"We delivered another transformative year in 2024 and drove strong margin expansion across our entire portfolio despite a challenging global macroeconomic and geopolitical environment.

In Flow, we continued to grow our Commercial business while evolving our go-to-market strategy within Industrial. In Water Solutions, our filtration sales delivered another year of growth, and in Pool, we returned to sales growth driven by a strong aftermarket. We ended the year with strong cash flow and a solid balance sheet. We increased our dividend by approximately 9 percent for 2025 marking the 49th consecutive year of dividend increases and reaffirming our dividend aristocrat status. I'm proud of our accomplishments across the company and how our teams have delivered for customers and shareholders in 2024."

We expect to continue to invest in key areas across the company and execute on our Transformation initiatives and 80/20 to drive long-term growth, profitability and returns. We believe our balanced water portfolio is proving its resilience as Pool is expected to grow offsetting our Flow and Water Solutions residential end markets that remain pressured by higher interest rates. We are confident in our strategy and our ability to control what we can internally while mitigating risk from an uncertain macroeconomic and geopolitical environment near-term."
