BUSINESS OVERVIEW	Jun. 28, 2024
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
BUSINESS OVERVIEW	NOTE 1. BUSINESS OVERVIEW Fortive Corporation (“Fortive,” “the Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a provider of essential technologies for connected workflow solutions across a range of attractive end-markets. Our strategic segments - Intelligent Operating Solutions (“IOS”), Precision Technologies (“PT”), and Advanced Healthcare Solutions (“AHS”) - include well-known brands with leading positions in their markets. Our businesses design, develop, manufacture, and service professional and engineered products, software, and services, building upon leading brand names, innovative technologies, and significant market positions. Our research and development, manufacturing, sales, distribution, service, and administrative facilities are located in more than 50 countries around the world. We prepared the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements included herein in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) applicable for interim periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations; however, we believe the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited annual consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 and the footnotes (“Notes”) thereto included within our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements contain all adjustments, which consist of only normal, recurring accruals necessary to fairly present our financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 28, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. Segment Realignment and Divestiture In January 2024, we realigned Invetech from the AHS segment to the PT segment (the “Segment Realignment”) based on our strategic decision to divest the equipment design and manufacturing businesses of Invetech, while retaining the motion solution businesses (the “Motion Solution Business”) that are more closely aligned with the PT segment than the AHS segment. Prior period segment amounts in Note 3, 6, and 11 have been recast to conform to the revised segment presentation. In June 2024, we divested and transferred ownership of Invetech, excluding the Motion Solution Business, to its management team (the “Invetech Divestiture”). As a result of the divestiture, in the three and six-month periods ended June 28, 2024, we recorded a net realized loss of $25.6 million, which is identified as “Loss from divestiture” in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. The divested businesses accounted for less than 1.0% of total revenue and less than 1.0% of total assets for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. The Invetech Divestiture did not represent a strategic shift with a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, and therefore the divested businesses are not reported as discontinued operations. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss Foreign currency translation adjustments are generally not adjusted for income taxes as they relate to indefinite investments in non-U.S. subsidiaries. As of June 28, 2024, our outstanding €500 million Euro-denominated senior unsecured notes due 2026, €700 million Euro-denominated senior unsecured notes due 2029, €275 million Euro-denominated term loan, and ¥14.4 billion Yen-denominated term loan were designated as net investment hedges of our investment in applicable foreign operations. We recognized after-tax foreign currency transaction gains of $13.0 million and $5.1 million during the three-month periods ended June 28, 2024 and June 30, 2023, respectively, and gains of $21.4 million of $3.4 million during the six-month periods ended June 28, 2024 and June 30, 2023, respectively, on the debt that was deferred in the foreign currency translation component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) (“AOCI”) as an offset to the foreign currency translation adjustments on our investments in foreign subsidiaries. Any amounts deferred in AOCI will remain until the hedged investment is sold or substantially liquidated. We recorded no ineffectiveness from our net investment hedges during the three and six-month periods ended June 28, 2024 and June 30, 2023. The changes in AOCI by component are summarized below ($ in millions): Foreign Pension & post-retirement plan benefit adjustments (a) Total For the Three Months Ended June 28, 2024: Balance, March 29, 2024 $ (368.2) $ (34.3) $ (402.5) Other comprehensive income (loss) before reclassifications, net of income taxes (28.1) — (28.1) Amounts reclassified from AOCI into income: Increase (decrease) 7.0 (b) 0.1 (c) 7.1 Income tax impact — (0.1) (0.1) Amounts reclassified from AOCI into income, net of income taxes 7.0 — 7.0 Net current period other comprehensive income (loss), net of income taxes (21.1) — (21.1) Balance, June 28, 2024 $ (389.3) $ (34.3) $ (423.6) For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2023: Balance, March 31, 2023 $ (288.0) $ (24.3) $ (312.3) Other comprehensive income (loss) before reclassifications, net of income taxes (7.4) — (7.4) Amounts reclassified from AOCI into income: Increase (decrease) — (0.5) (c) (0.5) Income tax impact — 0.3 0.3 Amounts reclassified from AOCI into income, net of income taxes — (0.2) (0.2) Net current period other comprehensive income (loss), net of income taxes (7.4) (0.2) (7.6) Balance, June 30, 2023 $ (295.4) $ (24.5) $ (319.9) (a) Includes balances relating to defined benefit plans, supplemental executive retirement plans, and other postretirement employee benefit plans.

(c) This component of AOCI is included in the computation of net periodic pension cost (refer to Note 11 in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional details).

(b) This amount relates to the cumulative translation adjustment recognized in earnings upon the Invetech Divestiture. Refer to Note 1 for additional details. (c) This component of AOCI is included in the computation of net periodic pension cost (refer to Note 11 in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional details). Allowances for Doubtful Accounts All trade accounts and unbilled receivables are recorded in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets adjusted for any write-offs and net of allowances for credit losses. The allowances for credit losses represent management’s best estimate of the credit losses expected from our unbilled and trade accounts receivable portfolios over the life of the underlying assets. Additions to the allowances are charged to current period earnings, amounts determined to be uncollectible are charged directly against the allowances, while amounts recovered on previously written-off accounts increase the allowances. During the three and six-month periods ending June 28, 2024 and June 30, 2023, the activity was immaterial. Property Sale On March 14, 2024, we sold land and certain office buildings in our PT segment for $90 million, for which we received $20 million in cash proceeds and a $70 million promissory note secured by a letter of credit, with principal due in August and November 2024. The promissory note is recorded within Prepaid expenses and other current assets. During the six-month period ended June 28, 2024, we recorded a gain on sale of property of $63.1 million in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. Concurrently, using a portion of the proceeds from the property sale, we entered into an arm’s length transaction with the Fortive Foundation (the “Foundation”), pledging a charitable contribution of $20 million, which had no donor imposed conditions or restrictions. The Foundation, a not-for-profit entity established to expand our philanthropic efforts, is a related party due to certain Fortive executives serving as members of the entity’s board of directors. The charitable contribution is recorded within the “Other non-operating expense, net” line in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings and the liability related to the pledged donation is recorded within Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. Restructuring We initiated a discrete restructuring plan in the first quarter of 2023 that was completed during the fourth quarter of 2023. The nature of these activities were broadly consistent throughout our segments and consisted primarily of targeted workforce reductions in response to overall macroeconomic and other external conditions. We incurred these costs to position ourselves to provide superior products and services to customers in a cost-efficient manner, while taking into consideration the impact of broad economic uncertainties. During the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023, we incurred charges of $10.7 million and $28.3 million, respectively. These charges are recorded within Cost of sales and Selling, general, and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. Accrued restructuring costs were $10 million and $26 million as of June 28, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and are recorded within Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. Recently Issued Accounting Standard In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280)—Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures , which amends the disclosure requirements for reportable segments on the interim and annual basis. This standard is effective for fiscal year ending December 31, 2024 and interim periods within fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. The adoption of the standard will not impact our consolidated financial statements; however, we are currently evaluating the impact of the new disclosure requirements on the notes to the financial statements. Upon adoption, we will update the applicable interim and annual disclosures to align with the new standard. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) —Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures

Business Combination, Asset Acquisition, and Joint Venture Formation [Abstract]
ACQUISITIONS	NOTE 2. ACQUISITIONS We continually evaluate potential mergers and acquisitions that align with our business portfolio strategy. We have completed a number of acquisitions that have been accounted for as purchases of businesses and resulted in the recognition of goodwill in our financial statements. This goodwill arises when the purchase price for an acquired business exceeds its identifiable assets, net of liabilities. The purchase price for acquired businesses reflect a number of factors, including the future earnings and cash flow potential of the business, the strategic fit and resulting synergies from the complementary portfolio of the acquired business to our existing operations, industry expertise, and market access. The purchase price allocation is provisional and is subject to further adjustments as we finalize the measurement of the acquired tangible and intangible assets and liabilities, as well as the associated income tax considerations. The preliminary fair value of the net assets acquired was based on several estimates and assumptions. As additional information necessary to complete the valuation is obtained and analyzed, we will make appropriate adjustments to purchase price allocations prior to completion of the applicable measurement period, as required and as soon as practicable. During the three and six-month periods ended June 28, 2024, immaterial adjustments were made to the purchase price allocation of prior year acquisitions. 2024 On January 3, 2024, we acquired EA Elektro-Automatik Holding GmbH (“EA”), a leading supplier of high-power electronic test solutions for energy storage, mobility, hydrogen, and renewable energy applications. The acquisition of EA will bolster our innovative portfolio of products and services for engineers with complementary test and measurement solutions enabling the global energy transition. The total consideration paid was approximately $1.72 billion, net of acquired cash. We funded this transaction with financing activities and available cash. We recorded approximately $1.17 billion of goodwill within our PT segment related to the EA acquisition, which is not tax deductible. For the three and six-month periods ended June 28, 2024, we incurred approximately $0.2 million and $27.4 million, respectively, of pretax transaction-related costs related to the EA acquisition, which were primarily for banking fees, legal fees, and amounts paid to other third-party advisers. These costs were recorded within Selling, general, and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Condensed Statement of Earnings. The following table summarizes the preliminary estimated acquisition date fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of June 28, 2024 ($ in millions): Total Accounts receivable $ 21.5 Inventories 35.6 Property, plant and equipment 18.9 Goodwill 1,172.6 Other intangible assets (customer relationships, technology, and trade names) 681.2 Deferred tax liabilities (189.1) Other assets and liabilities, net (22.5) Net cash consideration $ 1,718.2 2023

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS	Jun. 28, 2024
Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS	NOTE 4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Accounting standards define fair value based on an exit price model, establish a framework for measuring fair value for assets and liabilities required to be carried at fair value, and provide for certain disclosures related to the valuation methods used within the valuation hierarchy as established within the accounting standards. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows: • Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. • Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, or other observable characteristics for the asset or liability, including interest rates, yield curves and credit risks, or inputs that are derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data through correlation. • Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs based on our assumptions. A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Below is a summary of financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis ($ in millions): Quoted Prices Significant Other Significant Total June 28, 2024 Deferred compensation liabilities $ — $ 43.9 $ — $ 43.9 December 31, 2023 Deferred compensation liabilities — 39.9 — 39.9 Certain management employees participate in our nonqualified deferred compensation programs that permit such employees to defer a portion of their compensation, on a pretax basis, until after their termination of employment. All amounts deferred under such plans are unfunded, unsecured obligations and are recorded within Other long-term liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. Participants may choose among alternative earning rates for the amounts they defer, which are primarily based on investment options within our defined contribution plans for the benefit of U.S. employees (except that the earnings rates for amounts contributed unilaterally by the Company are entirely based on changes in the value of Fortive common stock). Changes in the deferred compensation liability under these programs are recognized based on changes in the fair value of the participants’ accounts and are recorded within Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. Non-recurring Fair Value Measurements Certain non-financial assets, primarily property, plant, and equipment, goodwill, and intangible assets, are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are reported at their carrying value. However, these assets are required to be assessed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be fully recoverable, and at least annually for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets. We evaluated events or circumstances that may indicate the carrying value of our non-financial assets may not be fully recoverable during the three and six-month periods ended June 28, 2024, and recorded no impairments. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The carrying amount and fair value of financial instruments are as follows ($ in millions): June 28, 2024 December 31, 2023 Carrying Amount Fair Value Carrying Amount Fair Value Current portion of long-term debt $ 383.9 $ 384.0 $ — $ — Long-term debt, net of current maturities 3,396.4 3,281.3 3,646.2 3,539.4 As of June 28, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the current portion of long-term debt and long-term debt, net of current maturities were categorized as Level 1. The fair value of the long-term borrowings were based on quoted market prices. The difference between the fair value and the carrying amounts of long-term borrowings may be attributable to changes in market interest rates and/or our credit ratings subsequent to the borrowing. The fair value of cash and equivalents, trade accounts receivable, net, trade accounts payable, and commercial paper approximates their carrying amount due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

Euro-denominated Senior Unsecured Notes Due 2026 and 2029 On February 13, 2024, we completed the registered offering of the following Euro-denominated senior unsecured notes: • €500 million in aggregate principal amount of our 3.7% Euro-denominated senior unsecured notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) issued at 99.928% of their principal amount and bearing interest at 3.7% per annum. The 2026 Notes mature on February 13, 2026 with interest payable in arrears on February 13 of each year, beginning in 2025. • €700 million in aggregate principal amount of our 3.7% Euro-denominated senior unsecured notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”) issued at 99.943% of their principal amount and bearing interest at 3.7% per annum. The 2029 Notes mature on August 15, 2029 with interest payable in arrears on August 15 of each year, beginning in 2024. The net proceeds from the offering, after underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses, were approximately $1.3 billion based on the currency exchange rates at which the Euro denominated proceeds were converted into U.S. dollars. We used the net proceeds to refinance the $1.0 billion outstanding principal of the Delayed-Draw Term Loan Due 2024, refinance borrowings under the U.S. dollar-denominated commercial paper, and for general corporate purposes. Redemption Provisions and Covenants Applicable to 2026 and 2029 Notes Prior to July 15, 2029 for the 2029 Notes, and prior to maturity for the 2026 Notes, we may redeem the applicable series of notes at our option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at the applicable make-whole redemption price specified in the indentures. On or after July 15, 2029, we may redeem the 2029 Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2029 Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the redemption date. We may, at our option, redeem the applicable series of notes, in whole but not in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of such series of notes to be redeemed, together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the redemption date, at any time, if as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws, regulations, treaties, or rulings of the United States or any political subdivision of or in the United States or any taxing authority thereof or therein affecting taxation, or any change in, or amendment to, the application, official interpretation, administration or enforcement of such laws, regulations, treaties or rulings (including a holding by a court of competent jurisdiction in the United States), which change or amendment is enacted, adopted, announced or become effective, we become or, based upon a written opinion of independent counsel selected by us, will become obligated to pay additional amounts with respect to the applicable series of notes. If a change of control triggering event occurs, we will, in certain circumstances, be required to make an offer to repurchase the notes from each holder at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the notes being repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including the repurchase date. A change of control triggering event is defined as the occurrence of both a change of control and a rating event, each as defined in the indentures. Except in connection with a change of control triggering event, the 2026 Notes and 2029 Notes do not have any credit rating downgrade triggers that would accelerate the maturity of the notes. The 2026 Notes and 2029 Notes contain customary covenants. None of these covenants are considered restrictive to our operations and as of June 28, 2024, we were in compliance with all of our covenants. Delayed-Draw Term Loan due 2024 On January 2, 2024, we drew down an additional $450 million of the Delayed-Draw Term Loan due 2024 as part of the funding for the acquisition of EA, with $1.0 billion outstanding immediately following such additional draw. Refer to Note 2 for additional information regarding the EA acquisition. On February 13, 2024, we used the net proceeds from the 2026 Notes and 2029 Notes to refinance the entire $1.0 billion outstanding principal and accrued interest thereon. Other Liquidity Sources We generally satisfy any short-term liquidity needs that are not met through operating cash flows and available cash primarily through issuances of commercial paper under our U.S. dollar and Euro-denominated commercial paper programs (“Commercial Paper Programs”). Under these programs, we may issue unsecured promissory notes with maturities not exceeding 397 and 183 days, respectively. Interest expense on commercial paper is paid at maturity and is generally based on our credit ratings at the time of issuance and prevailing short-term interest rates. The details of our outstanding Commercial Paper Programs as of June 28, 2024 were as follows ($ in millions): Carrying value (a) Annual effective rate Weighted average maturity (in days) U.S. dollar-denominated commercial paper $ 673.0 5.53 % 32 (a) Net of unamortized debt discount. Credit support for the Commercial Paper Programs is provided by a five-year $2.0 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility that expires on October 18, 2027 (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) which, to the extent not otherwise providing credit support for our commercial paper programs, can also be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes. As of June 28, 2024, no borrowings were outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. We classified our borrowings outstanding under the Commercial Paper Programs as Long-term debt in the accompanying Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets as we had the intent and ability, as supported by availability under the Revolving Credit Facility, to refinance these borrowings for at least one year from the balance sheet date.

SALES

SALES	Jun. 28, 2024
Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]
SALES	NOTE 6. SALES We derive revenue primarily from the sales of products, including software, and services. Revenue is recognized when control of promised products or services is transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those products, software, or services. Product sales include revenue from the sale of products and equipment, which includes our software and software as a service (“SaaS”) product offerings and equipment rentals. Service sales include revenues from extended warranties, post-contract customer support (“PCS”), maintenance contracts or services, contract labor to perform ongoing service at a customer location, services related to previously sold products, and software implementation services. Contract Assets — In certain circumstances, we record contract assets which include unbilled amounts typically resulting from sales under contracts when revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer, and right to payment is not only subject to the passage of time. Contract assets were $109 million as of June 28, 2024 and $108 million as of December 31, 2023. Contract assets are recorded within Prepaid expenses and other current assets in our Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. Contract Costs — We incur and capitalize incremental costs to obtain certain contracts, typically sales-related commissions where the amortization period is greater than one year and costs associated with assets used by our customers in certain service arrangements. As of June 28, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had $52 million and $51 million, respectively, in net revenue-related contract costs primarily related to certain software contracts. Revenue-related contract costs are recorded within Other assets in our Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. These assets have estimated useful lives between three Contract Liabilities — Our contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue generally related to subscription-based software contracts, PCS and extended warranty sales, where we generally receive up-front payment and recognize revenue over the service or support term. We classify deferred revenue as current or noncurrent based on the timing of when we expect to recognize revenue. The current portion of deferred revenue is recorded within Accrued expenses and other current liabilities and the noncurrent portion of deferred revenue is recorded within Other long-term liabilities in our Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. Our contract liabilities consisted of the following ($ in millions): June 28, 2024 December 31, 2023 Deferred revenue - current $ 518.3 $ 544.6 Deferred revenue - noncurrent 45.7 45.8 Total contract liabilities $ 564.0 $ 590.4 During the three and six-month periods ended June 28, 2024, we recognized revenue related to our contract liabilities at December 31, 2023 of $121 million and $317 million, respectively. The change in our contract liabilities from December 31, 2023 to June 28, 2024 was primarily due to the timing of billings and revenue recognized for subscription-based software contracts, PCS and extended warranty services. Remaining Performance Obligations — Our remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price of firm, non-cancelable orders and the average contract value for software contracts, for which work has not been performed. We have excluded performance obligations with an original expected duration of one year or less from the amounts below. The aggregate remaining performance obligations attributable to each of our segments is as follows ($ in millions): June 28, 2024 Intelligent Operating Solutions $ 571.6 Precision Technologies 62.1 Advanced Healthcare Solutions 71.5 Total remaining performance obligations $ 705.2 The majority of remaining performance obligations are related to service and support contracts, which we expect to fulfill approximately 80 percent within the next two years, approximately 95 percent within the next three years, and substantially all within four years. Disaggregation of Revenue We disaggregate revenue from contracts with customers by sales of products and software and services, geographic location, and end market for each of our segments, as we believe it best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of our revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. Due to the Segment Realignment, prior period segment amounts have been recast to conform to the revised segment presentation. Refer to Note 1 for further information on the realignment.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
INCOME TAXES	NOTE 7. INCOME TAXES Our effective tax rates for the three and six-month periods ended June 28, 2024 were 14.7% and 13.0%, respectively, as compared to 16.5% and 16.1%, respectively, for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the three-month period ended June 28, 2024 as compared to the three-month period ended June 30, 2023 was primarily related to change in valuation allowances, resulting in a benefit in the three-month period ended June 28, 2024. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the six-month period ended June 28, 2024 as compared to the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 was primarily related to cash repatriation, resulting in a discrete tax credit, and changes in valuation allowances in the six-month period ended June 28, 2024. Our effective tax rates for the three and six-month periods ended June 28 2024, differ from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% due primarily to the impact of credits and deductions provided by law and changes in our uncertain tax position reserves.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION	NOTE 8. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION The 2016 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Stock Plan”), provides for the grant of stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units, and performance stock units (collectively, “Stock Awards”), stock options, or any other stock-based award. As of June 28, 2024, approximately 12 million shares of our common stock were available for subsequent issuance under the Stock Plan. For a full description of our Stock Plan, refer to Note 15 of our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Stock-based Compensation Expense Stock-based compensation has been recognized as a component of Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings based on the portion of the awards that are ultimately expected to vest. The following summarizes the components of our stock-based compensation expense under the Stock Plan ($ in millions): Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 28, 2024 June 30, 2023 June 28, 2024 June 30, 2023 Stock Awards: Pretax compensation expense $ 15.6 $ 19.9 $ 37.1 $ 38.0 Income tax benefit (2.9) (2.7) (5.5) (5.3) Stock Award expense, net of income taxes 12.7 17.2 31.6 32.7 Stock options: Pretax compensation expense 8.6 9.1 16.0 17.7 Income tax benefit (1.2) (1.3) (2.3) (2.5) Stock option expense, net of income taxes 7.4 7.8 13.7 15.2 Total stock-based compensation: Pretax compensation expense 24.2 29.0 53.1 55.7 Income tax benefit (4.1) (4.0) (7.8) (7.8) Total stock-based compensation expense, net of income taxes $ 20.1 $ 25.0 $ 45.3 $ 47.9 The following summarizes the unrecognized compensation cost for the Stock Plan awards as of June 28, 2024. This compensation cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately two years, representing the remaining service period related to the awards.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	NOTE 9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES For a description of our litigation and contingencies and additional information about our leases, refer to Note 14 and Note 9, respectively, in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Warranty We generally accrue estimated warranty costs at the time of sale. In general, manufactured products are warranted against defects in material and workmanship when properly used for their intended purpose, installed correctly, and appropriately maintained. Warranty period terms depend on the nature of the product and range from 90 days up to the life of the product. The amount of the accrued warranty liability is determined based on historical information such as past experience, product failure rates or number of units repaired, estimated cost of material and labor, and, in certain instances, estimated property damage. The accrued warranty liability is reviewed on a quarterly basis and may be adjusted as additional information regarding expected warranty costs becomes known. During the three and six-month periods ended June 28, 2024 and June 30, 2023, warranty related activity was immaterial. Leases Operating lease costs for both the three-month periods ended June 28, 2024 and June 30, 2023 were $12 million. Operating lease costs for the six-month periods ended June 28, 2024 and June 30, 2023 were $25 million and $24 million, respectively. During both the six-month periods ended June 28, 2024 and June 30, 2023, cash paid for operating leases included in operating cash flows was $24 million. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets obtained in exchange for operating lease obligations were $10 million and $18 million during the six-month periods ended June 28, 2024 and June 30, 2023, respectively. Operating lease ROU assets were $159 million and $155 million as of June 28, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Operating lease liabilities were $166 million and $164 million as of June 28, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recorded in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets within Other assets, Accrued expenses and other current liabilities, and Other long-term liabilities, respectively. Other Matters We discovered that a subsidiary of ours made certain incorrect representations regarding status as a small business concern as defined by the Small Business Act for certain contracts that it was awarded by the Defense Logistics Agency (“DLA”). As a result, on January 26, 2024, we voluntarily notified the Department of Defense Office of Inspector General (“OIG”) and the DLA of this matter. We currently do not expect this matter to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. However, resolution of this matter could subject us to fines or penalties, and we cannot provide assurance as to the timing or outcome of such resolution.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
NET EARNINGS PER SHARE	NOTE 10. NET EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic net earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing net earnings attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the applicable period. Diluted EPS is similarly calculated, except that the calculation includes the dilutive effect of the assumed issuance of shares under stock-based compensation plans under the treasury stock method, except where the inclusion of such shares would have an anti-dilutive impact. Anti-dilutive options excluded from the diluted EPS calculation for the three and six-month periods ended June 28, 2024 were 1.3 million and 1.2 million, respectively, and were 2.7 million for both the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023. Information related to the calculation of net earnings per share of common stock is summarized as follows ($ and shares in millions, except per share amounts): Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 28, 2024 June 30, 2023 June 28, 2024 June 30, 2023 Numerator Net earnings $ 195.1 $ 209.0 $ 402.5 $ 382.6 Denominator Weighted average common shares outstanding used in basic earnings per share 351.3 353.0 351.5 353.3 Incremental common shares from: Assumed exercise of dilutive options and vesting of dilutive Stock Awards 3.5 2.5 3.9 2.7 Weighted average common shares outstanding used in diluted earnings per share 354.8 355.5 355.4 356.0 Net earnings per common share - Basic $ 0.56 $ 0.59 $ 1.15 $ 1.08 Net earnings per common share - Diluted $ 0.55 $ 0.59 $ 1.13 $ 1.07 We declared and paid cash dividends per common share for the periods as presented below: Dividend Per Amount 2024: First quarter $ 0.08 $ 28.1 Second quarter 0.08 28.0 Total $ 0.16 $ 56.1 2023: First quarter $ 0.07 $ 24.7 Second quarter 0.07 24.6 Total $ 0.14 $ 49.3 Share Repurchase Program On February 17, 2022, the Company's Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to 20 million shares of the Company's outstanding common stock from time to time on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. There is no expiration date for the repurchase program, and the timing and amount of repurchases under the program are determined by the Company's management based on market conditions and other factors. The repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time by the Board of Directors. As of December 31, 2023, there were 9 million shares remaining for repurchase under the program. On January 23, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors increased the number of shares authorized under the share repurchase program by an additional 11 million shares.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW (Policies)	Jun. 28, 2024
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Segment Realignment and Divestiture	Segment Realignment and Divestiture In January 2024, we realigned Invetech from the AHS segment to the PT segment (the “Segment Realignment”) based on our strategic decision to divest the equipment design and manufacturing businesses of Invetech, while retaining the motion solution businesses (the “Motion Solution Business”) that are more closely aligned with the PT segment than the AHS segment. Prior period segment amounts in Note 3, 6, and 11 have been recast to conform to the revised segment presentation. In June 2024, we divested and transferred ownership of Invetech, excluding the Motion Solution Business, to its management team (the “Invetech Divestiture”). As a result of the divestiture, in the three and six-month periods ended June 28, 2024, we recorded a net realized loss of $25.6 million, which is identified as “Loss from divestiture” in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. The divested businesses accounted for less than 1.0% of total revenue and less than 1.0% of total assets for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. The Invetech Divestiture did not represent a strategic shift with a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, and therefore the divested businesses are not reported as discontinued operations.
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss	Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss Foreign currency translation adjustments are generally not adjusted for income taxes as they relate to indefinite investments in non-U.S. subsidiaries. As of June 28, 2024, our outstanding €500 million Euro-denominated senior unsecured notes due 2026, €700 million Euro-denominated senior unsecured notes due 2029, €275 million Euro-denominated term loan, and ¥14.4 billion Yen-denominated term loan were designated as net investment hedges of our investment in applicable foreign operations. We recognized after-tax foreign currency transaction gains of $13.0 million and $5.1 million during the three-month periods ended June 28, 2024 and June 30, 2023, respectively, and gains of $21.4 million of $3.4 million during the six-month periods ended June 28, 2024 and June 30, 2023, respectively, on the debt that was deferred in the foreign currency translation component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) (“AOCI”) as an offset to the foreign currency translation adjustments on our investments in foreign subsidiaries. Any amounts deferred in AOCI will remain until the hedged investment is sold or substantially liquidated. We recorded no ineffectiveness from our net investment hedges during the three and six-month periods ended June 28, 2024 and June 30, 2023.
Allowances for Doubtful Accounts	Allowances for Doubtful Accounts All trade accounts and unbilled receivables are recorded in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets adjusted for any write-offs and net of allowances for credit losses. The allowances for credit losses represent management’s best estimate of the credit losses expected from our unbilled and trade accounts receivable portfolios over the life of the underlying assets. Additions to the allowances are charged to current period earnings, amounts determined to be uncollectible are charged directly against the allowances, while amounts recovered on previously written-off accounts increase the allowances. During the three and six-month periods ending June 28, 2024 and June 30, 2023, the activity was immaterial.
Restructuring	Restructuring We initiated a discrete restructuring plan in the first quarter of 2023 that was completed during the fourth quarter of 2023. The nature of these activities were broadly consistent throughout our segments and consisted primarily of targeted workforce reductions in response to overall macroeconomic and other external conditions. We incurred these costs to position ourselves to provide superior products and services to customers in a cost-efficient manner, while taking into consideration the impact of broad economic uncertainties. During the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023, we incurred charges of $10.7 million and $28.3 million, respectively. These charges are recorded within Cost of sales and Selling, general, and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. Accrued restructuring costs were $10 million and $26 million as of June 28, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and are recorded within Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets.
Recently Issued Accounting Standard	Recently Issued Accounting Standard In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280)—Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures , which amends the disclosure requirements for reportable segments on the interim and annual basis. This standard is effective for fiscal year ending December 31, 2024 and interim periods within fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. The adoption of the standard will not impact our consolidated financial statements; however, we are currently evaluating the impact of the new disclosure requirements on the notes to the financial statements. Upon adoption, we will update the applicable interim and annual disclosures to align with the new standard. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) —Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures
Fair Value Measurements	Accounting standards define fair value based on an exit price model, establish a framework for measuring fair value for assets and liabilities required to be carried at fair value, and provide for certain disclosures related to the valuation methods used within the valuation hierarchy as established within the accounting standards. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows: • Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. • Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, or other observable characteristics for the asset or liability, including interest rates, yield curves and credit risks, or inputs that are derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data through correlation. • Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs based on our assumptions. A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
Sales	We derive revenue primarily from the sales of products, including software, and services. Revenue is recognized when control of promised products or services is transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those products, software, or services. Product sales include revenue from the sale of products and equipment, which includes our software and software as a service (“SaaS”) product offerings and equipment rentals. Service sales include revenues from extended warranties, post-contract customer support (“PCS”), maintenance contracts or services, contract labor to perform ongoing service at a customer location, services related to previously sold products, and software implementation services. Contract Assets — In certain circumstances, we record contract assets which include unbilled amounts typically resulting from sales under contracts when revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer, and right to payment is not only subject to the passage of time. Contract assets were $109 million as of June 28, 2024 and $108 million as of December 31, 2023. Contract assets are recorded within Prepaid expenses and other current assets in our Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. Contract Costs — We incur and capitalize incremental costs to obtain certain contracts, typically sales-related commissions where the amortization period is greater than one year and costs associated with assets used by our customers in certain service arrangements. As of June 28, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had $52 million and $51 million, respectively, in net revenue-related contract costs primarily related to certain software contracts. Revenue-related contract costs are recorded within Other assets in our Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. These assets have estimated useful lives between three Contract Liabilities — Our contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue generally related to subscription-based software contracts, PCS and extended warranty sales, where we generally receive up-front payment and recognize revenue over the service or support term. We classify deferred revenue as current or noncurrent based on the timing of when we expect to recognize revenue. The current portion of deferred revenue is recorded within Accrued expenses and other current liabilities and the noncurrent portion of deferred revenue is recorded within Other long-term liabilities in our Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. Remaining Performance Obligations — Our remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price of firm, non-cancelable orders and the average contract value for software contracts, for which work has not been performed. We have excluded performance obligations with an original expected duration of one year or less from the amounts below.
