| Business Combination | Acquisitions On February 17, 2026, the Company acquired Stellar Energy Americas, Inc. (Stellar Energy), a leading provider of turnkey data center cooling solutions. The gross purchase consideration was $553.4 million, excluding cash acquired of $185.4 million. The purchase price is subject to customary post-closing adjustments. The acquisition enhances the Company's position in data center thermal management solutions through Stellar Energy's capabilities in modular and scalable cooling system design. The results of this acquisition are reported within the Americas segment as of the date of acquisition. The consideration was allocated to tangible and intangible identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price resulted in the recognition of identifiable intangible assets of $315.0 million, primarily related to customer relationships, developed technology and backlog. Net tangible liabilities assumed, inclusive of deferred taxes, totaled $140.8 million. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired resulted in goodwill of $405.1 million, which is attributable primarily to anticipated synergies, assembled workforce, and the expansion of Stellar Energy’s data center solutions portfolio. The goodwill for this acquisition is not deductible for tax purposes. Additionally, during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 the Company acquired all remaining interest in LiquidStack, a provider of advanced liquid cooling solutions for data centers, in which the Company previously held a minority interest, that is reported in the Americas segment as of the date of acquisition. The Company acquired several Transport refrigeration distributors that are reported within the Americas and EMEA segments, as applicable, as of their respective dates of acquisition. The Company also acquired an exclusive sales channel for Trane products reported in the EMEA segment as of the date of acquisition.

Equity method investments During the first quarter of 2026, the Company also acquired a 49% interest in Kieback&Peter, a provider of building automation hardware, software and solutions across the building lifecycle and energy management. The Company's minority interest is reported as an equity method investment within the EMEA segment
