JBT MAREL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Description of Business
JBT Marel Corporation and its majority-owned consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company,” “JBT Marel,” “our,” “us,” or “we”) provide global technology solutions to high-value segments of the food and beverage industry. The Company designs, produces and services sophisticated products and systems for multi-national and regional customers. The Company has manufacturing operations worldwide that are strategically located to facilitate delivery of its products and services to its customers.
Basis of Presentation
In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules for interim periods, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (the “interim financial statements”) do not include all of the information and notes for complete financial statements as required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). As such, the accompanying interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, which provides a more complete description of the Company’s accounting policies, financial position, operating results, business, properties, and other matters. The year-end Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all annual disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. Certain prior‑period amounts for the three months ended March 31, 2025 have been reclassified to conform to the presentation adopted for the three months ended March 31, 2026. These reclassifications had no impact on previously reported results of operations or financial position.
In the opinion of management, the interim financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the Company's financial condition and operating results as of and for the periods presented. Revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities can vary during each quarter of the year. Therefore, the interim results and trends in the interim financial statements may not be representative of those for the full year or any future period.
Business Segments
In the fourth quarter of 2025, we realigned our reportable segments to better reflect the integration of our new operating model. We now operate through two reportable segments: Protein Solutions and Prepared Food and Beverage Solutions.
The Protein Solutions segment includes businesses that provide solutions for initial stage processing and harvesting of animal proteins, primarily focusing on poultry, pork, fish, and beef. Examples of core technologies include primary processing systems, cut-up, bone detection and removal, portioning, and robotic batching.
The Prepared Food and Beverage Solutions segment includes businesses that offer solutions predominantly for downstream value-added preparation, preservation, and packaging of foods and beverages into ready to eat or drink products. This segment also includes solutions that are often end-market agnostic, spanning protein, beverages, fruit & vegetables, pet food, ready meals, pharmaceuticals and neutraceuticals, and warehouse automation.
For further segment information, see below Note 14. Business Segment Information. and Item 2: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Strategic Acquisition of Marel hf.
On January 2, 2025, we completed the acquisition of Marel hf. (“Marel”), subsequently renamed JBT Marel ehf. (such acquisition, the “Marel Transaction”). The purpose of the Marel Transaction was to create a leading and diversified global food and beverage technology solutions provider by bringing together two renowned companies with long histories, complementary product portfolios, highly respected brands, and cutting-edge technology to enable global customers to more efficiently access industry leading technology worldwide. For further information on the Marel Transaction, see below Note 2. Acquisitions.
In conjunction with the Marel Transaction, JBT changed its corporate name and stock ticker symbol to “JBT Marel Corporation” and “JBTM,” respectively, on January 2, 2025. Shares of JBTM remain listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) with a secondary listing on Nasdaq Iceland.
Shares of JBTM commenced trading on both NYSE and Nasdaq Iceland on January 3, 2025.
Revision of Previously Issued Financial Statements
During 2025, the Company identified and corrected certain errors relating to the presentation of its Statements of Cash Flows specific to financing activities. The Company improperly reported revolving credit facility cash activity on a net basis, resulting in an understatement of gross repayments and borrowings for the revolving credit facility for the period ending March 31, 2025 as detailed below. Additionally, the Company improperly reported the current portion of the proceeds from Term Loan B as proceeds from the revolving credit facility, understating the proceeds from Term Loan B, net of debt issuance costs, for the period ending March 31, 2025, by the amounts noted below.

Use of Estimates
Preparation of financial statements that follow U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) (“ASU 2025-05”), which provides a practical expedient to measure credit losses on current accounts receivable and current contract assets. The practical expedient allows companies to assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset when measuring credit losses. The Company adopted ASU 2025-05 during the quarter ended March 31, 2026. The impact of the adoption was not material to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”), that requires disclosures of disaggregated information about certain income statement expense line items on an annual and interim basis. This standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, with early adoption permitted, and will be applied prospectively, with the option to apply retrospectively. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting this standard and currently expects ASU 2024-03 to impact its disclosures only.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40) (“ASU 2025-06”). The amendment modernizes the recognition and disclosure framework for internal-use software costs, removing the previous “development stage” model and introduces a more judgment-based approach. ASU 2025-06 will be effective for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2028, and for interim periods beginning in that fiscal year, with early adoption permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year. The standard may be applied prospectively, retrospectively, or through a modified prospective transition method. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adopting this standard.
NOTE 2. ACQUISITIONS
On January 2, 2025, the Company acquired 97.5% of the equity interests of Marel hf. (“Marel”), a public limited liability company incorporated under the laws of Iceland, for $4,182 million, which is net of cash acquired of $90 million (the “Marel Transaction”). On February 4, 2025, the Company acquired the remaining 2.5% of Marel’s equity interests that were not acquired through the Marel Transaction, for approximately $89 million. The total purchase consideration of the acquisition of the non-controlling interest of Marel was comprised of approximately $64 million in equity consideration and $24 million in cash consideration. This transaction was accounted for as an equity transaction and was reflected within financing activities within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Marel is a global provider of advanced processing equipment, systems, software and services, primarily for the poultry, meat, and fish industries, as well as a provider of processing solutions for pet food, plant-based proteins and aqua feed, with a presence in over 30 countries. The purpose of the acquisition of Marel was to create a leading and diversified global food and beverage technology solutions provider by bringing together two renowned companies with complementary product portfolios, highly respected brands, and cutting-edge technology to enable global customers to more efficiently access industry leading technology worldwide.
As part of the Marel Transaction, the Company settled Marel's outstanding debt of $868 million. In addition, the Company amended its existing credit facility in conjunction with the acquisition. The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement provides for a $1.8 billion revolving credit facility, which matures on January 2, 2030, and a $900 million Senior Secured Term Loan B, which matures on January 2, 2032. The proceeds from these facilities were used to fund the cash consideration for the acquisition and to settle the outstanding debt of Marel at the acquisition date.
The consideration transferred to Marel shareholders on the acquisition date consisted of the following:

This acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination. Tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their respective estimated fair values. The excess consideration over the estimated fair value of the net assets received has been recorded as goodwill. The factors that contributed to the recognition of goodwill primarily relate to acquisition-driven anticipated cost savings and revenue enhancement synergies coupled with the assembled workforce acquired. Assembled workforce is not recognized separate and apart from goodwill as it is neither separable nor contractual in nature. Goodwill created as a result of the Marel acquisition is not deductible for tax purposes.
The acquisition of Marel provided revenue of $445 million and operating income of $1 million for the period from the acquisition date through March 31, 2025.
Acquisition-related transaction costs totaling $64 million were recorded as Selling, general and administrative expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income during the three months ended March 31, 2025.
The allocation of the purchase price presented below is based on the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed using valuation techniques including the income, market, and cost approaches. In the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company completed its valuation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and aligned certain accounting policies, including the accounting for research and development expenses. The purchase accounting for the Marel acquisition was final as of December 31, 2025.
The following table summarizes the fair values recorded for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed for Marel:

(1) In the measurement period, the Company recorded measurement period adjustments to the purchase price allocation as it obtained information and completed its valuation of certain assets and liabilities. The impact of these adjustments was reflected as a net increase in goodwill.
(2) The Company acquired 97.5% of the equity interests of Marel and recognized a non-controlling interest in Marel on the acquisition date. The non-controlling interest was recognized at fair value, which was estimated based upon the trading price of the Company’s common stock on the acquisition date and the types of consideration that non-controlling interest holders were eligible to receive. The Company subsequently acquired the remaining 2.5% of Marel’s equity interests, as described above.
The acquired intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The intangible assets acquired have estimated useful lives of 16 years for customer relationships, 21 years for acquired technology, and 26 years for trademarks.

NOTE 5. PENSION
Termination of U.S. qualified defined benefit pension plan
During 2024, the Company obtained approval from its Board of Directors to settle all outstanding obligations of the U.S. qualified defined benefit pension plan (the “Plan”), through a combination of voluntary lump sum payments and the purchase of an annuity contract. On February 4, 2025, the Company completed the termination of the Plan via the purchase of an annuity contract for $179 million, funded entirely by the Plan assets. No additional cash contribution was required to settle the Company's outstanding obligations and terminate the Plan. Upon the termination, the Company recognized a pre-tax settlement charge of $147 million in Pension expense, other than service cost to recognize the remaining pre-tax accumulated other comprehensive loss related to the Plan.

Five-year Revolving Credit Facility
On January 2, 2025, the Company executed the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Second A&R Credit Agreement”), which provides for a $1.8 billion revolving credit facility that matures on January 2, 2030.
The revolving loans bear interest, at the Company’s option, at (1) the applicable borrowing rate (i.e. SOFR or EURIBOR) (subject to a floor rate of zero), or (2) an alternate base rate (which is the greater of Wells Fargo’s Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5%, or SOFR (subject to a floor rate of zero) plus 1.0%), plus, in each case, a margin dependent on the leverage ratio.
The Company's credit facility includes restrictive covenants that, if not met, could lead to renegotiation of its credit facility, a requirement to repay its borrowings, and/or a significant increase in its cost of financing. Restrictive covenants include a minimum interest coverage ratio, a maximum leverage ratio, as well as certain events of default. As of March 31, 2026, the Company was in compliance with its restrictive covenants.
Senior Secured Term Loan B
On January 2, 2025, the Company entered into a $900 million Senior Secured Term Loan B under the Second A&R Credit Agreement (the “Term Loan B”), which matures on January 2, 2032. The Company is required to make quarterly principal repayments equal to 0.25% of the initial Term Loan B.
Borrowings under the Term Loan B bear interest at the greater of (1) SOFR (subject to a floor rate of zero) or (2) a floor of 0%, plus an applicable margin of 1.75%.
The Notes
On September 9, 2025, the Company closed a private offering of $575 million aggregate principal amount of the 2030 Notes to qualified institutional buyers. Interest on the 2030 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year at a rate of 0.375% per year. The 2030 Notes will mature on September 15, 2030, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. The initial conversion rate of the 2030 Notes is 5.3258 shares of the Company’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $187.77 per share. This conversion rate is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events.
On May 28, 2021, the Company closed a private offering of $403 million aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes to qualified institutional buyers. Interest on the 2026 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year at a rate of 0.25% per year. The 2026 Notes will mature in the second quarter of 2026 and the Company expects to satisfy the outstanding principal amount of these Notes through a cash repayment at maturity, utilizing cash on hand or available under our credit facility. The initial conversion rate of the 2026 Notes is 5.8958 shares of the Company's common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $169.61 per share. This conversion rate is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events.
Hedge Transactions
In connection with the issuance of the 2030 Notes and the issuance of the 2026 Notes, the Company entered into certain hedge transactions (collectively, the “Hedge Transactions”). The Hedge Transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilutive effect of the conversion of each series of Notes and/or offset any cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of each series of converted Notes, subject to customary adjustments.
The Company paid an aggregate amount of approximately $106 million and $66 million, respectively, for the related Hedge Transactions for the 2030 Notes and the 2026 Notes. The Hedge Transactions cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments, approximately 3.1 million and 2.4 million shares, respectively, of the Company’s common stock with respect to the 2030 Notes and the 2026 Notes. These are the same numbers of shares initially underlying the 2030 Notes and the 2026 Notes at strike prices of $187.77 and $169.61, respectively, subject to customary adjustments. The Hedge Transactions will expire upon the maturity of the applicable series of Notes unless earlier exercised or terminated.
The Hedge Transactions meet the criteria in ASC 815-40 to be classified within Stockholders’ Equity, and therefore are not revalued after issuance.
The Company has made tax elections to integrate the applicable series of Notes and the related Hedge Transactions, which results in the Hedge Transactions being deductible as original issue discount interest for tax purposes over the term of the applicable series of Notes, with the associated deferred tax assets recorded as adjustments to Additional paid-in capital.
Warrant Transactions
In connections with each of the Hedge Transactions, the Company also entered into certain warrant transactions (collectively, the “Warrant Transactions”). The Warrant Transactions relate to warrants to acquire subject to anti-dilution adjustments, approximately 3.1 million and 2.4 million shares of the Company’s common stock with respect to the 2030 Notes and the 2026 Notes, at initial strike prices of approximately $283.42 per share and $240.02 per share, respectively. The Company received aggregate proceeds of $51 million and $30 million, respectively, from the related Warrant Transactions for the 2030 Notes and the 2026 Notes, with such proceeds partially offsetting the costs of entering into the related Hedge Transactions. The 2030 warrants expire in September 2030 and the 2026 warrants expire in August 2026.
If the market value per share of the common stock exceeds the strike price of the warrants, the warrants will have a dilutive effect on our earnings per share, unless the Company elects, subject to certain conditions, to settle the warrants in cash. The warrants meet the criteria in ASC 815-40 to be classified within Stockholders’ Equity, and therefore the warrants are not revalued after issuance.
NOTE 7. ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)
Accumulated other comprehensive income or loss (“AOCI”) represents the cumulative balance of other comprehensive income, net of tax, as of the balance sheet date. For the Company, AOCI is composed of adjustments related to pension and other postretirement benefit plans, derivatives designated as hedges, and foreign currency translation adjustments. Changes in the AOCI balances for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 by component are shown in the following tables:

NOTE 8. REVENUE RECOGNITION
Transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations
The Company has estimated that $1.5 billion in revenue is expected to be recognized in future periods related to remaining performance obligations from the Company's contracts with customers outstanding as of March 31, 2026. The Company expects to complete these obligations and recognize revenue in the range of 70% to 80% during 2026, 20% to 30% during 2027, and the remainder after 2027.
Disaggregation of Revenue

(1) Recurring revenue includes revenue from aftermarket parts and services, re-build services on customer owned equipment, operating leases of equipment, and subscription-based software applications. Non-recurring revenue includes new equipment and installation and the sale of software licenses.
(2) Geographical region represents the region in which the end customer resides.
(3) Segment revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were recast to reflect the Company’s realignment of its reportable segments, effective in the fourth quarter of 2025.
Contract balances
The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in trade receivables, contract assets, and advance and progress payments (contract liabilities). Contract assets exist when revenue recognition occurs prior to billings. Contract assets are transferred to trade receivables when the right to payment becomes unconditional (i.e., when receipt of the amount is dependent only on the passage of time). Conversely, the Company often receives payments from its customers before revenue is recognized, resulting in contract liabilities. These assets and liabilities are reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as Contract assets and within Advance and progress payments, respectively, on a contract-by-contract net basis at the end of each reporting period.
Contract asset and liability balances for the period were as follows:

The revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 that was included in contract liabilities at the beginning of the period amounted to $131 million and $85 million, respectively. The Company assumed contract liabilities from acquisitions in the amount of $263 million in 2025. The remainder of the change from December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 is driven by the timing of advance and milestone payments received from customers, customer returns and fulfillment of performance obligations. There were no significant changes in the contract balances other than those described above.

NOTE 10. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The fair value framework requires the categorization of assets and liabilities into three levels based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price the assets or liabilities. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment. The three levels are defined as follows:
•Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Company can assess at the measurement date.
•Level 2: Observable inputs other than those included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. For example, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets.
•Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability.
Financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:

Investments represent securities held in a trust for the non-qualified deferred compensation plan and the executive severance plan. Investments are classified as trading securities and are valued based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that the Company has the ability to access. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, $1 million and $2 million, respectively, of investments are recorded in Other current assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets related to investments that are expected to be redeemed within the next twelve months. The remaining investments are reported separately in Restricted cash and Other assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The Company uses the income approach to measure the fair value of derivative instruments on a recurring basis. This approach calculates the present value of the future cash flow by measuring the change between the derivative contract rate and the published market indicative currency rate, multiplied by the contract notional values, and applying an appropriate discount rate as well as a factor of credit risk.
The Notes are not registered securities nor listed on any securities exchange but may be traded by qualified institutional buyers. As of March 31, 2026, the fair values of the 2026 Notes and 2030 Notes estimated using Level 2 inputs were $402 million and $559 million, respectively.
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and payables, marketable securities, as well as financial instruments included in Other current assets and Other current liabilities, approximate fair values because of their short-term maturities.
The carrying values of the Company's revolving credit facility and Term Loan B recorded in Long-term debt on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets approximate their fair values due to the borrowings variable interest rates.
NOTE 11. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT
Derivative financial instruments
All derivatives are recorded as assets or liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at their respective fair values. For derivatives designated as cash flow and fair value hedges, the unrealized gain or loss related to the derivatives is recorded in Other comprehensive income (loss) until the hedged transaction affects earnings. The Company assesses at the inception of the hedge, whether the derivative in the hedging transaction will be highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows or in fair value of the hedged item. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that do not meet the criteria for designation as a hedge are recognized in earnings.
Foreign Exchange: The Company manufactures and sells products in a number of countries throughout the world and, as a result, the Company is exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company's major foreign currency exposures involve the markets in Western Europe, South America and Asia. Some sales and purchase contracts contain embedded derivatives due to the nature of doing business in certain jurisdictions, which the Company takes into consideration as part of its risk management policy. The purpose of foreign currency hedging activities is to manage the economic impact of exchange rate volatility associated with anticipated foreign currency purchases and sales made in the normal course of business. The Company primarily utilizes forward foreign exchange contracts with maturities of less than one year in managing this foreign exchange rate risk. The Company has not designated these forward foreign exchange contracts, which had a notional value at March 31, 2026 of $597 million, as hedges and therefore does not apply hedge accounting.
The fair values of our foreign currency derivative assets are recorded within Other current assets and Other assets, and the fair values of foreign currency derivative liabilities are recorded within Other current liabilities and Other liabilities. The following table presents the fair value of foreign currency derivatives and embedded derivatives included within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets:

A master netting arrangement allows counterparties to net settle amounts owed to each other as a result of separate offsetting derivative transactions. The Company enters into master netting arrangements with its counterparties when possible to mitigate credit risk in derivative transactions by permitting it to net settle for transactions with the same counterparty. However, the Company does not net settle with such counterparties. As a result, derivatives are presented at their gross fair values in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, information related to these offsetting arrangements was as follows:

Net Investment: The Company uses cross currency swaps to hedge portions of its net investments denominated in Euro against the effect of adverse foreign exchange rate fluctuations on the translation of foreign currency balances to the U.S. dollar. The gains or losses on these derivative instruments are included in the foreign currency translation component of other comprehensive income until the net investment is sold, diluted, or liquidated. The Company elected to use the spot method to assess the effectiveness for these derivatives that are designated as net investment hedges for accounting purposes. Coupons received for the cross currency swaps are excluded from the net investment hedge effectiveness assessment and are recorded in Interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Cash flows related to coupons received on the swaps are included in operating activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and the final exchange on the swaps will be reported in financing activities.
In the second and third quarter of 2025, the Company entered into a series of cross currency swap agreements that synthetically swap U.S. dollar denominated fixed rate debt to Euro denominated fixed rate debt with a combined notional amount of $2 billion. These cross currency swaps were designated as net investment hedges. Swaps with a combined notional amount of $986 million mature in June 2029, $578 million mature in June 2030, and $581 million mature in June 2031, respectively.
At March 31, 2026, the fair value of these derivatives designated as net investment hedges were recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as Other assets of $20 million and as Accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax, of $15 million. At December 31, 2025, the fair value of these derivatives designated as net investment hedges were recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as Other liabilities of $23 million and as Accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax, of $17 million.
Fair Value: On January 3, 2025, the Company entered into five cross-currency swaps expiring in January 2032 related to the portion of the U.S. dollar denominated Term Loan B drawn down by JBT Marel's European entity. These cross currency swap agreements have a combined notional amount of $693 million and synthetically swap interest rates from SOFR to EURIBOR and hedge the impact of variability in exchange rates on the U.S. dollar denominated debt and related interest payments, excluding the credit spread, by our euro-functional entity.
The Company has designated these swaps as fair value hedges and changes in the fair value of these swaps are recognized in earnings in the period realized. The gains and losses related to the change in the fair value of the hedged components of the swaps are included in other income and substantially offset the change in the fair value of the hedged portion of the underlying debt that is attributable to the change in euro to U.S. dollar exchange rates. Changes in fair value of the swaps related to excluded components of the derivative instruments are recognized in Accumulated other comprehensive income and recognized into earnings systematically over the life of the hedged instrument.
At March 31, 2026, the fair value of these derivatives designated as fair value hedges was recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as Other liabilities of $102 million and as Accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax, of $22 million. At December 31, 2025, the fair value of these derivatives designated as fair value hedges was recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as Other liabilities of $117 million and as Accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax, of $20 million.
Interest Rates: In March 2020, the Company executed four interest rate swaps with a combined notional amount of $200 million and in May 2020 the Company executed one interest rate swap with a notional amount of $50 million. These interest rate swaps fixed the interest rate applicable to certain of the Company's variable-rate debt and swapped one-month SOFR rates for fixed rates. The Company designated these swaps as cash flow hedges and all changes in fair value of the swaps were recognized in Accumulated other comprehensive income. The interest rate swaps expired during the second quarter of 2025.
Refer to Note 10. Fair Value Of Financial Instruments for a description of how the values of the above financial instruments are determined.
Credit Risk
By their nature, financial instruments involve risk including credit risk for non-performance by counterparties. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk primarily consist of trade receivables and derivative contracts. The Company manages the credit risk on financial instruments by transacting only with financially secure counterparties, requiring credit approvals and establishing credit limits, and monitoring counterparties’ financial condition. The Company's maximum exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the counterparty, for all receivables and derivative contracts as of March 31, 2026, is limited to the amount drawn and outstanding on the financial instrument. Refer to Note 1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, for a description of how allowance for credit loss is determined on financial assets measured at amortized cost, which includes Trade receivables, Contract assets, and non-current receivables.

The Company’s sales‑type lease activity was not material for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.
NOTE 13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In the normal course of business, the Company is at times subject to pending and threatened legal actions, some for which the relief or damages sought may be substantial. Although the Company is not able to predict the outcome of such actions, after reviewing all pending and threatened actions with counsel and based on information currently available, management believes that the outcome of such actions, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations or financial position. However, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of such matters, if unfavorable, may be material to its results of operations in a particular future period as the time and amount of any resolution of such actions and its relationship to the future results of operations are not currently known.
Liabilities are established for pending legal claims only when losses associated with the claims are judged to be probable, and the loss can be reasonably estimated. In many lawsuits and arbitrations, it is considered not probable that a liability has been incurred or not possible to estimate the ultimate or minimum amount of that liability until the case is close to resolution, in which case no liability would be recognized until that time.
Guarantees and Product Warranties
In the ordinary course of business with customers, vendors and others, the Company issues standby letters of credit, performance bonds, surety bonds and other guarantees. These financial instruments, which totaled $86 million at March 31, 2026, represent guarantees of future performance. The Company has also provided approximately $9 million of bank guarantees and letters of credit to secure a portion of its existing financial obligations. The majority of these financial instruments expire within one year and are expected to be replaced through the issuance of new or the extension of existing letters of credit and surety bonds.
In some instances, the Company guarantees its customers’ financing arrangements. The Company is responsible for payment of any unpaid amounts, but will receive indemnification from third parties for ninety percent of the contract values. In addition, the Company generally retains recourse to the equipment sold. As of March 31, 2026, the gross value of these arrangements was not material.
The Company provides warranties of various lengths and terms to certain customers based on standard terms and conditions and negotiated agreements. The Company provides for the estimated cost of warranties at the time revenue is recognized for products where reliable, historical experience of warranty claims and costs exist. The Company also provides a warranty liability when additional specific obligations are identified. The warranty obligation reflected in Other current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets is based on historical experience by product and considers failure rates and the related costs in correcting a product failure. Warranty cost and accrual information were as follows:

NOTE 14. BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION
In the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company realigned its reportable segments to better reflect the continued integration of its operating model. Giving effect to the realignment, the Company operates through two reportable segments: Protein Solutions and Prepared Food and Beverage Solutions. The Company defines its segments based on which internally reported financial information is regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) to analyze financial performance, make decisions and allocate resources.
•The Protein Solutions segment includes businesses that provide solutions for initial stage processing and harvesting of animal proteins, primarily focusing on poultry, pork, fish, and beef.
•The Prepared Food and Beverage Solutions segment includes businesses that offer solutions predominantly for downstream value-added preparation, preservation, and packaging of foods and beverages into ready to eat or drink products. This segment also includes solutions that are often end-market agnostic, spanning protein, beverages, fruit & vegetables, pet food, ready meals, pharmaceuticals and neutraceuticals, and warehouse automation.
The Company's Chief Executive Officer is the CODM, who assesses the segments’ performance using each segment’s Adjusted EBITDA. The CODM is not regularly provided with and does not evaluate the segments using segment total assets and therefore, each segment’s total assets are not disclosed.
Segment profitability measures and significant expenses

NOTE 15. RESTRUCTURING
Restructuring charges primarily consist of employee separation benefits under existing severance programs, foreign statutory termination benefits, certain one-time termination benefits, contract termination costs and other costs that are associated with restructuring actions. Certain restructuring charges are accrued prior to payments made in accordance with applicable guidance. For such charges, the amounts are determined based on estimates prepared at the time the restructuring actions were approved by management. Inventory write offs due to restructuring are reported in Cost of sales and all other restructuring charges are reported in Selling, general and administrative expense within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
In the first quarter of 2025, the Company implemented a restructuring plan (the “JBT Marel 2025 Integration restructuring plan”) aiming to achieve a portion of its synergy targets as a result of the Marel acquisition to optimize the overall cost structure for the combined Company on a global basis. The initiatives under this plan include streamlining operations and adjusting our general and administrative infrastructure to meet the strategic needs of the Company. The total estimated cost in connection with this plan is in the range of $55 million to $60 million. The Company recognized cumulative restructuring charges of $29 million and expects to recognize the remaining costs by the end of 2026.
The following table details the cumulative restructuring charges reported in operating income for the JBT Marel 2025 Integration restructuring plan since its implementation:

Strategic Acquisition of Marel hf.
On January 2, 2025, the Company closed the acquisition of Marel, a multi-national food processing company based in Gardabaer, Iceland that manufactures equipment and provides other services for food processing in the poultry, meat, fish, and pet food industries. The purpose of the Marel Transaction was to create a leading and diversified global food and beverage technology solutions provider by bringing together two renowned companies with long histories, complementary product portfolios, highly respected brands, and cutting-edge technology to enable global customers to more efficiently access industry leading technology worldwide. Refer to Note 2. Acquisitions of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the Marel Transaction.
The disclosures in this “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q speak to the combined company subsequent to the Marel Transaction unless otherwise noted.
Business Conditions and Outlook
For the first quarter 2026, we delivered year-over-year growth in revenue, margins, and earnings per share. Our bottom-line performance was driven primarily by lower non-recurring and transaction related costs as well as margin enhancement efforts and lower interest expense. Orders remained strong, reflecting continued commercial momentum from global poultry customers and healthy demand from meat and fruit and vegetable end markets.
For the full year 2026, we continue to expect year-over-year growth in revenue, margins, and earnings per share. At the same time, we are closely monitoring how rising inflation may impact the price-cost dynamics for both JBT Marel and our customers.

Revenue
Total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased $82 million or 9.6% compared to the same period in 2025. Organic revenue contributed $30 million and foreign currency translation was favorable by $52 million compared to the prior year. The increase in organic revenue was primarily the result of increases in volume for recurring and non-recurring revenue.
Gross Profit and Gross Profit Margin
Gross profit margin increased 90 bps to 35.1% compared to 34.2% in 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in revenue and benefits from synergies, partially offset by higher tariff costs compared to the prior year.
Selling, general and administrative expense
Selling, general and administrative expense decreased $64 million compared to the same period in the prior year. Selling, general and administrative expense as a percentage of revenue decreased 1,020 bps to 27.9% compared to 38.1% in the same period last year. This decrease is primarily driven by benefits from our JBT Marel 2025 Integration restructuring plan and lower M&A costs compared to the prior year.
Pension expense, other than service cost
Pension expense, other than service cost decreased $147 million compared to the same period in the prior year. This decrease was primarily due to the settlement charge of $147 million recognized in the first quarter of 2025 upon the termination of the U.S. qualified defined benefit pension plan.
Interest expense, net
Interest expense, net decreased $31 million compared to the prior‑year period, primarily due to the release of capitalized debt issuance costs associated with the termination of the Company’s bridge credit agreement in the first quarter of 2025 and the benefit from the Company’s net investment hedges executed in the second and third quarters of 2025.
Income tax provision (benefit)
The effective tax rate on net income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was 25.5%. The tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was unfavorably impacted by discrete items totaling $1 million. The discrete items are primarily driven by an expense from a change in management’s indefinite reinvestment assertion related to foreign earnings and a benefit related to stock compensation.
The effective tax rate on the Company’s net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was 21.1%. The tax benefit for the period was reduced by discrete items totaling $2 million, primarily driven by non-deductible acquisition costs.
Net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA
Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $45 million compared to a net loss of $173 million for the same period in 2025, representing an increase of $218 million. This increase was primarily the result of lower non-recurring costs and lower interest expense compared to the prior year.
Adjusted EBITDA was $142 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $112 million during the same period in 2025, representing an increase of $30 million. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was driven by increased volume and gross profit from synergies.
Net income (loss) margin increased to 4.8% compared to (20.3)% for the same period in 2025. This increase was primarily the result of lower non-recurring costs and lower interest expense compared to the same period in 2025. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased 210 bps to 15.2% compared to 13.1% for the same period in 2025. This increase was driven by a higher gross profit margin and lower selling, general and administrative expense due to volume leverage on fixed costs compared to the prior year.

Protein Solutions
Protein Solutions segment revenue increased by $82 million or 21.7% during the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025, of which favorable currency translation accounted for $31 million. Organic revenue growth was driven by higher recurring revenue and a recovery in nonrecurring project activity related to poultry customer end markets compared to the prior‑year period.
Protein Solutions segment Adjusted EBITDA was $100 million or 21.7% of segment revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $63 million or 16.5% for the same period in 2025. The increase of $37 million or 58.7% was primarily driven by higher gross margin and benefits from synergies, partially offset by higher tariff costs compared to the prior-year period.
Prepared Food and Beverage Solutions
Prepared Food and Beverage Solutions segment revenue was flat for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025, including a $21 million benefit from favorable foreign currency translation. The decline in organic revenue was primarily driven by lower volume across certain segment end markets during the period.
Prepared Food and Beverage Solutions segment Adjusted EBITDA was $70 million, or 14.7% of segment revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $78 million, or 16.4% for the same period in 2025. The decrease of $8 million or 10.3%, was primarily driven by lower overall performance, higher tariff costs and lower volume across certain segment end markets during the period.
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
We present non-GAAP financial measures in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. These non-GAAP financial measures adjust for certain amounts that are otherwise included or excluded from a measure calculated under U.S. GAAP. By adjusting for these items, we believe we provide greater transparency into our operating results and trends, and a more meaningful comparison of our ongoing operating results, consistent with how management evaluates performance. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in financial and operational evaluation, planning and forecasting. We also believe that these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors as a way to evaluate and compare our operating performance against peers in the Company's industry. The adjustments generally fall within the following categories: restructuring related costs, M&A related costs, pension-related costs, and other major items affecting comparability of our ongoing operating results.
The non-GAAP financial measures presented in this report may differ from similarly-titled measures used by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be used as a substitute for, nor should they be considered in isolation of, financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Additional details for each Non-GAAP financial measure follow:
•Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin: We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings adjusted for income taxes, interest expense (income), net, other financing income, pension expense other than service cost, restructuring related costs, M&A related costs and depreciation and amortization, including acquisition related depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.
•Adjusted income and Adjusted diluted earnings per share: We adjust earnings for restructuring related costs, M&A related costs, which include integration costs, amortization of inventory step-up from business combinations, impacts of foreign currency derivatives and trades to hedge variability of exchange rates on the cash consideration paid for business combination, advisory and transaction costs for both potential and completed M&A transactions and strategy, acquisition related amortization and depreciation, amortization of debt issuance costs related to financing for M&A transactions, non-cash pension plan related settlement costs and the related tax impact.
•Free cash flow: We define free cash flow as cash provided by operating activities, less capital expenditures, plus proceeds from sale of fixed assets and pension contributions.
The tables below reconcile each non-GAAP financial measure to the most comparable GAAP financial measure.
The following table presents a reconciliation of the Company's reported income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA.

(1) Other financing income represents transaction gains from fair value hedges on our foreign currency denominated debt, and are considered non-operating as they relate to our cost of borrowing on this debt.
(2) Pension expense, other than service cost, is excluded as it represents all non service-related pension expense, which consists of non-cash interest cost, expected return on plan assets, amortization of actuarial gains and losses, and settlement charges.
(3) Restructuring and related costs, net incurred as a direct result of the restructuring program primarily consists of severance and related costs and are excluded as they are not part of the ongoing operations of our underlying business.
(4) M&A related costs for the three months ended March 31, 2026, include advisory, strategy and integration related costs for completed M&A transactions. M&A related costs are excluded as they are generally short-term in nature and turn over quickly or are not part of the ongoing operations of our underlying business.
(5) Depreciation and amortization, including the acquisition related amortization and depreciation expense, is excluded to determine Adjusted EBITDA.

Restructuring
In the first quarter of 2025, the Company implemented a restructuring plan (the “JBT Marel 2025 Integration Restructuring Plan”) to achieve a portion of its synergy targets as a result of the Marel acquisition to optimize the overall cost structure for the combined Company on a global basis. The initiatives under this includes streamlining operations and adjusting our general and administrative infrastructure to meet the strategic needs of the Company. The total estimated cost in connection with this plan is in the range of $55 million to $60 million. The Company recognized cumulative restructuring charges of $29 million through March 31, 2026 and expects to recognize the remaining costs by the end of 2026.
The following table details the cumulative amount of annualized savings and incremental savings for the JBT Marel 2025 Integration restructuring plan:

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview of Sources and Uses of Cash
Our primary sources of liquidity include our cash flows generated from operations and availability under our revolving credit facility.
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, we had total operating cash flows of $119 million. Our liquidity as of March 31, 2026, or cash plus borrowing ability under our existing revolving credit facility, was $2.1 billion.
In the second quarter of 2026, the Company's 0.25% Convertible Senior Notes, which were originally issued in the second quarter of 2021, are scheduled to mature. The Company expects to satisfy the outstanding principal amount of $403 million through cash repayment at maturity, utilizing cash on hand or available under our revolving credit facility. Based on our current capital allocation objectives, we anticipate capital expenditures to be between $105 million and $120 million during 2026. Our level of capital expenditures varies from time to time as a result of actual and anticipated business conditions. During 2026, we also expect to incur integration costs and other synergy-related costs in the range of $45 million to $55 million related to the acquisition of Marel in the first quarter of 2025.
Additionally, the cash flows generated by our operations are expected to be sufficient to satisfy our principal cash requirements that include our working capital needs, new product development, restructuring expenses, capital expenditures, income taxes, debt interest and repayments, dividends, and other financing arrangements.
As of March 31, 2026, we had $211 million of cash and cash equivalents, $103 million of which was held by our foreign subsidiaries. Although certain funds are considered permanently invested in our foreign subsidiaries, we are not presently aware of any restriction on the repatriation of these funds. We maintain significant operations outside of the U.S., and many of our uses of cash for working capital and capital expenditures arise in these foreign jurisdictions. If these funds were needed to fund our operations or satisfy obligations in the U.S., they could be repatriated and their repatriation into the U.S. could cause us to incur additional U.S. income tax and foreign withholding taxes. The foreign withholding taxes on these repatriations to the U.S. would potentially be partially offset by U.S. foreign tax credits.
As noted above, certain funds held outside of the U.S. are considered permanently invested in our non-U.S. subsidiaries. At times, these foreign subsidiaries have cash balances that exceed their immediate working capital or other cash needs. In these circumstances, the foreign subsidiaries may loan funds to the U.S. parent company on a temporary basis; the U.S. parent company has in the past and may in the future use the proceeds of these temporary intercompany loans to reduce outstanding borrowings under our committed credit facilities. By using available non-U.S. cash to repay our debt on a short-term basis, we can optimize our leverage ratio, which has the effect of lowering our interest costs.
Cash Flows
Cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were as follows:

(1,109) |
|
Cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $119 million, representing a $85 million increase compared to the same period in 2025. The increase was driven by higher net income, increased customer advance collections, and lower accounts payable payments, partially offset by higher inventory purchases and receivable growth.
Cash required by investing activities was $19 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to cash required of $1,766 million during the same period in 2025. The decrease in cash outflows during the period reflects the absence of acquisition-related payments, as the acquisition of Marel occurred in the first quarter of 2025.
Cash required by financing activities was $54 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to cash provided of $621 million during the same period in 2025. The year-over-year decrease in net cash provided by financing activities was due to the absence of the prior-year financing activities utilized to fund the acquisition of Marel in the first quarter of 2025.
Financing Arrangements
As of March 31, 2026, we had $1.8 billion of availability under the revolving credit facility.
Our Second A&R Credit Agreement includes restrictive covenants that, if not met, could lead to a renegotiation of our credit lines, a requirement to repay our borrowings and/or a significant increase in our cost of financing. Restrictive covenants include a minimum interest coverage ratio, a maximum leverage ratio, as well as certain events of default. As of March 31, 2026, we were in compliance with all covenants in the Second A&R Credit Agreement. We expect to remain in compliance with all covenants.
On January 2, 2025, we executed takeout financing consisting of an amended and restated 5-year, $1.8 billion revolving credit facility and a 7-year, $900 million senior secured term loan B.
Concurrently with the issuances of the 2026 Notes and the 2030 Notes, we entered into convertible note hedge transactions and warrant transactions.
For additional information about our borrowings, refer to Note 6. Debt of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
As of March 31, 2026, a portion of our total gross outstanding debt of $1,869 million effectively remained fixed rate debt, with the 2026 Notes and the 2030 Notes subject to a fixed rate of 0.25% and 0.375%, respectively. Our revolving credit facility and Term Loan B are subject to floating, or market rates, in addition to a premium charged for their respective credit spreads. Approximately $892 million or 48% of the total debt balance as of March 31, 2026 was variable rate debt and subject to floating rates.
On January 3, 2025, we entered into five cross-currency swaps expiring in January 2032 related to the portion of the U.S. dollar denominated Term Loan B debt drawn down by JBT Marel's European entity. These cross currency swap agreements have a combined notional amount of $693 million and synthetically swapped an average SOFR interest rate of 3.69% with an average EURIBOR rate of 1.93% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, to hedge the impact of variability in exchange rates on the U.S. dollar dominated debt and related interest payments, excluding credit spread, by our euro-functional entity.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
There were no material changes in our judgments and assumptions associated with the development of our critical accounting estimates during the period ended March 31, 2026. Refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 for a discussion of our critical accounting estimates.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
There have been no material changes in reported market risks from the information reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, management of the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)).
As previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended 2025, prior to the acquisition of Marel hf. (“Marel”), Marel management identified material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting, which are described below. The acquired business was previously excluded from the Company’s internal control over financial reporting assessment under SEC staff guidance but is included in the Company’s assessment for the current fiscal year.
Conclusion on Effectiveness
In accordance with SEC guidance, the Company recognizes the substantial overlap between a company’s disclosure controls and procedures and its internal control over financial reporting. Due to the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2026. Notwithstanding this conclusion, in the opinion of management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition as reported in conformity with U.S. GAAP.
Previously Identified Material Weaknesses in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Prior to the acquisition, the management of Marel, which was not previously required to comply with the internal controls requirement of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act or U.S. GAAP, identified the following material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting, which remained unremediated as of March 31, 2026:
•Information Technology: The Company’s acquired entity, Marel, did not design and maintain effective information technology general controls for information systems that are relevant to financial reporting. Specifically, the acquired entity did not design and maintain: (i) program change management controls to ensure that information technology program and data changes are identified, tested, authorized, and implemented appropriately; (ii) user access controls to ensure appropriate segregation of duties and to adequately restrict user and privileged access to appropriate personnel; (iii) computer operations controls to ensure that processing and transfer of data, and data backups and recovery are monitored; and (iv) program development controls to ensure that new software development is tested, authorized and implemented appropriately.
These IT deficiencies did not result in a material misstatement to the consolidated financial statements, however, the deficiencies, when aggregated, could impact maintaining effective segregation of duties, as well as the effectiveness of IT-dependent controls (such as automated controls that address the risk of material misstatement to one or more assertions, along with the IT controls and underlying data that support the effectiveness of system-generated data and reports) that could result in misstatements potentially impacting all financial statement accounts and disclosures that would not be prevented or detected.
•Journal entries: The Company’s acquired entity, Marel, did not design and maintain effective controls over the recording and review of journal entries for validity, accuracy, and completeness. Specifically, certain key accounting personnel have the ability to prepare and post journal entries without an appropriately designed independent review. This material weakness did not result in a material misstatement to the consolidated financial statements.
While the above material weaknesses have not resulted in a material misstatement to the consolidated financial statements, such material weaknesses resulted in misstatements that were not material to our consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The above material weaknesses could result in misstatements of Marel’s financial statement accounts or disclosures to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.
Remediation Plan and Progress
The Company is committed to remediating the material weaknesses and has taken, or is in the process of taking, the following remediation measures:
•Applied a risk‑based approach to prioritize the design of controls related to information technology and journal entry processing controls.
•Configuration of controls related to user access and change management within information technology environments impacting financial reporting, with ongoing evaluation of control design, implementation and operating effectiveness.
•Configured system‑based, role‑based access controls over journal entry processing, with ongoing evaluation of control design, implementation and operating effectiveness.
•Continuing to perform manual control activities designed to mitigate risks associated with the identified control deficiencies while remediation efforts are ongoing.
•Continued engagement of external advisors to support remediation efforts, including project management and guidance on control design and documentation.
•Conducting targeted training efforts and hired personnel with relevant internal control experience to support remediation and ongoing control performance.
As management continues to evaluate the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, the Company may take additional measures to address control deficiencies or may modify certain remediation measures described above.
The material weaknesses will not be considered remediated until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls operate effectively.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in the evaluation for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act.
PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, we may be subject to legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of our business. We are not currently a party to or aware of any proceedings that we believe will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
There have been no material changes in reported risk factors from the information reported in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Exhibit 10.2
LONG TERM INCENTIVE RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT PURSUANT TO THE JOHN BEAN TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION2017 INCENTIVE COMPENSATION AND STOCK PLAN
This Agreement is made as of <<Grant Date>> (the “Grant Date”) by JBT MAREL CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation, (the “Company”) and <<Participant Name>> (the “Employee”).
In 2017, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) adopted the John Bean Technologies Corporation 2017 Incentive Compensation and Stock Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan, as it may be amended and continued, is incorporated by reference and made a part of this Agreement and will control the rights and obligations of the Company and the Employee under this Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all capitalized terms have the meanings provided in the Plan. To the extent there is a conflict between the Plan and this Agreement, the provisions of the Plan will control.
The Compensation and Human Resources Committee of the Board (the “Committee”) determined that it would be to the competitive advantage and interest of the Company and its stockholders to grant an award of restricted stock units to the Employee as an inducement to remain in the service of the Company or one of its affiliates (collectively, the “Employer”), and as an incentive for increased efforts during such service.
The Committee, on behalf of the Company, grants to the Employee an award of <<Quantity Granted>> restricted stock units (the “RSUs”), which is equal to an equivalent number of shares of the Company’s common stock, par value of $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”).
The award is made upon the following terms and conditions:
1.Vesting. The RSUs will vest ratably over a three-year period from issuance, one-third on each of the first, second and third anniversary of the Grant Date (each, a “Vesting Date”), subject to the Employee’s continued employment with the Employer through each applicable Vesting Date. On each Vesting Date, 1/3rd of the total RSUs granted hereunder will be immediately settled in shares of Common Stock and will be immediately transferable thereafter. In the event of the Employee’s Retirement (as defined below), any portion of the RSUs not yet vested will not vest until the Vesting Dates following such Retirement and, on each such Vesting Date, the vesting portion of such RSUs will be immediately settled in shares of Common Stock and will be immediately transferable thereafter (and, in any event, within 70 days thereafter) (the “Retirement Treatment”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the RSUs will vest and will be immediately settled in shares of Common Stock and be immediately transferable thereafter (but in any event, within 70 days) upon the occurrence of any of the following events:
(a)the Employee’s death;
(b)the Employee’s Disability;
(c)a Change in Control under which the successor corporation does not assume the Awards that remain outstanding under the Plan as of the effective date of the Change in Control, provided, if the Employee is or could be eligible for Retirement prior to the Expiration Date of the Employee’s Award, this Section 1(c) shall not be applicable and, as such, the Employee’s Award shall not vest and be settled under this Section 1(c) and instead will be settled in accordance with the Retirement Treatment. For purposes herein, upon a Change in Control, the successor corporation shall be deemed to have assumed the Awards that remain outstanding under the Plan as of the effective date of the Change in Control if and only if such Awards are either (i) assumed or continued by the successor corporation, preserving the terms and conditions and existing value of the Awards as of the effective date of the Change in Control or (ii) replaced by the successor corporation with equity awards that preserve the existing value of the Awards as of the effective date of the Change in Control and provide terms and conditions that are the same or more favorable to the participants as those existing as of the effective date of the Change in Control and that otherwise comply with, and do not result in a violation of, Section 409A of the Code, which replacement shall be subject to the Committee’s approval;
(d)an involuntary Termination of Employment of the Employee by the Company for reasons other than Cause within twenty-four (24) calendar months following the date on which a Change in Control of the Company occurs; or
(e)a voluntary Termination of Employment by the Employee for Good Reason within twenty-four (24) calendar months following the date on which a Change in Control of the Company occurs pursuant to a notice of termination of employment delivered to the Company by the Employee.
In the event of the Termination of Employment of the Employee by the Company under circumstances where the Employee is entitled to the benefits under the Company’s Executive Severance Pay Plan, the Employee shall be entitled to retain the ratable portion of the total RSUs granted hereunder determined under the terms of that plan, which will vest on the Vesting Date or Vesting Dates following the termination date in the manner stated in Section 1 of this Agreement.
Any portion of the RSUs not yet vested will be forfeited upon termination of the Employee’s employment with the Employer prior to any remaining Vesting Dates for a reason other than death, Disability, the circumstances of a Change in Control described above, as provided for by the Company’s Executive Severance Pay Plan, or Retirement.
For purposes of this Agreement, “Retirement” means the Employee’s Termination of Employment due to such Employee’s retirement when the Employee’s age plus Years of Service with the Employer equals at least 70; provided, that the Employee has attained at least age 55 and has provided at least five Years of Service to the Employer,as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.
2. Adjustment. The Committee shall make equitable substitutions or adjustments in the RSUs as it determines to be appropriate in the event of any corporate event or transaction such as a stock split, merger, consolidation, separation, including a spin-off or other distribution of stock or property of the Company, reorganization or any partial or complete liquidation of the Company.
3. Rights as Stockholder.
(a) Until any portion of the RSUs vest and are settled in shares of Common Stock, the Employee shall have no rights as a stockholder of the Company. The vested portion of the RSUs will be settled in shares of Common Stock and issued in the form of a book entry registration.
(b) Prior to any Vesting Date, the Employee may not vote, sell, exchange, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of any of the RSUs, and thereafter only the portion vested. The RSUs have Dividend Equivalent Rights subject to the same vesting requirements as stated in Section 1 of this Agreement and such rights are subject to forfeiture to the same extent as the underlying RSUs for unvested portions of the RSUs.
4. No Limitation on Rights of the Company. The granting of RSUs will not in any way affect the right or power of the Company to make adjustments, reclassifications or changes in its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, reincorporate, dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.
5. Employment. Nothing in this Agreement or in the Plan will be construed as constituting a commitment, guarantee, agreement or understanding of any kind or nature that the Employer will continue to employ the Employee, or as affecting in any way the right of the Employer to terminate the employment of the Employee at any time.
6. Government Regulation. The Company’s obligation to deliver Common Stock following the Vesting Date will be subject to all applicable laws, rules and regulations and to such approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities exchanges as may be required.
7. Withholding. The Employer will comply with all applicable withholding tax laws, and will be entitled to take any action necessary to effectuate such compliance. The Company may withhold a portion of the Common Stock to which the Employee or beneficiary otherwise would be entitled on each Vesting Date equivalent in value to the taxes required to be withheld, determined based upon the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock
vested. For purposes of withholding, Fair Market Value shall be equal to the closing price of the Common Stock vested on each Vesting Date, or, if a Vesting Date is not a business day, the next business day immediately following such Vesting Date.
8, Notice.

Exhibit 10.3
LONG TERM INCENTIVE PERFORMANCE SHARE RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT PURSUANT TO THE JOHN BEAN TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION 2017 INCENTIVE COMPENSATION AND STOCK PLAN
This Agreement is made as of <<Grant Date>> (the “Grant Date”) by JBT MAREL CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation, (the “Company”) and <<Participant Name>> (the “Employee”).
In 2017, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) adopted the John Bean Technologies Corporation 2017 Incentive Compensation and Stock Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan, as it may be amended and continued, is incorporated by reference and made a part of this Agreement and will control the rights and obligations of the Company and the Employee under this Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all capitalized terms have the meanings provided in the Plan. To the extent there is a conflict between the Plan and this Agreement, the provisions of the Plan will control.
The Compensation and Human Resources Committee of the Board (the “Committee”) determined that it would be to the competitive advantage and interest of the Company and its stockholders to grant an award of restricted stock units to the Employee, the amount of which will vary based on the Company’s performance, as an inducement to remain in the service of the Company or one of its affiliates (collectively, the “Employer”), and as an incentive for increased efforts during such service.
The Committee, on behalf of the Company, grants to the Employee an award (the “Award”) of << Quantity Granted>> restricted stock units (the “RSUs”), which is equal to an equivalent number of shares of the Company’s common stock par value of $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”). The number of RSUs ultimately earned by the Employee will depend upon the Company’s performance in each year during a three-year performance period, <<Custom Field 3 >> as measured by two performance criteria –EPS and average operating ROIC – as potentially adjusted by one performance modifier – relative TSR – calculated over the full, completed three-year period. One-third of the total RSUs subject to the Award will relate to performance during each year of the three-year performance period (“Performance Period”). The performance criteria will be measured independently for each year during the Performance Period and any applicable performance modifier will be measured at the end of entire Performance Period. The actual number of RSUs earned by the Employee with respect to each year of the Performance Period will be determined at a meeting of the Committee following the completion of each year of the Performance Period, at which time the Committee will determine whether the performance criteria have been satisfied for the year most recently ended and will review and approve the Company’s calculation of the Company’s performance on the two measures’ specified performance criteria. The total number of RSUs earned with respect to each year of the Performance Period will vary between 0-200% of one-third of the total target RSU award amount depending on where in the specified performance range for each measure the Company’s performance on the two measures falls for such performance year. For each performance year, there will be a minimum level for each measure below which the Employee will receive 0% of the one-third of the total target RSU award associated with that year, and correspondingly a maximum performance level which, even if exceeded, will not generate more than 200% of the one-third of the total target RSU award associated with that year. In between the minimum and maximum performance targets, the performance level of each measure will be plotted on a predefined curve which will indicate, for each year, the percentage of the total target RSU award amount associated with the year that has been achieved. The performance results achieved for each measure will be weighted 70% for EPS and 30% for ROIC, and the weighted amounts will be then added together to determine the actual percentage payout of the total target RSU award amount associated with that year. At the end of the Performance Period, the Committee will review and may approve the Company’s calculation of the performance modifier and determine the amount of any adjustment to the total amount of RSUs earned for the three-year Performance Period. The performance criteria set forth herein shall also be referred to in this Agreement as the “Performance Criteria.”
The award is made upon the following terms and conditions:
1.Vesting. The RSUs ultimately earned by the Employee will vest on the third anniversary of the Grant Date (the “Vesting Date”), subject to the Employee’s continued employment with the Employer through the Vesting Date and achievement of the Performance Criteria. Upon the Vesting Date, the RSUs will be immediately settled in shares of Common Stock and will be immediately transferable thereafter. In the event of the Employee’s Retirement (as defined below), the RSUs will not vest until the Vesting Date, subject to the achievement of the Performance Criteria and, upon such Vesting Date, such RSUs will be immediately settled in shares of Common Stock and will be immediately transferable thereafter (and, in any event, within 70 days thereafter), with the amount of the resulting award to be determined on the basis of the Company’s achievement of the Performance Criteria; provided, that if the date of the Employee’s Retirement is before the first anniversary of the start date of the applicable Performance Period, the amount of the resulting award will be determined on a prorated basis based on the number of days the Employee was employed during the applicable Performance Period (collectively, the “Retirement Treatment”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the RSUs will vest and will be immediately settled in shares of Common Stock and be immediately transferable thereafter (but in any event within 70 days) upon the occurrence of any of the following events:
(a)the Employee’s death;
(b)the Employee’s Disability;
(c)a Change in Control under which the successor corporation does not assume the Awards that remain outstanding under the Plan as of the effective date of the Change in Control, provided, if the Employee is or could be eligible for Retirement prior to the Expiration Date of the Employee’s Award, this Section 1(c) shall not be applicable and, as such, the Employee’s Award shall not vest and be settled under this Section 1(c) and instead will be settled in accordance with the Retirement Treatment. For purposes herein, upon a Change in Control, the successor corporation shall be deemed to have assumed the Awards that remain outstanding under the Plan as of the effective date of the Change in Control if and only if such Awards are either (i) assumed or continued by the successor corporation, preserving the terms and conditions and existing value of the Awards as of the effective date of the Change in Control or (ii) replaced by the successor corporation with equity awards that preserve the existing value of the Awards as of the effective date of the Change in Control and provide terms and conditions that are the same or more favorable to the participants as those existing as of the effective date of the Change in Control and that otherwise comply with, and do not result in a violation of, Section 409A of the Code, which replacement shall be subject to the Committee’s approval;
(d)an involuntary Termination of Employment of the Employee by the Company for reasons other than Cause within twenty-four (24) calendar months following the date on which a Change in Control of the Company occurs; or
(e)a voluntary Termination of Employment by the Employee for Good Reason within twenty-four (24) calendar months following the date on which a Change in Control of the Company occurs pursuant to a notice of termination of employment delivered to the Company by the Employee.
For purposes of determining the amount of the resulting award in such an event, the number of RSUs relating to any then-completed year(s) in the performance period that are deemed earned will be determined based on actual performance and, for any year(s) that have not then been completed, it will be assumed that the Company achieved “target” performance on each of the performance measures for such year(s), resulting in the payment of 100% of the one-third of the total target RSU award amount of this grant relating to such year(s). Performance modifiers will not be considered nor will they apply in any case when the full three-year performance period has not been completed.
All RSUs granted to the Employee will be forfeited upon a Termination of Employment with the Employer before the Vesting Date for any reason other than death, Disability, the circumstances of a Change in Control described above, as provided for by the Company’s Executive Severance Pay Plan under the circumstances described above, or Retirement.
In the event of the Termination of Employment of the Employee by the Company under circumstances where the Employee is entitled to the benefits under the Company’s Executive Severance Pay Plan, the RSUs may be prorated solely at the discretion of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Committee as specified under the terms of that plan, and any of which RSUs that are prorated will vest and will be immediately settled in shares of Common Stock and be immediately transferable on the Vesting Date.
For purposes of this Agreement, “Retirement” means the Employee’s Termination of Employment due to such Employee’s retirement when the Employee’s age plus Years of Service with the Employer equals at least 70; provided, that the Employee has attained at least age 55 and has provided at least five Years of Service to the Employer, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.
2. Adjustment. The Committee shall make equitable substitutions or adjustments in the RSUs as it determines to be appropriate in the event of any corporate event or transaction such as a stock split, merger, consolidation, separation, including a spin-off or other distribution of stock or property of the Company, reorganization or any partial or complete liquidation of the Company and shall make equitable adjustments to the financial results utilized for determining the level of achievement of the performance criteria as it determines to be appropriate to eliminate the impact of subsequent events that are objective, represent unusual or extraordinary items or events or are otherwise determined to be appropriate to adjust for, including (i) restructurings, discontinued operations, foreign currency translation, acquisitions and dispositions and mark-to-market accounting, (ii) charges relating to impairment and other unusual or nonrecurring charges and (iii) a change in tax law or accounting standards, practices or policies.
3. Rights as Stockholder.
(a) Until the RSUs are vested and settled in shares of Common Stock, the Employee shall have no rights as a stockholder of the Company. The vested RSUs will be settled in shares of Common Stock and issued in the form of a book entry registration in the amount earned as a result of Company performance.
(b) Prior to the Vesting Date, the Employee may not vote, sell, exchange, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of any of the RSUs. The RSUs have Dividend Equivalent Rights subject to the same vesting requirements as stated in Section 1 of this Agreement and such rights are subject to forfeiture to the same extent as the underlying RSUs.
4. No Limitation on Rights of the Company. The granting of RSUs will not in any way affect the right or power of the Company to make adjustments, reclassifications or changes in its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, reincorporate, dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.
5. Employment. Nothing in this Agreement or in the Plan will be construed as constituting a commitment, guarantee, agreement or understanding of any kind or nature that the Employer will continue to employ the Employee, or as affecting in any way the right of the Employer to terminate the employment of the Employee at any time.
6. Government Regulation. The Company’s obligation to deliver Common Stock following the Vesting Date will be subject to all applicable laws, rules and regulations and to such approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities exchanges as may be required.
7. Withholding. The Employer will comply with all applicable withholding tax laws and will be entitled to take any action necessary to effectuate such compliance. The Company may withhold a portion of the Common Stock to which the Employee or beneficiary otherwise would be entitled equivalent in value to the taxes required to be withheld, determined based upon the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock. For purposes of withholding, Fair Market Value shall be equal to the closing price of the amount of Common Stock earned by the Employee pursuant to this award on the Vesting Date, or, if the Vesting Date is not a business day, the next business day immediately following the Vesting Date.
8. Notice. Any notice to the Company provided for in this Agreement will be addressed to it in care of its Secretary, JBT Marel Corporation, 333 West Wacker Drive, Suite 3400, Chicago, Illinois 60606, and any notice to the Employee (or other person entitled to receive the RSUs) will be addressed to such person at the Employee’s address now on file with the Company, or to such other address as either may designate to the other in writing. Any notice will be deemed to be duly given when enclosed in a properly sealed envelope addressed as stated above and deposited, postage paid, in a post office or branch post office regularly maintained by the United States government.
9. Administration. The Committee administers the Plan. The Employee’s rights under this Agreement are expressly subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, a copy of which may be accessed through the Fidelity NetBenefits website, including any guidelines the Committee adopts from time to time.
10. Binding Effect. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and permitted assigns.
11. Sole Agreement. This Agreement is the entire agreement between the parties to it, and any and all prior oral and written representations are merged into this Agreement. This Agreement may only be amended by written agreement between the Company and the Employee. Employee expressly acknowledges that the form of the grant agreement that the Employee accepts electronically through the Fidelity NetBenefits website is intended to facilitate the administration of this RSU award and may not be a full version of this Agreement due to limitations inherit in such website that are imposed by Fidelity. The terms of this Agreement will govern the Employee’s award in the event of any inconsistency with the agreement viewed or accepted by the Employee on the Fidelity NetBenefits website.
12. Governing Law. The interpretation, performance and enforcement of this Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware.
13. Privacy. Employee acknowledges and agrees to the Employer transferring certain personal data of such Employee to the Company for purposes of implementing, performing or administering the Plan or any related benefit. Employee expressly gives consent to the Employer and the Company to process such personal data.
14. Code Section 409A. This Agreement is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and shall be interpreted and construed consistently with such intent. In the event the terms of this Agreement would subject Employee to taxes or penalties under Section 409A of the Code (“409A Penalties”), the Company and Employee shall cooperate diligently to amend the terms of this Agreement to avoid such 409A Penalties, to the extent possible. To the extent the RSUs under this Agreement are payable by reference to Employee’s “termination of employment” such term and similar terms shall be deemed to refer to Employee’s “separation from service,” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, to the extent the RSUs constitute nonqualified deferred compensation, within the meaning of Section 409A, then (i) if such RSUs are conditioned upon Employee’s execution of a release and are scheduled to be paid during a designated period that begins in one taxable year and ends in a second taxable year, such RSUs shall be paid in the later of the two taxable years and (ii) if Employee is a specified employee (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) as of the date of Employee’s separation from service, if such RSUs are payable upon Employee’s separation from service and would have been paid prior to the six-month anniversary of Employee’s separation from service, then the payment of such RSUs shall be delayed until the earlier to occur of (A) the first day of the seventh month following Employee’s separation from service or (B) the date of Employee’s death.
