Full Year Outlook
Raising full year adjusted EPS outlook to a range of $6.65-$6.85 from $6.55-$6.75, despite macroeconomic backdrop.
Crane Company ("Crane," NYSE:CR) today announced its financial results for the first quarter of 2026 and raised its full year adjusted EPS outlook.
Alex Alcala, Crane's President and Chief Executive Officer, stated: "We delivered a very strong start to 2026, generating 15% adjusted EPS growth in the first quarter. Results exceeded our expectations with the majority of our outperformance driven by outstanding execution and momentum across our recent acquisitions which are already contributing meaningfully to earnings growth. Our legacy business also performed well, with nearly 4% core sales growth and solid operating leverage.
"We entered the year with strong momentum, underpinned by continued execution of our strategy, progress across growth initiatives, and solid performance by our recently acquired businesses. With geopolitical developments and a more uncertain macroeconomic environment, our first-quarter results demonstrate the resilience of our business and the strength of our operating fundamentals. Reflecting this performance and balanced against the evolving external backdrop, we are raising our full year adjusted EPS outlook to a range of $6.65–$6.85, up from $6.55–$6.75."
CEO Alcala concludes: "Our incredible culture and unique business system position us to outperform in evolving market conditions and generate long-term value for shareholders. We remain focused on executing with discipline in the areas within our control, staying agile and supporting our customers globally while continuing to invest in our growth priorities and technology platforms.”

First quarter sales increased 24.9%, with 3.8% core sales growth, an 18.3% contribution from the previously announced acquisitions of Druck, Panametrics, Reuter-Stokes, and optek-Danulat and a 2.7% benefit from foreign exchange.

Adjusted operating profit of $137.8 million increased 28.7% compared to last year, driven by contribution from recent acquisitions and productivity.

Sales of $378.1 million increased 22.5% compared to the prior year, primarily driven by a 19.2% contribution from the previously announced acquisitions of optek-Danulat, Panametrics, and Reuter-Stokes, and a 3.9% benefit from favorable foreign exchange offset slightly by a 0.6% core sales decline. Operating profit margin of 17.0% decreased 330bps compared to the prior year reflecting acquisition related transaction costs and intangible amortization, dilution from recent acquisitions, and lower volumes, partially offset by strong productivity and favorable net price. Adjusted operating profit margin, excluding acquisition related transaction costs and intangible amortization, was 22.1%, up 50 basis points compared to a year ago.
Raising 2026 Guidance
We are raising our full year adjusted EPS outlook to $6.65-$6.85 from $6.55-$6.75, representing approximately 12% growth at the midpoint versus 2025. Both periods exclude after-tax amortization of acquisition-related intangibles. In addition, the 2025 results exclude hurricane-related insurance recoveries, which contributed $0.16 to full year EPS.
Key assumptions for our guidance include:
Total sales growth in the low- to mid-20%s, driven by the Druck, Panametrics, Reuter-Stokes, and optek-Danulat acquisitions, as well as mid-single digit core sales growth and a roughly 1 percent foreign exchange benefit.
Adjusted segment operating margin of nearly 23.0% (up slightly from our prior estimate of 22.5%+).
Corporate cost of approximately $80-$85 million.
Net non-operating expense of approximately $58 million, with the increase driven by the interest expense associated with acquisition financing.
Adjusted tax rate of approximately 23.0%.
Diluted shares of ~59 million.
Additional details of our outlook and guidance are included in the presentation that accompanies this earnings release available on our website at www.craneco.com in the "investors" section.

Crane Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted operating profit, adjusted operating profit margin, adjusted tax rate, adjusted net income, adjusted EPS, adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow, that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures are an addition, and not a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to operating income, net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. We believe that these non-GAAP measures of financial results (including on a forward-looking or projected basis) provide useful supplemental information to investors about Crane Company. Our management uses certain forward looking non-GAAP measures to evaluate projected financial and operating results. However, there are a number of limitations related to the use of these non-GAAP measures and their nearest GAAP equivalents. For example, other companies may calculate non-GAAP measures differently or may use other measures to calculate their financial performance, and therefore our non-GAAP measures may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
Reconciliations of certain forward-looking and projected non-GAAP measures for Crane Company, including Adjusted EPS, and Adjusted segment margin to the closest corresponding GAAP measure are not available without unreasonable efforts due to the high variability, complexity and low visibility with respect to the charges excluded from these non-GAAP measures, which could have a potentially significant impact on our future GAAP results. For Crane Company, these forward looking and projected non-GAAP measures are calculated as follows:
"Adjusted segment operating margin" is calculated as adjusted segment operating profit divided by segment sales. Adjusted segment operating profit is calculated as operating profit excluding corporate costs and before Special Items which include acquisition-related intangible amortization, transaction related expenses and repositioning related charges. We believe that non-GAAP financial measures that exclude these items provide investors with an alternative metric that can assist in predicting future earnings and profitability that are complementary to GAAP metrics.
"Adjusted Tax Rate" is calculated as tax excluding the impact from items which are outside of our core performance, some of which may or may not be non-recurring, and which we believe may complicate the presentation of the Company’s underlying earnings divided by "Adjusted Net Income".
"Adjusted EPS" is calculated as adjusted net income divided by diluted shares. Adjusted net income is calculated as net income adjusted for Special Items which include transaction related expenses such as professional fees, and incremental costs related to acquisitions; repositioning related charges; acquisition-related intangible amortization and, the impact of pension non-service costs. We believe that non-GAAP financial measures adjusted for these items provide investors with an alternative metric that can assist in predicting future earnings and profitability that are complementary to GAAP metrics.
We believe that each of the following non-GAAP measures provides useful information to investors regarding the Company’s financial conditions and operations:
"Adjusted Operating Profit" and "Adjusted Operating Margin" add back to Operating Profit items which are outside of our core performance, some of which may or may not be non-recurring, and which we believe may complicate the interpretation of the Company’s underlying earnings and operational performance. These items include income and expense such as: acquisition-related intangible amortization, transaction related expenses and repositioning related (gains) charges. These items are not incurred in all periods, the size of these items is difficult to predict, and none of these items are indicative of the operations of the underlying businesses. We believe that non-GAAP financial measures that exclude these items provide investors with an alternative metric that can assist in predicting future earnings and profitability that are complementary to GAAP metrics.
"Adjusted Net Income" and "Adjusted EPS" exclude items which are outside of our core performance, some of which may or may not be non-recurring, and which we believe may complicate the presentation of the Company’s underlying earnings and operational performance. These measures include income and expense items that impacted Operating Profit such as: transaction related expenses and repositioning related (gains) charges. Additionally, these non-GAAP financial measures exclude income and expense items that impacted Net Income and Earnings per Diluted Share such as the impact of pension non-service costs. These items are not incurred in all periods, the size of these items is difficult to predict, and none of these items are indicative of the operations of the underlying businesses. We believe that non-GAAP financial measures that exclude these items provide investors with an alternative metric that can assist in predicting future earnings and profitability that are complementary to GAAP metrics.
"Adjusted EBITDA" adds back to net income: net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, miscellaneous (income) expense, net, and items outside of our core performance such as transaction related expenses. "Adjusted EBITDA Margin" is calculated as adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. We believe that adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin provide investors with an alternative metric that may be a meaningful indicator of our performance and provides useful information to investors regarding our financial conditions and results of operations that is complementary to GAAP metrics.
“Free Cash Flow” and “Adjusted Free Cash Flow from continuing operations” provide supplemental information to assist management and investors in analyzing the Company’s ability to generate liquidity from its operating activities. The measure of free cash flow does not take into consideration certain other non-discretionary cash requirements such as, for example, mandatory principal payments on the Company’s long-term debt. Free Cash Flow is calculated as cash provided by operating activities less capital spending. Adjusted Free Cash Flow from continuing operations is calculated as Free Cash Flow adjusted for certain cash items which we believe may complicate the interpretation of the Company’s underlying free cash flow performance such as certain transaction related cash flow items related to acquisitions. These items are not incurred in all periods, the size of these items is difficult to predict, and none of these items are indicative of the operations of the underlying businesses. We believe that non-GAAP financial measures that exclude these items provide investors with an alternative metric that can assist in predicting future cash flows that are complementary to GAAP metrics.
