Veralto held approximately $1.8 billion in cash and cash equivalents as of October 2, 2026, including approximately $620 million in the United States and $1,165 million outside the United States. Operating cash flow increased $79 million, or 10%, in the first nine months of 2026 versus 2025, primarily on higher net earnings, partly offset by working-capital changes. The company issued $725 million of 2032 senior unsecured notes and repaid $700 million of notes due September 2026; it also issued $250 million of commercial paper to fund the Cleanwater1 acquisition.
