MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY:
Dover’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Richard J. Tobin, said, "Our fourth quarter results reflect broad-based top line strength across the portfolio, with organic growth reaching its highest level of the year. Revenue performance was driven by robust trends in our secular-growth-exposed markets as well as improving conditions in retail fueling and refrigerated door cases and services. Our sustained strong bookings rates continue to support underlying momentum across the portfolio, providing confidence in the durability of demand as we enter the new year.
"Margins improved year-over-year on volume leverage and ongoing productivity initiatives. We are carrying a significant amount of restructuring benefit into next year from previously announced productivity and fixed cost optimization projects, which should support attractive margin conversion.
"Our solid operational results were complemented by our capital allocation strategy. The acquisitions we closed during the year are performing above their deal models. Additionally, we initiated an accelerated share repurchase in November, underscoring our disciplined approach to capital return to shareholders. With meaningful balance sheet flexibility, we remain well positioned to invest behind long-term shareholder value creation.
"We have a constructive outlook for 2026. Demand trends are solid and broad-based across the portfolio, and are supported by our order book, with no individual end market presenting a material headwind. Our balance sheet optionality enables us to dynamically respond to market conditions and opportunistically play offense. Our 2026 guidance is consistent with our long-term EPS growth trajectory and our commitment to driving sustainable value creation for our shareholders."
FULL YEAR 2026 GUIDANCE:
In 2026, Dover expects to generate GAAP EPS in the range of $8.95 to $9.15 (adjusted EPS of $10.45 to $10.65), based on full year revenue growth of 5% to 7% (organic growth of 3% to 5%).

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2025
(unaudited)(amounts in thousands except share data and where otherwise indicated)
The discussion throughout this Investor Supplement, unless otherwise noted, relates solely to our continuing operations.
Acquisitions
The Company did not complete any acquisitions during the fourth quarter of 2025. For the full year 2025, the Company acquired four businesses in separate transactions for total consideration of $665.3 million, net of cash acquired and inclusive of measurement period adjustments and contingent consideration of $2.0 million. These businesses were acquired to complement and expand upon existing operations within the Pumps & Process Solutions and Clean Energy & Fueling segments. The purchase price allocations for these acquisitions are preliminary and subject to change during the measurement period.
Restructuring and Other Costs
During the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2025, restructuring and other costs included restructuring charges of $24.3 million and $56.7 million, respectively, and other costs of $5.2 million and $21.2 million, respectively. The restructuring expenses incurred during the year ended December 31, 2025 were primarily related to exit costs and headcount reductions across all segments, most notably within the Climate & Sustainability Technologies and Clean Energy & Fueling segments. These restructuring programs were initiated in 2024 and 2025 and the Company will continue to make proactive adjustments to its cost structure to align with current demand trends and additional programs, beyond the scope of the announced programs, may be implemented during 2026 with related restructuring charges. Other costs for the year ended December 31, 2025 include $4.0 million in costs associated with a product line exit and $6.3 million in costs associated with a footprint reduction, both in our Climate & Sustainability Technologies segment.

Tax Rate
The effective tax rate was 19.3% and 21.5% for the fourth quarters of 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease from 2024 to 2025 was primarily due to earnings mix. On a full year basis, the effective tax rate for 2025 and 2024 was 20.1% and 20.3%, respectively.
Share Repurchases
In the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company established a $500.0 million accelerated share repurchase program ("ASR Program"), initially receiving 2,334,010 shares, representing a substantial majority of the shares expected to be retired over the course of the ASR Program. The total number of shares ultimately repurchased will be based on the average of the daily volume-weighted average share price of Dover's common stock during the calculation period of the ASR Program, less a discount and subject to potential adjustments pursuant to the terms of the ASR Program. The ASR Program is scheduled to be completed in the second quarter of 2026, but is subject to early termination in certain circumstances. During the year ended December 31, 2025, exclusive of the ASR Program, the Company repurchased 200,000 shares of common stock at a total cost of $40.7 million or $203.50 per share.

Non-GAAP Measures Definitions
In an effort to provide investors with additional information regarding our results as determined by GAAP, management also discloses non-GAAP information that management believes provides useful information to investors. Adjusted earnings from continuing operations, adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, total segment earnings, total segment earnings margin, adjusted segment EBITDA, adjusted segment EBITDA margin, free cash flow, free cash flow as a percentage of revenue, free cash flow as a percentage of adjusted earnings from continuing operations, net debt, net capitalization, net debt to net capitalization ratio, and organic revenue growth are not financial measures under GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for earnings from continuing operations, diluted earnings from continuing operations per share, cash flows from operating activities, or revenue as determined in accordance with GAAP, and they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
The items described in our definitions herein, unless otherwise noted, relate solely to our continuing operations.
Adjusted earnings from continuing operations represents earnings from continuing operations adjusted for the effect of purchase accounting expenses, restructuring and other costs/benefits and gain/loss on dispositions. Purchase accounting expenses are primarily comprised of amortization of intangible assets. We exclude after-tax purchase accounting expenses because the amount and timing of such charges are significantly impacted by the timing, size, number and nature of the acquisitions the Company consummates. While we have a history of acquisition activity, our acquisitions do not happen in a predictive cycle. Exclusion of purchase accounting expenses facilitates more consistent comparisons of operating results over time. We believe it is important to understand that such intangible assets were recorded as part of purchase accounting and contribute to revenue generation. We exclude the other items because they occur for reasons that may be unrelated to the Company's commercial performance during the period and/or management believes they are not indicative of the Company's ongoing operating costs or gains in a given period.
Adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations or adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations represents diluted earnings per share from continuing operations adjusted for the effect of purchase accounting expenses, restructuring and other costs/benefits and gain/loss on disposition.
Total segment earnings is defined as the sum of earnings before purchase accounting expenses, restructuring and other costs/benefits, gain/loss on dispositions, corporate expenses/other, interest expense, interest income and provision for income taxes for all segments. Total segment earnings margin is defined as total segment earnings divided by revenue.
Adjusted segment EBITDA is defined as segment earnings plus other depreciation and amortization expense, which relates to property, plant, and equipment and intangibles, and excludes amounts related to purchase accounting expenses and restructuring and other costs/benefits. Adjusted segment EBITDA margin is defined as adjusted segment EBITDA divided by revenue.
Management believes the non-GAAP measures above are useful to investors to better understand the Company’s ongoing profitability as they better reflect the Company's core operating results, offer more transparency and facilitate easier comparability to prior and future periods and to its peers.
Net debt represents total debt minus cash and cash equivalents. Net capitalization represents net debt plus stockholders' equity. Net debt to net capitalization ratio is net debt divided by net capitalization. Net debt to net capitalization is helpful in evaluating our capital structure and the amount of leverage we employ.
Free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities minus capital expenditures. Free cash flow as a percentage of revenue equals free cash flow divided by revenue. Free cash flow as a percentage of adjusted earnings from continuing operations equals free cash flow divided by adjusted earnings from continuing operations. Management believes that free cash flow and free cash flow ratios are important measures of liquidity because they provide management and investors a measurement of cash generated from operations that is available for mandatory payment obligations and investment opportunities, such as funding acquisitions, paying dividends, repaying debt and repurchasing our common stock.
Management believes that reporting organic revenue growth, which excludes the impact of foreign currency exchange rates and the impact of acquisitions and dispositions, provides a useful comparison of our revenue and trends between periods. We do not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking organic revenue to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure pursuant to the exception provided in Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K because we are not able to provide a meaningful or accurate compilation of reconciling items. This is due to the inherent difficulty in accurately
IS - 13 forecasting the timing and amounts of the items that would be excluded from the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure or are out of our control. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of unavailable information which may be material.
Performance Measures Definitions
Bookings represent total orders received from customers in the current reporting period and exclude de-bookings related to orders received in prior periods, if any. This metric is an important measure of performance and an indicator of revenue order trends.
We use the above operational metric in monitoring the performance of the business. We believe the operational metric is useful to investors and other users of our financial information in assessing the performance of our segments.
