Xylem Reports Third Quarter 2026 Results and Announces

Strategic Actions to Accelerate Growth

•Strong orders and backlog, solid earnings performance and margin expansion reflect operational excellence despite a more cautious spending environment

•Company accelerates transformation strategy, announces intent to divest Applied Water International and Specialty Flow Control; and move to three segment structure in 2027

WASHINGTON, D.C., October 27, 2026 – Xylem Inc. (NYSE: XYL), a leading global water solutions company dedicated to solving the world’s most challenging water issues, today reported third-quarter 2026 results and announced actions to further accelerate its portfolio transformation.

While revenue was impacted by project timing and more cautious spending decisions, strong order activity and solid earnings performance demonstrated the resilience of the business and the benefits of the company’s transformation. Xylem also announced its intent to divest Applied Water International and Specialty Flow Control, and beginning in 2027, the alignment of its businesses from four segments to three.

Third Quarter Results

Highlights:

•Orders of $2.3 billion, up 7% on a reported basis and 10% organically

•Revenue of $2.2 billion, down 3% on a reported basis and flat organically

•Earnings per share of $1.25, up 34%; $1.44 on an adjusted basis, up 5%

Third quarter results reflected a mixed operating environment. The company delivered total revenue of $2.2 billion against a dynamic backdrop. Third-quarter earnings per share were up 34 percent on a reported basis and 5 percent on an adjusted basis.

Net income attributable to Xylem for the quarter was $291 million, or $1.25 per share. Net income margin increased 320 basis points to 13.2 percent. These results are primarily driven by strong operational performance and lower loss on sale of businesses, partially offset by increased interest and income tax expense. Adjusted net income attributable to Xylem was $336 million, or $1.44 per share, which excludes purchase accounting intangible amortization, loss on sale of businesses, restructuring and realignment costs, and special charges, including the impact of IEEPA tariff refunds.

Third-quarter adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) margin was 23.9 percent, reflecting a year-over-year increase of 70 basis points. Productivity savings and strong price realization drove the margin expansion, exceeding the impact of inflation, lower volumes, and mix.

Outlook

Xylem now forecasts full-year 2026 revenue of approximately $8.95 billion, down 1 percent year over year on a reported basis, versus prior guidance of up 2 percent, and flat on an organic basis, versus prior guidance of up 2 to 3 percent.

Full-year 2026 adjusted EBITDA margin is expected to be approximately 23.2 percent, an increase of 100 basis points versus Xylem’s 2025 adjusted results. This results in full-year adjusted earnings per share of $5.40 to $5.45, down from the previous guidance range of $5.55 to $5.70. Full-year free cash flow margin is expected to be approximately 10.2 percent, versus 10.2 to 11.0 percent previously guided.

Further 2026 planning assumptions are included in Xylem’s third-quarter 2026 earnings materials posted at www.xylem.com/investors. Excluding revenue, Xylem provides guidance only on a non-GAAP basis due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting certain amounts that would be included in GAAP earnings, such as discrete tax items, without unreasonable effort.

Supplemental information on Xylem’s third-quarter earnings, as well as definitions of and reconciliations for certain non-GAAP items is posted at www.xylem.com/investors.

Sharpening Xylem’s Focus for Growth

Xylem's planned divestiture of Applied Water International and Specialty Flow Control and its move to a three-segment structure are designed to create a more focused company aligned around customer needs and long-term growth priorities.

The planned divestitures further sharpen Xylem’s focus, enabling the company to direct capital toward the technologies, capabilities and markets that align most closely with its long-term strategy. Xylem is already seeing momentum in high-growth industry verticals, including data centers and microelectronics, reinforcing the opportunity to increase investment and exposure in these markets.

Beginning January 1, 2027, Xylem will align its business into three segments: Treatment and Services, Flow Solutions, and Measurement and Analytics. The new structure brings together complementary technologies and capabilities around the core activities of moving water, treating water, and measuring and optimizing

WASHINGTON, D.C., July 28, 2026 -- Xylem Inc. (NYSE: XYL), a leading global water solutions company dedicated to solving the world’s most challenging water issues, today reported second-quarter 2026 results. The Company delivered total revenue of $2.3 billion, on strong execution. Second-quarter earnings per share were up 19 percent on a reported basis and 16 percent on an adjusted basis.

“The demand drivers behind our business continue to strengthen,” said Matthew Pine, Xylem’s CEO. “Water is becoming increasingly strategic for both utilities and industrial customers. We’ve spent the past several years positioning Xylem for this. Now we’re seeing that strategy create new opportunities and strengthen our competitive position. With a resilient municipal foundation, increasing exposure to attractive industrial markets and a more focused portfolio, we believe Xylem is well positioned for long-term growth and profitability.”

“The opportunities we see today extend well beyond any single end market,” Pine continued. “The growth of AI infrastructure is increasing the strategic importance of water across a broader industrial ecosystem from semiconductors and power generation to mining and other critical industries. At the same time, we are seeing increasing demand across sectors such as food and beverage and life sciences, where water quality, reliability and operational performance are essential. These trends are broadening our opportunity set and reinforcing our confidence in the durability of our long-term strategy.”

Net income attributable to Xylem for the quarter was $263 million, or $1.11 per share. Net income margin increased 150 basis points to 11.3 percent. These results are driven by strong operational performance and lower restructuring and realignment costs, partially offset by increased income tax expense and loss on sale of businesses.
