    CLEVELAND, May 16, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Parker Hannifin Corporation (NYSE: PH), the global leader in motion and control technologies, today hosted its 2024 investor meeting where members of the Office of the Chief Executive presented an update on the company’s ongoing transformation, detailed how Parker is positioned for continued growth from secular trends, reinforced the importance of The Win StrategyTM in driving growth and margin expansion, and announced new five-year financial performance targets for fiscal year 2029. The Win StrategyTM is the Parker business system and establishes goals and strategies for engaged people, premier customer experience, profitable growth and financial performance.

    “Parker is a very different company today,” said Jenny Parmentier, Chairman and CEO. “Our portfolio of interconnected technologies strengthens our competitive position, increases resiliency, and aligns us with secular trends that are expected to sustain organic sales growth. In addition, the Win Strategy provides the necessary tools to drive continuous improvement and operational excellence which compounds performance. Given our performance and our promising future, we have announced new five-year targets that would keep us among the top quartile of our peer companies.”

    Parmentier began the meeting with a strategic overview of Parker’s ongoing transformation and a review of how Parker is positioned for growth.  Andy Ross, President and Chief Operating Officer provided an overview of how Parker’s highly engaged global team deploys The Win StrategyTM 3.0 to drive operational excellence and deliver exceptional results with further opportunities for growth and margin expansion. A financial review by Todd Leombruno, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, highlighted Parker’s ongoing ability to generate strong cash flow leaving substantial capital deployment optionality to drive shareholder returns.  A replay of the presentations is available at investors.parker.com.

    The company noted the following significant highlights from the presentations:

    • Parker has built a high-performance culture where team members can directly contribute to improved results using high performance teams to drive improvements in areas such as safety, quality, lean and kaizen.
    • The company is positioned to benefit from secular growth trends such as aerospace, digitalization, electrification, clean technologies, and the mega capex growth cycle related to infrastructure spending and global supply chain near-shoring.
    • Parker has greatly increased its exposure to longer cycle markets that allows for more resilient financial performance.
    • The company announced five-year targets through fiscal year 2029 that include:
      • 4-6% organic sales growth CAGR   
      • 27% adjusted segment operating margin, an increase of 200 basis points from the previous target
      • 28% adjusted EBITDA margin, an increase of 300 basis points from the previous target
      • 17% free cash flow margin, an increase of 100 basis points from the previous target
      • 10%+ adjusted earnings per share CAGR

    Parmentier added, “Our targets indicate that we can continue transforming Parker into a faster growing, more resilient, higher margin company. With our strong culture and highly engaged team members we can continue to take Parker’s performance to the next level and create significant shareholder value.”

    Note on Non-GAAP Financial Measures  

    This press release contains references to non-GAAP financial information including (a) adjusted earnings per share; (b) adjusted segment operating margin; (c) adjusted EBITDA margin; (d) free cash flow margin; and (e) organic sales growth. Although adjusted earnings per share, segment operating margin, adjusted EBITDA margin, free cash flow margin and organic sales growth are not measures of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, we believe that they are useful to an investor in evaluating the company performance for the periods presented. The non-GAAP metrics included in our new 5-year targets for fiscal year 2029 could not be reconciled without unreasonable effort.
