Competition
Parker operates in highly competitive markets and industries. We offer our products over numerous, varied markets through our divisions operating in 44 countries. Our global scope means that we have hundreds of competitors across our various markets and product offerings. Our competitors include U.S. and non-U.S. companies. These competitors and the degree of competition vary widely by product lines, end markets, geographic scope and/or geographic locations. Although each of our segments has numerous competitors, given our market and product breadth, no single competitor competes with the Company with respect to all the products we manufacture and sell.
In the Diversified Industrial Segment, Parker competes based on product quality and innovation, customer experience, manufacturing and distribution capability, aftermarket support, and price competitiveness. We believe that we are one of the market leaders in most of the major markets for our most significant Diversified Industrial Segment products. We have comprehensive motion and control technologies allowing us to provide the broadest systems capabilities. While our primary global competitors include Bosch Rexroth AG, Copeland, Danaher Corporation, Danfoss A/S, Donaldson Company, Inc., Emerson/ASCO, Festo SE & Co., Freudenberg-NOK, Gates Corporation, IMI/Norgren, SMC Corporation, Swagelok Company, and Trelleborg AB, none of these businesses compete with every group or product in our Diversified Industrial Segment.
In the Aerospace Systems Segment, we have developed relationships with key customers based on our advanced technological and engineering capabilities, performance in quality, delivery, service, and price competitiveness. This has enabled us to obtain significant original equipment business on new aircraft programs for our systems and components, as well as the follow-on repair and replacement business for these programs. Further, the Aerospace Systems Segment utilizes design and manufacturing techniques as well as best cost region and supply chain management strategies to reduce cost. Although we believe that we are one of the market leaders in most of the major markets for our most significant Aerospace Systems Segment products, primary global competitors for these products include Crane Co., Eaton Corporation plc, Honeywell Aerospace Inc., Moog Inc., RTX Corporation, Safran S.A., Senior plc, Triumph Group, Inc., and Woodward, Inc.
Across our two segments, we believe that our broad-based portfolio of core technologies, which consist of hydraulics, pneumatics, electromechanical, filtration, fluid & gas handling, process control, engineered materials, and climate control, is a positive factor in our ability to compete effectively with both large and small competitors. We believe that the following factors also contribute to our ability to compete effectively:
•Our business system, The Win Strategy
•Technology powerhouse of interconnected solutions
•Deep partnerships with our customers to develop innovative products
•Application engineering expertise
•Global distribution network
•Decentralized operating structure
Patents, Trademarks, Trade Names, Copyrights, Trade Secrets, Licenses
We own a number of patents, trademarks, trade names, copyrights, trade secrets and licenses related to our products. We also have exclusive and non-exclusive rights to use patents, trademarks, trade names, copyrights and trade secrets owned by others. In addition, patent and trademark applications are pending, although there can be no assurance that further patents and trademarks will be issued. We do not depend on any single patent, trademark, copyright, trade secret or license or group of patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets or licenses to any material extent.
Backlog and Seasonal Nature of Business
Backlog consists of written firm orders from a customer to deliver products and, in the case of blanket purchase orders, only includes the portion of the order for which a schedule or release date has been agreed to with the customer. The dollar value of backlog is equal to the amount that is expected to be billed to the customer and reported as a sale. Our backlog by business segment for the past two years is included in Part II, Item 7 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and is incorporated herein by reference. Our backlog was $12.8 billion at June 30, 2026 and $11.0 billion at June 30, 2025. Approximately 70% of our backlog at June 30, 2026 is scheduled for delivery in the succeeding twelve months. Because of the breadth and global scope of our business, our overall business is generally not seasonal in nature.

Environmental Regulation
Certain of our operations require the use and handling of hazardous materials and, as a result, the Company is subject to United States federal, state, and local laws and regulations as well as non-U.S. laws and regulations designed to protect the environment and regulate the discharge of materials into the environment. These laws impose penalties, fines and other sanctions for non-compliance and liability for response costs, property damage and personal injury resulting from past and current spills, disposals or other releases of, or exposures to, hazardous materials. Among other environmental laws, we are subject to the United States federal "Superfund" law, under which we have been designated as a "potentially responsible party" and may be liable for cleanup costs associated with various waste sites, some of which are on the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s Superfund priority list.
As of June 30, 2026, Parker was involved in environmental remediation and litigation at various U.S. and non-U.S. manufacturing facilities presently or formerly operated by us (or by an acquired legal entity) and as a "potentially responsible party," along with other companies, at off-site waste disposal facilities and regional sites.
We believe that our policies, practices and procedures are properly designed to prevent unreasonable risk of environmental damage and the consequent financial liability to the Company. Compliance with environmental laws and regulations requires continuing management efforts and expenditures by the Company. Compliance with environmental laws and regulations has not had in the past, and, we believe, will not have in the future, a material adverse effect on our capital expenditures, earnings, or competitive position.
Our reserve for environmental matters is discussed in Note 17 to the consolidated financial statements which is incorporated herein by reference.
Government Regulation
In addition to the environmental regulations discussed above, we are subject to various federal, state, local, and foreign government regulations relating to the development, manufacture, marketing, sale and distribution of our products and services in the countries where we conduct business. Compliance with these laws and regulations often requires the dedication of time and effort of our team members, as well as financial resources. Additional information about the impact of government regulations on our business is included in “Item 1A. Risk Factors.”
Energy Matters and Sources and Availability of Raw Materials
Our primary energy source for both of our business segments is electric power. While we cannot predict future costs of electric power, we manage this cost through aggregation in deregulated markets and leveraging contracts with established pricing on portions of our energy load. We are subject to governmental regulations in regard to energy supplies in the United States and elsewhere. To date, we have not experienced any significant disruptions of our operations due to energy curtailments.
We primarily use steel, brass, copper, aluminum, nickel, rubber and thermoplastic materials and chemicals as the principal raw materials in our products. We expect these materials to be available from numerous sources in quantities sufficient to meet our requirements.
Acquisitions
On September 18, 2025, the Company completed the acquisition of Curtis Instruments, Inc. ("Curtis"). On August 13, 2026, the Company completed the acquisition of Filtration Group Corporation ("FGC"). In May 2026, we entered into a definitive agreement under which we expect to acquire the commercial and defense aerospace business of CIRCOR International, Inc. ("CIRCOR Aerospace"). The acquisitions of Curtis and FGC and the pending acquisition of CIRCOR Aerospace are discussed in Notes 3 and 20 to the consolidated financial statements, which are incorporated herein by reference.
Human Capital Management
At Parker, we align employment levels with the global needs of our business and our customers. As of June 30, 2026, we employed approximately 59,850 persons that we refer to as “team members,” of whom approximately 30,830 were employed by foreign subsidiaries.
Our talented and passionate team members are the foundation of Parker’s enduring growth, bringing new ideas and perspectives to enhance our safety performance, improve productivity and inspire a diverse and inclusive culture. We see a clear path to a brighter future, and it begins with providing our people the resources that enable them to

find personal and professional satisfaction in their work, responsibly move our company forward and strengthen our communities, fulfilling our purpose of Enabling Engineering Breakthroughs that Lead to a Better Tomorrow.
The Win Strategy™ 3.0, Purpose and Values
The Win Strategy 3.0 is Parker’s business system that defines the goals and initiatives that drive growth, transformation and success. It works with our purpose, which is a foundational element of The Win Strategy, to engage team members and create responsible and sustainable growth.
The Win Strategy has four overarching goals: Engaged People, Customer Experience, Profitable Growth and Financial Performance, supported by our shared values of a Winning Culture, Passionate People, Valued Customers and Engaged Leadership. Our shared values shape our culture and our interactions with stakeholders and the communities in which we operate and live.
Safety
The safety and well-being of Parker team members is our highest priority. Our safety goal is simple: to be the safest industrial company in the world, which we define as having the lowest annual recordable incident rate among our proxy peers. We have successfully reduced our recordable incident rate by over 50% since our fiscal year 2019.
Our safety program is anchored on a safety management system that has globally deployed procedures and work instructions, including management of incidents and near miss events. We create a culture of safety through a variety of initiatives, leadership focus, and our commitment to safety as the first stated goal of The Win Strategy.
We engage team members in improving safety performance through High Performance Teams ("HPTs"). All Parker manufacturing locations have an active, chartered Safety HPT and every value stream has a representative who is responsible for safety within their area of the business. This ownership culture at the manufacturing level is an integral component of our safety program.
Engaged People
Engagement directly influences business performance. We strongly believe in empowering our team members to think like owners and take action to improve their areas of the business. Engagement is deeply ingrained in our culture, and as an overarching goal of The Win Strategy it is key to achieving top quartile financial performance.
Parker activates engagement through our HPTs, which apply the expertise and perspective of team members who are closest to the product and customer to drive improvement throughout the company. We closely track our progress in support of a high performing work environment through our Global Engagement Survey. Our last completed survey, in fiscal year 2025, achieved a 92% response rate with an overall engagement score of 75%.
Talent Development
We have a well-defined talent development program managed through our Talent Central system, which connects all business units globally on a common platform and provides team members with visibility to skill development, career planning and learning opportunities. This shared platform is the catalyst for talent management at Parker.
Our review process enables us to assess talent globally, from early-in-career roles through senior leaders. This review facilitates the identification of key talent and allows us to build meaningful development plans and align career growth opportunities. The talent process is also supported by our Integrated Career System program which illustrates career paths for various roles and the steps to advance through the organization.
Supplementing the talent development process are Parker’s learning offerings, which help team members expand their professional skills and take ownership of their learning and development. Examples of center-led programs are our annual ethics and compliance training and cybersecurity training that all team members are required to complete, in addition to programs for developing supervisory and leadership skills. Functional-specific programs include HPT training, lean bootcamps and kaizen event orientations. Local and regional training includes site safety, equipment safety and site quality requirements.
In addition to formal training programs, there are a host of development tools available which include mentoring relationships, coaching and feedback, job shadowing, project bubble assignments and other stretch projects.
6
Inclusion
An inclusive environment is a core tenet of our values and one of our key measures of success within The Win Strategy. We have an ongoing commitment to an inclusive and welcoming workplace where everyone feels valued and adds value, and different points of view are respected.
One important component of Parker’s inclusive workplace is the development and deployment of Business Resource Groups, each of which is open to all team members. In addition to our Business Resource Groups, we have processes in place to attract and retain team members with a wide range of backgrounds, perspectives and experiences, helping to support them with career plans and experienced mentors. Our goal is to promote a strong, inclusive work environment that will provide us the best talent to further strengthen our organization for success.
Compensation and Benefits
As a global employer, we are committed to offering competitive compensation and benefits, tailored to geography, industry, experience and performance. Our programs are designed to attract team members, motivate and reward performance, drive growth and support retention. We provide benefit programs with the goal of improving physical, mental and financial wellness of our team members throughout their lifetime. Some examples include base and variable pay, health and insurance benefits, paid time off, and retirement saving plans.

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors
The following "risk factors" identify what we believe to be the risks that could materially adversely affect our financial and/or operational performance. These risk factors should be considered and evaluated together with information incorporated by reference or otherwise included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Additional risks not currently known to the Company or that the Company currently believes are immaterial also may impair the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Business and Operational Risks
Risks arising from uncertainty in worldwide and regional economic conditions may harm our business and make it difficult to project long-term performance.
Our business is sensitive to global macro-economic conditions. Macroeconomic downturns may have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition, as well as our distributors, customers and suppliers, and on activity in many of the industries and markets we serve. Among the economic factors which may have such an effect are manufacturing and other end-market activity, currency exchange rates, air travel trends, difficulties entering new markets, tariffs and governmental trade and monetary policies, changes in government spending priorities (including defense and infrastructure spending), global pandemics, and general economic conditions such as inflation, deflation, interest rates and credit availability. These factors may, among other things, negatively impact our level of purchases, capital expenditures, and creditworthiness, as well as our distributors, customers and suppliers, and, therefore, the Company’s revenues, operating profits, margins, and order rates.
We cannot predict changes in worldwide or regional economic conditions and government policies, as such conditions are highly volatile and beyond our control. In addition, our responses to mitigate the impact of these conditions, such as potential price increases, could negatively impact our market share or relationships with distributors or customers. If these conditions deteriorate or remain at depressed levels for extended periods, however, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.
As a global business, we are exposed to economic, political and other risks in different countries in which we operate, which could materially reduce our sales, profitability or cash flows, or materially increase our liabilities.
Our net sales attributable to selling locations outside of the United States were approximately 36% in each of 2026, 2025 and 2024. In addition, many of our customers, manufacturing operations and suppliers are located outside the United States. The Company expects net sales from non-U.S. markets to continue to represent a significant portion of its total net sales. Furthermore, completed and pending acquisitions may increase our international exposure and the complexity of managing operations across multiple jurisdictions. Our non-U.S. operations are subject to risks in addition to those facing our domestic operations, including:
•fluctuations in currency exchange rates and/or changes in monetary policy;
•limitations on ownership and on repatriation of earnings;
•transportation delays and other supply chain disruptions;
•political, social and economic instability and disruptions, including armed conflicts;
•the imposition of duties and tariffs and other trade barriers;
•government import and export controls, embargoes, sanctions or trade restrictions, including possible restrictions on trade and/or obstacles to conducting business in China;
•labor unrest and current and changing regulatory environments;
•difficulties in implementing restructuring actions on a timely basis;
•difficulties in staffing and managing multi-national operations;
•limitations on our ability to enforce legal rights and remedies;
•public health crises, including pandemics;
•the potential for nationalization of enterprises; and
•potentially adverse tax consequences.
For example, the global nature of our business and our operations exposes us to political, economic, and other conditions in foreign countries and regions, such as the uncertainty about the future relationship between the U.S. and China, including with respect to trade policies, treaties, government regulations and tariffs, and the potential
9
renegotiation of the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement. Any increased trade barriers or restrictions on global trade, including trade with China or among North American trading partners, could adversely impact our business, results of operations or financial condition.
If we are unable to successfully manage the risks associated with expanding our global business or adequately manage operational fluctuations internationally, the risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.
Increased cybersecurity threats and more sophisticated and targeted computer crime have posed and could continue to pose a risk to our information technology systems, and a disruption to or breach in the security of such systems, if material, could have adverse effects on our results of operations and financial condition.
We rely extensively on information technology systems to manage and operate our business, some of which are managed or accessible by third parties. The security and functionality of these information technology systems, and the processing of data by these systems, are critical to our business operations. If these systems, or any part of the systems, are damaged, intruded upon, attacked, shut down or cease to function properly (whether by planned upgrades, force majeure, telecommunications failures, criminal acts, including hardware or software break-ins or extortion attempts, or viruses, or other cybersecurity incidents) and we suffer any resulting interruption in our ability to manage and operate our business or if our products are affected, our results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. The sophistication of cyber threats continues to evolve and grow, including the risk associated with the use of artificial intelligence and quantum computing by threat actors to conduct more targeted and evasive attacks. There can be no guarantee that the actions and controls we have implemented and are implementing, or which we cause or have caused third parties with access to our systems to implement, will be sufficient to protect and mitigate risks associated with our information technology systems. Additionally, our increasing use of digital technologies within our operations as well as other evolving practices such as certain of our employees working remotely at times and the increased adoption of generative artificial intelligence may increase our vulnerability to cyber and data protection risks.
In addition to existing risks, any adoption or deployment of or exposure to new technologies via acquisitions or internal initiatives or changes to our information technology systems as a result of divestitures may increase our exposure to risks, breaches, or failures, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations or financial condition. Furthermore, the Company has access to sensitive, confidential, or personal data or information that is subject to privacy and security laws, regulations, or other contractually-imposed controls. Despite our use of reasonable and appropriate controls, security breaches, theft, misplaced, lost or corrupted data, programming, or employee errors and/or malfeasance have led and could in the future lead to the compromise or improper use of such sensitive, confidential, or personal data or information. Such events may result in possible negative consequences, such as fines, ransom demands, penalties, failure to comply with laws governing sensitive data, loss of reputation, intellectual property, competitiveness or customers, increased security and compliance costs or other negative consequences. Further, the amount of insurance coverage that we maintain may be inadequate to cover claims or liabilities relating to a cybersecurity incident. Depending on the nature and magnitude of these events, they may have an adverse impact on our results of operations or financial condition.
Price and supply fluctuations of the raw materials used in our production processes and by our suppliers of component parts could negatively impact our financial results.
Our supply of raw materials could be interrupted for a variety of reasons, including availability and pricing. Furthermore, changes to United States and other countries' tariff and import/export regulations have in the past and may in the future have a negative impact on the availability and pricing of raw materials. Prices for raw materials necessary for production have fluctuated significantly in the past and significant increases could adversely affect our results of operations and profit margins. Our efforts to manage these fluctuations by, among other things, passing along price increases to our customers, may be subject to a time delay between raw material prices increasing and our ability to increase the price of our products, or we may be unable to increase the prices of our products due to pricing pressure, contract terms (including fixed-price contracts) or other factors. Any such inability to manage fluctuations could adversely impact our results of operations and cash flows.
We rely on a limited number of suppliers for certain critical components, such as specialty electronics, rare earths, specialty chemicals, aerospace super alloys and filtration media, and recent and planned acquisitions may increase our exposure to supply concentration risk. Any disruption in supply from these sources could require us to seek alternative suppliers, potentially at higher cost or with delays that could impact production schedules. Furthermore, our suppliers of component parts may significantly and quickly increase their prices in response to increases in
10
costs of raw materials that they use to manufacture the component parts. As a result, we may not be able to increase our prices commensurately with our increased costs. Consequently, our results of operations or financial condition could be materially adversely affected.
Our operations are subject to natural and man-made unexpected events that may increase our costs, interrupt production or our supply chain or otherwise adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.
The occurrence of one or more unexpected events, including war, acts of terrorism or violence, civil unrest, fires, tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes, floods and other forms of severe weather in the United States or in other countries in which we operate or in which our suppliers are located could adversely affect our operations and financial performance. Natural disasters, pandemics, equipment failures, power outages or other unexpected events could result in physical damage to and complete or partial closure of one or more of our manufacturing facilities or distribution centers, temporary or long-term disruption in the supply of component products from some local and international suppliers, and disruption and delay in the transport of our products to dealers, end-users and distribution centers. Existing insurance coverage may not provide protection for all of the costs that may arise from such events. The impacts of these unexpected events are difficult to predict but could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.
Changes in the demand for and supply of our products may adversely affect our financial results, financial condition and cash flow.
Demand for and supply of our products has been and may be adversely affected by numerous factors, some of which we cannot predict or control. Such factors include:
•changes in business relationships with and purchases by or from major customers, suppliers or distributors, including delays or cancellations in shipments, disputes regarding contract terms or significant changes in financial condition, and changes in contract cost and revenue estimates for new development programs;
•changes in product mix;
•changes in the market acceptance of our products;
•increased competition in the markets we serve;
•declines in the general level of industrial production;
•weakness in the end-markets we serve;
•fluctuations in the availability or the prices of raw materials; and
•fluctuations in currency exchange rates.
If any of these factors occur, the demand for and supply of our products could suffer, which could materially adversely affect the Company’s results of operations.
The development of new products and technologies requires substantial investment and is required to remain competitive in the markets we serve and new product markets. If we are unable to successfully introduce new commercial products or position our products for new product markets, our profitability could be adversely affected.
The markets we serve are characterized by rapidly changing technologies and frequent introductions of new products and services. Our ability to develop new products based on technological innovation and to position our existing products in new markets can affect our competitive position and often requires the investment of significant resources. For example, artificial intelligence technologies are rapidly developing and our business may be adversely affected if we cannot successfully integrate such technologies into our internal business processes and product and service offerings, or if we cannot effectively position our products to serve the needs of artificial intelligence technology providers, including data center infrastructure, in a timely, cost-effective, compliant and responsible manner. To advance our innovation and position us to meet our customers’ expectations, we make investments in emerging technologies that we believe are needed to keep pace with rapid industry innovation. If we cannot develop, or have difficulties or delays developing new and enhanced products and services, or if we fail to gain market or regulatory acceptance of new products and technologies, our revenues may be materially reduced and our competitive position could be materially adversely affected. In addition, we may invest in research and development of products and services, or in acquisitions or other investments, that do not lead to significant revenue, which could adversely affect our profitability.
11
Changes in the competitive environment in which we operate may eliminate any competitive advantages that we currently have, which could adversely impact our business.
Our operations are subject to competition from a wide variety of global, regional and local competitors, which could adversely affect our results of operations by creating downward pricing pressure and/or a decline in our margins or market shares. To compete successfully, we must excel in terms of product quality and innovation, technological and engineering capability, manufacturing and distribution capability, delivery, price competitiveness, and customer experience.
We may be required to make material expenditures in order to comply with environmental laws and regulations, to address the effects of climate change and to respond to customer needs and investor expectations regarding climate-related goals, each of which may negatively impact our business.
Our operations necessitate the use and handling of hazardous materials and, as a result, subject us to various U.S. federal, state and local laws and regulations, as well as non-U.S. laws, designed to protect the environment and to regulate the discharge of materials into the environment. These laws impose penalties, fines and other sanctions for non-compliance and liability for response costs, property damages and personal injury resulting from past and current spills, disposals or other releases of, or the exposure to, hazardous materials. Among other laws, we are subject to the U.S. federal "Superfund" law, under which we have been designated as a "potentially responsible party" and may be liable for clean-up costs associated with various waste sites, some of which are on the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s Superfund priority list. We could incur substantial costs as a result of non-compliance with or liability for cleanup or other costs or damages under environmental laws, including the "Superfund" law.
Increased public awareness and concern regarding environmental risks, including global climate change, may result in more international, regional and/or federal requirements or industry standards to reduce or mitigate global warming and other environmental risks. These regulations or standards could mandate more restrictive requirements, such as stricter limits on greenhouse gas emissions, than the voluntary commitments that we have made or require such changes on a more accelerated time frame. There continues to be a lack of consistent climate legislation across jurisdictions, which creates economic and regulatory uncertainty. Conversely, changes in governmental policy or leadership could lead to the rollback of existing climate regulations, potentially exposing the Company to stranded investments in compliance infrastructure or creating competitive disparities relative to companies that did not make such investments. If environmental laws or regulations or industry standards are either changed or adopted and impose significant operational restrictions and compliance requirements upon the Company or its products, or if anticipated regulations fail to materialize after we have made substantial compliance investments, our business, operations and financial condition could be negatively impacted.
Climate change could also present physical risks to our operations. Extreme weather events linked to climate change, including hurricanes, flooding, wildfires, high heat and water scarcity, among others, create physical risks to our operating locations and supply chains. Further, although we are working towards and intend to meet our goal of achieving near-total decarbonization (scope 1 and 2 emissions) within our operations by 2040, we may be required to expend significant resources to do so, which could increase our operational costs, and there can be no assurance that recently completed or future acquisitions will not make the achievement of this goal more difficult or costly. There can be no assurance of the extent to which any of our climate-related goals will be achieved, if at all, including on the timeline expected by customers or investors, or that any future investments we make in furtherance of achieving our goals will meet customer expectations and needs, investor expectations or market standards regarding sustainability, including reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Any failure, or perceived failure, by us to achieve our climate-related goals, further our initiatives, adhere to our public statements, comply with federal, state or international climate-related laws and regulations or meet evolving and varied customer and investor expectations and standards could result in legal and regulatory proceedings against us or could cause our customers to find other suppliers, each of which could adversely affect our reputation, the market price of our common shares, our results of operations, our financial condition or our cash flows.
We operate in challenging markets for talent and may fail to attract, develop and retain key personnel.
We depend on the skills, institutional knowledge, working relationships, and continued services and contributions of key personnel, including our leadership team, engineers and others at all levels of the company, as a critical part of our human capital resources. In addition, our ability to achieve our operating and strategic goals depends on our ability to identify, hire, train and retain qualified individuals. We compete with other companies both within and outside of our industry for talented personnel in a highly competitive labor market, and we may lose key personnel or fail to attract other talented personnel or otherwise identify and retain suitable replacements, and face increased
12
cost pressures for labor. These challenges in labor markets could have material adverse effects on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Strategic Transactions Risks
We are subject to risks relating to acquisitions and joint ventures, the integration of acquired companies, and divestitures of certain product lines or categories.
We expect to continue our strategy of identifying and acquiring businesses with complementary products and services, and entering into joint ventures, which we believe will enhance our operations and profitability. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to find suitable businesses to purchase or joint venture opportunities, or that we will be able to acquire such businesses or enter into such joint ventures on acceptable terms. In addition, we may be unable to consummate announced pending transactions, including the acquisition of CIRCOR Aerospace, due to an inability to obtain necessary regulatory approvals or support for otherwise suitable business targets or joint venture opportunities or otherwise, and we may be unable to obtain such regulatory approvals or support or otherwise consummate transactions on the timeline or terms that we anticipate, if at all. Furthermore, there are no assurances that we will be able to avoid acquiring or assuming unexpected liabilities. If we are unable to avoid these risks, our results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.
In addition, we may not be able to integrate successfully any businesses that we purchase into our existing business, including FGC and Curtis, and it is possible that any acquired businesses or joint ventures may not be profitable. We may encounter, or have encountered, the following difficulties during the integration process:
•the consequences of a change in tax treatment, including the cost of integration and compliance and the possibility that the full benefits anticipated to result from the acquisitions may not be realized;
•delays in the integration of management teams, strategies, operations, products, and services;
•differences in business backgrounds, corporate cultures, and management philosophies that may delay successful integration;
•the ability to retain key employees;
•the ability to create and enforce uniform standards, controls, procedures, policies, and information systems;
•challenges of integrating complex systems, technologies, networks, and other assets of the acquired companies in a manner that minimizes any adverse impact or disruptions to customers, suppliers, employees, and other constituencies; and
•unknown liabilities and unforeseen increased expenses or delays associated with the integration beyond current estimates.
We continually assess the strategic fit of our existing businesses and may divest or otherwise dispose of businesses that are deemed not to fit within our strategic plan or are not achieving the desired return on investment. These transactions pose risks and challenges that could negatively impact our business. For example, when we decide to sell or otherwise dispose of a business or assets, we may be unable to do so on satisfactory terms within our anticipated timeframe or at all, and even after reaching a definitive agreement to sell or dispose of a business, the sale is typically subject to satisfaction of pre-closing conditions which may not become satisfied. The divestiture process may also result in the disclosure of proprietary or competitively sensitive information to potential buyers, the incurrence of stranded costs that are not fully absorbed by the divested business, or the need to provide transition services that divert management attention and resources. Any strategic divestiture of a product line or business or exit of a product line or product category may reduce our revenue and earnings, result in material costs and expenses, create potential indemnification or retained liability obligations and cause disruption to our employees, customers, vendors and communities in which we operate.
If we are unable to avoid these risks relating to acquisitions, integrations of acquisitions, and divestitures, our results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.
Our results may be adversely affected if expanded operations from acquisitions are not effectively managed.
Our recent acquisitions have expanded, and further acquisitions and joint ventures may expand, significantly the size and complexity and reduce costs of our business. Our future success depends, in part, on the ability to manage this expanded business, which may pose or has posed substantial challenges for management, including challenges related to the management and monitoring of the expanded global operations and new manufacturing
13
processes and products, and the associated costs and complexity. There can be no assurance of successful management of these matters or that we will realize the benefits of acquisitions as expected.
The Company may be subject to risks relating to organizational changes.
We regularly execute organizational changes such as divestitures and realignments of existing and newly acquired businesses to support our growth and cost management strategies. We also engage in initiatives aimed to increase productivity, efficiencies and cash flow and to reduce costs. The Company commits significant resources to identify, develop and retain key employees to ensure uninterrupted leadership and direction. If we are unable to successfully manage these and other organizational changes, the ability to complete such activities and realize anticipated synergies or cost savings as well as our results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. We cannot offer assurances that any of these initiatives will be beneficial to the extent anticipated, or that the estimated efficiency improvements, incremental cost savings or cash flow improvements will be realized as anticipated or at all.
Financial Risks
Increasing costs of certain employee and retiree benefits could adversely affect our liability for such benefits.
The funding requirements and the amount of expenses recorded for our defined benefit pension plans are dependent on changes in market interest rates and the value of plan assets, which are dependent on actual plan asset returns. Significant changes in market interest rates and decreases in the fair value of plan assets and investment losses on plan assets would increase funding requirements and expenses and may adversely impact our results of operations.
The Company absorbs a portion of healthcare costs for its employees. If healthcare costs rise significantly and we continue to absorb the majority of these costs, these increasing costs may adversely impact our future results of operations.
Additional liabilities relating to changes in tax rates or exposure to additional income tax liabilities could adversely impact our financial condition and cash flow.
We are subject to income taxes in the U.S. and various non-U.S. jurisdictions. Our domestic and international tax liabilities are dependent upon the location of earnings among these different jurisdictions. Our future financial condition and cash flow could be adversely affected by changes in effective tax rate as a result of changes in tax laws and judicial or regulatory interpretation thereof, the mix of earnings in countries with differing statutory tax rates, changes in overall profitability, changes in U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), or changes in the valuation of deferred tax assets. In addition, the amount of income taxes paid by the Company is subject to ongoing audits by non-U.S. and U.S. federal, state and local tax authorities. If these audits result in assessments different from estimated amounts, future financial results may include unfavorable adjustments to the Company’s tax liabilities, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and cash flow.
Our indebtedness and restrictive covenants under our credit facilities could limit our operational and financial flexibility.
We have incurred significant indebtedness, and expect to incur a significant amount of additional debt for acquisitions, including in connection with the acquisition of FGC and the pending acquisition of CIRCOR Aerospace, as well as for operations, research and development and capital expenditures, or for other reasons related to our overall capital deployment strategy. Our ability to make interest and scheduled principal payments and meet restrictive covenants could be adversely impacted by changes in the availability, terms and cost of capital, changes in interest rates or changes in our credit ratings or our outlook. These changes could increase our cost of financing and limit our debt capacity, thereby limiting our ability to pursue acquisition opportunities, react to market conditions and meet operational and capital needs, which may place us at a competitive disadvantage.
We carry goodwill on our balance sheet, which is subject to impairment testing and could subject us to significant non-cash charges to earnings in the future if impairment occurs.
We have goodwill recorded on our balance sheet. Goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment annually as of January 1, in the third quarter or more often if events or changes in circumstances indicate a potential impairment may exist. Factors that could indicate that our goodwill is impaired include a decline in our stock price and market capitalization, lower than projected operating results and cash flows, and slower growth rates in our
14
industry. Declines in our stock price, lower operating results and any decline in industry conditions in the future could increase the risk of impairment. The amount of goodwill on our balance sheet may increase significantly in connection with pending and future acquisitions, which could increase our exposure to impairment risk. Impairment testing incorporates our estimates of future operating results and cash flows, estimates of allocations of certain assets and cash flows among reporting units, estimates of future growth rates, and our judgment regarding the applicable discount rates used on estimated operating results and cash flows. If we determine at a future time that impairment exists, it may result in a significant non-cash charge to earnings and lower stockholders’ equity.
The timing and amount of the Company’s share repurchases are subject to a number of uncertainties and may affect our common stock price.
Share repurchases generally constitute a component of our capital allocation strategy. We have historically funded our share repurchases with free cash flow and short-term borrowings. The amount and timing of share repurchases will be based on a variety of factors and past activity is not necessarily indicative of future repurchase levels. Important factors that could impact our decisions to pursue share repurchases include market conditions, the price of our shares, the nature and timing of other investment opportunities, such as acquisitions, changes in our business strategy, the terms of our financing arrangements, our outlook as to the ability to obtain financing at attractive rates, the impact on our credit ratings, legal and regulatory restrictions (including under the terms of financing arrangements), the availability of domestic cash, and overall business expectations. There can be no assurance that any share repurchases will enhance shareholder value because the market price of our shares may decline below the levels at which we repurchased our shares, and short-term stock price fluctuations could reduce the program’s effectiveness.
Legal and Regulatory Risks
As a provider of products to the U.S. government, we are subject to additional risks related to future government spending as well as unusual performance conditions and enhanced compliance risks.
In addition to the risks identified herein, doing business with the U.S. government subjects us to unusual risks, including dependence on the level of government spending and compliance with and changes in governmental acquisition regulations. Agreements relating to the sale of products to government entities may be subject to termination, reduction or modification, either at the convenience of the government or for our failure to perform, or other unsatisfactory performance under the applicable contract.
U.S. Government contractors are subject to extensive legal and regulatory requirements, including the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (“ITAR”), the Export Administration Regulations, the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and evolving cybersecurity requirements such as the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification framework. From time to time, agencies of the U.S. Government investigate whether we have been and are operating in accordance with these and/or applicable contractual requirements. Changes in export control lists or the scope of ITAR-controlled items may require us to modify our operations, obtain additional licenses or restrict certain business activities. If the Company were charged with wrongdoing as a result of any such investigation, or failed to achieve or maintain required cybersecurity certifications, it could be suspended or debarred from bidding on or receiving awards of new government contracts, subject to fines or penalties associated with contract non-compliance or resulting from such investigations or lose its export privileges, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
Litigation and legal and regulatory proceedings against the Company could decrease our liquidity, impair our financial condition and adversely affect our results of operations.
From time to time, we are subject to litigation or other commercial disputes and other legal and regulatory proceedings relating to our business. Due to the inherent uncertainties of any litigation, commercial disputes or other legal or regulatory proceedings, we cannot accurately predict their ultimate outcome, including the outcome of any related appeals. An unfavorable outcome could materially adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, as required by U.S. GAAP, we establish reserves based on our assessment of contingencies, including contingencies related to legal claims asserted against us. Subsequent developments in legal proceedings may affect our assessment and estimates of the loss contingency recorded as a reserve and require us to make payments in excess of our reserves, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.
We are subject to national and international laws and regulations, such as the anti-corruption laws of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the U.K. Bribery Act, relating to our business and our employees. Despite our
15
policies, procedures and compliance programs, our internal controls and compliance systems may not be able to protect the Company from prohibited acts willfully committed by our employees, agents or business partners that would violate such applicable laws and regulations. Any such improper acts could damage the Company's reputation, subject us to civil or criminal judgments, fines or penalties, and could otherwise disrupt the Company's business, and as a result, could materially adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Further, our operations are subject to certain antitrust and competition laws in the jurisdictions in which we conduct our business, in particular the United States and Europe. These laws prohibit, among other things, anticompetitive agreements and practices. If any of our commercial agreements or practices are found to violate or infringe such laws, we may be subject to civil and other penalties. We may also be subject to third-party claims for damages. Further, agreements that infringe antitrust and competition laws may be void and unenforceable, in whole or in part, or require modification in order to be lawful and enforceable. Accordingly, any violation of these laws could harm our reputation and could have a material adverse effect on our earnings, cash flows and financial condition.
Due to the nature of our business and products, we may be liable for damages based on product liability claims.
Our businesses expose us to potential product liability risks that are inherent in the design, manufacture and sale of our products and the products of third-party vendors that we use or resell. Significant product liability claims could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, liquidity and results of operations.
For example, our Aerospace Systems Segment produces aircraft components and systems that are critical to flight safety, and accordingly, the adverse impact of product quality issues, actual or perceived, can be significant. Our operations expose us to potential liabilities for personal injury or death as a result of the failure of an aircraft product that we have designed or manufactured, and such liabilities could be substantial given the catastrophic nature of potential aerospace incidents. In addition, a product safety issue could result in mandatory or voluntary recalls, airworthiness directives from the Federal Aviation Administration or other regulatory authorities, grounding of aircraft or temporary cessation of operations by our airline customers. If personal injury or death were to be caused by one of our products, or if we were to otherwise fail to maintain a satisfactory record of safety and reliability, our ability to retain and attract customers may be materially adversely affected.
Although we currently maintain what we believe to be suitable and adequate product liability insurance, there can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain our insurance on acceptable terms or that our insurance will provide adequate protection against all potential significant liabilities.
Failure to protect our intellectual property and know-how could reduce or eliminate any competitive advantage and reduce our sales and profitability, and the cost of protecting our intellectual property may be significant.
Protecting our intellectual property is critical to our innovation efforts. We own a number of patents, trade secrets, copyrights, trademarks, trade names and other forms of intellectual property related to our products and services throughout the world and in the operation of our business. We also have exclusive and non-exclusive rights to intellectual property owned by others. Our intellectual property may be challenged, stolen or otherwise infringed upon by third parties or we may be unable to maintain, renew or enter into new license agreements with third-party owners of intellectual property on reasonable terms. In addition, the global nature of our business increases the risk that our intellectual property may be subject to infringement, theft or other unauthorized use or disclosure by others. In some cases, our ability to protect our intellectual property rights by legal recourse or otherwise may be limited, particularly in countries where laws or enforcement practices are inadequate or undeveloped. And the cost of enforcing our rights may be significant. Unauthorized use or disclosure of our intellectual property rights or our inability to protect our intellectual property rights could lead to reputational harm and/or adversely impact our competitive position and results of operations.

Item 1C. Cybersecurity
Cybersecurity Risk Management and Strategy
Parker is committed to the protection of the Company’s data, data systems and digital assets while in storage, use or transit. Our cybersecurity program is integrated into our overall Enterprise Risk Management program and exists to secure our information systems and data assets, including those data assets entrusted to us by our stakeholders, and to promote our compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
We proactively work to address cybersecurity risk through our Digital & IT Risk Management Program, which focuses on identifying, assessing, responding to, monitoring and remediating cybersecurity-related risks. We maintain a comprehensive Information Security Management System (ISMS), which is aligned to ISO 27001 and is designed to maintain the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information and systems in our environment. Parker’s dedicated Cyber Security team utilizes the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cybersecurity Framework as its primary resource for identifying areas of risk and benchmarking and implementing continuous improvements. Our technical security configuration employs a centrally managed, layered approach, including hardened PCs, endpoint security detection software, email security, firewall appliances, and various network security protections. We employ enhanced security measures for operational technologies and secure account management, including a secondary anti-malware solution to our existing software to bolster our company-wide defenses. Additionally, we utilize third-party security monitoring services to further improve our 24/7 monitoring capabilities. We also maintain a third-party risk management program, which includes formally evaluating new vendors at onboarding and monitoring existing vendors on an ongoing basis, designed to oversee, identify, and reduce the potential impact to Parker and our customers of a security incident at a third-party vendor, supplier or other provider.
We have adopted comprehensive Information Security Policies and Standards that clearly articulate Parker’s expectations and requirements with respect to acceptable use, risk management, data privacy, education and awareness, security incident management and reporting, identity and access management, third-party management, security (with respect to physical assets, products, networks and systems), security monitoring and vulnerability identification. These policies and standards set forth a detailed security incident management and reporting protocol, with clear escalation timelines and responsibilities. We also maintain a global incident response plan and regularly conduct exercises to help with our overall preparedness.
We believe cybersecurity is the responsibility of every team member and provide ongoing mandatory cybersecurity awareness training globally to help team members recognize, avoid and report malicious activity. This includes interactive training to engage team members in identifying phishing risks and their appropriate response. We also provide regular training on data protection so that our team members understand the types of data they have and how to safeguard it.
Continuous improvement is a critical aspect of Parker’s cybersecurity program, which is why we integrate security intelligence from internal and external sources to help identify areas for improvement and gap remediation. As a supplement to our internal cybersecurity capabilities and controls, we partner with third-party consultants and advisors to conduct penetration testing and to assess our incident response plan. We periodically undergo a third-party risk assessment and third-party incident response adversarial engagement exercises to strengthen our security profile. We also conduct internal tabletop exercises to prepare for responding to potential cybersecurity events. Parker also maintains cybersecurity insurance designed to mitigate the impact of any attacks or threats to our business.
Cybersecurity Governance
Management is responsible for assessing and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats with leadership from the Company’s Vice President – Chief Digital and Information Officer ("CDIO"), who is responsible for the Company’s global Digital, Information Technology and Cyber Security organization. Our CDIO has served in various roles in information technology and information security for approximately 21 years with Fortune 500 companies.
17
Recognizing the importance of maintaining a secure environment for our products, data and systems that effectively supports our business objectives and customer needs, Parker’s full Board of Directors maintains oversight of cybersecurity. Our Board receives an in-depth report from our CDIO, at least annually, on the overall cybersecurity program, and updates throughout the year from our CDIO and CISO regarding such topics as cyber-risk management and the status of projects to strengthen cybersecurity effectiveness.
Item 2. Properties
Our corporate headquarters is located in Cleveland, Ohio, and, at June 30, 2026, the Company maintained approximately 323 manufacturing plants. We also maintain various sales and administrative offices and distribution centers throughout the world. None of these manufacturing plants, administrative offices or distribution centers are individually material to our operations. The facilities are situated in 35 states within the United States and in 43 other countries. We own the majority of our manufacturing plants. Our leased properties consist of sales and administrative offices and distribution centers as well as manufacturing plants.
We believe that our properties have been adequately maintained, are in good condition generally and are suitable and adequate for our business as presently conducted. The extent to which we utilize our properties varies by property and from time to time. We believe that our restructuring efforts have brought capacity levels closer to present and anticipated needs. Most of our manufacturing facilities remain capable of handling volume increases.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
None. From time to time we are involved in matters that involve governmental authorities as a party under federal, state and local laws that have been enacted or adopted regulating the discharge of materials into the environment or primarily for the purpose of protecting the environment. We will report such matters that exceed, or that we reasonably believe may exceed, $1.0 million or more in monetary sanctions.

Overview
The Company is a global leader in motion and control technologies. Leveraging a unique combination of interconnected technologies, we design, manufacture, and provide aftermarket support for highly engineered solutions that create value for customers primarily in aerospace and defense, in-plant and industrial equipment, transportation, off-highway, energy, and HVAC and refrigeration markets around the world.
By aligning around our purpose, Enabling Engineering Breakthroughs that Lead to a Better Tomorrow, Parker is better positioned for the challenges and opportunities of tomorrow.
The Win Strategy 3.0 is Parker's business system which defines the goals and initiatives that create responsible, sustainable growth and enable Parker's long-term success. It works with our purpose, which is a foundational element of The Win Strategy, to engage team members and create responsible and sustainable growth. Our shared values shape our culture and our interactions with stakeholders and the communities in which we operate and live.
We believe many opportunities for profitable growth are available. The Company intends to focus primarily on business opportunities in the areas of aerospace & defense, in-plant & industrial equipment, transportation, off-highway, energy, and HVAC and refrigeration. We believe we can meet our strategic objectives by:
•serving the customer and continuously enhancing its experience with the Company;
•successfully executing The Win Strategy initiatives relating to engaged people, customer experience, profitable growth and financial performance;
•maintaining a decentralized division and sales company structure;
•fostering a safety-first and entrepreneurial culture;
•engineering innovative systems and products to provide superior customer value through improved service, efficiency and productivity;
•delivering products, systems and services that have demonstrable savings to customers and are priced by the value they deliver;
•enabling a sustainable future by providing innovative technology solutions that offer a positive global environmental impact and operating responsibly by reducing our energy use and emissions;
•acquiring strategic businesses;
•organizing around targeted regions, technologies and markets;
•driving efficiency by implementing lean enterprise principles; and
•creating a culture of empowerment through our values, inclusion, accountability and teamwork.
We manage our supply chain through our "local for local" manufacturing strategy, ongoing supplier management process and broadened supply base. We actively monitor global trade policies and inflation, managing their impact through a variety of cost and pricing measures. In addition, continuous improvement and lean initiatives, along with disciplined workforce and discretionary spending management, further enhance our ability to mitigate these impacts. At the same time, we are appropriately addressing the ongoing needs of our business so that we continue to serve our customers.
21
Over the long term, the extent to which our business and results of operations will be impacted by global economic and political uncertainty and geopolitical risks depends on future developments that remain uncertain. In particular, the tariff environment continues to be dynamic. In February 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act ("IEEPA") on goods imported into the U.S. were unauthorized. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, the Company recognized a reduction to cost of sales of $84 million related to IEEPA tariff refunds received from the U.S. government. We have applied for additional refunds under the same program, though for lesser amounts. No receivable has been recorded for these additional refunds as the amount and timing remain uncertain. We will continue to monitor the global environment and manage our business with the goal to minimize unfavorable impacts on operations and financial results.
Consolidated Results
The following discussion and accompanying table provide an analysis of our operating performance for 2026 and 2025, with selected Consolidated Statements of Income line items expressed as a percentage of revenue to enhance comparability between periods.

Net Sales
Throughout this discussion, both reported sales growth, determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and organic sales growth, a non-GAAP measure, are presented. Organic sales growth represents the percentage change in net sales adjusted to exclude the effects of acquisitions and divestitures for the twelve-month period following their completion, as well as the impact of changes in currency exchange rates. Management believes these adjustments provide management and investors with additional insight into underlying sales trends and facilitate meaningful period-to-period comparisons of operating performance. References to organic sales in this discussion reflect this measure and are presented as a percentage increase or decrease relative to the comparable prior-year period. Total Company net sales changed as follows:
| 2026 | ||||||||
| Reported sales growth | 8.3 | % | ||||||
| Less: currency | 1.2 | % | ||||||
| Less: divestitures | (0.7) | % | ||||||
| Less: acquisitions | 1.2 | % | ||||||
| Organic sales growth | 6.6 | % | ||||||
Net sales in 2026 increased by $1,649 million, or 8.3%, compared to 2025, which was primarily driven by organic growth in both segments. Acquisitions net of divestitures increased sales by approximately $91 million in 2026. These changes are discussed in more detail within the business segment results section below.
Gross Profit Margin
Gross profit margin is calculated as net sales less cost of sales, divided by net sales, and increased in 2026 primarily due to higher margins in both segments primarily driven by sales volume, partially offset by unfavorable product mix and increased material costs.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased in 2026 compared to 2025 primarily due to higher stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related expenses, research and development expenses, and intangible asset amortization.
22
Interest Expense
Interest expense in 2026 decreased compared to 2025 primarily due to lower average rates on commercial paper borrowings.

Income Taxes
The effective tax rate in 2026 was lower than the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 21% due to share-based compensation, foreign-derived intangible income and U.S. Federal income tax credits, which were partially offset by U.S. state and local taxes and tax effects in foreign jurisdictions.
The effective tax rate in 2025 was lower than the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 21% due to tax benefits from the release of a foreign valuation allowance, share-based compensation, foreign-derived intangible income and a tax benefit from a lower taxable gain on divestitures than gain under GAAP, which were partially offset by U.S. state and local taxes and taxes related to international activities.
Refer to Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements for a further reconciliation of the U.S. federal statutory tax rate to our effective tax rate.

Diversified Industrial Segment net sales in 2026 increased $773 million, or 5.7%, from 2025. Lost sales from the divestment of the composites and fuel containment ("CFC") and non-core filtration businesses in 2025 decreased sales by approximately $146 million. The effect of the Curtis acquisition increased sales by approximately $237 million. Organic sales growth relating to our North American businesses in 2026 increased by 3.1%, or $252 million, from 2025, driven by demand within the in-plant and industrial equipment, aerospace and defense, and off-highway markets, partially offset by lower demand within the transportation market. Organic sales growth within our international businesses in 2026 increased by 3.9%, or $218 million, from prior-year levels primarily due to higher sales in the Asia Pacific region, where we experienced higher demand within the electronics and semiconductor and in-plant and industrial equipment markets, partially offset by lower demand within the transportation market.
Segment Operating Margin
Diversified Industrial segment operating margin increased by 100 basis points in 2026 compared to 2025. Within the North America businesses, segment operating margin increased by 110 basis points in 2026 compared to 2025, primarily driven by favorable pricing and benefits from prior year divestitures, partially offset by unfavorable product mix, increased material costs and higher intangible amortization. Within the International businesses, segment operating margin increased by 90 basis points in 2026 compared to 2025, primarily driven by favorable mix and pricing, partially offset by higher business realignment charges.
We expect to incur approximately $90 million in business realignment charges in fiscal 2027. In addition, we expect to incur approximately $25 million in acquisition integration charges. Continually changing business conditions could impact the ultimate costs we incur.

Liquidity And Capital Resources
We believe that we are great generators and deployers of cash. We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate cash to fund our operations and meet our strategic capital deployment objectives, which include the following:
•Investing in organic growth and productivity
•Continuing our record annual dividend increases
•Strategic acquisitions that strengthen our portfolio
•Share repurchases, including repurchases under the 10b5-1 share repurchase program
We expect that our cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operations, availability under our commercial paper program, and access to capital markets will be sufficient to meet our liquidity needs for the next twelve months and the foreseeable future.
At June 30, 2026, we had cash and cash equivalents totaling $501 million, of which $482 million was held by our foreign subsidiaries. We intend to repatriate certain foreign earnings, which may result in non-federal U.S. or foreign tax liabilities. All other undistributed foreign earnings are considered to be permanently reinvested.
Cash Flows
A summary of cash flows follows:
| For the years ended June 30, | 2026 | 2025 | Change | |||||||||||||||||
| Cash provided by (used in): | ||||||||||||||||||||
| Operating activities | $ | 4,364 | $ | 3,776 | $ | 588 | ||||||||||||||
| Investing activities | (1,390) | 224 | (1,614) | |||||||||||||||||
| Financing activities | (2,934) | (3,977) | 1,043 | |||||||||||||||||
| Effect of exchange rates | (6) | 22 | (28) | |||||||||||||||||
| Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents | $ | 34 | $ | 45 | $ | (11) | ||||||||||||||
Net cash provided by operating activities increased $588 million in 2026 compared to 2025. The increase was primarily driven by higher net income adjusted for non-cash items (including depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation expense, deferred income taxes and gains on sale of businesses), which more than offset the increased working capital requirements, specifically within inventory and accounts receivable. We continue to focus on managing inventory and other working capital requirements.
•Days sales outstanding relating to trade receivables for the Company was 50 days in 2026 and 51 days in 2025.
•Days supply of inventory on hand was 86 days in 2026 and 82 days in 2025.
Net cash (used in) provided by investing activities decreased by $1,614 million in 2026 compared to 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to $1.0 billion in cash used for the Curtis acquisition and lower proceeds from sale of businesses in 2026. Proceeds from sale of businesses in 2025 included net proceeds of $621 million related to the divestitures of the composites and fuel containment business and the non-core filtration business.
Net cash used in financing activities in 2026 and 2025 were impacted by the following factors:
•Net commercial paper repayments of $736 million in 2026 compared to $374 million in 2025.
•During 2025, we made principal payments of $490 million on our term loan facility and $500 million in connection with the maturity of medium-term notes. Additionally, we issued €700 million aggregate principal amount of 2.90% Senior Notes due 2030, the proceeds of which were used to repay the €700 million aggregate principal amount of 1.125% Senior Notes due 2025. There were no comparable transactions during 2026.
•Repurchases under our share repurchase program amounted to 1.2 million common shares for $1.0 billion during 2026 compared to repurchases of 2.5 million common shares for $1.6 billion during 2025.
26
Debt
To fund short-term liquidity needs, we utilize a commercial paper program that is supported by our revolving credit agreement.
During 2026, we amended our revolving credit agreement to increase the total line of credit to $3.75 billion, and authorized a corresponding increase in the commercial paper program size to $3.75 billion. The revolving credit agreement expires in June 2028; however, we have the right to request a one-year extension of the expiration date. Advances from the revolving credit agreement can be used for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, and for the refinancing of existing indebtedness. Issuances of commercial paper reduce the amount of credit available under the revolving credit agreement. As of June 30, 2026, there were no borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit agreement, and commercial paper notes outstanding were $1.0 billion. Taking into account outstanding commercial paper notes, $2.7 billion was available for borrowing under the revolving credit agreement as of June 30, 2026.
During 2026, we entered into a 364-Day Term Loan Agreement and a Three-Year Term Loan Agreement, which provide for senior unsecured delayed draw term loan facilities in aggregate principal amounts of $5.25 billion and $2.50 billion, respectively (together, the “Credit Facilities”). The Credit Facilities mature 364 days and three years, respectively, following August 13, 2026. As of June 30, 2026, we had not borrowed any funds under the Credit Facilities. Subsequent to June 30, 2026, to finance the FGC acquisition, the Company borrowed the full $7.75 billion aggregate amount available under the Credit Facilities. The Company intends to repay a portion of these borrowings with cash on hand and refinance the remaining borrowings with long-term debt.
We primarily utilize unsecured medium-term notes and senior notes to meet our financing needs and we expect to continue to borrow funds at reasonable rates over the long term.
Our credit agreements and indentures governing certain debt securities contain various covenants. Violation of these covenants would limit or preclude the use of the credit agreements for future borrowings or could accelerate the maturity of the related outstanding borrowings. Based on our rating level at June 30, 2026, the most restrictive financial covenant requires that the ratio of debt to debt-shareholders' equity not exceed 0.65 to 1.0. As of June 30, 2026, we are in compliance with all covenants, with a ratio of 0.36 to 1.0. While the incurrence of additional debt in connection with the FGC acquisition and the potential incurrence of additional debt in connection with the acquisition of CIRCOR Aerospace has raised and may raise the Company's debt levels and interest expense, we expect to remain in compliance with all covenants set forth in our credit agreements and indentures.
Our goal is to maintain an investment-grade credit profile. The rating agencies periodically update our credit ratings as events occur. At June 30, 2026, the long-term credit ratings assigned to our senior debt securities were as follows:
| Fitch Ratings | A- | |||||||
| Moody's Investor Services, Inc. | A3 | |||||||
| Standard & Poor's | BBB+ | |||||||
Refer to the cash flows from financing activities section and Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements for further discussion.
Capital Expenditures
We are targeting 2.5% of sales for capital expenditures for fiscal 2027 and have an annual long-term target of 2.0%. We will continue to prioritize capital expenditures related to safety, productivity and strategic investments.
Dividends
Cash dividends have been paid for 304 consecutive quarters, including a yearly increase in dividends for the last 70 years. The current annual dividend rate is $8.00 per common share.
Share Repurchases
On August 21, 2025, the Board of Directors approved an update to the number of shares available under our previous share repurchase authorization so that the aggregate number of shares available for repurchase as of such date was 20.0 million. There is no limitation on the number of shares that can be repurchased in a year and there is no expiration date for the program. As of June 30, 2026, 18.8 million shares remained available under the
27
repurchase authorization. Refer to Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements for further discussion.
Strategic Acquisitions and Divestitures
Acquisitions will be considered from time to time to the extent there is a strong strategic fit, while at the same time maintaining our strong financial position. In addition, we will continue to assess our existing businesses and initiate efforts to divest businesses that are not considered to be a good long-term strategic fit for Parker.
On September 18, 2025, we completed the acquisition of Curtis, for approximately $1.0 billion, net of cash acquired. On August 13, 2026, we completed the FGC acquisition from Madison Industries for the cash purchase price of $9.25 billion. On May 21, 2026, the Company announced that it entered into a definitive agreement to acquire CIRCOR Aerospace for approximately $2.55 billion in cash. The pending transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of applicable regulatory approvals, and is expected to close in the second half of calendar year 2026. We expect to fund the acquisition of CIRCOR Aerospace with a combination of new debt and cash. Refer to Notes 3 and 20 to the consolidated financial statements for further discussion.
Supply Chain Financing
We continue to identify opportunities to improve our liquidity and working capital efficiency, which includes the extension of payment terms with our suppliers. We currently have supply chain financing ("SCF") programs with financial intermediaries, which provide certain suppliers the option to be paid by the financial intermediaries earlier than the due date on the applicable invoice. We do not believe that changes in the availability of supply chain financing will have a significant impact on our liquidity. Refer to Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements for further discussion.
Critical Accounting Policies & Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The policies discussed below are considered by management to be more critical than other policies because their application places the most significant demands on management's judgment.
Revenue Recognition
Revenues are recognized when control of performance obligations, which are distinct goods or services within the contract, is transferred to the customer. Control is transferred when the customer has the ability to direct the use of and obtain the benefits from the goods or services. A majority of our revenues are recognized at a point in time when control is transferred to the customer, which is generally at the time of shipment. However, a portion of our revenues are recognized over time if the customer simultaneously receives control as we perform work under a contract, if the customer controls the asset as it is being produced or if the product has no alternative use and we have a contractual right to payment.
For contracts where revenue is recognized over time, we use the cost-to-cost, efforts expended or units of delivery method depending on the nature of the contract, including length of production time. The estimation of costs and efforts expended requires management's judgment due to the duration of the contractual agreements as well as the technical nature of the products involved. Adjustments to these estimates are made on a consistent basis and a contract reserve is established when the estimated costs to complete a contract exceed the expected contract revenues.
When there are multiple performance obligations within a contract, the transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on its standalone selling price. The primary method used to estimate a standalone selling price is the price observed in standalone sales to customers for the same product or service. Revenue is recognized when control of the individual performance obligations is transferred to the customer.
We consider the contractual consideration payable by the customer and assess variable consideration that may affect the total transaction price. Variable consideration is included in the estimated transaction price when there is a basis to reasonably estimate the amount, including whether the estimate should be constrained in order to avoid a significant reversal of revenue in a future period. These estimates are based on historical experience, anticipated performance under the terms of the contract and our best judgment at the time.
28
Impairment of Goodwill and Long-Lived Assets
We test goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis and between annual tests whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying value of a reporting unit may exceed its fair value. Our five reporting units are equivalent to our operating segments. As quoted market prices are not available for our reporting units, determining whether an impairment occurred requires the valuation of the respective reporting unit, which is estimated using both income-based and market-based valuation methods. The income-based valuation method utilizes a discounted cash flow model which requires several assumptions, including future sales growth and operating margin levels as well as assumptions regarding future industry-specific market conditions. Each reporting unit regularly prepares discrete operating forecasts and uses these forecasts as the basis for the assumptions in the discounted cash flow analysis. Within the discounted cash flow models, the Company uses a discount rate, commensurate with its cost of capital but adjusted for inherent business risks, and an appropriate terminal growth factor. The market-based valuation performed for each reporting unit includes an analysis consisting of market-adjusted multiples based on key data points for guideline public companies. We also reconcile the estimated aggregate fair value of our reporting units resulting from these procedures to our overall market capitalization.
The Company performed its fiscal 2026 annual goodwill impairment test as of January 1 for each of its five reporting units. The results of this test indicated the fair value substantially exceeded carrying value for all reporting units. We continually monitor our reporting units for impairment indicators and update assumptions used in the most recent calculation of a reporting unit's fair value as appropriate.
Long-lived assets held for use, which primarily includes finite-lived intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, are evaluated for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the undiscounted net cash flows to be generated by their use over their expected useful lives and eventual disposition are less than their carrying value. The long-term nature of these assets requires the estimation of their cash inflows and outflows several years into the future and only takes into consideration technological advances known at the time of the impairment test. During 2026, the Company did not record any material impairments related to long-lived assets.
Pensions
The annual net periodic benefit cost (credit) and benefit obligations related to the Company's defined benefit plans are determined on an actuarial basis. This determination requires critical assumptions regarding the discount rate, long-term rate of return on plan assets, increases in compensation levels and amortization periods for actuarial gains and losses. Assumptions are determined based on Company data and appropriate market indicators and are evaluated each year as of the plans' measurement date. Changes in the assumptions or actual experience that differs from the assumptions could result in a material change in the annual net periodic benefit cost (credit) and benefit obligations reported in the financial statements. Based on the assumptions selected at the June 30, 2026 measurement date, the Company expects to record a net periodic benefit credit of approximately $48 million in 2027 for all defined benefit plans.
For the Company's domestic qualified defined benefit plan, our largest plan, a 50 basis point change in the assumed long-term rate of return on plan assets is estimated to have an $16 million effect on annual pension expense and a 50 basis point decrease in the discount rate is estimated to increase annual pension expense by $4 million.
Net actuarial gains and losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and are subject to amortization and will affect earnings in the future. Further information on pensions is provided in Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements.
Business Combinations
From time to time, we may enter into business combinations. Business acquisitions are accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, which allocates the fair value of the purchase consideration to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. In the fair value evaluation of intangible assets acquired, there are significant estimates and assumptions, including forecasts of future cash flows, revenues; and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization; as well as the selection of the royalty rates and discount rates. The excess of the purchase consideration over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. The acquisition method of accounting also requires us to refine these estimates over a measurement period not to exceed one year to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the measurement of the amounts recognized as of that date. If we are required to adjust provisional amounts that we have recorded for the fair values of assets and liabilities in connection with acquisitions, these adjustments could have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
29
Income Taxes
Significant judgment is required in determining the Company's income tax expense and in evaluating tax positions. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities have been recorded for the differences between the financial accounting and income tax basis of assets and liabilities. Factors considered by the Company in determining the probability of realizing deferred income tax assets include forecasted operating earnings, available tax planning strategies and the time period over which the temporary differences will reverse. The Company reviews its tax positions on a regular basis and adjusts the balances as new information becomes available. For those tax positions where it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will be sustained, the largest amount of tax benefit with a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon examination by a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information will be recorded. For those income tax positions where it is not more likely than not that a tax benefit will be sustained, no tax benefit has been recognized in the consolidated financial statements. Further information on income taxes is provided in Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements.
Loss Contingencies
The Company has a number of loss exposures incurred in the ordinary course of business such as environmental claims, product liability and litigation reserves. Establishing loss accruals for these matters requires management's estimate and judgment with regard to risk exposure and ultimate liability or realization. We review these loss accruals periodically and make adjustments to reflect the most recent facts and circumstances.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Recently issued accounting pronouncements are described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
A substantial portion of our operations are conducted by our subsidiaries outside of the U.S. in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Most of our non-U.S. subsidiaries conduct their business primarily in their local currencies, which are also their functional currencies. Foreign currency exposures arise from translation of foreign currency-denominated assets and liabilities into U.S. dollars and from transactions denominated in a currency other than the subsidiary’s functional currency. We continue to manage the associated foreign currency transaction and translation risk using existing processes.
The Company manages foreign currency transaction and translation risk by utilizing derivative and non-derivative financial instruments, including forward exchange contracts, cross-currency swap contracts and certain foreign currency denominated debt designated as net investment hedges. The derivative financial instrument contracts are with major investment grade financial institutions and we do not anticipate any material non-performance by any of the counterparties. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
Derivative financial instruments are recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as either assets or liabilities and are measured at fair value. Further information on the fair value of these contracts is provided in Note 16 to the consolidated financial statements. Derivatives that are not designated as hedges are adjusted to fair value by recording gains and losses through the Consolidated Statements of Income. Derivatives that are designated as hedges are adjusted to fair value by recording gains and losses through accumulated other comprehensive loss in the Consolidated Balance Sheets until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. For cross-currency swaps measured using the spot method, the periodic interest settlements are recognized directly in earnings through interest expense. The translation of the foreign currency denominated debt that has been designated as a net investment hedge is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and remains there until the underlying net investment is sold or substantially liquidated. A 10% change in foreign exchange rates related to our forward exchange contracts as of June 30, 2026, would affect earnings by approximately $131 million. A majority of the impact would be offset by changes in value from the remeasurement of the underlying items being hedged. Collectively, the forward exchange contracts and their associated hedged items do not create material market risk.
The Company's debt portfolio contains variable rate debt, consisting of commercial paper, inherently exposing the Company to interest rate risk. The Company's objective is to maintain a 60/40 mix between fixed rate and variable rate debt thereby limiting its exposure to changes in near-term interest rates. A 100 basis point increase in near-term interest rates would increase annual interest expense on variable rate debt, consisting of commercial paper borrowings as of June 30, 2026, by approximately $10 million.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the shareholders and the Board of Directors of Parker-Hannifin Corporation
Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Parker-Hannifin Corporation and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2026 and 2025, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, cash flows, and equity, for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2026, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). We also have audited the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2026, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2026 and 2025, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2026, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2026, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.
As described in Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, management excluded from its assessment the internal control over financial reporting at Curtis Instruments, Inc. (“Curtis”), which was acquired on September 18, 2025, and whose financial statements constitute approximately 4% of total assets and 1% of net sales of the consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended June 30, 2026. Accordingly, our audit did not include the internal control over financial reporting at Curtis.
Basis for Opinions
The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report On Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audits of the financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures to respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable
32
assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Revenue — Refer to Notes 1 and 2 to the financial statements
Critical Audit Matter Description
The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of products to customers primarily in aerospace & defense, in-plant & industrial equipment, transportation, off-highway, energy, and HVAC & refrigeration markets around the world. The Company’s business activities are carried out by a large number of individual business units collectively offering hundreds of thousands of individual products in over forty countries globally.
We identified revenue from product shipments as a critical audit matter due to the geographic dispersion of the Company’s operations and business units generating revenue. Extensive audit effort is required due to the volume of the underlying transactions and number of individual business units. High levels of auditor judgment were necessary to determine the nature, timing, and extent of audit procedures performed to audit revenue from product shipments.
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to the Company’s revenue from product shipments included the following, among others:
•We tested the operating effectiveness of internal controls over the recognition of revenue from product shipments, including controls over the quantity and price of products shipped and timing of revenue recognition.
•We performed detail transaction testing for revenue from product shipments by making a sample of transactions and comparing the transactions selected to source documents such as purchase orders and shipping records.
•We tested the completeness of revenue from product shipments by making a sample from a listing of sales orders and comparing the sample transactions to source documentation such as shipping records to determine whether the transactions selected were appropriately included in revenue from product shipments.
•We tested the timing of revenue recognition by making a sample from a list of products shipped prior to and subsequent to year end and used source documentation such as shipping records to determine whether the transactions selected were appropriately recorded in the correct period.
•We performed substantive analytical procedures for certain revenue transactions by developing independent expectations of revenue based on data derived from the results of our detail revenue testing and comparing these expectations to the revenue recorded by management.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollars in millions, except per share amounts or as otherwise noted)
The term "year" and references to specific years refer to the applicable fiscal years.
Note 1. Significant Accounting Policies
The significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements are summarized below.
Nature of Operations
The Company is a global leader in motion and control technologies. Leveraging a unique combination of interconnected technologies, we design, manufacture, and provide aftermarket support for highly engineered solutions that create value for customers primarily in aerospace & defense, in-plant & industrial equipment, transportation, off-highway, energy, and HVAC & refrigeration markets around the world. We evaluate performance based on segment operating income before corporate administrative expenses, interest expense and income taxes.
Due to our diverse group of customers throughout the world, we do not consider ourselves exposed to any concentration of credit risks.
The Company manufactures and markets its products throughout the world. Although certain risks and uncertainties exist, the diversity and breadth of our products and geographic operations mitigate the risk that adverse changes with respect to any particular product and geographic operation would materially affect our operating results.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all majority-owned domestic and foreign subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and profits have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. The Company does not have off-balance sheet arrangements. Within the business segment information, inter-segment and inter-area sales have been eliminated.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Revenue Recognition
Revenues are recognized when control of performance obligations, which are distinct goods or services within the contract, is transferred to the customer. Control is transferred when the customer has the ability to direct the use of and obtain the benefits from the goods or services. When revenue is recognized at a point in time, control generally transfers at time of shipment. Revenues are recognized over time if the customer simultaneously receives control as the Company performs work under a contract, if the customer controls the asset as it is being produced or if the product produced for the customer has no alternative use and the Company has a contractual right to payment.
For contracts where revenue is recognized over time, we use the cost-to-cost, efforts expended or units of delivery method depending on the nature of the contract, including length of production time. The estimation of these costs and efforts expended requires judgment on the part of management due to the duration of the contractual agreements as well as the technical nature of the products involved. We make adjustments to these estimates on a consistent basis and establish a contract reserve when the estimated costs to complete a contract exceed the expected contract revenues.
A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation. When there are multiple performance obligations within a contract, the transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on its standalone selling price. The primary method used to estimate a standalone selling price is the price observed in standalone sales to customers of the same product or service. Revenue is recognized when control of the individual performance obligations is transferred to the customer.
We consider the contractual consideration payable by the customer and assess variable consideration that may affect the total transaction price. Variable consideration primarily includes prompt pay discounts, rebates and
39
volume discounts and is included in the estimated transaction price when there is a basis to reasonably estimate the amount, including whether the estimate should be constrained in order to avoid a significant reversal of revenue in a future period. These estimates are based on historical experience, anticipated performance under the terms of the contract and our best judgment at the time.
Payment terms vary by customer and the geographic location of the customer. The time between when revenue is recognized and payment is due is not significant. Our contracts with customers generally do not include significant financing components or noncash consideration.
Taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are excluded from revenue. Shipping and handling costs are treated as fulfillment costs and are included in cost of sales. The costs to obtain a contract where the amortization period for the related asset is one year or less are expensed as incurred.
There is generally no unilateral right to return products. The Company primarily offers an assurance-type standard warranty that the product will conform to certain specifications for a defined period of time or usage after delivery. This type of warranty does not represent a separate performance obligation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Trade Accounts Receivable, Net
Trade accounts receivable are initially recorded at their net collectible amount and are generally recorded at the time the revenue from the sales transaction is recorded. We evaluate the collectibility of our receivables based on historical experience and current and forecasted economic conditions based on management's judgment. Additionally, receivables are written off to bad debt when management makes a final determination of uncollectibility. Refer to the Consolidated Balance Sheets for more information.

Property, Plant and Equipment and Depreciation
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated principally using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes. Depreciation rates are based on estimated useful lives of the assets, generally 40 years for buildings, 15 years for land improvements and building equipment, to 10 years for machinery and equipment, and to eight years for vehicles and office equipment. Improvements, which extend the useful life of property, are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are expensed. We review property, plant and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable. When property, plant and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the appropriate accounts and any gain or loss is included in current income.

Investments in Joint Ventures
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets primarily include patents and technology, trade names and customer relationships and contracts and are recorded at cost and amortized on a straight-line method. Patents and technology are amortized over the shorter of their remaining useful or legal life. Trade names are amortized over the estimated time period over which an economic benefit is expected to be received. Customer relationships are amortized over a period based on anticipated customer attrition rates or contractual lives. The Company reviews intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable.
Goodwill
The Company conducts a formal impairment test of goodwill on an annual basis and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would, more likely than not, reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are provided based upon income for financial reporting purposes. Taxes related to Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income ("GILTI") are treated as a current period expense when incurred. Tax credits and similar tax incentives are applied to reduce the provision for income taxes in the year in which the credits arise. We recognize accrued interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. Penalties, if incurred, are recognized in income tax expense. Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences in the recognition of income and expense for tax purposes. Income tax effects resulting from adjusting temporary differences recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss are released when the circumstances on which they are based cease to exist.
Fair Value Measurements
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified according to the following hierarchy, which is determined by the observability of the inputs used in the valuation as of the measurement date. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are directly or indirectly observable. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs that are significant to the fair value measurement.
Foreign Currency Translation
Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated at current exchange rates, and income and expenses are translated using weighted-average exchange rates. The effects of these translation adjustments, as well as gains and losses from certain hedging and intercompany transactions, are reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss. Such adjustments will affect net income only upon sale or liquidation of the underlying foreign investments. Exchange (gains) losses from transactions in a currency other than the local currency of the entity involved are
41
Business Combinations
From time to time, we may enter into business combinations. Business acquisitions are accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, which allocates the fair value of the purchase consideration to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase consideration over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. The acquisition method of accounting also requires us to refine these estimates over a measurement period not to exceed one year to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the measurement of the amounts recognized as of that date. Transaction costs associated with these acquisitions are expensed as incurred.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2025-10, "Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities," which adds guidance on the recognition, measurement, and presentation of government grants.

The required disclosures are included in Note 5.
Note 2. Revenue Recognition
Revenue is derived primarily from the sale of products in the aerospace & defense, in-plant & industrial equipment, transportation, off-highway, energy, and HVAC & refrigeration markets. A majority of the Company’s revenues are recognized at a point in time. However, a portion of the Company’s revenues are recognized over time.
42
Disaggregation of Revenue
Revenue from contracts with customers is disaggregated by technology platform for the Diversified Industrial Segment, by market segment for the Aerospace Systems Segment and by geographic location for the total Company.
The Diversified Industrial Segment is an aggregation of several business units, which manufacture a broad range of motion-control systems and components for builders and users of various types of manufacturing, packaging, processing, transportation, agricultural, construction, and military vehicles and equipment. Contracts consist of individual purchase orders for standard product, blanket purchase orders and production contracts. Blanket purchase orders are often associated with individual purchase orders and have terms and conditions which are subject to a master supply or distributor agreement. Individual production contracts, some of which may include multiple performance obligations, are typically for products manufactured to the customer's specifications. Revenue in the Diversified Industrial Segment is typically recognized at the time of product shipment, but a portion of revenue may be recognized over time for installation services or in situations where the product has no alternative use and we have an enforceable right to payment.

The Aerospace Systems Segment produces engine and airframe components and systems, which are utilized on virtually every major commercial and military aircraft. Contracts generally consist of blanket purchase orders and individual long-term production contracts. Blanket purchase orders, which have terms and conditions subject to long-term supply agreements, are typically associated with individual purchase orders. Revenue in the Aerospace Systems Segment is typically recognized at the time of product shipment, but a portion of revenue may be recognized over time in situations where the customer controls the asset as it is produced or the product has no alternative use and we have an enforceable right to payment.

Contract Balances
Contract assets and contract liabilities are reported on a contract-by-contract basis. Contract assets reflect revenue recognized and performance obligations satisfied in advance of customer billing. Contract liabilities relate to payments received in advance of the satisfaction of performance under the contract. Payments from customers are received based on the terms established in the contract with the customer.

Net contract liabilities at June 30, 2026 decreased from the prior year amount due to timing differences between when revenue was recognized and the receipt of advance payments. During 2026, approximately $167 million of revenue was recognized that was included in the contract liabilities at June 30, 2025.
Remaining Performance Obligations
Note 3. Acquisitions and Divestitures
Acquisitions
CIRCOR Aerospace
On May 21, 2026, the Company announced that it entered into a definitive agreement to acquire CIRCOR Aerospace for approximately $2.55 billion in cash. CIRCOR Aerospace designs, manufactures and supports highly engineered and proprietary flight-critical motion and flow control products for commercial aircraft and defense applications and is complementary to Parker’s existing aerospace and defense product lines. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of applicable regulatory approvals, and is expected to close in the second half of calendar year 2026.
Filtration Group Corporation
On November 11, 2025, the Company announced that it entered into a definitive agreement to acquire FGC from Madison Industries for the cash purchase price of $9.25 billion. FGC is a global provider of proprietary and complementary filtration technologies for critical applications across the life sciences, HVAC and refrigeration, and in-plant and industrial market verticals. We completed the acquisition of FGC on August 13, 2026. Refer to Note 20 for additional information.
Curtis Instruments, Inc.
On September 18, 2025, we acquired all outstanding stock of Curtis from Rehlko, for approximately $1.0 billion, net of cash acquired. Curtis designs and manufactures motor speed controllers, instrumentation, power conversion and input devices that complement Parker’s capabilities in electric and hybrid vehicle motors and controls, as well as hydraulic and pneumatic technologies for the mobile machinery market. For segment reporting purposes, Curtis is included within the Diversified Industrial Segment.
The acquisition of Curtis has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires the assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be recognized at their respective fair values as of the acquisition date. The following table presents the preliminary estimated fair values of Curtis's assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the acquisition date. These preliminary estimates are subject to revision during the measurement period, not to exceed 12 months from the date of the acquisition, as third-party valuations are finalized, additional information becomes available and as additional analysis is performed. Such revisions may have a material impact on the preliminary purchase price allocation.

Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the purchase price over the net assets acquired and represents cost synergies and enhancements to our existing technologies. For tax purposes, Curtis's goodwill is not deductible. The intangible assets primarily include $275 million of customer relationships, $220 million of patents and technology and $56 million of trademarks, with weighted-average estimated useful lives of 18 , 10 and 13 years, respectively. These intangible assets were valued using the income approach, which includes significant assumptions around future revenue growth, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, royalty rates and discount rates. Such assumptions are classified as level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy.
Our Consolidated Statements of Income for 2026 include the results of operations of Curtis from the date of acquisition. Net sales attributable to Curtis during this period were $237 million and segment operating results were immaterial.
Unaudited pro forma financial information is not provided, as the impact of the acquisition did not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Acquisition-related Costs
Acquisition-related costs totaled $41 million in 2026, of which $11 million represented amortization expense related to the step-up in inventory to fair value resulting from the Curtis acquisition. These costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses and cost of sales, respectively, in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Divestitures
We continually assess our existing businesses and may divest those that are not considered to be a good long-term strategic fit for the Company. There were no significant divestitures completed during 2026.
During November 2024, we divested our CFC business within the North America businesses of the Diversified Industrial Segment, which was acquired in the acquisition of Meggitt, for net proceeds of $555 million. The resulting pre-tax gain of $241 million is included in in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The operating results and net assets of this business were immaterial to the Company's consolidated results of operations and financial position.
During November 2024, we divested a non-core filtration business within the North America businesses of the Diversified Industrial Segment for proceeds of $66 million. The resulting pre-tax gain of $11 million is included in in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The operating results and net assets of this business were immaterial to the Company's consolidated results of operations and financial position.
During December 2023, we divested our Filter Resources business, which was part of the Diversified Industrial Segment, for proceeds of $37 million. The resulting pre-tax gain of $12 million is included in in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The operating results and net assets of the Filter Resources business were immaterial to the Company's consolidated results of operations and financial position.

During September 2023, we divested the MicroStrain sensing systems business, which was part of the Diversified Industrial Segment, for proceeds of $37 million. The resulting pre-tax gain of $13 million is included in in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The operating results and net assets of the MicroStrain sensing systems business were immaterial to the Company's consolidated results of operations and financial position.
Note 4. Business Realignment
The Company incurred business realignment charges in 2026, 2025 and 2024. Business realignment charges included severance costs related to actions taken under the Company's simplification initiative aimed at reducing organizational and process complexity, as well as plant closures. In 2026, 2025 and 2024, a majority of the business realignment charges were incurred in EMEA. We believe the realignment actions will positively impact future results of operations but will not have a material effect on liquidity and sources and uses of capital.

Although future distributions of foreign earnings to the United States should not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes, other U.S. or foreign taxes may be imposed on such earnings. We have analyzed existing factors and determined we will no longer permanently reinvest certain foreign earnings. On these undistributed foreign earnings of approximately $592 million that are no longer permanently reinvested outside of the United States, we have recorded a deferred tax liability of $23 million. The remaining undistributed foreign earnings of approximately $1,170 million remain permanently reinvested outside the United States at June 30, 2026. Of these undistributed earnings, we have recorded a deferred tax liability of $18 million where certain foreign holding companies are not permanently reinvested in their subsidiaries. It is not practicable to estimate the additional taxes, including applicable foreign withholding taxes, which might be payable on the potential distribution of such permanently reinvested foreign earnings.
As of June 30, 2026, we have the following net operating losses, capital losses, tax credits, other loss carryforwards and related valuation allowances:

During the year ended June 30, 2025, we completed an initiative that simplified our foreign legal entity structure. The initiative impacted our evaluation of certain foreign tax loss carryforwards whose realizability was previously considered to be remote. This led to a valuation allowance release and the recording of a $180 million discrete tax benefit. Additionally, as a result of the initiative, $784 million in deferred tax assets for certain other foreign tax loss carryforwards whose realizability was previously considered to be remote, and the associated valuation allowances, were also written off.

Note 6. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share are computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted-average number of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding during the year. Common share equivalents represent the dilutive effect of outstanding equity-based awards. The reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of basic and diluted earnings per share was as follows (shares in millions):

For 2026, 2025 and 2024, 0.3 million, 0.3 million and 0.4 million common shares, respectively, subject to equity-based awards were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effect of their exercise would be anti-dilutive.

We have SCF programs with financial intermediaries, which provide certain suppliers the option to be paid by the financial intermediaries earlier than the due date on the applicable invoice. We are not a party to the agreements between the participating financial intermediaries and the suppliers in connection with the programs. The range of payment terms we negotiate with our suppliers is consistent, irrespective of whether a supplier participates in the SCF programs. We do not reimburse suppliers for any costs they incur for participation in the SCF programs and their participation is voluntary.

Intangible assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the undiscounted net cash flows to be generated by their use over their expected useful lives and eventual disposition may be less than their net carrying value. No material intangible asset impairments occurred in 2026, 2025 or 2024.
The increase in goodwill and intangible assets in 2026 relates to the acquisition of Curtis. The decrease in goodwill in 2025 relates to the divestitures of CFC and a non-core filtration business. Refer to Note 3 for more information.

Credit Facilities
During 2026, the Company entered into a 364 -Day Term Loan Agreement and a Three-Year Term Loan Agreement, which provide for senior unsecured delayed draw term loan facilities in aggregate principal amounts of $5.25 billion and $2.50 billion, respectively. The Credit Facilities mature 364 days and three years , respectively, following August 13, 2026. Borrowings under the Credit Facilities are expected to bear interest at a secured overnight financing rate plus an applicable margin, and we were obligated to pay certain fees on the undrawn portion of the commitments until the closing of the FGC acquisition. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had not borrowed any funds under the Credit Facilities. Subsequent to June 30, 2026, to finance the FGC acquisition, the Company borrowed the full $7.75 billion aggregate amount available under the Credit Facilities. The Company intends to repay a portion of these borrowings with cash on hand and refinance the remaining borrowings with long-term debt.
Revolving Credit Agreement and Commercial Paper
To fund short-term liquidity needs, we utilize a commercial paper program that is supported by our revolving credit agreement. During 2026, we amended our revolving credit agreement to increase the total line of credit by $750 million to $3.75 billion, and authorized a corresponding increase in the commercial paper program size to $3.75 billion. The revolving credit agreement expires in June 2028; however, we have the right to request a one-year extension of the expiration date. Advances from the revolving credit agreement can be used for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, and for the refinancing of existing indebtedness. Issuances of commercial paper reduce the amount of credit available under the revolving credit agreement. As of June 30, 2026, there were no borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit agreement.
Notes payable and long-term debt payable within one year on the Consolidated Balance Sheets includes commercial paper notes outstanding of $1.0 billion and $1.8 billion as of June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, with a weighted-average interest rate of 3.9 % and 4.6 %.
Covenants
The Company's credit agreements and indentures governing certain debt agreements contain various covenants, the violation of which would limit or preclude the use of the applicable agreements for future borrowings, or might accelerate the maturity of the related outstanding borrowings covered by the applicable agreements. Based on our rating level at June 30, 2026, the most restrictive financial covenant provides that the ratio of debt to debt-shareholders' equity cannot exceed 0.65 to 1.0. As of June 30, 2026, our debt to debt-shareholders' equity ratio was 0.36 to 1.0. We are in compliance with all covenants.

Note 11. Leases
We primarily enter into lease agreements for office space, distribution centers, certain manufacturing facilities and equipment. Certain leases contain options that provide us with the ability to extend the lease term. Such options are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. When accounting for leases, we combine payments for leased assets, related services and other components of a lease. Payments within certain lease agreements are adjusted periodically for changes in an index or rate. In addition, leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The discount rate implicit within our leases is generally not determinable, and therefore we determine the discount rate based on our incremental borrowing rate. The incremental borrowing rate for our leases is determined based on lease term and the currency in which lease payments are made.

Note 12. Retirement Benefits
Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits
The Company has noncontributory defined benefit pension plans covering eligible employees, including certain employees in foreign countries. Our largest plans are generally closed to new participants. Plans for most salaried employees provide pay-related benefits based on years of service. Plans for hourly employees generally provide benefits based on flat-dollar amounts and years of service. We also have arrangements for certain key employees, which provide for supplemental retirement benefits. In general, the Company's policy is to fund these plans based on legal requirements, tax considerations, local practices and investment opportunities.
The Company provides postretirement medical and life insurance benefits to certain retirees and eligible dependents through an unfunded plan. The plan is contributory, with retiree contributions adjusted annually, and pays stated percentages of covered medically necessary expenses incurred by retirees after subtracting payments
54
by Medicare or other providers and after stated deductibles have been met. The Company has established cost maximums to more effectively control future health care costs. We have reserved the right to change this benefit plan.

Assumptions
The weighted-average actuarial assumptions used to measure the net periodic benefit credit and benefit obligations are:
| U.S. Pension Benefits | Non-U.S. Pension Benefits | Other Postretirement Benefits | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 2026 | 2025 | 2024 | 2026 | 2025 | 2024 | 2026 | 2025 | 2024 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Average increase in compensation | % | % | % | % | % | % | NA | NA | NA | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The discount rate assumption is based on current rates of high-quality, long-term corporate bonds over the same estimated time period that benefit payments will be required to be made. The expected return on plan assets assumption is based on the weighted-average expected return of the various asset classes in the plans' portfolio. The asset class return is developed using historical asset return performance as well as current market conditions such as inflation, interest rates and equity market performance.
The health care cost trend rate assumptions used to measure the postretirement benefit obligations are:
| 2026 | 2025 | |||||||||||||
| Health care cost trend rate assumed for next year | % | % | ||||||||||||
| Ultimate health care cost trend rate | % | % | ||||||||||||
| Year that the ultimate rate is reached | ||||||||||||||
Plan Assets
The weighted-average allocation of the majority of the assets related to the defined benefit plans is as follows:
| June 30, | 2026 | 2025 | ||||||||||||
| Equities | % | % | ||||||||||||
| Fixed income | % | % | ||||||||||||
| Other investments | % | % | ||||||||||||
| % | % | |||||||||||||
The weighted-average target asset allocation as of June 30, 2026 is 20 % equities, 53 % fixed income and 27 % other investments. The investment strategy for the Company's worldwide defined benefit pension plan assets focuses on achieving prudent actuarial funding ratios while maintaining acceptable levels of risk in order to provide adequate liquidity to meet immediate and future benefit requirements. This strategy requires investment portfolios that are broadly diversified across various asset classes and external investment managers. Assets held in the U.S. and U.K. defined benefit plans account for 62 % and 23 %, respectively, of our total defined benefit plan assets. The overall investment strategy with respect to our U.S. defined benefit plan is to use a funding strategy more heavily weighted toward liability-hedging assets as the funded status improves. Over time, we will increase the allocation to long duration fixed income investments and reduce exposure to return seeking assets such as equities and alternatives. The strategy utilizes fixed income investments aligned with the duration and cash flow profile of the plan's liabilities to hedge the impact of interest rate and inflation changes. For the U.K. defined benefit plans, the overall investment strategy primarily focuses on utilizing fixed income investments to achieve a rate of return that is at least commensurate with the changes in the cost of providing fixed and index-linked annuities.
57
Certain investments that are measured at their fair value using the Net Asset Value ("NAV") per share (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy. The fair values of pension plan assets by asset class are as follows:
| 2026 | 2025 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

(2) Other investments primarily includes insurance contracts held under our non-U.S. plans. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The fair value measurement of plan assets using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) changed during 2026 and 2025 due to the following:
| 2026 | 2025 | |||||||||||||

Cash and cash equivalents consist of direct cash holdings and short-term investment vehicles. Cash is valued at cost, which approximates fair value. Short-term investments are primarily valued at quoted prices in active markets and are classified within Level 1. The U.S. defined benefit plan uses a liability-hedging initiative that requires the plan to maintain a certain cash balance.
Equity securities are valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the individual securities are traded. Substantially all equity securities are classified within Level 1.
Corporate bonds and fixed income securities categorized as Level 2 are valued using observable inputs for similar assets that are traded on an active market. The fair value of government issued securities categorized in Level 1 are primarily based on observable quoted prices on the active markets on which the security trades.
Commingled equity and fixed income funds consist of common/collective trusts or other investment vehicles. Most of these funds are valued using the NAV provided by the fund administrator and are based on the fair value of the underlying assets. Commingled funds classified within Level 1 are valued using the closing market price reported on the active market. When quoted market prices for funds are not available in an active market, they are classified as Level 2. Most of these funds have no redemption restrictions or lock-up periods and can be liquidated within 90 days.
Alternatives include investments in real estate, hedge funds, and private debt, which are valued using the fund's NAV based on the fair value of the underlying investments. Funds within this asset class may be subject to redemption restrictions, and valuations for certain real estate and private debt funds may be lagged up to 6 months. For these funds, the NAV is adjusted for cash flows through year end.
Other investments primarily include insurance contracts within the Non-U.S. pension plans' asset portfolio.
58
Insurance contracts, which are categorized as Level 3, are valued as reported by the insurer which include adjustments for changes in the underlying assets, or are valued using other pricing sources which use unobservable inputs. Other investments also includes derivative instruments which are generally associated with our liability hedging strategies and are valued based on the closing prices of contracts or market observable inputs.
Defined Contribution Plans
We sponsor various defined contribution plans both in the U.S. and internationally, including in the United Kingdom, Germany, Sweden, Canada and South Korea.
Under our primary U.S. 401(k) plan, the Company matches employee contributions up to a maximum of 5 % of eligible compensation. Participants may direct the matching contributions among various investment choices, including our common stock held within an employee stock ownership plan ("ESOP"). In addition to shares within the ESOP, employees may elect to invest in our common stock through a company stock fund offered within the primary U.S. 401(k) plan. As of June 30, 2026 and 2025, the plan held 3.5 million and 4.0 million shares of our common stock. The Company also maintains a retirement income account ("RIA") within the primary U.S. 401(k) plan. We make annual cash contributions to each eligible participant's RIA, with most participants receiving a flat 3 % contribution of eligible compensation. Some grandfathered participants receive contributions calculated at a higher percentage, but no participant receives less than the flat 3 %. Participants do not contribute to the RIA.
Matching and other contributions under all defined contribution plans are expensed as incurred. Expense recognized under the U.S. plans was $194 million, $187 million, and $194 million in 2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Expense recognized under the international plans was $36 million, $33 million and $31 million in 2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Other
The Company has established unfunded nonqualified deferred compensation programs that allow officers, directors and certain management employees to annually elect to defer a portion of their compensation on a pre-tax basis until retirement. The retirement benefit to be provided is based on the amount of compensation deferred, company matching contributions and earnings on the deferrals. The Company has invested in corporate-owned life insurance policies to assist in meeting the obligations under these programs. The policies are held in a rabbi trust and are considered general corporate assets. Net gains and losses related to these assets and liabilities are reflected in selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Income and are immaterial in total.
As of June 30, 2026 and 2025, the cash surrender values of the corporate-owned life insurance policies were $294 million and $260 million, and the balances of the deferred compensation liabilities were $196 million and $171 million, respectively. These amounts are included in other long-term assets and other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Share Repurchase Program
On October 22, 2014, the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to 35.0 million of the Company's common shares. On August 21, 2025, the Board of Directors approved an update to the number of shares available under the Company's existing share repurchase authorization so that the aggregate number of shares available for repurchase as of such date was 20.0 million. There is no limitation on the number of shares that can be repurchased in a year and there is no expiration date for the program. Repurchases may be funded primarily from operating cash flows and commercial paper borrowings and the shares are initially held as treasury shares.
Under our share repurchase programs, we repurchased 1.2 million, 2.5 million, and 0.4 million shares for $1.0 billion, $1.6 billion and $200 million during 2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As of June 30, 2026, we had 18.8 million shares available under this repurchase authorization.
Note 14. Stock Incentive Plans
The Company's 2023 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan ("2023 SIP") provides for the granting of stock-based incentive awards in the form of nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights ("SARs"), restricted stock units ("RSUs") and restricted and unrestricted stock to officers and key employees of the Company. The aggregate number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the 2023 SIP is 11.3 million. At June 30, 2026, 6.7 million common stock shares were available for future issuance.
The Company also maintains a Global Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP"), which is offered in a limited number of international countries. The ESPP is intended to provide eligible employees with the opportunity to acquire interest in the Company's common shares for 90 % of the fair market value per share. The maximum number of shares that may be issued under the ESPP is 10.0 million shares, of which approximately 9.9 million shares are still available for future issuance. Activity under this plan is not material.
We satisfy stock-based incentive award obligations by issuing shares of common stock out of treasury, which have been repurchased pursuant to our share repurchase program described in Note 13, or through the issuance of previously unissued common stock.

At June 30, 2026, $164 million of total unrecognized compensation costs related to stock-incentive awards has yet to be recognized and will be amortized into expense over a weighted-average period of approximately 1.7 years. The Company also realized income tax benefits related to the exercise and issuance of awards for $82 million, $54 million and $52 million during 2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
SARs
SARs vest ratably over a three-year service period and expire ten years from the grant date. Upon exercise, SARs entitle the participant to receive shares of common stock equal to the increase in value of the award between the grant date and the exercise date.
The fair value of each SAR award granted in 2026, 2025 and 2024 was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model.

The risk-free interest rate was based on U.S. Treasury yields with a term similar to the expected life of the award. The expected life of the award was derived by referring to actual exercise and post-vesting employment termination experience. The expected dividend yield was based on the annual rate of dividends per share over the market value of the stock on the grant date. The expected volatility of stock was derived by referring to changes in our historical common stock prices over a time-frame similar to the expected life of the award.

RSU and LTIP Awards
RSUs constitute an agreement to deliver shares of common stock to the participant at the end of a vesting period. Generally, the RSUs vest ratably over a three-year service period. For each nonvested RSU, recipients are entitled to receive a dividend equivalent, payable in cash or common shares, equal to the cash dividend per share paid to common shareholders.
We also granted RSUs with a one-year vesting period to non-employee members of the Board of Directors. Recipients receive a dividend equivalent payable in common shares, equal to the cash dividend per share paid to common shareholders.
The Company's Long Term Incentive Plans ("LTIP") provide for the issuance of unrestricted stock to certain officers and key employees based on the attainment of certain goals relating to our revenue growth, earnings per share growth and return on invested capital during a three-year performance period. The number of shares earned at the end of the performance period could vary, based on actual performance, between zero and 200 % of the target LTIP awards granted. These nonvested LTIP awards entitle participants to earn dividend equivalent units, payable in common shares, equal to the cash dividend per share paid to common shareholders and are subject to the same performance goals as the initial award granted.

Note 15. Research and Development
Independent research and development costs amounted to $267 million in 2026, $240 million in 2025 and $253 million in 2024. Pre-production expense incurred in connection with development contracts amounted to $43 million in 2026, $58 million in 2025 and $45 million in 2024.
Note 16. Financial Instruments
The Company utilizes derivative and non-derivative financial instruments, including forward exchange contracts, cross-currency swap contracts and certain foreign currency denominated debt, to manage foreign currency transaction and translation risk. The derivative financial instrument contracts are with major investment grade financial institutions, and the Company does not anticipate any material non-performance by any of the counterparties. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
62
Net Investment Hedges
The Company uses cross-currency swap contracts and foreign currency denominated debt, a non-derivative financial instrument, to hedge portions of the Company's investments in foreign subsidiaries and manage foreign exchange risk. The effect of translating the debt into U.S. dollars is recorded in foreign currency translation within accumulated other comprehensive loss and remains there until the underlying net investment is sold or substantially liquidated. For the cross-currency swap contracts that are designated as, and qualify as, net investment hedges, we assess the effectiveness using the spot method and the net gains or losses attributable to changes in the spot rate are recorded in foreign currency translation within accumulated other comprehensive loss. Any ineffective portions of the net investment hedges are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss into earnings through interest expense during the period of change. During 2026, 2025, and 2024, the periodic interest settlements related to the cross-currency swaps were not material.
As of both June 30, 2026 and 2025, the aggregate notional amounts of cross-currency swap contracts designated as hedging instruments were €69 290 2.1
The Company’s €700 million aggregate principal amount of 2.90 % Senior Notes due 2030 have been designated as a hedge of the Company’s net investment in certain foreign subsidiaries.
Non-designated Derivative Contracts
In addition to the net investment hedges, the Company utilizes forward exchange contracts that are not designated as hedging instruments but serve as economic hedges of forecasted transactions. These derivatives are used to mitigate foreign exchange risk. Changes in the fair value of these instruments are recorded in other expense (income), net in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Cash flows related to these instruments are included within operating activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Financial Statement Impact
Derivative financial instruments are recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as either assets or liabilities and are measured at fair value. The location and fair value of derivative financial instruments reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets are as follows:

Fair Values of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, notes payable and long-term debt. The carrying values for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and notes payable approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.
The carrying value of long-term debt, including the current portion and excluding the impact of net unamortized debt issuance costs, and the estimated fair value of long-term debt are as follows:
| June 30, | 2026 | 2025 | ||||||||||||
| Carrying value of long-term debt | $ | $ | ||||||||||||
| Estimated fair value of long-term debt | ||||||||||||||
The fair value of long-term debt is classified within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

| $ | $ | $ | $ | $ | $ | $ | $ | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The calculation of fair value for cross-currency swaps and forward contracts utilizes market observable inputs including both spot and forward prices for the same underlying currencies. The calculation of fair value of the cross-currency swap contracts also utilizes a present value cash flow model.
Note 17. Contingencies
The Company is involved in various litigation matters arising in the normal course of business, including proceedings based on product liability claims, workers' compensation claims, employee claims, class action lawsuits, and alleged violations of various environmental laws. We are self-insured in the United States for health care, workers' compensation, general liability and product liability up to predetermined amounts, above which third-party insurance applies. Management regularly reviews the probable outcome of these proceedings, the expenses expected to be incurred, the availability and limits of the insurance coverage and the established accruals for liabilities. While the outcome of pending proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that any liabilities that may result from these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, financial condition or results of operations.
In the ordinary course of business, some of our locations may enter into financial guarantees through financial institutions which enable customers to be reimbursed in the event of nonperformance by the Company.
Environmental
We are currently responsible for environmental matters primarily relating to known exposures arising from environmental litigation, investigations, and remediation at various manufacturing facilities presently or formerly operated by Parker and for which we have been named as a “potentially responsible party,” along with other companies, at off-site waste disposal facilities and regional sites.
As of June 30, 2026, we had an accrual of $82 million for environmental matters , which are probable and reasonably estimable. The accrual is recorded based upon the best estimate of costs to be incurred in light of the progress made in determining the magnitude of remediation costs, the timing and extent of remedial actions required by governmental authorities, the amount of our liability in proportion to other responsible parties, and outcomes of litigation.
64
Our estimated total liability for environmental matters ranges from a minimum of $82 million to a maximum of $292 million. The largest range for any one site is approximately $92 million. The actual costs we will incur are dependent on final determination of contamination and required remedial action, negotiations with governmental authorities with respect to cleanup levels, changes in regulatory requirements, innovations in investigatory and remedial technologies, effectiveness of remedial technologies employed, the ability of other responsible parties to pay, outcomes of litigation, and any insurance or other third-party recoveries.
Note 18. Business Segment Information
The Company operates in two eight core technologies, including hydraulics, pneumatics, electromechanical, filtration, fluid & gas handling, process control, engineered materials, and climate control, to drive superior customer problem solving and value creation.
The Diversified Industrial segment is an aggregation of several business units that design, manufacture, and provide aftermarket support for highly engineered solutions that create value for customers primarily in aerospace and defense, in-plant and industrial equipment, transportation, off-highway, energy, and HVAC and refrigeration markets around the world. Diversified Industrial segment products are marketed direct to OEMs and independent distributors through field sales employees. The Diversified Industrial North America businesses have manufacturing plants and distribution networks throughout the United States, Canada and Mexico and primarily service North America. The Diversified Industrial International businesses provide Parker products and services to 41 countries throughout EMEA, Asia Pacific and Latin America.
The Aerospace Systems segment designs, manufactures and provides aftermarket support for highly engineered airframe and engine solutions for both OEMs and end users. Our components and systems are utilized across commercial transport, defense fixed wing, business jets, regional transport, helicopter and energy applications. Aerospace Systems segment products are marketed by field sales employees and are sold directly to manufacturers and end users.
The accounting policies of the business segments are consistent with those described in Note 1, except that certain items are not allocated to the businesses. The business segment results are prepared on a basis that is consistent with the manner in which the Company’s management disaggregates financial information for internal review and decision-making.
The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) is the Chief Executive Officer. The CODM uses segment operating income as a measure to assess performance, drive decisions and allocate human and financial capital to our reportable segments. Annual plan, monthly forecasts and prior year results are continually compared to these measures when evaluating performance.
Segment operating income is measured as net sales less other segment items. Other segment items are primarily comprised of cost of sales; selling, general and administrative expenses; and income related to equity method investments. Management further excludes certain costs presented within cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Income, including corporate general and administrative expenses, stock-based compensation, and acquisition-related transaction costs, all of which are managed on a consolidated basis. For business segment reporting purposes, corporate general and administrative expenses are presented as a separate reconciling item, and stock-based compensation and acquisition-related transaction costs are reported within other expense (income), net.

Note 20. Subsequent Event
On August 13, 2026, the Company completed the FGC acquisition. FGC is a global provider of proprietary and complementary filtration technologies for critical applications across the life sciences, HVAC and refrigeration, and in-plant and industrial market verticals. The cash purchase price of $9.25 billion was funded with cash primarily through borrowings under the Credit Facilities and the commercial paper program.
The Company is in the process of evaluating the purchase price allocation for the FGC acquisition and expects to provide the initial purchase price allocation in its Form 10-Q for the quarter ending September 30, 2026. FGC will be included in our consolidated financial statements beginning on the date of acquisition and reported as part of the Diversified Industrial segment.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
None.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2026. Based on this evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2026, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The Company acquired Curtis on September 18, 2025. As a result of the acquisition, management is in the process of integrating, evaluating and, where necessary, implementing changes in controls and procedures. Other than with respect to the Curtis acquisition, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of 2026 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)). We assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2026. We have excluded Curtis from our evaluation of internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2026 because it was acquired in a business combination during the year. Total assets and total revenue that were excluded from management's assessment represented approximately 4% and 1%, respectively, of consolidated total assets and net sales, as of and for the year ended June 30, 2026. In making this assessment, we used the criteria established by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013).” We concluded that based on our assessment, the Company's internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2026.
Deloitte & Touche LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that audited the Company's consolidated financial statements, has issued an attestation report on the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2026, which is included in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
