What management said

  • We released our first quarter financial results earlier this morning, and you can find both our press release and earnings call slide presentation in the Investor Section of our website, idexcorp.com.
  • Today's call will begin with Eric providing highlights of our first quarter results and an update on our business outlook and strategies.
  • Sean will discuss additional financial details and our updated outlook for 2026.
  • IDEX delivered a strong first quarter and continue to see our growth strategies gain traction as we expand and integrate capabilities in targeted advantage markets powered by 80/20.
  • In the first quarter, IDEX delivered organic sales growth of 5% and adjusted EBITDA margin of 26%, which reflects a margin expansion of 50 basis points year-over-year.
  • Strength was most pronounced in our Health & Science Technologies or HST segment, where secular drivers continue to fuel growth across high-value applications in data center, semiconductor, and space and defense markets.
  • The strong backlog build in HST improves our visibility to deliver continued solid growth for the balance of the year and into 2027.
  • Finally, orders in our Fluid & Metering Technologies or FMT segment grew 9% organic year-over-year.
  • Taking our Q1 performance and backlog build into account, we are raising our full year 2026 financial outlook.
  • Before turning it over to Sean, I'd like to walk through a live example of IDEX's capabilities to drive long-term value as 80/20 drives growth, margins, and earnings.
  • Space and defense is a prime example of faster-growing, durable end markets where we are increasingly deploying resources in the HST segment to expand our opportunity set.
  • These markets benefit from growing demand for space-based connectivity and breakthrough defense technologies with long program lives and rising system complexity creating a multiyear growth runway.
