DOVER REPORTS FIRST QUARTER2013 RESULTS; REAFFIRMS FULL- YEAR OUTLOOK

• Reports quarterly revenue of $2.0 billion, an increase of 4% over the prior year

• Delivers quarterly diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of $1.12, an increase of 12% over last year

• Achieves adjusted quarterly diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of $1.10, excluding tax benefits of $0.02, up 9% from an adjusted prior year

• Reaffirms outlook for full year revenue growth at 7% to 9%, and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of $5.05 to $5.35

Downers Grove, Illinois, April 17, 2013 — Dover (NYSE: DOV) announced today that for the first quarter ended March 31, 2013, revenue was $2.0 billion, an increase of 4% over the prior-year period. The revenue increase was driven by a 6% increase from acquisitions offset by organic decline of 1% and a minor impact from foreign exchange. Earnings from continuing operations were $197.0 million, or $1.12 diluted earnings per share (“EPS”), compared to $186.4 million, or $1.00 EPS, in the prior-year period, representing increases of 6% and 12%, respectively. Excluding the impact of discrete tax items of $0.02 EPS recognized in the current quarter and $0.01 EPS recognized in the prior-year period, adjusted EPS from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2013 was $1.10, reflecting an increase of 9% over an adjusted EPS of $1.01 in the prior-year period.

Commenting on the first quarter results, Dover's President and Chief Executive Officer, Robert A. Livingston, said, “We were pleased with our first quarter results. We achieved solid revenue growth from our businesses serving the production and downstream energy markets and the consumer electronics market. These results helped offset the anticipated revenue decline driven by a lower North American rig count and reduced refrigeration activity, principally associated with a major retailer, as well as soft European industrial markets. In addition, our recently acquired refrigeration business, Anthony International, is off to a great start and we are enthusiastic about Dover's continued strength in that market. We also made progress on our $1 billion share repurchase program, repurchasing 4 million shares in the first quarter.”

“I am encouraged by our solid seasonal bookings growth as we begin the second quarter. In total, bookings grew 7% and resulted in a book-to-bill of 1.09.”

“Looking ahead, our full year view of 2013 is essentially unchanged from our previous guidance. We continue to expect full year organic growth of 3% to 5%, complemented by acquisition growth of 4%, resulting in total revenue growth of 7% to 9%. Accordingly, we are reaffirming our full year diluted EPS from continuing operations will be in the range of $5.05 - $5.35.”

Net earnings for the first quarter of 2013 were $210.0 million or $1.20 EPS, including earnings from discontinued operations of $13.0 million, or $0.07 EPS, compared to net earnings of $196.1 million, or $1.05 EPS, for the same period of 2012, which included earnings from discontinued operations of $9.7 million, or $0.05 EPS.

Dover will host a webcast of its first quarter 2013 conference call at 10:00 A.M. Eastern Time (9:00 A.M. Central Time) on Wednesday, April 17, 2013. The webcast can be accessed on the Dover website at www.dovercorporation.com. The conference call will also be made available for replay on the website. Additional information on Dover’s first quarter results and its operating segments can also be found on the Company’s website.
