LEHIGH VALLEY, Pa. (February 2, 2023) - Air Products (NYSE:APD) today reported first quarter fiscal 2023 results, including GAAP EPS from continuing operations of $2.57, up two percent over prior year. GAAP net income of $584 million was up six percent over prior year due to higher pricing and volumes, which were partially offset by higher costs, unfavorable currency due to the strengthening of the U.S. Dollar, and the prior-year one-time benefit associated with finalizing the Jazan air separation unit (ASU) joint venture. GAAP net income margin of 18.4 percent was flat versus the prior year.

For the quarter, on a non-GAAP basis, adjusted EPS from continuing operations of $2.64 increased six percent over the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA of $1,084 million was up eight percent over the prior year, as higher pricing and volumes were partially offset by higher costs, unfavorable currency impacts, and the prior-year one-time benefit associated with finalizing the Jazan ASU joint venture. Adjusted EBITDA margin of 34.1 percent increased 60 basis points.

First quarter sales of $3.2 billion increased six percent over the prior year on seven percent higher pricing, three percent higher energy cost pass-through, and two percent higher volumes, partially offset by six percent unfavorable currency. Higher pricing across the largest segments drove the results, complemented by favorable volume growth, primarily in Asia and the Americas, from higher on-site and merchant demand.

Commenting on the results, Air Products' Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer Seifi Ghasemi said, "The committed team at Air Products worked hard to deliver strong results this quarter, overcoming significant economic weakness, currency challenges and other headwinds. We are proud to have reached significant project milestones, including completing the second phase of the $12 billion Jazan gasification and power project, continuing to make good progress on the project financing for the NEOM green hydrogen project, and announcing plans for the largest green hydrogen project in the U.S. to be located in Texas. Importantly, we again increased the dividend, as we have done for more than 40 consecutive years and expect to pay out more than $1.5 billion to our shareholders in 2023."

**Fiscal 2023 First Quarter Results by Business Segment**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Americas** sales of $1,384 million were up 13 percent over the prior year on nine percent higher pricing and six percent higher volumes, partially offset by one percent lower energy cost pass-through and one percent unfavorable currency. Operating income of $343 million increased 28 percent and adjusted EBITDA of $515 million increased 13 percent, in each case due to the higher pricing and higher volumes, partially offset by higher costs. Adjusted EBITDA also reflects lower equity affiliates' income. Operating margin of 24.8 percent increased 300 basis points primarily due to higher pricing, while adjusted EBITDA margin of 37.2 percent decreased 10 basis points as the improved pricing was offset by lower equity affiliates' income.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Asia** sales of $778 million were flat versus the prior year as seven percent higher volumes, two percent higher energy cost pass-through and one percent higher pricing were offset by 10 percent unfavorable currency. Operating income of $236 million increased seven percent and adjusted EBITDA of $345 million increased two percent, in each case due to the favorable volumes and pricing, partially offset by unfavorable currency. Operating margin of 30.3 percent increased 200 basis points and adjusted EBITDA margin of 44.4 percent increased 100 basis points, primarily due to higher pricing and volumes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Europe** sales of $792 million increased six percent over the prior year driven by 14 percent higher pricing and nine percent higher energy cost pass-through, partially offset by 11 percent unfavorable currency and six percent lower volumes. Operating income of $146 million increased 47 percent and adjusted EBITDA of $208 million increased 28 percent, in each case primarily driven by higher pricing, partially offset by lower volumes, unfavorable currency, and higher costs. Operating margin of 18.4 percent increased 510 basis points and adjusted EBITDA margin of 26.2 percent increased 430 basis points.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Middle East and India** equity affiliates' income of $64 million decreased 31 percent compared to the prior year, primarily from the prior-year one-time benefit associated with finalizing the Jazan ASU joint venture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Corporate and other** sales of $179 million decreased 19 percent compared to the prior year, driven by lower sale of equipment activity.

**Outlook**

Air Products provides adjusted EPS guidance on a continuing operations basis, excluding the impact of certain items that management believes are not representative of the Company's underlying business performance, such as the incurrence of costs for cost reduction actions and impairment charges, or the recognition of gains or losses on disclosed items. It is not possible, without unreasonable efforts, to predict the timing or occurrence of these events or the potential for other transactions that may impact future GAAP EPS. Similarly, it is not possible, without unreasonable efforts, to reconcile the forecasted capital expenditures to future cash used for investing activities because management is not able to identify the timing or occurrence of future investment activity, which is driven by management's assessment of competing opportunities at the time the Company enters into transactions. Furthermore, it is not possible to identify the potential significance of these events in advance, but any of these events, if they were to occur, could have a significant effect on the Company's future GAAP results. Management therefore is unable to reconcile, without unreasonable effort, the Company's forecasted range of adjusted EPS or the capital expenditures to a comparable GAAP range.

Air Products continues to expect full-year fiscal 2023 adjusted EPS guidance of $11.20 to $11.50, up nine to 12 percent over prior year adjusted EPS. For the fiscal 2023 second quarter, Air Products' adjusted EPS guidance is $2.50 to $2.70, up seven to 15 percent over fiscal 2022 second quarter adjusted EPS.

Effective beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, management reviews adjusted earnings per share excluding the impact of non-service related components of the net periodic benefit/cost for the Company's defined benefit pension plans. The projected percentage increase in adjusted EPS for full year fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2023 second quarter is calculated using adjusted fiscal 2022 results in order to present this information on a consistent basis using the calculation of adjusted EPS that is being applied for the first time in fiscal year 2023. Refer to the reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP historical results below for additional information.

Air Products continues to expect capital expenditures of $5.0 - $5.5 billion for full-year fiscal 2023.

**RECONCILIATIONS OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES**

*(Millions of U.S. Dollars unless otherwise indicated, except for per share data)*

We present certain financial measures, other than in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), on an "adjusted" or "non-GAAP" basis. On a consolidated basis, these measures include adjusted diluted earnings per share ("EPS"), adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, and capital expenditures. On a segment basis, these measures include adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin. In addition to these measures, we also present certain supplemental non-GAAP financial measures to help the reader understand the impact that certain disclosed items, or "non-GAAP adjustments," have on the calculation of our adjusted diluted EPS. For each non-GAAP financial measure, we present a reconciliation to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP.

In many cases, non-GAAP financial measures are determined by adjusting the most directly comparable GAAP measure to exclude non-GAAP adjustments that we believe are not representative of our underlying business performance. For example, we exclude the impact of the non-service components of net periodic benefit/cost for our defined benefit pension plans as further discussed below. Additionally, we have previously excluded certain expenses associated with cost reduction actions, impairment charges, and gains on disclosed transactions. The reader should be aware that we may recognize similar losses or gains in the future.

When applicable, the tax impact of our pre-tax non-GAAP adjustments reflects the expected current and deferred income tax impact of our non-GAAP adjustments. These tax impacts are primarily driven by the statutory tax rate of the various relevant jurisdictions and the taxability of the adjustments in those jurisdictions.

We provide these non-GAAP financial measures to allow investors, potential investors, securities analysts, and others to evaluate the performance of our business in the same manner as our management. We believe these measures, when viewed together with financial results computed in accordance with GAAP, provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting our historical financial performance and projected future results. However, we caution readers not to consider these measures in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Readers should also consider the limitations associated with these non-GAAP financial measures, including the potential lack of comparability of these measures from one company to another.

<u>NON-GAAP ADJUSTMENTS FOR NON-SERVICE PENSION (BENEFIT) COST, NET</u>

Effective beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, our adjusted EPS excludes the impact of non-service related components of net periodic benefit/cost for our defined benefit pension plans. The prior year non-GAAP financial measures presented below have been recast accordingly to conform to the fiscal year 2023 presentation. Non-service related components are recurring, non-operating items that include interest cost, expected returns on plan assets, prior service cost amortization, actuarial loss amortization, as well as special termination benefits, curtailments, and settlements. The net impact of non-service related components is reflected within "Other non-operating income (expense), net" on our consolidated income statements. Adjusting for the impact of non-service pension components provides management and users of our financial statements with a more accurate representation of our underlying business performance because these components are driven by factors that are unrelated to our operations, such as recent changes to the allocation of our pension plan assets associated with de-risking as well as volatility in equity and debt markets. Further, non-service related components are not indicative of our defined benefit plans' future contribution needs due to the funded status of the plans.

<u>ADJUSTED DILUTED EPS</u>

The table below provides a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure for each of the major components used to calculate adjusted diluted EPS from continuing operations, which we view as a key performance metric. In periods that we have non-GAAP adjustments, we believe it is important for the reader to understand the per share impact of each such adjustment because management does not consider these impacts when evaluating underlying business performance. Per share impacts are calculated independently and may not sum to total diluted EPS and total adjusted diluted EPS due to rounding.

<u>ADJUSTED EBITDA AND ADJUSTED EBITDA MARGIN</u>

We define adjusted EBITDA as net income less income from discontinued operations, net of tax, and excluding non-GAAP adjustments, which we do not believe to be indicative of underlying business trends, before interest expense, other non-operating income (expense), net, income tax provision, and depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin provide useful metrics for management to assess operating performance. Margins are calculated independently for each period by dividing each line item by consolidated sales for the respective period and may not sum to total margin due to rounding.

The tables below present consolidated sales and a reconciliation of net income on a GAAP basis to adjusted EBITDA and net income margin on a GAAP basis to adjusted EBITDA margin:

<u>CAPITAL EXPENDITURES</u>

We define capital expenditures as cash flows for additions to plant and equipment, including long-term deposits, acquisitions (less cash acquired), and investment in and advances to unconsolidated affiliates. A reconciliation of cash used for investing activities to our reported capital expenditures is provided below:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | Three Months Ended | Three Months Ended |
| | 31 December | 31 December |
| | 2022 | 2021 |
| Cash used for investing activities | $256.2 | $1719.1 |
| Proceeds from sale of assets and investments | 4.0 | 1.1 |
| Purchases of investments | (19.2) | (727.4) |
| Proceeds from investments | 591.5 | 1331.9 |
| Other investing activities | 1.7 | 6.4 |
| Capital expenditures | $834.2 | $2331.1 |

---

The components of our capital expenditures are detailed in the table below:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | Three Months Ended | Three Months Ended |
| | 31 December | 31 December |
| | 2022 | 2021 |

| Investment in and advances to unconsolidated affiliates |  | 1632.7 |
| Capital expenditures<sup>(A)</sup> | $834.2 | $2331.1 |

---

<sup>(A)</sup>Includes contributions from noncontrolling partners in consolidated subsidiaries, including investments associated with the Jazan gasification and power project.

*<u>Outlook for Investing Activities</u>*

It is not possible, without unreasonable efforts, to reconcile our forecasted capital expenditures to future cash used for investing activities because we are unable to identify the timing or occurrence of our future investment activity, which is driven by our assessment of competing opportunities at the time we enter into transactions. These decisions, either individually or in the aggregate, could have a significant effect on our cash used for investing activities.

We expect capital expenditures for fiscal year 2023 to be $5.0 to $5.5 billion.

<u>OUTLOOK</u>

The guidance provided below is on an adjusted continuing operations basis and is compared to adjusted historical diluted EPS attributable to Air Products. These adjusted measures exclude the impact of certain items that we believe are not representative of our underlying business performance, such as the non-service components of net periodic benefit/cost for our defined benefit pension plans, the incurrence of costs for cost reduction actions and impairment charges, or the recognition of gains or losses on disclosed items. The per share impact for each of our non-GAAP adjustments is calculated independently and may not sum to total adjusted diluted EPS due to rounding.

It is not possible, without unreasonable efforts, to identify the timing or occurrence of similar future events or the potential for other transactions that may impact future GAAP EPS. Furthermore, it is not possible to identify the potential significance of these events in advance; however, any of these events, if they were to occur, could have a significant effect on our future GAAP EPS. Accordingly, management is unable to fully reconcile, without unreasonable efforts, our forecasted range of adjusted EPS on a continuing operations basis to a comparable GAAP range.

<sup>(A)</sup>Fiscal year 2022 diluted EPS has been adjusted as illustrated and as discussed in the *Adjusted Diluted EPS Reflecting Adjustments for Non-Service Pension Impacts* section below in order to present fiscal year 2022 results and fiscal year 2023 guidance on a consistent basis. Actual non-service pension impacts depend in part on external factors that are impossible to predict, such as volatility in equity and debt markets. Accordingly, management is unable to fully reconcile the earnings per share impact of our projection to GAAP EPS.

<u>ADJUSTED DILUTED EPS REFLECTING ADJUSTMENTS FOR NON-SERVICE PENSION IMPACTS</u>

Effective beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, management reviews adjusted earnings per share excluding the impact of non-service related components of net periodic benefit/cost for our defined benefit pension plans. Non-GAAP financial measures for the second quarter and full year fiscal year 2022 have been recast accordingly in the table below to allow readers to compare fiscal year 2022 results and fiscal year 2023 guidance on a consistent basis. The per share impacts reflected in this table are calculated independently and may not sum to total adjusted diluted EPS due to rounding. For additional time periods, please refer to our Investor Relations website.
