Amortization expense associated with definite-lived intangible assets was $ million and $ million during the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $ million and $ million during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Future amortization expense associated with these intangible assets is estimated to be $ million for the remainder of 2025, $ million in 2026, $ million in 2027, $ million in 2028, $ million in 2029, and $ million in 2030. The Company amortizes intangible assets with definite lives using either an accelerated method that reflects the pattern in which economic benefits of the intangible assets are consumed and results in higher amortization in the earlier years of the assets' useful lives, or using a straight-line method. Approximately % of the gross value of definite-lived intangible assets follow an accelerated amortization method.

The Company completed its annual goodwill impairment test as of April 1, 2025. For each of the Company's reporting units, the Company elected to utilize the quantitative goodwill impairment testing process, as permitted by the accounting guidance, by comparing the estimated fair value of the reporting units to their carrying values. If the estimated fair value exceeds its carrying value, no impairment exists.

Goodwill impairment testing requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units, assigning assets and liabilities to reporting units and determining the fair value of each reporting unit. Significant judgment is required to estimate the fair value of reporting units including estimating future cash flows, determining appropriate discount rates and other assumptions, including assumptions about secular economic and market conditions. The Company uses internal discounted cash flow models to estimate fair value. These cash flow estimates are derived from historical experience, third party end market data, and future long-term business plans and include assumptions of future sales growth, gross margin, operating margin, terminal growth rate, and the application of an appropriate discount rate. Significant changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value and/or goodwill impairment for each reporting unit. The Company believes that its estimated aggregate fair value of its reporting units is reasonable when compared to the Company's market capitalization on the valuation date.

As of April 1, 2025, the impairment testing resulted in implied fair values for each reporting unit that significantly exceeded such reporting unit's carrying value, including goodwill. The Company did not have any reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts.

Deferred compensation plans
 
The Company offers certain employees the opportunity to participate in non-qualified deferred compensation plans. A participant’s deferrals are invested in a variety of participant-directed debt and equity mutual funds that are classified as trading securities. The Company purchased $ million and $ million of trading securities related to these deferred compensation plans during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As a result of participant distributions, the Company sold $ million of these trading securities during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and $ million during the six months ended June 30, 2024. The unrealized gains and losses associated with these trading securities are directly offset by the changes in the fair value of the underlying deferred compensation plan obligation.

2025 Credit Facility

On March 25, 2025, the Company, as borrower, and each foreign subsidiary borrower from time to time party thereto (collectively, the “Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers”) entered into a credit agreement with a syndicate of lenders and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, that provides for a $ billion committed unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”). The obligations of the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers (if any) under the Revolving Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Company.

Commitments under the Revolving Credit Agreement may be conditionally increased to an aggregate amount not to exceed $ billion. The Revolving Credit Agreement includes a $ million sub-limit for the issuance of letters of credit. The sum of the dollar amount of loans and letters of credits to the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers under the Revolving Credit Agreement may not exceed $ million.

The interest rate applicable to borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement is either (i) the alternate base rate (as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement) or (ii) the term SOFR rate (as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement) plus an applicable margin based on the Company's credit ratings.

All revolving loans outstanding under the Revolving Credit Agreement will be due and payable on March 25, 2030. The Revolving Credit Agreement provides for up to maturity extensions. As of June 30, 2025, the credit facility was undrawn.

The Revolving Credit Agreement contains a sole financial covenant requiring that, as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, the ratio of total indebtedness to total capitalization shall not be greater than %. The Company was in compliance with this covenant as of June 30, 2025.

2021 Credit Facility

million shares of common stock to settle awards of restricted stock, performance shares, or SARs. The Company issues new shares to settle stock-based awards. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company's grant of stock-based awards included restricted stock, SARs and performance shares. There were no material awards granted during the three months ended June 30, 2025.

Each of the compensation arrangements is discussed below.

Restricted Stock  

The Company issues various types of restricted stock, of which the restricted stock awards are considered outstanding at the time of grant, as the award holders are entitled to dividends and voting rights. Unvested restricted stock awards are considered participating securities when computing earnings per share. Restricted stock unit award holders are not entitled to dividends or voting rights until settlement. Restricted stock grants are not transferable and are subject to forfeiture in the event of the recipient's termination of employment prior to vesting.

Restricted Stock Awards Issued to Employees - Service Condition
 
Restricted stock awards that vest based upon a service condition are expensed on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. These awards generally vest either in equal installments on each of the first anniversaries of the grant date or on the third-year anniversary of the grant date. The fair value of these awards is measured by the average of the high and low trading prices of the Company’s common stock on the most recent trading day immediately preceding the grant date (“measurement date”).

In February 2025, the Company granted restricted stock awards with a fair value per share of $.
 
Restricted Stock Units Issued to Employees - Service Condition
 
Restricted stock units that vest based upon a service condition are expensed on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. These awards generally vest in equal installments on each of the first anniversaries of the grant date. The fair value of these awards is measured by the average of the high and low trading prices of the Company’s common stock on the measurement date reduced by the present value of dividends expected to be paid during the requisite service period.

restricted stock units with a fair value per share of $.

Stock Appreciation Rights

SARs grant the holder the right to receive, once vested, the value in shares of the Company's common stock equal to the positive difference between the grant price, as determined using the mean of the high and low trading prices of the Company’s common stock on the measurement date, and the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of exercise. This amount is payable in shares of the Company’s common stock. SARs vest and become exercisable in equal installments during the first following the grant date and expire from the grant date.

In February 2025, the Company granted SAR awards. The fair value of each SAR award was measured using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

%%% years$
 
The expected dividend yield was calculated by dividing the Company’s expected annual dividend by the average stock price for the past three months. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatilities of the Company’s stock for a period consistent with the expected term. The expected term of SARs granted was based upon historical exercise behavior of SARs. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for the expected term of the award.

Performance Shares

Performance shares represent the right to receive a share of the Company’s common stock subject to the achievement of certain market or performance conditions established by the Company’s Compensation Committee and measured over a period. Partial vesting in these awards may occur after separation from the Company for retirement eligible employees. Shares are not vested until approved by the Company’s Compensation Committee.

Performance Shares - Market Condition

In February 2025, the Company granted performance shares that will vest subject to a market condition and service condition through the performance period. The market condition associated with the awards is the Company's total shareholder return (TSR) compared to the TSR generated by the companies that comprise the S&P Capital Goods 900 index over a performance period. Performance at target will result in vesting and issuance of the number of performance shares granted, equal to % payout. Performance below or above target can result in issuance in the range of %-% of the number of shares granted. Expense is recognized irrespective of the market condition being achieved.

The fair value of the performance share awards with a market condition for the 2025 grant was determined based upon a lattice model.

percent of these performance shares granted will vest based on Hubbell’s compounded annual growth rate of Net sales as compared to that of the companies that comprise the S&P Capital Goods 900 index. percent of these performance shares granted will vest based on achieved adjusted operating profit margin performance as compared to internal targets. Each of these performance conditions is measured over the same performance period. The cumulative result of these performance conditions can result in a number of shares earned in the range of %-% of the target number of shares granted.

The fair value of the award is measured based upon the average of the high and low trading prices of the Company's common stock on the measurement date reduced by the present value of dividends expected to be paid during the requisite service period. for the awards granted during February 2025.

ITEM 2Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Executive Overview of the Business
 
Hubbell is a global manufacturer of quality electrical products and utility solutions for a broad range of customer and end market applications. We provide utility and electrical solutions that enable our customers to operate critical infrastructure reliably and efficiently, and we empower and energize communities through innovative solutions supporting energy infrastructure In Front of the Meter, on The Edge, and Behind the Meter. In Front of the Meter is where utilities transmit and distribute energy to their customers. The Edge connects utilities with owner and operators and allows energy and data to be distributed back and forth. Behind the Meter is where owners and operators of buildings and other critical infrastructure consume energy. Products are either sourced complete, manufactured or assembled by subsidiaries in the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico, Mexico, China, the UK, Brazil, Australia, Spain, Ireland and the Republic of the Philippines. The Company also participates in joint ventures in Hong Kong and the Republic of the Philippines, and maintains offices in Singapore, Italy, China, India, Mexico, South Korea, Chile, and countries in the Middle East. The Company employed approximately 17,800 individuals worldwide as of June 30, 2025.

The Company’s reporting segments consist of the Utility Solutions segment and Electrical Solutions segment.

Results for the six months ended June 30, 2025 by segment are included under “Segment Results” within this Management’s Discussion and Analysis.

The Company's long-term strategy is to serve its customers with reliable and innovative electrical and related infrastructure solutions with desired brands and high-quality service, delivered through a competitive cost structure; to complement organic revenue growth with acquisitions that enhance its product offerings; and to allocate capital effectively to create shareholder value.
 
Our strategy to complement organic revenue growth with acquisitions is focused on acquiring assets that extend our capabilities, expand our product offerings, and present opportunities to compete in core, adjacent or complementary markets. Our acquisition strategy also provides the opportunity to advance our revenue growth objectives during periods of weakness or inconsistency in our end-markets.

Our strategy to deliver products through a competitive cost structure has resulted in past and ongoing restructuring and related activities. Our restructuring and related efforts include the consolidation of manufacturing and distribution facilities, and workforce actions, as well as streamlining and consolidating our back-office functions. The primary objectives of our restructuring and related activities are to optimize our manufacturing footprint, cost structure, and the effectiveness and efficiency of our workforce.

Productivity improvement also continues to be a key area of focus for the Company and efforts to drive productivity complement our restructuring and related activities to minimize the impact of rising material costs and other administrative cost inflation. Because material costs are approximately half of our cost of goods sold, continued volatility in this area could significantly impact profitability. Our goal is to have pricing and productivity programs that offset material and other inflationary cost increases as well as pay for investments in key growth areas.

Productivity programs affect virtually all functional areas within the Company by reducing or eliminating waste and improving processes. We continue to expand our efforts related to global product and component sourcing, as well as supplier cost reduction programs. Value engineering efforts, product transfers and the use of lean process improvement techniques are expected to continue to increase manufacturing efficiency. In addition, we continue to build upon the benefits of our enterprise resource planning system across all functions.

Our sales are also subject to market conditions that may cause customer demand for our products to be volatile. Product demand can be affected by fluctuations in domestic and international economic conditions, as well as currency fluctuations, commodity costs, and a variety of other factors. Since early 2021, we have experienced significant inflationary pressure across much of our business. As a result, we have taken various pricing actions to cover the higher costs and to protect our profitability. Although inflation has moderated since its high point in 2022, we expect inflation to remain a factor for the foreseeable future and we expect to continue to take these pricing actions subject to demand and market conditions. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain our margins in response to further changes in inflationary pressures. In addition, macroeconomic effects such as increases in interest rates and other measures taken by central banks and other policy makers could have a negative effect on overall economic activity which could reduce our customers’ demand for our products, and cause the continuation of relatively high market interest rates that increase our borrowing costs.



HUBBELL INCORPORATED-Form 10-Q    33

Back to Content
Additionally, international tensions, such as the conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine, as well as trade and other tensions, including those with China, Mexico and Canada may affect demand for our products, as well as our production costs. In particular, recent tariff and other trade actions by the U.S. and other countries and the widespread uncertainty and international tensions resulting therefrom, including, without limitation, the effect on the value of the U.S. dollar relative to other currencies, may adversely affect demand for our products, disrupt our supply chains, increase manufacturing costs and adversely affect our revenues, cost of sales and production volumes, any of which could materially and adversely harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. See also Item 1A Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, and in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further information.

In the first quarter of 2025, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding equity of Alliance USAcqCo 2, Inc. (“Ventev”), a leading manufacturer and provider of a complete ecosystem of solutions to power, protect, and connect wireless networks. The Ventev business has been added to the Electrical Solutions segment.

Results of Operations – Second Quarter of 2025 compared to the Second Quarter of 2024

The following is a discussion and analysis of our business, financial condition and results of operations as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the Condensed Financial Statements), and the audited consolidated financial statements, accompanying notes and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

In the second quarter of 2025, the Company elected to change its method of accounting for certain inventories in the U.S. from last in, first out ("LIFO") to first in, first out ("FIFO"). The change to FIFO is preferable because it conforms the Company's inventory to a single method of accounting and improves comparability with the Company's peers. The Company retrospectively applied this change in accounting principle to all prior periods.
 
Overview

Second quarter 2025 net sales were $1,484.3 million and increased by 2.2%, driven by an increase in organic sales volume of 2.0%, due to favorable price realization and an increase from acquisitions of 0.3% from the acquisition of Ventev in the first quarter of 2025.

Organic net sales in the Electrical Solutions segment grew by 3.5% in the second quarter of 2025 led by continued strength in the datacenter vertical. In the Utility Solutions segment, organic net sales increased 1.1% on higher volume from Grid Infrastructure products along with higher price realization, partially offset by lower volumes from Grid Automation due to the timing of large metering and AMI projects which drove a strong second quarter of 2024.

Operating margin in the second quarter of 2025 expanded by 160 basis points to 22.7%. Adjusted operating margin, which excludes amortization of acquisition-related intangibles and transaction, integration and separation costs, was 24.4% and increased by 120 basis points. That result includes margin expansion in the quarter primarily driven by benefits from operational productivity and favorable price realization, partially offset by margin contraction driven by continued material and other cost inflation, including tariff expense. See further discussion within Segment Results below.

In the following discussion of results of operations, we refer to “adjusted operating measures. We believe those adjusted measures, which exclude the impact of certain costs, gains and losses, may provide investors with useful information regarding our underlying performance from period to period and allow investors to understand our results of operations without regard to items that, in management's judgement, significantly affect the comparability of operating results, or are not considered to be components of our core operating performance.

HUBBELL INCORPORATED-Form 10-Q    35

Significant items impacting comparability comprise the following:

Transaction, integration and separation costs

The effect that acquisitions and divestitures may have on our results fluctuate significantly based on the timing, size and number of transactions, and therefore result in significant volatility in the costs to complete transactions and to integrate or separate the businesses.

Transaction costs are primarily professional services and other fees incurred to complete the transactions. Integration and separation costs are the internal and external incremental costs directly relating to these activities for the acquired or divested business.

The acquisition and divestiture actions taken by the Company in the fourth quarter of 2023 resulted in a significant increase in integration and separation costs. As a result, we believe excluding costs relating to these 2023 fourth quarter transactions provides useful and more comparable information for investors to better assess our operating performance.

Gains or losses on disposition of a business

Certain of the Company's adjusted measures exclude these gains or losses because we believe they enhance management's and investors' ability to analyze underlying business performance and facilitate comparisons of our financial results over multiple periods. In the first quarter of 2024 the Company recognized a $5.3 million pre-tax loss on the disposition of the residential lighting business and also recognized $6.8 million of income tax expense relating to that transaction, primarily driven by differences between book and tax basis in goodwill. In the second quarter of 2025 the Company recognized a $0.4 million pre-tax loss on the disposition of a product line in the Electrical Solutions segment. Those losses and the related income tax expense are excluded from our adjusted operating measures.

Amortization of intangible assets

Adjusted operating measures exclude amortization of all intangible assets associated with our business acquisitions, including inventory step-up amortization associated with those acquisitions. The intangible assets associated with our business acquisitions arise from the allocation of the purchase price using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 805, “Business Combinations.” These assets consist primarily of customer relationships, developed technology, trademarks and tradenames, and patents, as reported in Note 7 – Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, under the heading “Total Definite-Lived Intangibles,” within the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements set forth in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

The Company believes that the exclusion of these non-cash expenses (i) enhances management’s and investors’ ability to analyze underlying business performance, (ii) facilitates comparisons of our financial results over multiple periods, and (iii) provides more relevant comparisons of our results with the results of other companies as the amortization expense associated with these assets may fluctuate significantly from period to period based on the timing, size, nature, and number of acquisitions. Although we exclude amortization of these acquired intangible assets and inventory step-up from our non-GAAP results, we believe that it is important for investors to understand that revenue generated, in part, from such intangibles is included within revenue in determining adjusted net income attributable to Hubbell Incorporated.

Adjusted results also excluded the income tax effects of the above adjustments which are calculated using the statutory tax rate, taking into consideration the nature of the item and the relevant taxing jurisdiction, unless otherwise noted.

Organic net sales (or organic net sales growth), a non-GAAP measure, represents Net sales according to U.S. GAAP, less Net sales from acquisitions and divestitures during the first twelve months of ownership or divestiture, respectively, less the effect of fluctuations in Net sales from foreign currency exchange. The period-over-period effect of fluctuations in Net sales from foreign currency exchange is calculated as the difference between local currency Net sales of the prior period translated at the current period exchange rate as compared to the same local currency Net sales translated at the prior period exchange rate. We believe this measure provides management and investors with a more complete understanding of the underlying operating results and trends of established, ongoing operations by excluding the effect of acquisitions, dispositions and foreign currency as these activities can obscure underlying trends. When comparing Net sales growth between periods, excluding the effects of acquisitions, business dispositions and currency exchange rates, those effects are different when comparing results for different periods. For example, because Net sales from acquisitions are considered inorganic from the date we complete an acquisition through the end of the first year following the acquisition, Net sales from such acquisitions are reflected as organic net sales thereafter.

There are limitations to the use of non-GAAP measures. Non-GAAP measures do not present complete financial results. We compensate for this limitation by providing a reconciliation between our non-GAAP financial measures and the respective most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. These financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, as substitutes for, or alternative measures of, reported GAAP financial results, and should be viewed in conjunction with the most comparable GAAP financial measures and the provided reconciliations thereto. We believe, however, that these non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed together with our GAAP results and related reconciliations, provide a more complete understanding of our business. We strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not rely on any single financial measure.

Net Sales

Net sales of $1,484.3 million in the second quarter of 2025 increased by $31.8 million compared to the second quarter of 2024. Organic net sales increased by 2.0% driven by a low single digit percentage increase in price realization, while volumes were flat. Acquisitions contributed an 0.3% increase to net sales, while foreign exchange resulted in a 0.1% decrease in net sales. These changes are discussed in more detail in the Segment Results section below.

Cost of Goods Sold and Gross Profit

As a percentage of Net sales, cost of goods sold decreased by 180 basis points to 62.8% in the second quarter of 2025, resulting in gross profit margin expanding to 37.2%. Approximately four percentage points of gross profit margin expansion was driven by favorable price, improved operational productivity, lower acquisition-related intangible asset amortization, and improved business mix, partially offset by two percentage points of gross profit margin contraction due to material and other cost inflation, including tariff expense.

Selling & Administrative Expenses

S&A expense in the second quarter of 2025 was $215.8 million and increased by $8.3 million or 4.0% compared to the prior year period. This increase was primarily driven by higher acquisition-related intangible asset amortization and higher professional services in the current year compared to the prior year. S&A expense as a percentage of Net sales was 14.5% in the second quarter of 2025, compared to 14.3% in the second quarter of 2024.

Total Other Expense
 
Total other expense was flat compared to the second quarter of 2024. Total other expense decreased due to lower net interest expense of $5.3 million, which was offset by lower TSA revenue, higher non-service pension costs an unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024.

Income Taxes
 
The effective tax rate in the second quarter of 2025 decreased to 22.1% as compared to 23.2% in the second quarter of 2024, primarily due to a reduction of the state effective tax rate and a favorable foreign return to provision adjustment in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024.

Net Income Attributable to Hubbell Incorporated and Earnings Per Diluted Share
 
Net income attributable to Hubbell Incorporated was $244.2 million in the second quarter of 2025 and increased 12.3% as compared to the same period of the prior year, reflecting the factors described above. As a result, earnings per diluted share in the second quarter of 2025 increased 14% as compared to the second quarter of 2024. Adjusted net income attributable to Hubbell Incorporated, which excludes amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and transaction, integration and separation costs for both periods and the loss on disposition of a business for the second quarter of 2025, was $264.3 million in the second quarter of 2025 and increased by 9.9% as compared to the second quarter of 2024.

Net sales in the Utility Solutions segment in the second quarter of 2025 were $935.5 million, and increased by $9.0 million, or 0.9%, as compared to the second quarter of 2024. That increase was driven by a 1.1% increase in organic net sales, and a 0.2% decrease due to foreign currency exchange. The increase in organic net sales was driven by a low single digit increase in price realization, while volume was flat. Volume was driven by strength in substation and transmission markets, which was offset by Grid Automation products on the timing of large metering and AMI projects.

Operating income in the Utility Solutions segment for the second quarter of 2025 was $218.2 million, an increase of 10.6% compared to the second quarter of 2024. Operating margin increased by 200 basis points to 23.3% in the second quarter of 2025, and includes the effect of lower amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and transaction, integration and separation costs. Excluding amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and transaction, integration and separation costs, the adjusted operating margin increased by 140 basis points to 25.5%. That increase includes approximately three percentage points of margin expansion from favorable price realization, improved operational productivity and improved business mix. Those factors were partially offset by two percentage points of margin contraction due to material and other cost inflation, including tariff expense.

Net Sales

Net sales of $2,849.5 million in the first six months of 2025 decreased by $2.1 million compared to the first six months of 2024. Organic net sales increased by 0.7% driven by a low single digit increase in price realization, partially offset by a low single digit percentage decrease in volumes. Divestitures net of acquisitions resulted in a 0.4% reduction in net sales, while foreign currency exchange resulted in a 0.4% decrease in net sales. These changes are discussed in more detail in the Segment Results section below.

Cost of Goods Sold and Gross Profit

As a percentage of Net sales, cost of goods sold decreased by 170 basis points to 65.1% in the first six months of 2025, resulting in gross profit margin expanding to 34.9%. Approximately four percentage points of gross profit margin expansion was driven by improved operational productivity, favorable price and lower acquisition-related intangible asset amortization, partially offset by two percentage points of gross profit margin contraction due to material and other cost inflation, including tariff expense and lower volume.

Selling & Administrative Expenses

S&A expense in the first six months of 2025 was $428.0 million and increased by $1.3 million or 0.3% compared to the prior year period. This increase was primarily driven by higher intangible amortization expense, partially offset by lower transaction, integration and separation costs in the current year compared to the prior year. S&A expense as a percentage of Net sales was 15.0% in the first six months of 2025, compared to 14.9% in the first six months of 2024.

Total Other Expense
 
Total other expense decreased by $7.9 million in the first six months of 2025 to $40.2 million, primarily due to lower net interest expense of $12.6 million, due to lower outstanding debt balances, along with a $4.9 million net decrease on the loss recognized on business disposition, primarily due to the disposal of the residential lighting business in the first quarter of 2024. These decreases were partially offset by lower transaction service revenue, higher non-service pension costs and an unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange in the first six months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024.

Income Taxes
 
The effective tax rate in the first six months 2025 decreased to 22.1% as compared to 24.4% in the first six months of 2024, primarily due to income tax expense related to the sale of our residential lighting business in the first quarter of 2024, partially offset by a stock-based compensation benefit and lower state effective tax rate in the first six months of 2025.

Net Income Attributable to Hubbell Incorporated and Earnings Per Diluted Share
 
Net income attributable to Hubbell Incorporated was $407.4 million in the first six months of 2025 and increased 14.9% as compared to the same period of the prior year, reflecting the factors described above. As a result, earnings per diluted share in the first six months of 2025 increased by 15.7% as compared to the first six months of 2024. Adjusted net income attributable to Hubbell Incorporated, which excludes amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and transaction, integration and separation costs and the loss on disposition of a business, was $446.7 million in the first six months of 2025 and increased by 5.1% as compared to the first six months of 2024.

Net sales in the Utility Solutions segment in the first six months of 2025 were $1,792.6 million, and decreased by $27.9 million, or 1.5%, as compared to the first six months of 2024. That decrease was driven by a 1.2% decrease in organic net sales, and a 0.3% decrease due to foreign currency exchange. The decrease in organic net sales was driven by a low single digit percentage decrease in unit volume, partially offset by a low single digit increase in price realization. The decrease in unit volume resulted largely from volume declines in Grid Automation products on the timing of large metering and AMI projects which was partially offset by strength in substation and transmission markets.

Operating income in the Utility Solutions segment for the first six months of 2025 was $369.0 million, an increase of 7.0% compared to the first six months of 2024. Operating margin increased by 170 basis points to 20.6% in the first six months of 2025, and includes the effect of lower amortization of acqusition-related intangible assets and transaction, integration and separation costs. Excluding amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and transaction, integration and separation costs, the adjusted operating margin increased by 40 basis points to 22.8%. That increase includes approximately three percentage points of margin expansion from favorable price realization, and improved operational productivity. Those factors were partially offset by approximately two percentage points of margin contraction due to material and other cost inflation, including tariff expense.

Net sales in the Electrical Solutions segment in the first six months of 2025 were $1,056.9 million and increased by $25.8 million, or 2.5%, as compared to the first six months of 2024. That increase includes 4.1% growth in organic net sales, which was partially offset by a 1.1% decline in net sales resulting from divestitures net of acquisitions and a 0.5% decline due to foreign currency exchange. The increase in organic net sales was driven by a low single digit percentage increase in unit volumes and a low single digit percentage increase in price realization. Volume growth in the first six months of 2025 was driven primarily by strength in the datacenter market, while broader industrial markets were steady and commercial and residential markets were softer.

Operating income in the Electrical Solutions segment for the first six months of 2025 was $197.7 million and increased by 12.5% compared to the first six months of 2024, while operating margin in the first six months of 2025 expanded by 170 basis points to 18.7%. Excluding amortization of acquisition-related intangibles and transaction, integration and separation costs, the adjusted operating margin expanded by 140 basis points to 19.7%. The increase in operating margin was primarily due to approximately four percentage points of margin expansion from favorable price realization, operational productivity and higher volumes. Those factors were partially offset by approximately three percentage points of margin contraction driven by higher material and other cost inflation, including tariff expense.
