**Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements**

**EMERSON ELECTRIC CO. & SUBSIDIARIES**

(Dollars and shares in millions, except per share amounts or where noted)

**(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION**

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Emerson Electric Co. ("Emerson", "we", "us", "our" or the "Company") include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of operating results for the interim periods presented. Adjustments consist of normal and recurring accruals. The consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and consequently do not include all disclosures required for annual financial statements presented in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2025.

On November 20, 2025, Emerson announced that with the completion of the Company's transformation, it has revised its management organization and updated its reportable segments. Effective in fiscal 2026, Emerson now reports results for five segments: Control Systems & Software and Test & Measurement, which are combined and reported as the Software & Systems group; Sensors and Final Control, which are combined and reported as the Intelligent Devices group; and Safety & Productivity. Prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. See Note 15 for further details.

**(2) REVENUE RECOGNITION** 

Emerson is a global technology and software company that provides innovative solutions for customers in a wide range of end markets around the world. The majority of the Company's revenues relate to a broad offering of manufactured products and software which are recognized at the point in time when control transfers, while a smaller portion is recognized over time or relates to sales arrangements with multiple performance obligations. See Note 15 for additional information about the Company's revenues.

The following table summarizes the balances of the Company's unbilled receivables (contract assets), which are reported in Other assets (current and noncurrent), and its customer advances (contract liabilities), which are reported in Accrued expenses and Other liabilities. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Sept 30, 2025** | **Mar 31, 2026** |
| Unbilled receivables (contract assets) | $1891 | **1909** |
| Customer advances (contract liabilities) | (1105) | **(1269)** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Net contract assets | $786 | **640** |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

The majority of the Company's contract balances relate to (1) arrangements where revenue is recognized over time and payments from customers are made according to a contractual billing schedule, and (2) revenue from term software license arrangements where the license revenue is recognized upfront upon delivery. The decrease in net contract assets was due to customer billings exceeding revenue recognized for performance completed during the period. Revenue recognized for the three and six months ended March 31, 2026 included $162 and $590, respectively, that was included in the beginning contract liability balance. Other factors that impacted the change in net contract assets were immaterial. Revenue recognized for the three and six months ended March 31, 2026 for performance obligations that were satisfied in previous periods, including cumulative catchup adjustments on the Company's long-term contracts, was immaterial.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company's backlog relating to unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) performance obligations in contracts with its customers was approximately $9.5 billion. The Company expects to recognize approximately 75 percent of its remaining performance obligations as revenue over the next 12 months, with the remainder substantially over the following two years. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

**(4) ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES**

**AspenTech**

On March 12, 2025, Emerson completed its purchase of the remaining outstanding shares of common stock of AspenTech not already owned by the Company for approximately $7.2 billion. Emerson also incurred fees of $76 ($65 after-tax) and paid $76 to settle certain AspenTech share-based awards that were outstanding prior to the transaction closing. The purchase of the remaining outstanding shares and related costs are reported as an adjustment to Equity in 2025. Separately, AspenTech incurred $127 ($113 after-tax) of deal-related fees which are reported as acquisition/divestiture costs in Other deductions, net in 2025. AspenTech is now reported as a part of the Control Systems & Software segment in the Software & Systems business group, see Note 15.

**Other Transactions**

On November 15, 2024, AspenTech acquired Open Grid Systems Limited, a global provider of network model management technology and a pioneer in developing model-driven applications supporting open access to data through industry standards, for a total purchase price of $46, net of cash acquired. The Company recognized goodwill of $32 (none of which is expected to be tax deductible) and other identifiable intangible assets of $20, consisting of developed technology and customer relationships with a weighted-average useful life of approximately 5 years.

**(5) DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS**

On May 31, 2023, the Company completed the sale of a majority stake in its Climate Technologies business to private equity funds managed by Blackstone. As a part of this transaction, Emerson retained a 40 percent non-controlling common equity interest in a new standalone joint venture between Emerson and Blackstone named Copeland. Subsequently, in August of 2024, the Company sold its 40 percent non-controlling common equity interest in Copeland to private equity funds managed by Blackstone for $1.5 billion. Cash from discontinued operating activities of $585 for the six months ended March 31, 2025 represents income taxes paid related to the sale of the Company's 40 percent non-controlling common equity interest in Copeland.

---

For the three and six months ended March 31, 2026, the decreases in acquisition/divestiture costs and intangibles amortization are primarily related to the AspenTech transaction, including backlog amortization of $26 and $52, respectively, in the prior year. Other is composed of several items, including a portion of pension expense (income), litigation costs, provision for bad debt and other items, none of which is individually significant.

**(8) RESTRUCTURING COSTS**

Restructuring expense reflects costs associated with the Company's ongoing efforts to improve operational efficiency and deploy assets globally in order to remain competitive on a worldwide basis. The Company expects fiscal 2026 restructuring expense and related costs to be approximately $130, including costs to complete actions initiated in the first six months of the year.

Details of the change in the liability for restructuring costs during the six months ended March 31, 2026 follow:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Sept 30, 2025** | **Expense** | **Utilized/Paid** | **Mar 31, 2026** |

| Other | 4 | **7** | **9** | **2** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total | $120 | **53** | **66** | **107** |

---

The tables above do not include $8 and $6 of costs related to restructuring actions incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, that are required to be reported in cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses; year-to-date amounts are $11 and $8, respectively.

**(9) TAXES**

Income taxes were $175 in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 and $199 in 2025, resulting in effective tax rates of 22 percent and 32 percent, respectively. In the current year, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the "OBBBA") increased the effective tax rate by approximately 1 percentage point due to a lower tax deduction for foreign derived intangible income from the change to domestic research and development in fiscal 2026. Excluding the impact related to the OBBBA, the lower rate in the current year reflected favorable tax items that reduced the rate by approximately 2 percentage points. The prior year rate was negatively impacted by $49 ($0.09 per share) of discrete tax items related to the AspenTech transaction. In addition, the fees incurred by AspenTech were not fully deductible. In total, the net impact of these items increased the rate by approximately 10 percentage points.

Income taxes were $344 in the first six months of fiscal 2026 and $382 in 2025, resulting in effective tax rates of 22 percent and 27 percent, respectively. The current year rate was negatively impacted by approximately 1 percent due to the OBBBA impact discussed above. Excluding the impact related to the OBBBA, the lower rate in the current year reflected favorable tax items that reduced the rate by approximately 2 percentage points. The prior year items discussed above increased the prior year rate by approximately 5 percentage points.

**(11) DEBT**

On February 10, 2026, the Company entered into a $2 billion 364-day revolving backup credit facility to support commercial paper borrowings. This facility replaces the Company's $3 billion 364-day revolving backup credit facility entered into on February 11, 2025, which expired by its terms. This facility is in addition to the Company's existing $3.5 billion five-year revolving backup credit facility with various banks, which was entered into in February 2023. Both credit facilities are unsecured and may be accessed under various interest rate alternatives at the Company's option. The fees to maintain the facilities are immaterial and the Company has not incurred any borrowings under either facility or previous facilities.

In March 2025, the Company issued €500 of 3.0% notes due March 2031, $500 of 5.0% notes due March 2035, and €500 of 3.5% notes due March 2037. The Company used the net proceeds from the sale of the notes and increased commercial paper borrowings, along with cash on hand, to fund the AspenTech transaction (see Note 4).

**(12) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS**

**Hedging Activities** – As of March 31, 2026, the notional amount of foreign currency hedge positions was approximately $4.3 billion. All derivatives receiving hedge accounting are cash flow hedges. The majority of hedging gains and losses deferred as of March 31, 2026 are expected to be recognized over the next 12 months as the underlying forecasted transactions occur. Gains and losses on foreign currency derivatives reported in Other deductions, net reflect hedges of balance sheet exposures that do not receive hedge accounting. Cash flows related to foreign currency hedges are classified within operating cash flows.

**Net Investment Hedge** – In fiscal 2019, the Company issued euro-denominated debt of €1.5 billion, of which €500 was repaid in 2024. During the current year, the Company repaid an additional €500 of 1.25% euro notes that matured in October 2025. In fiscal 2025, the Company issued €500 of 3.0% notes due March 2031 and €500 of 3.5% notes due March 2037. The euro notes reduce foreign currency risk associated with the Company's international subsidiaries that use the euro as their functional currency and have been designated as a hedge of a portion of the investment in these operations. Foreign currency gains or losses associated with the euro-denominated debt are deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and will remain until the hedged investment is sold or substantially liquidated. Cash flows related to the euro-denominated debt are classified within financing cash flows.

The following gains and losses are included in earnings and other comprehensive income (OCI) for the three and six months ended March 31, 2025 and 2026:

---

Regardless of whether derivatives and non-derivative financial instruments receive hedge accounting, the Company expects hedging gains or losses to be offset by losses or gains on the related underlying exposures. The amounts ultimately recognized will differ from those presented above for open positions, which remain subject to ongoing market price fluctuations until settlement. Derivatives receiving hedge accounting are highly effective and no amounts were excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness.

**Fair Value Measurement** – Valuations for all derivatives and the Company's long-term debt fall within Level 2 of the GAAP valuation hierarchy. As of March 31, 2026, the fair value of long-term debt was approximately $7.5 billion, which was lower than the carrying value by $798. The fair value of foreign currency contracts, which are reported in Other current assets and Accrued expenses, did not materially change since September 30, 2025.

------

Counterparties to derivatives arrangements are companies with investment-grade credit ratings. The Company has bilateral collateral arrangements with counterparties with credit rating-based posting thresholds that vary depending on the arrangement. If credit ratings on the Company's debt fall below pre-established levels, counterparties can require immediate full collateralization of all derivatives in net liability positions. The maximum amount that could potentially have been required was immaterial. The Company also can demand full collateralization of derivatives in net asset positions should any counterparty credit ratings fall below certain thresholds. No collateral was posted with counterparties and none was held by the Company as of March 31, 2026.

**Items 2 and 3.** 

**Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations** 

(Dollars are in millions, except per share amounts or where noted)

**OVERVIEW**

For the second quarter of fiscal 2026, net sales were $4.6 billion, up 3 percent compared with the prior year. Underlying sales, which exclude foreign currency translation, acquisitions and divestitures, were up 0.5 percent, including a negative 1 percent impact related to the conflict in the Middle East. The conflict remains dynamic and continuation or escalation of the conflict could adversely impact our business or results of operations in future periods. Foreign currency translation had a 2.5 percent favorable impact.

Earnings attributable to common stockholders were $618, up 27 percent, and diluted earnings per share were $1.10, up 28 percent compared with $0.86 in the prior year, reflecting the impact of higher acquisition/divestiture fees and related costs in the prior year primarily related to the AspenTech transaction. Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $1.54, up 4 percent compared with $1.48 in the prior year, despite a negative impact related to the timing of software renewals of $(0.09).

The table below presents the Company's diluted earnings per share on an adjusted basis to facilitate period-to-period comparisons and provide additional insight into the underlying, ongoing operating performance of the Company. Adjusted diluted earnings per share excludes intangibles amortization expense, restructuring expense, first year purchase accounting related items and transaction-related costs, discrete taxes and certain gains, losses or impairments.

Net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 were $4.6 billion, up 3 percent compared with 2025. Software and System sales were up 4 percent, Intelligent Devices sales were up 2 percent, and Safety & Productivity sales were up 5 percent. Underlying sales were up 0.5 percent on 3.5 percent higher price, offset by 3 percent lower volume due to a negative impact of 2 percent related to the timing of software renewals and 1 percent related to the conflict in the Middle East. Foreign currency translation had a 2.5 percent favorable impact. Underlying sales were up 9 percent in the U.S. and down 5 percent internationally. The Americas was up 5 percent, Europe was down 4 percent, and Asia, Middle East & Africa was down 5 percent (China down 9 percent).

Cost of sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 were $2,140, an increase of $79 compared with 2025, and gross margin of 53.1 percent decreased 0.4 percentage points. Gross margin was negatively impacted by tariffs, which were more than offset by targeted price actions but diluted margins, and the timing of software renewals. In total, these items negatively impacted gross margin by approximately 0.8 percentage points.

In February 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the International Emergency Power Act ("IEEPA"), which the U.S. administration had relied upon to impose certain tariffs, does not authorize the imposition of tariffs. Following this decision, the U.S. Court of International Trade directed U.S. Customs and Border Protection ("CBP") to implement a process for refunding IEEPA tariffs. On April 20, 2026, CBP launched an administrative portal through which eligible importers may submit claims for such refunds. The amount and timing of any tariff refunds Emerson may be eligible for remains uncertain and accordingly, the Company did not record a benefit related to potential refunds of IEEPA tariffs paid as of March 31, 2026.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses of $1,316 increased $33 and SG&A as a percent of sales was 28.9 percent, consistent with the prior year.

Other deductions, net were $229 for the second quarter of fiscal 2026, a decrease of $189 compared with the prior year, due to a $143 decrease in acquisition/divestiture fees and related costs primarily associated with the AspenTech acquisition in the prior year and lower amortization due to backlog amortization of $26 in the prior year related to the AspenTech acquisition.

------

Pretax earnings of $793 increased $164, up 26 percent compared with the prior year, reflecting the impact of the AspenTech acquisition-related costs in the prior year discussed above. Earnings increased $5 in Software & Systems, $8 in Intelligent Devices, and $4 in Safety and Productivity. See the Business Segments discussion that follows and Note 15.

Income taxes were $175 in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 and $199 in 2025, resulting in effective tax rates of 22 percent and 32 percent, respectively. In the current year, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the "OBBBA") increased the effective tax rate by approximately 1 percentage point due to lower tax deduction for foreign derived intangible income from the change to domestic research and development in fiscal 2026. The Company expects the OBBBA to slightly benefit the effective tax rate beginning in fiscal 2027. Excluding the impact related to the OBBBA, the lower rate in the current year reflected favorable tax items that reduced the rate by approximately 2 percentage points. The prior year rate was negatively impacted by $49 ($0.09 per share) of discrete tax items related to the AspenTech transaction. In addition, the fees incurred by AspenTech were not fully deductible. In total, the net impact of these items increased the rate by 10 percentage points.

Earnings attributable to common stockholders were $618, up 27 percent, and diluted earnings per share were $1.10, up 28 percent compared with $0.86 in the prior year. Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $1.54 compared with $1.48 in the prior year. See the analysis above of adjusted earnings per share for further details.

The table below, which shows results on an adjusted EBITA basis, is intended to supplement the Company's discussion of its results of operations herein. The Company defines adjusted EBITA as earnings excluding interest expense, net, income taxes, intangibles amortization expense, restructuring expense, first year purchase accounting related items and transaction-related costs, and certain gains, losses or impairments. Adjusted EBITA and adjusted EBITA margin are measures used by management and may be useful for investors to evaluate the Company's operational performance.

Net sales for the first six months of 2026 were $8.9 billion, up 3 percent compared with 2025. Software & Systems sales were up 4 percent, Intelligent Device sales were up 3 percent, and Safety & Productivity sales were up 4 percent. Underlying sales were up 1 percent on 3 percent higher price, offset by 2 percent lower volume due to a negative impact of 1.5 percent related to the timing of software renewals and 0.5 percent related to the conflict in the Middle East. Foreign currency translation had a 2 percent favorable impact. Underlying sales increased 7 percent in the U.S. and decreased 3 percent internationally. The Americas was up 4 percent, Europe was down 1 percent and Asia, Middle East & Africa was down 3 percent (China was down 7 percent).

Cost of sales for 2026 were $4,174, an increase of $172 compared with 2025, and gross margin of 53.1 percent decreased 0.4 percentage points. Gross margin was negatively impacted by tariffs, which were more than offset by targeted price actions but diluted margins, and the timing of software renewals. In total, these items negatively impacted gross margin by approximately 0.8 percentage points.

SG&A expenses of $2,559 increased $53 and SG&A as a percent of sales decreased 0.4 percentage points to 28.7 percent, reflecting savings from cost reduction actions and leverage on higher sales.

Other deductions, net were $434 in 2026, a decrease of $212 compared with the prior year, due to a $155 decrease in acquisition/divestiture fees and related costs primarily associated with the AspenTech acquisition in the prior year and lower amortization due to backlog amortization of $52 in the prior year related to the AspenTech acquisition.

Pretax earnings of $1,568 increased $164 compared with prior year, reflecting the impact of the AspenTech acquisition-related costs in the prior year discussed above. Earnings increased $59 in Software & Systems, $15 in Intelligent Devices, and $2 in Safety & Productivity, see the Business Segments discussion that follows and Note 15.

Income taxes were $344 in the first six months of fiscal 2026 and $382 in 2025, resulting in effective tax rates of 22 percent and 27 percent, respectively. In the current year, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the "OBBBA") increased the effective tax rate by approximately 1 percentage point due to lower tax deduction for foreign derived intangible income from the change to domestic research and development in fiscal 2026. The Company expects the OBBBA to slightly

benefit the effective tax rate beginning in fiscal 2027. Excluding the impact related to the OBBBA, the lower rate in the current year reflected favorable tax items that reduced the rate by approximately 2 percentage points. The prior year rate was negatively impacted by $49 ($0.09 per share) of discrete tax items related to the AspenTech transaction. In addition, the fees incurred by AspenTech were not fully deductible. Overall, these items increased the current year rate by approximately 5 percentage points.

Earnings attributable to common stockholders were $1,223, up 14 percent compared with the prior year, and diluted earnings per share were $2.17, up 15 percent compared with $1.88 in 2025. Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $3.00 compared with $2.86 in the prior year, reflecting strong operating results. See the analysis below of adjusted earnings per share for further details.

**FINANCIAL CONDITION**

Key elements of the Company's financial condition as of and for the six months ended March 31, 2026 as compared to the year ended September 30, 2025 and the six months ended March 31, 2025 follow.

| Interest coverage ratio | 9.8 | X | 8.6 | X | **7.5** | **X** |

---

Operating working capital increased $571 compared to September 30, 2025, primarily reflecting an increase in inventory and a decrease in accrued expenses. The current ratio remained flat compared to September 30, 2025. The interest coverage ratio (earnings before income taxes plus interest expense, divided by interest expense) of 7.5X for the 6 months ended March 31, 2026 compares to 9.8X for the 6 months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease reflects higher interest expense compared to the prior year.

Operating cash flow from continuing operations for the first six months of fiscal 2026 was $1,478, a decrease of $125 compared with $1,603 in the prior year, reflecting an increase in operating working capital, partially offset by higher earnings. Free cash flow of $1,296 in the first six months of fiscal 2026 (operating cash flow of $1,478 less capital expenditures of $182) decreased $137 compared to free cash flow of $1,433 in 2025 (operating cash flow of $1,603 less capital expenditures of $170), reflecting the decrease in operating cash flow. Cash used in investing activities was $206. Cash used in financing activities was $1,013, reflecting share repurchases of $542 and dividends. During the first quarter, the Company repaid €500 of 1.25% euro notes that matured in October 2025.

Total cash provided by operating activities was $1,478, an increase of $460 compared with $1,018 in the prior year. The increase reflects $585 of income taxes paid in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 related to the sale of the Company's 40 percent non-controlling common equity interest in Copeland, offset by lower operating cash flow from continuing operations.

On February 10, 2026, the Company entered into a $2 billion, 364-day revolving backup credit facility to support commercial paper borrowings. The facility replaces the Company's $3 billion, 364-day credit agreement entered into on February 11, 2025, which expired by its terms. This facility is in addition to the Company's existing $3.5 billion five-year revolving backup credit facility with various banks, which was entered into in February 2023.

Emerson maintains a conservative financial structure to provide the strength and flexibility necessary to achieve our strategic objectives and has been successful in efficiently deploying cash where needed worldwide to fund operations, complete acquisitions and sustain long-term growth. Emerson is in a strong financial position, with total assets of $42 billion and common stockholders' equity of $20 billion, and has the resources available for reinvestment in existing businesses, strategic acquisitions and managing its capital structure on a short- and long-term basis.

This system also is designed to ensure information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company's certifying officers, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on an evaluation performed, the certifying officers have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, there can be no assurance that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures will detect or uncover all failures of persons within the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries to report material information otherwise required to be set forth in the Company's reports.

There was no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
