Donaldson Reports Record Third Quarter Fiscal 2026 Sales and Earnings

Third quarter sales of $995.1 million, up 5.8%

Operating margin of 15.6%; All-time high adjusted operating margin of 16.6%

GAAP EPS of $1.00; Adjusted EPS of $1.06, up 7.1%

Closed margin-accretive Facet acquisition, enhancing Industrial Solutions product portfolio

Narrowing fiscal 2026 guidance, including record sales, adjusted operating margin and adjusted EPS

MINNEAPOLIS (June 2, 2026) — Donaldson Company, Inc. (NYSE: DCI) (Donaldson or the Company), a global leader in technology-led filtration products and solutions, today reported third quarter fiscal 2026 generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) net earnings of $118.1 million, compared with $57.8 million a year ago. Earnings per share (EPS)1 were $1.00 compared with third quarter fiscal 2025 EPS of $0.48. Third quarter fiscal 2026 results include $9.8 million of pre-tax, non-recurring net charges versus $65.8 million in the prior year. Excluding these items, adjusted third quarter results2,3 reflect net earnings of $125.5 million compared with $118.9 million in fiscal 2025, and EPS of $1.06 versus $0.99 a year ago.

“Third quarter results marked a significant sequential step-up in performance, including all-time high sales, adjusted operating margin and adjusted earnings.” said Rich Lewis, president and chief executive officer. “Strong performance in our Mobile and Life Sciences segments more than offset near-term operating headwinds in the Industrial segment, demonstrating the benefit of our diversified portfolio of businesses.

“As we work towards a strong finish to fiscal 2026, including another step-up in operating margin in the fourth quarter, our focus remains on delivering for our customers and thoughtfully investing to increase our scale while generating profitable growth. Our heightened backlogs, driven by robust order volume, combined with focused execution and expense discipline, give us confidence in delivering full-year record sales, adjusted operating margin and adjusted earnings, proving yet again, the strength of Donaldson Company.”

1 All EPS figures refer to diluted EPS.

2 Adjusted third quarter fiscal 2026 results exclude pre-tax charges of $9.0 million for restructuring and other, and $0.8 million of business development charges. Adjusted third quarter fiscal 2025 results exclude pre-tax charges of $4.2 million for restructuring and other, $0.8 million of business development charges, $62.0 million for the impairment of intangible assets, and a $1.2 million gain on the sale of fixed assets.

3 Adjusted figures are non-GAAP financial measures that excludes the impact of certain items not related to ongoing operations. The tables attached to this press release include a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures.

Mobile Solutions segment (Mobile) sales increased 8.1% as a result of higher volumes, favorable currency translation, and net pricing benefits. Off-Road sales increased 8.8% due to improving end-market conditions, particularly in Construction. On-Road sales rose 5.2% from increased truck production, primarily in EMEA. Aftermarket sales increased 8.1% with growth in all regions and in both the OE and independent channel, including a double-digit increase in the independent channel.

Industrial Solutions segment (Industrial) sales declined 0.6% versus prior year as lower volumes more than offset net pricing benefits and favorable currency translation. Industrial Filtration Solutions (IFS) sales increased 2.3%, driven by net pricing benefits and ongoing strength in Power Generation new equipment sales, partially offset by volume declines in Industrial Gases and dust collection. Aerospace and Defense sales decreased 13.5% due to weaker new equipment sales, driven by ongoing supply chain constraints and project timing.

Life Sciences segment (Life Sciences) sales increased 12.7% from new equipment volume growth in Food and Beverage and Disk Drive.
