Vontier Reports Strong Third Quarter Results and Raises Full Year Adjusted EPS Guidance
Vontier Corp reported quarterly results highlighted by GAAP diluted net EPS of $0.73; Adjusted diluted net EPS of $0.92, according to its earnings release filed with an 8-K Thursday.
Operating cash flow was $142.8 million; Adjusted free cash flow was $133.1 million, representing 107% adjusted free cash flow conversion. Initiates Q4 2026 guidance for adjusted diluted net EPS of $0.99 to $1.03. Raises FY 2026 guidance for adjusted diluted net EPS of $3.60 to $3.64. Repurchased 2.6 million shares for $80.0 million during the quarter; Year-to-date, share repurchases total 8.8 million shares for $280.0 million.
Results detail
Further figures in the release included Adjusted operating profit margin expansion of 180 basis points year-over-year at the midpoint; Adjusted diluted net EPS in the range of $3.60 to $3.64; Adjusted free cash flow conversion of 95%; Adjusted operating profit margin expansion of 280 basis points year-over-year at the midpoint.
The filing is an Item 2.02 results announcement furnished with Exhibit 99.1. Comparisons use the year-earlier period as presented by Vontier Corp unless the release specifies another baseline. Where both GAAP and non-GAAP metrics appear, both are summarized when the extract includes them.
Segment mix, cash flow and any outlook language in the release are the usual secondary reads after the headline revenue and earnings figures. One-time items—restructuring, impairments, gains on sales or legal settlements—can move GAAP profit without changing the run-rate story, so reconciliations remain essential.
Why it matters
For retail investors, the Vontier Corp print is a check on whether growth, margins and cash generation are moving together. The figures above come from the company’s Exhibit 99.1 earnings materials; how they stack up against the prior-year run rate and any guide published with the release will shape the near-term debate.
