Mark D. Morelli
Thanks, Ryan, and good morning, everyone. Thank you for joining us on the call today. We delivered strong second quarter results with core sales, adjusted operating profit and adjusted EPS exceeding our guidance, reflecting disciplined execution against a dynamic backdrop. Core sales growth of 11% was led by Mobility Technologies and Environmental and Fueling Solutions, which both grew over 15% in the quarter. Orders were up 8% organically, and our book-to-bill was approximately 1 in the quarter. We're encouraged by the market's acceptance of our new product introductions, validating the R&D investments we've made, strengthening our competitive advantage. The traction we are seeing demonstrates Vontier's unique position to capitalize on secular trends across our end markets. Our innovative solutions and deep domain expertise create a compelling value proposition for our customers, unlocking growth, improving productivity and elevating their customer experience. This is a testament to our team who has been instrumental in focusing our business on process improvements and new product innovation. I couldn't be more thankful for their hard work and dedication. Adjusted operating profit increased 15% year-over-year with margin expansion of 80 basis points. This improvement reflects the benefits of ongoing simplification efforts and productivity gains driven by the Vontier Business System and what we call our focus and prioritization process or our 80/20 initiatives. While tariff-related cost pressures are real, we were able to maintain positive price cost in the second quarter. We delivered another quarter of free cash flow conversion above seasonal norms. This enables us to maintain our dynamic capital allocation program with ongoing share repurchases at attractive levels and a bolt-on acquisition completed during the quarter. We continue to advance our strategic priorities with an intensifying focus on operational discipline and commercial excellence, critical in navigating the current macro environment. These efforts are underpinned by our 3 pillar value-creation framework, with Pillar 1 centered on self-help and Pillars 2 and 3 driving sustainable organic revenue growth. Under Pillar 1, optimizing our core, we delivered meaningful operational efficiencies in the first half, supported by our 80/20 process initiatives. At Fueling Solutions, we are driving further savings through product line simplification and lean manufacturing to countermeasure tariff-related cost headwinds. We've reduced labor costs by nearly 10% year-to-date at our Greensboro dispenser facility through increasing labor efficiency and reducing over time. At the same time, we've identified incremental simplification opportunities, including actions to reduce the cost of quality by more than half over the next couple of years. We're also moving forward on a number of opportunities to optimize our regional footprint in various international markets, ensuring we are aligning our resources to the most profitable regions and product lines. We're advancing an agreement to divest our European Service business, which exemplifies this effort. At Invenco, we set up our global software factory last year, which reduced our overall engineering labor cost by 30%. Invenco is on track to double its engineering velocity this year while driving R&D efficiency through automation, the use of AI and global scale. As it relates to tariffs, we've made significant progress on our mitigation initiatives year-to-date. From a supply chain standpoint, our primary focus is reducing our exposure to China with several major projects underway expected to complete in the second half. Within Repair Solutions, for example, we started the year with 20% exposure to China with the goal of reducing this to less than 10% by year-end. We implemented pricing actions mid-quarter, and we expect the benefits to ramp in Q3 and Q4 with price expected to offset about half of our updated tariff exposure. Innovation has been a cornerstone of our Pillar 2, expand the core initiatives and a key driver of above-market organic growth. Our disciplined investments in new product development are strategically aligned with powerful secular drivers, including digital transformation. This underpins our connected mobility strategy and positions us to capture evolving customer needs. The benefits are evident across our portfolio but are perhaps most visible at Mobility Technologies. As an example, the Invenco team has successfully accelerated adoption of the FlexPay 6 payment terminal with over 50% of new dispensers leaving the factory with the FlexPay 6 unit. Our market-leading global dispenser base provides us with a sizable funnel of upgrade and replacement opportunities ahead. As we migrate customers to FlexPay 6, we enable flexible on-site commerce, which unlocks revenue growth potential for customers and enables recurring revenue for Vontier. We are actively expanding our recurring revenue base, a key strategic initiative for Vontier. Invenco's recurring revenue, which accounts for about 35% of the base was up 17% year-over-year, as the installed base of iNFX continues to ramp and as the feature set continues to expand. We've nearly completed the initial deployment with Shell and continue to make good progress for Chevron and recently surpassed 1 billion transactions on our iNFX payment servers. Invenco's solutions cater to executing fuel and in-store commerce, driving more consumer engagement through loyalty and media and ensuring assets, physical and digital are available when a consumer is transacting. We are enabling all this with leading-edge technologies that are transforming and enhancing the way convenience retailers operate their businesses. Environmental and Fueling Solutions delivered broad-based growth across both above ground dispensers and underground environmental sensing and monitoring. Our Environmental Solutions business continues to capitalize on multiyear replacement opportunities, particularly through automated tank gauge upgrade with an installed base of over 350,000 ATG units globally. Our new TLS-450PLUS connected ATG, offers market-leading technology for advanced fuel management, enabling real-time monitoring, improved accuracy and proactive maintenance that reduce downtime and lowers operating costs for our customers. Just this quarter, we were thrilled to be selected by one of the largest global c-store operators in North America to upgrade their entire installed base of ATGs across 4,500 sites over the next 5 years. Alongside the equipment upgrade, this customer will adopt Veeder-Root's new cloud-based device management softwae. This application will collect data from on-site environmental devices across their network and produce outcomes that improve uptime and asset reliability as well as reduced maintenance costs. This integrated approach highlights our ability to cross-sell and deliver future- proof scalable solutions that unify forecourt and site management, helping our customers maximize operational efficiency and make smarter decisions across their entire network. It also highlights the meaningful progress we're making on our efforts to deliver fully integrated solutions and technologies by leveraging our relationships with some of the largest global convenience retail operators. Our commitment to new product development remains strong with R&D investments hovering around 6% of total sales. We're redeploying resources freed up by our Pillar 1 80/20 initiatives to create capacity for margin expansion and growth. This enables Pillar 2 successes, including a focus on connected hardware and smart software that enables higher recurring revenue streams across the portfolio. Given our strong first half results, we're raising our full year guide with adjusted EPS on track for high single-digit growth. While tariff headwinds and macro uncertainties are still expected to weigh on demand in the second half, particularly in Repair Solutions, key end markets such as convenience retail and fueling continue to show resilience. We are confident we're on the right path to delivering sustainable above-market growth. As we navigate through the remainder of the year, we'll remain agile and focused on controlling what we can, while delivering innovative solutions for our customers and driving value for our shareholders. With that, I'll turn the call over to Anshooman.
