CURTISS-WRIGHT CORPORATION and SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES to CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Curtiss-Wright Corporation along with its subsidiaries ("we," the "Corporation," or the "Company") is a global integrated business that provides highly engineered products, solutions, and services mainly to aerospace & defense (A&D) markets, as well as critical technologies in demanding commercial power, process, and industrial markets.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Curtiss-Wright and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Corporation have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of these financial statements.
Management is required to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the accompanying financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The most significant of these estimates includes the estimate of costs to complete using the over-time revenue recognition accounting method, pension plan and postretirement obligation assumptions, estimates for inventory obsolescence, fair value estimates around assets and assumed liabilities from acquisitions, estimates for the valuation and useful lives of intangible assets, legal reserves, and the estimate of future environmental costs. Changes in estimates of contract sales, costs, and profits are recognized using the cumulative catch-up method of accounting. This method recognizes in the current period the cumulative effect of the changes on current and prior periods. Accordingly, the effect of the changes on future periods of contract performance is recognized as if the revised estimate had been the original estimate. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, there were no significant changes in estimated contract costs. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been reflected in these financial statements.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Corporation’s 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of trends or of the operating results for a full year.
Recently issued accounting standards adopted
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities, which provides guidance on the recognition, measurement, and presentation of government grants. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning with the year ending December 31, 2028, including interim periods within that period. The Company early adopted this standard beginning in the first quarter of 2026 using the modified prospective approach. The adoption did not have a material effect on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Recently issued accounting standards to be adopted
In December 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires disclosure of disaggregated information about certain income statement line items in the notes to the financial statements. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning with the year ending December 31, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Accounting for and Disclosure of Software Costs, which amends certain aspects of the accounting for and disclosure of internal-use software costs. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning with the year ending December 31, 2028. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
2. REVENUE
Page 9

CURTISS-WRIGHT CORPORATION and SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES to CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
The Corporation recognizes revenue when control of a promised good and/or service is transferred to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Corporation expects to be entitled to in exchange for that good and/or service.
Performance Obligations
The Corporation identifies a performance obligation for each promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. As part of its assessment, the Corporation considers all goods and/or services promised in the contract, regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or implied by customary business practices. The Corporation’s contracts may contain either a single performance obligation, including the promise to transfer individual goods or services that are not separately distinct within the context of the respective contracts, or multiple performance obligations. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Corporation allocates the overall transaction price to each performance obligation using standalone selling prices, where available, or utilizes estimates for each distinct good or service in the contract where standalone prices are not available.
The Corporation’s performance obligations are satisfied either at a point-in-time or on an over-time basis. Typically, over-time revenue recognition is based on the utilization of an input measure used to measure progress, such as costs incurred to date relative to total estimated costs. If a performance obligation does not qualify for over-time revenue recognition, revenue is then recognized at the point-in-time in which control of the distinct good or service is transferred to the customer, typically based upon the terms of delivery.
The following table illustrates the approximate percentage of revenue recognized for performance obligations satisfied over-time versus at a point-in-time for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:

| Three Months Ended
| March 31,
| 2026 |  | 2025
Over-time | 52 | % |  | 53 | %
Point-in-time | 48 | % |  | 47 | %

Contract backlog represents the remaining performance obligations that have not yet been recognized as revenue. Backlog includes deferred revenue and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. Total backlog was approximately $4.3 billion as of March 31, 2026, of which the Corporation expects to recognize approximatel y 90% as net sales over the next 36 months. The remainder will be recognized thereafter.
Disaggregation of Revenue
The following table presents the Corporation’s total net sales disaggregated by end market and customer type:

Total Net Sales by End Market and Customer Type | Three Months Ended
| March 31,
(In thousands) | 2026 |  | 2025

Contract Balances
Timing of revenue recognition and cash collection may result in billed receivables, unbilled receivables (contract assets), and deferred revenue (contract liabilities) on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Corporation’s contract assets primarily relate to its rights to consideration for work completed but not billed as of the reporting date. Contract assets are transferred to billed receivables when the rights to consideration become unconditional. This is typical in situations where amounts are billed as work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms or upon achievement of contractual milestones. The Corporation’s contract liabilities primarily consist of customer advances received prior to revenue being earned. Revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 included in contract liabilities at the beginning of the respective years was approximately $170 million and $116 million, respectively. Contract assets and contract liabilities are reported in the "Receivables, net" and "Deferred revenue" lines, respectively, within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
3. RECEIVABLES
Receivables primarily include amounts billed to customers, unbilled charges on long-term contracts consisting of amounts recognized as sales but not billed, and other receivables. Substantially all amounts of unbilled receivables are expected to be billed and collected within one year. The amount of claims and unapproved change orders within our receivables balances are immaterial.
The composition of receivables is as follows:

(In thousands) | March 31, 2026 |  | December 31, 2025
Billed receivables: |  |  |
Trade and other receivables | $ | 551,031 |  |  | $ | 526,320 |
Unbilled receivables (contract assets): |  |  |
Recoverable costs and estimated earnings not billed, net of progress payments | 451,941 |  |  | 412,410 |
Total receivables | 1,002,972 |  |  | 938,730 |
Less: Allowance for doubtful accounts | (6,641) |  |  | (6,386) |
Receivables, net | $ | 996,331 |  |  | $ | 932,344 |

4. INVENTORIES
Inventoried costs contain amounts relating to long-term contracts and programs with long production cycles, a portion of which will not be realized within one year. Long-term contract inventory includes an immaterial amount of claims or other similar items subject to uncertainty concerning their determination or realization. Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value.
The composition of inventories is as follows:

(In thousands) | March 31, 2026 |  | December 31, 2025

CURTISS-WRIGHT CORPORATION and SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES to CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
The Corporation accounts for acquisitions by assigning the purchase price to acquired tangible and intangible assets and liabilities assumed. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their fair values, and the excess of the purchase price over the amounts assigned is recorded as goodwill.
The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the three months ended March 31, 2026 are as follows:

(In thousands) | Aerospace & Industrial |  | Defense Electronics |  | Naval & Power |  | Consolidated
December 31, 2025 | $ | 328,165 |  |  | $ | 714,602 |  |  | $ | 649,723 |  |  | $ | 1,692,490 |

(1) Programs include values assigned to major programs of acquired businesses and represent the aggregate value associated with the customer relationships, contracts, technology, and trademarks underlying the associated program.
Total intangible amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $15 million, as compared to $18 million in the comparable prior year period. The estimated future amortization expense of intangible assets over the next five years is as follows:

(In millions) |
2026 | $ | 60 |
2027 | $ | 56 |
2028 | $ | 51 |
2029 | $ | 50 |

7. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Debt
The estimated fair value amounts were determined by the Corporation using available market information that is primarily based on quoted market prices for the same or similar issuances as of March 31, 2026. Accordingly, all of the Corporation’s debt is valued as a Level 2 financial instrument. The fair values described below may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, the use of different methodologies to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.

9. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Diluted earnings per share was computed based on the weighted-average number of shares outstanding plus all potentially dilutive common shares. A reconciliation of basic to diluted shares used in the earnings per share calculation is as follows:

| Three Months Ended
| March 31,
(In thousands) | 2026 |  | 2025
Basic weighted-average shares outstanding | 36,897 |  |  | 37,683 |
Dilutive effect of deferred stock compensation | 161 |  |  | 168 |
Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding | 37,058 |  |  | 37,851 |

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, there were approximately 29,000 shares issuable under equity-based awards that were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as they were anti-dilutive based on the average stock price during the period. There were no anti-dilutive shares for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
10. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Corporation’s segments are composed of similar product groupings that serve the same or similar end markets. Based on this approach, the Corporation has three reportable segments: Aerospace & Industrial, Defense Electronics, and Naval & Power. The Corporation’s measure of segment profit or loss is operating income. Interest expense and income taxes are not reported on an operating segment basis as they are not considered in the segments’ performance evaluation by the Corporation’s chief operating decision-maker, its Chief Executive Officer.
Operating results by reportable segment were as follows:

12. CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS
From time to time, the Corporation is involved in legal proceedings that are incidental to the operation of its business. Some of these proceedings allege damages relating to asbestos and environmental exposures, intellectual property matters, copyright infringement, personal injury claims, employment and employee benefit matters, government contract issues, commercial or contractual disputes, and acquisitions or divestitures. The Corporation continues to defend vigorously against all claims. Although the ultimate outcome of any legal matter cannot be predicted with certainty, based on present information, including assessment of the merits of the particular claim, as well as current accruals and insurance coverage, the Corporation does not believe that the disposition of any of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on its condensed consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

Legal Proceedings
The Corporation has been named in a number of lawsuits that allege injury from exposure to asbestos. To date, the Corporation has not been found liable for or paid any material sum of money in settlement in any asbestos-related case. The Corporation believes its minimal use of asbestos in its past operations as well as its acquired businesses’ operations and the relatively non-friable condition of asbestos in its historical products makes it unlikely that it will face material liability in any asbestos litigation, whether individually or in the aggregate. The Corporation maintains insurance coverage and indemnification agreements for these potential liabilities and believes adequate coverage exists to cover any unanticipated asbestos liability.
Letters of Credit and Other Financial Arrangements
The Corporation enters into standby letters of credit agreements and guarantees with financial institutions and customers primarily relating to guarantees of repayment, future performance on certain contracts to provide products and services, and to secure advance payments from certain international customers. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were $29 million and $25 million of stand-by letters of credit outstanding, respectively. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were $15 million and $12 million of bank guarantees outstanding, respectively. In addition, the Corporation is required to provide the Nuclear Regulatory Commission financial assurance demonstrating its ability to cover the cost of decommissioning its Cheswick, Pennsylvania facility upon closure, though the Corporation does not intend to close this facility. The Corporation has provided this financial assurance in the form of a $40 million surety bond.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION and ANALYSIS of
FINANCIAL CONDITION and RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, continued
COMPANY ORGANIZATION
Curtiss-Wright Corporation is a global integrated business that provides highly engineered products, solutions, and services mainly to A&D markets, as well as critical technologies in demanding commercial power, process, and industrial markets. We report our operations through our Aerospace & Industrial, Defense Electronics, and Naval & Power segments. We operate across a diversified array of niche markets through engineering and technological leadership, precision manufacturing, and strong relationships with our customers. Approximately 70% of our 2026 revenues are expected to be generated from A&D-related markets.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) is intended to help the reader understand the results of operations and financial condition of the Corporation for the three months ended March 31, 2026. The financial information as of March 31, 2026 should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 contained in our Form 10-K filed with the SEC.
The MD&A is organized into the following sections: Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings, Results by Business Segment, and Liquidity and Capital Resources. Our discussion will be focused on the overall results of operations followed by a more detailed discussion of those results within each of our reportable segments.
Our three reportable segments are generally concentrated in a few end markets; however, each may have sales across several end markets. An end market is defined as an area of demand for products and services. The sales for the relevant markets will be discussed throughout the MD&A.
Analytical Definitions
Throughout management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, the terms “incremental” and “organic” are used to explain changes from period to period. The term “incremental” is used to highlight the impact acquisitions and divestitures had on the current year results. The results of operations for acquisitions are incremental for the first twelve months from the date of acquisition. The definition of “organic” excludes the effects of costs associated with our 2026 Restructuring Program in the current period and 2024 Restructuring Program in the prior period, and foreign currency translation.

Interest expense of $10 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 was essentially flat against the comparable prior year period.
Other income, net during the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased $2 million, or 36%, to $8 million, primarily due to prior period losses on equity securities held for investment purposes that were acquired in conjunction with our I&C Solutions acquisition.
The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2026 of 18.7% decreased compared to an effective tax rate of 19.0% in the comparable prior year period, primarily due to increased tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation.
Comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $108 million, compared to comprehensive income of $120 million in the prior year period. The change was primarily due to the following:
•Net earnings increased $27 million, primarily due to higher operating income.
•Foreign currency translation adjustments for the three months ended March 31, 2026 resulted in a $21 million comprehensive loss, compared to a $19 million comprehensive gain in the prior period. The comprehensive loss during the current period was primarily attributed to decreases in the British Pound and Canadian dollar.
New orders during the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased $167 million, or 16%, from the prior year period to $1.2 billion, primarily due to an increase in orders for naval defense and commercial nuclear products in the Naval & Power segment. New orders also benefited from the timing of orders on naval and ground defense equipment in the Defense Electronics segment as well as an increase in orders for actuation products on aerospace defense equipment in the Aerospace & Industrial segment. Changes in new orders by segment are discussed in further detail in the "Results by Business Segment" section below.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION and ANALYSIS of
FINANCIAL CONDITION and RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, continued
Sales during the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased $28 million, or 12%, to $255 million from the prior year period. In the commercial aerospace market, sales increased $13 million primarily due to higher OEM sales of actuation equipment, sensors products, and surface treatment services on narrowbody and widebody platforms. Sales in the aerospace defense market benefited from higher demand for sensors products, with sales increases in the ground defense market primarily due to higher sales of electromechanical actuation equipment. Sales in the general industrial market benefited primarily from higher sales of industrial vehicle products to off-highway vehicle platforms.
Operating income during the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased $9 million, or 29%, to $38 million from the prior year period, and operating margin increased 190 basis points to 15.1%, primarily due to favorable overhead absorption on higher sales.
New orders during the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased $40 million, or 16%, from the prior year period to $291 million, primarily due an increase in orders for actuation products on aerospace defense equipment as well as an increase in orders for industrial vehicle products within our commercial markets.

Sales in the Defense Electronics segment are primarily to the defense markets and, to a lesser extent, the commercial aerospace market.
Sales during the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased $11 million, or 5%, to $256 million from the prior year period. Sales in the aerospace defense market benefited $13 million primarily due to higher demand for embedded computing and avionics equipment, partially offset by the timing of sales on various helicopter programs. Sales increases in the commercial aerospace market were primarily due to higher sales of aerospace instrumentation equipment to OEM customers. These increases were partially offset by lower sales in the naval defense market primarily due to the timing of embedded computing equipment sales supporting various domestic and international programs.
Operating income during the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased $4 million, or 7%, to $72 million, and operating margin increased 60 basis points from the prior year period to 28.1%, primarily due to favorable absorption on higher sales as well as favorable product mix. These increases were partially offset by higher investment in research and development.
New orders during the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased $42 million, or 18%, from the prior year period to $278 million, primarily due to the timing of orders on naval and ground defense equipment.

Sales increases in the naval defense market were primarily due to the timing of production on the Virginia-class and Columbia-class submarine programs, as well as higher sales of aftermarket fleet services. In the commercial aerospace market, sales increased primarily due to higher OEM sales of actuation equipment, sensors products, and surface treatment services on narrowbody and widebody platforms as well as higher sales of aerospace instrumentation equipment to OEM customers.
Commercial markets
Sales during the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased $30 million, or 12%, to $272 million. In the power & process market, sales increased primarily due to higher sales of commercial nuclear products supporting the maintenance of existing operating reactors and transition from development to the initial prototype stage on next-generation advanced reactors. Sales in the general industrial market benefited primarily from higher sales of industrial vehicle products to off-highway vehicle platforms.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Sources and Use of Cash
We derive the majority of our operating cash inflow from receipts on the sale of goods and services and cash outflow for the procurement of materials and labor; cash flow is therefore subject to market fluctuations and conditions. Most of our long-term contracts allow for several billing points (progress or milestone) that provide us with cash receipts as costs are incurred throughout the project rather than upon contract completion, thereby reducing working capital requirements. In some cases, these payments can exceed the costs incurred on a project.

Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows | Three Months Ended
(In thousands) | March 31, 2026 |  | March 31, 2025
Cash provided by (used in): |  |  |
Operating activities | $ | (5,655) |  |  | $ | (38,765) |
Investing activities | (11,518) |  |  | (24,893) |
Financing activities | (8,011) |  |  | (98,578) |

Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents | $ | (27,898) |  |  | $ | (158,583) |

Net cash used in operating activities decreased $33 million from the prior year period, primarily due to higher cash earnings and improved working capital in the current period.
Net cash used in investing activities decreased $13 million from the prior year period, primarily due to additional consideration paid in the prior year period pertaining to our I&C Solutions acquisition.
Net cash used in financing activities decreased $91 million from the prior year period, primarily due to the repayment of our 3.85% Senior Notes in February 2025. Refer to the "Financing Activities" section below for further details.
Financing Activities
Debt
The Corporation’s debt outstanding had an average interest rate o f 3.8% for both the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. The Corporation’s average debt outstanding was $965 million an d $1,021 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Credit Agreement
As of March 31, 2026, the Corporation had approximately $29 million in letters of credit supported by the credit facility. The unused credit available under the credit facility as of March 31, 2026 was $721 million, which could be borrowed without violating any of our debt covenants.
Repurchase of common stock
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Corporation repurchased approximately 22,000 shares of its common stock for $14 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Corporation repurchased approximately 42,000 shares of its common stock for $14 million.
Cash Utilization
Management continually evaluates cash utilization alternatives, including share repurchases, acquisitions, and increased dividends to determine the most beneficial use of available capital resources. We believe that our cash and cash equivalents, cash flow from operations, available borrowings under the credit facility, and ability to raise additional capital through the credit markets are sufficient to meet both the short-term and long-term capital needs of the organization.
Debt Compliance
As of the date of this report, we were in compliance with all debt agreements and credit facility covenants, including our most restrictive covenant, which is our debt to capitalization limit of 60%. The debt to capitalization limit is a measure of our indebtedness (as defined in the notes purchase agreement and credit facility) to capitalization, where capitalization equals debt plus equity, and is the same for and applies to all of our debt agreements and credit facility.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION and ANALYSIS of
FINANCIAL CONDITION and RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, continued
As of March 31, 2026, we had the ability to borrow additional debt of approximately $2.9 billion without violating our debt to capitalization covenant.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Preparation of these statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by the application of our accounting policies. Critical accounting policies are those that require application of management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods. A summary of significant accounting policies and a description of accounting policies that are considered critical may be found in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on February 12, 2026, in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 1, and the Critical Accounting Policies section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
There have been no material changes in our market risk during the three months ended March 31, 2026. Information regarding market risk and market risk management policies is more fully described in "Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk" of our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC.
Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As of March 31, 2026, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of March 31, 2026 insofar as they are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and they include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2026, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings that are incidental to the operation of our business. Some of these proceedings allege damages relating to asbestos and environmental exposures, intellectual property matters, copyright infringement, personal injury claims, employment and employee benefit matters, government contract issues, commercial or contractual disputes, and acquisitions or divestitures. We continue to defend vigorously against all claims. Although the ultimate outcome of any legal matter cannot be predicted with certainty, based on present information, including assessment of the merits of the particular claim, as well as current accruals and insurance coverage, we do not believe that the disposition of any of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
We have been named in pending lawsuits that allege injury from exposure to asbestos. To date, we have not been found liable or paid any material sum of money in settlement in any asbestos-related case. We believe that the minimal use of asbestos in our past operations and the relatively non-friable condition of asbestos in our products make it unlikely that we will face material liability in any asbestos litigation, whether individually or in the aggregate. We maintain insurance coverage for these potential liabilities and we believe adequate coverage exists to cover any unanticipated asbestos liability.
Item 1A. RISK FACTORS
There have been no material changes in our Risk Factors during the three months ended March 31, 2026. Information regarding our Risk Factors is more fully described in "Item 1A. Risk Factors" of our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC.
Item 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
The following table provides information about our repurchase of equity securities that are registered by us pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, during the quarter ended March 31, 2026.

January 1 - January 31 | 7,543 |  |  | $ | 629.58 |  |  | 7,543 |  |  | $ | 250,203,740 |
February 1 - February 28 | 6,692 |  |  | $ | 674.76 |  |  | 14,235 |  |  | 245,688,217 |
March 1 - March 31 | 7,630 |  |  | $ | 685.14 |  |  | 21,865 |  |  | 240,460,567 |
For the quarter ended March 31, 2026 | 21,865 |  |  | $ | 662.80 |  |  | 21,865 |  |  | $ | 240,460,567 |

In November 2025, the Corporation entered into two written trading plans under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The Company implemented these written trading plans in connection with its previously announced share repurchase programs. The first trading plan includes purchases in the total amount of $60 million executed equally over the course of calendar year 2026. This written trading plan took effect on January 2, 2026 and will cease on December 31, 2026. The second trading plan includes potential purchases in the total amount of $100 million. The Company cannot predict when or if it will purchase any additional shares of common stock as such plan includes a price limit where the Company would not buy shares under the Rule 10b5-1 plan. This written trading plan took effect on January 2, 2026 and will cease on December 31, 2026. The terms of the trading plans can be found in the Corporation's Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on November 21, 2025.

A similar representation was made to the Company in connection with the adoption of the plan.
