•Net sales for the quarter increased 3 percent, including 6 percentage points of organic sales growth and 1 percentage point of sales growth from acquired operations, partially offset by 4 percentage points of currency translation headwinds. There were 14 weeks in the fiscal fourth quarter of 2021 compared to 13 weeks in 2022.
•The gross profit margin rate declined approximately 2 percentage points for the quarter as strong realized pricing was offset by higher product costs and unfavorable changes in currency translation rates.
•Total operating expenses decreased 7 percent due to lower sales and earnings-based expenses and changes in currency translation rates.
•Expense leverage offset the effects of lower gross profit margin rates for the quarter and drove an increase in operating earnings as a percentage of sales.
"Graco reported record results in 2022 with annual growth in all reportable segments and regions on an organic, constant currency basis," said Mark Sheahan, Graco's President and CEO. "While the year was challenging, our people persevered and handled both commercial and operational hurdles in typical Graco
Page 2 GRACO
fashion. I am proud of the work our teams have done and want to thank our employees, customers and vendors for another year of growth and success."
Consolidated Results
Changes in currency translation rates reduced sales and net earnings by approximately $23 million and $12 million, respectively, for the quarter and $66 million and $31 million, respectively, for the year.
Net sales for the quarter increased 3 percent from the comparable period last year (7 percent at consistent translation rates). Sales increased 5 percent in the Americas, 1 percent in EMEA (up 12 percent at consistent translation rates), and were flat in Asia Pacific (up 10 percent at consistent translation rates). Sales for the year increased 8 percent (12 percent at consistent translation rates). Sales increased 11 percent in the Americas, 10 percent in Asia Pacific (16 percent at consistent translation rates) and decreased 3 percent in EMEA (up 7 percent at consistent translation rates). Sales from acquired operations contributed approximately $3 million (1 percentage point) to the fourth quarter and $11 million (1 percentage point) to the year.
Gross profit margin rates decreased 2 percentage points for the quarter and 3 percentage points for the year from the comparable periods last year. Realized pricing was unable to offset higher product costs and the adverse impacts of changes in currency translation rates.
Total operating expenses for the quarter decreased $10 million (7 percent) compared to the fourth quarter last year. Reductions of $7 million from lower sales and earnings-based expenses and $5 million from the impact of currency translation were partially offset by volume and rate related increases. Operating expenses for the year decreased $18 million compared to last year. Reductions of $16 million from lower sales and earnings-based expenses and $14 million from the impact of currency translation were partially offset by $3 million of allowances for credit losses on customer receivables in Russia and volume and rate related increases.
Other expense decreased $15 million for the quarter and $16 million for the year. Other expense in the fourth quarter of 2021 included a non-cash pension settlement loss of $12 million in connection with the transfer of certain pension obligations to an insurance company.
The effective income tax rate was 18 percent for the quarter and 19 percent for the year, up approximately 11 and 6 percentage points, respectively, from the comparable periods last year. Adjusted to exclude non-recurring foreign tax benefits and the impact of excess tax benefits related to stock option exercises (see Financial Results Adjusted for Comparability below), the effective income tax rate was approximately 19 percent for both the quarter and year, 1 percentage point higher than the comparable periods last year due to the unfavorable effects of foreign earnings taxed at higher rates than the U.S.

Segment Results
Management assesses performance of segments by reference to operating earnings excluding unallocated corporate expenses. For a reconciliation of segment operating earnings to consolidated operating earnings, refer to the segment information table included in the financial statement section of this release. Certain measurements of segment operations are summarized below:
| Three Months | Twelve Months | |||||||||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Industrial | Process | Contractor | Industrial | Process | Contractor | |||||||||||||
| Net Sales (in millions) | $ | 190.2 | $ | 130.2 | $ | 234.6 | $ | 649.3 | $ | 495.1 | $ | 999.1 | ||||||
| Percentage change from last year | ||||||||||||||||||
| Sales | 10 | % | 15 | % | (7) | % | 8 | % | 25 | % | 1 | % | ||||||
| Operating earnings | 14 | % | 27 | % | (8) | % | 16 | % | 34 | % | (6) | % | ||||||
| Operating earnings as a percentage of sales | ||||||||||||||||||
| 2022 | 37 | % | 25 | % | 25 | % | 36 | % | 25 | % | 25 | % | ||||||
| 2021 | 35 | % | 23 | % | 25 | % | 33 | % | 23 | % | 27 | % |
Components of net sales change by geographic region for the Industrial segment were as follows:
| Three Months | Twelve Months | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Volume and Price | Acquisitions | Currency | Total | Volume and Price | Acquisitions | Currency | Total | |
| Americas | 5% | 0% | (1)% | 4% | 13% | 0% | (1)% | 12% |
| EMEA | 30% | 0% | (13)% | 17% | 15% | 0% | (12)% | 3% |
| Asia Pacific | 20% | 0% | (11)% | 9% | 14% | 0% | (6)% | 8% |
| Consolidated | 17% | 0% | (7)% | 10% | 14% | 0% | (6)% | 8% |
The Industrial segment experienced solid growth in all regions for the quarter and year. Increases in finishing system sales drove a double-digit percentage increase in EMEA and Asia Pacific for the quarter. The operating margin rate increased for both the quarter and year as strong realized pricing and expense leverage more than offset higher product costs and the adverse impacts of currency translation.
Components of net sales change by geographic region for the Process segment were as follows:
| Three Months | Twelve Months | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Volume and Price | Acquisitions | Currency | Total | Volume and Price | Acquisitions | Currency | Total | |
| Americas | 17% | 4% | (1)% | 20% | 22% | 3% | 0% | 25% |
| EMEA | 23% | 1% | (9)% | 15% | 22% | 1% | (8)% | 15% |
| Asia Pacific | 11% | 0% | (7)% | 4% | 34% | 0% | (5)% | 29% |
| Consolidated | 16% | 3% | (4)% | 15% | 25% | 2% | (2)% | 25% |
The Process segment had double-digit sales growth in all product applications for the quarter and year. Acquired operations contributed 3 percentage points of growth to the quarter and 2 percentage points to the year. The operating margin rate for this segment increased 2 percentage points for the quarter and year as increased volume and expense leverage offset higher product costs and the adverse impacts of currency translation.

Components of net sales change by geographic region for the Contractor segment were as follows:
| Three Months | Twelve Months | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Volume and Price | Acquisitions | Currency | Total | Volume and Price | Acquisitions | Currency | Total | |
| Americas | (1)% | 0% | 0% | (1)% | 7% | 0% | (1)% | 6% |
| EMEA | (10)% | 0% | (9)% | (19)% | (6)% | 1% | (9)% | (14)% |
| Asia Pacific | (17)% | 0% | (8)% | (25)% | 0% | 0% | (6)% | (6)% |
| Consolidated | (4)% | 0% | (3)% | (7)% | 4% | 0% | (3)% | 1% |
Contractor segment sales decreased 7 percent for the quarter due to softening demand in all regions. Sales increased 1 percent for the year primarily due to North American construction markets. Price realization and expense leverage offset the impact of higher product costs for the quarter, which resulted in a consistent operating margin rate compared to last year. For the year, the operating margin rate decreased 2 percentage points primarily due to higher product costs and the adverse impacts of currency translation.
Outlook
"As we head into 2023, order rates and business tempo will be closely monitored and we are cautiously optimistic that Graco will see sales growth on a full-year basis," said Sheahan. "We are initiating a revenue outlook for the year of low single-digit growth on an organic, constant currency. Our core growth strategies of developing new products, expanding distribution, seeking adjacent markets and pursuing strategic acquisitions will help our growth prospects this year and in the future."

Financial Results Adjusted for Comparability
Excluding the impacts of excess tax benefits from stock option exercises, prior year non-recurring tax provision adjustments and a prior year pension settlement loss presents a more consistent basis for comparison of financial results. A calculation of the non-GAAP measurements of adjusted income taxes, effective income tax rates, net earnings and diluted earnings per share follows (in millions except per share amounts):
