Packaging covers automated adhesive dispensing for rigid packaged goods in food and beverage, pharmaceutical and other consumer goods. Polymer processing supplies components and systems used in the thermoplastic and biopolymer melt stream in extrusion, injection moulding, compounding, polymerisation and recycling. Precision agriculture supplies spraying products including nozzles, pumps and filters, smart components that measure and control the flow, quantity and location of dispensed fluid, and control systems, supported by software and data. Product assembly covers dispensing, coating and laminating for plastic, metal and wood products, paper and paperboard converting and continuous roll goods.

Medical and Fluid Solutions

The segment supplies components and device products for medical, life science, high-tech industrial and other markets. Engineered fluid solutions covers precision manual and semi-automated dispensers and engineered single-use plastic moulded syringes, cartridges, tips and fluid connection components used in medical and industrial production and in applying adhesives, sealants and lubricants. Medical interventional solutions covers minimally invasive surgical work, with engineered shafts and interventional delivery systems, medical tubing, balloons, balloon inflators, nitinol devices, cardiovascular cannula and biomaterial delivery, aimed at cardiovascular, structural heart, neurovascular and gastroenterology. Medical fluid components covers single-use plastic components including drug delivery and needle-free infusion valves and fluid transfer components, for drug infusion, intravenous delivery, patient care, surgical and biopharma use. Surgical solutions covers microplegia myocardial protection devices and related consumables used in cardiac surgery.

Advanced Technology Solutions

Electronics dispense systems covers automated dispensing for high-speed application of attachment, protection and coating fluids, with gas plasma systems that clean and condition surfaces beforehand, sold across the electronics supply chain producing semiconductors, printed circuit board assemblies and components. Test and inspection covers destructive and non-destructive testing such as bond testers and automated optical, acoustic microscopy and x-ray inspection systems, plus in-line measurement sensors, gauges and analysers using near-infrared, laser, x-ray, optical and nucleonic technologies, for semiconductor packaging, printed circuit boards, flexible circuits, consumer electronics, film extrusion, cable and tubing and energy storage.

Making it, and competing

Production covers machining, moulding and assembly, with specially designed parts made in-house and components assembled into finished equipment, many of them standard modules usable in more than one product. Principal manufacturing sits across fifteen American states and in China, Bulgaria, Germany, Ireland, India, Israel, Italy, Mexico, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. Principal materials are sheet metal, fabricated metal parts, bar stock, castings, forgings, tubing, plastic parts and pellets, plus bought-in electrical and electronic components, fluid hoses, packings and seals; most come from multiple sources, though costs can move with raw material prices, tariffs particularly on imports from China, and disruptions in availability. It holds more than 2,100 granted and pending patents and more than 1,000 trademarks, valuable in aggregate, while attributing its competitive advantage largely to the technical, marketing and sales capability of its employees, so it treats no single right as material. Sales are historically highest in the second half of the fiscal year and lowest in the first quarter, driven by the timing of customers' capital spending programmes and customer holiday shutdowns. It competes with many large, well-established manufacturers and service providers and against alternative bonding, sealing, finishing, coating, processing, testing, inspecting and fluid control techniques, on pricing, product quality and service. At 31 October 2025 it had approximately 8,000 employees worldwide.

Each quarter as filed, linked to its filing.
Read more* The fourth quarter is the full year less the first three quarters, because the company files the year and not the quarter on its own. A fourth quarter's EPS, and its diluted share count where shown, are from the company's results press release for that quarter, checked against the company's filed figures or a second data source. Money is in $ million as the company files it, or in $ billion by the switch above the tables; per share figures and the share count are as they are. Free cash flow is operating cash flow less capital expenditure; the effective tax rate is income tax over pre-tax income; margins are the line over revenue. Gross profit is revenue less cost of revenue, and operating income is revenue less the company's own total costs, where the statement does not print those lines. Cash flow lines filed year to date are the difference between two filings. Shares outstanding are at the period end where the balance sheet tags them, otherwise the count on the filing's cover page. A derived fourth-quarter EPS is left blank when a split in the year makes the arithmetic meaningless.

Read moreBoth totals are the company's own. Other liabilities is the filed total less the rows above it: payables, deferred revenue, taxes, borrowings the rows above do not carry and the rest; other assets is the same on the other side. Investments add the current and non-current lines as filed. Debt is the company's own stated total where it files one, otherwise its long-term debt with the current maturities, never parts added together. A row is left blank in a year where the lines shown overlap and the remainder would fall below nil.
