Veralto Reports Second Quarter 2024 Results
WALTHAM, Mass., (July 25, 2024) – Veralto (NYSE: VLTO) (the “Company”), a global leader in essential water and product quality solutions dedicated to Safeguarding the World's Most Vital Resources™, announced results for the second quarter ended June 28, 2024.
Key Second Quarter 2024 Results
•Sales increased 2.8% year-over-year to $1,288 million, with non-GAAP core sales growth of 3.8%
•Operating profit margin was 23.2% and non-GAAP adjusted operating profit margin was 24.0%
•Net earnings were $203 million, or $0.81 per diluted common share
•Non-GAAP, adjusted net earnings were $213 million, or $0.85 per diluted common share
•Operating cash flow was $251 million and non-GAAP free cash flow was $240 million
Jennifer L. Honeycutt, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “Our second quarter performance reflects the durability of our businesses fortified by strong commercial and operational execution. We delivered core sales growth across both segments led by positive volume, and price increases in-line with historical levels. Additionally, we continued to expand margins at both segments through strong operational leverage, improved productivity and cost optimization. Increased rigor deploying the Veralto Enterprise System has helped drive growth, expand margins and ensure we deliver on our commitments.”
Honeycutt continued, “From an end market perspective, in Water Quality we are capitalizing on strong secular growth drivers across industrial markets and steady demand from municipalities. And in PQI, we are encouraged by on-going recovery in consumer-packaged goods markets, improved sentiment from brand owners and strong bookings during the quarter in our packaging and color solutions business.”
“Today we raised our full year adjusted earnings per share guidance to reflect stronger operational execution and an incrementally more positive view of our end markets. As we look longer term, we remain committed to creating value through steady, durable core sales growth, continuous improvement and disciplined capital allocation,” concluded Honeycutt.
2024 Guidance
The Company provides forecasted sales only on a non-GAAP basis because of the difficulty in estimating the other components of GAAP sales, such as currency translation, acquisitions, and divestitures.
For the third quarter of 2024, Veralto anticipates non-GAAP core sales growth in the low-to-mid single-digits year-over-year with adjusted operating profit margin of approximately 23.5% and adjusted diluted earnings per share in the range of $0.82 to $0.86 per share.
For the full year 2024, the Company maintained its core sales growth target of low single-digits and raised its target for adjusted operating profit margin expansion to ~75 basis points, up from 50-75 basis points year-over-year. The Company also raised its guidance for adjusted diluted earnings per share to a range of $3.37 to $3.45, up from its prior guidance of $3.25 to $3.34 per share. Its free cash flow conversion guidance was maintained at a range of 100% to 110%.

C Impairment charge related to customer relationships in the Product Quality & Innovation segment for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023 totaling $6 million, as reported in this line item, and $5 million after-tax.
D This amount encompasses management estimates of operating as a standalone entity. The management estimate includes recurring and ongoing costs required to operate new functions required for a public company such as certain corporate functions including finance, tax, legal, human resources and other general and administrative related functions. The pre-tax and after-tax effect of these estimates are summarized below:

Impact to Operating Profit | $ | (14) | | | | | |
Pretax | (49) | | | | | |
After-tax | (37) | | | | | |
E This line item reflects the aggregate tax effect of all nontax adjustments reflected in the preceding line items of the table. In addition, the footnotes above indicate the after-tax amount of each individual adjustment item. Veralto estimates the tax effect of each adjustment item by applying Veralto’s overall estimated effective tax rate to the pretax amount, unless the nature of the item and/or the tax jurisdiction in which the item has been recorded requires application of a specific tax rate or tax treatment, in which case the tax effect of such item is estimated by applying such specific tax rate or tax treatment.
F Discrete tax matters relate to changes in estimates associated with prior period uncertain tax positions, audit settlements and excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation.

Forecasted Core Sales Growth, Adjusted Operating Profit Margin, and Adjusted Diluted Net Earnings per Share
The Company provides forecasted sales only on a non-GAAP basis because of the difficulty in estimating the other components of GAAP revenue, such as currency translation, acquisitions and divested product lines. Additionally, we do not reconcile adjusted operating profit margin (or components thereof), adjusted diluted earnings per share or free cash flow to net earnings conversion ratio to the comparable GAAP measures because of the difficulty in estimating the other unknown components such as investment gains and losses, impairments and separation costs, which would be reflected in any forecasted GAAP operating profit, forecasted diluted earnings per share or forecasted net earnings ratio.

Statement Regarding Non-GAAP Measures
Each of the non-GAAP measures set forth above should be considered in addition to, and not as a replacement for or superior to, the comparable GAAP measure, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Management believes that these measures provide useful information to investors by offering additional ways of viewing Veralto Corporation’s (“Veralto” or the “Company”) results that, when reconciled to the corresponding GAAP measure, help our investors:
•with respect to the profitability-related non-GAAP measures, understand the long-term profitability trends of our business and compare our profitability to prior and future periods and to our peers;
•with respect to core sales and related sales measures, identify underlying growth trends in our business and compare our sales performance with prior and future periods and to our peers; and
•with respect to free cash flow and related cash flow measures (the “FCF Measure”), understand Veralto’s ability to generate cash without external financings, strengthen its balance sheet, invest in its business and grow its business through acquisitions and other strategic opportunities (although a limitation of free cash flow is that it does not take into account the Company’s non-discretionary expenditures, and as a result the entire free cash flow amount is not necessarily available for discretionary expenditures).
Management uses these non-GAAP measures to measure the Company’s operating and financial performance.
•The items excluded from the non-GAAP measures set forth above have been excluded for the following reasons:
◦Amortization of Intangible Assets: We exclude the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets because the amount and timing of such charges are significantly impacted by the timing, size, number and nature of the acquisitions we consummate. While we have a history of significant acquisition activity, we do not acquire businesses on a predictable cycle, and the amount of an acquisition’s purchase price allocated to intangible assets and related amortization term are unique to each acquisition and can vary significantly from acquisition to acquisition. Exclusion of this amortization expense facilitates more consistent comparisons of operating results over time between our newly acquired and long-held businesses, and with both acquisitive and non-acquisitive peer companies. We believe however that it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets contribute to sales generation and that intangible asset amortization related to past acquisitions will recur in future periods until such intangible assets have been fully amortized.
◦Restructuring Charges: We exclude costs incurred pursuant to discrete restructuring plans that are fundamentally different (in terms of the size, strategic nature and planning requirements, as well as the inconsistent frequency, of such plans) from the ongoing productivity improvements that result from application of the Veralto Enterprise System. Because these restructuring plans are incremental to the core activities that arise in the ordinary course of our business and we believe are not indicative of Veralto’s ongoing operating costs in a given period, we exclude these costs to facilitate a more consistent comparison of operating results over time.
◦Other Adjustments: With respect to the other items excluded from the profitability-related non-GAAP measures, we exclude these items because they are of a nature and/or size that occur with inconsistent frequency, occur for reasons that may be unrelated to Veralto’s commercial performance during the period and/or we believe that such items may obscure underlying business trends and make comparisons of long-term performance difficult.
◦Standalone Adjustments: We believe these adjustments provide additional insight into how our businesses are performing, on a normalized basis. However, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as inferring that our future results will be unaffected by the items for which the measure adjusts.
•With respect to core operating profit margin changes, in addition to the explanation set forth in the bullets above relating to “restructuring charges” and “other adjustments”, we exclude the impact of businesses owned for less than one year (or disposed of during such period and not treated as discontinued operations) because the timing, size, number and nature of such transactions can vary significantly from period to period and may obscure underlying business trends and make comparisons of long-term performance difficult.
•With respect to core sales related measures, (1) we exclude the impact of currency translation because it is not under management’s control, is subject to volatility and can obscure underlying business trends, and (2) we exclude the effect of acquisitions and divested product lines because the timing, size, number and nature of such transactions can vary significantly from period-to-period and between us and our peers, which we believe may obscure underlying business trends and make comparisons of long-term performance difficult.
•With respect to the FCF Measure, we exclude payments for additions to property, plant and equipment (net of the proceeds from capital disposals) to demonstrate the amount of operating cash flow for the period that remains after accounting for the Company’s capital expenditure requirements.
