This earnings release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. These financial measures include adjusted earnings, adjusted earnings per ordinary share, and free cash flow, each of which differs from the most directly comparable measure calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). A reconciliation of each of these financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is included in this earnings release. Management believes that these financial measures are useful to investors because they provide additional meaningful financial information that should be considered when assessing our business performance and trends, and they allow investors to more easily compare Eaton Corporation plc's (Eaton or the Company) financial performance period to period. Management uses this information in monitoring and evaluating the on-going performance of Eaton and each business segment.

The Company's fourth quarter and full year net income per ordinary share and adjusted earnings per ordinary share guidance for 2026 is as follows:

Three months ended Year ended December 31, December 31, 2026 2026 ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Net income per share attributab… to $3.28 - $10.39 - Eaton $3.38 $10.49 ordinary shareholde… - diluted Excluding per share impact of acquisition 0.25 1.26 and divestiture charges, after tax Excluding per share impact of restructur… 0.07 0.19 program charges, after tax Excluding per share impact of intangible 0.45 1.86 asset amortizati… expense, after tax Adjusted earnings $4.05 - $13.70 - per $4.15 $13.80 ordinary share

A reconciliation of net income attributable to Eaton ordinary shareholders per share to adjusted earnings per ordinary share is as follows:

On January 26, 2026, Eaton announced its intention to separate its Mobility business segment from the rest of Eaton via a spin-off. On June 10, 2026, Eaton entered into definitive agreements with Dana Incorporated (Dana), and on October 16, 2026, entered into a supplemental letter agreement, whereby Eaton will separate the Mobility business and combine it with Dana in a Reverse Morris Trust (RMT) transaction (collectively referred to as the Transaction). As part of the Transaction, Eaton will distribute the Mobility business (other than certain assets and liabilities that will be sold directly to Dana in a concurrent asset sale) to Eaton shareholders through an exchange offer (split- off), in which Eaton shareholders will have the opportunity to tender their Eaton shares in exchange for shares of Mobility (USA) Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Eaton (SpinCo), followed, if necessary, by a clean-up pro rata distribution. Immediately thereafter, a two-step merger will take place. In the first merger step, a direct, wholly owned corporation subsidiary of SpinCo will merge with and into Dana, with Dana surviving such first merger as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of SpinCo. Then immediately following the first merger, Dana will merge with and into a direct, wholly owned limited liability company subsidiary of SpinCo (the Second Merger Sub), with the Second Merger Sub surviving as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of SpinCo. Following completion of the Transaction, Eaton shareholders are expected to own 50.1% of the combined company's outstanding shares. Certain of Eaton's subsidiaries will also receive a cash distribution of approximately $1.1 billion prior to completion of the Transaction, subject to a customary cash and indebtedness adjustment and tax payments to various global jurisdictions and transaction related adjustments. Eaton expects to use the cash distribution consistent with its capital allocation framework, including repayment of outstanding indebtedness.

The RMT transaction is intended to be tax-free for U.S. federal income tax purposes to Eaton and Eaton’s shareholders and is expected to close in the first four months of 2027, subject to Dana stockholder approval, regulatory approvals, and customary closing conditions. Until the Transaction closes, the Mobility business segment will continue to operate as a business segment of Eaton and its financial results reported in Eaton’s continuing operations. In the event the Transaction is not consummated, Eaton intends to separate its Mobility business segment in a spin-off.

Eaton incurs integration charges and transaction costs to acquire and integrate businesses, and transaction, separation and other costs to divest and exit businesses. Eaton also recognizes gains and losses on the sale of businesses. A summary of these Corporate items is as follows:

Acquisition integration, divestiture charges and transaction costs in 2026 and 2025 are primarily related to the following:

• The acquisitions of Fibrebond Corporation, Resilient Power Systems Inc., Ultra PCS Limited, Boyd Thermal, and Exertherm, the anticipated separation of the Mobility business, transactions completed prior to 2023, and other charges to acquire and exit businesses.

• Employee transaction and retention award compensation expense related to the acquisition of Fibrebond of $12 million and $52 million in the third quarter and the first nine months of 2026, respectively, and $16 million and $64 million in the third quarter and the first nine months of 2025, respectively.

• Employee incentive compensation expense related to the acquisition of Resilient of $4 million and $20 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2026, respectively, and $4 million in the third quarter of 2025.

Additionally, during the second quarter of 2026, Eaton incurred $52 million of withholding taxes related to funding the acquisition of Boyd Thermal, which are included in Income tax expense (benefit) in the table above for the nine months ended September 30, 2026.

During the first quarter of 2024, Eaton implemented a multi-year restructuring program to accelerate opportunities to optimize its operations and global support structure. These actions will better align the Company's functions to support anticipated growth and drive greater effectiveness throughout the Company. Since the inception of the program, the Company has incurred charges of $394 million. This restructuring program is expected to be completed in 2026 and is expected to incur additional expenses related to workforce reductions of $20 million and plant closing and other costs of $16 million, resulting in total estimated charges of $430 million for the entire program. The Company expects mature year benefits of $415 million when the multi-year program is fully implemented.

1 The restructuring program liability was adjusted by $3 million and $9 million in the third quarter of 2026 primarily related to true-ups for completed workforce reductions in the Electrical Americas and Electrical Global business segments, respectively.

These restructuring program charges (income) were included in Cost of products sold, Selling and administrative expense, Research and development expense, or Other expense - net, as appropriate. In Business Segment Information, these restructuring program charges are treated as Corporate items.

November 3, 2026 — Intelligent power management company Eaton Corporation plc
(NYSE:ETN) today reported strong third quarter 2026 results, including earnings
per share of $2.77. Adjusted earnings per share were a record of $3.68,
excluding charges of $0.62 per share related to intangible amortization, $0.30
per share related to acquisitions and divestitures, and income of $0.01 per
share related to a multi-year restructuring program.

Sales in the quarter were a record $8.9 billion, up 28% from the third quarter
of 2025. The sales increase consisted of 19% growth in organic sales, 8% growth
from acquisitions, and 1% growth from foreign exchange.

Segment margins were a record 25.3%, 30 basis points above both the high end of
the guidance range and the third quarter of 2025, driven by higher sales and
improved performance amid continued capacity investments to support growth.

The Company continued to generate solid cash flow, supporting investment in
growth initiatives while maintaining financial flexibility. Operating cash flow
was $1.31 billion, and free cash flow was $1.03 billion.

Paulo Ruiz, Eaton chief executive officer, said, “Our strong third quarter
performance reflects the focus and discipline our teams have demonstrated all
year as we expand capacity, strengthen execution and position the business to
meet accelerating customer demand. We delivered organic growth and segment
margins above the high end of our guidance, driven by strong demand across our
markets and continued momentum across our Electrical businesses. Record orders
grew sequentially, backlog continued to expand, and we remain well-positioned to
help customers deliver on their critical power infrastructure investments. These
results reinforce our confidence in the remainder of the year.”

In the quarter, the company also announced an agreement to acquire COL Group, a
leader in medium-voltage electrical distribution solutions, expanding the
company’s European power distribution capabilities and manufacturing footprint
and enhancing its ability to support growing customer demand across data center
and utility markets.

  NOTES TO THE THIRD QUARTER 2026 EARNINGS RELEASE                              
                                                                                
Amounts are in millions of dollars unless indicated otherwise (per share data
assume dilution). Columns and rows may not add and the sum of components may not
equal total amounts reported due to rounding.
                                                                                
   Note 1. NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION                                       
                                                                                
This earnings release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. These
financial measures include adjusted earnings, adjusted earnings per ordinary
share, and free cash flow, each of which differs from the most directly
comparable measure calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP). A reconciliation of each of these financial measures to the
most directly comparable GAAP measure is included in this earnings release.
Management believes that these financial measures are useful to investors
because they provide additional meaningful financial information that should be
considered when assessing our business performance and trends, and they allow
investors to more easily compare Eaton Corporation plc's (Eaton or the Company)
financial performance period to period. Management uses this information in
monitoring and evaluating the on-going performance of Eaton and each business
segment.

The Company's fourth quarter and full year net income per ordinary share and
adjusted earnings per ordinary share guidance for 2026 is as follows:

Planned Separation of Mobility Business

On January 26, 2026, Eaton announced its intention to separate its Mobility
business segment from the rest of Eaton via a spin-off. On June 10, 2026, Eaton
entered into definitive agreements with Dana Incorporated (Dana), and on October
16, 2026, entered into a supplemental letter agreement, whereby Eaton will
separate the Mobility business and combine it with Dana in a Reverse Morris
Trust (RMT) transaction (collectively referred to as the Transaction). As part
of the Transaction, Eaton will distribute the Mobility business (other than
certain assets and liabilities that will be sold directly to Dana in a
concurrent asset sale) to Eaton shareholders through an exchange offer (split-
off), in which Eaton shareholders will have the opportunity to tender their
Eaton shares in exchange for shares of Mobility (USA) Corporation, a wholly
owned subsidiary of Eaton (SpinCo), followed, if necessary, by a clean-up pro
rata distribution. Immediately thereafter, a two-step merger will take place. In
the first merger step, a direct, wholly owned corporation subsidiary of SpinCo
will merge with and into Dana, with Dana surviving such first merger as a
direct, wholly owned subsidiary of SpinCo. Then immediately following the first
merger, Dana will merge with and into a direct, wholly owned limited liability
company subsidiary of SpinCo (the Second Merger Sub), with the Second Merger Sub
surviving as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of SpinCo. Following completion
of the Transaction, Eaton shareholders are expected to own 50.1% of the combined
company's outstanding shares. Certain of Eaton's subsidiaries will also receive
a cash distribution of approximately $1.1 billion prior to completion of the
Transaction, subject to a customary cash and indebtedness adjustment and tax
payments to various global jurisdictions and transaction related adjustments.
Eaton expects to use the cash distribution consistent with its capital
allocation framework, including repayment of outstanding indebtedness.

The RMT transaction is intended to be tax-free for U.S. federal income tax
purposes to Eaton and Eaton’s shareholders and is expected to close in the first
four months of 2027, subject to Dana stockholder approval, regulatory approvals,
and customary closing conditions. Until the Transaction closes, the Mobility
business segment will continue to operate as a business segment of Eaton and its
financial results reported in Eaton’s continuing operations. In the event the
Transaction is not consummated, Eaton intends to separate its Mobility business
segment in a spin-off.

  Note 5. RESTRUCTURING CHARGES                                                 
                                                                                
During the first quarter of 2024, Eaton implemented a multi-year restructuring
program to accelerate opportunities to optimize its operations and global
support structure. These actions will better align the Company's functions to
support anticipated growth and drive greater effectiveness throughout the
Company. Since the inception of the program, the Company has incurred charges of
$394 million. This restructuring program is expected to be completed in 2026 and
is expected to incur additional expenses related to workforce reductions of $20
million and plant closing and other costs of $16 million, resulting in total
estimated charges of $430 million for the entire program. The Company expects
mature year benefits of $415 million when the multi-year program is fully
implemented.

A summary of restructuring program charges (income) is as follows:
