Donaldson Reports Record Third Quarter Fiscal 2026 Sales and EarningsJune 2, 2026 6:00 AM
Business Wire Third quarter sales of $995.1 million, up 5.8% Operating margin of 15.6%; All-time high adjusted operating margin of 16.6% GAAP EPS of $1.00; Adjusted EPS of $1.06, up 7.1% Closed margin-accretive Facet acquisition, enhancing Industrial Solutions product portfolio Narrowing fiscal 2026 guidance, including record sales, adjusted operating margin and adjusted EPS Donaldson Company, Inc. (NYSE: DCI) (Donaldson or the Company), a global leader in technology-led filtration products and solutions, today reported third quarter fiscal 2026 generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) net earnings of $118.1 million, compared with $57.8 million a year ago. Earnings per share (EPS)1 were $1.00 compared with third quarter fiscal 2025 EPS of $0.48. Third quarter fiscal 2026 results include $9.8 million of pre-tax, non-recurring net charges versus $65.8 million in the prior year. Excluding these items, adjusted third quarter results2,3 reflect net earnings of $125.5 million compared with $118.9 million in fiscal 2025, and EPS of $1.06 versus $0.99 a year ago. “Third quarter results marked a significant sequential step-up in performance, including all-time high sales, adjusted operating margin and adjusted earnings,” said Rich Lewis, president and chief executive officer. “Strong performance in our Mobile and Life Sciences segments more than offset near-term operating headwinds in the Industrial segment, demonstrating the benefit of our diversified portfolio of businesses. “As we work towards a strong finish to fiscal 2026, including another step-up in operating margin in the fourth quarter, our focus remains on delivering for our customers and thoughtfully investing to increase our scale while generating profitable growth. Our heightened backlogs, driven by robust order volume, combined with focused execution and expense discipline, give us confidence in delivering full-year record sales, adjusted operating margin and adjusted earnings, proving yet again, the strength of Donaldson Company.” _____________________________ 1 All EPS figures refer to diluted EPS. 2 Adjusted third quarter fiscal 2026 results exclude pre-tax charges of $9.0 million for restructuring and other, and $0.8 million of business development charges. Adjusted third quarter fiscal 2025 results exclude pre-tax charges of $4.2 million for restructuring and other, $0.8 million of business development charges, $62.0 million for the impairment of intangible assets, and a $1.2 million gain on the sale of fixed assets. 3 Adjusted figures are non-GAAP financial measures that excludes the impact of certain items not related to ongoing operations. The tables attached to this press release include a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures. Third Quarter Operating Results Sales of $995.1 million increased 5.8% compared with 2025 driven by favorable foreign currency translation, net pricing benefits and higher volume. Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended April 30, 2026 April 30, 2026 Reported % Change Constant Currency % Change Reported % Change Constant Currency % Change Mobile Solutions segment Off-Road 8.8 % 6.3 % 7.6 % 5.1 % On-Road 5.2 3.8 (11.4 ) (12.7 ) Aftermarket 8.1 5.2 5.3 3.0 Total Mobile Solutions segment 8.1 5.3 4.8 2.5 Industrial Solutions segment Industrial Filtration Solutions 2.3 0.2 3.6 1.6 Aerospace and Defense (13.5 ) (15.0 ) (13.4 ) (15.2 ) Total Industrial Solutions segment (0.6 ) (2.6 ) 0.6 (1.4 ) Life Sciences segment Total Life Sciences segment 12.7 7.9 14.0 9.2 Total Company 5.8 % 3.1 % 4.3 % 1.9 % Mobile Solutions segment (Mobile) sales increased 8.1% as a result of higher volumes, favorable currency translation, and net pricing benefits. Off-Road sales increased 8.8% due to improving end-market conditions, particularly in Construction. On-Road sales rose 5.2% from increased truck production, primarily in EMEA. Aftermarket sales increased 8.1% with growth in all regions and in both the OE and independent channel, including a double-digit increase in the independent channel. Industrial Solutions segment (Industrial) sales declined 0.6% versus prior year as lower volumes more than offset net pricing benefits and favorable currency translation. Industrial Filtration Solutions (IFS) sales increased 2.3%, driven by net pricing benefits and ongoing strength in Power Generation new equipment sales, partially offset by volume declines in Industrial Gases and dust collection. Aerospace and Defense sales decreased 13.5% due to weaker new equipment sales, driven by ongoing supply chain constraints and project timing. Life Sciences segment (Life Sciences) sales increased 12.7% from new equipment volume growth in Food and Beverage and Disk Drive. Gross margin was 33.5%, down versus 34.2% in 2025. Adjusted gross margin, excluding restructuring and other charges, was 34.4%, down 10 basis points from prior year. Operating inefficiencies, largely related to production shifts to support customer-specific requirements in Power Generation, were partially offset by higher net pricing, volume leverage and favorable mix. Operating expenses as a percentage of sales were 17.9%, favorable versus 24.9% in 2025. Adjusted operating expenses as a percentage of sales were 17.8% compared with 18.2% in 2025, driven by leverage on higher sales and expense discipline. Operating income as a percentage of sales (operating margin) was 15.6% versus 9.3% in 2025. Adjusted operating margin was 16.6%, up 30 basis points from a year ago driven by operating expense leverage. Interest expense was $6.5 million versus $5.7 million a year ago, primarily due to a higher level of debt. Other income, net was $6.0 million compared with $5.3 million in 2025, as a result of higher earnings from equity investments. The Company’s effective tax rate was 23.7%, favorable compared to 33.6% a year ago. The adjusted effective tax rate was 23.8%, an increase from 22.1% in 2025 due to a decrease in discrete tax benefits. Year to date, Donaldson paid $104.0 million in dividends and repurchased 1.2% of its shares outstanding for $108.5 million. On May 4, 2026, the Company completed the acquisition of Facet Filtration (“Facet”), a provider of fuel and fluid filtration solutions for mission-critical applications, in an all-cash transaction of $829 million. Financial results from the acquisition will be reported in the Industrial Solutions segment beginning in the fourth quarter. Narrowing Fiscal 2026 Organic Outlook Full-year results are forecast to include Facet-related sales of between $25 million and $30 million and net EPS dilution of approximately $0.03. Excluding this impact, organic adjusted full-year EPS is expected to be within a range of $3.94 and $4.01, reflecting an increase between 7% and 9% compared to fiscal 2025 adjusted EPS of $3.68. Fiscal 2026 adjusted EPS excludes a year-to-date net charge of $0.08 related to restructuring and other, and business development charges, offset by a gain on the sale of fixed assets. Organic sales, which exclude the impact from Facet, are forecast to increase between 3% and 5%, versus between 1% and 5% previously. Mobile sales are expected to grow between 3.5% and 5.5% year over year, compared with prior guidance of 2% to 6%, with Off-Road sales increasing mid-single digits, driven by improving end-market conditions and On-Road sales down low-single digits as global truck production remains tempered. Aftermarket sales are projected to increase mid-single digits from continued market share gains and higher vehicle utilization rates. Organic Industrial sales are forecast in a range of flat to 2% growth year over year, consistent with previous expectations and driven by a low-single digit increase in IFS sales, reflecting growth in several key businesses, including dust collection and Power Generation. Aerospace and Defense sales are expected to decrease mid-single digits versus 2025 due to project timing, partially as a result of ongoing supply chain constraints. Life Sciences sales are projected to increase between 9% and 11% versus 2025, up from between 5% and 9% previously, as a result of strong volume growth in Food and Beverage and Disk Drive. Adjusted 2026 operating margin is expected to be between 15.8% and 16.2%, versus previous expectations of between 16.0% and 16.4%, and above fiscal 2025 operating margin of 13.4%, or 15.7% on an adjusted basis. The year-over-year improvement in operating margin is driven by operating expense leverage, partially offset by gross margin headwinds. The fiscal 2026 operating margin impact from Facet is projected to be immaterial as ongoing operating performance is offset by transaction-related amortization costs. Interest expense is estimated to be approximately $26 million, excluding $9 million of additional expense from the Facet acquisition, and other income is forecast to be between $17 million and $19 million. Donaldson projects a fiscal 2026 adjusted effective income tax rate of between 22% and 24%. Capital expenditures are forecast between $60 million and $75 million and adjusted free cash flow conversion is projected to be in a range of 85% and 95%. Full-year repurchases are expected to remain unchanged from the current year-to-date total of 1.2%.

A reconciliation of the Company’s fiscal 2026 adjusted EPS guidance to fiscal 2026 GAAP EPS guidance is not included in this release due to the number of variables in the projected GAAP EPS range and the Company’s current inability to reasonably quantify certain amounts, such as restructuring or other charges, that would be included in the GAAP measure or the individual adjustments for such reconciliation. Note: Although free cash flow, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted gross profit, adjusted operating expense, adjusted operating income, adjusted net earnings and adjusted diluted EPS are not measures of financial performance under GAAP, the Company believes they are useful in understanding its financial results. Free cash flow is a commonly used measure of a company’s ability to generate cash in excess of its operating needs. EBITDA is a commonly used measure of operating earnings less non-cash expenses. The adjusted basis presentation excludes the impact of certain matters not related to the Company’s ongoing operations. Management believes that the adjusted basis presentation reflects management’s performance in operating the Company and provides a meaningful representation of the performance of the Company’s core business and is useful to understanding its financial results. A shortcoming of these financial measures is that they do not reflect the Company’s actual results under GAAP. Management does not intend these items to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measures. Amounts may not foot due to rounding.

Donaldson Introduces ArmorSeal™: The New Era of Air Filtration Technology for On-Road and Off-Road Heavy-Duty EquipmentFebruary 23, 2026 9:35 AM
Business Wire
Donaldson Company, Inc. (NYSE: DCI), a global leader in technology-led filtration products and solutions, today announced the launch of ArmorSeal™, its next-generation air filtration technology. The ArmorSeal technology builds on decades of Donaldson leadership in air filtration, from Axial Seal to the industry-defining RadialSeal™ and now to a new standard designed for today’s most demanding operating environments.
This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260223997395/en/ArmorSeal™ Air Cleaner Technology
As off-highway, construction, and heavy-duty equipment continue to operate under higher vibration, higher dust loads, and more frequent service cycles, maintaining long-term seal integrity has become one of the industry’s most persistent challenges. The ArmorSeal technology addresses this challenge directly, delivering a step-change in reliability, durability, and service consistency.
The ArmorSeal technology integrates a precision spin-welded joint, eliminating common failure modes through a uniform, repeatable spin-welded joint in place of snaps and adhesives, with a geometry-based engineered seal interface. This design maintains controlled sealing pressure over time while reducing service force and installation variability.
“Unplanned downtime remains one of the biggest cost drivers for equipment owners, and effective air filtration plays a critical role in reducing it,” said Mark Sala, Director of Air Product Management. “The ArmorSeal technology was created to eliminate the variability and failure modes we’ve historically seen in high-vibration, dusty environments. It delivers a more robust, user-friendly, and reliable air filtration solution that directly supports equipment uptime.”
Solving Real-World Industry Challenges
Industries operating heavy equipment including construction, mining, and off-road face growing pressures to extend machine life while minimizing downtime. Once contaminants bypass the air filtration system, performance degrades rapidly and engine damage can follow. Recent industry coverage in Power Progress (https://www.powerprogress.com/news/putting-the-seal-on-innovative-filtration/8110188.article) has highlighted the critical role seal integrity plays in preventing particulate ingress and avoiding costly failures. The ArmorSeal technology directly responds to these challenges by:
Improving the user experience through enhanced seal reliability with a guided, controlled-contact geometry that prevents micro-movement, debris intrusion, and improper installation, reducing filter removal force by 30%*;
Lowering total cost of ownership through extended service life and fewer maintenance related failures; and
Supporting scalable adoption across multiple air cleaner architectures, including compatibility with Donaldson’s legacy FPG platform.
*Compared to current RadialSealTM technology.
Purpose-Built for OEMs, Equipment Owners, and Demanding Applications
Building on the legacy of RadialSeal™ technology, the ArmorSeal design redefines expectations for modern air filtration systems. It is engineered for automated manufacturing, global repeatability, and long-life performance, validated through advanced modeling and OEM durability testing.
Availability
The ArmorSeal technology will make its official debut at CONEXPO-CON/AGG, showcasing its performance, engineering, and real-world testing insights. Advanced previews have already been highlighted within industry media and through Donaldson’s participation in upcoming expert forums.
