DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Intelligent power management company Eaton Corporation plc (NYSE:ETN) today announced that earnings per share were $1.52 for the third quarter of 2022. Excluding charges of $0.25 per share related to intangible amortization, $0.21 per share related to acquisitions and divestitures, and $0.04 per share related to a multi-year restructuring program, adjusted earnings per share of $2.02 were a quarterly record and up 15% over the third quarter of 2021.
Sales in the third quarter of 2022 were $5.3 billion, up 8% from the third quarter of 2021. Organic sales were up 15% and acquisitions added 1%, which was partially offset by 4% from the divestiture of the Hydraulics business and 4% from negative currency translation.
Third quarter segment margins were 21.2%, a quarterly record and above the high end of guidance. This represents a 130-basis point improvement over the third quarter of 2021. Operating cash flow in the third quarter of 2022 was $965 million, up 29% over adjusted operating cash flow for the third quarter of 2021, and free cash flow was $830 million, up 36% over adjusted free cash flow in the third quarter of 2021.
Craig Arnold, Eaton chairman and chief executive officer, said, “I’m proud of how we continue to deliver record results across our businesses, driven by strong demand and accelerating organic growth. I want to thank our teams for their efforts in successfully navigating both the challenges and the tailwinds of the current environment. I’m confident in our ability to continue executing our strategy and delivering for our stakeholders.”
The company reaffirms its full year adjusted earnings per share guidance midpoint of $7.56. For the fourth quarter of 2022, the company anticipates organic growth of 13-15% and adjusted earnings per share of between $2.00 and $2.10.

EATON CORPORATION plc
NOTES TO THE THIRD QUARTER 2022 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, adjusted operating cash flow, free cash flow, and adjusted 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.
