SHELTON, CT. (October 28, 2025) - Hubbell Incorporated (NYSE: HUBB) today reported operating results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025.
“Hubbell delivered double digit adjusted earnings per diluted share growth in the third quarter, driven by strong organic growth in Electrical Solutions and Grid Infrastructure products within our Utility Solutions segment, as well as a lower year-over-year tax rate” said Gerben Bakker, Chairman, President and CEO.
Mr. Bakker continued, “In our Utility Solutions segment, Grid Infrastructure achieved 8% organic growth in the quarter. T&D markets remained strong as utility customers invest to interconnect new sources of load and generation on the grid, while aging infrastructure continued to drive solid hardening and resilience activity. Grid Automation sales were down 18% in the quarter, driven by weak meter and AMI project activity, while protection and controls products contributed solid growth. In Electrical Solutions, 8% organic growth was driven by strength in datacenter and light industrial markets. Execution on our segment unification strategy continues to drive growth through innovation and commercial alignment, along with operating efficiencies and margin expansion. Operationally, price and productivity exceeded cost inflation across both segments in the quarter, driven by Hubbell's strong positions in attractive markets and execution in proactively managing our cost structure.”
Mr. Bakker concluded, “We are raising our 2025 adjusted earnings per share outlook, which anticipates 3-4% organic growth, strong adjusted operating margin expansion and a lower full year tax rate than previously anticipated.”
Certain terms used in this release, including “net debt”, “free cash flow”, “organic net sales”, “organic net sales growth”, “restructuring-related costs”, “Adjusted EBITDA”, and certain other “adjusted” measures, are defined under the section entitled “Non-GAAP Definitions.” See page 9 for more information.
THIRD QUARTER FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
The comments and year-over-year comparisons in this segment review are based on third quarter results in 2025 and 2024.
Utility Solutions segment net sales in the third quarter of 2025 increased 1% to $944 million compared to $933 million reported in the third quarter of 2024. Organic net sales increased approximately 1% in the quarter. Grid Infrastructure net sales increased approximately 9% and Grid Automation net sales decreased approximately 18%. Segment operating income was $219 million, or 23.2% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2025 as compared to $219 million, or 23.5% of net sales in the same period of 2024. Segment adjusted operating income was $242 million, or 25.7% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2025 as compared to $245 million, or 26.2% of net sales in the prior year period. Changes in operating income and operating margin were primarily due to favorable price realization and productivity as well as strong volume growth in Grid Infrastructure, offset by volume declines in Grid Automation as well as higher cost inflation, raw material costs and tariffs.
Electrical Solutions segment net sales in the third quarter of 2025 increased 10% to $559 million compared to $510 million reported in the third quarter of 2024. Organic net sales increased 8% in the quarter, while an acquisition contributed 1%. Segment operating income was $111 million, or 19.9% of net sales in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $94 million, or 18.4% of net sales in the same period of 2024. Adjusted operating income was $116 million, or 20.8% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2025 as compared to $99 million, or 19.4% of net sales in the same period of the prior year. Changes in operating income and operating margin were driven primarily by volume growth and favorable price realization and productivity, partially offset by higher cost inflation, raw material costs and tariffs.
The effective tax rate in the third quarter of 2025 decreased to 17.5% as compared to 21.0% in the third quarter of 2024, primarily due to a large income tax benefit in the third quarter of 2025 from an international restructuring.
Adjusted diluted EPS in the third quarter 2025 excludes $0.35 of amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and $0.05 of transaction, integration, and separation costs. Adjusted diluted EPS in the third quarter 2024 excluded $0.39 of amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and $0.04 of transaction, integration, & separation costs.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $284 million in the third quarter of 2025 versus net cash provided by operating activities of $227 million in the 2024 period. Free cash flow was $254 million in the third quarter of 2025 versus $189 million in the comparable period of 2024.
SUMMARY & OUTLOOK
For the full year 2025, Hubbell anticipates diluted earnings per share ("EPS") in the range of $16.55-$16.75 and anticipates adjusted diluted earnings per share ("Adjusted EPS") in the range of $18.10-$18.30. Adjusted EPS excludes amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, which the Company expects to be approximately $1.45 per share for the full year, and approximately $0.10 of transaction, integration and separation costs. The Company believes Adjusted EPS is a useful measure of underlying performance in light of our acquisition and divestiture strategy.
Hubbell anticipates full year 2025 total sales growth and organic net sales growth of 3-4%. The diluted EPS and Adjusted EPS ranges are based on an adjusted tax rate of 20.5% to 21.0% and include approximately $20 million of anticipated restructuring and related investment. The Company expects full year 2025 free cash flow conversion of approximately 90% on adjusted net income.

NON-GAAP DEFINITIONS
References to "adjusted" operating measures exclude the impact of certain costs, gains or losses. Management believes these adjusted operating measures provide useful information regarding our underlying performance from period to period and an understanding of our results of operations without regard to items we do not consider a component of our core operating performance. Adjusted operating measures are non-GAAP measures, and include adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income attributed to Hubbell Incorporated, adjusted net income available to common shareholders, adjusted earnings per diluted share, and Adjusted EBITDA. These non-GAAP measures exclude, where applicable:
- Amortization of all intangible assets associated with our business acquisitions, including inventory step-up amortization associated with those acquisitions. The intangible assets associated with our business acquisitions arise from the allocation of the purchase price using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 805, “Business Combinations.” These assets consist primarily of customer relationships, developed technology, trademarks and tradenames, and patents, as reported in Note 7 - Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, under the heading “Total Definite-Lived Intangibles,” within the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements set forth in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2024. The Company excludes these non-cash expenses because we believe it (i) enhances management’s and investors’ ability to analyze underlying business performance, (ii) facilitates comparisons of our financial results over multiple periods, and (iii) provides more relevant comparisons of our results with the results of other companies as the amortization expense associated with these assets may fluctuate significantly from period to period based on the timing, size, nature, and number of acquisitions. Although we exclude amortization of these acquired intangible assets and inventory step-up from our non-GAAP results, we believe that it is important for investors to understand that revenue generated, in part, from such intangibles is included within revenue in determining adjusted net income attributable to Hubbell Incorporated.
- Transaction, integration, and separation costs associated with our business acquisitions and divestitures. The effect that acquisitions and divestitures may have on our results fluctuate significantly based on the timing, size, and number of transactions, and therefore results in significant volatility in the costs to complete transactions and integrate or separate the businesses. Transaction costs are primarily professional services and other fees incurred to complete the transactions. Integration and separation costs are the internal and external incremental costs directly relating to these activities for the acquired or divested business. The acquisition and integration of DMC Power will result in significant transaction and integration costs, and the acquisitions and dispositions completed by the company in the fourth quarter of 2023 resulted in a significant increase in the transaction, integration and separation costs. As a result, we believe excluding such costs relating to these transactions provides useful and more comparable information for investors to better assess our operating performance from period to period.
- Gains or losses from the disposition of a business. The Company excludes these gains or losses because we believe it enhances management's and investors' ability to analyze underlying business performance and facilitates comparisons of our financial results over multiple periods. In the first quarter of 2024 the Company recognized a $5.3 million pre-tax loss on the disposition of the residential lighting business. In the second quarter of 2025 the Company recognized a $0.4 million pre-tax loss on the disposition of a product line in the HES segment.
- The income tax effect directly related to the disposition of the residential lighting business. In the first quarter of 2024 the Company recognized $6.8 million of income tax expense on the sale of the residential lighting business, primarily driven by differences between book and tax basis in goodwill.
- Income tax effects of the above adjustments, which are calculated using the statutory tax rate, taking into consideration the nature of the item and the relevant taxing jurisdiction, unless otherwise noted.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that excludes the items noted above and also excludes the Other income (expense), net, Interest expense, net, and Provision for income taxes captions of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income, as well as depreciation and amortization expense.
Net debt (defined as total debt less cash and investments) to total capital is a non-GAAP measure that we believe is a useful measure for evaluating the Company's financial leverage and the ability to meet its funding needs.
Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure that we believe provides useful information regarding the Company's ability to generate cash without reliance on external financing. In addition, management uses free cash flow to evaluate the resources available for investments in the business, strategic acquisitions and further strengthening the balance sheet.
In connection with our restructuring and related actions, we have incurred restructuring costs as defined by U.S. GAAP, which are primarily severance and employee benefits, asset impairments, accelerated depreciation, as well as facility closure, contract termination and certain pension costs that are directly related to restructuring actions. We also incur restructuring-related costs, which are costs associated with our business transformation initiatives, including the consolidation of back-office functions and streamlining our processes, and certain other costs and gains associated with restructuring actions. We refer to these costs on a combined basis as "restructuring and related costs", which is a non-GAAP measure.
Organic net sales, a non-GAAP measure, represents net sales according to U.S. GAAP, less net sales from acquisitions and divestitures during the first twelve months of ownership or divestiture, respectively, less the effect of fluctuations in net sales from foreign currency exchange. The period-over-period effect of fluctuations in net sales from foreign currency exchange is calculated as the difference between local currency net sales of the prior period translated at the current period exchange rate as compared to the same local currency net sales translated at the prior period exchange rate. We believe this measure provides management and investors with a more complete understanding of underlying operating results and trends of established, ongoing operations by excluding the effect of acquisitions, dispositions and foreign currency, as these activities can obscure underlying trends. When comparing net sales growth between periods excluding the effects of acquisitions, business dispositions and currency exchange rates, those effects are different when comparing results for different periods. For example, because net sales from acquisitions are considered inorganic from the date we complete an acquisition through the end of the first year following the acquisition, net sales from such acquisition are reflected as organic net sales thereafter.
There are limitations to the use of non-GAAP measures. Non-GAAP measures do not present complete financial results. We compensate for this limitation by providing a reconciliation between our non-GAAP financial measures and the respective most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. These financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, as substitutes for, or alternative measures of, reported GAAP financial results, and should be viewed in conjunction with the most comparable GAAP financial measures and the provided reconciliations thereto. We believe, however, that these non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed together with our GAAP results and related reconciliations, provide a more complete understanding of our business. We strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not rely on any single financial measure.
Reconciliations of each of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure can be found in the tables below. When we provide our expectations for organic net sales, adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted diluted EPS and free cash flow on a forward-looking basis, a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP expectations and the corresponding GAAP measures (expected net sales, effective tax rate, diluted EPS and net cash flows provided by operating activities) generally is not available without unreasonable effort due to potentially high variability, complexity and low visibility as to the items that would be excluded from the GAAP measure in the relevant future period, such as unusual gains and losses, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, the impact and timing of potential acquisitions and divestitures, certain financing costs, and other structural changes or their probable significance. The variability of the excluded items may have a significant, and potentially unpredictable, impact on our future GAAP results.
