NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 - Organization and Basis of Presentation
Crane NXT, Co. is a leading provider of trusted technology solutions to secure, detect, and authenticate our customers’ most valuable assets. We are comprised of two reporting segments: Crane Payment Innovations (“CPI”) and Security and Authentication Technologies (“SAT”). Our primary end markets include governments, brands, financial institutions and a wide range of consumer related end markets including convenience merchandising (vending), retail and gaming. See Note 4, “Segment Results” for the relative size of these segments in relation to the total company (both net sales and total assets).
References herein to “Crane NXT,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to Crane NXT, Co. and its subsidiaries, including when Crane NXT, Co. was named “Crane Holdings, Co.” unless the context implies otherwise. References herein to “Holdings” refer to Crane Holdings, Co. and its subsidiaries prior to the consummation of the Separation unless the context implies otherwise.
Separation
On April 3, 2023, Holdings was separated (the “Separation”) into two independent, publicly-traded companies, Crane NXT, Co. and Crane Company (“SpinCo”), through a pro-rata distribution (the “Distribution”) of all the issued and outstanding common stock of SpinCo to the stockholders of Holdings. As part of the Separation, we entered into definitive agreements with SpinCo, including a Tax Matters Agreement, which set forth the terms and conditions of the Separation and provided a framework for our relationship with SpinCo following the Separation. See Note 9, “Income Taxes” for more details on the Tax Matters Agreement.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial reporting and, therefore, reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Crane NXT Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements and Notes to Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, previously filed on Form 10-K on February 20, 2025.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures which intends to improve the transparency of income tax disclosures. The new standard requires public entities to provide greater disaggregation in their rate reconciliation, including new requirements to present reconciling items on a gross basis within specified categories, to disclose both percentages and dollar amounts, and to disaggregate individual reconciling items by jurisdiction and nature when the effect of the items meets a quantitative threshold. The guidance also includes new requirements to provide users of the financial statements with better information on future cash flow prospects. The standard is effective for all public entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, on a prospective basis, with a retrospective option, and early adoption permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued. We do not expect the new standard to have a material impact on our disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses which intends to improve the disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses and address requests from investors for more detailed information about the types of expenses (including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and depletion) in commonly presented expense captions (such as cost of sales, SG&A, and research and development). The standard requires disclosure of these expenses on an interim and annual basis in the notes to the financial statements. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this standard on its Financial Statements and Disclosures.
11
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. The update eliminates the previous project stage model and introduces a “probable-to-complete” threshold for capitalization. It also consolidates guidance for website development costs under Subtopic 350-40. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this standard on its Financial Statements and Disclosures.
The Company considered the applicability and impact of other Accounting Standards Updates issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and determined them to be either not applicable or are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, Balance Sheets and Cash Flows.
Note 2 - Related Parties
Note 3 - Acquisitions
Antares Vision Acquisition
On September 12, 2025, Crane NXT entered into definitive agreements to acquire Antares Vision S.p.A. (“Antares Vision”), a publicly traded Italian joint stock company listed on the Italian stock exchange, through a phased transaction.
In the initial phase, Crane NXT will acquire 32.5 % of Antares Vision’s outstanding shares from Regolo S.p.A. and Sargas S.r.l. at a price of €5.00 per share, for total consideration of approximately €120 million pursuant to the terms of the executed Sale and Purchase Agreements. Following this initial investment, Crane NXT intends to initiate a mandatory tender offer under applicable Italian law to acquire the remaining publicly traded shares at the same per-share price. Upon completion of the mandatory tender offer Crane NXT will implement steps aimed at delisting Antares Vision and will acquire the remaining stake owned by Regolo S.p.A.. As a result of the transaction, Antares Vision will become a subsidiary of Crane NXT.
Antares Vision is a global provider of inspection and detection systems that ensure product safety and quality control. Antares Vision also provides track and trace software solutions that help prevent counterfeiting and provides visibility of products throughout the supply chain. The transaction advances Crane NXT’s strategy to provide trusted technology solutions that secure, detect and authenticate its customers’ most valuable assets, and expands the Company’s portfolio in growing end markets, including Life Sciences and Food and Beverage.
The total enterprise value of Antares Vision, inclusive of equity and net debt, is approximately €445 million. The first phase of the transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2025 with the final phase of the transaction anticipated in the first half of 2026, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals. Crane NXT has access to the Bridge Facility (as described in Note 13, “Financing”) to fund the acquisition until permanent financing arrangements are completed.
De La Rue Acquisition
On May 1, 2025, we acquired De La Rue Authentication Solutions (“DLR”) for a base purchase price of £300 million on a cash-free and debt-free basis, subject to customary purchase price adjustments. The amount paid, net of cash acquired and working capital adjustments, was $394.0 million. We utilized a $400.4 million delayed draw term loan (as defined in Note 13, “Financing”) to fund the acquisition. In September 2025, we received $2.9 million related to the final working capital adjustment of the DLR acquisition, resulting in net cash paid of $391.1 million.
DLR is a leading global provider of digital and physical security and authentication technologies to governments and brands, and expands our portfolio of authentication solutions.
DLR is part of a joint venture (the “Joint Venture”) that manufactures and sells tax stamps for the government of Ghana. DLR owns 49% of the share capital but maintains control of the Joint Venture through board governance rights. As such, we have consolidated the Joint Venture and recorded a noncontrolling interest in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Allocation of Consideration Transferred to Net Assets Acquired
The following amounts represent the preliminary determination of the fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed from our acquisition of DLR, pending the finalization of certain tangible assets and liabilities to be completed within the measurement period as required by ASC Topic 805 “Business Combination” (“ASC 805”), and determination of post-closing and final working capital adjustments.
Net assets acquired (in millions) | ||||||||
| Accounts receivable, net | $ | |||||||
| Inventories, net | ||||||||

| Total assets acquired | $ | |||||||
| Total current liabilities | $ | |||||||
| Other liabilities | ||||||||
| Total assumed liabilities | $ | |||||||
| Net assets acquired | $ | |||||||
The amount allocated to goodwill reflects expected sales synergies, manufacturing efficiency and research and development. Goodwill from this acquisition is not deductible for tax purposes.
The amounts allocated to acquired intangible assets, and their associated weighted-average useful lives which were determined based on the period in which the assets are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to our future cash flows, consist of the following:
| Intangible Assets (in millions) | Intangible Fair Value | Weighted Average Life (in years) | |||||||||
| Customer relationships | $ | ||||||||||
| Developed technology | |||||||||||
| Backlog | |||||||||||
| Total acquired intangible assets | $ | ||||||||||
The fair values of the customer relationships and backlog intangible assets were determined by using an “income approach”, which is a commonly accepted valuation approach. Under this approach, the net earnings attributable to the asset or liability being measured are isolated using the discounted projected net cash flows. These projected cash flows are isolated from the projected cash flows of the combined asset group over the remaining economic life of the intangible asset or liability being measured. Both the amount and the duration of the cash flows are considered from a market participant perspective. The Company’s estimates of market participant net cash flows considered historical and projected pricing, operational performance including market participant synergies, aftermarket retention, product life cycles, material and labor pricing, and other relevant customer, contractual and market factors. Where appropriate, the net cash flows were adjusted to reflect the potential attrition of existing customers in the future, as existing customers are expected to decline over time. The attrition-adjusted future cash flows are then discounted to present value using an appropriate discount rate. The customer relationship is being amortized on a straight-line basis (which approximates the economic pattern of benefits) over the estimated economic life of 12 to 21 years.
The fair values of the developed technology intangible assets were determined by the relief-from-royalty approach. Similarly, this approach is based on the assumption that in lieu of ownership, a company would be willing to pay a royalty in order to exploit the related benefits of the technology. Therefore, a portion of DLR’s earnings, equal to the after-tax royalty that would have been paid for the use of the technology, can be attributed to the Company’s ownership of the technology. The technology assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis (which approximates the economic pattern of benefits) over the estimated economic life of 5 years.

OpSec Acquisition
On May 3, 2024, we acquired OpSec Security (“OpSec”) for a base purchase price of $270 million on a cash-free and debt-free basis. The amount paid, net of cash acquired and working capital adjustments, was $268.4 million. We utilized $210.0 million from our Revolving Facility (as defined in Note 13, “Financing”) and cash on hand to fund the acquisition.
OpSec provides authentication solutions, brand and digital content protection serving various commercial brands, government agencies and financial institutions.
Allocation of Consideration Transferred to Net Assets Acquired
The following amounts represent the determination of the fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed from our acquisition of OpSec. The fair value of certain assets and liabilities has been completed as required by ASC 805.
Net assets acquired (in millions) | ||||||||
| Total current assets | $ | |||||||

| Total current liabilities | $ | |||||||
| Other liabilities | ||||||||
| Total assumed liabilities | $ | |||||||
| Net assets acquired | $ | |||||||
The amount allocated to other assumed liabilities includes a contingent liability of $1.5 million related to a prior OpSec acquisition. The amount payable is contingent upon achievement of specific revenue targets and is capped at $2.2 million. The contingency conditions expire at the end of 2026, at which point if the contingency conditions have not been met, no payment will occur. The contingent liability is measured at fair value. See Note 14, “Fair Value Measurements” for further details.
The amount allocated to goodwill reflects expected sales synergies, manufacturing efficiency and research and development. Goodwill from this acquisition is not deductible for tax purposes.
The amounts allocated to acquired intangible assets, and their associated weighted-average useful lives which were determined based on the period in which the assets are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to our future cash flows, consist of the following:

Supplemental Pro Forma Data
DLR results of operations have been included in our financial statements for the period subsequent to the completion of the acquisition on May 1, 2025. OpSec results of operations have been included in our financial statements for the period subsequent to the completion of the acquisition on May 3, 2024.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
During the period since acquisition, DLR contributed net sales of $28.3 million and $45.8 million for the three-and-nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, resulting in operating loss of $3.1 million and $9.4 million for the three-and-nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. The operating loss was driven by acquisition related amortization, fair value step-up and transaction costs.
The following unaudited pro forma consolidated and combined information assumes that the DLR acquisition was completed on January 1, 2024 and the OpSec acquisition was completed on January 1, 2023.

Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities
Contract assets represent unbilled amounts that typically arise from contracts for customized products or contracts for products sold directly to the U.S. government or indirectly to the U.S. government through subcontracts, and certain international government contracts, where revenue recognized using the cost-to-cost method exceeds the amount billed to the customer. Contract assets are assessed for impairment and recorded at their net realizable value. Contract liabilities represent advance payments from customers. Revenue related to contract liabilities is recognized when control is transferred to the customer. We report contract assets, which are included within “Other current assets”, current contract liabilities, which are included within “Accrued liabilities” and long-term contract liabilities, which are included within “Other liabilities” on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, on a contract-by-contract net basis at the end of each reporting period. Net contract assets and contract liabilities consisted of the following:

Note 6 - Earnings Per Share
Our basic earnings per share calculations are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive securities include outstanding stock options, restricted share units, deferred stock units and performance-based restricted share units. The effect of potentially dilutive securities is reflected in diluted earnings per common share by application of the treasury method. Diluted earnings per share gives effect to all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period.

Note 9 - Income Taxes
Effective Tax Rates
Our quarterly provision for income taxes is measured using an annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items within the periods presented.
Our effective tax rates are as follows:
| Three Months Ended September 30, | Nine Months Ended September 30, | |||||||||||||||||||
| 2025 | 2024 | 2025 | 2024 | |||||||||||||||||
| Effective Tax Rate | ||||||||||||||||||||
The difference of our effective tax rate to the prior year comparable period for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 is primarily due to the mix of non-U.S. earnings.
Our effective tax rate for the three-and-nine months ended September 30, 2025 is higher than the statutory U.S. federal tax rate of 21% primarily due to the mix of non-U.S. earnings.
On July 4, 2025, the U.S. government enacted The One Big Beautiful Bill Act of 2025 which includes, among other provisions, changes to the U.S. corporate income tax system including but not limited to the allowance of immediate expensing of qualifying research and development expenses and permanent extensions of certain provisions within the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Based on the Company’s initial evaluation of the provisions, the Company does not expect these tax law changes to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements; however, the Company will continue to evaluate potential impacts in future periods based on its facts and circumstances and as further guidance becomes available.
The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) has proposed a global minimum tax of 15% of reported profits (“Pillar 2”) that has been agreed upon by over 140 member jurisdictions including the United States. Pillar 2 addresses the risks associated with profit shifting to entities in low tax jurisdictions. We adopted Pillar 2 in 2024 and the anticipated impact of Pillar 2 on our income tax provision for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025 is approximately $2.4 million.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As part of the Separation, we entered into a Tax Matters Agreement with SpinCo. The agreement, among other things, governs our and SpinCo’s respective rights, responsibilities and obligations after the Separation with respect to tax liabilities and benefits (including any taxes imposed that are attributable to the failure of the Distribution and certain related transactions to qualify as a transaction that is tax-free for U.S. federal income tax purposes), tax attributes, the preparation and filing of tax returns, the control of audits and other tax proceedings and other matters regarding taxes. Although enforceable as between the parties, the Tax Matters Agreement will not be binding on the Internal Revenue Service or other tax authorities.
As of September 30, 2025, we had gross unrecognized tax benefits of $9.6 million included in “Other liabilities” in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Note 12 - Commitments and Contingencies
We regularly review the status of lawsuits, claims and proceedings that have been or may be asserted against us relating to the conduct of our business, including those pertaining to product liability, patent infringement, commercial, employment, employee benefits, environmental and stockholder matters. We record a provision for a liability for such matters when it is considered probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. These provisions, if any, are reviewed quarterly and adjusted as additional information becomes available. If either or both criteria are not met, we assess whether there is at least a reasonable possibility that a loss, or additional losses, may have been incurred. If there is a reasonable possibility that a loss or additional loss may have been incurred for such matters, we disclose the estimate of the amount of loss or range of loss, disclose that the amount is immaterial, or disclose that an estimate of loss cannot be made, as applicable. We believe that as of September 30, 2025, there was no reasonable possibility that a material loss, or any additional material losses, may have been incurred for such matters.

Credit Facilities - On March 17, 2023, we became party to a senior secured credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) which provides for a $500 million, five-year revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) and we entered into a $350 million, 3-year term loan facility (the “Term Facility”). Funding for both facilities became available in connection with the Separation.
On December 9, 2024, we entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement which increased the Revolving Facility by $200 million to an aggregate $700 million and provided a delayed draw term loan (the “Term Loan”) of £300 million. On the same day, proceeds from the Revolving Facility were used to repay the outstanding Term Facility.
Bridge Facility - In connection with the Antares Vision acquisition (see note 3 “Acquisition”), on September 15, 2025, the Company entered into a commitment letter for a senior secured 364-day bridge credit facility in the aggregate principal amount of $602 million (the “Bridge Facility”) and a backstop senior secured 364-day credit facility in the aggregate principal amount of $831 million (the “Backstop Facility”).
The Bridge Facility is available to fund the Antares Vision acquisition and related transactions until permanent financing is secured. If drawn, it will bear interest at Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) plus a margin of 175 basis points, with step-ups of 50 basis points every 90 days. The facility includes affirmative and negative covenants substantially consistent with the Company’s existing credit agreement, and a total net leverage ratio financial maintenance covenant of 5.50 to 1.00.
The Backstop Facility is available to refinance existing term and revolving loans under the Company’s current Credit Agreement if an amendment to permit the Bridge Facility is not obtained. The Backstop Facility has substantially similar terms to the Bridge Facility, with a portion available on a revolving basis.
In the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we drew down $384.5 million and repaid $413.5 million on our Revolving Facility to fund working capital requirements. We also drew down £300.0 million, or $400.4 million, on the Term Loan to fund the DLR acquisition and repaid $40.9 million.

Note 15 - Restructuring
Overview
2025 Restructuring - In the second and third quarters of 2025 we initiated restructuring actions as follows:
•We recorded $8.5 million of restructuring expense in the SAT segment, predominantly related to severance charges, associated with the integration of the DLR and OpSec businesses. We expect to substantially complete the restructuring program in 2025, with total costs expected to be in the range of $10 million to $15 million.
•We recorded $2.3 million of restructuring expense in the CPI segment, predominantly related to severance charges. We will continue to evaluate and align CPI’s cost structure with existing economic conditions which could result in additional actions.
2024 Restructuring - In the first and fourth quarters of 2024, in response to challenging industry conditions, we initiated workforce reductions in CPI, incurring $10.1 million of cumulative severance charges through September 30, 2025. We expect to substantially complete the restructuring program in 2025 and do not expect to incur significant additional costs.
2022 Restructuring - In the fourth quarter of 2022, in response to economic uncertainty, we initiated workforce reductions in CPI, incurring $6.7 million of cumulative restructuring charges through September 30, 2025, of which $5.8 million related to severance and $0.9 million related to other costs. This restructuring program has been completed.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains information about Crane NXT, Co., some of which includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are statements other than historical information or statements about our current condition. Investors can identify forward-looking statements by the use of terms such as “believes,” “contemplates,” “expects,” “may,” “could,” “should,” “would,” or “anticipates,” other similar phrases, or the negatives of these terms.
References herein to “Crane NXT,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to Crane NXT, Co. and its subsidiaries, including when Crane NXT, Co. was named “Crane Holdings, Co.” unless the context implies otherwise. References herein to “Holdings” refer to Crane Holdings, Co. and its subsidiaries prior to the consummation of the Separation unless the context implies otherwise.
On April 3, 2023, Holdings was separated (the “Separation”) into two independent, publicly-traded companies, Crane NXT, Co. and Crane Company (“SpinCo”) through a pro-rata distribution (the “Distribution”) of all the issued and outstanding common stock of SpinCo to the stockholders of Holdings.
References to "core sales” exclude currency effects and, where applicable, the first-year impacts of acquisitions and divestitures. Amounts in the following discussion are presented in millions, except employee, share and per share data, or unless otherwise stated. Management believes that non-GAAP financial measures that exclude these items provide investors with an alternative metric that can assist in identifying underlying growth trends in our business and facilitate comparison of our sales performance, for example, with prior and future periods that are complementary to GAAP metrics.
We have based the forward-looking statements relating to our operations on our current expectations, estimates and projections about us and the markets we serve. We caution investors that these statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties. In addition, we have based many of these forward-looking statements on assumptions about future events that may prove to be inaccurate. There are a number of other factors that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. Such factors also include, among others: the impact of tariffs and other trade measures; changes in global economic conditions (including inflationary pressures) and geopolitical risks, including macroeconomic fluctuations; demand for its products, which is variable and subject to factors beyond its control; risks associated with conducting a substantial portion of its business outside the U.S.; information systems and technology networks failures, breaches in data security, theft of personally identifiable and other information, and non-compliance with its contractual or other legal obligations regarding such information; being unable to identify or complete acquisitions, or to successfully integrate the businesses the Company acquires; fluctuation in the prices of, or disruption in its ability to source, components and raw materials, and delays in the distribution of its products; loss of personnel or being able to hire and retain additional personnel needed to sustain and grow its business as planned; being unable to successfully develop and introduce new products, which would limit its ability to grow and maintain its competitive position; governmental regulations and failure to comply with those regulations; the ability to protect its intellectual property; risks from litigation, claims and investigations, including those related to product liability and warranties, and employee, commercial, intellectual property and environmental matters; risks related to its ability to improve productivity, reduce costs and align manufacturing capacity with customer demand; significant competition in the Company's markets; additional tax expenses or exposures; adverse impacts from intangible asset impairment charges; inadequate or ineffective internal controls; and risks related to the Separation, including not obtaining the intended tax treatment of the Separation transaction, failure of Crane Company to perform under the various transaction agreements and actual or potential conflicts of interest with Crane Company; and other risks noted in reports that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, and subsequent reports and other documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect any future events or circumstances.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Recent Transactions
Credit Facilities
In the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we drew down $384.5 million and repaid $413.5 million on our Revolving Facility to fund working capital requirements. We also drew down £300.0 million, or $400.4 million, on the Term Loan to fund the DLR acquisition and repaid $40.9 million.
On September 15, 2025, we entered into a commitment for a senior secured 364-day Bridge Facility of $602 million and a Backstop Facility of $831 million. The Backstop Facility was in place until October 7, 2025 when the amendment to the Credit Agreement was ratified. The Bridge Facility is available to fund the Antares Vision acquisition and related transactions until permanent financing is secured.
Antares Vision Acquisition
On September 12, 2025, Crane NXT entered into definitive agreements to acquire Antares Vision, a publicly traded Italian joint stock company listed on the Italian stock exchange, through a phased transaction. The total enterprise value of Antares Vision, inclusive of equity and net debt, is approximately €445 million. The first phase of the transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2025 with the final phase of the transaction anticipated in the first half of 2026, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals.
Antares Vision is a global provider of inspection and detection systems that ensure product safety and quality control, as well as track and trace software solutions that help prevent counterfeiting and provides visibility of products throughout the supply chain. The acquisition advances our strategy and expands the Company’s portfolio in growing end markets, including Life Sciences and Food and Beverage.
DLR Acquisition
On May 1, 2025, we acquired De La Rue Authentication Solutions (“DLR”) for a base purchase price of £300 million. We utilized our Term Loan to fund the acquisition. DLR is a leading global provider of digital and physical security and authentication technologies to governments and brands, and expands our portfolio of authentication solutions.
DLR was combined with OpSec as “Crane Authentication” within the Security and Authentication Technologies segment upon close.
Restructuring
In the second and third quarter of 2025 we initiated restructuring actions as follows:
•We recorded $8.5 million of restructuring expense in the SAT segment, predominantly related to severance charges, associated with the integration of the DLR and OpSec businesses. We expect to substantially complete the restructuring program in 2025, with total costs expected to be in the range of $10 million to $15 million.
•We recorded $2.3 million of restructuring expense in the CPI segment, predominantly related to severance charges. We will continue to evaluate and align CPI’s cost structure with existing economic conditions which could result in additional actions.
Trade Policies and Regulations
We continue to monitor developments in global trade policies and tariff regulations. As of November 5, 2025, we expect to mitigate the majority of tariffs on operating profit with pricing and productivity initiatives. The related macroeconomic uncertainty is also affecting demand, primarily in our CPI vending business, which is driving lower sales volumes. See Item 1A, “Risk Factors” for more details.
Basis of Presentation
See Note 1, “Organization and Basis of Presentation” for more details on financial statement presentation basis.

Sales increased by $41.6 million, or 10.3%, to $445.1 million in 2025. The change in sales included:
•sales benefit from the DLR acquisition of $28.3 million, or 7.0%,
•favorable foreign currency translation of $7.6 million, or 1.9% driven primarily by the strengthening of the euro, British pound, Swedish krona and Japanese yen against the U.S. dollar, and
•core sales increase of $5.7 million, or 1.4%, driven primarily by our SAT segment, partially offset by lower volumes in CPI.
Cost of sales increased by $20.3 million, or 8.7%, to $252.5 million in 2025. The increase was driven primarily by the impact of acquisitions in SAT, higher material and other manufacturing costs, and unfavorable foreign currency translation, partially offset by productivity gains and the impact of lower volumes in CPI.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $10.9 million, or 11.3%, to $107.2 million in 2025. The increase was driven primarily by the impact of acquisitions in SAT and unfavorable foreign currency translation.
Operating profit increased by $6.9 million, or 9.2%, to $81.9 million in 2025. The increase was driven primarily by favorable pricing and productivity gains across both segments, partially offset by the impact of lower volumes in CPI and the dilutive impact of acquisitions. Restructuring charges were largely offset by cost-saving actions.
Our effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was lower than the prior year’s comparable period primarily due to the mix of non-U.S. earnings.

Operating profit decreased by $13.8 million, or 18.8%, to $59.7 million in 2025, reflecting the dilutive impact of the OpSec and DLR acquisitions due to acquisition related amortization and fair value step-up of $16.4 million, or 22.4%, higher manufacturing costs primarily due to the under absorption of manufacturing overhead, net of favorable pricing of $12.2 million, or 16.6%, restructuring charges of $8.5 million, or 11.6%, partially offset by productivity gains of $12.5 million, or 17.0%, the impact of higher volumes of $5.0 million, or 6.8% and favorable mix of $4.5 million, or 6.1%.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

| Net cash provided by (used for): | ||||||||||||||
| Operating activities | $ | 135.7 | $ | 133.0 | ||||||||||

| Increase (decrease) in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash | $ | 21.4 | $ | (53.2) | ||||||||||
Our operating philosophy is to deploy cash provided from operating activities, when appropriate, to provide value to stockholders by reinvesting in existing businesses, by making acquisitions that will strengthen and complement our portfolio; by divesting businesses that are no longer strategic or aligned with our portfolio and where such divestitures can generate capacity for strategic investments and initiatives that further optimize our portfolio; by paying dividends and repaying prepayable debt. At any given time, and from time to time, we may be evaluating one or more of these opportunities, although we cannot assure you if or when we will consummate any such transactions.
Our current cash balance, together with cash we expect to generate from future operations along with borrowings available under the Credit Agreement, is expected to be sufficient to finance our short- and long-term capital requirements.
In the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we drew down $384.5 million and repaid $413.5 million on our Revolving Facility to support working capital needs. We also drew down £300.0 million, or $400.4 million, on the Term Loan to fund the DLR acquisition and repaid $40.9 million.
Operating Activities
Cash provided by operating activities was $135.7 million in the first nine months of 2025, compared with $133.0 million in the comparable period last year. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily driven by lower working capital requirements.
Investing Activities
Cash used for investing activities primarily consists of cash used for capital expenditures and acquisitions. Capital expenditures are made primarily for increasing capacity, replacing equipment, supporting new product development, and improving information systems.
Cash used for investing activities was $422.7 million in the first nine months of 2025, compared with $304.4 million in the comparable period last year. The increase in cash used for investing activities was primarily driven by the payment for the acquisition of DLR.
Financing Activities
Cash provided by financing activities consists primarily of dividend payments to shareholders, repayments of indebtedness, and proceeds from our credit facilities.
Cash provided by financing activities was $293.3 million during the first nine months of 2025, compared with $115.8 million in the comparable period last year. The increase was primarily driven by higher net proceeds from the Term Loan used to fund the acquisition of DLR, partially offset by net payments on the Revolving Facility in the first nine month of 2025 compared to net proceeds from Revolving Facility during the same period in 2024.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
There have been no material changes in the information called for by this item since the disclosure in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
De La Rue Authentication (“DLR”) Acquisition. The Company completed the acquisition of DLR on May 1, 2025. The Company has not yet fully incorporated DLR’s internal controls and procedures into the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and will be completed within the time provided by the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC for a recently acquired business. As such, management excluded DLR from its assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2025. DLR constituted approximately 4% of the Company’s total assets, excluding the preliminary value of goodwill and purchased intangible assets, and approximately 6% of the Company’s total net sales as of and for the three months ended September 30, 2025.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Crane NXT’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of Crane NXT’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Crane NXT’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by Crane NXT in the reports that are filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that the information is accumulated and communicated to Crane NXT’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, Crane NXT’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these controls were effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. During the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2025, there have been no changes in Crane NXT’s internal control over financial reporting, identified in connection with our evaluation thereof, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

Dear Kim,
I am delighted to offer you the position of Senior Vice President, Chief People Officer of Crane NXT, Co. (the “Company”). Your offer is contingent upon the approval of all of the terms set forth herein (including the stipulated equity grants) by the Management Organization and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company.
This is a full-time position. In this position, you will report to me. Your targeted start date is October 1, 2025.
Compensation
Your annual base salary will be $430,000, subject to applicable deductions and withholdings. You will be paid bi-weekly in accordance with our standard payroll practices. You will be eligible for consideration for a merit increase in 2026.
Sign-On Bonus
I am pleased to offer you a sign-on bonus in the gross amount of $300,000, subject to all applicable payroll taxes and deductions, payable in two equal installments on the applicable pay date associated with (1) the date you commence employment and (2) April 1, 2026. If you voluntarily terminate your employment with the Company or the Company terminates your employment for cause within 3 years of your employment commencement date, you owe the entire sign-on bonus to the Company. You agree to make such payment within 30 days of your separation. You specifically authorize the Company to deduct from any wages, accrued but unused vacation leave balances or other payments due to you upon your separation from the Company all or any portion of the amounts owed by you to the Company under this provision. You agree to sign necessary and appropriate documentation regarding any such deduction.
Annual Incentive Plan
In your role, you will also be eligible to participate in the Company’s discretionary annual incentive plan (“AIP”) beginning for the calendar year 2026, with a target of 70% of your annual base salary. You will not be eligible to participate in the AIP for the 2025 performance period. AIP bonuses are based on both Company and personal performance. AIP payout is capped at 200% of target payout (or such level determined by the Management Organization and Compensation Committee). To be
eligible, you must be employed with the Company and in good standing on the date the bonus is paid. Plan rules are subject to change annually.
Annual Stock Incentive Plan
You will be eligible for consideration for an annual equity award under the Crane NXT, Co. 2018 Amended & Restated Stock Incentive Plan (the “Stock Incentive Plan”) beginning in 2026. The objective of these awards is to align the interests of senior leaders and shareholders. Equity awards are made annually at the discretion of the Management Organization and Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors. Subject to the final discretion of the Committee, we expect your aggregate annual target award amount to be $650,000. Annual equity grants for executives at your level are currently made up of 50% Performance-Based RSUs, 25% stock options, and 25% Time-Based RSUs. Performance-Based RSUs are three-year cliff vesting and are measured over the period from January 1 of year of the grant. Time-Based RSUs and Options are subject to a four-year vesting schedule such that, so long as you remain employed with the Company at such time, 25% of the shares awarded will vest on each of the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the date of grant.
New Hire Equity Grant
I am pleased to offer you a one-time sign-on equity award under the Stock Incentive Plan with a grant date value of $400,000. This equity award will be in the form of Time-Based RSUs and is subject to the terms of the Stock Incentive Plan and the Award Agreement. These RSUs will be subject to a two-year vesting schedule such that, so long as you remain employed with the Company at such time, 50% of these shares will vest on each of the first and second anniversaries of your employment commencement date.
2025 Equity Grant
We are also pleased to offer you a 2025 equity award under the Stock Incentive Plan with a grant date value of $650,000. This equity award will be made up of 50% stock options and 50% Time-Based RSUs and is subject to the terms of the Stock Incentive Plan and the Award Agreements. Vesting terms are as described in the Annual Stock Incentive Plan section above. The effective date of grant will be the actual date you commence your employment with the Company.
Please note that in conjunction with the first stock award granted to you, you will be required to sign a Confidentiality, Non-Solicit and Non-Competition Agreement.
Holding Requirements
As the Senior Vice President, Chief People Officer at Crane NXT, you will be required to retain a minimum of 4 times base salary in Crane NXT common stock under Crane NXT’s Executive Stock Ownership Guidelines (“Guidelines”). While there is not a specific time horizon to reach that level, you will be required to retain at least 50% of net shares received in each vesting event or stock option exercise until you reach the required stock-holding requirement. Please refer to the Guidelines for
further detail. We believe this executive stock holding requirement aligns our senior leaders with the best interests of our shareholders.
Benefits
In addition to your compensation package, you will also be eligible to participate in our associate benefit programs, which include:
•Health, dental, and vision insurance effective on your start date for you and your eligible dependents.
•Retirement savings plan (401k) administered by Vanguard. The Company’s plan provides an annual non-matching contribution of 3% of base salary (effective January 1st following date of hire) and matching contribution of 50% of the first 6% you contribute on a pre-tax basis.
•Paid time off (4 weeks’ vacation, sick days, and paid Company holidays).
•Participate in the Benefits Equalization Plan (BEP) – this is a non-qualified deferred compensation plan that provides plan participants with annual benefits credits equal to 3% of eligible annual compensation in excess of the IRS compensation limitation ($350,000 in 2025) that is applicable to contributions under the Savings & Investment (401k) Plan. You will be added to this plan as of January 2026.
Please refer to the enclosed Crane NXT Benefits Guide for additional information regarding our benefit offerings. Your entitlement to our benefits is subject to change, to the extent Crane NXT changes such benefits programs offered to other associates at levels like yours.

•Signed Confidential Information and Intellectual Property Agreement; and
•The approval of the terms and conditions of the offer of employment set forth herein by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company.
