The Ventev business has been added to the Electrical Solutions segment. We have recognized intangible assets of $34.5 million and goodwill of $40.0 million as a result of the acquisition. The $34.5 million of intangible assets consists primarily of customer relationships and trade names and will be amortized over a weighted average period of approximately 17 years.

In the third quarter of 2025, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding equity of Nicor, Inc., a Texas corporation ("Nicor") for approximately $56 million, net of cash acquired, subject to customary purchase price adjustments. Nicor designs and manufactures water metering endpoint solutions to integrate and optimize advanced metering infrastructure networks. Such solutions include polymer meter box lids and covers.

The $18.6 million of intangible assets consists primarily of customer relationships and a trade name and will be amortized over a weighted average period of approximately 18 years.

On October 1, 2025, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding equity of Power Rose Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Power Rose" and together with its subsidiaries, "DMC Power") for approximately $829 million, net of cash acquired, subject to customary purchase price adjustments. DMC Power is a provider of swaged connection systems and tooling for utility substation and transmission markets. DMC Power has been added to the Utility Solutions segment. We have recognized intangible assets of $364.0 million and goodwill of $468.9 million as a result of the acquisition. The $364.0 million of intangible assets consists primarily of $290.0 million of customer relationships, with the remaining $74.0 million consisting of developed technology, trade names and backlog. The intangible assets will be amortized over a weighted average period of approximately 21 years.

We determined the preliminary fair values of the customer relationships intangible assets using an multi-period excess earnings method. The significant assumptions used in determining the preliminary fair values of the customer relationships intangible assets included revenue growth rates, gross margin, attrition rate, and discount rate. We determined the preliminary fair values of the developed technology, trade name and backlog intangible assets using an income approach. Accordingly, the fair value measurement of the customer relationships intangible assets, developed technology, trade name, and backlog intangible assets are classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

These business acquisitions have been accounted for as business combinations and have resulted in the recognition of goodwill. The goodwill relates to a number of factors implied in the purchase price, including the future earnings and cash flow potential of the business as well as the complementary strategic fit and resulting synergies that such business acquisition brings to the Company’s existing operations. The goodwill related to the Ventev, Nicor and DMC Power acquisitions is not deductible for tax purposes.

The following table presents the preliminary determination of the fair values of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed from the Company's 2025 acquisitions of Ventev, Nicor and DMC Power. The final determination of the fair value of certain assets and liabilities will be completed within the applicable one year measurement period as required by FASB ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations.” As the Company finalizes the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, additional purchase price adjustments may be recorded during the measurement period. Fair value estimates are based on a complex series of judgments about future events and uncertainties and rely heavily on estimates and assumptions. The judgments used to determine the estimated fair value assigned to each class of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as well as asset lives, can materially impact the Company's results of operations and financial position. The finalization of the purchase accounting assessment may result in a change in the valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and may have a material impact on the Company's results of operations and financial position.

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the results of operations of the acquired businesses from their respective dates of acquisition.

Customer relationships and developed technology intangible assets acquired are amortized using an accelerated method that reflects the pattern in which economic benefits of the intangible assets are consumed and results in higher amortization in the earlier years of the asset’s useful life.

Cash used for the acquisition of businesses, net of cash acquired as reported in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the year ended December 31, 2023 is $1,211.7 million and net working capital settlements relating to acquisitions completed in previous years resulted in $5.9 million of cash receipts for the year ended December 31, 2024. These amounts exclude approximately $7.2 million of deferred purchase price related to the Balestro acquisition.

The results of operations for the 2023 acquisitions have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the period subsequent to the completion of the acquisitions on their respective dates. Acquisitions contributed sales of approximately $41.4 million and operating income of approximately $0.0 million, before any transaction costs described below, for the period from the completion of the acquisitions through December 31, 2023.

The following unaudited supplemental pro-forma information presents consolidated results as if the acquisitions had been completed on January 1, 2022. Following that approach, for the purpose of the pro-forma results presented in the tables below, certain costs incurred by the Company during 2023 have been reclassified into the pro-forma 2022 period. Those reclassifications primarily include the following, which represent the amount of increase or (decrease) to reported results to arrive at the pro-forma results (in millions, except per share amounts).

(2) Intangible amortization and inventory step up amortization incurred in 2023 have been reclassified into the comparable pro-forma 2022 period and increased to reflect the assumption the transactions were completed on January 1, 2022. The pro-forma 2023 period includes the intangible amortization that would be incurred assuming that the transactions had been completed on January 1, 2022.

(3) Interest expense incurred in 2023, reflecting amounts incurred from the date of the acquisitions, has been reclassified into the pro-forma 2022 period and increased to reflect the assumption that the transactions were completed on January 1, 2022. The pro-forma 2023 period includes the interest expense that would have been incurred assuming the transactions had been completed on January 1, 2022.

The unaudited supplemental pro-forma financial information does not reflect the actual performance of the 2023 acquisitions in the periods presented and does not reflect the potential realization of cost savings relating to the integration of the acquisitions with Hubbell. Further, the pro-forma data should not be considered indicative of the results that would have occurred if the acquisitions and related financing had been consummated on January 1, 2022, nor are they indicative of future results.

In December 2023, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell its residential lighting business for a cash purchase price of $131 million, subject to customary adjustments.
