MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY:

Dover's President and Chief Executive Officer, Richard J. Tobin, said, "Dover's fourth quarter results were very encouraging as we move into 2025, with broad-based top line strength across the portfolio and particularly robust performances within the Clean Energy & Fueling and Pumps & Process Solutions segments. Order trends continued their positive trajectory in the quarter with book-to-bill above one, driven by robust bookings in our secular-growth-exposed markets in single-use biopharma components, thermal connectors, and CO2 systems.

"Margin improvement was solid during the period due to the positive mix impact from our high margin, high growth platforms, and our rigorous cost containment and productivity actions. We expect these ongoing productivity and cost containment actions will continue to benefit consolidated margins in 2025.

"Our strong operational results were complemented by our ongoing portfolio actions. We have completed six acquisitions over the last three years to create a new platform in cryogenic components within our Clean Energy & Fueling segment, and we are very excited about the future value creation through margin expansion and durable, secular end market growth. We recently closed two bolt-on acquisitions within our high-priority Pumps & Process Solutions segment, and our acquisition pipeline remains robust. We ended the year with a significant cash position that provides flexibility as we pursue value-creating capital deployment to further expand our businesses in high growth, high margin priority platforms.

"We are optimistic about 2025. Underlying demand trends remain solid across the portfolio, as evidenced by our order momentum, and we have significant runway for continued margin improvement through positive mix benefits and numerous cost and performance levers. We have high confidence in Dover's attractive end market exposures, flexible business model, and proven execution playbook. With this backdrop, we are poised to deliver double-digit EPS growth in 2025 through a combination of accretive top line growth, margin improvement, and value-creating capital allocation."

FULL YEAR 2025 GUIDANCE:

In 2025, Dover expects to generate GAAP EPS from continuing operations in the range of $8.16 to $8.36 (adjusted EPS from continuing operations of $9.30 to $9.50), based on full year revenue growth of 2% to 4% (organic growth of 3% to 5%).

Dover will host a webcast and conference call to discuss its fourth quarter and full year 2024 results at 9:00 A.M. Eastern Time (8:00 A.M. Central Time) on Thursday, January 30, 2025.
