SPX Reports First Quarter 2026 Results

CHARLOTTE, N.C., April 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SPX Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:SPXC) (“SPX”, the “Company”, “we” or “our”) today reported results for the first quarter ended March 28, 2026.

First Quarter Highlights (amounts presented for continuing operations; all comparisons against the first quarter of 2025, unless otherwise noted)

Raising 2026 Guidance (all comparisons against the full year 2025, unless otherwise noted)

Gene Lowe, President and CEO, remarked, “We had a strong start to the year with growth in income from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA* in excess of 20%. We continue to see healthy demand across our key end markets and realize strong contributions from recent acquisitions. To reflect our strong first quarter performance and outlook for the remainder of the year, we are raising our full year guidance to reflect Adjusted EBITDA* growth of 21% at the midpoint.”

Mr. Lowe continued, “We continue to make meaningful progress on our investments in production capacity expansions that position us for sustained long-term growth in attractive end markets, including supporting the strong demand for our data center solutions. We are optimistic about the strength of customer demand and our operational momentum, and we remain well-positioned to navigate a changing tariff environment. With a solid demand backdrop and a robust pipeline of attractive acquisition opportunities, I remain highly confident in our ability to continue driving value for years to come.”

Non-GAAP Presentation: This press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures, including consolidated segment income and margin, adjusted operating income, adjusted income from continuing operations before income taxes, adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations (or, adjusted EPS), EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow from continuing operations and adjusted free cash flow from continuing operations (or, adjusted free cash flow). These non-GAAP financial measures do not provide investors with an accurate measure of, and should not be used as a substitute for, the comparable financial measures as determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures, when read in conjunction with the comparable GAAP financial measures, give investors a useful tool to assess and understand the Company’s overall financial performance, because they exclude items of income or expense that the Company believes are not reflective of its ongoing operating performance, allowing for a better period-to-period comparison of operations of the Company. Additionally, the Company’s management uses these non-GAAP financial measures as measures of the Company’s performance. The Company acknowledges that there are many items that impact a company’s reported results and the adjustments reflected in these non-GAAP measures are not intended to present all items that may have impacted these results. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Refer to the tables included in this press release for the components of each of the non-GAAP financial measures, and for the reconciliations of historical non-GAAP financial measures to their respective comparable GAAP measures. Our non-GAAP financial guidance excludes items, which would be included in our GAAP financial measures, that we do not consider indicative of our on-going performance; and are calculated in a manner consistent with the presentation of the similarly titled historical non-GAAP measures presented in this press release. These items include, but are not limited to, intangible asset amortization expense, acquisition and integration-related costs, costs associated with dispositions, and potential non-cash income or expense items associated with changes in market interest rates and actuarial or other data related to our pension and postretirement plans, as the ultimate aggregate amounts associated with these items are out of our control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, a reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial guidance to the most comparable GAAP financial measures is not practicable. Full-year guidance excludes impacts from future acquisitions, dispositions and related transaction costs, incremental impacts of tariffs and trade tensions on market demand and costs subsequent to the date of this release, the impact of foreign exchange rate changes subsequent to March 28, 2026, and environmental and litigation charges.
