ITT Hosts 2022 Investor Conference; Announces Long-Term Financial Outlook

June 16, 2022-- ITT Inc. (NYSE: ITT) today will host its investor conference led by Chief Executive Officer and President Luca Savi and other members of the ITT leadership team. The company will deliver a series of presentations focusing on its strategic priorities, innovative technologies, long-term vision, and financial framework. The event begins at 1 PM ET.

“We are excited to host ITT’s first investor conference since 2011. Today we will demonstrate the strength of ITT’s market-leading positions in growing end markets and innovations aligned to electrification and sustainability that will drive sustained differentiation in each of our three businesses. Investors will see firsthand how the breadth of our technologies and our highly engineered solutions will deliver value for our customers and shareholders now and over the long term,” Savi said.

“Whether it is Motion Technologies’ industry-leading positions on electrified vehicles, the differentiated flow technology in Industrial Process, or Connect & Control Technologies’ commercial aerospace content, ITT is poised to outperform over the long term,” Savi concluded.

In connection with the conference, ITT also announced long-term financial targets, which comprise 5 to 7 percent revenue growth, 20 percent adjusted segment operating margin, over 10 percent adjusted earnings per share growth, and a free cash flow margin range of 11 percent to 13 percent, all based on actual results for the year-ending December 31, 2021.

The company will also host an interactive technology demonstration at the event, which will take place at Current at Chelsea Piers in New York, NY.

Where in any forward-looking statement we express an expectation or belief as to future results or events, such expectation or belief is based on current plans and expectations of our management, expressed in good faith, and believed to have a reasonable basis. However, we cannot provide any assurance that the expectation or belief will occur or that anticipated results will be achieved or accomplished.

  • the risk of material business interruptions, particularly at our manufacturing facilities;
  • risk of liabilities from past divestitures and spin-offs;
  • failure of portfolio management strategies, including cost-saving initiatives, to meet expectations;

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company has provided forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures for adjusted segment operating margin, adjusted earnings per share and free cash flow margin. It is not possible, without unreasonable efforts, to estimate the impacts of foreign currency fluctuations, acquisitions and certain other special items that may occur in the future as these items are inherently uncertain and difficult to predict. As a result, the Company is unable to quantify certain amounts that would be included in a reconciliation of adjusted segment operating margin, adjusted earnings per share and free cash flow margin to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures without unreasonable efforts and has not provided reconciliations for these forward looking non-GAAP financial measures.
