Net revenue of $838 million increased 10% compared to the prior year primarily due to the FPM acquisition. On an organic basis, which excludes the impacts of acquisitions and foreign currency exchange rates, net revenue decreased 1%, as favorable pricing and higher aftermarket parts and service revenue were more than offset by lower capital equipment volume.

Net income of $12 million, or $0.17 per share, decreased from $0.24 per share in the prior year primarily due to an increase in business integration costs, higher tax expense, cost inflation, lower volume, and higher interest expense, partially offset by a gain in the quarter related to the previously announced sale-leaseback transaction, the FPM acquisition, and favorable pricing.

Adjusted net income of $71 million resulted in adjusted EPS of $1.01, a decrease of $0.12, or 11%, primarily due to cost inflation, lower volume, and an increase in interest expense, partially offset by the FPM acquisition, favorable pricing, and cost actions, including savings from the previously announced restructuring. The adjusted effective tax rate for the quarter was 27.4%, a decrease of 100 basis points compared to the prior year.

Adjusted EBITDA of $144 million decreased 2% year over year. On an organic basis, adjusted EBITDA decreased 13%.

Hillenbrand’s full year net revenue of $3.18 billion increased 13% compared to the prior year primarily due to the FPM acquisition. On an organic basis, net revenue was down 5% as favorable pricing and higher aftermarkets parts and service revenue was more than offset by lower capital equipment volume. Full year organic APS net revenue was down 2%, while MTS net revenue was down 11%.

Net loss of $213 million, or $(3.03) per share, decreased $4.53 compared to the prior year largely due to $265 million in non-cash impairment charges incurred in the fiscal third quarter related to the MTS segment, as well as an increase in business integration and restructuring costs, lower volume, cost inflation, higher interest expense, and non-cash pension settlement charges, partially offset by the FPM acquisition, favorable pricing, and a gain related to the previously announced sale-leaseback transaction.

Adjusted net income of $234 million resulted in adjusted EPS of $3.32, a decrease of $0.20, or 6%, primarily due to lower organic volume, cost inflation, and an increase in interest expense, partially offset by the FPM acquisition, favorable pricing, and the impact of cost actions, including savings from the previously announced restructuring. The adjusted effective tax rate for the year was 28.1%, a decrease of 140 basis points compared to the prior year.

Adjusted EBITDA of $512 million increased 6% year over year. On an organic basis, adjusted EBITDA decreased 12%. Adjusted EBITDA margin of 16.1% was down 100 basis points.

Balance Sheet, Cash Flow and Capital Allocation1

Hillenbrand generated cash flow from operations of $191 million in the year, a decrease of $16 million year-over-year, primarily driven by lower earnings and fewer customer advances due to a decrease in capital equipment orders, partially offset by reduced inventory and cash received as part of a one-time pension plan settlement completed in the year. Capital expenditures were approximately $54 million in the year. During the year, the Company returned approximately $63 million to shareholders in the form of quarterly dividends.

As of September 30, 2024, net debt was $1.69 billion, and the net debt to pro forma adjusted EBITDA ratio was 3.3x. Liquidity was approximately $799 million, including $199 million in cash on hand and the remainder available under our revolving credit facility.

Fiscal 2025 Outlook

Hillenbrand is providing annual guidance for fiscal year 2025 and quarterly guidance for fiscal Q1 2025.

“Entering fiscal 2025, we continue to operate in an uncertain global macroeconomic environment. Due to lower starting backlog and expected trajectory of orders, we anticipate total company revenue will be down mid-single digits at the midpoint, primarily driven by our APS segment. Debt reduction remains our top priority for cash, though we expect the timeframe for returning to our net leverage guardrails to extend beyond fiscal 2025 due to the uncertain timing of order recovery. We remain focused on driving productivity and managing costs appropriately as we navigate these near-term headwinds, while continuing to innovate across our leading product offerings to keep us well positioned for long-term growth,” said Bob VanHimbergen, SVP and Chief Financial Officer of Hillenbrand.

In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this earnings release also contains non-GAAP operating performance measures. These non-GAAP measures are referred to as “adjusted” measures and exclude the following items:

•business acquisition, divestiture, and integration costs;

•restructuring and restructuring related charges;

•impairment charges;

•gain on sale of property, plant, and equipment;

•intangible asset amortization;

•pension settlement charges;

•inventory step-up costs related to acquisitions;

•costs associated with debt financing activities;

•other non-recurring costs related to a discrete commercial dispute;

•gains and losses on divestitures;

•other individually immaterial one-time costs;

•the related income tax impact for all of these items; and

•the revaluation of deferred tax balances resulting from fluctuations in currency exchange rates and non-routine changes in tax rates for certain foreign jurisdictions.

Refer to the Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures for further information on these adjustments.Non-GAAP information is provided as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Hillenbrand uses this non-GAAP information internally to measure operating segment performance and make operating decisions and believes it is helpful to investors because it allows more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of ongoing operating results. The information can also be used to perform trend analysis and to better identify operating trends that may otherwise be masked or distorted by items such as the above excluded items. Hillenbrand believes this information provides a higher degree of transparency.

One important non-GAAP measure Hillenbrand uses is adjusted earnings before interest, income tax, depreciation, and amortization (“adjusted EBITDA”). A part of Hillenbrand’s strategy is to selectively acquire companies that we believe can benefit from the Hillenbrand Operating Model (“HOM”) to spur faster and more profitable growth. Given that strategy, it is a natural consequence to incur related expenses, such as amortization from acquired intangible assets and additional interest expense from debt-funded acquisitions. Accordingly, we use adjusted EBITDA, among other measures, to monitor our business performance. We also use “adjusted net income” and “adjusted diluted earnings per share (EPS),” which are defined as net income and earnings per share, respectively, each excluding items described in connection with adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted EPS are not recognized terms under GAAP and therefore do not purport to be alternatives to net income or to diluted EPS, as applicable. Further, Hillenbrand’s measures of

adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted EPS may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Organic revenue and organic adjusted EBITDA are defined respectively as net revenue and adjusted EBITDA excluding recent acquisitions, including FPM and Peerless Food Equipment, and adjusting for the effects of foreign currency exchange. In addition, the ratio of net debt to pro forma adjusted EBITDA is a key financial measure that is used by management to assess Hillenbrand’s borrowing capacity (and is calculated as the ratio of total debt less cash and cash equivalents to the trailing twelve months pro forma adjusted EBITDA). Trailing twelve months pro forma adjusted EBITDA is defined as adjusted EBITDA including adjusted EBITDA directly attributable to FPM in the trailing twelve month period prior to Hillenbrand’s acquisition of FPM. Hillenbrand uses organic and pro forma measures to assess performance of its reportable operating segments and the Company in total without the impact of recent acquisitions and divestitures.

Hillenbrand calculates the foreign currency impact on net revenue, adjusted EBITDA, and backlog in order to better measure the comparability of results between periods. We calculate the foreign currency impact by translating current year results at prior year foreign exchange rates. This information is provided because exchange rates can distort the underlying change in sales, either positively or negatively.

Another important operational measure used is backlog. Backlog is not a term recognized under GAAP; however, it is a common measurement used in industries with extended lead times for order fulfillment (long-term contracts), like those in which our reportable operating segments compete. Backlog represents the amount of net revenue that we expect to realize on contracts awarded to our reportable operating segments. For purposes of calculating backlog, 100% of estimated net revenue attributable to consolidated subsidiaries is included. Backlog includes expected net revenue from large systems and equipment, as well as aftermarket parts, components, and service. The length of time that projects remain in backlog can span from days for aftermarket parts or service to approximately 18 to 24 months for larger system sales within the Advanced Process Solutions reportable operating segment. The majority of the backlog within the Molding Technology Solutions reportable operating segment is expected to be fulfilled within the next twelve months. Backlog includes expected net revenue from the remaining portion of firm orders not yet completed, as well as net revenue from change orders to the extent that they are reasonably expected to be realized. We include in backlog the full contract award, including awards subject to further customer approvals, which we expect to result in revenue in future periods. In accordance with industry practice, our contracts may include provisions for cancellation, termination, or suspension at the discretion of the customer.

Hillenbrand expects that future net revenue associated with our reportable operating segments will be influenced by order backlog because of the lead time involved in fulfilling engineered-to-order equipment for customers. Although backlog can be an indicator of future net revenue, it does not include projects and parts orders that are booked and shipped within the same quarter. The timing of order placement, size, extent of customization, and customer delivery dates can create fluctuations in backlog and net revenue. Net revenue attributable to backlog may also be affected by foreign exchange fluctuations for orders denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars.

See below for a reconciliation from GAAP operating performance measures to the most directly comparable non-GAAP (adjusted) financial performance measures.Given that backlog is an operational measure and that the Company’s methodology for calculating backlog does not meet the definition of a non-GAAP financial measure, as that term is defined by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, a quantitative reconciliation is not required or provided. In addition, forward-looking revenue, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, and adjusted earnings per share for 2025 exclude potential charges or gains that may be recorded during the fiscal year, including among other things, items described above in connection with these and other “adjusted” measures. Hillenbrand thus also does not attempt to provide reconciliations of such forward-looking non-GAAP earnings guidance to the comparable GAAP measure, as permitted by Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K, because the impact and timing of these potential charges or gains is inherently uncertain and difficult to predict and is unavailable without unreasonable efforts. In addition, the Company believes such reconciliations would imply a degree of precision and certainty that could be confusing to investors. Such items could have a substantial impact on GAAP measures of Hillenbrand’s financial performance.

(1)Due to the occurrence of a net loss on a GAAP basis for the year ended September 30, 2024, potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the calculation of GAAP earnings per share, as they would have an anti-dilutive effect. However, as net income was earned on a non-GAAP basis, these shares have a dilutive effect on adjusted EPS and are included here.

Forward-Looking Statements

Throughout this earnings release, we make a number of “forward-looking statements,” including statements that are within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and that are intended to be covered by the safe harbor provided under these sections. As the words imply, these are statements about future sales, earnings, cash flow, results of operations, uses of cash, financings, share repurchases, ability to meet deleveraging goals, and other measures of financial performance or potential future plans or events, strategies, objectives, beliefs, prospects, assumptions, expectations, and projected costs or savings or transactions of the Company that might or might not happen in the future, as contrasted with historical information. Forward-looking statements are based on assumptions that we believe are reasonable, but by their very nature are subject to a wide range of risks. If our assumptions prove inaccurate or unknown risks and uncertainties materialize, actual results could vary materially from Hillenbrand’s expectations and projections.

Words that could indicate that we are making forward-looking statements include the following:

intend	believe	plan	expect	may	goal	would	project	position	future	outlook
become	pursue	estimate	will	forecast	continue	could	anticipate	remain	likely
target	encourage	promise	improve	progress	potential	should	impact	strategy	assume

This is not an exhaustive list, but is intended to give you an idea of how we try to identify forward-looking statements. The absence of any of these words, however, does not mean that the statement is not forward-looking.

Here is the key point:Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or events, and actual results or events could differ materially from those set forth in any forward-looking statements. Any number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, could cause our performance to differ significantly from what is described in the forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to: global market and economic conditions, including those related to the continued volatility in the financial markets, including as a result of the United States (“U.S.”) presidential election; the risk of business disruptions associated with information technology, cyber-attacks, or catastrophic losses affecting infrastructure; increasing competition for highly skilled and talented workers, as well as labor shortages; closures or slowdowns and changes in labor costs and labor difficulties; uncertainty related to environmental regulation and industry standards, as well as physical risks of climate change; uncertainty related to environmental regulation, including the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) final climate rules and litigation regarding its enforceability; increased costs, poor quality, or unavailability of raw materials or certain outsourced services and supply chain disruptions; economic and financial conditions including volatility in interest and exchange rates, commodity and equity prices and the value of financial assets; uncertainty in U.S. global trade policy and risks with governmental instability in certain parts of the world such as Germany; our level of international sales and operations; the impact of incurring significant amounts of indebtedness and any inability of the Company to respond to changes in its business or make future desirable acquisitions; the ability of the Company to comply with financial or other covenants in debt agreements; negative effects of acquisitions, including the Schenck Process Food and Performance Materials (“FPM”) business and Linxis Group SAS (“Linxis”) acquisitions, on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and financial performance (including the ability of the Company to maintain relationships with its customers, suppliers, and others with whom it does business); the possibility that the anticipated benefits from acquisitions including the FPM and Linxis acquisitions cannot be realized by the Company in full or at all, or may take longer to realize than expected; risks that the integrations of FPM or Linxis or other acquired businesses disrupt current operations or pose potential difficulties in employee retention or otherwise affect financial or operating results; competition in the industries in which we operate, including on price; cyclical demand for industrial capital goods; the ability to recognize the benefits of any acquisition or divestiture, including potential synergies and cost savings or the failure of the Company or any acquired company to achieve its plans and objectives generally; impairment charges to goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets; impacts of decreases in demand or changes in technological advances, laws, or regulation on the net revenues that we derive from the plastics industry; changes in food consumption patterns due to dietary trends, or economic conditions, or other reasons; our reliance upon employees, agents, and business partners to comply with laws in many countries and jurisdictions; the impact to the Company’s effective tax rate of changes in the mix of earnings or in tax laws and certain other tax-related matters; exposure to tax uncertainties and audits; involvement in claims, lawsuits, and governmental proceedings related to operations; uncertainty in the U.S. political and regulatory environment, including as a result of the U.S. presidential election; adverse foreign currency fluctuations; labor disruptions; and the effect of certain provisions of the Company’s governing documents and Indiana law that could decrease the trading price of the Company’s common stock. Shareholders, potential investors, and other readers are urged to consider these risks and uncertainties in evaluating forward looking statements and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements. For a more in-depth discussion of these and other factors that could cause actual results to differ from those contained in forward-looking statements, see the discussions under the heading “Risk Factors” in Hillenbrand’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and in any subsequently filed Form 10-Q. Any forward-looking statement made by us in any SEC filing is based only on information currently available to us and speaks only as of the date on which it is made. We

undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.
