ESAB Corporation Announces Second Quarter 2026 Results

Record total sales increased 12.9%, with core organic sales up 2.5%
Core organic growth in both segments
Closed Eddyfi ahead of schedule
Updating 2026 outlook

North Bethesda, MD, August 6, 2026 -- ESAB Corporation (“ESAB” or the “Company”) (NYSE: ESAB), a focused premier industrial compounder, today announced financial results for the second quarter of 2026.

ESAB reported record second quarter sales of $808 million, an increase of 12.9% on a reported basis or an increase of 2.5% on a core organic growth basis before acquisitions and currency translation, as compared to the prior year quarter. ESAB also reported second quarter net income from continuing operations attributable to ESAB of $35 million or $0.54 diluted earnings per share and core adjusted net income of $83 million or $1.33 diluted earnings per share, down 1% on a year-over-year basis. Core adjusted EBITDA of $150 million rose 8.0% and core adjusted EBITDA margin decreased by 90 basis points on a year-over-year basis to 19.5%, reflecting transitory price/cost neutrality, and targeted commercial investments for equipment growth.

"ESAB delivered a record second quarter, with a solid return to organic growth in both regions, underscoring the strength of our platform even in a challenging macro environment. These results reflect the strength of our teams and the value of our unrivaled workflow solution that addresses our customers' most complex issues. Despite a challenging environment in the Middle East, our performance exceeded expectations, with particular strength in North America and Asia and a resilient Europe. We expect to mitigate the transitory cost inflation related to logistics and commodity price increases over the next few quarters," said Shyam P. Kambeyanda, ESAB President and CEO.

"We are also pleased to have closed our acquisition of Eddyfi one month ahead of schedule," Kambeyanda added. "This is a defining step in our strategy to extend our workflow solutions into compelling new adjacencies that shape ESAB into a higher-growth, higher-margin enterprise. Our performance this quarter reaffirms my full confidence in achieving our long-term financial targets as we continue to focus on organic growth, margin expansion, and deleveraging the business to create sustainable, long-term shareholder value."

Updating Full Year 2026 Outlook

ESAB has updated its full-year 2026 outlook, which now projects total core sales growth of 11.0% to 14.0%, an increase from the previous guidance of 6.0% to 9.0%. Within this growth, core organic sales remains 2.0% to 4.0%, while the contribution from M&A has been revised upward to approximately 9.0% from 4.0%, and the anticipated FX impact has remained the same with the prior range of 0.0% to 1.0%. Consequently, the company has raised its core adjusted EBITDA forecast to a range of $615 million to $625 million, up from the previous $575 million to $595 million, while the outlook for core adjusted EPS has been adjusted to a range of $5.40 to $5.50.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Adjustments

ESAB has provided in this press release financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“non-GAAP”). ESAB presents some of these non-GAAP financial measures including and excluding Russia due to economic and political volatility caused by the war in Ukraine, which results in enhanced investor interest in this information. Core non-GAAP financial measures exclude Russia for the three and six months ended July 3, 2026 and July 4, 2025. These non-GAAP financial measures may include one or more of the following: adjusted net income from continuing operations, Core adjusted net income from continuing operations, adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, Restructuring and other related charges, acquisition transaction, due diligence and integration expenses, amortization of intangibles and fair value step up on acquired inventories, depreciation and other amortization and compensation expense related to the Performance Option Awards), Core adjusted EBITDA, organic sales, Core organic sales, adjusted free cash flow and ratios based on the foregoing measures. ESAB also provides adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin on a segment basis, as well as Core adjusted EBITDA and Core adjusted EBITDA margin on a segment basis.

Adjusted net income from continuing operations represents Net income from continuing operations attributable to ESAB Corporation, excluding Restructuring and other related charges, acquisition transaction, due diligence and integration expenses, amortization of intangibles and fair value step up on acquired inventories and compensation expense related to the Performance Option Awards. Adjusted net income, includes the tax effect of non-GAAP adjusting items at applicable tax rates and excludes the impact of discrete tax charges or gains in each period. ESAB also presents adjusted net income margin from continuing operations, which is subject to the same adjustments as adjusted net income from continuing operations. Adjusted net income per diluted share from continuing operations is a calculation of adjusted net income from continuing operations over the weighted-average diluted shares outstanding. ESAB also presents Core adjusted net income from continuing operations and Core adjusted net income per share - diluted from continuing operations, which are subject to the same adjustments as Adjusted net income from continuing operations and Adjusted net income per diluted share from continuing operations, further removing the impact of Russia for the three and six months ended July 3, 2026 and July 4, 2025. We present the earnings per share-related non-GAAP measures on a basis that assumes the MCPS had already been converted as of the beginning of the applicable period (and accordingly also exclude the dividends accrued on the MCPS during such period, since such dividends would no longer be paid once the MCPS convert). We believe this presentation provides useful information to investors by helping them understand what the net impact will be on ESAB’s earnings per share - related measures once the MCPS convert into ESAB’s common stock.
Adjusted EBITDA excludes from Net income from continuing operations the effect of Income tax expense, Interest expense and other, net, Restructuring and other related charges, acquisition transaction, due diligence and integration expenses, amortization of intangibles and fair value step up on acquired inventories, depreciation and other amortization and compensation expense related to the Performance Option Awards. ESAB presents adjusted EBITDA margin, which is subject to the same adjustments as adjusted EBITDA. Further, ESAB presents these non-GAAP performance measures on a segment basis, which excludes the impact of Restructuring and other related charges, acquisition transaction, due diligence and integration expenses, amortization of intangibles and fair value step up on acquired inventories, depreciation and other amortization and compensation expense related to the Performance Option Awards from operating income. ESAB also presents Core adjusted EBITDA and Core adjusted EBITDA margin, which are subject to the same adjustments as Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, respectively, further removing the impact of Russia for the three and six months ended July 3, 2026 and July 4, 2025.

ESAB presents organic sales, which excludes the impact of acquisitions and foreign exchange rate fluctuations and presents core organic sales, which further excludes the impact of the Russia business for the three and six months ended July 3, 2026 and July 4, 2025.

Adjusted free cash flow represents cash flows from operating activities excluding cash outflows related to discontinued operations and acquisition-related payments less purchases of property, plant and equipment.

These non-GAAP financial measures assist ESAB management in comparing its operating performance over time because certain items may obscure underlying business trends and make comparisons of long-term performance difficult, as they are of a nature and/or size that occur with inconsistent frequency or relate to unusual events or discrete restructuring plans and other initiatives that are fundamentally different from the ongoing productivity and core business of the Company.

ESAB management also believes that presenting these measures allows investors to view its performance using the same measures that the Company uses in evaluating its financial and business performance and trends.

Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information calculated in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures presented above to GAAP results has been provided in the financial tables included in this press release.

(2) Includes severance and other termination benefits, including outplacement services as well as the cost of relocating associates, relocating equipment, lease termination expenses, impairment of long-lived assets, costs associated with disposing of discontinued products and other costs in connection with the closure and optimization of facilities and product lines.
(3) Includes transaction, diligence and integration expenses totaling $24.8 million and $35.1 million for the three and six months ended July 3, 2026, respectively, and $12.8 million and $14.2 million for the three and six months ended July 4, 2025, respectively. Additionally, it includes amortization of intangibles and fair value step up on acquired inventories totaling $16.5 million and $29.0 million for the three and six months ended July 3, 2026, respectively, and $8.8 million and $17.0 million for the three and six months ended July 4, 2025, respectively. Additionally, includes $4.8 million of bridge loan commitment fees related to the Eddyfi Technologies acquisition for the six months ended July 3, 2026.
(4) Represents the impact of the Performance Option Awards granted in June and July 2026. These awards were non-cash, one-time, non-recurring grants with a different structure and size than the Company’s annual equity compensation program.
(5) This line item reflects the aggregate tax effect of all non-tax adjustments reflected in the preceding line items of the table. ESAB estimates the tax effect of each adjustment by applying ESAB’s overall estimated effective tax rate to the pretax amount, unless the nature of the item and/or 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. The MCPS dividends are not tax deductible and
5


therefore the tax effect of the adjustments reflected in the table above does not include any tax impact of the MCPS dividends.
(6) For 2026, discrete adjustments relate to tax effects from the Eddyfi transaction.
(7) In June 2026, the Company issued $175.0 million in aggregate liquidation preference of the MCPS. Dividends on the MCPS are payable on a cumulative basis at an annual rate of 6.50% on the liquidation preference of $1,000 per share. Unless earlier converted, each share of MCPS will automatically convert on approximately June 2029 into between 7.1806 and 8.2576 shares of ESAB's common stock, subject to further anti-dilution adjustments. The number of shares of ESAB's common stock issuable on conversion of the MCPS will be determined based on the volume weighted average price ("VWAP") per share of the Company's common stock over the 20 consecutive trading day period commencing on, and including, the 21st scheduled trading day immediately preceding the final dividend payment date. For the purposes of calculating adjusted net income per share, the Company has excluded the paid and anticipated MCPS cash dividends and assumed the 'if-converted' method of share dilution (the incremental shares of common stock deemed outstanding applying the 'if-converted' method of calculating share dilution are referred to as the 'Converted Shares'). Under this method, approximately 0.5 million and 0.3 million Converted Shares were included in weighted average diluted shares outstanding for the three and six months ended July 3, 2026, respectively. We believe this presentation provides useful information to investors by helping them understand what the net impact will be on ESAB’s earnings per share - related measures once the MCPS convert into ESAB’s common stock.
