Xylem Reports First Quarter Results

First-Quarter Highlights

•Orders of $2.2 billion, up 3% on a reported basis and flat organically

•Revenue of $2.1 billion, up 3% on a reported basis and flat organically

•Earnings per share of $0.79, up 14%; $1.12 on an adjusted basis, up 9%

WASHINGTON, D.C., April 28, 2026 -- Xylem Inc. (NYSE: XYL), a leading global water solutions company dedicated to solving the world’s most challenging water issues, today reported first-quarter 2026 results. The Company delivered total revenue of $2.1 billion, on strong execution. First-quarter earnings per share were up 14 percent on a reported basis and 9 percent on an adjusted basis.

“We entered the year with sustained momentum and solid demand across key end markets,” said Matthew Pine, Xylem’s CEO. “While the external environment remains dynamic, our teams are executing well, staying close to customers, and advancing long-term priorities.” Pine added, “Our steady progress this quarter demonstrates that our multi-year operating transformation is gaining traction, with disciplined execution and operational rigor.”

Net income attributable to Xylem for the quarter was $193 million, or $0.79 per share. Net income margin increased 90 basis points to 9.1 percent. These results are driven by strong operational performance and a reduction in the estimated loss on sale of businesses, partially offset by increased restructuring and realignment costs. Adjusted net income attributable to Xylem was $272 million, or $1.12 per share, which excludes the loss on sale of businesses, purchase accounting intangible amortization, restructuring and realignment costs, and special charges.

First-quarter adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) margin was 20.6 percent, reflecting a year-over-year increase of 20 basis points. Productivity savings and strong price realization drove the margin expansion, exceeding the impact of inflation, mix, and lower volumes.

Outlook

Xylem now forecasts full-year 2026 revenue of approximately $9.2 to $9.3 billion, up approximately 2 to 3 percent on a reported basis, versus 1 to 3 percent previously guided, and up approximately 2 to 4 percent on an organic basis, as previously guided.

Full-year 2026 adjusted EBITDA margin is expected to be approximately 22.9 to 23.3 percent, an increase of 70 to 110 basis points from Xylem’s 2025 adjusted results. This results in full-year adjusted earnings per share of $5.35 to $5.60, in line with the previous guidance range. Full-year free cash flow margin is still expected to be approximately 10.2 to 11.0 percent.

Further 2026 planning assumptions are included in Xylem’s first-quarter 2026 earnings materials posted at www.xylem.com/investors. Excluding revenue, Xylem provides guidance only on a non-GAAP basis due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting certain amounts that would be included in GAAP earnings, such as discrete tax items, without unreasonable effort.

Supplemental information on Xylem’s first-quarter earnings, as well as definitions of and reconciliations for certain non-GAAP items is posted at www.xylem.com/investors.

Xylem Inc. Non-GAAP Measures

Management reviews key performance indicators including revenue, gross margins, segment operating income and margins, orders growth, working capital and backlog, among others. In addition, we consider certain non-GAAP (or "adjusted") measures to be useful to management and investors evaluating our operating performance for the periods presented, and to provide a tool for evaluating our ongoing operations, liquidity and management of assets. This information can assist investors in assessing our financial performance and measures our ability to generate capital for deployment among competing strategic alternatives and initiatives, including but not limited to, dividends, acquisitions, share repurchases and debt repayment. Excluding revenue, Xylem provides guidance only on a non-GAAP basis due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting certain amounts that would be included in GAAP earnings, such as discrete tax items, without unreasonable effort. These adjusted metrics are consistent with how management views our business and are used to make financial, operating and planning decisions. These metrics, however, are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for revenue, operating income, net income, earnings per share (basic and diluted) or net cash from operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP. We consider the following items to represent non-GAAP measures that we consider to be key performance indicators, as well as the related reconciling items to the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

“Organic revenue” and “Organic orders” defined as revenue and orders, respectively, excluding the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency translation and contributions from acquisitions and divestitures. Divestitures include sales or discontinuance of insignificant portions of our business that did not meet the criteria for classification as a discontinued operation. The period-over-period change resulting from foreign currency translation impacts is determined by translating current period and prior period activity using the same currency conversion rate.

“EBITDA” defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization expense. “Adjusted EBITDA” and "Adjusted Segment EBITDA" reflect the adjustments to EBITDA and segment EBITDA, respectively, to exclude share-based compensation charges, restructuring and realignment costs, gain or loss from sale of businesses and special charges.

“Adjusted EBITDA Margin” and “Adjusted Segment EBITDA Margin” defined as adjusted EBITDA and adjusted segment EBITDA divided by total revenue and segment revenue, respectively.

“Adjusted Operating Income”, “Adjusted Segment Operating Income”, “Adjusted Net Income” and “Adjusted EPS” defined as operating income, segment operating income, net income attributable to Xylem and earnings per share attributable to Xylem, adjusted to exclude restructuring and realignment costs, amortization of acquired intangible assets, gain or loss from sale of businesses, special charges and tax-related special items, as applicable.

“Adjusted Operating Margin” and “Adjusted Segment Operating Margin” defined as adjusted operating income and adjusted segment operating income divided by total revenue and segment revenue, respectively.

“Free Cash Flow” defined as net cash from operating activities, as reported in the Statement of Cash Flows, less capital expenditures. Our definition of free cash flow does not consider certain non-discretionary cash payments, such as debt.

"Free Cash Flow Margin" defined as free cash flow, adjusted (as applicable) for significant cash paid or received for non-operational tax, acquisition or divestiture activities; divided by revenue.

“Realignment costs” defined as costs not included in restructuring costs that are incurred as part of actions taken to reposition our business, including items such as professional fees, severance, relocation, travel, facility set-up and other costs.

“Special charges” defined as non-recurring costs incurred by the Company, such as those related to acquisitions and integrations, divestitures and non-cash impairment charges.

“Tax-related special items” defined as tax items, such as tax return versus tax provision adjustments, tax exam impacts, tax law change impacts, excess tax benefits/losses and other discrete tax adjustments.
