"We achieved a quarterly free cash flow conversion of greater than 100 percent, and moving forward, we expect that conversion rate to be more stable as a pure-play business." AeroTech's financial results were transitioned to discontinued operations beginning in the second quarter of 2023, and prior period financial results have been recast accordingly. The below paragraphs reflect JBT's results from continuing operations. Third quarter 2023 revenue of $404 million increased 1 percent year over year driven by 3 percent growth from acquisitions, which was partially offset by a 2 percent decline in organic revenue.

(3) Impact on tax provision was calculated using the enacted rate for the relevant jurisdiction for each period shown. The above table reports adjusted income from continuing operations and adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, which are non-GAAP financial measures. We use these measures internally to make operating decisions and for the planning and forecasting of future periods, and therefore provide this information to investors because we believe it allows more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of our ongoing operating results, without the fluctuations in the amount of certain costs that do not reflect our underlying operating results.

The above table reports EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures. Given the Company’s focus on growth through acquisitions, management believes EBITDA facilitates an evaluation of business performance while excluding the impact of amortization due to the step up in value of intangible assets, and the depreciation of fixed assets. We use Adjusted EBITDA internally to make operating decisions and believe that adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors as a measure of the Company’s operational performance and a way to evaluate and compare operating performance against peers in the Company's industry.

The above table reports adjusted income from continuing operations and adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, which are non-GAAP financial measures.

The above table reports EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures. Given the Company’s focus on growth through acquisitions, management believes EBITDA facilitates an evaluation of business performance while excluding the impact of amortization due to the step up in value of intangible assets, and the depreciation of fixed assets. We use Adjusted EBITDA internally to make operating decisions and believe that adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors as a measure of the Company’s operational performance and a way to evaluate and compare operating performance against peers in the Company's industry.

JBT Corporation (NYSE: JBT), a leading global technology solutions provider to high-value segments of the food & beverage industry, today reported results for the third quarter of 2023. "During the third quarter, we achieved strong margins and double-digit, year-over-year growth in orders," said Brian Deck, President and Chief Executive Officer. "The demand environment is showing signs of improvement in Europe and Asia, and healthier dynamics in the poultry end markets are expected to translate to better order activity. Additionally, with the completion of the AeroTech sale, we have a strong balance sheet and ample liquidity to continue to execute on our Elevate 2.0 strategic priorities." Comparisons in this news release are to the comparable period of the prior year, unless otherwise noted. An earnings presentation with supplemental information is also available on the Company's Investor Relations website at https://ir.jbtc.com/events-and-presentations/. Third Quarter 2023 Results "We continued to deliver solid year-over-year improvement in profitability as a result of our pricing actions, restructuring program, and supply chain efforts," said Matt Meister, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. "We achieved a quarterly free cash flow conversion of greater than 100 percent, and moving forward, we expect that conversion rate to be more stable as a pure-play business." AeroTech's financial results were transitioned to discontinued operations beginning in the second quarter of 2023, and prior period financial results have been recast accordingly. The below paragraphs reflect JBT's results from continuing operations. Third quarter 2023 revenue of $404 million increased 1 percent year over year driven by 3 percent growth from acquisitions, which was partially offset by a 2 percent decline in organic revenue. Income from continuing operations of $31 million increased 19 percent. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations of $66 million increased 9 percent, and the adjusted EBITDA margin of 16.4 percent increased 120 basis points. During the third quarter, JBT incurred $6 million of expense and realized approximately $3.5 million in savings related to its ongoing restructuring program. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations of $0.95 increased 19 percent, and adjusted EPS from continuing operations of $1.11 increased 16 percent. Included in the third quarter 2023 EPS was a $0.09 discrete tax benefit. Orders were $398 million, an increase of 14 percent, and backlog of $689 million increased 4 percent. JBT generated year to date operating cash flow from continuing operations of $96 million. Year to date free cash flow was $62 million. As a result of JBT's strong cash flow and the proceeds from the sale of AeroTech, the leverage ratio at the end of the quarter was 0.5x net debt to trailing twelve months adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations. 2023 Outlook for Continuing Operations JBT is updating and narrowing its guidance for full year 2023 based on the fourth quarter outlook and year-to-date performance. Guidance Guidance $ millions except EPS Q4 2023 FY 2023 Revenue growth (year over year) 0 - 4% 4.5 - 5.5% Income from continuing operations $39 - $43 $113 - $117 Adjusted EBITDA(1) $73 - $79 $265 - $271 Adjusted EBITDA margin 16.5 - 17.0% 16.0 - 16.25% GAAP EPS $1.20 - $1.35 $3.50 - $3.65 Adjusted EPS(1) $1.25 - $1.40 $3.95 - $4.10 (1) Non-GAAP figure.

Additionally, JBT expects to incur approximately $1.5 million in restructuring costs, $1 million in LIFO expense, and $0.5 million in M&A related costs. The tax rate is expected to be 22 - 23 percent, which is prior to any discrete items.

(3) Impact on tax provision was calculated using the enacted rate for the relevant jurisdiction for each period shown. The above table reports adjusted income from continuing operations and adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, which are non-GAAP financial measures. We use these measures internally to make operating decisions and for the planning and forecasting of future periods, and therefore provide this information to investors because we believe it allows more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of our ongoing operating results, without the fluctuations in the amount of certain costs that do not reflect our underlying operating results.

(2) M&A related costs include integration costs, amortization of inventory step-up from business combinations, earn out adjustments to fair value, advisory and transaction costs for both potential and completed M&A transactions and strategy. The above table reports EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures. Given the Company’s focus on growth through acquisitions, management believes EBITDA facilitates an evaluation of business performance while excluding the impact of amortization due to the step up in value of intangible assets, and the depreciation of fixed assets. We use Adjusted EBITDA internally to make operating decisions and believe that adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors as a measure of the Company’s operational performance and a way to evaluate and compare operating performance against peers in the Company's industry.

We use free cash flow internally as a key indicator of our liquidity and ability to service debt, invest in business combinations, and return money to shareholders and believe this information is useful to investors because it provides an understanding of the cash available to fund these initiatives. For free cash flow purposes, we consider contributions to pension plans to be more comparable to payment of debt, and therefore exclude these contributions from the calculation of free cash flow.
