Item 2.02    Results of Operations and Financial Condition

On February 3, 2026, Illinois Tool Works Inc. (the "Company") announced its 2025 fourth quarter results of operations in the press release furnished as Exhibit 99.1.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses free cash flow to measure cash flow generated by operations that is available for dividends, share repurchases, acquisitions and debt repayment. The Company believes this non-GAAP financial measure, along with free cash flow to net income conversion rate, is useful to investors in evaluating the Company's financial performance and measures the Company's ability to generate cash internally to fund Company initiatives. Free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities less additions to plant and equipment. Free cash flow is a measurement that is not the same as net cash flow from operating activities per the statement of cash flows and may not be consistent with similarly titled measures used by other companies. A reconciliation of free cash flow to net cash provided by operating activities is included in the press release furnished as Exhibit 99.1.

The Company uses after-tax return on average invested capital ("After-tax ROIC") to measure the effectiveness of its operations' use of invested capital to generate profits. After-tax ROIC is not defined under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). After-tax ROIC is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Company believes is a meaningful metric to investors in evaluating the Company's ability to generate returns from cash invested in its operations and may be different than the method used by other companies to calculate After-tax ROIC. The Company defines After-tax ROIC as operating income after taxes divided by average invested capital, which is annualized when presented in interim periods. Operating income after taxes is a non-GAAP measure consisting of net income before interest expense and other income (expense), on an after-tax basis, which are excluded as they do not represent returns generated by the Company's operations. For comparability, the Company also excluded the net discrete tax benefit of $27 million in the third quarter of 2025 and the discrete tax benefit of $21 million in the first quarter of 2025 from net income and the effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2025. Additionally, for comparability, the Company also excluded the net discrete tax benefit of $121 million in the third quarter of 2024 from net income and the effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2024. Total invested capital represents the net assets of the Company, other than cash and equivalents and outstanding debt which do not represent capital investment in the Company's operations. The most comparable GAAP measure to operating income after taxes is net income. Calculations of net income to average invested capital and After-tax ROIC are included in the press release furnished as Exhibit 99.1.

The Company presented diluted net income per share for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 excluding the cumulative effect of a change in inventory accounting method and the impact of the sale of the Company's noncontrolling interest in Wilsonart International Holdings LLC. The Company believes this non-GAAP measure enhances investors' understanding of the Company's underlying financial performance and improves comparability with other periods. A reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to diluted net income per share is included in the press release furnished as Exhibit 99.1.

GLENVIEW, IL., February 3, 2026 - Illinois Tool Works Inc. (NYSE: ITW) today reported its fourth quarter and full year 2025 results.

“ITW delivered a solid finish to the year, marked by more than four percent revenue growth and a seven percent increase in GAAP earnings per share. As a result of our disciplined execution across all seven segments, we expanded both operating margin and income to record levels in the quarter,” said Christopher O’Herlihy, President and Chief Executive Officer.

“Our results over the past year demonstrate that ITW is well-positioned to deliver solid financial performance in any environment as we consistently exceeded market growth while improving profitability and margins. Notably, our Customer-Back Innovation initiatives were a primary catalyst, contributing 2.4 percent to revenue growth in 2025. Building on this momentum, we expect to continue outperforming our end markets in 2026 as we leverage ITW’s unique business model to drive consistent, above-market organic growth with best-in-class margins and returns. I extend my sincere gratitude to our global colleagues for their unwavering dedication to serving our customers and executing our strategy with excellence,” O’Herlihy concluded.

Fourth Quarter 2025 Results
Fourth quarter revenue of $4.1 billion increased by 4.1 percent and organic revenue growth was 1.3 percent. Foreign currency translation increased revenue by 2.5 percent and acquisitions added 0.3 percent.

GAAP EPS of $2.72 increased seven percent. Operating margin of 26.5 percent increased 30 basis points as enterprise initiatives contributed 140 basis points. Segment operating margin increased 120 basis points to 27.7 percent. Operating cash flow was $1 billion, and free cash flow was $0.9 billion with a conversion of 109 percent to net income. During the quarter, the company repurchased $375 million of its own shares and the effective tax rate was 22.8 percent.

Full Year 2025 Results
Full year revenue of $16 billion increased 0.9 percent as organic revenue was flat. Foreign currency translation increased revenue by 0.8 percent and acquisitions contributed 0.1 percent to revenues.

GAAP EPS of $10.49 exceeded the prior guidance mid-point of $10.45. Operating income was $4.2 billion and operating margin was 26.3 percent with enterprise initiatives contributing 130 basis points. Segment operating margin of 27.2 percent increased 70 basis points. Pricing and supply chain actions successfully offset the tariff impact for the year. Six of seven segments expanded operating margins with three segments achieving operating margins above 30 percent.

Operating cash flow was $3.1 billion and free cash flow was $2.7 billion, with a conversion of 88 percent to net income. The company invested approximately $0.8 billion to support the long-term growth of its highly profitable businesses and returned $3.3 billion to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases. The effective tax rate was 22.7 percent.




2026 Guidance
ITW is initiating 2026 guidance including GAAP EPS in the range of $11.00 to $11.40 per share, which represents seven percent earnings growth at the mid-point. The company projects revenue growth of two to four percent and organic growth of one to three percent based on current levels of demand and present foreign exchange rates.

Operating margin is projected to be in the range of 26.5 to 27.5 percent, an improvement of approximately 100 basis points with enterprise initiatives contributing 100 basis points.

All seven segments are expected to deliver positive organic growth and operating margin expansion in 2026.

Free cash flow is projected to be greater than 100 percent of net income, and the company plans to repurchase approximately $1.5 billion of its own shares. The projected effective tax rate is 23.5 to 24.5 percent.

Non-GAAP Measures
This earnings release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is included in the attached supplemental reconciliation schedule. The estimated guidance of free cash flow to net income conversion rate is based on assumptions that are difficult to predict, and estimated guidance for the most directly comparable GAAP measure and a reconciliation of this forward-looking estimate to its most directly comparable GAAP estimate have been omitted due to the unreasonable efforts required in connection with such a reconciliation and the lack of reliable forward-looking cash flow information. For the same reasons, the company is unable to address the potential significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results.

Forward-Looking Statements
This earnings release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements may include, without limitation, statements regarding the potential impact of tariffs, the Company’s projected pricing actions, the impact of enterprise initiatives, future financial and operating performance, free cash flow and free cash flow to net income conversion rate, organic and total revenue, operating and incremental margin, price/cost impact, statements regarding diluted earnings per share, after-tax return on invested capital, effective tax rates, exchange rates, expected timing and amount of share repurchases, end market economic and regulatory conditions, and the Company’s 2026 guidance. These statements are subject to certain risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and other factors, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated. Important risks that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company’s expectations include those that are detailed in ITW’s Form 10-K for 2024 and subsequent reports filed with the SEC.
