Speaker #2: And a variety of scenarios on time frame. Of course, our customers are trying to line up their supply chains and when they have firm commitments there, we'll start to see orders which will represent in our backlog to you.

Speaker #4: Thank you. I appreciate that.

Chris Snyder: Thank you. I appreciate that.

Speaker #3: Our next question is from Alexander Verga with Evercore ISI. Please proceed.

[Company Representative]: Our next question is from Alexander Virgo with Evercore ISI. Please proceed.

Operator: Our next question is from Alexander Virgo with Evercore ISI. Please proceed.

Speaker #4: Yeah, thanks very much. Good morning. I wondered if you could just dig a little bit into excuse me, into your utilities comments. And the Semi's comments.

Alexander Virgo: Yeah. Thanks very much. Good morning. I wondered if you could just dig a little bit into your utilities comments, and the semis comments. I guess the first question is just make sure I understand the clarifying point of the 4 percentage points of impact from the Middle East. That was in the utility segment, right? The underlying growth is more like 8, if that's correct, and therefore, how would you expect that to trend through the H2? Are you going to able to catch up on some of that? I appreciate that right now it's probably quite tough, but thinking about how that plays through in the rest of the year. On semicon, I just wanted to make sure, given the point regarding lapping the contract last year, the 8 to 12 guide in Q3 would imply quite a limited diff impact.

Speaker #4: So I guess the first question is just to understand, make sure I understand the clarificating point of the 4 percentage points of impacts from the Middle East.

Speaker #4: That was in the utility segment, right? So the underlying growth is more like 8, if that's correct. And therefore, how would you expect that to trend through the second half?

Alexander Virgo: The underlying growth is more like 8, if that's correct, and therefore, how would you expect that to trend through the H2? Are you going to able to catch up on some of that? I appreciate that right now it's probably quite tough, but thinking about how that plays through in the rest of the year. On semicon, I just wanted to make sure, given the point regarding lapping the contract last year, the 8 to 12 guide in Q3 would imply quite a limited diff impact.

Speaker #4: Are you going to be able to catch up on some of that? I appreciate that right now it's probably quite tough, but thinking about how that plays through in the rest of the year.

Speaker #4: And then on Semicon, I just wanted to make sure given the point regarding lapping the contract last year, the 8 to 12 guide in Q3 would imply quite limited impact and you obviously had 5 in Q2, 5% growth in Semicon in Q2.

Alexander Virgo: You obviously had 5 in Q2, 5% growth in semicon in Q2. Just again, wondering how that plays through in the very near term. Thank you.

Speaker #4: So just again, wondering how that plays through in the very near term. Thank you.

Speaker #2: Alex, I'll start with utilities. And utilities represents 14% or so of total company revenues. And the demand has continued to be strong. Recognize Q2 is our largest orders and our largest revenue quarter historically.

Tami Newcombe: Alex, I'll start with utilities. Utilities represents 14% or so of total company revenues, and the demand has continued to be strong. Recognize Q2 is our largest orders and our largest revenue quarter historically. We grew from Q1 to Q2, we grew revenue about 11% quarter over quarter. Still, I called out the 4% year over year was below our expectations, and it was a handful of customers in Middle East that asked us to adjust timing on shipments for them, which we have done. That's the 4-point headwind that I called out. We expect, both from shipments that we're catching up on in the H2, as well as some of the capacity that we're bringing online. At that site, we've brought on additional ships.

Speaker #2: We grew from Q1 to Q2. We grew revenue about 11% quarter over quarter. Still, I call doubt the 4% year-over-year was below our expectations.

Speaker #2: And it was a handful of customers in Middle East that asked us to adjust timing on shipments for them, which we have done. That's the 4-point headwind that I called out.

Speaker #2: We expect both from shipments that we're catching up on in the second half as well as some of the capacity that we're bringing online.

Speaker #2: At that site, we've brought on additional ships. We've also expanded some cells for additional capacity and expect that to move to double-digit revenue growth as we get into the second half.

Tami Newcombe: We've also expanded some cells for additional capacity and expect that to move to double-digit revenue growth as we get into the H2. That is your utilities question. You had a separate question around semi, and as a reminder, the semi end market for us is about 7% of overall company revenues. We did see 5% growth in this quarter, and the headwinds on the large deal we talked about in the comps was a little favorable for us this quarter, not as much. That'll come back in the Q3.

Speaker #2: So that is your utilities question. You had a separate question around Semi. And as a reminder, this Semi end market for us is about 7% of overall company revenues.

Speaker #2: We did see 5% growth in this quarter. And the headwinds on the large deal we talked about in the comps was a little favorable for us this quarter, not as much.

Speaker #2: That'll come back in the third quarter.

Speaker #4: I guess that's sorry, Tommy. That's kind of what I was getting at. So the 5% in Q2 is an underlying number, but we're going to have to factor in headwinds in Q3 so that number will be lower.

Alexander Virgo: I guess, sorry, Tami. That's kind of what I was getting at. The 5% in Q2 is an underlying number, but we're going to have to factor in headwinds in Q3, so that number will be lower. Is that the right way to take that comment?

Speaker #4: Is that the right way to take that comment?

Speaker #2: Yeah. We have not given a specific number for Semiconductor. We have talked in the past that it's about a 10 million dollar headwind each quarter in our Semi end market.

Tami Newcombe: Yeah. We have not given a specific number for semiconductor. We have talked in the past that it's about a $10 million headwind each quarter in our semi-end market. It was less this quarter. It'll be below that this quarter in Q2, what we saw, and more than that in Q3. Give you a little direction.

Speaker #2: It was less this quarter. It'll be below that this quarter in Q2, what we saw. And more than that in Q3. A little direction.

Speaker #4: Yeah. And outside of that project, we've had some very solid growth numbers in Semi. As you'd expect. And we will see that, I think, a bit of a headwind in Q3 and it'll unlap itself in Q4.

Neill Reynolds: Yeah, outside of that project, we've had some very solid growth numbers in semi, as you'd expect. We will see that, I think a bit of a headwind in Q3, and it'll unlap itself in Q4. Q4 should be clean.

Speaker #4: So Q4 should be clean. Perfect. Thank you very much.

Alexander Virgo: Perfect. Thank you very much.

Speaker #3: Our next question is from Joe Jordano with TD Cowan. Please proceed.

[Company Representative]: Our next question is from Joe Giordano with TD Cowen. Please proceed.

Operator: Our next question is from Joe Giordano with TD Cowen. Please proceed.

Speaker #5: Hey, guys. Good morning. I wanted to push on test and measurement a little bit, too. I understand the desire to keep us all in check to some extent, but when I look at this, it just went positive last quarter.

Joe Giordano: Hey, guys. Good morning.

Tami Newcombe: Hey, Joe.

Joe Giordano: I wanted to push on Test & Measurement a little bit too. I understand the desire to keep us all in check to some extent. When I look at this, it just went positive last quarter. It grew very nicely in Q2, and modeling somewhat meaningful decel in H2 and into next year feels very conservative. When things just start to inflect, how long until you typically see a peak growth number in a business like that historically?

Speaker #5: It grew very nicely into Q. And modeling kind of somewhat meaningful decel in the second half and into next year feels very conservative. How long do these when things just start to inflect, how long until you typically see a peak growth number in a business like that historically?

Speaker #2: Yeah, Joe, maybe I'll start with what we're seeing today in the demand environment. And I'll start with the change from Q1 to Q2. So we increased our full-year outlook at midpoint, 60 million dollars, 20 million of that was what we saw in Q2.

Tami Newcombe: Joe, maybe I'll start with what we're seeing today in the demand environment, and I'll start with the change from Q1 to Q2. We increased our full year outlook at midpoint $60 million. $20 million of that was what we saw in Q2. The point of the raise is really around our industrial end markets. We've just seen robust demand there. It was broad-based across all regions, and double-digit in both of the other and industrial end markets. Those are strong. Grid and defense, we think we've got pretty long sight on those secular trends in the high singles and probably low double-digit for defense. At T&M, this is the first year of recovery, and what's embedded in the full-year guide is double-digit on Test & Measurement this year. I started to allude to this in the first question.

Speaker #2: And the point of the raise is really around our industrial end markets. We've just seen robust demand there. It was broad-based across all regions.

Speaker #2: And double-digit in both of the other and industrial end markets. So those are strong. Grid and defense, we think those we've got pretty long sight on those secular trends in the high singles and probably low double-digit for defense.

Speaker #2: TNM, this is the first year of recovery. And what's embedded in the full-year guide is double-digit on test and measurement this year. And if I started to allude to this in the first question, in a second year, that moderates to the low single, mid-single type range.

Tami Newcombe: In a second year, that moderates to the low-single, mid-single type range. That's what we've seen historically. We also have not seen historically industrials be in the double-digit. I don't know the duration of that. As I said, we look at about 90 to 120 days. We're going to assess that, keep our eyes on it in H2. Probably the last one, I spoke about this, but it goes in what we're keeping track of. It's what's happening in China around T&M. Is that going to be something that continues, or is that going to be episodic for us here as they are funding investments in AI data center and energy? Those are the things we're keeping our eye on as we move into Q3 and Q4.

Speaker #2: That's what we've seen historically. We also have not seen historically industrials be in the double-digit. So I don't know the duration of that. As I said, we look at about 90 to 120 days.

Speaker #2: We're going to assess that, keep our eyes on it in the second half. And probably the last one, I spoke about this, but it goes in the what we're keeping track of.

Speaker #2: It's what's happening in China, around TNM. Is that going to be something that continues or is that going to be episodic force here as they are funding investments in AI data center and energy?

Speaker #2: So those are the things we're keeping our eye on as we move into the Q3 and Q4.

Speaker #4: Yeah, Joe, let me just add to that a little bit. So if you take a step back for the 26 guide and we talked about 9 to 11 percent kind of organic growth.

Neill Reynolds: Yeah, Joe, let me just add to that a little bit. If you take a step back for the 2026 guide, we talked about 9% to 11% kind of organic growth. It is double-digit at the midpoint. Test & Measurement is either at or above the high end of that, with Sensors and Safety Systems being just down kind of towards the lower end of that. I think both segments growing strongly. That is a strong kind of recovery year for Test & Measurement coming off a tough year in terms of the cycle. The second thing I would add is last time we talked, we talked about having seasonality in the business, and we had guided 49% of revenue in H1 of the year and 51% in H2 of the year.

Speaker #4: So, this is double-digit at the midpoint. And test and measurement, these are either at or above the high end of that, with sensors and safety systems being just down toward the lower end of that.

Speaker #4: So I think both segments are growing strongly, and this is a strong kind of recovery year for test and measurement, coming off a tough year.

Speaker #4: So in terms of the cycle. And the second thing I would add is last time we talked, we talked about having seasonality in the business.

Speaker #4: And we had guided 49% of revenue in the first half of the year and 51% in the second half of the year. When you look at this guidance range, and what we projected here, that'd be about 48% in the first half of revenue and 52% of revenue in the second half, which is pretty consistent with what we see seasonally normally.

Neill Reynolds: When you look at this guidance range and what we projected here, that'd be about 48% in H1 of revenue and 52% of revenue in H2, which is pretty consistent with what we see seasonally normally. I think when you start to frame up the pieces here, a lot of strength in Test & Measurement, I think at the higher end or above the high end of this range, as well as kind of framing that up with the normal seasonality that we see. I think that's a good solid place to be in right now.

Speaker #4: So I think when you start to frame up the pieces here, a lot of strengths in test and measurement, I think at the higher end or above the high end of this range, as well as kind of framing that up with a normal seasonality that we see, I think that's a good solid place to be in right now.

Speaker #5: And can you just give us a little bit more detail on the defense solution at sensors? I know you said it was favorable mixed this quarter on what programs were active, but how should we think about that for the rest of the year and into next year?

Joe Giordano: Can you just give us a little bit more detail on the defense solution at Sensors? I know you said it was favorable mix this quarter on what programs were active, but how should we think about that for the rest of the year and into next year?

Speaker #2: Yeah. The defense business is large programs. And our shipment timing is based on customer need. And we had a quarter here where it turns out the programs that ended up shipping for those customers, the margins were better than we had expected.

Tami Newcombe: Yeah. The defense business is large programs, and our shipment timing is based on customer need. We had a quarter here where it turns out the programs that ended up shipping for those customers, the margins were better than we had expected. Still expect the same degradation that we've talked about in the defense end market due to high volume programs that we're seeing in the future are our lower margin programs.

Speaker #2: Still expect the same degradation that we've talked about in the defense end market due to high volume programs that we're seeing in the future are our lower margin programs.

Speaker #4: Yeah. And I think if you take a step back and look at the overall sensors and safety systems segment, we were at the high 20s, over 29% this quarter.

Neill Reynolds: Yeah, I think if you take a step back and look at the overall Sensors and Safety Systems segment, we were at the high 20s, over 29% this quarter, based on that favorable mix. The other thing I'd add is the industrial benefit that we're seeing in terms of the pickup in industrials, those have very strong margins for us as we start to look forward. If you think about the segment, we will see some degradation in the margins related to defense, I think, over time, although it had a couple of, I think, better quarters here. I think, however, with the better performance we're seeing in industrial, we do expect the Sensors and Safety Systems segment to stay kind of at that high 20s level for the remainder of the year.

Speaker #4: Based on that favorable mix. The other thing I'd add is the industrial benefit that we're seeing in terms of the pickup in industrials, those have very strong margins for us as we start to look forward.

Speaker #4: So as you think about the segment, we will see some degradation in the margins related to defense, I think over time, although we've had a couple of, I think, better quarters here.

Speaker #4: I think, however, with the better performance we're seeing in industrial, we do expect the sensors and safety systems segment to stay kind of at that high 20s level for the remainder of the year.

Speaker #4: However, over time, given that those defense margins that we will see over time, we do expect to see that kind of revert back to kind of that mid to high 20s over the longer period.

Neill Reynolds: However, over time, given those defense margins that we will see over time, we do expect to see that kind of revert back to kind of that mid to high 20s over the longer period. I think for the remainder of the year, high 20s is a reasonable place to be at.

Speaker #4: But I think for the remainder of the year, high 20s is a reasonable place to be at.

Speaker #5: Thanks, Ed.

Joe Giordano: Thanks, Ed.

Speaker #1: Our next question is from Kevin Wilson with Truist Securities. Please proceed.

[Company Representative]: Our next question is from Kevin Wilson with Truist Securities. Please proceed.

Operator: Our next question is from Kevin Wilson with Truist Securities. Please proceed.

Speaker #6: Hey, good morning. Wanted to ask on capital allocation. Just how we're thinking about maybe opportunities for Tuck and M&A. Understanding it's your third of three priorities there.

Kevin Wilson: Hey, good morning. Wanted to ask on capital allocation, just how we're thinking about maybe opportunities for tuck-in M&A, understanding it's your third of three priorities there. Neill, I think you mentioned a robust pipeline of opportunities, which I think is new language on that front. Maybe just what are the areas we're looking at there, and just how we're thinking about that leg of the capital allocation strategy going forward. Thanks.

Speaker #6: Neil, I think you mentioned a robust pipeline of opportunities, which I think is new language on that front. So maybe just what are the areas we're looking at there?

Speaker #6: And just how we're thinking about that leg of the capital allocation strategy going forward. Thanks.

Speaker #4: Yeah, no, thanks. Thank you for the question. Yeah. So from a capital allocation perspective, look, we want to be disciplined in this as we are in terms of how we operate the business.

Neill Reynolds: Yeah, no. Thank you for the question. Yeah, from a capital allocation perspective, look, we want to be disciplined in this as we are in terms of how we operate the business. We talked about three things: investing in organic growth, returning cash to shareholders. We obviously completed the ASR this quarter, so we've given over $160 million back to shareholders, or plan to this year in the share buybacks and the dividends. That leaves us with number three, which is our kind of tuck-in acquisition strategy as you asked about. Look, we talked about 50% of free cash flow within a year going back to investors. I think we're more or less in that zone with what we've already done. Now we'll kind of focus our attention to that third one. Look, I think staying within the leverage is important.

Speaker #4: And we talked about three things. Organic growth, returning, investing in organic growth, returning cash to shareholders. We obviously completed the ASR this quarter. So we've given over 160 million back to shareholders or plan to this year, looking to share buybacks and the dividends.

Neill Reynolds: We obviously completed the ASR this quarter, so we've given over $160 million back to shareholders, or plan to this year in the share buybacks and the dividends. That leaves us with number three, which is our kind of tuck-in acquisition strategy as you asked about. Look, we talked about 50% of free cash flow within a year going back to investors. I think we're more or less in that zone with what we've already done. Now we'll kind of focus our attention to that third one. Look, I think staying within the leverage is important.

Speaker #4: So that leaves us with number three, which is our kind of tucking acquisition strategy. As you asked about. So look, we talked about 50% of free cash flow within a year, going back to investors.

Speaker #4: I think we're more or less in that zone. With what we've already done. So now we'll kind of focus our attention to that third one.

Speaker #4: And look, I think staying within the leverage is important. That one and a half to two turns leverage is important. We'll continue to look to manage within that.

Neill Reynolds: That one and a half to two turns leverage is important. We'll continue to look to manage within that. As we go through that list for tuck-in acquisitions, you can think of these as smaller deals that we're looking at. I like to think of it as supplementing or supporting our organic strategy, so things that really help us from either a technology perspective or a gap we may have somewhere that can fill those things in. That also give us a chance at very high returns. We want to see kind of a three-year ROIC at double-digit range. That's really what we're focused in on now. I think the team's done a nice job of identifying the target list that we're working through.

Speaker #4: And as we go through that list for tucking acquisitions, you can think of these as smaller deals that we're looking at, things that I like to think of it as supplementing or supporting our organic strategy.

Speaker #4: So things that really help us from either a technology perspective or a gap we may have somewhere that can fill those things in. But then also give us a chance at very high returns.

Speaker #4: We want to see kind of a three-year ROIC in the double-digit range, so that's really what we're focused on now. And I think the team's done a nice job of identifying the target list that we're working through.

Speaker #5: Thanks. And then I'm wondering if you could maybe flesh out the corporate costs. I appreciate some costs shifting from the segments to that corporate and other line.

Kevin Wilson: Thanks. I wonder if you could maybe flesh out the corporate costs. I appreciate some costs shifting from the segments to that corporate and other line. You're now assuming $20 to 23 million a quarter. I think that was closer to $13 million a quarter earlier. Some of that's EPP costs, variable comp. Maybe if you could just size the pieces there. I guess, should we expect that to normalize a bit in 2027 after most of the EPP cost actions are taken? Thanks.

Speaker #5: You're now assuming $20 to $23 million a quarter. I think that was closer to $13 million a quarter earlier. Some of that's EPP costs, variable comp.

Speaker #5: So maybe if you could just size the pieces there. And I guess will that, should we expect that to normalize a bit in 2027 after most of the EPP cost actions are taken?

Speaker #5: Thanks.

Speaker #4: Yeah, good question. So yeah, this is moving around a little bit. I think also as we're kind of getting our legs under us with the productivity program.

Neill Reynolds: Yeah, good question. This is moving around a little bit, I think also as we're kind of getting our legs under us with the productivity program. A couple things here. One is we did see a corporate cost of about $21 million in the quarter. That consists of standing up the EPP program office, as you mentioned. We've also centralized some costs where we moved costs from the segments into corporate. The reason we did that is because we think that provides us a more kind of focused kind of execution mechanism for how we drive the productivity program across the company. It's not just the EPP standup cost or the Enterprise Productivity Program standup cost, it's also a little bit of shift, right pocket, left pocket, so to speak, not an overall increase in cost.

Speaker #4: So a couple of things here. So one is we did see a corporate cost of about 21 million in the quarter. That consists of standing up the EPP program office as you mentioned.

Speaker #4: We've also centralized some costs where we moved costs from the segments into corporate. And the reason we did that is because we think that provides us a more kind of focused kind of execution mechanism for how we drive the productivity program across the company.

Speaker #4: So it's not just the EPP stand-up costs or the enterprise productivity program stand-up costs. It's also a little bit of shift right pocket, left pocket, so to speak.

Speaker #4: Not an overall increase in costs. And as you mentioned, some higher variable costs related to the better performance this year from a variable comp perspective.

Neill Reynolds: As you mentioned, some higher variable costs related to the better performance this year from a variable comp perspective. I think overall, we look to be in this 20 to 23 zone with those things in there. Look, I think some of this, as you look out over time, will come back to us. We also think that we'll drive significant savings and support the program over time. We'll continue to manage this and then manage it within the margin framework that we've provided and continue to do that going forward.

Speaker #4: So I think overall, we look to be in this 20 to 23 zone with those things in there. And look, I think some of this as you look out over time, we'll come back to us.

Speaker #4: We'll also think that we'll drive significant savings and support the program over time. So we'll continue to manage this and then manage it within the margin framework that we've provided and continue to do that going forward.

Speaker #5: Sounds good. Thanks, Neil.

Kevin Wilson: Sounds good. Thanks, Neill.

Speaker #4: Got it.

Neill Reynolds: Got it.

Speaker #1: Our next question is from Io Safino with Oppenheimer and Company. Please proceed.

[Company Representative]: Our next question is from Ian Zaffino with Oppenheimer and Company. Please proceed.

Operator: Our next question is from Ian Zaffino with Oppenheimer and Company. Please proceed.

Ian Zaffino: Hi, great. Thank you very much. Wanted to maybe drill down on T&M a little bit more. In the diversified electronics, what drove that growth? Because if I'm looking at Western Europe, I'm looking at China, they didn't grow to the extent that the whole segment grew. Just kind of trying to understand what drove all that strong growth. Thanks.

Speaker #7: Hi, Greg. Thank you very much. I want to maybe drill down on TNM a little bit more in the diversified electronics segment. What drove that growth, right?

Speaker #7: Because if I'm looking at Western Europe, I'm looking at China, they didn't grow to the extent that the whole segment grew. And so just kind of trying to understand what drove all that strong growth.

Speaker #7: Thanks.

Speaker #8: Hey, Andy. Thanks for the question. Diversified electronics is about 21% of overall revenue. And from a test and measurement standpoint, think of that as broad-based electronics.

Tami Newcombe: Hey, Ian. Thanks for the question. Diversified electronics is 21% or so of overall revenue. From a Test & Measurement standpoint, think of that as broad-based electronics. The other two end markets, comms is predominantly our aerospace and defense. Semiconductor is pretty well-defined as to who those large semiconductor players are globally. Diversified electronics is everyplace else that electronics are being innovated around, and we sit right in those labs. Tektronix is the pioneer in the oscilloscope, and the oscilloscope is the core foundational instrument sitting in the electronics lab for the engineers, whether they're doing energy storage systems, electronics for any type of mobility, including cars, medical devices, and a lot of AI edge devices that are full of electronics.

Speaker #8: The other two end markets, comms is predominantly our aerospace and defense. Semiconductor is pretty well defined as to who those large semiconductor players are globally.

Speaker #8: Diversified electronics is every place else that electronics are being innovated around. And we sit right in those labs. I mean, Tektronix is the pioneer in the oscilloscope, and the oscilloscope is the core foundational instrument sitting in the electronics lab for the engineers, whether they're doing energy storage systems, electronics for any type of mobility—including cars, medical devices—and a lot of AI at the edge of electronics.

Speaker #8: So you'll see when that is broad-based, like it's been the last two quarters, it's a good sign for electronics innovation. And the test and measurement equipment that enables those engineers to do that innovation.

Tami Newcombe: You'll see when that is broad-based, like it's been the last two quarters, it's a good sign for electronics innovation and the Test & Measurement equipment that enables those engineers to do that innovation.

Speaker #7: Okay, thanks. And then on margins in TNM, is there a path back to 20% here? Anytime soon or how do you think about maybe getting back to where you were previously?

Ian Zaffino: Okay, thanks. Then, on margins and T&M, is there a path back to 20% here any time soon, or how do you think about maybe getting back to where you were previously? Thanks.

Speaker #7: Thanks.

Speaker #8: Yeah, as we put the framework together for our margins, back in yesterday, about a year ago, the test and measurement segment, we've always thought of through the cycle in the mid-teens to the low 20s.

Tami Newcombe: As we put the framework together for our margins back at Investor Day about a year ago, the Test & Measurement segment, we've always thought of through the cycle in the mid-teens to the low twenties. That's still our expectation on this business. I think what you're seeing here, as we've come through four quarters now, is continuous improvement there. We'll be helped by some of the actions that we took in the first quarter. Then we've got an Enterprise Productivity Program here to drive our structural cost across the enterprise down.

Speaker #8: That's still our expectation on this business. And I think what you're seeing here as we've come through four quarters now is continuous improvement there.

Speaker #8: We'll be helped by some of the actions that we took in the first quarter. And then the we've got a enterprise productivity program here to drive our structural cost across the enterprise down.

Speaker #7: Okay. Thank you very much.

Ian Zaffino: Okay. Thank you very much.

Operator: Our next question is from Scott Graham with Seaport Research Partners. Please proceed.

Speaker #6: Hi, good morning. Congratulations on your quarter and thanks for taking my question. I really have just two well, I have a lot more, but I'll only ask two.

Scott Graham: Hi, good morning. Congratulations on your quarter, and thanks for taking my question. I really have just two. Well, I have a lot more, but I'll only ask two. Tektronix, there was a big movement afoot with new products in the H2 of last year, I think nine covering several platforms. I was just wondering, it looks like you have traction on that already, whereas I thought that was maybe more of a 12 to 18-month thing. Can you talk about how those new products at Tech are faring in the market?

Speaker #6: Tectronics, there was a big movement of foot with new products in the second half of last year, I think nine covering several platforms. I was just wondering it looks like you have traction on that already, whereas I thought that was maybe more of a 12 to 18-month thing.

Speaker #6: Can you talk about how those new products at Tech are faring in the market?

Speaker #8: Absolutely, Scott. Nice to hear from you. Thanks for the kind words on the quarter. The team will appreciate that. Tectronics continues to increase the velocity of new products.

Tami Newcombe: Absolutely, Scott. Nice to hear from you. Thanks for the kind words on the quarter. The team will appreciate that. Tektronix continues to increase the velocity of new products. In Q4 last year, there were two major platforms announced. One of the platforms, I mentioned oscilloscopes. It was the high-performance, state-of-the-art, industry-leading oscilloscope that is used in a lot of the R&D that's going on today for energy, for AI data center, anything around electronics. Because it's a platform, they will continue to bring out modules and software updates as we move through this year. That really is a place new products and new innovation go hand in hand. Yes, they have started to get good traction on the 7 Series, the probes, and also the platform for their power supplies. Very positive on velocity at Tektronix.

Speaker #8: In Q4 last year, there were two major platforms announced. One of the platforms, I mentioned oscilloscopes, it was the high-performance state-of-the-art industry-leading oscilloscope that is used in a lot of the R&D that's going on today.

Speaker #8: But that really is a place new products and new innovation go hand in hand. And yes, they have started to get good traction on the seven series, the probes, and also the platform for their power supplies.

Speaker #8: So, very positive on velocity at Tectronics.

Speaker #6: Well, thank you for that. And then also, I know that part of this initiative was your indication back from a year ago to Investor Day of moving Tectronics from more of just a research standpoint, more into manufacturing.

Scott Graham: Well, thank you for that. I know that part of this initiative was your indication back from a year ago at the Investor Day of moving Tektronix from more of just a research standpoint, more into manufacturing, and just wondering kind of the same question, how is that going and acceptance, and how many of these products, these nine, are half of them focused on manufacturing? Maybe just some color there. Thank you.

Speaker #6: And I just wondering kind of the same question. How is that going and acceptance and how many of these products, these nine, are half of them focused on manufacturing?

Speaker #6: Maybe just some color there. Thank you.

Speaker #8: Yeah, I would tie back to the platform approach. So the MP5000 platform is one that can be taken from research into the validation phase, into production.

Tami Newcombe: Yeah, I would tie back to the platform approach. The MP5000 platform is one that can be taken from research into the validation phase into production. That's one place where new products are showing up. Also, one of my stories in the opening was around the testing of optical transceivers, and that's another place where their Keithley portfolio plays really well in the validation and production side of the workflow. They continue to expand out of R&D into other parts of the workflow.

Speaker #8: So that's one place where new products are showing up. Also, one of my stories in the opening was around the testing of optical transceivers.

Speaker #8: And that's another place where their Keithley portfolio plays really well—in the validation and production side of the workflow. So, they continue to expand out of R&D into other parts of the workflow.

Speaker #6: Thank you.
