NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Amounts in thousands except share data and where otherwise indicated) (Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim periods and do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for complete financial statements. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should therefore be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes for Dover Corporation ("Dover" or the "Company") for the year ended December 31, 2023, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 9, 2024. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements. Certain amounts in the prior year have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

The Environmental Solutions Group ("ESG") business, an operating company within the Engineered Products segment, was held for sale and reported as discontinued operations as of September 30, 2024. Therefore, the Company has classified the results of operations as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of earnings and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows and classified the assets and liabilities as held for sale in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented. The discussion in the notes to these condensed consolidated financial statements, unless otherwise noted, relates solely to our continuing operations. See Note 4 — Discontinued and Disposed Operations for further details.

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying disclosures. Although these estimates are based on management’s knowledge of current events and expectations about actions that the Company may undertake in the future, actual results may differ from those estimates. Our interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited but reflect all adjustments of a normal, recurring nature that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of results for these interim periods. The results of operations of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full year.

2. Revenue

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

A majority of the Company’s revenue is short cycle in nature with shipments within one year from order. A small portion of the Company’s revenue derives from contracts extending over one year. The Company's payment terms generally range between 30 to 90 days and vary by the location of businesses, the type of products manufactured to be sold and the volume of products sold, among other factors.

Disaggregation of Revenue
Revenue from contracts with customers is disaggregated by segment and geographic location, as they best depict the nature and amount of the Company’s revenue. See Note 16 — Segment Information for further details.

Performance Obligations

Approximately 95% of the Company’s revenue is recognized at a point in time, rather than over time as the Company completes its performance obligations. Specifically, revenue is recognized when control transfers to the customer, typically upon shipment or completion of installation, testing, certification, or other substantive acceptance provisions required under the contract. Approximately 5% of the Company’s revenue is recognized over time and relates to the sale of equipment or services, including software solutions and services, in which the Company transfers control of a good or service over time and the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Company's performance as the Company performs, or the Company's performance creates or enhances an asset the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced, or the Company's performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the Company and the Company has an enforceable right to payment for its performance to date plus a reasonable margin.

A majority of the Company's contracts have a single performance obligation which represents, in most cases, the equipment or product being sold to the customer. Some contracts include multiple performance obligations such as a product and the related

DOVER CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Amounts in thousands except share data and where otherwise indicated) (Unaudited)
installation, extended warranty, software and digital solutions, and/or maintenance services. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the total transaction price to each performance obligation in an amount based on the estimated relative standalone selling prices of the promised goods or services underlying each performance obligation.

At September 30, 2024, we estimated that $180,209 in revenue is expected to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) at the end of the reporting period. We expect to recognize approximately 65.7% of the Company's unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) performance obligations as revenue through 2025, 17.8% in 2026, with the remaining balance to be recognized in 2027 and thereafter.

The Company applied the standard's practical expedient that permits the omission of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which the Company recognizes revenue at the amount to which the Company has the right to invoice for services performed.

Contract Balances

Contract assets primarily relate to the Company's right to consideration for work completed but not billed at the reporting date. Contract liabilities relate to advance consideration received from customers or advance billings for which revenue has not been recognized and are reduced when the associated revenue from the contract is recognized.

The following table provides information about contract assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers:
 September 30, 2024December 31, 2023December 31, 2022
Contract assets - current
$12,852 $19,561 $11,074 
Contract liabilities - current185,055 194,798 241,595 
Contract liabilities - non-current15,449 7,098 6,417 

The revenue recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 that was included in contract liabilities at the beginning of the period amounted to $162,670 and $201,395, respectively.

3. Acquisitions

2024 Acquisitions

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company acquired seven businesses in separate transactions for total consideration of $636,390, net of cash acquired and inclusive of contingent consideration of $33,736 (a non-cash financing activity). These businesses were acquired to complement and expand upon existing operations within the Clean Energy & Fueling, Engineered Products and Imaging & Identification segments. The goodwill recorded as a result of these acquisitions represents the economic benefits expected to be derived from product line expansions and operational synergies and is non-deductible for income tax purposes.

On July 19, 2024, the Company acquired 100% of the equity interests in the Marshall Excelsior Company ("MEC"), a supplier of highly-engineered flow control components for transportation, storage, and use in liquified petroleum gas and other industrial gases, for $392,142, net of cash acquired. The MEC acquisition expands the Company's critical flow control capabilities in the Clean Energy & Fueling segment. In connection with this acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill of $183,878 and intangible assets of $194,100, primarily related to customer intangibles. The fair value for customer intangibles at the acquisition date was determined using the multi-period excess earnings method under the income approach. The fair value measurements of intangible assets are based on significant unobservable inputs, and thus represent Level 3 inputs. Significant assumptions used in assessing the fair values of intangible assets include discounted future cash flows, customer attrition rates and discount rates. The fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and the related tax balances, are based on preliminary estimates and assumptions. These preliminary estimates and assumptions could change significantly during the measurement period as the Company finalizes the valuations of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and the related tax balances.

The following presents the preliminary allocation of purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, for the MEC 2024 acquisition, based on the estimated fair values at acquisition date:
Total
Current assets, net of cash acquired$58,637 
Property, plant and equipment10,300 
Goodwill183,878 
Intangible assets194,100 
Other assets and deferred charges5,602 
Current liabilities(17,896)
Non-current liabilities(42,479)
Net assets acquired$392,142 

On January 17, 2024, the Company acquired 100% of the equity interests in the Transchem Group ("Transchem"), a supplier of car wash chemicals and associated solutions, for $48,241, net of cash acquired and inclusive of contingent consideration. The Transchem acquisition expands the Company's chemical product offerings in the Clean Energy & Fueling segment, specializing in wash performance and water reclaim technology that reduces water usage and lowers car wash operators' cost. In connection with this acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill of $24,712 and intangible assets of $26,309, primarily related to customer intangibles.

On January 31, 2024, the Company acquired 100% of the equity interests in Bulloch Technologies, Inc. ("Bulloch"), a provider of point-of-sale ("POS"), forecourt controller and electronic payment server solutions to the convenience retail industry, for $121,917, net of cash acquired and inclusive of contingent consideration. The acquisition of Bulloch expands the Company's offering in North America with highly complementary POS and forecourt solutions within the Clean Energy & Fueling segment. In connection with this acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill of $73,850 and intangible assets of $62,417, primarily related to customer intangibles.

On July 18, 2024, the Company acquired 100% of the equity interests in Demaco Holland B.V. ("Demaco"), a provider of critical flow control components for cryogenic applications used in a wide range of end markets, for $42,556, net of cash acquired and inclusive of contingent consideration. The acquisition of Demaco expands the Company's offering within the Clean Energy & Fueling segment. In connection with this acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill of $22,698 and intangible assets of $20,159, primarily related to customer intangibles.

On August 9, 2024, the Company acquired 100% of the equity interest in Criteria Labs, Inc. ("Criteria Labs"), a provider of radio frequency devices and microelectronic engineering solutions tailored for high-reliability applications, for $14,914, net of cash acquired and inclusive of contingent consideration. The acquisition of Criteria Labs expands the Company's offerings within the Engineered Products segment. In connection with this acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill of $7,622 and intangible assets of $7,900, primarily related to unpatented technologies.

On August 9, 2024, the Company acquired 100% of the equity interest in SPS Cryogenics B.V. and Special Gas Systems B.V ("SPS Cryogenics"), a designer, manufacturer, and supplier of vacuum-insulated piping systems for a wide variety of liquified gases, for $10,924, net of cash acquired. The acquisition of SPS Cryogenics expands the Company's presence in Europe with highly complementary offerings within the Clean Energy & Fueling segment. In connection with this acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill of $4,779 and intangible assets of $5,677, primarily related to customer intangibles.

One other immaterial acquisition was completed during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, within the Imaging & Identification segment. The acquisition is highly complementary to our existing track and trace solutions business, grows our presence in the European market and adds complementary offerings to our portfolio.

The following presents, for the six acquisitions other than MEC, the preliminary allocation of purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their estimated fair values at acquisition date:

4. Discontinued and Disposed Operations

Discontinued Operations

On July 21, 2024, the Company signed a definitive agreement to sell its ESG business, which is part of the Company’s Engineered Products segment, to Terex Corporation for total consideration, net of cash transferred, of $2.0 billion, subject to post-closing adjustments. The ESG business was classified as held for sale as of September 30, 2024, and qualifies for discontinued operations reporting because its disposal represents a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results. As a result, the Company has classified the results of operations as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of earnings and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows and classified the assets and liabilities as held for sale in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented.

Summarized results of the Company's discontinued operations are as follows:

2024 Dispositions

On March 31, 2024, the Company completed the sale of the De-Sta-Co business, an operating company within the Engineered Products segment, for total consideration, net of cash transferred, of $674,727. Of the total consideration, $63,000 was received upon finalization of closing activities in India and China, which occurred during the second quarter. This sale resulted in a preliminary pre-tax gain on disposition of $529,201 ($414,372 after-tax) included within the condensed consolidated statements of earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The total consideration and pre-tax gain on disposition are preliminary and subject to standard post-closing adjustments. The sale did not meet the criteria to be classified as a discontinued operation, as it did not represent a strategic shift that would have a major effect on operations and financial results.

De-Sta-Co met the criteria to be classified as held for sale beginning September 30, 2023. For the period ended December 31, 2023, current assets and liabilities held for sale of $192,644 and $64,568, respectively, are presented in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

On September 30, 2024, a minority owned equity method investment held within the Climate & Sustainability Technologies segment was sold and the Company received its proportionate share of the proceeds amounting to $92,962. The sale resulted in a preliminary pre-tax gain of $68,712, subject to customary post-closing adjustments and included within the condensed consolidated statements of earnings for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

7. Credit Losses

The Company is exposed to credit losses primarily through sales of products and services. Due to the short-term nature of such receivables, the estimate of the amount of accounts receivable that may not be collected is based on the aging of the accounts receivable balances and other historical and forward-looking information on the financial condition of customers. Balances are written off when determined to be uncollectible.

(1) Carrying amount is net of unamortized debt discount and deferred debt issuance costs. Total unamortized debt discounts were $9.5 million and $10.9 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Total deferred debt issuance costs were $7.5 million and $8.9 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

The discounts are being amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the life of the issuances. The deferred issuance costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the debt, as this approximates the effective interest method.

On April 6, 2023, the Company entered into a $1.0 billion five-year unsecured revolving credit facility and on April 4, 2024, the Company entered into a new $500.0 million 364-day unsecured revolving credit facility (together, the "Credit Agreements") with a syndicate of banks. The current 364-day credit facility replaced the previous $500.0 million 364-day credit facility, which expired on April 4, 2024. The lenders' commitments under the Credit Agreements will terminate and any outstanding loans under the Credit Agreements will mature on April 6, 2028 and April 3, 2025, respectively. The Company may elect to extend the maturity date of any loans under the new 364-day credit facility until April 3, 2026, subject to conditions specified therein. The Credit Agreements are designated as a liquidity back-stop for the Company's commercial paper program and also are available for general corporate purposes. At the Company's election, loans under the Credit Agreements will bear interest at a base rate plus an applicable margin. The Credit Agreements require the Company to pay facility fees and impose various restrictions on the Company such as, among other things, a requirement to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio of consolidated EBITDA to consolidated net interest expense of not less than 3.0 to 1. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were no outstanding borrowings under the five-year, current or previous 364-day credit facilities.

The Company was in compliance with all covenants in the Credit Agreements and other long-term debt covenants at September 30, 2024 and had an interest coverage ratio of consolidated EBITDA to consolidated net interest expense of 20.7 to 1.

Letters of Credit and other Guarantees

As of September 30, 2024, the Company had approximately $160.0 million outstanding in letters of credit, surety bonds, and performance and other guarantees which primarily expire on various dates through 2035. These letters of credit and bonds are primarily issued as security for insurance, warranty and other performance obligations. In general, we would only be liable for the amount of these guarantees in the event of default in the performance of our obligations, the probability of which is believed to be remote.

11. Financial Instruments

Derivatives

The Company is exposed to market risk for changes in foreign currency exchange rates due to the global nature of its operations and certain commodity risks. In order to manage these risks, the Company has hedged portions of its forecasted sales and purchases which occur within the next twelve months that are denominated in non-functional currencies, with currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges. At September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had contracts with total notional amounts of $153,054 and $171,425, respectively, to exchange currencies, principally euro, pound sterling, Swedish krona, Canadian dollar, Chinese yuan, and Swiss franc. The Company believes it is probable that all forecasted cash flow transactions will occur.

In addition, the Company had outstanding contracts with a total notional amount of $91,892 and $84,867 as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, that are not designated as hedging instruments. These instruments are used to reduce the Company's exposure for operating receivables and payables that are denominated in non-functional currencies. Gains and losses on these contracts are recorded in other income, net in the condensed consolidated statements of earnings.

The following table sets forth the fair values of derivative instruments held by the Company as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and the balance sheet lines in which they are recorded:
Fair Value Asset (Liability)
September 30, 2024December 31, 2023Balance Sheet Caption
Foreign currency forward$1,188 $1,675 Prepaid and other current assets
Foreign currency forward(1,531)(874)Other accrued expenses

For a cash flow hedge, the change in estimated fair value of a hedging instrument is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive earnings (loss), net of tax as a separate component of the condensed consolidated statements of stockholders' equity and is reclassified into revenues or cost of goods and services in the condensed consolidated statements of earnings during the period in which the hedged transaction is settled. The amount of gains or losses from hedging activity recorded in earnings is not significant, and the amount of unrealized gains and losses from cash flow hedges that are expected to be reclassified to earnings in the next twelve months is not significant; therefore, additional tabular disclosures are not presented. There are no amounts excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness, and the Company's derivative instruments that are subject to credit risk contingent features were not significant.

The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to the financial instrument contracts held by the Company; however, nonperformance by these counterparties is considered unlikely as the Company’s policy is to contract with highly-rated, diversified counterparties.

The Company has designated the €600,000 and €500,000 of euro-denominated notes issued November 9, 2016 and November 4, 2019, respectively, as hedges of a portion of its net investment in euro-denominated operations. Changes in the value of the euro-denominated debt are recognized in foreign currency translation adjustments within other comprehensive earnings (loss) of the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive earnings to offset changes in the value of the net investment in euro-denominated operations. Changes in the value of the euro-denominated debt resulting from exchange rate differences are offset by changes in the net investment due to the high degree of effectiveness between the hedging instruments and the exposure being hedged.

Amounts recognized in other comprehensive earnings for the gains (losses) on net investment hedges were as follows:
Three Months Ended September 30,Nine Months Ended September 30,

Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires the Company to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value as follows:

Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 inputs include inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of assets or liabilities.

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

The following table presents the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:
September 30, 2024December 31, 2023
Level 2Level 2
Assets:
Foreign currency cash flow hedges$1,188 $1,675 
Liabilities:
Foreign currency cash flow hedges1,531 874 

The derivative contracts are measured at fair value using models based on observable market inputs such as foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates; therefore, they are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

In addition to fair value disclosure requirements related to financial instruments carried at fair value, accounting standards require disclosures regarding the fair value of all of the Company's financial instruments.

The estimated fair value of long-term debt at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, was $3,025,107 and $2,950,401, respectively. The estimated fair value of long-term debt is based on quoted market prices for similar instruments and is, therefore, classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, accounts payable and short-term borrowings approximate their fair values as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

12. Income Taxes

The effective tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 were 19.0% and 17.7%, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2024 relative to the prior year comparable period was primarily driven by a gain on disposition.

The effective tax rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 were 20.1% and 18.7%, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 relative to the prior year comparable period was primarily driven by gains on dispositions.

Dover and its subsidiaries file tax returns in the U.S., including various state and local returns, and in other foreign jurisdictions. We believe adequate provision has been made for all income tax uncertainties. The Company is routinely audited by taxing authorities in its filing jurisdictions, and a number of these audits are currently underway. The Company believes that within the next twelve months uncertain tax positions may be resolved and statutes of limitations will expire, which could result in a decrease in the gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $0 to $3,751.

13. Equity Incentive Program

The Company typically makes its annual grants of equity awards pursuant to actions taken by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors at its regularly scheduled first quarter meeting. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company issued stock-settled appreciation rights ("SARs") covering 345,354 shares, performance share awards ("PSAs") of 43,602 and restricted stock units ("RSUs") of 87,755. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company issued SARs covering 349,491 shares, PSAs of 43,656 and RSUs of 85,053.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of each SAR on the date of grant. Expected volatilities are based on Dover's stock price history, including implied volatilities from traded options on Dover stock. The Company uses historical data to estimate SAR exercise and employee termination patterns within the valuation model. The expected life of SARs granted is derived from the output of the option valuation model and represents the average period of time that SARs granted are expected to be outstanding. The interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the awards is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

The assumptions used in determining the fair value of the SARs awarded during the respective periods were as follows:
SARs
 20242023
Risk-free interest rate4.13 %3.91 %
Dividend yield1.28 %1.32 %
Expected life (years)5.55.4
Volatility31.32 %30.65 %
Grant price
$160.11$153.25
Fair value per share at date of grant
$51.17$47.27

The PSAs granted in 2024 vest based on the attainment of two equally weighted measures: (i) Dover’s performance relative to established internal metrics (performance condition) and (ii) Dover's performance relative to its peer group (companies listed under the S&P 500 Industrials sector; market condition).

The grant date fair value of the performance condition portion is determined using Dover’s closing stock price at the date of grant and the amount of expense recognized over the vesting period is subject to adjustment based on the expected attainment of the performance condition. The fair value per share at the date of grant for the 2024 performance condition portion is $177.19.

The grant date fair value of the 2024 market condition portion, and all 2023 PSAs, is determined using the Monte Carlo simulation model. The amount of expense recognized over the vesting period is not subject to change based on future market conditions. The assumptions used in the Monte Carlo model to determine the fair value of the PSAs granted in the respective periods were as follows:
PSAs
20242023
Risk-free interest rate4.37 %4.28 %
Dividend yield1.15 %1.32 %
Expected life (years)2.82.9
Volatility23.30 %27.30 %
Grant price$177.19$153.25
Fair value per share at date of grant$287.62$249.48

The performance and vesting periods for all 2024 and 2023 PSAs is three years.

The Company also has granted RSUs, and the fair value of these awards was determined using Dover's closing stock price on the date of grant, which was $160.11 and $153.25 for RSUs granted in 2024 and 2023, respectively.

These expenses are included within stock-based compensation expense in the condensed consolidated statements of stockholders' equity. See Note 4 — Discontinued and Disposed Operations for further details.

14. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

Litigation

A few of the Company’s subsidiaries are involved in legal proceedings relating to the cleanup of waste disposal sites identified under federal and state statutes which provide for the allocation of such costs among "potentially responsible parties." In each instance, the extent of the Company’s liability appears to be relatively insignificant in relation to the total projected expenditures and the number of other "potentially responsible parties" involved and is anticipated to be immaterial to the Company. In addition, a few of the Company’s subsidiaries are involved in ongoing remedial activities at certain current and former plant sites, in cooperation with regulatory agencies, and appropriate estimated liabilities have been established. At September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, these estimated liabilities for environmental and other matters, including private party claims for exposure to hazardous substances that are probable and estimable, were not significant.

The Company and some of its subsidiaries are also parties to a number of other legal proceedings incidental to their businesses. These proceedings primarily involve claims by private parties alleging injury arising out of use of the Company’s products, patent infringement, employment matters and commercial disputes. Management and legal counsel, at least quarterly, review the probable outcome of such proceedings, the costs and expenses reasonably expected to be incurred and currently accrued to-date and consider the availability and extent of insurance coverage. The Company has estimated liabilities for these other legal matters that are probable and estimable, and at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, these estimated liabilities were immaterial. While it is not possible at this time to predict the outcome of these legal actions, in the opinion of management, based on the aforementioned reviews, the Company is not currently involved in any legal proceedings which, individually or in the aggregate, could have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Warranty Accruals

Estimated warranty program claims are provided for at the time of sale of the Company's products. Amounts provided for are based on historical costs and adjusted for new claims and are included within other accrued expenses and other liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The changes in the carrying amount of product warranties through September 30, 2024 and 2023, were as follows:
 20242023
Balance at January 1$42,243 $43,056

17. Stockholders' Equity

Share Repurchases

In August 2023, the Company's Board of Directors approved a new standing share repurchase authorization whereby the Company may repurchase up to 20 million shares beginning on January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2026.

On February 29, 2024, the Company entered into a $500,000 accelerated share repurchase agreement (the "ASR Agreement") with Citibank, N.A. ("Citibank") to repurchase its shares in an accelerated share repurchase program (the "ASR Program"). The ASR Program is classified as equity, initially recorded at fair value with no subsequent remeasurement. The Company conducted the ASR Program under the current share repurchase authorization. The Company funded the ASR Program with proceeds from commercial paper.

Under the terms of the ASR Agreement, the Company paid Citibank $500,000 on March 1, 2024 and on that date received initial delivery of 2,569,839 shares, representing a substantial majority of the shares expected to be retired over the course of the ASR Agreement. In July 2024, Citibank delivered 299,443 additional shares which completed the ASR Program. During 2024, the Company received a total of 2,869,282 shares upon completion of the ASR Agreement. The total number of shares ultimately repurchased under the ASR Agreement was based on the volume-weighted average share price of Dover's common stock during the calculation period of the ASR Program, less a discount, which was $174.26 over the term of the ASR Program.

In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, exclusive of the ASR Program, there were no share repurchases. As of September 30, 2024, 17,130,718 shares remain authorized for repurchase under the August 2023 share repurchase authorization.

Weighted average shares outstanding138,223,000 140,615,000 138,830,000 140,603,000 

The following table is a reconciliation of the share amounts used in computing earnings per share:
 Three Months Ended September 30,Nine Months Ended September 30,
 2024202320242023
Weighted average shares outstanding - basic137,251,000 139,878,000 137,913,000 139,833,000 
Dilutive effect of assumed exercise of SARs and vesting of performance shares and RSUs972,000 737,000 917,000 770,000 
Weighted average shares outstanding - diluted138,223,000 140,615,000 138,830,000 140,603,000 

Diluted earnings per share amounts are computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of SARs and vesting of performance shares and RSUs, as determined using the treasury stock method.

The weighted average number of anti-dilutive potential common shares excluded from the calculation above were approximately 44,000 and 39,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and 63,000 and 54,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

19. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09 Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which expands the disclosures required in an entity’s income tax rate reconciliation table and requires disclosure of income taxes paid both in U.S. and foreign jurisdictions. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this ASU to determine its impact on the Company's disclosures.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendment requires disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, an amount and description of its composition for other segment items, and interim disclosures of a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this ASU to determine its impact on the Company's disclosures.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standard

In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-04 Liabilities-Supplier Finance Programs (Topic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations. The amendments in this update require a buyer in a supplier finance program to disclose information about the program's nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period, and potential magnitude. The Company adopted the guidance when it became effective on January 1, 2023, except for the rollforward requirement, which was adopted when it became effective January 1, 2024. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company facilitates the opportunity for suppliers to participate in a voluntary supply chain financing ("SCF") program with a third-party financial institution. Participating suppliers are paid directly by the SCF financial institution and, in addition, may elect to sell receivables due from the Company to the SCF financial institution for early payment. Thus, participating suppliers have additional potential flexibility in managing their liquidity by accelerating, at their option and cost, collection of receivables due from the Company.

The Company and its suppliers agree on commercial terms, including payment terms, for the goods and services the Company procures, regardless of whether the supplier participates in SCF. For participating suppliers, the Company’s responsibility is limited to making all payments to the SCF financial institution on the terms originally negotiated with the supplier, irrespective of whether the supplier elects to sell receivables to the SCF financial institution. The Company does not determine the terms or conditions of the arrangement between the SCF financial institution and the Company's suppliers. The SCF financial institution pays the supplier on the invoice due date for any invoices that were not previously sold by the supplier. The agreement between the Company and the SCF financial institution does not require the Company to provide assets pledged as security or other forms of guarantees.

Outstanding payments related to the SCF program are recorded within accounts payable in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of the September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 amounts due to the SCF financial institution were approximately $131,534 and $156,245, respectively.


20. Subsequent Events

On October 8, 2024, the Company completed the previously announced sale of the ESG business, an operating company within the Engineered Products segment, for total consideration, net of cash transferred, of $2.0 billion, subject to customary post-closing adjustments. The initial accounting for the disposition is incomplete as a result of the timing of the transaction. Accordingly, it is impracticable for us to disclose the estimated gain on disposition. See Note 4 — Discontinued and Disposed Operations for further details.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Refer to the section below entitled "Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" for a discussion of factors that could cause our actual results to differ from the forward-looking statements contained below and throughout this quarterly report.

Throughout this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A"), we refer to measures used by management to evaluate performance, including a number of financial measures that are not defined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). Please see "Non-GAAP Disclosures" at the end of this Item 2 for further detail on these financial measures. We believe these measures provide investors with important information that is useful in understanding our business results and trends. Reconciliations within this MD&A provide more details on the use and derivation of these measures.

OVERVIEW

Dover is a diversified global manufacturer and solutions provider delivering innovative equipment and components, consumable supplies, aftermarket parts, software and digital solutions, and support services through five operating segments: Engineered Products, Clean Energy & Fueling, Imaging & Identification, Pumps & Process Solutions, and Climate & Sustainability Technologies. The Company's entrepreneurial business model encourages, promotes and fosters deep customer engagement and collaboration, which has led to Dover's well-established and valued reputation for providing superior customer service and industry-leading product innovation. Unless the context indicates otherwise, references herein to "Dover," "the Company," and words such as "we," "us," or "our" include Dover Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Dover's five operating segments are as follows:

•Our Engineered Products segment provides a wide range of equipment, components, software, solutions and services to the vehicle aftermarket, aerospace and defense, industrial winch and hoist, and fluid dispensing end-markets.

•Our Clean Energy & Fueling segment provides components, equipment, software solutions and services enabling safe and reliable storage, transport and dispensing of traditional and clean fuels (including liquefied natural gas, hydrogen, and electric vehicle charging), cryogenic gases, and other hazardous substances along the supply chain, and safe and efficient operation of convenience retail, retail fueling and vehicle wash establishments.

•Our Imaging & Identification segment supplies precision marking and coding, product traceability, brand protection and digital textile printing equipment, as well as related consumables, software and services to the global packaged and consumer goods, pharmaceutical, industrial manufacturing, textile and other end-markets.

•Our Pumps & Process Solutions segment manufactures specialty pumps and flow meters, fluid transfer connectors, highly engineered precision components, instruments and digital controls for rotating and reciprocating machines, polymer processing equipment, serving single-use biopharmaceutical production, diversified industrial manufacturing applications, chemical production, plastics and polymer processing, midstream and downstream oil and gas, clean energy markets, thermal management, food and beverage, semiconductor production and medical applications and other end-markets.

•Our Climate & Sustainability Technologies segment is a provider of innovative and energy-efficient equipment, components and parts for the commercial refrigeration, heating and cooling and beverage can-making equipment end-markets.

In the third quarter of 2024, revenue was $2.0 billion, which increased $25.1 million, or 1.3%, as compared to the third quarter of 2023. This was driven by acquisition-related revenue growth of 3.8% and organic revenue growth of 0.3% , partially offset by disposition-related decline of 2.7% and an unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation of 0.1%. The results were driven by solid demand across most end markets and strategic pricing initiatives.

The 0.3% organic revenue growth for the third quarter of 2024 was driven by our Engineered Products, Imaging & Identification and Pumps & Process Solutions segments which grew 12.1%, 3.3%, and 1.9%, respectively. The growth was partially offset by the Climate & Sustainability Technologies and Clean Energy & Fueling segments which declined 9.4% and 1.2%, respectively. For further information, see "Segment Results of Operations" within this Item 2.

25
Table of Contents
From a geographic perspective, organic revenue for the U.S., our largest market, increased 8.4% in the third quarter of 2024 compared to the prior year comparable quarter, driven by broad-based growth across all segments. Organic revenue increased for Other Americas by 1.7%, and decreased for Asia and Europe by 9.5% and 4.6%, respectively.

Bookings were $1.9 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2024, an increase of $0.1 billion, or 5.6% compared to the prior year comparable quarter. Included in this result was organic growth of 5.1% and acquisition-related growth of 3.5%, partially offset by disposition-related decline of 2.9% and an unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation of 0.1%. The organic bookings growth was primarily driven by positive demand trends and order timing.

Restructuring and other costs for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were $16.6 million which included restructuring charges of $13.8 million and other costs of $2.7 million. Restructuring and other costs were generally related to exit costs and headcount reductions in the Clean Energy & Fueling segment. For further discussion related to our restructuring and other costs, see "Restructuring and Other Costs (Benefits)," within this Item 2.

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company completed four business acquisitions for approximately $460.5 million, subject to post-closing adjustments and inclusive of contingent consideration. See Note 3 — Acquisitions in the condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further details.

On September 30, 2024, a minority owned equity method investment held within the Climate & Sustainability Technologies segment was sold and the Company received its proportionate share of the proceeds amounting to $92,962 which resulted in a preliminary pre-tax gain of $68,712, subject to customary post-closing adjustments. See Note 4 — Discontinued and Disposed Operations in the condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further details.

On October 8, 2024, the Company completed the previously announced sale of the Environmental Solutions Group ("ESG") business, an operating company within the Engineered Products segment, for total consideration, net of cash transferred, of $2.0 billion, subject to customary post-closing adjustments. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the results of ESG are presented as discontinued operations as the sale represents a strategic shift in operations with a major impact on our operations and financial results. See Note 4 — Discontinued and Disposed Operations in the condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further details. The discussion in this MD&A, unless otherwise noted, relates solely to our continuing operations.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company received a total of 2,869,282 shares upon completion of the accelerated repurchase agreement (the ASR Agreement"). The total number of shares ultimately repurchased under the ASR Agreement was based on the volume-weighted average share price of Dover's common stock during the calculation period of the accelerated share repurchase program (the "ASR Program"), less a discount, which was $174.26 over the term of the ASR Program.

In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, exclusive of the ASR Program, there were no share repurchases. As of September 30, 2024, 17,130,718 shares remain authorized for repurchase under the August 2023 share repurchase authorization.

SEGMENT RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The summary that follows provides a discussion of the results of operations of each of our five reportable operating segments (Engineered Products, Clean Energy & Fueling, Imaging & Identification, Pumps & Process Solutions, and Climate & Sustainability Technologies). Each of these segments is comprised of various product and service offerings that serve multiple markets. We evaluate our operating segment performance based on segment earnings as defined in Note 16 — Segment Information in the condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

We report organic revenue growth, which excludes the impact of foreign currency exchange rates and the impact of acquisitions and divestitures. See "Non-GAAP Disclosures" at the end of this Item 2.

Additionally, we use the following operational metrics in monitoring the performance of the business. We believe the operational metrics are useful to investors and other users of our financial information in assessing the performance of our segments:

•Bookings represent total orders received from customers in the current reporting period and exclude de-bookings related to orders received in prior periods, if any. This metric is an important measure of performance and an indicator of order trends.

•Organic bookings represent bookings excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rates and the impact of acquisitions and dispositions. This metric is an important measure of performance and an indicator of revenue order trends.

•Book-to-bill is a ratio of the amount of bookings received from customers during a period divided by the amount of revenue recorded during that same period. This metric is a useful indicator of demand.

Restructuring and Other Costs (Benefits)

Restructuring and other costs are not presented in our segment earnings because these costs are excluded from the segment operating performance measure reviewed by management. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we incurred restructuring charges of $13.8 million and $41.6 million and other costs, net of $2.7 million and $10.5 million. Restructuring charges for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were primarily related to exit costs and headcount reductions in the Clean Energy & Fueling segment. Restructuring charges for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 were primarily related to product line exit costs and headcount reductions in the Clean Energy & Fueling, and the Climate & Sustainability Technologies segments. These restructuring programs were initiated in 2023 and 2024 and the Company will continue to make proactive adjustments to its cost structure to align with current demand trends. Other costs, net of $10.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, were primarily due to non-cash asset impairment charges and reorganization costs in the Climate & Sustainability Technologies and Imaging & Identification segments, respectively. These restructuring and other charges were recorded in cost of goods and services and selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of earnings. Additional programs beyond the scope of the announced programs may be implemented during 2024 with related restructuring charges.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate cash to fund our operating, investing and financing activities. Significant factors affecting liquidity are cash flows generated from operating activities, capital expenditures, acquisitions, dispositions, dividends, repurchase of outstanding shares, adequacy of available commercial paper and bank lines of credit and the ability to attract long-term capital with satisfactory terms. We generate substantial cash from the operations of our businesses and remain in a strong financial position, with sufficient liquidity available for reinvestment in existing businesses and strategic acquisitions.

Cash Flow Summary

The following table is derived from our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows:
Nine Months Ended September 30,
Cash Flows from Operations (in thousands)
20242023
Net cash flows provided by (used in):  
Operating activities$648,881 $720,982 
Investing activities63,119 (131,072)
Financing activities(818,445)(757,205)

Operating Activities

Cash flow from operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 decreased by $72.1 million compared to September 30, 2023, primarily due to tax payments related to the gain from the De-Sta-Co divestiture.

Adjusted Working Capital: We believe adjusted working capital (a non-GAAP measure calculated as receivables, plus inventory, less accounts payable) provides a meaningful measure of liquidity by showing changes caused by operational results. The following table provides a calculation of adjusted working capital:

Adjusted Working Capital (in thousands)
September 30, 2024December 31, 2023
Receivables, net
$1,428,961 $1,321,107 
Inventories, net
1,214,268 1,144,089 
Less: Accounts payable865,188 854,465 
Adjusted working capital$1,778,041 $1,610,731 

Adjusted working capital increased by $167.3 million, or 10.4%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2024, which reflected an increase of $107.9 million in receivables, net, an increase of $70.2 million in inventory, net and an increase in accounts payable of $10.7 million. These amounts include the effects of acquisitions, dispositions and foreign currency translation. The increase in adjusted working capital versus year-end 2023 is primarily a result of timing of cash flows, with the fourth quarter traditionally representing our highest cash flow quarter.

Investing Activities

Cash flow from investing activities is derived from cash inflows from proceeds from dispositions, offset by cash outflows for acquisitions and capital expenditures. The majority of the activity in investing activities was comprised of the following:

•Proceeds from dispositions: During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we received net proceeds of $767.7 million from the sales of De-Sta-Co, an operating company within the Engineered Products segment, and a minority owned equity method investment within Climate & Sustainability Technologies segment. There were no proceeds from disposition during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. See Note 4 — Discontinued and Disposed Operations in the condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further details.

•Acquisitions: During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we deployed approximately $602.7 million, net, to acquire seven businesses. In comparison, during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we deployed approximately $7.2 million, net to acquire one business. See Note 3 — Acquisitions in the condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further details.

Table of Contents

•Capital spending: Capital expenditures decreased $12.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023, in line with our planned capital expenditures for the year.

We anticipate that capital expenditures and any additional acquisitions we make through the remainder of 2024 will be funded from available cash and internally generated funds and, if necessary, through the issuance of commercial paper, or by accessing the public debt or equity markets. We estimate capital expenditures in 2024 to range from $145.0 million to $155.0 million.

Financing Activities

Cash flow from financing activities generally relates to the use of cash for purchases of our common stock and payment of dividends, offset by net borrowing activity. The majority of financing activity was attributed to the following:

•Repurchase of common stock, including accelerated share repurchase program: During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company received a total of 2,869,282 shares upon completion the ASR Agreement for $500.0 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we repurchased no shares. See Note 17 — Stockholders' Equity in the condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further details.

•Commercial paper and other short-term borrowings, net: During the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, we used $89.0 million and $528.8 million, respectively, to pay off commercial paper borrowings.

•Dividend payments: Total dividend payments to common shareholders were $212.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to $212.9 million during the same period in 2023. Our dividends paid per common share increased 1.0% to $1.54 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $1.52 during the same period in 2023. The number of common shares outstanding decreased from September 30, 2023 to September 30, 2024, as share repurchases exceeded share issuances.

Cash Flows from Discontinued Operations

Our cash flows from discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, generated $93.9 million and $93.8 million, respectively, representing the operating results of ESG during the periods presented. Cash flows from discontinued operations generated for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, primarily relate to cash provided by operations of approximately $108.3 million, partially offset by cash used in investing activities of $14.4 million, which comprised capital expenditures partially offset by proceeds from a sale of investment. Cash flows generated for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily relate to cash provided by operating activities of $99.3 million, partially offset by capital expenditures of $5.5 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Free Cash Flow

In addition to measuring our cash flow generation and usage based upon the operating, investing and financing classifications included in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, we also measure free cash flow (a non-GAAP measure) which represents net cash provided by operating activities minus capital expenditures. We believe that free cash flow is an important measure of liquidity because it provides management and investors a measurement of cash generated from operations that may be available for mandatory payment obligations and investment opportunities, such as funding acquisitions, paying dividends, repaying debt and repurchasing our common stock.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we generated free cash flow of $535.3 million, representing 9.2% of revenue and 46.1% of earnings from continuing operations. Free cash flow for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, decreased $59.6 million, compared to September 30, 2023, primarily due to tax payments on the De-Sta-Co gain of $80.0 million, partially offset by lower capital expenditures. The remainder of the tax payments on the De-Sta-Co gain will be paid in the fourth quarter of 2024. The decreases in cash flow from operating activities and free cash flow as percentages of earnings from continuing operations are due primarily to the gain on sale of De-Sta-Co. See Note 4 — Discontinued and Disposed Operations in the condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further details.

Capitalization

We use commercial paper borrowings for general corporate purposes, including the funding of acquisitions and the repurchase of our common stock. As of September 30, 2024, we maintained $1.0 billion five-year and $500.0 million 364-day unsecured revolving credit facilities (together, the "Credit Agreements") with a syndicate of banks which expire April 6, 2028 and April 3, 2025, respectively. The Credit Agreements are designated as a liquidity back-stop for the Company's commercial paper program and also are available for general corporate purposes.

At the Company's election, loans under the Credit Agreements will bear interest at a base rate plus an applicable margin. The Credit Agreements require the Company to pay facility fees and impose various restrictions on the Company such as, among other things, a requirement to maintain an interest coverage ratio of consolidated EBITDA to consolidated net interest expense of not less than 3.0 to 1.0. The Company was in compliance with all covenants in the Credit Agreements and other long-term debt covenants at September 30, 2024 and had an interest coverage ratio of consolidated EBITDA to consolidated net interest expense of 20.7 to 1. We are not aware of any potential impairment to our liquidity and expect to remain in compliance with all of our debt covenants. Additionally, our earliest long-term debt maturity is in 2025.

We also have a current shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission that allows for the issuance of additional debt securities that may be utilized in one or more offerings on terms to be determined at the time of the offering. Net proceeds of any offering would be used for general corporate purposes, including repayment of existing indebtedness, capital expenditures and acquisitions.

At September 30, 2024, our cash and cash equivalents, including cash held for sale, totaled $396.8 million, of which approximately $251.9 million was held outside the United States. At December 31, 2023, our cash and cash equivalents, including cash held for sale, totaled $415.9 million, of which approximately $286.9 million was held outside the United States. Cash and cash equivalents are held primarily in bank deposits with highly rated banks. We regularly hold cash in excess of near-term requirements in bank deposits or invest the funds in government money market instruments or short-term investments, which consist of investment grade time deposits with original maturity dates at the time of purchase of no greater than three months.

On March 31, 2024, the Company completed the sale of the De-Sta-Co business for total consideration, net of cash transferred, of $674.7 million. On September 30, 2024, a minority owned equity method investment held within the Climate & Sustainability Technologies segment was sold and the Company received its proportionate share of the proceeds amounting to $93.0 million. On October 8, the Company completed the previously announced sale of the ESG business, an operating company in the Engineered Products segment, for total consideration, net of cash transferred, of $2.0 billion, subject to

customary post-closing adjustments. See Note 4 — Discontinued and Disposed Operations in the condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further details.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company completed seven business acquisitions for total consideration of $636.4 million, subject to post-closing adjustments and inclusive of contingent consideration. See Note 3 — Acquisitions in the condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further details.

We utilize the net debt to net capitalization calculation (a non-GAAP measure) to assess our overall financial leverage and capacity and believe the calculation is useful to investors for the same reason. Net debt represents total debt minus cash and cash equivalents, including cash held for sale. Net capitalization represents net debt plus stockholders' equity. The following table provides a calculation of net debt to net capitalization from the most directly comparable GAAP measures:

Net Debt to Net Capitalization Ratio

Net capitalization$8,688,348 $8,150,785 
Net debt to net capitalization34.4 %37.3 %

Our net debt to net capitalization ratio decreased to 34.4% at September 30, 2024 compared to 37.3% at December 31, 2023. Net debt decreased $53.8 million during the period primarily due to net proceeds from the sale of De-Sta-Co that were used to reduce our commercial paper borrowings. Stockholders' equity increased for the period as a result of current earnings of $1,261.1 million, partially offset by share repurchases under the ASR program and dividends paid during the period.

Operating cash flow and access to capital markets are expected to satisfy our various cash flow requirements, including acquisitions, capital expenditures, purchase obligations, and lease obligations. Acquisition spending and/or share repurchases could potentially increase our debt.

We believe that existing sources of liquidity are adequate to meet anticipated funding needs at current risk-based interest rates for the foreseeable future.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our condensed consolidated financial statements and related public financial information are based on the application of GAAP which requires the use of estimates, assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenue and expense amounts reported. These estimates can also affect supplemental information contained in our public disclosures, including information regarding contingencies, risk and our financial condition. We believe our use of estimates and underlying accounting assumptions conform to GAAP and are consistently applied. We review valuations based on estimates for reasonableness on a consistent basis.

Recent Accounting Standards

See Note 19 — Recent Accounting Pronouncements in the condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q. The adoption of recent accounting standards as included in Note 19 — Recent Accounting Pronouncements in the condensed consolidated financial statements has not had, and is not expected to have, a significant impact on our revenue, earnings or liquidity.

Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, especially MD&A, contains "forward-looking" statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended. All statements in this document other than statements of historical fact are statements that are, or could be deemed, "forward-looking" statements. Some of these statements may be indicated by words such as "may", "anticipate", "expect", "believe", "intend", "continue", "guidance", "estimates", "suggest", "will", "plan", "should", "would", "could", "forecast" and other words and terms that use the future tense or have a similar meaning. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and are subject to numerous important risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, including those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, among other things: general economic conditions and conditions in the particular markets in which we operate; supply chain constraints and labor shortages that could result in production stoppages, inflation in material input costs and freight logistics; the impacts of natural or human induced disasters, acts of war, terrorism, international conflicts, and public health crises or other future pandemics on the global economy and on our customers, suppliers, employees, business and cash flows; changes in customer demand and capital spending; competitive factors and pricing pressures; our ability to develop and launch new products in a cost-effective manner; changes in law, including the effect of tax laws and developments with respect to trade policy and tariffs; our ability to identify and complete acquisitions and integrate and realize synergies from newly acquired businesses; the impact of interest rate and currency exchange rate fluctuations; capital allocation plans and changes in those plans, including with respect to dividends, share repurchases, investments in research and development, capital expenditures and acquisitions; our ability to derive expected benefits from restructurings, productivity initiatives and other cost reduction actions; the impact of legal compliance risks and litigation, including with respect to product quality and safety, cybersecurity and privacy; and our ability to capture and protect intellectual property rights, and various other factors that are described in our periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. Given these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.

The Company may, from time to time, post financial or other information on its website, www.dovercorporation.com. The website is for informational purposes only and is not intended for use as a hyperlink. The Company is not incorporating any material on its website into this report.

Non-GAAP Disclosures

In an effort to provide investors with additional information regarding our results as determined by GAAP, we also disclose non-GAAP information, which we believe provides useful information to investors. Free cash flow, free cash flow as a percentage of revenue, free cash flow as a percentage of earnings from continuing operations, net debt, net capitalization, net debt to net capitalization ratio, adjusted working capital, and organic revenue growth are not financial measures under GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for cash flows from operating activities, debt or equity, working capital or revenue as determined in accordance with GAAP, and they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. We believe the net debt to net capitalization ratio and free cash flow are important measures of liquidity. Net debt to net capitalization is helpful in evaluating our capital structure and the amount of leverage we employ. Free cash flow and free cash flow ratios provide both management and investors a measurement of cash generated from operations that is available to fund acquisitions, pay dividends, repay debt and repurchase our common stock. Free cash flow as a percentage of revenue equals free cash flow divided by revenue. Free cash flow as a percentage of earnings from continuing operations equals free cash flow divided by earnings from continuing operations. We believe that reporting adjusted working capital provides a meaningful measure of liquidity by showing changes caused by operational results. We believe that reporting organic revenue growth provides a useful comparison of our revenue performance and trends between periods.

Reconciliations and comparisons to non-GAAP measures can be found above in this Item 2, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There has been no significant change in our exposure to market risk during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
