In context

“ull year. We continue to see robust adoption of our software and expect ACV to grow 10% plus in 2026. Intelligent Devices is projected to grow 2% to 3% in Q2 and 4% for the full year, with stable MRO led by strength in North America. Second-half growth is supported by backlog phasing and the timing of project shipments. Safety and Productivity is expected to grow 1% to 2% in Q2 and 2% to 3% for the full year. Growth is driven by North American markets and electric and utility strength, but offset by continuing weakness in European markets. Overall, Emerson Electric Co. expects to grow 1% to 2% in Q2 and approximately 4% for the full year. The second-half growth acceleration to approximately 6% is supported by our strong orders momentum and lapping of the software contract renewal dynamic. Excluding the impact of software contract renewals, Emerson Electric Co.'s growth rate is expected to be 3% to 4% for Q2 and 5% for the full year. Please turn to Slide 13 for additional detail on adjusted segment EBITDA margin and EPS guidance. For Q2 2026, we expect operations to contribute around $0.05 to EPS with another $0.09 from non-operating items, primarily off FX, to offset a $0.09 impact from the software contract renewal dynamic. As a reminder, Q2 2025 adjusted EPS of $1.48 benefited from about $0.04 from the Total Energy's project that we discussed in our Q2 2025 earnings call. The lower volume from renewals in the Total Energy Energies deal impacts Emerson Electric Co.'s adjusted segment EBITDA margin by approximately 150 basis points compared to Q2 2025. We are guiding our Q2 2026 adjusted EPS at $1.5 to $1.55. For the full year, we are raising the bottom of our EPS guide by $0.05, reflecting the good performance in Q1”
