Management Commentary

“Emerson’s outstanding second quarter results were driven by strong end market demand and excellent operational execution from our global teams,” said Emerson President and Chief Executive Officer Lal Karsanbhai. “Underlying sales growth, operational leverage and earnings exceeded our expectations, a testament to the strength of our people, technology, and the Emerson Management System.”

“As we accelerate our growth as a leading automation company, we continue to execute on our strategic vision, including our recent definitive agreement to purchase NI, a leader in test and measurement automation,” Karsanbhai continued. “NI’s best-in-class technology and software will accelerate Emerson’s progress toward a cohesive, higher growth and higher margin automation portfolio, diversifying Emerson into attractive discrete markets.”

2023 Outlook

The following tables summarize the fiscal year 2023 guidance framework for continuing operations5. The 2023 outlook includes $2 billion returned to shareholders through share repurchases completed in the first quarter and approximately $1.2 billion of dividend payments. Guidance figures are approximate.

1 

Underlying orders does not include AspenTech.

2

Underlying sales excludes the impact of currency translation, and acquisitions and divestitures including heritage AspenTech and Emerson’s businesses contributed to AspenTech.

3 

Adjusted segment EBITA represents segment earnings less restructuring and intangibles amortization expense.

4 

Adjusted EPS excludes restructuring, NI investment gains, acquisition/divestiture costs, write-offs associated with Emerson’s announced Russia exit, an AspenTech Micromine purchase price hedge and intangibles amortization expense.

5

The Company’s 2023 continuing operations after the Climate Technologies divestiture (assumed to close May 31, 2023 for the purposes of guidance) will include interest income from the $2.25 billion note receivable from Climate Technologies and reflect the 45% common equity ownership in the income, or loss, of Climate Technologies. Emerson will not control Climate Technologies post-closing and is therefore unable to estimate the amount of its 45% share of Climate Technologies’ post-close results and this has been excluded from guidance. The effect of Emerson’s 45% share of Climate Technologies is expected to be immaterial to post-closing cash flows. On a discontinued operations GAAP basis, Emerson expects third quarter EPS of $14 - $16 and fiscal 2023 EPS of $18 - $20.

Conference Call

Today, beginning at 7:00 a.m. Central Time / 8:00 a.m. Eastern Time, Emerson management will discuss the second quarter results during an investor conference call. Participants can access a live webcast available at www.emerson.com/investors at the time of the call. A replay of the call will be available for 90 days. Conference call slides will be posted in advance of the call on the company website.

EMERSON AND SUBSIDIARIES

ASPENTECH CONTRIBUTION TO EMERSON RESULTS SUPPLEMENTAL

(AMOUNTS IN MILLIONS EXCEPT PER SHARE, UNAUDITED)

The following tables reconcile the financial results of AspenTech reported to its shareholders with the amounts included in Emerson’s consolidated financial results. Emerson owns 55 percent of AspenTech, a separately traded public company (NASDAQ: AZPN), and consolidates AspenTech in its financial results. The 45 percent non-controlling interest in AspenTech is removed from Emerson’s net earnings common stockholders through the non-controlling interest line item. AspenTech is also one of Emerson’s segments and its GAAP segment earnings is reconciled below to its consolidated impact to clarify that certain items are reported outside of its segment earnings within Emerson corporate, including interest income, stock compensation and the Micromine purchase price hedge.
