*The Notes to Financial Statements are an integral part of this statement.*

**Illinois Tool Works Inc. and Subsidiaries**

**Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)**

**(1)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Significant Accounting Policies**

**Financial Statements**— The unaudited financial statements included herein have been prepared by Illinois Tool Works Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Company"). In the opinion of management, the interim financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair statement of the results for interim periods. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes to financial statements included in the Company's 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain reclassifications of prior year data have been made to conform with current year reporting.

**Inventories**— Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value and include material, labor and factory overhead. As of December 31, 2023, the last-in, first-out ("LIFO") method was used to determine the cost of inventories at certain U.S. businesses representing approximately 23% of total inventories, and the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") method, which approximates current cost, was used for all other inventories.

During the first quarter of 2024, the Company changed the method used to determine the cost of inventory at certain U.S. businesses from LIFO to the FIFO method, as the Company believes the FIFO method is preferable because it provides a more consistent method for valuing inventory across the Company's operations, improves comparability with peers, and better reflects the current value of inventories at the balance sheet date.

The LIFO provision for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $6 million of expense and was not material to the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Therefore, the Company recorded the pre-tax cumulative effect of this change in accounting method of $117 million as a reduction of Cost of revenue in the first quarter of 2024. Refer to Note 6. Inventories for additional information regarding the Company's inventory balances.

**New Accounting Pronouncements**

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued authoritative guidance which expands annual and interim disclosure requirements for reportable segments. The more significant provisions of this new guidance include the requirement to disclose significant segment expenses and certain disclosures made annually under existing guidance are required for interim periods. The Company adopted this new guidance beginning with its annual reporting for the year ended December 31, 2024 and applied the new disclosure requirements retrospectively to all periods presented. The new guidance did not have an impact on the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flows for any period. Refer to Note 10. Segment Information for additional information.

In December 2023, the FASB issued authoritative guidance that expands the disclosure requirements for income taxes. The new guidance will require consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information presented in the effective tax rate reconciliation as well as disaggregation of income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning with its annual reporting for the year ending December 31, 2025 and is required to be applied prospectively, with retrospective application to prior periods allowed. The Company is currently assessing the impact the guidance will have on its disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued authoritative guidance which expands annual and interim disclosure requirements related to certain costs and expenses recorded in the income statement. The primary provisions of this new guidance require companies to provide additional footnote disclosures disaggregating income statement line items that include purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization. The guidance will be effective for the Company beginning with its annual reporting for the year ending December 31, 2027 and is required to be applied prospectively, with retrospective application to prior periods allowed. The Company is currently assessing the impact the guidance will have on its disclosures.

**(2)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Acquisitions**

On January 2, 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of one business in the Test & Measurement and Electronics segment for $57 million, net of cash acquired. On April 1, 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of one business in the Test & Measurement and Electronics segment for $59 million, net of cash acquired. The Company has completed the allocation of purchase price for both of these acquisitions. These acquisitions were not material, individually or in the aggregate, to the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

The Company typically recognizes revenue for products in this segment at the time of shipment. Certain products may be produced utilizing tooling that is owned by the customer that the Company developed and is reimbursed by the customer for the associated cost. In these arrangements, the Company typically retains a contractual right to use the customer-owned tooling for the purpose of fulfilling its obligations under the supply agreement. The Company records reimbursements for the cost of customer-owned tooling as a cost offset rather than operating revenue as tooling is not considered a product offering central to the Company's operations.

***Food Equipment*—** This segment is a highly focused and branded industry leader in commercial food equipment differentiated by innovation and integrated service offerings. This segment primarily serves the food service, food retail and food institutional/restaurant markets. Products in this segment include:

**(4)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Income Taxes**

The Company's effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was 24.4% in both periods and 23.1% and 24.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The effective tax rates for 2025 and 2024 included discrete tax benefits related to excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation of $1 million and $1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $5 million and $10 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Additionally, the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2025 included a discrete tax benefit of $21 million in the first quarter of 2025 related to the reversal of a valuation allowance on net operating loss carryforwards.

The Company and its subsidiaries file tax returns in the U.S. and various state, local and foreign jurisdictions. These tax returns are routinely audited by the tax authorities in these jurisdictions, including the Internal Revenue Service, His Majesty's Revenue and Customs, German Fiscal Authority, French Fiscal Authority, and Australian Tax Office, and a number of these audits are currently ongoing, which may increase the amount of the unrecognized tax benefits in future periods. The Company believes it is reasonably possible that within the next twelve months the amount of the Company's unrecognized tax benefits may be decreased by approximately $11 million related predominantly to the potential resolution of federal, state and foreign examinations. The Company has recorded its best estimate of the potential exposure for these issues.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the "Act") was enacted in the United States. The provisions of the Act extend and modify certain provisions of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. While the provisions of the Act are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's operating results, financial position or cash flows for the twelve months ending December 31, 2025, the Company is assessing the potential impact of the Act on future periods.

**(5)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Net Income Per Share**

Net income per basic share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding for the period. Net income per diluted share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares assuming dilution for stock options and restricted stock units. Dilutive shares reflect the potential additional shares that would be outstanding if the dilutive stock options outstanding were exercised and the unvested restricted stock units vested during the period. The computation of net income per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was as follows:

---

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Net income per share—Basic | $2.58 | $2.55 | $4.97 | $5.29 |
| Net income per share—Diluted: |  |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Weighted-average common shares | 292.3 | 297.6 | 292.9 | 298.3 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Effect of dilutive stock options and restricted stock units | 0.6 | 0.9 | 0.8 | 1.0 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Weighted-average common shares assuming dilution | 292.9 | 298.5 | 293.7 | 299.3 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Net income per share—Diluted | $2.58 | $2.54 | $4.95 | $5.27 |

The CODM primarily uses operating income and related operating margins in assessing the current and expected long-term performance of the Company's segments, including the application of the Company's enterprise strategies which focus on profitable growth and continuous improvement to margins and returns through the application of the Company's business model. Operating income and margins are also used by the CODM when evaluating segment investments in capital projects and restructuring initiatives. The CODM regularly reviews summarized financial information related to segment operating revenue, variable margins, overhead expenses, operating income and operating margins as compared to forecasted results.

Intersegment sales transactions are accounted for at prices consistent with sales to third parties and are not considered material. Segments are allocated a fixed overhead charge for general corporate administrative expenses based on a percentage of the segment's operating revenue. Expenses not allocated to the segments are reported separately as Unallocated. Because the Unallocated category includes a variety of items, it is subject to fluctuations on a quarterly and annual basis.

**<u>ITEM 2.</u>*<u>Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations</u>***

**INTRODUCTION**

Illinois Tool Works Inc. (the "Company" or "ITW") is a global manufacturer of a diversified range of industrial products and equipment. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had 86 divisions with approximately 44,000 people in 51 countries.

The Company's operations are organized and managed based on similar product offerings and end markets, and are reported to senior management as the following seven segments: Automotive OEM; Food Equipment; Test & Measurement and Electronics; Welding; Polymers & Fluids; Construction Products; and Specialty Products.

Due to the large number of diverse businesses and the Company's decentralized operating structure, the Company does not require its businesses to provide detailed information on operating results. Instead, the Company's corporate management collects data on several key measurements: operating revenue, operating income, operating margin, variable cost of revenue, overhead expenses, number of months on hand in inventory, days sales outstanding in accounts receivable, past due receivables and return on invested capital. These key measures are monitored by management and significant changes in operating results versus current trends in end markets and variances from forecasts are discussed with operating unit management.

**THE ITW BUSINESS MODEL**

The powerful and highly differentiated ITW Business Model is the Company's core source of value creation. It is the Company's competitive advantage and defines how ITW creates value for its shareholders. The ITW Business Model is comprised of three unique elements:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ITW's **80/20 Front-to-Back** process is the operating system that is applied in every ITW business. Initially introduced as a manufacturing efficiency tool in the 1980s, ITW has continually refined, improved and expanded 80/20 into a proprietary, holistic business management process that generates significant value for the Company and its customers. Through the application of data driven insights generated by 80/20 practice, ITW focuses on its largest and best opportunities (the "80") and eliminates cost, complexity and distractions associated with the less profitable opportunities (the "20"). 80/20 enables ITW businesses to consistently achieve world-class operational excellence in product availability, quality, and innovation, while generating superior financial performance;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Customer-back Innovation** has fueled decades of profitable growth at ITW. The Company's unique innovation approach is built on insight gathered from the 80/20 Front-to-Back process. Working from the customer back, ITW businesses position themselves as the go-to problem solver for their "80" customers. ITW's innovation efforts are focused on understanding customer needs, particularly those in "80" markets with solid long-term growth fundamentals, and creating unique solutions to address those needs. These customer insights and learnings drive innovation at ITW and have contributed to a portfolio of approximately 20,900 granted and pending patents;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ITW's **Decentralized, Entrepreneurial Culture** enables ITW businesses to be fast, focused, and responsive. ITW businesses have significant flexibility within the framework of the ITW Business Model to customize their approach in order to best serve their specific customers' needs. ITW colleagues recognize their unique responsibilities to execute the Company's strategy and values. As a result, the Company maintains a focused and simple organizational structure that, combined with outstanding execution, delivers best-in-class services and solutions adapted to each business' customers and end markets.

**ENTERPRISE STRATEGY: 2012 - 2023**

In late 2012, ITW began its strategic framework transitioning the Company to fully leverage the unique and powerful set of capabilities and operating practices of the ITW Business Model. The Company undertook a complete review of its performance, focusing on its businesses delivering consistent above-market growth with best-in-class margins and returns, and developing a strategy to replicate that performance across its operations. ITW determined that solid and consistent above-market organic growth is the core growth engine to deliver world-class financial performance and compelling long-term returns for its shareholders.

Key initiatives in the Company's enterprise strategy included portfolio management, business structure simplification, strategic sourcing and the diligent re-application of ITW's proprietary 80/20 Front-to-Back process.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• As part of the Portfolio Management initiative, ITW exited businesses that were operating in commoditized market spaces and prioritized sustainable differentiation as a must-have requirement for all ITW businesses. This process

------

included both divesting entire businesses and exiting commoditized product lines and customers inside otherwise highly differentiated ITW divisions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Business Structure Simplification was implemented to simplify and scale up ITW's operating structure to support increased engineering, marketing, and sales resources, and improve global reach and competitiveness, all of which were critical to driving accelerated organic growth. ITW now has 86 scaled-up divisions with significantly enhanced focus on growth investments, core customers and products, and customer-back innovation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Strategic Sourcing initiative established sourcing as a core strategic and operational capability at ITW, delivering an average of one percent reduction in spend each year since 2013 and continues to be a key contributor to the Company's ongoing enterprise strategy.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• With the initial portfolio realignment and scale-up work largely completed, the Company shifted its focus to preparing for and accelerating organic growth, reapplying the 80/20 Front-to-Back process to optimize its scaled-up divisions for growth, first, to build a foundation of operational excellence, and second, to identify the best opportunities to drive organic growth.

Since implementing the Company's enterprise strategy in 2012, the Company has demonstrated the compelling performance potential of the ITW Business Model and superior 80/20 management, resulting in meaningful incremental improvement in margins and returns as evidenced by the Company's operating margin and after-tax return on invested capital. At the same time, these 80/20 initiatives may also result in restructuring initiatives that reduce costs and improve profitability and returns.

**OUR NEXT PHASE: 2024 - 2030**

In the Next Phase of the Company's evolution, the ITW Business Model and the Enterprise Strategy framework will be as formidable of a competitive advantage and performance differentiator as it has been over the last decade, if not more so. Volatility, risk and the pace of change in the global operating environment will continue to increase, and a decentralized entrepreneurial culture allows the Company to be a fast adaptor – to read, react, respond and evolve. The Company's ability to consistently execute and invest through the ups and downs of the business cycle is now a defining competitive advantage.

Throughout the Next Phase, the Company's focus is to build organic growth into a core ITW strength on par with the Company's world-class financial performance and operational capabilities. Throughout this phase, the Company will sustain its foundational strengths built over the past decade, including the high-quality ITW Business Model practice. Customer-back Innovation ("CBI") is the most impactful driver to achieve high-quality organic growth through the cycle by establishing trusted problem solver relationships with key customers to effectively invent solutions that address customers' most critical pain points or tackle the biggest growth opportunities. CBI successes, coupled with underlying market growth and share gains, are how the Company intends to achieve its high-quality organic growth.

ITW will continue to drive 80/20 Front-to-Back practice excellence in every division in the Company, every day. Driving strong operational excellence in the quality of 80/20 Front-to-Back practice across the Company, division by division, will produce further customer-facing performance improvement in a number of divisions and additional structural margin expansion at the enterprise level.

**Portfolio Discipline**

The Company only operates in industries where it can generate significant, long-term competitive advantage from the ITW Business Model. ITW businesses have the right "raw material" in terms of market and business attributes that best fit the ITW Business Model and have significant potential to drive above-market organic growth over the long-term.

The Company focuses on high-quality businesses, ensuring it operates in markets with positive long-term macro fundamentals and with customers that have critical needs and value ITW's differentiated products, services and solutions. ITW's portfolio operates in highly diverse end markets and geographies which makes the Company more resilient in the face of uncertain or volatile market environments.

The Company routinely evaluates its portfolio to ensure it delivers sustainable differentiation and drives consistent long-term performance. This includes both implementing portfolio refinements and assessing selective high-quality acquisitions to supplement ITW's long-term growth potential.

**TERMS USED BY ITW**

Management uses the following terms to describe the financial results of operations of the Company:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**• Organic business** - acquired businesses that have been included in the Company's results of operations for more than 12 months on a constant currency basis.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Operating leverage** - the estimated effect of the organic revenue volume changes on organic operating income, assuming variable margins remain the same as the prior period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Price/cost** - represents the estimated net impact of increases or decreases in the cost of materials used in the Company's products versus changes in the selling price to the Company's customers.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Product line simplification ("PLS")** - focuses businesses on eliminating the complexity and overhead costs associated with smaller product lines and customers, and focuses businesses on supporting and growing their largest customers and product lines. In the short-term, PLS may result in a decrease in revenue and overhead costs while improving operating margin. In the long-term, PLS is expected to result in growth in revenue, profitability, and returns.

Unless otherwise stated, the changes in financial results in the consolidated results of operations and the results of operations by segment represent the current year period versus the comparable period in the prior year. The following discussion of operating results should be read in conjunction with Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Company's 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

**CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS**

During the first quarter of 2022, Russian military forces invaded Ukraine. In response, the United States and several other countries imposed economic and other sanctions on Russia. The Company has four immaterial Russian subsidiaries with total assets of approximately $37 million as of June 30, 2025. The revenue for these four subsidiaries for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 was approximately $7 million and $12 million, respectively. These subsidiaries are not material to the Company's results of operations or financial position.

On January 2, 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of one business in the Test & Measurement and Electronics segment for $57 million, net of cash acquired. On April 1, 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of one business in the Test & Measurement and Electronics segment for $59 million, net of cash acquired. The Company has completed the allocation of purchase price for both of these acquisitions. These acquisitions were not material, individually or in the aggregate, to the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Refer to Note 2. Acquisitions in Item 1. Financial Statements for further information regarding these acquisitions.

During the first quarter of 2024, the Company changed the method used to determine the cost of inventory at certain U.S. businesses from LIFO to the FIFO method, as the Company believes the FIFO method is preferable because it provides a more consistent method for valuing inventory across the Company's operations, improves comparability with peers, and better reflects the current value of inventories at the balance sheet date. The LIFO provision for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $6 million of expense, and was not material to the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Therefore, the Company recorded the pre-tax cumulative effect of this change in accounting method of $117 million as a reduction of Cost of revenue in the first quarter of 2024. Refer to Note 1. Significant Accounting Policies in Item 1. Financial Statements for additional information regarding this change in accounting method.

On April 2, 2025, the United States government announced additional tariffs on goods imported to the U.S. from numerous countries. In response, certain countries retaliated with additional counter-tariffs or are working to negotiate with the U.S government regarding tariffs. Tariffs on goods from many countries were subsequently paused and are currently expected to be effective August 1, 2025. The Company believes it is well positioned to minimize the impact of these tariffs because its businesses generally manufacture products in the markets where they are sold and the Company expects to recover the increased cost of tariffs through price increases. However, current tariff policies have introduced additional uncertainty and may negatively impact overall demand from the Company's customers. The Company continues to assess the impact of the tariffs and actions that can be taken to moderate and/or minimize their effects on the Company.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the "Act") was enacted in the United States. The provisions of the Act extend and modify certain provisions of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. While the provisions of the Act are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's operating results, financial position or cash flows for the twelve months ending December 31, 2025, the Company is assessing the potential impact of the Act on future periods.

------

In an uncertain external environment, the Company delivered solid financial results in the second quarter and year-to-date periods of 2025 primarily due to the continued successful execution of enterprise initiatives and continued focus on the highly differentiated ITW Business Model.

**Operating Revenue**

Refer to the "Results of Operations for Total Company" and the "Results of Operations by Segment" sections for discussion of changes in operating revenue for the second quarter and year-to-date periods of 2025 compared to 2024.

| &nbsp;&nbsp; Percent of operating revenue | 0.5% | 0.6% | 0.5% | 0.6% |

---

Cost of revenue was $2.27 billion and $2.26 billion in the second quarter of 2025 and 2024, respectively, an increase of 0.4%, primarily due to higher revenue. Cost of revenue as a percent of operating revenue was lower in the second quarter of 2025 compared to 2024 primarily due to benefits from the Company's enterprise initiatives, partially offset by higher employee-related expenses. In the year-to-date period, Cost of revenue was $4.43 billion and $4.41 billion in 2025 and 2024, respectively, an increase of 0.6%. Excluding the first quarter 2024 LIFO accounting method change of $117 million, Cost of revenue decreased 2.0% in 2025 compared to 2024 primarily due to lower revenue and the effect of foreign currency translation. Cost of revenue, excluding the first quarter 2024 LIFO accounting method change, as a percent of operating revenue was lower in the year-to-date period of 2025 compared to 2024 primarily due to benefits from the Company's enterprise initiatives, partially offset by unfavorable operating leverage.

Selling, administrative, and research and development expenses were $693 million and $686 million in the second quarter of 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $1.40 billion and $1.36 billion in the year-to-date period of 2025 and 2024, respectively. Selling, administrative, and research and development expenses as a percent of operating revenue were higher in the second quarter and year-to-date periods of 2025 compared to the respective 2024 periods primarily due to higher employee-related expenses, partially offset by benefits from the Company's enterprise initiatives.

Amortization and impairment of intangible assets was lower in the second quarter and year-to-date periods of 2025 compared to 2024 primarily due to fully amortized intangible assets.

Refer to the "Results of Operations for Total Company" and the "Results of Operation by Segment" sections for additional discussion of operating results for the second quarter and year-to-date periods of 2025 compared to 2024.

**NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS**

Information regarding new accounting pronouncements is included in Note 1. Significant Accounting Policies in Item 1. Financial Statements.

**LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES**

The Company's primary sources of liquidity are free cash flow and short-term credit facilities. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had $788 million of cash and equivalents on hand and no outstanding borrowings under its $3.0 billion revolving credit facility. The Company also has maintained strong access to public debt markets. Management believes that these sources are sufficient to service debt and to finance the Company's capital allocation priorities, which include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• internal investments to support organic growth and sustain core businesses;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• payment of an attractive dividend to shareholders; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• external investments in selective strategic acquisitions that support the Company's organic growth focus and an active share repurchase program.

The Company believes that, based on its operating revenue, operating margin, free cash flow, and credit ratings, it could readily obtain additional financing, if necessary.

------

***Cash Flow***

The Company uses free cash flow to measure cash flow generated by operations that is available for dividends, share repurchases, acquisitions and debt repayment. The Company believes this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors in evaluating the Company's financial performance and measures the Company's ability to generate cash internally to fund Company initiatives. Free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities less additions to plant and equipment. Free cash flow is a measurement that is not the same as net cash flow from operating activities per the statement of cash flows and may not be consistent with similarly titled measures used by other companies. Summarized cash flow information for the second quarter and year-to-date periods of 2025 and 2024 was as follows:

***Stock Repurchase Programs***

On August 4, 2023, the Company announced a new stock repurchase program which provides for the repurchase of up to $5.0 billion of the Company's common stock over an open-ended period of time (the "2023 Program"). Under the 2023 program, the Company repurchased approximately 38,000 shares of its common stock at an average price of $263.44 per share in the fourth quarter of 2023, approximately 1.4 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $259.07 per share in the first quarter of 2024, approximately 1.6 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $247.42 in the second quarter of 2024, approximately 1.5 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $244.88 in the third quarter of 2024, approximately 1.4 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $265.95 in the fourth quarter of 2024, approximately 1.5 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $257.14 in the first quarter of 2025, and approximately 1.5 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $241.19 in the second quarter of 2025.

***After-tax Return on Average Invested Capital***

The Company uses after-tax return on average invested capital ("After-tax ROIC") to measure the effectiveness of its operations' use of invested capital to generate profits. After-tax ROIC is not defined under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). After-tax ROIC is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Company believes is a meaningful metric to investors in evaluating the Company's ability to generate returns from cash invested in its operations and may be different than the method used by other companies to calculate After-tax ROIC. The Company defines After-tax ROIC as operating income after taxes divided by average invested capital, which is annualized when presented in interim periods. Operating income after taxes is a non-GAAP measure consisting of net income before interest expense and other income (expense), on an after-tax basis, which are excluded as they do not represent returns generated by the Company's operations. For comparability, the Company also excluded the discrete tax benefit of $21 million in the first quarter of 2025 from net income and the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Total invested capital represents the net assets of the Company, other than cash and equivalents and outstanding debt which do not represent capital investment in the Company's operations. The most comparable GAAP measure to operating income after taxes is net income. Net income to average invested capital and After-tax ROIC for the second quarter and year-to-date periods of 2025 and 2024 were as follows:

***Working Capital***

Management uses working capital as a measurement of the short-term liquidity of the Company. Net working capital as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 is summarized as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **In millions** | **June 30, 2025** | **December 31, 2024** | **Increase/<br>(Decrease)** |

---

As of June 30, 2025, a significant portion of the Company's cash and equivalents was held by international subsidiaries. Cash and equivalents held internationally may be subject to foreign withholding taxes if repatriated to the U.S. Cash and equivalents held internationally are typically used for international operating needs or reinvested to fund expansion of existing international businesses. International funds may also be used to fund international acquisitions or, if not considered permanently invested, may be repatriated to the U.S. The Company has accrued for foreign withholding taxes related to foreign held cash and equivalents that are not permanently invested.

In the U.S., the Company utilizes cash flows from operations to fund domestic cash needs and the Company's capital allocation priorities. This includes operating needs of the U.S. businesses, dividend payments, share repurchases, acquisitions, servicing of domestic debt obligations, reinvesting to fund expansion of existing U.S. businesses and general corporate needs. The Company may also use its commercial paper program, which is supported by a long-term credit facility, for short-term liquidity needs.

------

The Company believes cash generated by operations and liquidity provided by the Company's commercial paper program will continue to be sufficient to fund cash requirements in the U.S.

***Debt***

Total debt as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **In millions** | **June 30, 2025** | **December 31, 2024** |
| Short-term debt | $1242 | $1555 |
| Long-term debt | 7695 | 6308 |
| Total debt | $8937 | $7863 |

---

Short-term debt included commercial paper of $1.2 billion and $778 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The weighted-average interest rate on commercial paper as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was 4.35% and 4.56%, respectively.

As of December 31, 2024, Short-term debt also included $777 million related to the Euro-denominated credit agreement entered into on May 5, 2023 (the "Euro Credit Agreement"). On February 24, 2025, the Company entered into an amendment to the Euro Credit Agreement to extend the termination date from April 30, 2025 to February 28, 2027, with an option to further extend the termination date to September 15, 2027. The amendment also decreased the interest rate spread applicable to the loans from 0.75% to 0.70% and removed the option for a one-month interest period. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had $884 million outstanding under the Euro Credit Agreement with an interest rate of 2.71%, which was included in Long-term debt.

On May 17, 2024, the Company issued €650 million of 3.25% Euro notes due May 17, 2028 at 99.525% of face value and €850 million of 3.375% Euro notes due May 17, 2032 at 99.072% of face value. Proceeds from the issuance were used for general corporate purposes, including the repayment of a portion of the indebtedness under the commercial paper program and repayment of €550 million of the term loans under the Euro Credit Agreement.

The Company also has a $3.0 billion revolving credit facility with a termination date of October 21, 2027, which is available to provide additional liquidity, including to support the potential issuances of commercial paper. No amounts were outstanding under the revolving credit facility as of June 30, 2025 or December 31, 2024.

***Total Debt to EBITDA***

The Company uses the ratio of total debt to EBITDA as a measure of its ability to repay its outstanding debt obligations. EBITDA and the ratio of total debt to EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that total debt to EBITDA is a meaningful metric to investors in evaluating the Company's long term financial liquidity and may be different than the method used by other companies to calculate total debt to EBITDA. The ratio of total debt to EBITDA represents total debt divided by net income before interest expense, other income (expense), income taxes, depreciation, and amortization and impairment of intangible assets on a trailing twelve month basis. Total debt to EBITDA for the trailing twelve month periods ended June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Dollars in millions** | **June 30, 2025** | **December 31, 2024** |

| Total debt to EBITDA ratio | 2.0 | 1.7 |

---

The changes to stockholders' equity during the six months ended 2025 were as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **In millions** | |

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Dividends declared | (877) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Other comprehensive income (loss) | 9 |
