Garrison, Jr. "I want to thank our team members for their continued commitment to our Zero Harm safety culture and for improving deliveries to our customers and dealers.

As a result of the team's exceptional execution and the strength of our customer backlog, we are raising our full-year EPS outlook to ~$7.00."

"Terex continues to be exceptionally well-positioned to provide solutions to meet the increasing requirements of our customers and dealers.

Our MP team is focused on developing innovative solutions for growing aggregate, material handling, and environmental and waste recycling markets. Our Utilities team is helping customers meet rising challenges related to ongoing infrastructure modernization, which remains critical to driving electrification and reducing carbon emissions. The Genie team has been executing extremely well, introducing innovative new products, taking significant cost reduction actions to streamline operations to increase profitability while ensuring the product transfers to our new permanent Monterrey facility remain on track. Looking ahead, we are increasing our full-year revenue and operating margin guidance ranges for both MP and AWP as a result of their strong performance."

Second Quarter Operational and Financial Highlights

• Net sales of $1.4 billion increased 30.3%, up from $1.1 billion in the second quarter of 2022. The increase was primarily driven by healthy demand for our products across multiple businesses and all major geographies, and improved price realization necessary to mitigate rising costs, which was partially offset by a $10 million negative impact from changes in foreign exchange rates.
• Income from operations of $209.9 million, or 15.0% of net sales improved from $103.9 million, or 9.6% of net sales during the prior year. The year-over-year increase of $106.0 million was primarily due to incremental margin achieved on higher sales volume, price realization, favorable mix and improved manufacturing efficiencies, which was partially offset by cost increases.
• Income from continuing operations was $159.8 million, or $2.35 per share, compared to $74.1 million, or $1.07 per share, in the second quarter of 2022. EPS increased 119.6%, more than doubling on a year-over-year basis.

• Income from operations increased to $98.2 million or 17.0% of net sales, compared to $79.5 million, or 16.5% of net sales, in the prior year.
