Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that may cause a difference include, but are not limited to, those discussed under Part I, Item 1A – Risk Factors in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. The following section is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed information, including our Condensed and Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto, which appears elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.
Overview
Organization
Allegion plc and its consolidated subsidiaries ("Allegion," "the Company", "we," "our," or "us") are a leading global provider of security products and solutions operating in two segments: Allegion Americas and Allegion International. We sell a wide range of security products and solutions for end-users in commercial, institutional and residential facilities worldwide, including the education, healthcare, government, hospitality, retail, commercial office and single and multi-family residential markets. Our leading brands include CISA®, Interflex®, LCN®, Schlage®, SimonsVoss® and Von Duprin®.
Recent Developments
Business and Industry Trends and Outlook
In the first quarter of 2025, we delivered mid-single digit revenue growth compared to the same period in 2024, driven by the Americas non-residential business, as demand for our products remains healthy.
Demand for electronic security products has also remained strong. Macroeconomic conditions in our International markets remain mixed.
Global Trade and Macroeconomic Environment
In the first quarter of 2025, the U.S. government announced tariffs on imports from several countries from which we manufacture and/or import products and components. Subsequent to their announcement, there have been changes to the effective dates and amounts, and as a result, we are unable to quantify the impact that tariffs, when ultimately enacted, will have on our results of operations. We continue to analyze the impact of these actions and what, if any, steps, including pricing actions, we may take to mitigate the impact of the tariffs. We estimate we source approximately 20-25% of cost of goods sold ("COGS") from Mexico, less than 5% of COGS from China, and 5-10% of COGS from all other countries. Additionally, this could impact future demand.
Acquisitions
On February 4, 2025, the Company, through its subsidiaries, acquired Next Door Company ("Next Door"), a global provider of security products and solutions based in the United States. Next Door is reported in the Company's Allegion Americas segment.
On March 1, 2025, the Company, through its subsidiaries, acquired Lemaar Pty Ltd ("Lemaar"), a global provider of security products and solutions based in Australia. Lemaar is reported in the Company's Allegion International segment.
2025 Dividends and Share Repurchases
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we paid dividends of $0.51 per ordinary share to shareholders and repurchased approximately 0.3 million shares for $40.0 million.

The discussions that follow describe the significant factors contributing to the changes in our results of operations for the periods presented and form the basis used by management to evaluate the financial performance of the business.
Net Revenues
Net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2025, increased by 5.4%, or $48.0 million, compared with the same period in 2024, due to the following:
| Pricing | 1.1 | % | |||
| Volume | 2.9 | % | |||
| Acquisitions | 2.2 | % | |||
| Currency exchange rates | (0.8) | % | |||
| Total | 5.4 | % |
The increase in Net revenues was driven by higher volumes, the favorable impact from acquisitions, and improved pricing, which was partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency exchange rate movements.
Pricing includes increases or decreases of price, including discounts, surcharges and/or other sales deductions, on our existing products and services. Volume includes increases or decreases of revenue due to changes in unit volume of existing products and services, as well as new products and services.
Operating Income/Margin
Operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2025, increased $24.3 million compared to the same period in 2024. Operating margin, which we define as Operating income as a percentage of total Net revenues, for the three months ended March 31, 2025, increased to 20.9% from 19.3% for the same period in 2024, due to the following:
| In millions | Operating Income | Operating Margin | |||||||||
| March 31, 2024 | $ | 172.1 | 19.3 | % | |||||||
| Inflation and investment spending in excess of pricing and productivity | (0.4) | (0.2) | % | ||||||||
| Volume / product mix | 17.5 | 1.3 | % | ||||||||
| Acquisitions | 5.1 | 0.1 | % | ||||||||
| Currency exchange rates | 1.9 | 0.4 | % | ||||||||
| Acquisition / integration/ restructuring expenses | 0.2 | — | % | ||||||||
| March 31, 2025 | $ | 196.4 | 20.9 | % |
The increase in Operating income and Operating margin was driven by favorable volume/product mix, the favorable impact from acquisitions, favorable foreign currency exchange rate movements, inclusive of transactional currency gains and losses, and lower acquisition, integration and restructuring expenses. These increases were partially offset by slightly higher inflation and investment spending than pricing and productivity.
Inflation and investment spending in excess of pricing and productivity includes the impact to both Operating income and Operating margin from pricing, as defined above, in addition to productivity, inflation and investment spending. Productivity represents improvements in unit costs of materials, cost reductions related to improvements to our manufacturing design and processes and reductions in selling and administrative expenses due to productivity projects. Inflation includes both unit costs for the current period compared to the average actual cost for the prior period, multiplied by current year volumes, and current
period costs of ongoing selling and administrative functions compared to the same ongoing expenses in the prior period. Expenses related to increased head count for strategic initiatives, new facilities or other significant spending for strategic initiatives or new product and channel development, are captured in investment spending.
Volume/product mix represents the impact to both Operating income and Operating margin due to increases or decreases of revenue due to changes in unit volume, including new products and services, including the effect of changes in the mix of products and services sold on Cost of goods sold.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025, increased $1.8 million compared with the same period in 2024, primarily due to higher interest rates on outstanding indebtedness compared to the same period in the prior year.
Other Income, net
The components of Other income, net for the three months ended March 31 were as follows:
| In millions | 2025 | 2024 | |||||||||
| Interest income | $ | (4.0) | $ | (3.6) | |||||||
| Foreign currency exchange loss | 1.0 | 1.2 | |||||||||
| Other | (0.5) | (1.3) | |||||||||
| Other income, net | $ | (3.5) | $ | (3.7) |
Provision for Income Taxes
The effective income tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, were 15.4% and 19.0%, respectively. The decrease in the effective income tax rate compared to 2024 is primarily due to discrete items, including the favorable year over year changes in the amounts recognized for uncertain tax positions and income tax credits.
Review of Business Segments
We operate in and report financial results for two segments: Allegion Americas and Allegion International. These segments represent the level at which our chief operating decision maker reviews our financial performance and makes operating decisions.
Segment operating income is the measure of profit and loss that our chief operating decision maker uses to evaluate the financial performance of the business and as the basis for resource allocation, performance reviews and compensation. For these reasons, we believe that Segment operating income represents the most relevant measure of Segment profit and loss. Our chief operating decision maker may exclude certain charges or gains, such as corporate charges and other special charges, to arrive at a Segment operating income that is a more meaningful measure of profit and loss upon which to base our operating decisions. We define Segment operating margin as Segment operating income as a percentage of the segment’s Net revenues.
The segment discussions that follow describe the significant factors contributing to the changes in results for each segment included in Net earnings.

Allegion Americas
Our Allegion Americas segment is a leading provider of security products, services and solutions throughout North America. The segment sells a broad range of products and solutions including locks, locksets, key systems, door controls and door control systems, exit devices, doors, glass and door systems, accessories, electronic security products, access control systems and software and service solutions to customers in institutional, commercial and residential facilities, including the education, healthcare, government, hospitality, retail, commercial office and single and multi-family residential markets. This segment’s primary brands are LCN, Schlage, Von Duprin and Stanley Access Technologies, which we utilize with permission in accordance with the terms of an agreement with Stanley Black & Decker ("Stanley" is the property of Stanley Logistics L.L.C.).
Net Revenues
Net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2025, increased by 6.8%, or $48.5 million, compared to the same period in 2024, due to the following:
| Pricing | 1.1 | % | ||||||
| Volume | 3.8 | % | ||||||
| Acquisitions | 2.3 | % | ||||||
| Currency exchange rates | (0.4) | % | ||||||
| Total | 6.8 | % |
The increase in Net revenues was driven by higher volumes, the favorable impact of acquisitions, and improved pricing, partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency exchange rate movements.
Net revenues from non-residential products for the three months ended March 31, 2025, increased by a high-single digits percent compared to the same period in the prior year, as demand for our products remains healthy. We currently anticipate growth in revenues from our non-residential products and services for 2025.
Net revenues from residential products for the three months ended March 31, 2025, decreased by a mid-single digits percent compared to the same period in the prior year as a result of softer residential markets. Given current market conditions around new construction and existing home sales, we expect continued softness in our residential business in 2025.
Growth in electronic security products and solutions is a metric that is actively monitored by management and a focus of our investors. Electronic products encompass both residential and non-residential solutions and include all electrified product categories including, but not limited to, electronic and electrified locks, access control systems and electronic and electrified door controls and systems and exit devices. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, Net revenues from the sale of electronic products in the Allegion Americas segment increased by a low-double digits percent compared to the same period in the prior year. We expect continued growth in our electronic products in 2025.
Operating income/margin
Segment operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2025, increased $24.4 million compared to the same period in 2024, and Segment operating margin for the three months ended March 31, 2025, increased to 27.9% from 26.4%, due to the following:
| In millions | Operating Income | Operating Margin | ||||||||||||
| March 31, 2024 | $ | 187.0 | 26.4 | % | ||||||||||
| Inflation and investment spending in excess of pricing and productivity | (0.9) | (0.4) | % | |||||||||||
| Volume / product mix | 17.0 | 1.3 | % | |||||||||||
| Currency exchange rates | 2.9 | 0.5 | % | |||||||||||
| Acquisitions | 4.6 | — | % | |||||||||||
| Acquisition / integration/ restructuring expenses | 0.8 | 0.1 | % | |||||||||||
| March 31, 2025 | $ | 211.4 | 27.9 | % |
The increase in Segment operating income and Segment operating margin was primarily driven by favorable volume/product mix, favorable foreign currency exchange rate movements, the favorable impact of recent acquisitions, and lower acquisition, integration, and restructuring expenses. These increases were partially offset by inflation and investment spending in excess of pricing and productivity. The currency impact above is primarily due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar versus the Mexican peso compared to the prior year.
Allegion International
Our Allegion International segment provides security products, services and solutions primarily throughout Europe, Asia and Oceania. The segment offers end-users a broad range of products, services and solutions including locks, locksets, portable
locks, key systems, door controls and door control systems, exit devices, doors, electronic security products, access control systems, time and attendance and workforce productivity solutions, among other software and service solutions. This segment’s primary brands are AXA, CISA, Gainsborough, Interflex, and SimonsVoss.
Net Revenues
Net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2025, decreased by 0.3%, or $0.5 million, compared to the same period in 2024, due to the following:
| Pricing | 1.0 | % | ||||||
| Volume | (0.1) | % | ||||||
| Acquisitions | 1.8 | % | ||||||
| Currency exchange rates | (3.0) | % | ||||||
| Total | (0.3) | % |
The decrease in Net revenues was primarily driven by unfavorable foreign currency exchange rate movements and lower volumes. This decrease was partially offset by favorable impact from acquisitions as well as improved pricing.
Operating income/margin
Segment operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2025, decreased $1.3 million compared to the same period in 2024, and Segment operating margin for the three months ended March 31, 2025, decreased to 6.3% from 7.0%, due to the following:
| In millions | Operating Income | Operating Margin | ||||||||||||
| March 31, 2024 | $ | 13.0 | 7.0 | % | ||||||||||
| Inflation and investment spending in excess of pricing and productivity | (0.6) | (0.4) | % | |||||||||||
| Volume / product mix | 0.6 | 0.3 | % | |||||||||||
| Currency exchange rates | (1.0) | (0.4) | % | |||||||||||
| Acquisitions | 0.5 | 0.1 | % | |||||||||||
| Acquisition / integration/ restructuring expenses | (0.8) | (0.3) | % | |||||||||||
| March 31, 2025 | $ | 11.7 | 6.3 | % |
The decrease in Segment operating income and Segment operating margin was primarily driven by the unfavorable impact from foreign currency exchange rate movements, inflation and investment spending in excess of pricing and productivity, and higher acquisition, integration and restructuring expenses. These decreases were partially offset by the favorable impact from volume/product mix and recent acquisitions.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity Outlook, Sources and Uses
Our primary source of liquidity is cash provided by operating activities. Cash provided by operating activities is used to invest in new product development and fund capital expenditures and working capital requirements. Our ability to generate cash from operating activities, our unused borrowing capacity under the Revolving Facility and our access to the capital and credit markets enable us to fund these capital needs, execute our long-term growth strategies and return value to our shareholders. Further, our business operates with strong operating cash flows, low leverage and low capital intensity, providing financial flexibility.
Our short-term financing needs primarily consist of working capital requirements, restructuring initiatives, capital spending, dividend payments and principal and interest payments on our long-term debt. Long-term financing needs depend largely on potential growth opportunities, including potential acquisitions, repayment or refinancing of our long-term obligations and repurchases of our ordinary shares. Of our total outstanding indebtedness as of March 31, 2025, approximately 90% incurs fixed-rate interest and is therefore not exposed to the risk of rising variable interest rates.
Based upon our operations, existing cash balances and unused borrowing capacity under the Revolving Facility, as of March 31, 2025, we expect our cash flows from operations will be sufficient to maintain a sound financial position and liquidity and to meet our current financing needs for at least the next 12 months. Further, we do not anticipate any covenant compliance challenges with any of our outstanding indebtedness for at least the next 12 months. We also believe existing borrowing capacity under the Credit Facilities and access to credit and capital markets are sufficient to achieve our longer-term strategic plans.
The following table reflects the major categories of cash flows for the three months ended March 31. For additional details, see the Condensed and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows in the Condensed and Consolidated Financial Statements.
| In millions | 2025 | 2024 | |||||||||
| Net cash provided by operating activities | $ | 104.5 | $ | 51.1 | |||||||
| Net cash used in investing activities | (28.0) | (43.4) | |||||||||
| Net cash used in financing activities | (91.3) | (80.0) |
Operating Activities: Net cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2025, increased $53.4 million compared to the same period in 2024, primarily driven by higher net earnings and lower cash used for working capital.
Investing Activities: Net cash used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2025, decreased $15.4 million compared to the same period in 2024, primarily due to lower capital expenditures and less cash used for acquisitions.
Financing Activities: Net cash used in financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2025, increased $11.3 million compared to the same period in 2024, primarily due to an increase in cash used for other financing activities.

We have an unsecured credit agreement in place, consisting of a $250.0 million term loan facility (the “Term Facility”), of which $209.4 million was outstanding at March 31, 2025, and a $750.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility” and, together with the Term Facility, the “Credit Facilities”), of which no balance was outstanding at March 31, 2025.
The Term Facility requires quarterly principal payments through its maturity on November 18, 2026. Future payments total $18.8 million for the remainder of 2025 and $190.6 million due in 2026. We repaid $3.1 million of principal on the Term Facility during the three months ended March 31, 2025. The Revolving Facility matures on May 20, 2029 and includes up to $100.0 million for the issuance of letters of credit. We had $18.5 million of letters of credit outstanding at March 31, 2025. Borrowings under the Revolving Facility may be repaid at any time without premium or penalty, and amounts repaid may be reborrowed.
Outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facilities accrue interest, at our option, equal to either: (i) a Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") rate plus an applicable margin or (ii) a base rate plus the applicable margin. The applicable margin ranges from 0.875% to 1.375% depending on our credit ratings. At March 31, 2025, our outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facilities accrued interest at SOFR plus a margin of 1.225%, resulting in an interest rate of 5.550%. The Credit Facilities also contain negative and affirmative covenants and events of default that, among other things, limit or restrict our ability to enter into certain transactions. In addition, the Credit Facilities require us to comply with a maximum leverage ratio as defined in the credit agreement. As of March 31, 2025, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants under the credit agreement.
As of March 31, 2025, we also have $400.0 million outstanding of 3.550% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “3.550% Senior Notes”), $600.0 million outstanding of 5.411% Senior Notes due 2032 (the “5.411% Senior Notes”), $400.0 million outstanding of 5.600% Senior Notes due 2034 (the "5.600% Senior Notes"), and $400.0 million outstanding of 3.500% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “3.500% Senior Notes”, and all four senior notes collectively, the "Senior Notes"). The 3.550% Senior Notes and 3.500% Senior Notes both require semi-annual interest payments on April 1 and October 1 of each year and mature on October 1, 2027 and October 1, 2029, respectively. The 5.411% Senior Notes require semi-annual interest payments on January 1 and July 1 of each year and mature on July 1, 2032. The 5.600% Senior Notes require semi-annual interest payments on May 29 and November 29 of each year and mature on May 29, 2034.
Historically, the majority of our earnings were considered to be permanently reinvested in jurisdictions where we have made, and intend to continue to make, substantial investments to support the ongoing development and growth of our global operations. At March 31, 2025, we analyzed our working capital requirements and the potential tax liabilities that would be
incurred if certain subsidiaries made distributions and concluded that no material changes to our historic permanent reinvestment assertions are required.
Defined Benefit Plans
Our investment objective in managing defined benefit plan assets is to ensure that all present and future benefit obligations are met as they come due. We seek to achieve this goal while trying to mitigate volatility in plan funded status, contributions and expense by better matching the characteristics of the plan assets to that of the plan liabilities. Global asset allocation decisions are based on a dynamic approach whereby a plan’s allocation to fixed income assets increases as the funded status increases. We monitor plan funded status, asset allocation and the impact of market conditions on our defined benefit plans regularly in addition to investment manager performance. For further details on pension plan activity, see Note 10 to the Condensed and Consolidated Financial Statements.
For a further discussion of Liquidity and Capital Resources, refer to Part II, Item 7, "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Guarantor Financial Information
Allegion US Hold Co is or was, as applicable, the issuer of the 3.550% Senior Notes, 5.411% Senior Notes, and 5.600% Senior Notes and is the guarantor of the 3.500% Senior Notes. Allegion plc (the “Parent”) is or was, as applicable, the issuer of the 3.500% Senior Notes and is or was, as applicable, the guarantor of the 3.550% Senior Notes, 5.411% Senior Notes, and 5.600% Senior Notes. Allegion US Hold Co is directly or indirectly 100% owned by the Parent and each of the guarantees of Allegion US Hold Co and the Parent is full and unconditional and joint and several.
The 3.550% Senior Notes, 5.411% Senior Notes, and 5.600% Senior Notes are or were, as applicable, senior unsecured obligations of Allegion US Hold Co and rank equally with all of Allegion US Hold Co’s existing and future senior unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. The guarantee of the 3.550% Senior Notes, 5.411% Senior Notes, and 5.600% Senior Notes is or was, as applicable, the senior unsecured obligation of the Parent and ranks equally with all of the Parent’s existing and future senior unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. The 3.500% Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Parent and rank equally with all of the Parent’s existing and future senior unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. The guarantee of the 3.500% Senior Notes is the senior unsecured obligation of Allegion US Hold Co and ranks equally with all of Allegion US Hold Co's existing and future senior unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness.
Each guarantee is effectively subordinated to any secured indebtedness of the guarantor to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. The Senior Notes are structurally subordinated to indebtedness and other liabilities of the subsidiaries of the guarantor, none of which guarantee the notes. The obligations of the guarantor under its guarantee are limited as necessary to prevent such guarantee from constituting a fraudulent conveyance under applicable law and, therefore, are limited to the amount that the applicable guarantor could guarantee without such guarantee constituting a fraudulent conveyance; this limitation, however, may not be effective to prevent such guarantee from constituting a fraudulent conveyance. If the guarantee was rendered voidable, it could be subordinated by a court to all other indebtedness (including guarantees and other contingent liabilities) of the applicable guarantor, and, depending on the amount of such indebtedness, the applicable guarantor’s liability on its guarantee could be reduced to zero. In such an event, the notes would be structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of the guarantor.
For further details, terms and conditions of the Senior Notes refer to the Company’s Forms 8-K filed October 2, 2017, September 27, 2019, June 22, 2022, and May 29, 2024.
The following tables present the summarized financial information specified in Rule 1-02(bb)(1) of Regulation S-X for each issuer and guarantor. The summarized financial information has been prepared in accordance with Rule 13-01 of Regulation S-X.

Critical Accounting Policies
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are based upon our Condensed and Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with those accounting principles requires management to use judgments in making estimates and assumptions based on the relevant information available at the end of each period. These estimates and assumptions have a significant effect on reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses, as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities because they result primarily from the need to make estimates and assumptions on matters that are inherently uncertain. Actual results may differ from estimates.
Management believes there have been no significant changes during the three months ended March 31, 2025, to the items we disclosed as our critical accounting policies in "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

We do not undertake to update any forward-looking statements, except as required by applicable law.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
There have been no material changes in our exposure to market risk during the first quarter of 2025.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded as of March 31, 2025, that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that all material information required to be filed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q has been recorded,
processed, summarized and reported when required and the information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
