BERWYN, Pa., April 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — AMETEK, Inc. (NYSE: AME) today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.

AMETEK’s first quarter 2026 sales were $1.93 billion, an 11% increase over the first quarter of 2025. On a GAAP basis, first quarter earnings were a record $1.74 per diluted share. Adjusted earnings in the quarter were $1.97 per diluted share, up 13% from the first quarter of 2025. Adjusted earnings adds back non-cash, after-tax, acquisition-related intangible amortization and integration costs of $0.23 per diluted share.

GAAP operating income was $514.9 million. Adjusted operating income increased 14% to $516.6 million and operating margins were 26.8% in the quarter, up 50 basis points from the prior year. A reconciliation of reported GAAP results to adjusted results is included in the financial tables accompanying this release and on the AMETEK website.

“AMETEK had an excellent start to the year. Strong organic sales growth, contributions from recent acquisitions, and outstanding operating performance led to double-digit earnings growth, record EBITDA and robust core margin expansion of 160 basis points,” stated David A. Zapico, AMETEK Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Additionally, end market demand remains strong and broad based, with record orders up 23% in the quarter resulting in a record backlog.”

Electronic Instruments Group (EIG)
EIG sales in the first quarter were $1.26 billion, an increase of 11% over the same period in 2025. On a GAAP basis, EIG’s first quarter operating income was $373.9 million. On an adjusted basis, EIG operating income was up 6% to $375.6 million.

“EIG delivered strong results in the first quarter with outstanding, broad-based orders growth,” commented Mr. Zapico. “Sales were also strong with double-digit growth driven by a combination of solid organic sales growth and contributions from recent acquisitions, and EIG’s disciplined operating performance drove core margins up 40 basis points to 31.4%.”

Electromechanical Group (EMG)
EMG sales in the first quarter were a record $663.9 million, up 13% from the first quarter of 2025. EMG’s first quarter operating income increased 33% to a record $170.8 million, and operating income margins were 25.7% in the quarter, up 380 basis points versus the prior year.

“EMG performed exceptionally well in the first quarter. Continued robust and broad-based organic sales growth resulted in outstanding profit growth and sizeable margin expansion,” noted Mr. Zapico.

Second Quarter and Full Year 2026 Outlook
“I am pleased with AMETEK’s results in the first quarter. Our businesses are performing very well and delivering exceptional results. AMETEK remains well positioned given our record backlog, momentum across attractive markets, and the proven strength and durability of the AMETEK Growth Model. Additionally, our balance sheet and strong cash flows provide us with meaningful capital to deploy on strategic acquisitions,” stated Mr. Zapico.

“For 2026, we now expect overall sales to be up high single digits compared to 2025. Adjusted earnings per diluted share are now expected to be in the range of $7.94 to $8.14, up 7% to 10% over the comparable basis for 2025. This is an increase from our prior guidance range of $7.87 to $8.07 per diluted share,” he added.

“For the second quarter of 2026, overall sales are expected to be up high single digits compared to the second quarter of 2025. Adjusted earnings in the quarter are anticipated to be in the range of $1.96 to $2.00 per share, up 10% to 12% compared to the second quarter of 2025,” concluded Mr. Zapico.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

The Company supplements its consolidated financial statements presented on a U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) basis with certain non-GAAP financial information to provide investors with greater insight, increased transparency and allow for a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. Reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures are included in the accompanying financial tables. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a replacement for, or superior to, the comparable GAAP measure, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

The non-GAAP financial measures referenced in this press release include adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, and adjusted earnings per share. These measures are adjusted to exclude items that management does not consider indicative of AMETEK’s ongoing operational performance, such as after-tax acquisition-related intangible amortization and one-time acquisition-related costs (including transaction related costs, purchase accounting adjustments, and integration related costs).

In providing forward-looking guidance for quarterly and full-year GAAP and non-GAAP measures, the Company has not included adjustments, such as acquisition-related costs, whose timing and/or magnitude are contingent on future events.

The Company believes that these measures provide useful information to investors by reflecting additional ways of viewing AMETEK’s operations that, when reconciled to the comparable GAAP measure, helps our investors to better understand the long-term profitability trends of our business, and facilitates easier comparisons of our profitability to prior and future periods and to our peers.
