Shelton, CT, June 07, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
- Highlights long-term strategy for value creation
- Anticipates double-digit adjusted EPS growth through 2025
- Tracking to upper half of previously communicated outlook range for 2022 results
Hubbell Incorporated (NYSE: HUBB) is hosting its 2022 Investor Day today beginning at 8:30 a.m. ET. During the event, Hubbell leadership will provide details on the Company’s long-term strategy for growth and margin expansion, as well as cash flow generation and deployment. The Company will also provide an update on near-term trends, including an expectation to deliver 2022 adjusted EPS and diluted earnings per share within the upper half of its previously communicated outlook ranges of $9.00 to $9.40 per share and $8.00 to $8.40, respectively. Adjusted EPS, a non-GAAP measure, excludes amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, which the Company expects to be approximately $1.00 per share for the full year. The Company believes Adjusted EPS is a useful measure of underlying performance in light of its acquisition strategy and core operations.
“Hubbell’s leading positions in front of and behind the meter strategically align our Utility Solutions and Electrical Solutions segments around attractive long-term trends in grid modernization and electrification,” said Gerben Bakker, Hubbell’s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We believe that we are well positioned to generate long-term value for our customers through reliable and efficient critical infrastructure solutions, as well as for our shareholders through consistent growth, margin expansion, cash generation and capital deployment. Our leadership team looks forward to building on Hubbell’s 130+ year performance legacy to evolve for the future while sustaining our foundational strengths.”
