ITEM 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition On May 3, 2024, nVent Electric plc (the "Company") issued a press release announcing earnings results for the first quarter of 2024 and a conference call in connection therewith. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference. This press release refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures (organic sales, segment income, return on sales, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share and free cash flow) and a reconciliation of those non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding financial measures contained in the Company's financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The 2024 and 2023 segment income, return on sales, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share eliminate, where applicable: •Expense related to certain targeted restructuring activities. •Expense related to certain acquisition and integration activities associated with our business acquisitions. •Amortization of all intangible assets associated with our business acquisitions, including inventory step-up amortization, associated with those acquisitions. The Company excludes these non-cash expenses because the Company believes it (i) enhances management’s and investors’ ability to analyze underlying business performance, (ii) facilitates comparisons of our financial results over multiple periods, and (iii) provides more relevant comparisons of the Company's results with the results of other companies as the amortization expense, inventory step-up amortization, and acquisition related expenses may fluctuate significantly from period to period based on the timing, size, nature, and number of acquisitions. Although the Company excludes amortization of these acquired intangible assets and inventory step-up from its non-GAAP results, the Company believe that it is important for investors to understand that revenue generated, in part, from such intangibles is included within revenue in determining adjusted results. •Gain on sale of investments. •Pension and other postretirement mark-to-market loss (gain). The Company recognizes changes in the fair value of plan assets and net actuarial gains or losses for pension and other post-retirement benefits as a mark-to-market adjustment. Net actuarial gains and losses occur when the actual experience differs from any of the various assumptions used to value the Company's pension and other post-retirement plans or when assumptions change. This accounting method also results in the potential for volatile and difficult to forecast mark-to-market adjustments. The Company believes that the exclusion of pension and other postretirement mark-to-market loss (gain) better reflects the ongoing costs of providing pension and postretirement benefits to its employees. •Amortization of bridge financing debt issuance costs. •Income tax effects of the above adjustments, which are calculated using the Company's estimated non-

ITEM 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition On February 6, 2024, nVent Electric plc (the "Company") issued a press release announcing earnings results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2023 and a conference call in connection therewith. A copy of the release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference. This press release refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures (organic sales, segment income, return on sales, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share and free cash flow) and a reconciliation of those non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding financial measures contained in the Company's financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The 2023 and 2022 segment income, return on sales, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share eliminate, where applicable: •Expense related to certain targeted restructuring activities. •Expense related to certain acquisition and integration activities associated with our business acquisitions. •Amortization of all intangible assets associated with our business acquisitions, including inventory step-up amortization, associated with those acquisitions. The Company excludes these non-cash expenses because the Company believes it (i) enhances management’s and investors’ ability to analyze underlying business performance, (ii) facilitates comparisons of our financial results over multiple periods, and (iii) provides more relevant comparisons of the Company's results with the results of other companies as the amortization expense, inventory step-up amortization, and acquisition related expenses may fluctuate significantly from period to period based on the timing, size, nature, and number of acquisitions. Although the Company excludes amortization of these acquired intangible assets and inventory step-up from its non-GAAP results, the Company believes that it is important for investors to understand that revenue generated, in part, from such intangibles is included within revenue in determining adjusted results. •Gain on sale of investments. •Pension and other postretirement mark-to-market loss (gain). The Company recognizes changes in the fair value of plan assets and net actuarial gains or losses for pension and other post-retirement benefits as a mark-to-market adjustment. Net actuarial gains and losses occur when the actual experience differs from any of the various assumptions used to value the Company's pension and other post-retirement plans or when assumptions change. This accounting method also results in the potential for volatile and difficult to forecast mark-to-market adjustments. The Company believes that the exclusion of pension and other postretirement mark-to-market loss (gain) better reflects the ongoing costs of providing pension and postretirement benefits to its employees. •Amortization of bridge financing debt issuance costs. •Income tax effects of the above adjustments, which are calculated using the Com

ITEM 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition On July 29, 2022, nVent Electric plc (the "Company") issued a press release announcing earnings results for the second quarter of 2022 and a conference call in connection therewith. A copy of the release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

This press release refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures (organic sales, segment income, return on sales, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share and free cash flow) and a reconciliation of those non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding financial measures contained in the Company's financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

The 2022 and 2021 segment income, return on sales, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share eliminate, where applicable:

•Expense related to certain targeted restructuring activities. •Expense related to certain acquisition and integration activities associated with our business acquisitions. •Amortization of all intangible assets associated with our business acquisitions, including inventory step-up amortization associated with those acquisitions. The Company excludes these non-cash expenses because the Company believes it (i) enhances management’s and investors’ ability to analyze underlying business performance, (ii) facilitates comparisons of our financial results over multiple periods, and (iii) provides more relevant comparisons of the Company's results with the results of other companies as the amortization expense, inventory step-up amortization, and acquisition related expenses may fluctuate significantly from period to period based on the timing, size, nature, and number of acquisitions. Although the Company excludes amortization of these acquired intangible assets and inventory step-up from its non-GAAP results, the Company believe that it is important for investors to understand that revenue generated, in part, from such intangibles is included within revenue in determining adjusted results. •Impairment expense related to intangible assets. •Pension and other postretirement mark-to-market (gain) loss. The Company recognizes changes in the fair value of plan assets and net actuarial gains or losses for pension and other post-retirement benefits as a mark-to-market adjustment. Net actuarial gains and losses occur when the actual experience differs from any of the various assumptions used to value the Company's pension and other post-retirement plans or when assumptions change. This accounting method also results in the potential for volatile and difficult to forecast mark-to-market adjustments. The Company believes that the exclusion of pension and other postretirement mark-to-market (gain) loss better reflects the ongoing costs of providing pension and postretirement benefits to its employees. •Income tax effects of the above adjustments, which are calculated using the Company's estimated non-GAAP tax rate.
