CAPITAL STOCK AND EARNINGS PER SHARE | NOTE 11. CAPITAL STOCK AND NET EARNINGS PER SHARE Capital Stock Under Ralliant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as of June 27, 2025, Ralliant’s authorized capital stock consists of 1,300.0 million common shares with par value $0.01 per share and 10.0 million preferred shares with par value $0.01 per share. On June 27, 2025, the 100 shares of Ralliant common stock held by Fortive were recapitalized into 112.7 million shares of Ralliant common stock held by Fortive. On June 28, 2025, Fortive distributed all of Ralliant’s issued and outstanding common stock to Fortive’s stockholders on a pro rata basis as discussed in Note 1. No preferred shares were issued or outstanding on June 27, 2025. Each share of Ralliant common stock entitled the holder to one vote on all matters to be voted upon by common stockholders. Ralliant’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) is authorized to issue shares of preferred stock in one or more series and has discretion to determine the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions, including voting rights, dividend rights, conversion rights, redemption privileges and liquidation preferences, of each series of preferred stock. The Board’s authority to issue preferred stock with voting rights or conversion rights that, if exercised, could adversely affect the voting power of the holders of common stock, could potentially discourage attempts by third parties to obtain control of Ralliant through certain types of takeover practices. For additional information, see “Description of Capital Stock” in the Company’s Information Statement filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Form 10-12B/A on May 28, 2025. Net Earnings per Common 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. The total number of shares outstanding on June 27, 2025 was 112.7 million, which is being utilized for the calculation of both basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 27, 2025 and June 28, 2024, as no Ralliant common stock equivalents were outstanding prior to June 28, 2025. In addition, since the Company was incorporated on September 26, 2024, there were no shares of the Company outstanding as of June 28, 2024. Share Repurchase Authorization On June 28, 2025, the Company's Board of Directors approved a share repurchase authorization of up to $200.0 million of the Company’s common stock. The timing and amount of share repurchases will be determined by the Company based on its evaluation of market conditions and other factors. The share repurchase authorization has no expiration date, does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of shares, and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. The share repurchase authorization is consistent with the Company's capital allocation strategy to prioritize returning capital to shareholders.
