- Industrial Automation sales growth was modest at 1% organically, with segment margins declining due to inflationary pressures and unfavorable mix dynamics.
- Energy and Sustainability Solutions experienced a 2% organic sales decline, impacted by licensing and catalyst delivery delays, with segment margins flat year-over-year.
