As cyber threats continue to evolve, cybersecurity and data protection laws and regulations continue to develop in the U.S. and globally, and our business continues to move toward increased online connectivity within our information systems and through more Internet-enabled [added: and automated or AI-embedded] products and offerings, we expect to expend additional resources to continue to build out our compliance programs, strengthen our information security, data protection and business continuity measures, and investigate and remediate vulnerabilities.
These measures may not be effective in capturing intellectual property rights, and they may not prevent [removed: their] [added: our businesses'] intellectual property from being challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, particularly in countries where intellectual property rights are not highly developed or protected.

The following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") is intended to help the reader understand our results of operations and financial condition for the year ended December 31, [removed: 2024, 2023 and 2022.][added: 2025.]
For the year ended December 31, [removed: 2024,] [added: 2025,] consolidated revenue was [removed: $7.7] [added: $8.1] billion, an increase of [removed: $61.4] [added: $346.7] million or [removed: 0.8%,] [added: 4.5%,] as compared to the prior year.
The increase is driven by acquisition-related growth of [removed: 3.0%, partially offset by a disposition-related decline] [added: 2.6%, organic revenue growth] of [removed: 2.0%] [added: 1.6%] and [removed: an unfavorable] [added: a favorable] impact from foreign currency translation of [removed: 0.2%.][added: 1.0%, partially offset by a disposition-related decline of 0.7%.]

Restructuring and other costs were primarily related to [removed: headcount reductions and product line and other] exit costs [removed: in the Clean Energy & Fueling] and [added: headcount reductions across all segments, most notably within the] Climate & Sustainability Technologies [added: and Clean Energy & Fueling] segments.
Other [removed: costs (benefits)] [added: costs, net of $15.2 million] were primarily due to non-cash asset impairment charges and reorganization costs in the Climate & Sustainability Technologies and Imaging & Identification segments, respectively.

For more information regarding our consolidated results, segment results, and liquidity and capital resources for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2023 refer to Part II Item 7 "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in the Company's 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The results were primarily driven by robust trends in our secular-growth-exposed end markets, strategic pricing initiatives and acquisitions within the Clean Energy & Fueling and Pumps & Process Solutions segments.
The bookings increase was broad-based across the portfolio, with each segment except Engineered Products posting year-over-year growth.
Other costs (benefits) include $4.0 million in costs associated with a product line exit and $6.3 million in costs associated with a footprint reduction, both in our Climate & Sustainability Technologies segment.

Organic revenue growth of 1.6% is primarily driven by robust trends in our secular-growth-exposed end markets and above and below-ground retail fueling and pricing actions, partially offset by lower volumes in our vehicle service business and project timing in retail refrigeration equipment and services.

Gain on dispositions for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were $4.6 million and $597.8 million, respectively.
Our effective tax rate differs from the U.S. statutory tax rate primarily driven by mix of earnings and reorganizations.
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill was enacted into law, introducing changes to the U.S. tax code, including making permanent certain provisions originally enacted under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, such as 100% bonus depreciation and the immediate expensing of domestic research and development costs.
The changes do not have a material impact to our consolidated financial statements.

Earnings from continuing operations decreased primarily due to the after-tax gain on dispositions of De-Sta-Co and a minority owned equity method investment totaling $462.4 million in the prior year, partially offset by higher operating earnings in the current period.
Loss from discontinued operations, net for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $3.5 million.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
The results were driven by acquisitions, solid demand across most end markets and strategic pricing initiatives.
This included organic bookings growth of 6.5% and acquisition-related growth of 3.2%, partially offset by a disposition-related decline of 2.1% and an unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation of 0.3%.
This sale resulted in a pre-tax gain on disposition of $530.3 million, included within the consolidated statements of earnings for the year ended December 31, 2024.
On September 30, 2024, a minority owned equity method investment held within the Climate & Sustainability Technologies segment was sold and the Company received its proportionate share of the proceeds amounting to $93.0 million.
The sale resulted in a preliminary pre-tax gain of $67.4 million, included within the consolidated statements of earnings for the year ended December 31, 2024.
On October 8, 2024, the Company completed the sale of the Environmental Solutions Group ("ESG") business, an operating company within the Engineered Products segment, for total consideration, net of cash transferred, of $2.0 billion.
This sale resulted in a preliminary pre-tax gain on disposition of $1.6 billion, included within earnings from discontinued operations, net in the consolidated statements of earnings for the year ended December 31, 2024.
For all periods presented, the results of ESG prior to the sale are classified as discontinued operations as the disposal represented a strategic shift with a major impact on our operations and financial results.
The discussion within this MD&A, unless otherwise noted, relates solely to our continuing operations.
The total number of shares ultimately repurchased under the ASR Program was based on the volume-weighted average share price of Dover's common stock during the calculation period of the accelerated share repurchase program, less a discount, which was $174.26 over the term of the ASR Program.
During the year ended December 31, 2024, exclusive of the ASR Program, there were no share repurchases.

Organic revenue remained flat as pricing actions and broad-based demand across most of the portfolio were offset by lower shipments of beverage can-making equipment, polymer processing equipment, and European heat exchangers.
Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2023 decreased $159.7 million, or 2.0% to $7.7 billion compared with 2022.
Organic revenue decline of 2.8% was primarily due to general reduction in our customers' and distribution channels' inventory levels that resulted from lead time normalization and higher inventory carrying costs driven by interest rate increases.
Acquisition-related growth increased by 1.0% primarily driven by our Pumps & Process Solutions segment, offset by an unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation of 0.2%.
Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2023, decreased $37.4 million, or 1.3%, to $2.9 billion compared with 2022, primarily due to lower volumes across some end markets, partially offset by positive market conditions in certain secular growth-exposed businesses, as well as pricing, productivity initiatives and restructuring actions.
Gross profit margin increased 30 basis points to 37.3% as compared to the prior year driven by benefits from pricing, productivity and restructuring actions, partially offset by lower volumes across some of the Company's businesses.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2023 increased $22.9 million, or 1.4% to $1.6 billion compared with 2022, primarily driven by increased restructuring, employee compensation and benefits and acquisition-related transaction and integration costs, partially offset by lower contract labor costs.
As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses increased 70 basis points to 21.4%, reflecting a decrease in the revenue base.
For the year ended December 31, 2023, interest expense, net of interest income, increased $5.8 million, or 5.2%, to $117.8 million compared with 2022 primarily driven by increased higher average interest rates since the prior year, partially offset by decreased commercial paper borrowings.
There were no significant dispositions in the years ended 2023 and 2022.
For the year ended December 31, 2023, other income decreased compared to 2022 due to the decrease in non-service pension benefit, partially offset by increased non-operational income and increased earnings from our equity method investments.
The 2024 tax rate was primarily driven by gains on dispositions.
The 2023 rate was primarily driven by the release of a valuation allowance against non-U.S. tax loss carryforwards mainly related to an internal reorganization, partially offset by accrual of withholding taxes on current and future repatriation of certain foreign earnings.The 2022 rate was primarily driven by favorable audit resolutions, including a reduction to income taxes previously recorded related to the Tax Cut and Jobs Act.
Earnings from continuing operations increased primarily from gain on dispositions, pricing actions and benefits from productivity initiatives, partially offset by lower volumes across some of the Company's businesses, and increased selling, general and administrative expenses.
For the year ended December 31, 2023, earnings from continuing operations decreased $46.0 million, or 4.7% to $943.9 million or $6.71 per diluted share compared with earnings from continuing operations of $989.9 million or $6.89 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Earnings from continuing operations decreased primarily due to lower volumes across some of the Company's businesses and increased selling, general and administrative expenses, partially offset by customer pricing actions and benefits from productivity initiatives.
For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, the historical results of ESG were presented as discontinued operations as the sale represented a strategic shift that will have a major impact on our operations and financials results.
This metric is an important measure of performance and an indicator of revenue order trends.

We continually evaluate and pursue opportunities to improve efficiency, margin and return on capital, which we accomplish through continuous, effective management and productivity initiatives, automation and productivity capital expenditures, restructuring, product complexity reduction, improvement in our footprint utilization, strategic pricing, and ongoing portfolio management.
The build-out of these functions is largely complete, delivering cost and process efficiencies to the Company and enabling scale benefits with future growth.
These functions remain continuously focused on extracting productivity gains across the businesses and driving value creation.
These capabilities are either embedded in monitoring-as-a-service or other service offerings provided to customers by our operating companies.
Automation engineers drive automation and efficiency inside our factories through digital technologies and in our business processes.
Product security engineers focus on improving the security posture of our operating companies' commercial offerings.
For example, Systech, part of the Imaging & Identification segment, and a market leader in serialization, traceability, and brand-protection solutions, launched the artAI solution in collaboration with Dover Digital which provided AI expertise.
artAI is a cloud-based, AI-powered authentication tool that detects counterfeiting and supply-chain diversion.
Using machine vision and machine learning, artAI creates a digital blueprint of packaging artwork for precise product identification, and its forensic analytics assist manufacturers in identifying trends and strengthen product security and brand-protection programs.
Another example is with Dover Food Retail, an operating company within our Climate & Sustainability Technologies segment, a market leader in CO₂ refrigeration solutions.

We have implemented numerous productivity initiatives to maximize our efficiency, such as supply chain integration, shared services, lean manufacturing principles and production automation, footprint optimization, and product complexity reduction, as well as workplace safety initiatives to help ensure the health and welfare of our employees.
We continually expand initiatives to extract productivity gains across the businesses and realize savings.
We have been steadily investing in the build out and deployment of the above four enterprise capabilities in the past several years, including organically investing and expanding the staff of experts and support personnel in key centers of excellence globally.
We pragmatically consider such opportunities as part of our ongoing portfolio management and review processes, and execute divestitures if the value created by the divestiture is
During 2022 and 2023, there were no material dispositions.
Markets for multiple raw materials saw significant volatility and supply chain disruptions throughout 2021 into 2023.
Although most commodity and logistics costs have returned to historical norms, volatility is still a risk due to economic uncertainties and supply side dynamics.
These situations could still negatively impact profitability of some businesses as we were required to seek alternative sources of supply at higher costs or interrupt our normal manufacturing process flow leading to less efficient output and cost.
For example, OPW, an operating company within the Clean Energy & Fueling segment, announced the launch of its RegO Presto-Link© device and RegO application integration during 2024.
This application streamlines testing processes and enhances safety measures for on-site personnel performing the liquefied petroleum gas container and regulator testing.
The RegO application is integrated with the Presto-Link Bluetooth device, which communicates with RegO Presto-Tap products placed on propane-system components
requiring testing.
This connection enables swift and precise leak detection and pressure readings, eliminating the need for manual recording of results and mitigating the risks associated with human error.
We utilize a global EHS information management system designed to measure and track key metrics and actions pertinent to our health and safety programs.
This software supports our strategy to proactively reduce hazards thereby further enhancing shop floor safety.

(2) On November 10, 2025, the Company entered into a $500.0 million accelerated share repurchase agreement (the "2025 ASR Agreement") with JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. ("JP Morgan") to repurchase its shares in an accelerated share repurchase program (the "2025 ASR Program").
The Company funded the 2025 ASR Program with cash on hand.
Under the terms of the 2025 ASR Agreement, the Company paid JP Morgan $500.0 million on November 12, 2025, and on that date received initial delivery of 2,334,010 shares, representing a substantial majority of the shares expected to be retired over the course of the 2025 ASR Program.
The total number of shares ultimately repurchased under the 2025 ASR Program will be based on the average of the daily volume-weighted average share price of Dover's common stock during the calculation period of the 2025 ASR Program, less a discount and subject to potential adjustments pursuant to the terms of the 2025 ASR Program.
The 2025 ASR Program is scheduled to be completed in the second quarter of 2026, but is subject to early termination in certain circumstances.
There were no share repurchases during the fourth quarter of 2024.

In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, which provides entities the option of a practical expedient in the estimation of credit losses.
The Company expects to adopt this standard as required beginning first quarter of 2026.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software which changes the requirements for when entities may begin capitalizing costs for internal-use software.
The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods.
Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period.
The Company is currently evaluating this ASU to determine its impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Through the third quarter of 2023, approximately 4% of inventories, comprised entirely of ESG inventories, were stated at the lower of cost, determined on the last-in, first-out ("LIFO") basis, or market.
During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company changed the method of accounting for these remaining LIFO inventories to FIFO.
The cumulative effect of the change resulted in a fourth quarter of 2023 pre-tax benefit of $14,448 ($10,796 after-tax) recognized as an increase to earnings from discontinued operations, net within the consolidated statement of earnings for the year ended December 31, 2023 and a corresponding increase in assets of discontinued operations within the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023.
The Company believed the FIFO method was preferable because it better reflected the current value of inventories in the consolidated balance sheet and resulted in a uniform method across its businesses, which in turn provided more useful financial information to the Company's investors and creditors.

The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures.
The amendment requires disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, an amount and description of its composition for other segment items, and interim disclosures of a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets.
During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recorded measurement period adjustments resulting in an increase to the goodwill and purchase price disclosed above of $371 and $250, respectively.

Malema
On July 1, 2022, the Company acquired 99.7% of the equity interests in Malema Engineering Corporation and its related foreign entities ("Malema"), a designer and manufacturer of flow measurement and control instruments serving customers in the biopharmaceutical, semiconductor and industrial sectors, for $223,462, net of cash acquired and inclusive of the impact of measurement period adjustments discussed below, subject to contingent consideration.
During the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company acquired the remaining 0.3% of equity interests in Malema.
The Malema acquisition expands the Company's biopharma single-use production offering within the Pumps & Process Solutions segment.
