NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 and 2025

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

STERIS is a leading global provider of products and services that support patient care with an emphasis on infection prevention. WE HELP OUR CUSTOMERS CREATE A HEALTHIER AND SAFER WORLD by providing innovative healthcare and life science products and services around the globe. We offer our Customers a unique mix of innovative products and services. These include: consumable products, such as detergents, endoscopy accessories, barrier products, instruments and tools; services, including equipment installation and maintenance, microbial reduction of medical devices, instrument and scope repair, laboratory testing, and outsourced reprocessing; capital equipment, such as sterilizers, surgical tables, and automated endoscope reprocessors; and connectivity solutions such as operating room integration.

We operate and report our financial information in three reportable business segments: Healthcare, Applied Sterilization Technologies ("AST"), and Life Sciences. We describe our business segments in Note 10 titled "Business Segment Information."

Our fiscal year ends on March 31. References in this Quarterly Report to a particular "year," "fiscal," "fiscal year," or "year-end" mean our fiscal year. The significant accounting policies applied in preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company are summarized below.

A detailed description of our significant and critical accounting policies, estimates, and assumptions is included in our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2026, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on May 29, 2026. Our significant and critical accounting policies, estimates, and assumptions have not changed materially from March 31, 2026.

Interim Financial Statements

We prepared the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company according to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. This means that they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. Our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements contain all material adjustments (including normal recurring accruals and adjustments) management believes are necessary to fairly state our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented.

These interim consolidated financial statements should be read together with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2026, which was filed with the SEC on May 29, 2026. The Consolidated Balance Sheet at March 31, 2026 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.

Principles of Consolidation

We use the consolidation method to report our investment in our subsidiaries. Therefore, the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. We eliminate intercompany accounts and transactions when we consolidate these financial statements. Investments in equity of unconsolidated affiliates, over which the Company has significant influence, but not control, over the financial and operating polices, are accounted for primarily using the equity method. These investments are immaterial to the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Our reporting currency is United States Dollars (USD). Columns and rows within tables may not add due to rounding. Percentages have been calculated using actual, non-rounded figures.

Use of Estimates

We make certain estimates and assumptions when preparing financial statements according to U.S. GAAP that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the financial statement dates and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. These estimates and assumptions involve judgments with respect to many factors that are difficult to predict and are beyond our control. Actual results could be materially different from these estimates. We revise the estimates and assumptions as new information becomes available. This means that operating results for the three month period ended June 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for future quarters or for the full fiscal year ending March 31, 2027.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)—(Continued)

For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 and 2025

Contract Liabilities

Payments received from Customers are based on invoices or billing schedules as established in contracts with Customers. Deferred revenue is recorded when payment is received in advance of performance under the contract. Deferred revenue is recognized as revenue upon completion of the performance obligation, which generally occurs within one year. During the first three months of fiscal 2027, $33.4 million of the March 31, 2026 deferred revenue balance was recorded as revenue. During the first three months of fiscal 2026, $38.5 million of the March 31, 2025 deferred revenue balance was recorded as revenue.

Refer to Note 7 titled, "Additional Consolidated Balance Sheet Information" for deferred revenue balances.

Remaining Performance Obligations

Remaining performance obligations reflect only the performance obligations related to agreements for which we have a firm commitment from a Customer to purchase, and exclude variable consideration related to unsatisfied performance obligations. With regard to products, these remaining performance obligations include orders for capital equipment and consumables where control of the products has not passed to the Customer. With regard to service, these remaining performance obligations primarily include installation, certification, and outsourced reprocessing services. As of June 30, 2026, the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was approximately $1,541.4 million. We expect to recognize approximately 58% of the transaction price within one year and approximately 32% beyond one year. The remainder has yet to be scheduled for delivery.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards Impacting the Company

Recently Issued Accounting Standards impacting the Company are presented in the following table:

Standard						Date of Issuance						Description						Date of Adoption						Effect on the financial statements or other significant matters
Standards that have been adopted in fiscal 2027
ASU 2025-05 "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets."						July 2025						The standard introduces a practical expedient allowing entities to assume current economic conditions, as of the balance sheet date, remain unchanged when estimating expected credit losses for current trade receivables and contract assets. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, including interim periods.						First Quarter Fiscal 2027						We adopted this standard in fiscal 2027 with no material impact to the consolidated financial statements.
Standards that have not yet been adopted
ASU 2024-03 "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses."						November 2024						The standard provides guidance to enhance disclosures related to the disaggregation of income statement expenses. The standard requires, in the notes to the financial statements, disclosure of specified information about certain costs and expenses which includes purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization included in each relevant expense caption. The standard also requires amounts that are already required to be disclosed under U.S. GAAP in the same disclosure as the other disaggregation requirements, disclosure of a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively, and disclosure of the total amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, an entity's definition of selling expenses. The amendments in this standard are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027.						NA						We are currently assessing the impact of this standard update on our disclosures in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)—(Continued)

For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 and 2025

ASU 2025-06 "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40) Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software						September 2025						The standard removes all references to prescriptive and sequential software development stages and requires entities to begin capitalizing software costs when management has both authorized and committed to funding the software project, and it is probable that the project will both be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. Capitalized internal-use software costs are now subject to the same disclosure requirements as property, plant, and equipment (PPE), even if they are presented as intangible assets or under a different line item. The amendments in this standard are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027 and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted.						NA						We are in the process of evaluating the impact that the standard update will have on our consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2025-10 "Government Grants (Topic 832) Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities"						December 2025						The standard provides authoritative guidance on the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of government grants received by business entities. The standard defines a government grant as a transfer of a monetary or tangible nonmonetary asset from a government to a business entity in a nonexchange transaction and requires a grant to be recognized only when it is probable that the entity will comply with the grant’s conditions and that the grant will be received. The amendments introduce an accounting model largely based on International Accounting Standard (IAS) 20, under which grants related to assets or income are recognized over the periods in which the related costs or expenses are incurred. The standard also amends Topic 832, which previously included only disclosure requirements, and provides guidance on presentation and repayment of grants. The guidance excludes certain transactions such as income tax items, below-market interest rate loans, and government guarantees from its scope. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2028 (including interim periods within those annual periods) for public business entities and one year later for all other entities. Early adoption is permitted.						NA						We are in the process of evaluating the impact that the standard update will have on our consolidated financial statements.

2. RESTRUCTURING

In May 2024, we adopted and announced a targeted restructuring plan (the "Restructuring Plan"). The Restructuring Plan includes a strategic shift in our approach to the Healthcare surgical business in Europe, as well as other actions including the impairment of an internally developed X-ray accelerator, product rationalizations and facility consolidations. Approximately 300 positions have been eliminated. These restructuring actions were designed to enhance profitability and improve efficiency. As of March 31, 2026, the execution of our Restructuring Plan was substantially complete.

On October 7, 2024, STERIS plc (“Parent”), STERIS Corporation ("Corporation"), STERIS Limited ("Limited"), and STERIS Irish FinCo Unlimited Company (“FinCo”), each as a borrower and guarantor, entered into a credit agreement with various financial institutions as lenders, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”) providing for a $1,100.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), which replaced a prior credit agreement, dated as of March 19, 2021.

The Revolving Credit Agreement provides for revolving credit borrowings, swing line borrowings and letters of credit, with sublimits for swing line borrowings and letters of credit. The Revolving Credit Agreement may be increased in specified circumstances by up to $625.0 million in the discretion of the lenders. The Revolving Credit Agreement matures on the date that is five years after October 7, 2024, and all unpaid borrowings, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, are repayable on that date. The Revolving Credit Facility bears interest from time to time, at either the Base Rate or the Relevant Rate, as defined in and calculated under and as in effect from time to time under the Revolving Credit Agreement, plus the Applicable Margin, as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement. The Applicable Margin is determined based on the Debt Rating of Parent, as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement. Base Rate Advances are payable quarterly in arrears and Term Benchmark Advances are payable at the end of the relevant interest period therefor, but in no event less frequently than every three months. Swingline borrowings bear interest at a rate to be agreed by the applicable swingline lender and the applicable borrower, subject to a cap in the case of swingline borrowings denominated in U.S. Dollars equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Advances plus the Facility Fee. There is no premium or penalty for prepayment of Base Rate Advances, but prepayments of Term Benchmark Advances are generally subject to a breakage fee. Advances may be extended

Some limited guidance has been issued clarifying the application of some of the provisions in this legislation, and more guidance is expected to be issued in the near future with respect to a number of income tax provisions in the OBBBA. The law did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements for the three month period ended June 30, 2026, and we do not expect it to have a material

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)—(Continued)

For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 and 2025

impact on our effective tax rate in future years. However, we are unable to fully predict the overall impact that the OBBBA and additional guidance may have on our business. Furthermore, some non-U.S. jurisdictions have raised tax rates, and it is reasonable to expect that other global taxing authorities will be reviewing current legislation for potential modifications.

Our effective tax rate is affected by (i) the tax rates in Ireland (our country of domicile), the United States, and other jurisdictions in which we operate, and (ii) the relative amount of income before income taxes by geography.

The effective income tax rates for the three month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were 26.5% and 23.3%, respectively. The fiscal 2027 effective tax rates increased when compared to fiscal 2026, primarily due to unfavorable changes in discrete items.

Income tax expense is provided on an interim basis based upon our estimate of the annual effective income tax rate, adjusted each quarter for discrete items. In determining the estimated annual effective income tax rate, we analyze various factors, including projections of our annual earnings and taxing jurisdictions in which the earnings will be generated, the impact of state and local income taxes, our ability to use tax credits and net operating loss carry forwards, and available tax planning alternatives.

We operate in numerous taxing jurisdictions and are subject to regular examinations by various United States federal, state and local, as well as foreign jurisdictions. We are no longer subject to United States federal examinations for years before fiscal 2018 and, with limited exceptions, we are no longer subject to United States state and local, or non-United States, income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before fiscal 2018. We remain subject to tax authority audits in various jurisdictions wherever we do business.

In November 2023, we received two Notices of Deficiency from the IRS regarding the previously disclosed deemed dividend inclusions and associated withholding tax matter. The notices relate to the fiscal and calendar year 2018. The IRS adjustments would result in a cumulative tax liability of approximately $50.0 million, excluding any interest and penalties, if ultimately assessed. We are contesting the IRS’s assertions and have filed petitions with the U.S. Tax Court. We have not established reserves related to these notices. An unfavorable outcome is not expected to have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial position but could be material to our consolidated results of operations and cash flows for any one period.

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

We are, and will likely continue to be, involved in a number of legal proceedings, government investigations, and claims, which we believe generally arise in the course of our business, given our size, history, complexity, and the nature of our business, products, Customers, regulatory environment, and industries in which we participate. These legal proceedings, investigations and claims generally involve a variety of legal theories and allegations, including, without limitation, personal injury (e.g., slip and falls, burns, vehicle accidents), product liability or regulation (e.g., based on product operation or claimed malfunction, failure to warn, failure to meet specification, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements), product exposure (e.g., claimed exposure to chemicals, gases, asbestos, contaminants, radiation), property damage (e.g., claimed damage due to leaking equipment, fire, vehicles, chemicals), commercial claims (e.g., breach of contract, economic loss, warranty, misrepresentation), financial (e.g., taxes, reporting), employment (e.g., wrongful termination, discrimination, benefits matters), and other claims for damage and relief.

We record a liability for such contingencies to the extent we conclude that their occurrence is both probable and estimable and believe we have adequately reserved for our current litigation and claims that are probable and estimable. In the event that the estimate of a probable loss is a range and no amount within the range is more likely, we accrue the minimum amount of the range. We consider many factors in making these assessments, including the professional judgment of experienced members of management and our legal counsel. We have made estimates as to the likelihood of unfavorable outcomes and the amounts of such potential losses. Further, we believe that the ultimate outcome of pending lawsuits and claims will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations taken as a whole. Due to their inherent uncertainty, however, there can be no assurance of the ultimate outcome or effect of current or future litigation, investigations, claims or other proceedings. For certain types of claims, we presently maintain insurance coverage for bodily injury and third party property damage and other liability coverages in amounts and with retentions and deductibles that we believe are prudent, and we may also have contractual indemnification rights against certain liabilities, but there can be no assurance that either will be applicable or adequate to cover adverse outcomes of claims or legal proceedings against us. We record expected recoveries under applicable contracts when we are assured of recovery.

Civil, criminal, regulatory or other proceedings involving our products or services, including the matters discussed herein, could possibly result in judgments, settlements or administrative or judicial decrees requiring us, among other actions, to pay damages or fines or effect recalls, or be subject to other governmental, Customer or other third party claims or remedies, which could materially affect our business, performance, prospects, value, financial condition, and results of operations. Further, the Company may incur material defense costs as a result of such proceedings, which may also divert management attention from other priorities.

From time to time, STERIS is also involved in legal proceedings as a plaintiff involving contract, patent protection, and other claims asserted by us. Gains, if any, from these proceedings are recognized when they are realized.

In addition, the Company may pursue opportunities to recover amounts previously paid in connection with certain legal or regulatory matters, tariffs or similar governmental charges. During the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company received $3.9 million related to amounts previously paid pursuant to the International Economic Emergency Powers Act ("IEEPA"), consisting of $3.7 million of refunds recorded in Cost of product revenues and $0.2 million of interest recorded in Interest and miscellaneous income. As of June 30, 2026, approximately $23 million of IEEPA tariffs have not yet been refunded, and no financial statement impact has been recognized with respect to these amounts.

Illinois EO Litigation Settlement

A subsidiary of the Company was sued in Illinois state court by individual plaintiffs who worked or resided near a facility in Lake County, Illinois, where the subsidiary provided sterilization services using ethylene oxide (“EO”) from January 2005 to September 2008. The plaintiffs filed separate suits in which each alleged that they were diagnosed with one or more types of cancer, allegedly resulting from exposure to EO emissions from the facility into the ambient air.

On March 3, 2025, the Company entered into binding confidential term sheets ("Term Sheets") with plaintiffs’ counsel, as well as settlement agreements with several plaintiffs in cases which were at the time scheduled for trial in fiscal 2026. On October 29, 2025, the Company entered into binding confidential settlement agreements ("Settlement Agreements") with plaintiffs' counsel, containing terms and provisions consistent with the Term Sheets.

Pursuant to the Settlement Agreements, the Company agreed to pay up to $48.2 million to settle claims. We recorded a charge for this amount in fiscal 2025, and the remaining liability is included in the "Accrued expenses and other" line within our Consolidated Balance Sheets. None of the Settlement Agreements are an admission of liability or that emissions from the

For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 and 2025

Waukegan, Illinois facility ever posed a safety hazard to the people who live or work in the surrounding areas. The Settlement Agreements established a claims administration process that includes guidelines and procedures for administering individual settlements.

Subsequent to quarter-end, the Company made payments, consistent with amounts previously accrued, pursuant to the Settlement Agreements. As of July 31, 2026, substantially all payment obligations of the Company under the Settlement Agreements have been satisfied, and the claims administration process has been largely completed. Accordingly, substantially all of the personal injury claims subject to the Settlement Agreements have been dismissed with prejudice.

Additional Information

For additional information, see the following portions of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2026, which was filed with the SEC on May 29, 2026, Item 1 titled "Business - Information with respect to our Business in General - Government Regulation" and the "Risk Factors" in Item 1A titled "Product and service related regulations and claims."

We are subject to taxation from United States federal, state and local, and foreign jurisdictions. Tax positions are settled primarily through the completion of audits within each individual jurisdiction or the closing of statutes of limitation. Changes in applicable tax law or other events may also require us to revise past estimates. We describe income taxes further in Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements titled, “Income Taxes” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

10. BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION

We operate and report our financial information in three reportable business segments: Healthcare, AST, and Life Sciences. Non-allocated operating costs that support the entire Company and items not indicative of operating trends are excluded from segment operating income.

Our Healthcare segment provides a comprehensive offering for healthcare providers worldwide, focused on sterile processing departments and procedural centers, such as operating rooms and endoscopy suites. Our products and services range from infection prevention consumables and capital equipment, as well as services to maintain that equipment; to the repair of re-usable procedural instruments; to outsourced instrument reprocessing services. In addition, our procedural products also include endoscopy accessories, instruments, and capital equipment infrastructure used primarily in operating rooms, ambulatory surgery centers, endoscopy suites, and other procedural areas.

Our AST segment supports medical device and pharmaceutical manufacturers through a global network of contract sterilization and laboratory testing facilities, and integrated sterilization equipment and control systems. Our technology-neutral offering supports Customers every step of the way, from testing through sterilization.

Our Life Sciences segment provides a comprehensive offering of products and services designed to support biopharmaceutical and medical device research and manufacturing facilities, in particular those focused on aseptic manufacturing. Our portfolio includes a full suite of capital equipment, consumable products, equipment maintenance and specialty services.

Our chief operating decision maker ("CODM") is our President and Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"). The CEO is responsible for performance assessment and resource allocation. The CEO regularly receives discrete financial information about each reportable segment and uses this information to assess performance and allocate resources. This information includes Revenues and Cost of revenues; Selling, general, and administrative expenses; and Research and development expenses for each reportable segment.

We disclose a measure of segment income that is consistent with the way management operates and views the business. The accounting policies for reportable segments are the same as those for the consolidated Company.

For the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, revenues from a single Customer did not represent ten percent or more of the Healthcare, AST or Life Sciences segment revenues.

Additional information regarding our segments is included in our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2026, which was filed with the SEC on May 29, 2026.

11. SHARES AND PREFERRED SHARES

Ordinary shares

We calculate basic earnings per share based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding. We calculate diluted earnings per share based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of share equivalents calculated using the treasury stock method. The following is a summary of shares and share equivalents outstanding used in the calculations of basic and diluted earnings per share:

												Three Months Ended June 30,
(shares in millions)																		2026						2025
Weighted average shares outstanding—basic																		97.6						98.4
Dilutive effect of share equivalents																		0.3						0.5
Weighted average shares outstanding and share equivalents—diluted																		97.9						98.8

Options to purchase the following number of shares were outstanding but excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because the combined exercise prices, unamortized fair values, and assumed tax benefits upon exercise were greater than the average market price for the shares during the periods, so including these options would be anti-dilutive:

												Three Months Ended June 30,
(shares in millions)																		2026						2025
Number of share options																		1.0						0.6

Additional Authorized Shares

The Company has an additional authorized share capital of 1,000,000 preferred shares of $0.001 par value each, plus 25,000 deferred ordinary shares of €1.00 par value each, in order to satisfy minimum statutory capital requirements for all Irish public limited companies.

12. REPURCHASES OF ORDINARY SHARES

On May 3, 2023 our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program (the "Outgoing Repurchase Program") for the purchase of up to $500.0 million aggregate purchase amount (exclusive of fees, commissions, and other charges), with no specified expiration date. Under the Outgoing Repurchase Program, the Company could repurchase its shares from time to time through open market purchases, including 10b5-1 plans. It also permitted share repurchases to be activated, suspended or discontinued at any time.

On May 5, 2026, our Board of Directors terminated the Outgoing Repurchase Program and authorized a new share repurchase program (the "New Repurchase Program") for the purchase of up to $1,000.0 million aggregate purchase amount (exclusive of fees, commissions, and other charges).

Under the New Repurchase Program, we may repurchase our shares from time to time through open market purchases, including 10b5-1 plans. Any share repurchases may be activated, suspended or discontinued at any time. There is no limitation to the number of shares that can be repurchased in a year and there is no expiration date for the New Repurchase Program.

During the first three months of fiscal 2027, we repurchased 0.5 million of our ordinary shares for the aggregate purchase amount of $100.0 million (exclusive of fees, commissions, and other charges) pursuant to authorizations, under the New Repurchase Program. During the first three months of fiscal 2026, we had no share repurchase activity under the Outgoing Repurchase Program.

During the first three months of fiscal 2027, we obtained 0.1 million of our ordinary shares in the aggregate purchase amount of $15.5 million in connection with share-based compensation award programs. During the first three months of fiscal 2026, we obtained 0.1 million of our ordinary shares in the aggregate amount of $10.6 million in connection with share-based compensation award programs.

As of June 30, 2026, there was $900.0 million aggregate purchase amount (exclusive of fees, commissions, and other charges) of remaining availability under the New Repurchase Program.

13. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

We maintain a long-term incentive plan that makes available shares for grants, at the discretion of the Board of Directors or Compensation and Organizational Development Committee of the Board of Directors, to officers, directors, and key employees in the form of stock options, restricted shares, restricted share units, stock appreciation rights and share grants. We satisfy share award incentives through the issuance of new ordinary shares. In recent years, grants have been limited to stock options, restricted shares, and restricted share units.

Stock option awards to employees generally vest and become nonforfeitable in increments of 25% per year over a four-year period, with full vesting four years after the date of grant. Historically, restricted stock awards to employee recipients generally cliff vested on the fourth anniversary of the grant date if the recipient remained in continuous employment through that date. Beginning with fiscal 2024 grants, Company restricted stock (and restricted stock units) generally cliff vest over a three year period after the grant date. However, employees who are grantees of restricted stock and have attained age 55 and been employed for at least five years at the time of the grant or meet these criteria during the term of the grant and are employed in the U.S. or in a few other foreign jurisdictions, or employees who have 25 years of service at the time of grant or meet that criterion during the term of the grant, will be subject to installment vesting rules over the applicable vesting period. Awards to certain employees in the U.S. or a few other jurisdictions may provide for continued vesting after “retirement,” if certain conditions are met. As of June 30, 2026, 1.3 million ordinary shares remained available for grant under the long-term incentive plan.

The fair value of share-based stock option compensation awards was estimated at their grant date using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. This model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable, characteristics that are not present in our option grants. If the model permitted consideration of the unique characteristics of employee stock options, the resulting estimate of the fair value of the stock options could be different. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in our Consolidated Statements of Income. The expense is classified as Cost of revenues or Selling, general, and administrative expenses in a manner consistent with the employee’s compensation and benefits.

For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 and 2025

The following weighted average assumptions were used for options granted during the first three months of fiscal 2027 and 2026:

						Fiscal 2027						Fiscal 2026
Risk-free interest rate						4.02		%				4.03		%
Expected life of options						6.1 years						6.0 years
Expected dividend yield of stock						1.10		%				1.11		%
Expected volatility of stock						28.69		%				28.19		%

The risk-free interest rate is based upon the U.S. Treasury yield curve. The expected life of options is reflective of historical experience, vesting schedules and contractual terms. The expected dividend yield of stock represents our best estimate of the expected future dividend yield. The expected volatility of stock is derived by referring to our historical stock prices over a time frame similar to that of the expected life of the grant. An estimated forfeiture rate of 1.92% and 2.21% was applied in fiscal 2027 and 2026, respectively. This rate is calculated based upon historical activity and represents an estimate of the granted options not expected to vest. If actual forfeitures differ from this calculated rate, we may be required to make additional adjustments to compensation expense in future periods. The assumptions used above are reviewed at the time of each significant option grant, or at least annually.

A summary of share option activity is as follows:

						Number of Options						Weighted Average Exercise Price Per Share						Average Remaining Contractual Term						Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in millions)
Outstanding at March 31, 2026						1,716,867						$	204.51
Granted						214,844						230.74
Exercised						(18,162)						70.81
Forfeited						(563)						219.97
Outstanding at June 30, 2026						1,912,986						$	208.82					5.9 years						$	38.6
Exercisable at June 30, 2026						1,406,339						$	196.38					4.9 years						$	38.6

We estimate that 0.5 million of the non-vested stock options outstanding at June 30, 2026 will ultimately vest.

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pre-tax difference between the $210.57 closing price of our ordinary shares on June 30, 2026 over the exercise prices of the stock options, multiplied by the number of options outstanding or outstanding and exercisable, as applicable. The aggregate intrinsic value is not recorded for financial accounting purposes and the value changes daily based on the daily changes in the fair market value of our ordinary shares.

The total intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the first three months of fiscal 2027 and fiscal 2026 was $2.6 million and $9.4 million, respectively. Net cash proceeds from the exercise of stock options were $1.3 million and $9.3 million for the first three months of fiscal 2027 and fiscal 2026, respectively.

The weighted average grant date fair value of stock option grants was $60.17 and $68.44 for the first three months of fiscal 2027 and fiscal 2026, respectively.

Non-vested at June 30, 2026						457,693						29,836						$	223.51

Restricted shares and restricted share unit grants are valued based on the closing stock price at the grant date. The value of restricted shares and units that vested during the first three months of fiscal 2027 at the time of grant was $46.1 million.

As of June 30, 2026, there was a total of $85.9 million in unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation granted under our share-based compensation plans. We expect to recognize the cost over a weighted average period of 1.6 years.

14. FINANCIAL AND OTHER GUARANTEES

We generally offer a limited parts and labor warranty on capital equipment. The specific terms and conditions of those warranties vary depending on the product sold and the countries where we conduct business. We record a liability for the estimated cost of product warranties at the time Product revenues are recognized. The amounts we expect to incur on behalf of our Customers for the future estimated cost of these warranties are recorded as a current liability on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Factors that affect the amount of our warranty liability include the number and type of installed units, historical and anticipated rates of product failures, and material and service costs per claim. We periodically assess the adequacy of our recorded warranty liabilities and adjust the amounts as necessary.

Changes in our warranty liability during the first three months of fiscal 2027 were as follows:

(in millions)			Warranties
Balance at March 31, 2026			$	17.5
Warranties issued during the period			2.3
Settlements made during the period			(4.4)
Balance at June 30, 2026			$	15.3

15. DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING

We utilize foreign currency forward contracts to hedge a portion of our monetary assets and liabilities denominated in

foreign currencies, including intercompany transactions. Within each fiscal year, we also utilize foreign currency forward

contracts to hedge a portion of our expected non-U.S. dollar-denominated earnings against our reporting currency, the U.S.

dollar. Further, we utilize commodity swap contracts to hedge price changes in nickel that impact raw materials included in our

Cost of revenues.

These contracts are not designated as hedging instruments and do not receive hedge accounting treatment; therefore, changes in their fair value are not deferred but are recognized immediately in the Consolidated Statements of Income. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.

16. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or that would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. We estimate the fair value of financial assets and liabilities using available market information and generally accepted valuation methodologies. The inputs used to measure fair value are classified into three tiers. These tiers include Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring the entity to develop its own assumptions. The following table shows the fair value of our financial assets and liabilities at June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026:

																		Fair Value Measurements
(in millions)						Carrying Value												Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets									Significant Other Observable Inputs									Significant Unobservable Inputs
												Level 1									Level 2									Level 3
June 30,			March 31,									June 30,			March 31,						June 30,			March 31,						June 30,			March 31,

Contingent consideration obligations (4)						8.6			6.1									—			—						—			—						8.6			6.1

(1) The fair values of forward and swap contracts are based on period-end forward rates and reflect the value of the amount that we would pay or receive for the contracts involving the same notional amounts and maturity dates.

(2) We maintain a frozen domestic non-qualified deferred compensation plan covering certain employees, which allowed for the deferral of payment of previously earned compensation for an employee-specified term or until retirement or termination. Amounts deferred can be allocated to various hypothetical investment options (compensation deferrals have been frozen under the plan). We hold investments to satisfy the future obligations of the plan. Employees who made deferrals are entitled to receive distributions of their hypothetical account balances (amounts deferred, together with earnings (losses)). Changes in the fair value of these investments are recorded in the Interest income and miscellaneous (income) expense line of the Consolidated Statements of Income. During the first three months of fiscal 2027 and 2026, we recorded gains of $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively, related to these investments.

(3) We estimate the fair value of our debt using discounted cash flow analyses, based on estimated current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

(4) Contingent consideration obligations arise from prior business acquisitions. The fair values are based on discounted cash flow analyses reflecting the possible achievement of specified performance measures or events and captures the contractual nature of the contingencies, commercial risk, and the time value of money. Contingent consideration obligations are classified in the consolidated balance sheets as accrued expense (short-term) and other liabilities (long-term), as appropriate based on the contractual payment dates.

As of June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026, we also held $50.5 million and $45.5 million, respectively, of other investments without readily determinable fair values measured at cost less impairment, if any, adjusted to fair value for any observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer. These investments are included in the "Other assets" line of our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

18. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On August 5, 2026, the Company announced a targeted restructuring plan to consolidate manufacturing and distribution for formulated chemistries to a new Center of Excellence in North Carolina. The investment is expected to accelerate innovation, expand capacity and optimize our U.S. chemistries manufacturing and distribution network. The plan includes the anticipated closure of chemistry manufacturing and distribution facilities in St. Louis, Missouri and Plymouth, Minnesota. The Company currently expects to incur total pre-tax restructuring charges of approximately $55 million to $70 million, consisting of approximately $40 million to $50 million of cash expenditures and approximately $15 million to $20 million of non-cash charges. Cash expenditures are expected to primarily consist of Associate retention, severance and benefits, and also include transition, facility exit and other related costs. Non-cash charges are expected to primarily relate to accelerated depreciation. These charges are expected to be incurred over time, with completion anticipated to occur during fiscal 2030. No financial impact has been recognized to date with respect to these amounts.

The estimated costs and timing associated with the restructuring actions are based on the Company's current expectations and are subject to various assumptions. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates. Accordingly, the Company may revise its estimates in future periods as implementation activities progress.
