    12 filing-based checks were evaluable.

    The full financial analysis shows each value, threshold, and sector limitation.

  • Revenue expanded

    Latest reported annual revenue changed +8.9% from the prior reported annual observation.

    Why this surfaced

Each filer's latest fiscal year as stored by the nightly crawl; fiscal year ends differ across the universe. A metric ranks only filers for which it is computable from filed facts. Ties split; a rank reads "better than N% of filers" in the metric's own direction. Descriptive and educational, not a rating.

Per fiscal year from filed facts: cash conversion = operating cash flow / net income (net income > 0); cash-flow accrual ratio = (net income - operating cash flow) / average total assets; balance-sheet accrual ratio = change in net operating assets / average net operating assets, NOA = (assets - cash) - (liabilities - debt). Descriptive; a missing input yields a missing ratio. High accrual ratios and cash conversion well below one are the measures the accruals literature associates with less persistent earnings; they are screens to read the cash-flow statement with, not conclusions. The per-year series is part of Pro risk analysis.

Point-in-time ledger

first-reported vs latest filing · periods since 2020-01-01 · 0 changed periods

No period on file has changed between its first report and the latest filing carrying it.

First filing reporting each period vs the latest filing carrying it (10-K and 10-Q only, periods since 2020, the extractor's winning tag per concept); a change under 0.5% is treated as rounding. A change can be a restatement, a reclassification or a re-tagging in a later comparative column; the two filings are linked so the reader can see which. Descriptive, not a verdict.

3. Acquisitions Fiscal 2026 Acquisition During the nine months ended June 26, 2026, we acquired one business for a cash purchase price of $200 million, net of cash acquired. The acquisition includes certain earn-out provisions based on business performance for which we have estimated the acquisition-date fair value to be approximately $150 million. The acquired business has been reported as part of our Industrial Solutions segment from the date of acquisition. Fiscal 2025 Acquisitions Richards Manufacturing Co. On April 1, 2025, we acquired 100% of Richards Manufacturing Co. (Richards Manufacturing), a U.S.-based producer of overhead and underground electrical and gas distribution products, for cash of approximately $2.3 billion, net of cash acquired. The acquired business has been reported as part of the energy business within our Industrial Solutions segment from the date of acquisition.

9. Commitments and Contingencies Legal Proceedings In the normal course of business, we are subject to various legal proceedings and claims, including patent infringement claims, product liability matters, employment disputes, disputes on agreements, other commercial disputes, environmental matters, antitrust claims, trade compliance matters, and tax matters, including non-income tax matters such as value added tax, sales and use tax, real estate tax, and transfer tax. Although it is not feasible to predict the outcome of these proceedings, based upon our experience, current information, and applicable law, we do not expect that the outcome of these proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material effect on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. Trade Compliance Matters As previously reported, as part of our ongoing internal compliance activities, we conducted an investigation related to country of origin for import matters. During the quarter ended June 26, 2026, we filed a perfected prior disclosure to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Agency (CBP) regarding Section 301 unpaid duties, fees, and interest for certain imported products into the U.S. and paid $14 million to CBP to resolve this matter. Although CBP has not yet completed its review of the disclosure, we do not expect that the outcome of the review will have a material effect on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

Segment reporting · 5,666 characters as filed

16. Segment and Geographic Data Effective at the beginning of the third quarter of fiscal 2026, we realigned a product line within the Transportation Solutions segment. The realignment did not result in any changes at the segment level. The following information reflects our current reporting structure. Prior period results have been recast to conform to the current reporting structure. As a result of the realignment, which was not significant, $30 million and $38 million of net sales were transferred from the commercial transportation business to the automotive business within the Transportation Solutions segment for the six months ended March 27, 2026 and nine months ended June 27, 2025, respectively.
