Mobile Solutions segment (Mobile) sales increased 5.5% from higher volumes and pricing.
Aftermarket sales increased 10.9% driven by continued market share gains and destocking in the
prior year period. On-Road and Off-Road sales decreased 6.0% and 9.8%, respectively, from a
decline in global equipment production.

Industrial Solutions segment (Industrial) sales increased 2.9% as a result of volume growth and
pricing. Aerospace and Defense sales grew 5.9% supported by robust Aerospace end-market
conditions. Industrial Filtration Solutions (IFS) sales grew 2.4% driven by dust collection
replacement part and Power Generation sales.

Life Sciences segment (Life Sciences) sales increased 24.2% from strong volume growth
resulting from Bioprocessing Equipment sales timing and Disk Drive.

Gross margin was 35.6%, up 260 basis points from 33.0% in 2023 driven by leverage on higher
sales, pricing benefits and input cost deflation.

Operating expenses as a percentage of sales were 20.1%, an increase from 18.8% in the prior
year, due to increased hiring and investments in the scaling of acquired Life Sciences businesses.

Operating income as a percentage of sales (operating margin) of 15.5% increased 130 basis
points year over year from 14.2% in 2023 as a result of gross margin improvement, partially
offset by an increase in operating expenses.

Interest expense was $5.0 million, approximately flat compared with prior year as lower debt
levels offset higher interest rates. Other income, net increased to $5.4 million compared with
$2.6 million in 2023, primarily from foreign exchange gains versus foreign exchange losses in
the prior year period. The Company’s effective tax rate was 21.2% versus 22.9% a year ago
driven by an increase in discrete tax benefits.

Year-to-date, Donaldson paid $90.3 million in dividends and repurchased 1.5% of its outstanding
shares for $114.0 million.

Updated Fiscal 2024 Outlook

Full-year EPS is forecast to be between $3.33 and $3.39, up from prior guidance of between
$3.24 and $3.32 and compared with fiscal 2023 GAAP and adjusted2 EPS of $2.90 and $3.04,
respectively. Sales are expected to increase between 4% and 6% year over year, with a pricing
benefit of approximately 2% and a negligible impact from currency translation.

Mobile sales are forecast to increase between 2% and 4% versus 2023. Off-Road sales and On-
Road sales are expected to decrease low double-digits and low single-digits, respectively due to
softening end-market demand and related reductions in global equipment production.
Aftermarket sales are forecast to grow mid-single digits, benefitting from market share gains and
destocking in the prior year period.

Industrial sales are expected to increase between 6% and 8% compared with prior year. IFS sales
are expected to increase mid-single digits as a result of sales momentum in dust collection and
Power Generation. Aerospace and Defense sales, driven by strong end-market conditions, are
expected to grow low double-digits.

Life Sciences sales are forecast to grow mid-teens year over year supported by growth across all
businesses including Food & Beverage, Bioprocessing Equipment and Consumables, and Disk
Drive.

2Fiscal 2023 adjusted results exclude $21.8 million of non-recurring charges largely related to the Company’s
organizational redesign as well as costs associated with exiting a lower-margin customer program. The tables
attached to this press release include a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures.

Operating margin is expected to be between 15.0% and 15.4% versus 14.0%, or 14.6% on an
adjusted basis, in 2023. Year-over-year gross margin improvement is forecast to offset an
increase in operating expenses, driven primarily by investments in the Life Sciences segment.

Interest expense is forecast to be approximately $22 million and other income is expected to be
between $15 million and $17 million. Donaldson projects a fiscal 2024 effective income tax rate
of between 23% and 24%.

Capital expenditures are forecast to be between $90 million and $105 million and free cash flow
conversion is expected to be between 95% and 105%. For the full year, Donaldson anticipates
repurchasing approximately 2% of its shares outstanding.

period local currency financial results using the prior period exchange rates and compares these adjusted amounts to its prior
period reported results. Amounts may not foot due to rounding.

Note: Although free cash flow, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted gross profit, adjusted operating expense, adjusted
operating income, adjusted net earnings and adjusted diluted EPS are not measures of financial performance under GAAP,
the Company believes they are useful in understanding its financial results. Free cash flow is a commonly used measure of a
company’s ability to generate cash in excess of its operating needs. EBITDA is a commonly used measure of operating
earnings less non-cash expenses. The adjusted basis presentation excludes the impact of certain matters not related to the
Company’s ongoing operations. Management believes that the adjusted basis presentation reflects management’s
performance in operating the Company and provides a meaningful representation of the performance of the Company’s core
business and is useful to understanding its financial results. A shortcoming of these financial measures is that they do not
reflect the Company’s actual results under GAAP. Management does not intend these items to be considered in isolation or
as a substitute for the related GAAP measures. Amounts may not foot due to rounding.
