Computed values are grepcent-computed from the verified facts above and may differ from ratios the company itself reports. Free cash flow = operating cash flow − capital expenditures. Net margin = net income ÷ revenue. Operating margin = operating income ÷ revenue. Revenue YoY = FY2025 revenue ÷ FY2024 revenue − 1 (consecutive fiscal years only). ROE = net income ÷ period-end stockholders' equity.

A higher percentile means a higher value of the ratio, not a better company. Ratios with fewer than 8 reporting peers are omitted. Latest reported values per company; fiscal periods may differ. Descriptive arithmetic - not a score, rating, or ranking.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Fortive Corporation (“Fortive,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) innovates essential technologies to keep our world safe and productive. Our strategic segments - Intelligent Operating Solutions (“IOS”) and Advanced Healthcare Solutions (“AHS”) - include iconic inventor brands with leading positions in their markets. Our businesses design, develop, manufacture, and market products, software, and services, building upon leading brand names, innovative technologies, and strong market positions. Our research and development, manufacturing, sales, distribution, service, and administrative facilities are located in approximately 50 countries around the world.

Precision Technologies Separation

On June 28, 2025 (the “Distribution Date”), the Company completed the separation (the “Separation” or the “PT Separation”) of its former Precision Technologies segment by distributing to Fortive shareholders on a pro rata basis all of the issued and outstanding common stock of Ralliant Corporation (“Ralliant”), the entity incorporated to hold the PT businesses. The accounting requirements for reporting Ralliant as a discontinued operation were met when the Separation was completed. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements for all periods presented reflect this business as a discontinued operation. Unless otherwise indicated, all amounts in this quarterly report refer to continuing operations. Refer to Note 2 for additional information.

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is designed to provide a reader of our financial statements with a narrative from the perspective of management. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the MD&A and consolidated financial statements included in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Our MD&A is divided into five sections:

•Information Relating to Forward-Looking Statements

•Overview

•Results of Operations

•Liquidity and Capital Resources

•Critical Accounting Estimates

INFORMATION RELATING TO FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements included or incorporated by reference in this quarterly report, in other documents we file with or furnish to the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), in our press releases, webcasts, conference calls, materials delivered to shareholders and other communications, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the United States federal securities laws. All statements other than historical factual information are forward-looking statements, including without limitation statements regarding: projections of revenue, expenses, profit, profit margins, tax rates, tax provisions, cash flows, pension and benefit obligations and funding requirements, our liquidity position or other financial measures; impact of government actions, including tariffs and tariff refunds, other trade policies, government spending and tax laws; management’s plans and strategies for future operations, including statements relating to anticipated operating performance, capital allocation, financing, cost reductions, restructuring activities, new product and service developments, competitive strengths or market position, acquisitions, divestitures, strategic opportunities, financing, stock repurchases, and dividends; growth, declines and other trends in markets we sell into, including the expected impact of trade and tariff policies; the anticipated impacts and benefits of the completed separation of Ralliant; new or modified laws, regulations and accounting pronouncements; outstanding claims, legal proceedings, tax audits and assessments and other contingent liabilities; foreign currency exchange rates and fluctuations in those rates; impact of changes to tax laws; general economic and capital markets conditions, including expected impact of inflation or interest rate changes; impact of geopolitical events and other hostilities; the timing of any of the foregoing; assumptions underlying any of the foregoing; and any other statements that address events or developments that we intend or believe will or may occur in the future. Terminology, such as “believe,” “anticipate,” “should,” “could,” “intend,” “will,” “plan,” “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “target,” “may,” “possible,” “potential,” “forecast” and “positioned” and similar references to future periods, are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements are accompanied by such words.

Forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and assessments made by our management in light of their experience and perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments, and other factors they believe to be appropriate. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and actual results may differ materially from

•Adverse changes in our relationships with, or the financial condition, performance, purchasing patterns, or inventory levels of, key distributors and other channel partners could adversely affect our financial results.

•Work stoppages, works council campaigns, and other labor disputes could adversely impact our productivity and results of operations.

•If we suffer loss to our facilities, supply chains, distribution systems, or information technology systems due to catastrophe or other events, our operations could be seriously harmed.

•If we do not or cannot adequately protect our intellectual property, or if third parties infringe our intellectual property rights, we may suffer competitive injury or expend significant resources enforcing our rights.

•Third parties may claim that we are infringing or misappropriating their intellectual property rights and we could suffer significant litigation expenses, losses, or licensing expenses or be prevented from selling products or services.

•Our restructuring activities could have long-term adverse effects on our business.

•We are subject to a variety of litigation and other legal and regulatory proceedings in the course of our business that could adversely affect our financial results.

•Climate change, or legal or regulatory measures to address climate change, may negatively affect us.

This MD&A is designed to provide a reader of our financial statements with a narrative from the perspective of management. Our MD&A is divided into seven sections:

•Basis of Presentation

•Overview

•Critical Accounting Estimates

•New Accounting Standards

OVERVIEW

General

Fortive is a multinational business with global operations with approximately 44% of our sales derived from customers outside the United States in 2025. As a company with global operations, our businesses are affected by worldwide, regional, and industry-specific economic, trade policies, fiscal policies, regulatory, and political factors. Our geographic and industry diversity, as well as the range of products, software, and services we offer, typically help limit the impact of any one industry or the economy of any single country, except for the United States, on our operating results. Given the broad range of products manufactured, software and services provided, and geographies served, we do not use any indices other than general economic trends to predict the overall outlook for the Company. Our individual businesses monitor key competitors and customers, including their sales, to the extent possible, to gauge relative performance and the outlook for the future.

As a result of our geographic and industry diversity, we face a variety of opportunities and challenges, including technological development in most of the markets we serve, the expansion and evolution of opportunities in growing markets, trends and costs associated with a global labor force, trade policies, and consolidation of our competitors. We operate in a highly competitive business environment in most markets, and our long-term growth and profitability will depend, in particular, on our ability to expand our business across geographies and market segments, identify, consummate, and integrate appropriate acquisitions, develop innovative and differentiated new products, services, and software, expand and improve the effectiveness of our sales force, continue to reduce costs and improve operating efficiency and quality, attract relevant talent and retain, grow, and empower our talented workforce, and effectively address the demands of an increasingly regulated environment. We are making significant investments, organically and through acquisitions, to address technological change in the markets we serve and to improve our manufacturing, research and development, and customer-facing resources in order to be responsive to our customers throughout the world.

Non-GAAP Measures

In this report, references to sales from existing businesses (“core revenue”) refer to sales from operations calculated according to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) but excluding (1) the impact from acquired and divested businesses and (2) the impact of foreign currency translation. References to sales attributable to acquisitions or acquired businesses refer to GAAP sales from acquired businesses recorded prior to the first anniversary of the acquisition, less the amount of sales attributable to certain businesses or product lines that have been divested, or, at the time of reporting, are pending divestiture, but are not, and will not be, considered discontinued operations prior to the first anniversary of the divestiture. The portion of sales attributable to the impact of currency translation is calculated as the difference between (a) the period-to-period change in sales (excluding sales impact from acquired businesses) and (b) the period-to-period change in sales

(excluding sales impact from acquired businesses) after applying the current period foreign exchange rates to the prior year period. Core revenue should be considered in addition to, and not as a replacement for or superior to, sales, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Management believes that reporting the non-GAAP financial measure of core revenue provides useful information to investors by helping identify underlying growth trends in our business and facilitating comparisons of our sales performance with our performance in prior and future periods and to our peers. We exclude the effect of acquisition and divestiture related items because the nature, size, and number of such transactions can vary dramatically from period to period and between us and our peers. We exclude the effect of currency translation from core revenue because the impact of currency translation is not under management’s control and is subject to volatility. Management believes the exclusion of the effect of acquisitions and divestitures and currency translation may facilitate the assessment of underlying business trends and may assist in comparisons of long-term performance. References to core sales growth refer to the impact of both price and unit sales.

Business Trends

Our financial outlook is subject to various assumptions and risks, including but not limited to: ongoing geopolitical events; global economic and consumer trends and sentiments; monetary policies; inflationary pressures on expenses and pricing; uncertainties in governmental policies on international trade, regulations, sanctions, and healthcare; operational challenges from existing, new, or increased tariffs, in some cases, subsequent rollbacks or suspensions; foreign exchange rate volatility, including the impact of unhedged foreign currency debts; reduction in U.S. government spending due to H.R.1, also known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”); and overall fiscal policies, including investment and taxation policy initiatives being considered in the U.S.; the incremental impacts of the Pillar Two initiative from the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”); and the impact from the Separation.

In addition, our financial outlook is subject to the impact of the recent ruling by the Supreme Court of the United States invalidating certain tariffs previously imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act ("the IEEPA Ruling"), including the impact on operational and transaction costs, any responsive legislative or executive action seeking to reimpose similar tariffs, our ability to seek and obtain refunds for previously paid tariffs that have been subsequently invalidated, expectations or actions of customers, suppliers and other distribution or supply chain partners on pricing or costs as a result of the IEEPA Ruling, and responsive actions from other countries, including with respect to counter tariffs that had been imposed or trade agreements that had been adopted in response to tariffs that have been subsequently invalidated by the IEEPA Ruling.

We continue to monitor the conditions above and deploy the Fortive Business System (“FBS”), including tools and processes to leverage existing sourcing strategies and optimize production and logistics to actively manage these challenges and utilize pricing, cost and productivity actions and other countermeasures designed to offset the aforementioned dynamics.

Sales growth in 2025 was driven by favorable pricing of 2.2%, partially offset by a volume decline of 0.6%. Sales growth in 2024 was driven by favorable pricing of 2.9% and a volume increase of 1.4%.

Geographically, core revenue growth in 2025 was driven primarily by strengthening demand in North America, led by the IOS segment, partially offset by modest declines in Europe. Core revenue growth in 2024 was driven by modest to moderate growth across all regions, including North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (“EMEA”), Latin America (“LATAM”), and Asia-Pacific (“APAC”).

Operating Profit Margins

2025 vs. 2024

Operating profit margin was 17.3% in 2025, compared to 17.6% in 2024, resulting in a decrease of 30 basis points due to:

•The year-over-year increase from favorable pricing across the segments and benefits from productivity measures and FBS initiatives, partially offset by volume decline and higher employee compensation in both segments; additionally, within the year, the unfavorable impact from tariffs was mitigated by countermeasures — favorable 105 basis points

•The year-over-year effect of all other items, including -100 basis points primarily from incremental stock-based compensation costs related to the Separation, -55 basis points in discrete restructuring charges, partially offset by +20 basis points from amortization expense for existing businesses — unfavorable 135 basis points

2024 vs. 2023

Operating profit margin was 17.6% 2024, compared to 14.7% in 2023, resulting in an increase of 290 basis points due to:

•The year-over-year increase in price and volume from existing businesses and benefits from productivity measures were partially offset by higher employee compensation, growth investments and the impact of unfavorable changes in foreign exchange rates — favorable 170 basis points

•The year-over-year effect of all other items, including +70 basis points in discrete restructuring charges, +55 basis points from amortization expense associated with existing businesses and impairment of intangible assets in 2023, offset by -5 basis points from net effects of acquired businesses — favorable 120 basis points
