and start of 2014. Five points of the order growth was from a large dispensing equipment order which is scheduled to ship primarily during the first half of 2014. Free cash flow in the third quarter of $113 million brings our year-to-date total to

earnings, and cash flows, while providing resources to invest in organic growth. I am pleased with our progress. In the third quarter, despite continued volatility across the global markets, our strong execution resulted in solid margin expansion
and cash flow generation. Our ability to convert cash fuels our capital deployment strategy. We have continued our disciplined approach, focusing on a combination of funding organic growth, strategic acquisitions, shareholder dividends and share
repurchases. Throughout the year we have invested significantly in commercial and new product initiatives. We have also returned $192 million of capital to shareholders in dividends and share repurchases, and we continue to maintain a steady funnel
of active M&amp;A opportunities. As we make our key investment decisions, we will maintain our focused strategy and our commitment to deliver attractive financial returns. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:1%; margin-right:1%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For the foreseeable future, we expect the global end markets to remain uneven. However, our ability to execute in this
environment should generate organic revenue growth of approximately 5 percent in the fourth quarter. We are projecting fourth quarter 2013 EPS to be in the range of 78 to 80 cents. We are also increasing our full year 2013 EPS guidance to $3.05
&#150; $3.07 and estimate free cash flow conversion will be approximately 145 to 150 percent of net income for the full year 2013.&#148; </P>

&#147;anticipate,&#148; &#147;estimate,&#148; &#147;plans,&#148; &#147;expects,&#148; &#147;projects,&#148; &#147;should,&#148; &#147;will,&#148; &#147;management believes,&#148; &#147;the company believes,&#148; &#147;the company intends,&#148; and
similar words or phrases. These statements are subject to inherent uncertainties and risks that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated at the date of this news release. The risks and uncertainties include, but are not
limited to, the following: economic and political consequences resulting from terrorist attacks and wars; levels of industrial activity and economic conditions in the U.S. and other countries around the world; pricing pressures and other competitive
factors, and levels of capital spending in certain industries &#150; all of which could have a material impact on order rates and IDEX&#146;s results, particularly in light of the low levels of order backlogs it typically maintains; its ability to

countries in which the company operates; interest rates; capacity utilization and the effect this has on costs; labor markets; market conditions and material costs; and developments with respect to contingencies, such as litigation and environmental
matters. The forward-looking statements included here are only made as of the date of this news release, and management undertakes no obligation to publicly update them to reflect subsequent events or circumstances. Investors are cautioned not to
