Ingersoll Rand's IT&S segment orders reached $1.55B in Q4 2025, up 9% year-over-year, while Precision and Science Technologies posted $402.2M in orders, up 6.5%. Acquisitions contributed 4% to Q4 revenues, but cost of sales rose 6.1% and S&A expenses jumped 7.1% in 2025.
1. Q4 2025 Order Performance
In Q4 2025, the Industrial Technologies & Services segment recorded orders of $1.55 billion, up 9% year-over-year, while the Precision and Science Technologies segment saw $402.2 million in orders, representing a 6.5% increase. This momentum is driven by demand across industrial vacuums, blowers, power tools, compressors, and fluid handling products for life sciences.
2. Strategic Acquisitions
Acquisitions accounted for 4% of total revenues in Q4 2025, with transactions including Transvac Systems Ltd. (November 2025) and Dave Barry Plastics (August 2025) integrated into the IT&S and Precision segments respectively. Earlier 2025 deals—Lead Fluid in China, G&D Chillers and AGT for air treatment, and SSI Aeration—expanded the company’s engineered solutions and life science capabilities.
3. Cost and Expense Trends
Cost of sales rose 6.1% year-over-year in 2025 due to higher raw material and component prices, while selling and administrative expenses increased by 7.1%, reaching 18.8% of revenues. The company anticipates approximately $170 million in corporate costs for 2026 to support growth initiatives in demand generation and digital investments.
4. Shareholder Returns and Risks
Ingersoll Rand returned $31.8 million in dividends and repurchased $1.02 billion of shares in 2025, backed by two $1 billion boosts to its share repurchase authorization in April 2024 and May 2025. Significant international exposure presents potential risks from political, economic disruptions and unfavorable currency moves that could affect profitability.
