Item 2.02Results of Operations and Financial Condition
Today, February 5, 2026, the Registrant is issuing a press release (furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this report) announcing its fiscal 2026 first quarter financial and operating results. See Item 7.01, Regulation FD Disclosure, below.
Item 5.07Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
The 2026 Annual Meeting of the Registrant’s stockholders was held on January 30, 2026. Each of the 25,874,368 shares of common stock entitled to vote at the meeting was entitled to one vote on each matter voted on at the meeting. The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares represented in person or by proxy at the meeting was required to elect each director and to approve each of the other proposals considered at the meeting. The vote totals below are rounded down to the nearest whole share, and Broker Non-Votes are not considered to be entitled to vote on the matter in question and are therefore not counted in determining the number of votes required for approval.
At the meeting, there were 24,259,347 shares represented and entitled to vote on one or more matters at the meeting, or approximately 93.8% of the outstanding shares. The voting on each of the proposals was as follows:
Proposal 1 – Election of Directors (for terms expiring at the 2029 Annual Meeting):
Nominee “For” “Withhold” Broker
Non-Votes
Percent of Shares
Represented and
Entitled to Vote
on the Nominee
Voting “For” Percent of all
Outstanding
Shares
Voting “For”
Patrick M. Dewar 22,753,584 840,225 665,538 96.4% 87.9%
Vinod M. Khilnani 22,799,411 794,398 665,538 96.6% 88.1%
Robert J. Phillippy 20,609,699 2,984,110 665,538 87.4% 79.7%
Because each nominee received a majority of the shares represented at the meeting and entitled to vote on the nominee, all of the nominees were duly elected.
Proposal 2 – Advisory vote on the resolution to approve the compensation of the Registrant’s executive officers (“Say on Pay”):
“For” “Against” “Abstain” Broker
Non-Votes

Outstanding

Voting “For”
23,188,942 383,828 21,038 665,538 98.3% 89.6%
Because the proposal received a majority of the shares represented at the meeting and entitled to vote on the matter, it was duly approved.
Proposal 3 – Amendment to the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase plan as described in the Proxy Statement for the Meeting and attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1:
“For” “Against” “Abstain” Broker

Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition
Today, November 20, 2025, ESCO Technologies Inc. (the Registrant, or the “Company”) is issuing a press release (furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this report) announcing its financial and operating results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended September 30, 2025. See Item 7.01, Regulation FD Disclosure, below.
Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
Executive Officers – Long-Term Equity
Incentive Awards
On November 17, 2025, the Human Resources and Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors approved the fiscal 2026 awards of time-based Restricted Share Units (RSUs) and Performance Share Units (PSUs) to the Company’s three executive officers and the other participants in the Company’s LTI program, effective November 17, 2025.
Other than the share amounts, the terms of the fiscal 2026 RSUs (and future RSUs except to the extent hereafter amended by the HRCC) are substantially similar to those awarded for fiscal 2025, vesting over a period of approximately three years, in three equal portions approximately 12, 24 and 36 months after the grant date; for the fiscal 2026 awards, vesting will occur on the last NYSE trading days in November 2026, 2027 and 2028.
The terms of the fiscal 2026 PSUs (and future PSUs except to the extent hereafter amended by the HRCC) are substantially similar to those awarded for fiscal 2025 other than the specific share amounts and performance goals. The fiscal 2026 PSUs will vest after a three-year performance period beginning October 1, 2025 and ending on September 30, 2028, on the last trading day of the month in which the HRCC approves and certifies the extent to which the applicable performance goals have been achieved. Upon vesting, the awards will be converted into a currently undeterminable number of shares of Company common stock, which may be less than or greater than the number of PSUs awarded, within certain specified threshold and maximum limits, depending on the degree to which the Company has achieved one or more specified performance goals. If the performance is less than the threshold goal for a particular performance measure, there will be no payout of that portion of the PSUs dependent on that measure.
The performance goals for the fiscal 2026 PSUs are specified Committee-approved targets for EBITDA (60%) and Return on Invested Capital (40%), with the resulting number of shares potentially subject to increase or decrease based on the Company’s Total Shareholder Return (TSR) over the performance period compared to the TSR of the companies in a peer group based on the S&P Small-Cap 600 Industrials Index (rTSR). If the Company’s rTSR is below the 25th percentile or above the 75th percentile, the resulting number of shares will be decreased b

This page provides ESCO Technologies Inc. (ESE) earnings call transcripts from SEC 8-K filings along with AI-powered predictions for post-earnings price movements. Our machine learning models analyze historical earnings data, pre-earnings price patterns, volume changes, and volatility to predict 1-day, 5-day, and 20-day returns after each earnings release.
Earnings transcripts are sourced directly from SEC EDGAR filings. Predictions are generated using gradient boosting models trained on ESE's historical earnings reactions. All predicted returns are shown as percentages, and predicted prices are calculated from the closing price at the time of prediction. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
