Key Strategic Initiatives 10 Supported By A re a s o f F o cu s Safe Digging Aftermarket Parts and Services Specialty Vehicles for Diverse End-Markets Audible and Visual Warning Devices Flexible Manufacturing & “ETI” Culture New Product Development Technology as an Enabler Disciplined M&A

Strategic Initiative– Safe Digging 11 Federal Signal is well positioned to establish a leading position in an emerging application for vacuum-excavation technology; increased regulation expected to accelerate growth What is it? • Vacuum excavation or “Safe Digging” involves the use of pressurized air or water (“hydro-excavation”) to dig (coupled with a vacuum system) as an alternative to the use of traditional equipment such as backhoes and mechanical excavators • Acceptance of safe-digging applications continues to improve significantly over the last decade • Application has been widely accepted in Canada; US is behind but great early indicators – 19 states now include vacuum excavation as part of “safe excavation practices” Why is it Attractive? • In many circumstances, vacuum excavation is a safer and more productive means for digging (in comparison to traditional excavation) • Significantly minimizes chances of damage to underground infrastructure during the digging process • Less intrusive to the surrounding site at point of digging • Provides opportunity for the use of our broad range of offerings in new and emerging end markets beyond oil and gas Why Federal Signal? • Sole manufacturer of complete range of truck-mounted safe-digging equipment, with applications across a number of end-markets • 30-year track record of manufacturing leading vacuum- excavation products • Widest service and support network for vacuum- excavation products • Best-in-class payload for Ontario market • Dedicated and experienced sales organization in place to support initiative

• Niche market leader (product, geography, end-market) • Sustainable competitive advantage • Deep domain expertise (technology, application, manufacturing) • Strong management team • Leverages our distribution and manufacturing capabilities • Solid growth potential • Through-the-cycle margins comparable to or higher than our target margins • Ideally, identifiable synergies and recurring revenue opportunities • Return on capital greater than our cost of capital, appropriately adjusted for risk Disciplined M&A B u si n e ss C h a ra ct e ri st ic s F in a n ci a l C h a ra ct e ri st ic s 12 Target companies that accelerate our current strategic initiatives or provide a platform for growth in adjacent markets or new geographies

2021 Outlook Adjusted EPS* ranging from $1.73 to $1.85 Represents increase of 4% to 11% over 2020* 16 ▪ Revenue growth ▪ Double-digit improvement in pre-tax earnings ▪ Depreciation and amortization expense to increase by ~$6 M to $8 M ▪ Capital expenditures of $20 M to $25 M, including ongoing plant expansions ▪ Anticipating year-over-year headwind of ~$8 M associated with cost saving actions taken in 2020 which may return in 2021 Key Assumptions ▪ Interest rate of 2-3% ▪ Effective income tax rate of ~24%, including estimated discrete tax benefits ▪ ~62 M weighted average shares outstanding ▪ Seasonal effects typically result in Q1 earnings being lower than subsequent quarters ▪ Expect 2H to be stronger than 1H *Adjusted earnings per share (“EPS”) is a non-GAAP measure, which includes certain adjustments to reported GAAP income from continuing operations and diluted EPS. In 2020, we made adjustments to exclude the impact of acquisition and integration-related expenses, pension-related charges, restructuring activity, coronavirus-related expenses and purchase accounting effects, where applicable. We have also previously made adjustments to GAAP income from continuing operations and diluted EPS for special tax items. Should any similar items occur in 2021, we would expect to exclude them from the determination of adjusted EPS. However, because of the underlying uncertainty in quantifying amounts which may not yet be known, a reconciliation of our Adjusted EPS outlook to the most applicable GAAP measure is excluded based on the unreasonable efforts exception in Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B).

(5) Adjusted income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2019 excludes the tax effects of acquisition and integration- related expenses and purchase accounting effects. Adjusted income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2019 also excludes an $0.8 million benefit from changes in state deferred tax valuation allowances. Year Ended December 31, (1) Pension-related charges in the year ended December 31, 2020 relate to charges incurred in connection with the withdrawal from a multi-employer pension plan. (2) Coronavirus-related expenses in the year ended December 31, 2020 include direct expenses incurred as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, that are incremental to, and separable from, normal operations. Such expenses primarily relate to incremental paid time off provided to employees and costs incurred to implement enhanced workplace safety protocols. (3) Purchase accounting effects relate to adjustments to exclude the step-up in the valuation of equipment acquired in connection with acquisitions that was sold subsequent to the acquisition dates in the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, as well as to exclude the depreciation of the step-up in the valuation of the rental fleet acquired in the JJE transaction. Adjusted income from continuing operations and earnings per share (“EPS”) The Company believes that modifying its 2020 and 2019 income from continuing operations and diluted EPS provides additional measures which are representative of the Company’s underlying performance and improves the comparability of results between reporting periods. During the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, adjustments were made to reported GAAP income from continuing operations and diluted EPS to exclude the impact of acquisition and integration-related expenses, pension-related charges, restructuring activity, coronavirus-related expenses, purchase accounting effects, and special tax items, where applicable.

Appendix IV: Non-GAAP Measures (Adjusted EBITDA) 27 (a) Purchase accounting effects represent the step-up in the valuation of equipment acquired in recent business combinations that was sold during the periods presented. (b) Adjustment to exclude recognition of a deferred gain associated with historical sale lease-back transactions. Effective with the adoption of the new lease accounting standard in 2019, recognition of this gain was eliminated.

We believe that investors use versions of these metrics in a similar manner. For these reasons, the Company believes that adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are meaningful metrics to investors in evaluating the Company’s underlying financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that represents the total of income from continuing operations, interest expense, pension settlement charges, hearing loss settlement charges, debt settlement charges, acquisition and integration-related expenses, coronavirus-related expenses, restructuring activity, executive severance costs, purchase accounting effects, other income/expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense, and the impact of adoption of a new lease accounting standard, where applicable. Consolidated adjusted EBITDA margin is a non-GAAP measure that represents the total of income from continuing operations, interest expense, pension settlement charges, hearing loss settlement charges, debt settlement charges, acquisition and integration-related expenses, coronavirus-related expenses, restructuring activity, executive severance costs, purchase accounting effects, other income/expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense, and the impact of adoption of a new lease accounting standard, where applicable, divided by net sales for the applicable period(s). Other companies may use different methods to calculate adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin.
