2026 Proxy Statement 1

Message from Our Independen t

Board Chair and Chief Executive

Officer

Dear Fellow Stockholders,

On behalf of the Ralliant Board of Directors and management team, we are pleased to invite you to our inaugural Annual

Meeting of Stockholders to be held virtually on Friday, June 5, 2026.

Less than a year ago, Ralliant became an independent, publicly traded company following our separation from Fortive. In this

new chapter for Ralliant, we have a strong foundation as a premier global precision technologies company with over $2 billion

in revenue and 90,000 customers worldwide in 2025. Thanks to our dedicated team, we are confident in our path forward to

deliver growth and long-term value creation for our stockholders.

Operating as a Standalone Company: Focused Execution and Measurable Progress

Ralliant operates through two segments: Sensors & Safety Systems and Test & Measurement—empowering engineers with the

precision technologies essential for breakthrough innovation in an electrified and digital world. Our Sensors & Safety Systems

segment provides high-precision sensing, monitoring, and safety solutions for mission-critical applications across defense and

space, utilities, industrial manufacturing, and other critical environments where uptime, accuracy, and reliability are essential.

Our Test & Measurement segment delivers precision instruments, analysis software, and life cycle services used by engineers

across diversified electronics, communications, and semiconductors. Our Test & Measurement solutions support customers at

the leading edge of technology, including AI data centers and defense applications. All of the businesses in our segments are

powered by the Ralliant Business System, our operating framework that translates strategy into execution through a disciplined

operating cadence, standardized performance metrics, and continuous improvement tools.

As a standalone public company, we are focused on executing against three strategic pillars: capturing secular momentum in

our winning growth vectors, enhancing customer lifetime value in our stronghold positions, and embedding the Ralliant

Business System across the enterprise.

Key milestones from this year include:

• Generated strong operating and free cash flow, with free cash flow conversion exceeding our long‑term target;

• Established a clear capital allocation framework that prioritizes both investment in the business and return of capital to

stockholders through dividends and stock repurchases;

• Gained clarity on post-spin cost structure and launched a targeted cost savings program;

• Strengthened customer partnerships across our core end markets; and

• Pursued secular growth opportunities in utilities, defense and space, and power electronics.

Board Oversight, Accountability, and Investor Engagement

The Board has worked closely with management to oversee the establishment of Ralliant’s operating and governance

framework, review and refine financial targets, and evaluate capital deployment opportunities.

Ralliant’s nine-member Board, led by an independent Chair, is composed of global leaders and innovators who provide robust

oversight of the Company’s strategy and risk management. Directors were deliberately selected for their expertise in our key

industries as well as experience driving technological transformations, overseeing financial reporting, deploying artificial

intelligence (“AI”), and advancing growth initiatives.

  • Free cash flow and free cash flow conversion are non-GAAP financial measures. See “Appendix - Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for

additional information.

2

We recognize the importance of meaningful stockholder engagement to discuss our business and garner feedback on how we

can best support sustainable value creation. This year, we initiated Ralliant’s inaugural governance-focused engagement

program and met with stockholders representing approximately 42% of our outstanding shares. These discussions covered

topics including our governance structure, executive compensation, and strategic priorities, and these perspectives are shared

with the Nominating and Governance Committee and the Board for consideration. In addition, since May 2025, management

has met with stockholders representing over 70% of shares outstanding and presented at seven conferences to help investors

gain better insight into our growth strategy and financial performance. We value engaging with our stockholders and are

committed to continuing this dialogue.

Looking Ahead

Ralliant is well positioned with a clear strategy, a disciplined operating model, and an engaged Board and management team

aligned around execution and accountability. We remain focused on driving profitable growth, expanding margins, and

deploying capital in a manner that balances reinvestment with returns to stockholders. We are more energized and excited than

ever to deliver—for our customers, our employees, and our stockholders.

We encourage you to review this Proxy Statement and ask for your support on the voting items presented at our

Annual Meeting.

2026 Proxy Statement 9

PROPOSAL 1

Election of Class I Directors for a

Three-Year Term

Proposal Summary

Based on the recommendation of the Nominating and Governance Committee, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) has

nominated the following three Class I directors to hold office until the 2029 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until their

successors are duly elected and qualified:

Luis Müller Anelise Sacks Neil Schrimsher

All Class I director nominees are currently serving as directors. Each Class I director nominee has consented to be named in

this Proxy Statement and to serve as a director if elected. We have no reason to believe that any director nominee will be

unable to serve as a director. However, if any director nominee is unavailable for election, proxies may be voted for another

person nominated as a substitute by the Board, or the Board may reduce the number of directors on the Board. Unless

otherwise instructed, the persons named as proxies will vote all proxies received for the election of each of the director

nominees. Proxies cannot be voted for a greater number of individuals than the three nominees named in this Proposal 1.

The Board recommends a vote FOR the election of each of the foregoing Class I director nominees.

10

PROPOSAL 1: ELECTION OF CLASS I DIRECTORS FOR A THREE-YEAR TERM

Classified Board and Phase-Out

The Board consists of nine directors. Each of the current directors serving on the Board joined the Board in June 2025, in

connection with Ralliant’s separation (the “Separation”) from Fortive Corporation (“Fortive”) and listing on the New York Stock

Exchange (the “NYSE”). As is common for newly spun-off companies, Ralliant currently has a classified board, comprising

three classes:

Class I: Luis Müller, Anelise Sacks, and Neil Schrimsher, whose terms expire at the Annual Meeting;

Class II: Kevin Bryant, Kate Mitchell, and Brian Worrell, whose terms expire at the 2027 Annual Meeting; and

Class III: Ganesh Moorthy, Tami Newcombe, and Alan Spoon, whose terms expire at the 2028 Annual Meeting.

Under Ralliant’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, Ralliant will conduct a phased declassification of the Board

to be completed in 2029 as depicted below, with 2026 being the only year that a class of directors will be elected for a three-

year term. Starting with the 2029 Annual Meeting, directors will be elected annually and for a term of office to expire at the next

annual meeting of stockholders, and our Board will thereafter no longer be divided into classes.

2026 — Three-year term
Class I directors being reelected in 2026 and serving until 2029
Two-year term
Class II directors reelected in 2027 and serving until 2029
One-year term
Class III directors reelected in 2028 and serving until 2029

In addition, other provisions contained in Ralliant’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and

Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws,” and together, the “Organizational Documents”) that were adopted in connection with the

Separation will be phased out, or “sunset,” in 2029. Starting with the 2029 Annual Meeting, (1) stockholders owning ≥25% of

Ralliant’s outstanding common stock may call special meetings; (2) directors may be removed with or without cause; and (3) a

simple majority of stockholders may amend the Organizational Documents (in each case, subject to compliance with the other

requirements contained in the Organizational Documents).

2026 Proxy Statement 11

Board Composition

Nomination Process

The Nominating and Governance Committee is responsible for identifying and recommending to the Board qualified candidates

for Board membership. In evaluating director candidates, the Nominating and Governance Committee considers a wide range

of factors, including the candidate’s skills, background, expertise, and commitments, the current composition of the Board, and

any perceived need for one or more particular areas of expertise. Additionally, the Committee regularly, and at least annually,

evaluates the composition of the Board to determine the current and future skills and experiences needed to effectively oversee

Ralliant and its strategic direction. The Board believes that its directors, taken as a whole, should embody a mix of skills,

knowledge, expertise, and experiences appropriate in light of the Board’s needs.

The Nominating and Governance Committee may consider director candidates from several sources including those

recommended by directors, a third-party search firm, or stockholders. In connection with the use of a third-party search firm to

identify potential director candidates, the Nominating and Governance Committee will instruct the search firm to include in its

initial list of candidates qualified candidates who reflect the Board’s desired range of skills, knowledge, expertise, and

experiences. Candidates proposed by stockholders are evaluated using the same criteria as for other candidates. A stockholder

who wishes to recommend a director candidate for consideration by the Nominating and Governance Committee should send

such recommendation in writing using the procedures described under the “Communicating with the Board” section of this

Proxy Statement.

Assessing Nominees and Board Composition

The Board and the Nominating and Governance Committee believe it is important that directors demonstrate the standards and

qualifications set out in the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines, including:

• Personal and professional integrity and character;

• Prominence and reputation in the candidate’s profession;

• Diversity of skills, knowledge, expertise, and experiences useful and appropriate to the effective oversight of

Ralliant’s business;

• The extent to which the interplay of the candidate’s skills, knowledge, expertise, and experiences with that of the other

directors will help build a Board that is effective in collectively meeting Ralliant’s strategic needs and serving the long-term

interests of the stockholders;

• The capacity and desire to represent the interests of the stockholders as a whole; and

• Ability to devote sufficient time to the affairs of Ralliant.

12

BOARD COMPOSITION

Director Independence

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that the Board shall consist of a majority of directors who qualify as independent

under the listing standards of the NYSE. The Board assesses the independence of each director annually. In determining the

independence of its directors, the Board considered relevant transactions, relationships, and arrangements between each

director and the Company. The Board affirmatively determined that all of our directors other than our CEO, Ms. Newcombe, are

independent under the NYSE listing standards. The Board has also determined that all members of the Audit Committee, the

Compensation Committee, and the Nominating and Governance Committee are independent and satisfy applicable

committee-specific independence requirements.

Limits on Outside Board Commitments

The Board understands the significant time commitment involved with serving on the Board and its committees. The Nominating

and Governance Committee and the Board only nominate candidates who they believe are capable of devoting the necessary

time to successfully meet their duties, taking into account principal occupations, memberships on other boards, and

other responsibilities.

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines state that directors should not serve on more than three boards of public companies in

addition to the Board, provided that a director who serves as an executive officer of a public company should not serve on more

than one public company board in addition to the Board. In accordance with the NYSE’s disclosure requirement, no member of

the Audit Committee may serve on more than two other public company audit committees without first obtaining the prior

approval of the Board.

Directors should advise the Chair of the Board, the Chair of the Nominating and Governance Committee, and the Corporate

Secretary before accepting membership on, or an invitation to be nominated as a candidate for election to, another board of

directors or audit committee or any other significant committee assignment. In addition, directors are expected to offer to resign

from the Board if they experience a substantial change to their principal occupation, subject to further consideration by the

Nominating and Governance Committee.

The Nominating and Governance Committee annually reviews outside director time commitments, including any leadership

positions on another public company’s board of directors, to evaluate and confirm that all directors have demonstrated that they

have committed and expect to commit appropriate time to serve effectively on the Board and its committees. Based on their

current board commitments, all directors are expected to be in compliance with our Corporate Governance Guidelines

regarding other board memberships as of the Annual Meeting.

Corporate Governance

Board Leadership Structure

Ralliant’s Board currently has an Independent Board Chair. This structure allows Mr. Moorthy, as Board Chair, to lead agenda

setting and oversight of the Company’s strategy at the Board level, while Ralliant’s CEO, Ms. Newcombe, leads the

development and execution of the strategy. The Board does not have a set policy on whether the positions of Chair and CEO

should always be separated as the Board believes the structure should be based upon the needs of the Board and Ralliant at

any given time. Maintaining this flexibility allows the Board to choose the leadership structure that will best serve the interests of

Ralliant and its stockholders.

As the Independent Chair of the Board, Mr. Moorthy leads the activities of the Board, including:

• Calling, and presiding over, all Board meetings;

• Together with the CEO and the Corporate Secretary, setting and approving the agenda for Board meetings;

• Calling, and presiding over, the executive sessions of the independent directors;

• Advising the CEO on strategic aspects of Ralliant’s business, including developments and decisions that are to be discussed

with, or would be of interest to, the Board; and

• Acting as a liaison, as necessary, between the independent directors and the management of the Company.

In the event that the Chair of the Board is not an independent director, the Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that the

independent directors, upon recommendation from the Nominating and Governance Committee, will select by majority vote an

independent director to serve as the Lead Independent Director with the authority to:

• Preside at all meetings of the Board at which the Chair is not present, including executive sessions;

• Call meetings of the independent directors;

• Act as a liaison, as necessary, between the independent directors and the CEO; and

• Advise with respect to the Board’s agenda.

Meeting Attendance and Executive Sessions

Directors are expected to attend all meetings of the Board, meetings of the committees on which they serve, and the Annual

Meeting of Stockholders. The Board held two meetings in 2025 (from the date of the Separation in June 2025 through the end

of the fiscal year). Each director attended at least 75% of the total number of 2025 meetings of the Board and of each

Committee on which he or she served.

The independent directors meet in executive session at each of the regularly scheduled Board meetings and as necessary at

other Board meetings. The Board’s Independent Chair presides over these executive sessions.

Annual Board and Committee Self-Evaluations

The Board recognizes that a robust and constructive evaluation process is a key component of Board effectiveness. The

Nominating and Governance Committee is responsible for overseeing the annual self-evaluation process of the Board and its

committees. Given that the Board only began serving in the third quarter of 2025, the Nominating and Governance Committee

recommended a process that enabled reflection on the Board’s initial year of service, which included a questionnaire completed

by each director focused on Board and committee composition and dynamics, culture, and the functioning and performance of

the Board thus far. The Chair of the Nominating and Governance Committee reviewed the results of the evaluation in executive

session with the full Board.

Going forward, the Nominating and Governance Committee has recommended a robust annual process designed to facilitate a

candid assessment and elicit actionable feedback and areas for improvement, as outlined below, and will determine the most

appropriate evaluation process each year depending on the needs and circumstances of the Board and its committees.

Planning and Process Design Written Questionnaire Representative Topics Expected to be Covered Discussion and Feedback
• Nominating and Governance Committee reviews the format and process of the annual evaluations, including topics to be addressed • Each director completes detailed questionnaires • Questionnaires provide space for and encourage candid commentary • Board composition and leadership structure • Frequency and format of meetings • Board culture • Board performance and effectiveness • Board responsibilities • Director access to management • Relevant business topics of interest • Committee structure and responsibilities • Anonymized results provided to the Independent Board Chair and respective committee chairs with all comments provided verbatim • Review and discussion in executive sessions of Board and committee meetings • Individual discussions between Independent Board Chair and each director

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Director Orientation and Education

Our Nominating and Governance Committee oversees and reviews the orientation program for new directors and the

continuing director education program.

Director Orientation

Before the Separation, members of Ralliant’s senior management team held two in-person immersion sessions for the incoming

directors. The sessions were designed to educate and familiarize the directors with Ralliant’s business, strategies, and policies

and assist the directors in developing Ralliant and industry knowledge in order to optimize their service on the Board following

the Separation in June 2025.

The Board prioritizes robust director orientation and onboarding programs to help new directors become integrated into

boardroom discussions and maximize their contributions. Ralliant has designed a comprehensive onboarding program for new

directors covering key functional areas of our business, introducing the importance of the Ralliant Business System (“RBS”),

and familiarizing them with the Board and its committees. After joining the Board, each new director is expected to receive

personal briefings by senior management on our business, strategic plans, financial statements, and key policies and practices.

Director Education

Ralliant provides continuing education to directors through internal and external opportunities, including through educational

sessions at Board meetings, site visits, briefings on topics identified or requested by management or the Board, and additional

opportunities to interact with members of management and other employees. In 2025, the Board hosted a meeting at an

operating company campus so directors could witness firsthand RBS in action and hear from emerging operating company

leaders on new product introductions. Additionally, management invited an outside expert to present on the Board ‘s role in AI

oversight at a Board meeting in 2025. The Board also encourages directors to participate in

third-party programming.

Key Areas of Board Oversight

Strategy

The Board has oversight responsibility for management’s establishment and execution of corporate strategy. The Board

formally reviews Ralliant’s corporate strategy annually and elements of our strategy are regularly discussed as a matter of

course at Board meetings. The Board also engages directly with senior management and leaders of Ralliant’s operating

companies, in and outside of Board meetings, to review strategic and operational priorities, the competitive environment,

market challenges, economic trends, and regulatory developments. In Ralliant’s first year as a standalone company, the Board

has been actively engaged in overseeing and guiding the development of our multi-year strategic plan at both the enterprise

and operating company levels. The Board also regularly reviews and provides insights on Ralliant’s capital allocation priorities

and strategy.

2026 Proxy Statement 29

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Risk

The Board oversees risk at Ralliant, with a focus on the most significant risks facing Ralliant, including those that relate to

strategic, operational, financial, legal and compliance, and reputational matters. The Board has also delegated specific risk

responsibility to its three committees, the members of which are all independent directors. Management is responsible for

managing risk. A summary of the allocation of risk oversight functions among the Board, its committees, and management is

as follows:

Full Board
Oversees risks associated with Ralliant’s strategic plan, capital allocation priorities, capital structure, liquidity, organizational structure, and other significant risks.
Audit Committee Compensation Committee Nominating and Governance Committee
Oversees Ralliant’s risk assessment and risk management policies and specific risks related to financial controls, legal and compliance risks, and major financial, privacy, cybersecurity, and business continuity matters. Oversees risks associated with compensation policies and practices and human capital management. Oversees risks related to corporate governance, Board and committee structure, CEO succession planning, and corporate responsibility matters.
Management
Responsible for the identification, assessment, and management of risks. In support of these responsibilities, Ralliant maintains a Risk Committee, co-chaired by the Senior Vice President – Chief Legal and Government Affairs Officer and Senior Vice President – Chief Financial Officer, and comprising senior leaders with broad enterprise experience. The Risk Committee inventories, assesses, and prioritizes the most significant risks facing Ralliant as well as related mitigation efforts. Ralliant expects management to at least annually provide the full Board with an overview of its enterprise risk management program.

Human Capital Management and Succession Planning

The Board has delegated to the Compensation Committee the responsibility of overseeing Ralliant’s human capital

management practices. Our Senior Vice President – Chief People Officer provides reports to the Compensation Committee on

human capital management matters, including employee engagement, inclusion, talent development, and culture. The

Compensation Committee reports to the full Board following each of its regularly scheduled meetings. The Board also remains

actively involved, frequently discusses talent matters at its meetings, and receives at least an annual update on organizational

health from our Senior Vice President – Chief People Officer.

The full Board oversees senior management succession planning, with the responsibility of review and oversight of the process

for Ralliant’s CEO succession plan delegated to the Nominating and Governance Committee. In accordance with our Corporate

Governance Guidelines, at least annually, the Board reviews and concurs in a management succession plan to provide for

continuity in senior management addressing (i) emergency CEO succession, (ii) CEO succession in the ordinary course of

business, and (iii) succession of the other members of senior management. High-potential leaders are given exposure and

visibility to Board members through formal presentations and at informal events during Board meetings. This engagement gives

the Board insight into the Company’s talent pool and management succession plans.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Cybersecurity

Oversight responsibility for cybersecurity risk is shared by the Board and the Audit Committee. The Board has delegated to the

Audit Committee primary responsibility of exercising oversight with respect to the Company’s cybersecurity risk management.

Ralliant’s Senior Vice President – Chief Technology and Growth Officer and our Chief Information Security Officer report to the

Audit Committee quarterly on cybersecurity matters, including threat landscape developments, metrics used to monitor the

effectiveness of the Company’s cybersecurity program, and third-party reviews and assessments. The Audit Committee reports

to the full Board on matters discussed during its meetings, and in 2026, we expect to provide the full Board an overview of

Ralliant’s cybersecurity program. The Company also has protocols by which certain cybersecurity incidents are escalated and,

where appropriate, reported to the Audit Committee in a timely manner.

For more information on our cybersecurity risk management, strategy, and governance, see “Item 1C. Cybersecurity” of our

Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

Artificial Intelligence

Ralliant incorporates AI solutions, including generative AI, into the Company’s products, services, operations, and

developmental processes. Ralliant has established an AI Governance Committee, composed of leaders across a variety of

business, technology, and support functions, to oversee the creation and implementation of risk control and strategic

frameworks. The full Board oversees Ralliant’s strategy and risk management related to AI and receives periodic updates from

management on Ralliant’s AI initiatives and governance.

Corporate Responsibility

The Nominating and Governance Committee assists the Board in its oversight of Ralliant’s corporate responsibility matters,

including sustainable business practices and strategies. Operating responsibly and sustainably is a foundational aspect of RBS

and is embedded across Ralliant and its operating companies. RBS drives sustainability by aiming to improve efficiencies,

reduce waste, and foster continuous improvement in day-to-day operations. Additionally, Ralliant’s products and services

enable customers to be more sustainable in their own operations and help to create a more sustainable and resilient

infrastructure through precision technologies. For example, Qualitrol plays a key role in power grid modernization efforts by

providing essential electrical asset monitoring equipment, data, and analytics to utilities and power companies that reduce

unplanned outages, optimize asset performance and energy efficiency, and extend the operational life of critical

power infrastructure.

Following the Separation and with the oversight of the Nominating and Governance Committee, the management team is in the

process of developing a sustainability strategy for Ralliant, which includes seeking input from our stockholders, customers,

and employees.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Investor Engagement

The Board and management believe in transparent and open communication with investors. The Ralliant Investor Relations

team routinely engages in dialogue with stockholders and prospective stockholders on various topics, including business

strategy, financial performance, and capital allocation plans. Since May 2025, management has met with stockholders

representing over 70% of shares outstanding and presented at seven conferences to help investors gain better insight into our

growth strategy and financial performance.

In addition to these ongoing meetings, in early 2026, Ralliant conducted an inaugural round of investor engagement focused

primarily on governance topics. As part of this engagement effort, Ralliant contacted stockholders representing approximately

48% of our outstanding shares at the time of outreach, and members of management met with stockholders representing

approximately 42% of outstanding shares. In these conversations, management discussed a variety of topics, including

corporate governance, executive compensation, corporate responsibility, and other strategic matters. Ralliant looks forward to

continuing this dialogue.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Other Governance Matters

Corporate Governance Guidelines and Code of Conduct

The Board has adopted a set of Corporate Governance Guidelines, which include guidelines and standards with respect to the

role and composition of the Board, the functioning of the Board and its committees, director orientation and continuing

education, Board and committee self-evaluations, access to management and independent advisors, and other matters. The

Nominating and Governance Committee regularly reviews and assesses corporate governance developments and

recommends to the Board modifications to the Corporate Governance Guidelines as appropriate. The Board has also adopted

our Code of Conduct that includes, among other things, a code of business conduct and ethics for directors, officers, and

employees. The Corporate Governance Guidelines and the Code of Conduct are each available on the Investors section of

Ralliant’s website, https://investors.ralliant.com, under “Governance.”

Communicating with the Board

Stockholders and other interested parties may communicate with the Board, individual directors, the non-management directors

as a group, or with the Chair of the Board by mailing correspondence to the attention of the Board of Directors of Ralliant

Corporation, c/o Chief Legal and Government Affairs Officer and Corporate Secretary, 4114 Center at North Hills Street, Suite

400, Raleigh, North Carolina 27609. The Corporate Secretary or Assistant Corporate Secretary reviews and forwards

communications to the directors as appropriate. We will generally not forward a communication that is primarily commercial in

nature, is improper, profane or offensive, or is a request for general information about Ralliant.

Certain Legal Proceedings

SEC rules require us to describe certain legal proceedings involving any of our directors, director nominees, or executive

officers that occurred within the past 10 years. Prior to joining Ralliant as Senior Vice President – Chief Financial Officer in June

2025, Neill Reynolds had served as the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Wolfspeed, Inc. (“Wolfspeed”)

from August 2018 through May 2025. Following Mr. Reynolds’s departure, on June 30, 2025, Wolfspeed filed voluntary petitions

under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in federal bankruptcy court to implement a prepackaged Chapter 11 plan of

reorganization. On September 29, 2025, Wolfspeed announced the completion of its financial restructuring process and

emergence from Chapter 11 protection.

2026 Proxy Statement 33

Certain Relationships and Related

Person Transactions

Policy and Procedures

The Board has adopted a written Related Person Transactions Policy (the “RPT Policy”) setting forth the policies and

procedures for the review and approval of transactions in which related persons have a direct or indirect material interest that

are required to be reported under SEC rules. Related persons include directors and executive officers as well as greater than

5% stockholders of the Company and members of their immediate families.

To help identify related person transactions and relationships, each director and executive officer completes a questionnaire

that requires the disclosure of any transaction or relationship that the person, or any member of his or her immediate family,

has or is proposed to have with Ralliant. The Company’s Chief Legal and Government Affairs Officer is primarily responsible for

the development and implementation of processes and controls to obtain information from the directors and executive officers

about any such transactions. The Chief Legal and Government Affairs Officer is also responsible for determining whether a

transaction or relationship constitutes a related person transaction requiring compliance with the RPT Policy.

Under the RPT Policy, the Nominating and Governance Committee is required to review all related person transactions prior to

consummation. If the Chief Legal and Government Affairs Officer becomes aware of a related person transaction that has not

been previously approved, the transaction is submitted to the Nominating and Governance Committee at its next meeting.

The Nominating and Governance Committee is required to review and consider all relevant information available to it about

each related person transaction, and a transaction is considered approved under the RPT Policy if the Nominating and

Governance Committee authorizes it according to the terms of the RPT Policy after full disclosure of the related person’s

interests in the transaction and other relevant facts. Related person transactions of an ongoing nature are required to be

reviewed annually by the Nominating and Governance Committee. The definition of “related person transactions” for purposes

of the RPT Policy covers the transactions that are required to be disclosed under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K under the

Exchange Act.

Agreements with Fortive

On June 28, 2025, Ralliant completed the Separation from Fortive. In connection with the Separation, our subsidiaries that

currently operate our businesses and the corresponding assets and liabilities were transferred to Ralliant, which, prior to such

transfer, were held by Fortive. Prior to the Separation, Fortive owned 100% of the common shares of Ralliant. Following the

Separation, Fortive and Ralliant operate as separate publicly traded companies, and currently neither entity has any ownership

interest in the other.

In connection with the Separation, Fortive and Ralliant entered into a separation and distribution agreement as well as various

other related agreements that govern the Separation and the relationships between Fortive and Ralliant going forward,

including an employee matters agreement, a tax matters agreement, a transition services agreement, an intellectual property

matters agreement, a Fortive Business System (“FBS”) license agreement, and a Fort Solutions license agreement.

These agreements provide for the allocation of assets, employees, liabilities, and obligations (including investments, property,

employee benefits, and tax-related assets and liabilities) between Fortive and Ralliant attributable to periods prior to, at, and

after the Separation and govern certain relationships between Fortive and Ralliant after the Separation. Each of these

agreements is described further below.

Each of the agreements between us and Fortive and its subsidiaries that were entered into prior to the Separation, and any

transactions contemplated thereby, were deemed to be approved and not subject to the terms of the RPT Policy

described above.

34

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS

Separation and Distribution Agreement

Ralliant entered into a separation and distribution agreement with Fortive immediately prior to the distribution of its common

stock to Fortive shareholders (the “Separation and Distribution Agreement”). The Separation and Distribution Agreement sets

forth the agreements with Fortive regarding the principal actions to be taken in connection with the Separation. It also sets forth

other agreements that govern certain aspects of Ralliant’s relationship with Fortive following the Separation.

Pursuant to the terms of the Separation and Distribution Agreement, Ralliant was subject to cash adjustment provisions, with

payment of such adjustments to be made within five business days of the determination of the applicable final cash balance.

Pursuant to the adjustment provisions, Ralliant’s aggregate cash balance at the time of the Separation, excluding any cash in

certain restricted jurisdictions, was determined to have been greater than the reference cash balance of $150 million, and

therefore, Ralliant was obligated to pay Fortive the excess. Subsequent to the Separation, Fortive notified Ralliant the

aggregate cash balance exceeded such reference cash balance by approximately $41 million, and Ralliant paid Fortive in

accordance with the terms of the Separation and Distribution Agreement in the year ended December 31, 2025.

Employee Matters Agreement

Ralliant and Fortive entered into an employee matters agreement that governs Ralliant’s and Fortive’s compensation and

employee benefit obligations with respect to the employees and other service providers of each company, and generally will

allocate liabilities and responsibilities relating to employment matters, employee compensation, and benefit plans and programs

(the “Employee Matters Agreement”).

The Employee Matters Agreement provided that each Fortive equity award held by Ralliant employees that was outstanding

immediately prior to the completion of the distribution would be assumed by Ralliant and converted into a Ralliant equity award

denominated in shares of Ralliant common stock with a comparable value, based on an equity award adjustment ratio to be

adopted by Fortive for purposes of making equitable adjustments to the Fortive equity awards held by Ralliant employees.

The Employee Matters Agreement provided that, following the completion of the distribution, Ralliant employees generally will

no longer participate in benefit plans sponsored or maintained by Fortive and will commence participation in Ralliant benefit

plans, which are generally similar to the existing Fortive benefit plans.

The Employee Matters Agreement also sets forth the general principles relating to employee matters, including with respect to

the assignment and transfer of employees, the assumption and retention of liabilities and related assets, workers’

compensation, payroll taxes, regulatory filings, leaves of absence, the provision of comparable benefits, employee service

credit, the sharing of employee information, and the duplication or acceleration of benefits.

Tax Matters Agreement

In connection with the Separation, Ralliant and Fortive entered into a tax matters agreement that governs the parties’ respective

rights, responsibilities, and obligations with respect to taxes, including responsibility for tax liabilities, entitlement to tax refunds

and other tax benefits, allocation of tax attributes, preparation and filing of tax returns, control of audits and other tax

proceedings, and other matters relating to taxes (the “Tax Matters Agreement”). In general, and subject to certain exceptions

(including with respect to certain transaction taxes triggered by the Separation), under the Tax Matters Agreement, Ralliant will

be responsible for any U.S. federal, state, local, or foreign taxes (and any related interest, penalties, or audit adjustments)

imposed with respect to tax returns that include only Ralliant and/or any of Ralliant’s subsidiaries. Ralliant will generally be

responsible for preparing and filing any such tax returns, and will generally have the authority to control tax contests with

respect thereto.

In addition, the Tax Matters Agreement imposes certain restrictions on Ralliant and its subsidiaries designed to preserve the

tax-free status of the distribution and certain related transactions, as well as the intended tax treatment of certain transactions

entered into pursuant to the internal restructuring. Ralliant (and its subsidiaries) will be barred from taking any action, or failing

to take any action, if such action or failure to act would adversely affect, or could reasonably be expected to adversely affect,

the tax-free status or other intended tax treatment of these transactions. In addition, for the two-year period following the

distribution, Ralliant (and its subsidiaries) will be subject to specific restrictions on its ability to enter into certain capital-raising,

strategic, or other corporate transactions, including restrictions on: (i) mergers and other acquisition or sale transactions

involving Ralliant’s stock, (ii) any corporate transaction which would cause Ralliant to undergo a 50% or greater change in its

stock ownership (as determined for purposes of Section 355(e) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the

“Code”) ), (iii) redemptions or repurchases of its stock, (iv) liquidation transactions, (v) discontinuing the active conduct of its

2026 Proxy Statement 35

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS

trade or business, (vi) issuance or sale of its stock or othe r securities (including securities convertible into its stock, but

excluding certain compensatory arrangements), (vii) sales of assets outside of the ordinary course of business, and (viii)

amendments to its certificate of incorporation (or other organizational documents) or other actions affecting the voting rights of

Ralliant’s common stock.

The Tax Matters Agreement provides special rules that allocate tax liabilities in the event the distribution, together with certain

related transactions, as well as any transaction entered into pursuant to the internal reorganization that is intended to be

tax-free for applicable tax law purposes, is not tax-free (or otherwise fails to qualify for its intended tax treatment). In general,

under the Tax Matters Agreement, each party is expected to be responsible for any taxes, whether imposed on Ralliant or

Fortive, that arise from (1) the failure of the distribution, together with certain related transactions, to qualify for tax-free

treatment under the Code or (2) the failure of certain related transactions to qualify for their intended tax treatment, in each

case, to the extent that the failure to so qualify is attributable to post-distribution actions by such party or transactions with

respect to such party’s stock, or to a breach of certain representations or covenants made by that party in the Tax Matters

Agreement or in any documents relating to the Internal Revenue Service ruling or opinions of tax advisors obtained in

connection with the distribution, certain related transactions, or the internal restructuring.

Pursuant to the terms of the Tax Matters Agreement, Ralliant is required to reimburse Fortive or pay taxing authorities directly

for an amount contractually agreed with Fortive of approximately $51.0 million. Of the approximately $51.0 million of tax

transaction costs, $50.0 million was paid during 2025 and $1.1 million was accrued as a payable due to Fortive as of December

31, 2025. The total tax transaction costs of $51.0 million were recognized in the third quarter and were recorded as an offset to

additional paid-in capital as the items represent a settlement with Fortive in accordance with the Tax Matters Agreement.

Transition Services Agreement

Ralliant and Fortive have entered into a transition services agreement that became effective upon the distribution, pursuant to

which Fortive and its subsidiaries and Ralliant and its subsidiaries provide to each other, for an interim, transitional period,

various services in order to help ensure an orderly transition following the Separation and the distribution (the “Transition

Services Agreement”). The cost of these services is negotiated between Ralliant and Fortive as set forth in the Transition

Services Agreement.

The Transition Services Agreement terminates on the expiration of the term of the last service provided under it, unless earlier

terminated by either party under certain circumstances, including, but not limited to, in the event of any uncured material breach

by the other party or its applicable affiliates. If no term period is provided for a specified service, then such service is to

terminate on the second anniversary of the effective date of the Transition Services Agreement. The recipient of a particular

service generally can terminate that service prior to the scheduled expiration date, subject to a minimum notice period equal to

30 days.

Ralliant does not expect the net costs associated with the Transition Services Agreement to be materially different than the

historical costs that have been allocated to Ralliant related to these same services prior to the Separation.

Per the Transition Services Agreement, Fortive and Ralliant provide to each other certain specified services on a temporary

basis, including various information technology, financial, and administrative services. The costs of these services are

negotiated between Ralliant and Fortive as set forth in the Transition Services Agreement and were immaterial during the year

ended December 31, 2025.

Intellectual Property Matters Agreement

Ralliant and Fortive entered into an intellectual property matters agreement pursuant to which Fortive granted to Ralliant a

non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid-up, worldwide, irrevocable, sublicensable (subject to the restrictions below) license to use

certain intellectual property rights retained by Fortive (the “Intellectual Property Matters Agreement”). Ralliant will be able to

sublicense its rights in connection with activities relating to Ralliant and its affiliates’ business but not for independent use by

third parties.

Ralliant will also grant back to Fortive a non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid-up, worldwide, irrevocable, sublicensable (subject

to the restrictions below) license to continue to use certain intellectual property rights owned by or transferred to Ralliant.

Fortive will be able to sublicense its rights in connection with activities relating to Fortive’s and its affiliates’ retained business

but not for independent use by third parties. This license-back will permit Fortive to continue to use certain of Ralliant’s

36

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS

intellectual property rights in the conduct of its remaining businesses. Ralliant believes that the license-back will have little

impact on its businesses because Fortive’s use of intellectual property rights is generally limited to products and services that

are not part of Ralliant’s businesses.

The Intellectual Property Matters Agreement is intended to provide freedom to operate in the event that any of Fortive’s retained

trade secrets (excluding FBS), copyrights, or patented technology is used in any of Ralliant’s businesses, and, as such, applies

to all portions of Ralliant’s businesses. However, Ralliant believes there may be relatively little use of such retained trade

secrets, copyrights, or patented technology in its businesses, and as a result, Ralliant does not believe that the Intellectual

Property Matters Agreement has a material impact on any of its businesses.

FBS License Agreement

Ralliant and Fortive entered into a license agreement (the “FBS License Agreement”) pursuant to which Fortive granted Ralliant

a non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid-up, worldwide, sublicensable (subject to the restrictions below) license to use the FBS

solely in support of Ralliant’s business. Ralliant will be able to sublicense such license to direct and indirect, wholly-owned

subsidiaries (but only as long as such entities remain direct and indirect, wholly-owned subsidiaries), and to third parties to

support its own business. In addition, in the unlikely event that either Ralliant or Fortive patents any invention claiming an

improvement on FBS within the first two years of the term of the FBS License Agreement, the party who acquires that patent

will license the other party under the same terms described above, but with no obligation to disclose any such improvements.

Ralliant anticipates that FBS, which was rebranded as RBS as used by Ralliant following the distribution, will be used by its

various businesses and functions to continuously improve performance.

Fort Solutions License Agreement

Ralliant and Fortive entered into a license agreement pursuant to which Fortive granted Ralliant a non-exclusive, royalty-free,

fully paid-up, worldwide, license to use certain software modules, algorithms, processes, tools, feedback, and reports

developed through the use of Fortive’s Fort Technology Platform (“Solutions”) used in Ralliant’s business as of the distribution

date, solely in support of Ralliant’s business (the “Fort Solutions License Agreement”). Ralliant will be able to sublicense such

license to direct and indirect, wholly-owned subsidiaries (but only as long as such entities remain direct and indirect,

wholly-owned subsidiaries), and to third parties to support its own business. To the extent Ralliant provides Fortive with any

feedback with respect to the Solutions Ralliant is licensed, Ralliant will grant Fortive a non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid-up,

worldwide, license to use such feedback in Fortive’s own business. In addition, in the unlikely event that either Ralliant or

Fortive patents any invention claiming an improvement on the Solutions that are licensed to Ralliant within the first two years of

the term of the Fort Solutions License Agreement, the party who acquires that patent will license the other party under the same

terms described above, but with no obligation to disclose any such improvements.

2026 Proxy Statement 37

Director Compensation

Director Compensation Policy

The Compensation Committee reviews Ralliant’s non-employee director compensation policy periodically with the advice of its

independent compensation consultant and recommends changes to the Board, as appropriate.

Each non-management director receives:

• An annual retainer of $100,000, payable in cash or in restricted stock units (“RSUs”) pursuant to an election made by each

director in the prior year (subject to certain exceptions for newly appointed directors, which, in 2025, are applicable to all

non-management directors as a result of the Separation) under the terms of the Non-Employee Directors’ Deferred

Compensation Plan described below (the “Election”).

• An annual equity award with a target award value of $165,000 in the form of RSUs. The RSUs will vest upon the earlier of (1)

the first anniversary of the grant date, or (2) the date of, and immediately prior to, the next annual meeting of stockholders in

the year following the grant date. The settlement of equity awards may be deferred under the terms of the Non-Employee

Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan.

• Reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses, including travel expenses and expenses for education, related to the director’s

service on the Board.

In addition, the Independent Board Chair receives an additional annual award of $100,000 consisting of:

• An annual retainer of $50,000, payable in cash or in RSUs pursuant to the Election.

• An annual equity award with a target award value of $50,000 in the form of RSUs on the same vesting terms and eligible for

deferral as described above.

Due to their additional responsibilities, the Chairs of our committees receive the following additional annual cash retainers:

$25,000 for the Audit Committee Chair; $20,000 for the Compensation Committee Chair; and $15,000 for the Nominating and

Governance Committee Chair, in each case, payable pursuant to the Election.

Pursuant to the Non-Employee Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan, each director may make an election during the prior

year (subject to certain exceptions for newly appointed directors) to receive the director’s annual retainer, including the annual

retainer payable to all directors, additional annual retainer payable to the Independent Board Chair, and the additional annual

retainer payable to the Committee Chairs in:

• cash payable in four equal installments following each quarter of service;

• RSUs with a target value equal to the annual retainer and granted concurrently with the annual equity award that will:

• vest upon the earlier of (1) the first anniversary of the grant date, or (2) the date of, and immediately prior to, the next

annual meeting of stockholders following the grant date;

• not be settled in shares until the earlier of the director’s death or, based on the election made by the director, the first day

of the seventh month, first year, third year, or fifth year following the director’s retirement from the Board; or

• a combination of cash and RSUs.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

Fiscal 2025 Director Compensation

The following table sets forth the compensation earned or paid to each of the Company’s non-employee directors who served

on the Board in fiscal 2025.

Luis Müller (3) 264,008 264,008
Anelise Sacks 50,000 164,365 214,365
Neil Schrimsher (3) 50,000 164,365 214,365
Alan Spoon Nominating and Governance Committee Chair 57,500 164,365 221,865
Brian Worrell Audit Committee Chair 62,500 164,365 226,865

(1) The amounts reflected in this column represent the aggregate grant date fair value of the applicable award computed in accordance with

Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 (“FASB ASC Topic 718”). With respect to stock awards,

the grant date fair value under FASB ASC Topic 718 is calculated based on the number of shares of our common stock underlying the

award, multiplied by the closing price of a share of common stock on the date of grant.

(2) The table below sets forth as to each non-employee director the aggregate number of unvested RSUs as of December 31, 2025. The RSUs

set forth in the table below vest in accordance with the terms described above.

Name RSUs (#)
Kevin Bryant 3,403
Kate Mitchell 4,641
Ganesh Moorthy 4,434
Luis Müller 5,466
Anelise Sacks 3,403
Neil Schrimsher 3,403
Alan Spoon 3,403
Brian Worrell 3,403

(3) Pursuant to the Non-Employee Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan, each of the directors was entitled to defer up to 100% of the annual

retainer into RSUs with a target value equal to the amount of the annual retainer deferred. For 2025 compensation, Ms. Mitchell elected to

defer 50% of her annual and committee chair retainers and 100% of her RSUs, and Mr. Müller elected to defer 100% of his annual retainer

and 100% of his RSUs. Mr. Bryant and Mr. Schrimsher each deferred 100% of their RSUs. Since RSUs granted in 2025 for the annual

retainer deferred are accounted for under FASB ASC Topic 718, they are reported under the “Stock Awards” column in the table above.

Director Stock Ownership Guidelines

T o provide for our directors to become and remain meaningfully invested in our common stock, non-employee directors are

required to own shares of common stock having a market value equal to five times the annual retainer fee payable to them. A

non-employee director must meet the stock ownership requirement within five years of becoming a member of the Board.

Once a director has acquired a number of shares that satisfies the ownership multiple, such number of shares then becomes

such director’s minimum ownership requirement (even if his or her retainer increases or the fair market value of such shares

subsequently declines). In addition to shares beneficially owned by non-employee directors, the full value of unvested RSUs is

counted for purposes of determining a director’s compliance with the stock ownership requirement.

2026 Proxy Statement 39

PROPOSAL 2

Advisory Vote to Approve Ralliant’s Named

Executive Officer Compensation in Fiscal 2025

As required by Section 14A of the Exchange Act, we are requesting that our stockholders approve, on an advisory basis, the

compensation of our named executive officers (“NEOs”) as described in detail in this Proxy Statement. This vote is commonly

known as “Say-on-Pay.”

Stockholders should review the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section of this Proxy Statement beginning on page 41

and the Summary Compensation Table and other executive compensation information and tables beginning on page 56 for

information on our executive compensation programs and other important items.

We believe that the information provided in this Proxy Statement demonstrates that our executive compensation program is

designed to link pay to performance and align the interests of our executives with those of our stockholders. Accordingly, the

Board recommends that stockholders approve the compensation of our NEOs through an advisory vote on the following

resolution:

RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Company’s NEOs, as disclosed in this Proxy Statement pursuant to the

compensation disclosure rules of the SEC, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables,

and related narrative discussion, is hereby approved.

Although the result of the Say-on-Pay vote is non-binding, the Ralliant Compensation Committee and the Board value the

opinions that stockholders express in their votes and will carefully consider the results of the vote when making future executive

compensation decisions.

The Board recommends a vote FOR the approval of the compensation of our NEOs in fiscal 2025.

40

PROPOSAL 3

Advisory Vote on the Frequency of Future Advisory Votes to

Approve Ralliant’s Named Executive Officer Compensation

We are also asking our stockholders to cast an advisory vote on how frequently stockholders should have an opportunity to

vote on an advisory basis to approve the compensation of our NEOs. We are required by law to hold an advisory vote on the

frequency of Say-on-Pay votes every six years and stockholders may vote to hold the advisory vote on Say-on-Pay every one,

two, or three years, or abstain from voting. This vote is commonly known as “Say-on-Frequency.”

We recognize that the widely adopted standard is to hold Say-on-Pay votes annually. We also acknowledge current stockholder

expectations and preferences regarding having the ability to express their views on the compensation of the Company’s NEOs

on an annual basis.

In light of investor expectations and prevailing market practice, we are asking stockholders to approve, on an advisory basis, a

frequency period of “1 YEAR” (an annual vote) for future Say-on-Pay votes. Although the result of the Say-on-Frequency vote is

non-binding, the Ralliant Compensation Committee and the Board will review the results of the vote and investor feedback and

will consider the outcome of the vote when making future decisions regarding the frequency of conducting a Say-on-Pay vote.

The Board recommends a vote for holding future Say-on-Pay votes every 1 YEAR .

Executive Compensation

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

In June 2025, Ralliant completed the Separation and became an independent, publicly traded company. Due to the mid-year

timing of the Separation, many of the decisions relating to the 2025 compensation of our NEOs were made by either the

Compensation Committee of Fortive’s Board of Directors or by Fortive’s executive management. These decisions were

grounded in Fortive’s compensation philosophies and policies and designed to support the success of the Separation. This

Compensation Discussion and Analysis (“CD&A”) includes information on historical programs and compensation decisions

made by Fortive prior to the Separation, as well as decisions made by the Ralliant Compensation Committee after the

Separation.

For the 2025 fiscal year, our NEOs wer e:

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Executive Summary

2025 Performance

2025 was a defining year for Ralliant. In June 2025, Ralliant successfully completed the Separation and launched as an

independent, publicly traded company. The leadership team, including our NEOs, played an integral role in completing the

Separation and developing the infrastructure needed to operate effectively as a standalone public company, while advancing

innovation and strengthening our growth culture. Ralliant built the foundation to deliver on its long-term value creation priorities,

centered on profitable growth, durable cash generation, and disciplined capital allocation. We also returned capital to

stockholders through the initiation of our quarterly dividend and the Board’s approval of a $200 million share repurchase

authorization, pursuant to which we commenced repurchases in the first quarter of 2026.

Highlights of our 2025 performance include:

~$2.1B Revenue $398M Operating Cash Flow $358M Free Cash Flow*

  • Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Appendix - Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a reconciliation of non-GAAP

measures to the most directly GAAP measures.

Compensation Philosophy

Our executive compensation program is designed to attract, motivate, and retain the talented leaders who drive our success

and deliver performance aligned with our strategic plan. We reward innovation, profitable growth, strong working capital

management, and collaboration—working together as one team—while balancing Company and individual performance .

Alignment with our stockholders is a top priority, and a significant portion of our NEOs’ compensation is directly tied to Company

performance and stockholder value creation.

We aim to achieve these objectives through a program that:

• Provides competitive target total direct compensation opportunities benchmarked against our peer group, with flexibility to

adjust for role scope, individual experience, qualifications, performance, business needs, and unique market considerations.

• Emphasizes performance-based compensation: approximately 87% of the CEO’s fiscal 2025 annual target pay and 69% (on

average) for our NEOs is at risk, which increased to 88% and 75%, respectively, in the fiscal 2026 compensation program

approved by the Ralliant Compensation Committee.

• Prioritizes long-term alignment with stockholders by providing a significant portion of annual target total direct compensation

in stock-based awards with multi-year vesting and/or performance requirements.

• Promotes strong performance without undue risk, supported by strong governance practices including our stock ownership

guidelines and a robust clawback policy.

compensation topics. As part of this engagement effort, we contacted stockholders representing approximately 48% of our

outstanding shares at the time of outreach, and members of management met with stockholders representing approximately

42% of outstanding shares.

In these conversations, management discussed a variety of topics, including our approach to executive compensation, the

guiding principles and philosophy of the Ralliant Compensation Committee, and compensation governance practices. For

additional information on Ralliant’s engagement efforts, please see the “Investor Engagement” section of this Proxy Statement

on page 31 .

Timeline and Separation from Fortive

Our 2025 executive compensation structure, both before and after the Separation, consisted of three core elements: base

salary, annual incentives, and long-term incentive awards. Prior to and in preparation for the Separation, Fortive appointed two

existing and three newly hired executives to become Ralliant’s executive team and entered into offer letters with each executive

as described more fully below under “Offer Letters and Awards Related to the Separation.” Fortive set each element of our

NEOs’ 2025 compensation.

Offer Letters and Awards Related to the Separation

Each of the NEOs received offer letters from Fortive that were assumed by Ralliant, and which remained in effect following the

Separation (each, an “Offer Letter”). The Offer Letters outline the applicable NEO’s base salary, target EICP award value, and

the target value of LTI , in each case, for fiscal 2025 (collectively, “2025 Target Total Direct Compensation”), with his or her base

salary and eligibility to participate in the EICP and receive LTI awards subject to annual review and adjustment. The Offer

Letters also provide for participation in the Ralliant Corporation Severance and Change in Control Plan for Officers and the

Ralliant Executive Deferred Incentive Plan, relocation benefits in connection with the applicable NEO’s relocation to Ralliant’s

new headquarters in the Raleigh, North Carolina metropolitan area, an annual cash stipend of $10,000 per year to be applied

toward financial planning and counseling services, and eligibility for an annual executive physica l, along with eligibility to

participate in employee benefit plans available to other employees. As a condition to accepting employment and receiving long-

term incentive compensation, the NEOs entered into, and remain bound by, restrictive covenant agreements that include post-

termination non-compete, non-solicitation, and confidentiality covenants to the extent permitted by law.

The following table shows the 2025 Target Total Direct Compensation for our NEOs .

Name Base Salary Target EICP — % of Base Salary $
Tami Newcombe $ 1,000,000 125% $ 1,250,000 $ 5,500,000 $ 7,750,000

2026 Proxy Statement 45

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Actual amounts received under the EICP for 2025 for Messrs. Reynolds, Kazmi, and Boatman were prorated based on their

hire date. See the “Executive Incentive Compensation Plan” section on page 47 for additional information.

Certain NEOs also received cash and/or equity awards in connection with their hiring or the Separation, which were granted in

accordance with the Offer Letters.

New Hire Awards

To incentivize Messrs. Reynolds, Kazmi, and Boatman to join the Company, Fortive approved the following new hire awards to

secure each executive’s employment.

Name Signing Bonus Equity Inducement Award
Neill Reynolds $500,000 $2,250,000
Amir Kazmi $500,000 $700,000
Jonathon Boatman $500,000 $600,000

The signing bonus for Mr. Reynolds was fully paid following his employment start date. The signing bonus for Mr. Kazmi is

payable in two installments with the first half payable as of the Separation and the second half payable upon the first

anniversary of his employment with Ralliant. The signing bonus for Mr. Boatman is payable in two installments with the first half

payable as of the Separation and the second half payable on December 31, 2026.

Mr. Reynolds’s equity inducement award consisted of 50% time-vesting RSUs and 50% stock options with vesting in equal

annual installments over four years. Messrs. Kazmi’s and Boatman’s equity inducement awards consisted entirely of RSUs

vesting in equal annual installments over four years.

To protect stockholder interests and prevent windfalls to executives should their employment be terminated under certain

scenarios, the bonuses incorporated repayment terms. Specifically, if a recipient of a signing bonus terminates his or her

employment, or is terminated for “cause” (as defined in the applicable Offer Letter), within 12 months of their employment start

date, the recipient is required to repay the entire signing bonus to Ralliant. If a recipient of a signing bonus terminates his or her

employment, or is terminated for cause, between the first and second anniversaries of his or her employment start date, the

recipient must repay 50% of the signing bonus to Ralliant.

Market Adjustment and Transition Awards

As part of Ms. Newcombe’s Offer Letter, Fortive approved 2025 annual equity awards with an aggregate grant date fair value of

$5,500,000. The awards consisted of her March 2025 annual Fortive equity award with a grant date fair value of $4,500,000,

and a supplemental equity award with a grant date fair value equal to $1,000,000 (the “Market Adjustment Award”) to reflect her

new role as President and Chief Executive Officer of Ralliant. In addition, a one-time equity award with a grant date fair value

equal to $2,000,000 (the “Transition Award”) was provided in recognition of equity opportunity foregone from the truncation of

certain outstanding performance stock units (“PSUs”) due to the Separation. The Ralliant Compensation Committee granted the

Market Adjustment Award and the Transition Award, each of which consists of 50% RSUs and 50% stock options vesting in

equal installments on each of the third and fourth anniversaries of the grant.

Founders Awards

In recognition of each NEO’s extraordinary effort and contributions towards preparing for and executing a successful

Separation, Fortive set, and the Ralliant Compensation Committee granted, one-time equity awards to the NEOs

(“Founders Awards”).

Name Founders Award
Tami Newcombe $2,125,000
Neill Reynolds $1,500,000
Amir Kazmi $1,000,000
Jonathon Boatman $400,000
Karen Bick $1,000,000

46

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Ms. Newcombe’s and Mr. Reynolds’s Founders Awards consisted of 50% RSUs and 50% stock options. Messrs. Kazmi and

Boatman and Ms. Bick received Founders Awards consisting of 100% RSUs. 50% of the Founders Awards will vest on the first

anniversary of the grant and 25% of the Founders Awards will vest on each of the second and third anniversaries of the date

of grant.

The primary objectives of these awards were to enhance the near-term performance and retention incentives for a new

leadership team standing up a new, publicly traded company well-positioned for long-term success. Absent special

circumstances, the Ralliant Compensation Committee does not expect to use special, one-time equity awards in the near term

to supplement the annual executive compensation program .

2025 NEO Compensation

The principal components of Ralliant’s executive compensation program include base salary, annual cash incentive

compensation, and long-term equity incentives.

Element Primary Objectives
Base Salary Attract and retain executive talent Recognize day-to-day role and scope of responsibility and impact Provide stable source of income
Annual Incentive Compensation Align compensation with business strategy Reward annual performance on key financial and operational measures Motivate and reward high performance
Long-Term Incentives Drive long-term performance and align the interests of Ralliant’s executives with the delivery of long-term value to stockholders Retain executive talent through an extended vesting period

Base Salary

Base salary is a fixed component of Ralliant’s executive compensation program. The Ralliant Compensation Committee

believes salary should be commensurate with each executive officer’s role, responsibilities, and experience, and be competitive

with peer group company pay levels for similar positions.

Fortive established each NEO’s base salary prior to the Separation. The Ralliant Compensation Committee did not approve any

base salary increases for the NEOs in 2025 following the Separation.

2026 Proxy Statement 47

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The following table provides the annual base salary rate for each of the NEOs that was established by Fortive and effective as

of the dates in the table below.

Name Effective Date
Tami Newcombe $ 1,000,000 April 1, 2025
Neill Reynolds $ 625,000 June 2, 2025
Amir Kazmi $ 550,000 April 3, 2025
Jonathon Boatman $ 550,000 February 24, 2025
Karen Bick $ 475,000 April 1, 2025

Executive Incentive Compensation Plan

Ralliant adopted the 2025 EICP to align executive compensation with the Company’s business strategy, reward performance

against key financial measures, and incentivize strong individual performance. Under the 2025 EICP, Ralliant provides annual

cash incentives to participants based on the achievement of financial performance measures relating to our business and the

participant’s personal performance. While this CD&A focuses on NEO compensation, the incentive design also applies to other

employees, including certain senior managers, to promote consistent alignment across the organization.

Following the Separation, the Ralliant Compensation Committee established financial performance metrics and goals with

target, minimum, and maximum thresholds and set weightings for each metric. The aggregate of the achieved results is referred

to as the “Company Financial Factor” or “CFF.” Since Ralliant did not become an independent public company until June 2025,

the CFF is based on the combined 2025 performance of our six operating companies: Tektronix, PacSci EMC, Qualitrol,

Hengstler-Dynapar, Gems Setra, and Anderson-Negele.

Determination of the 2025 EICP Payout

Year-End Base Salary X Individual Target Bonus Percentage X Company Financial Factor (CFF) X Personal Performance Factor (PPF)

In 2025, the target incentive for each NEO was equal to their annual base salary as of December 31, 2025, multiplied by the

relevant target award percentage(s) applicable during the year and prorated for the participant’s time with Ralliant. The 2025

actual incentive was equal to the target incentive percentage multiplied by the CFF as well as a personal performance factor

(the “Personal Performance Factor” or “PPF”), described in more detail below. Beginning in the fiscal 2026 performance year,

PPF will no longer be a factor in determining payouts for EICP participants.

Company Financial Factor

In 2025, and given the mid-year Separation, the CFF was based on the combined performance of Ralliant’s six operating

companies against the following metrics:

1. Adjusted Operating Profit, excluding pretax amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, Separation costs, costs

related to significant legal matters, certain restructuring costs, and certain corporate allocations;

2. Organic Revenue Growth, which is calculated as sales from operations growth calculated according to GAAP, but

excluding (a) the impact from acquired and divested businesses and (b) the impact of foreign currency translation; and

3. Working Capital Turnover, which is defined as the weighted average monthly working capital turnover and calculated by

dividing annualized sales by the total of certain current assets, less certain current liabilities.

Adjusted Operating Profit is a key contributor to stockholder returns and a barometer of the overall health of the business while

Organic Revenue Growth is an important measure of the business’s ability to increase customer demand for services and

products over time. Working Capital Turnover is an important indicator of how efficiently the business is deploying its working

capital and converting revenue into cash.

48

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The Compensation Committee adjusts reported results in certain circumstances to eliminate the distorting effect of certain

unusual items on incentive compensation consistent with market practice. For the 2025 EICP, the Compensation Committee

excluded from the Tektronix Adjusted Operating Profit calculation the impact of a $1.4 billion non-cash goodwill impairment

charge to the Test & Measurement reporting unit because it was non-recurring and was not reflective of the financial results of

continuing business operations. The performance of each of the six operating companies was weighted by their revenues

resulting in a CFF equal to 91% of target.

For the 2025 EICP, Ralliant determined not to disclose the specific, pre-determined targets for our operating companies’

performance metrics as they are highly confidential and would provide competitors and third parties with insight into the

Company’s internal planning processes that may allow them to predict certain of our operating companies’ financial and

operational strategies, which could cause us competitive harm. The performance metrics of Adjusted Operating Profit, Organic

Revenue Growth, and Working Capital Turnover for each operating company reflect a range of factors, including growth

outlooks for product portfolios, the competitive environment, internal budgets, external market economic conditions, and market

expectations. The performance targets were set at levels that the Ralliant Compensation Committee believed were challenging

and which generally constitute an improvement over the prior comparable period, in line with Ralliant’s culture of

continuous improvement.

Personal Performance Factor

Following the end of the 2025 performance period, the Ralliant Compensation Committee evaluated the individual performance

of each NEO (other than the CEO) based on recommendations from the CEO and determined a PPF between 0% and 150%

for each individual, taking into account the CEO’s assessment of the achievement of individual objectives, as well as strategic

and operational goals. The Ralliant Compensation Committee similarly evaluated the performance of the CEO and determined

a PPF. Without assigning any particular weight to any individual factor, the Ralliant Compensation Committee took into account

financial performance, the executive’s execution against operational and pre-established personal objectives for the year, and

overall leadership effectiveness.

2026 Proxy Statement 49

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Personal performance objectives for each of the NEOs included the following:

Name 2025 Personal Performance Objectives
Tami Newcombe • Execution of the Separation and the establishment of Ralliant • Establishment of enterprise strategic priorities • Achievement of financial and budgetary goals and the development of the capital allocation strategy • Execution of growth and innovation initiatives • Mitigation of risks of geopolitical events • Enhancement of Ralliant culture, employee engagement, and leadership capability
Neill Reynolds • Execution of the Separation and establishment of Ralliant • Achievement of financial and budgetary goals • Development and execution of capital structure and allocation strategy • Building investor community credibility • Preparation of fiscal 2026 annual operating plan and long-range plan
Amir Kazmi • Execution of the Separation and establishment of Ralliant • Achievement of financial and budgetary goals • Execution of growth and innovation initiatives, including the Ralliant Business System technology and growth strategy
Jonathon Boatman • Execution of the Separation and establishment of Ralliant • Achievement of financial and budgetary goals • Development of the Law and Compliance Department’s strategic plan • Establishment of Ralliant’s governance, compliance, and risk management protocols
Karen Bick • Execution of the Separation and establishment of Ralliant • Achievement of financial and budgetary goals • Building the Ralliant corporate organization • Development of internal and external communications strategy • Enhancement of Ralliant culture and employee engagemen t

As noted above, for the 2026 EICP, the PPF will no longer be a factor in determining payouts for EICP participants.

Calculation of 2025 EICP Payouts

The following table presents the amounts earned under the 2025 EICP by each NEO for fiscal 2025.

Name EICP Target (% of Base Salary) Company Financial Factor Personal Performance Factor Final EICP Payout
Tami Newcombe $ 1,000,000 125% 91% 110% $ 1,251,250

Amir Kazmi $ 550,000 70% 91% 105% $ 275,128
Jonathon Boatman $ 550,000 70% 91% 113% $ 337,343
Karen Bick $ 475,000 70% 91% 128% $ 387,296

(1) T he amounts shown for Messrs. Reynolds, Kazmi, and Boatman have been prorated 58.36%, 74.79%, and 85.21%, respectively, to reflect

the portion of the year worked for the Company.

Long-Term Incentive Awards

During fiscal 2025, the target values for our NEOs’ long-term incentive awards were determined by Fortive. The LTI awards

were granted prior to the Separation by Fortive or on August 15, 2025 by Ralliant based on the terms of the Offer Letters.

Impact of the Separation on Outstanding Equity Awards

Fortive equity awards that were outstanding at the time of the Separation were adjusted with the intent to maintain the

economic value of those awards before and after the distribution date. The terms of the equity awards, such as the vesting

date, continued unchanged. For Ralliant employees at the time of distribution, the awards were converted into Ralliant equity

awards and denominated in shares of Ralliant common stock. Fortive stock options were converted into options of comparable

value to purchase our common stock, and Fortive RSUs were converted into RSUs of comparable value relating to our

common stock.

Benefits and Other Pay Elements

Our NEOs are eligible to participate in broad-based employee benefit plans, which are generally available to all U.S. salaried

employees such as health care, dental, vision, welfare, disability, life insurance, and the Ralliant Retirement Savings Plan

(401(k)). In addition, each of our NEOs participates in the Executive Deferred Incentive Plan (the “EDIP”). The EDIP is a non-

qualified, unfunded deferred compensation program available to selected members of our management.

We use the EDIP to tax-efficiently contribute amounts to executives’ retirement accounts and give our executives an opportunity

to defer taxes on cash compensation and realize tax-deferred, market-based notional investment growth on their deferrals.

We set the amount we contribute annually to the executives’ accounts in the EDIP at a level that we believe is competitive with

comparable plans offered by the companies in our peer group. Participants in the EDIP do not fully vest in such amounts until

they have participated in the program for 15 years or have reached age 55 with at least five years of service. We show the

amounts we contributed to the EDIP for 2025 with respect to our NEOs in the Summary Compensation Table.

We offer limited perquisites to our NEOs. We believe these limited perquisites help make our executive compensation plans

competitive, are generally aligned with market practices, and are cost-effective in that the perceived value of these items is

higher than the actual cost. The perquisites we made available to our NEOs during 2025 include an annual cash stipend of

$10,000 per year to be applied towards financial services and counseling and eligibility for an annual executive physical.

Additional details on the perquisites we made available to our NEOs in 2025 are described in the footnotes to the Summary

Compensation Table.

2026 Proxy Statement 51

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Severance and Change-in-Control Arrangements

Ralliant has a Severance and Change in Control Plan for Officers (the “Severance Plan”), which provides separation payments

and benefits to the NEOs in the event of a qualifying termination of their employment. Among other things, this plan is intended

to support talent recruitment and retention objectives and to provide a consistent approach to executive departures.

Additional information concerning the payments and benefits provided pursuant to the Severance Plan and the circumstances

under which separation payments and benefits will be provided can be found in the “Potential Payments upon Termination or

Change-in-Control” section of this Proxy Statement. Ralliant does not provide excise tax gross-ups on payments provided in

connection with a change-in-control event.

2026 Pay Mix and Incentive Plan Design

As we enter 2026, which will be our first full year as a publicly traded company, the Ralliant Compensation Committee has

approved new incentive programs that reinforce our strategic priorities and align performance with the interests of our

stockholders. In selecting performance metrics for our short- and long‑term incentive programs, the Ralliant Compensation

Committee considered external market practices and stockholder perspectives, while prioritizing measures that reflect how we

manage the business.

The EICP metrics are intended to promote the near‑term behaviors critical to executing our strategy, while the multi‑year

performance metrics for our PSUs are designed to align our leaders with sustained stockholder value creation.

2026 Pay Mix

The target pay mixes for 2026 for the CEO and other NEOs are as follow s .

2026 Executive Incentive Compensation Plan Design

Our 2026 EICP will not have a personal performance component and will be based entirely on the Company’s financial

performance. The Ralliant Compensation Committee believes that basing the NEOs’ EICP on financial performance metrics

appropriately aligns NEO and stockholder interests and focuses NEOs on achieving important business and financial priorities.

The 2026 EICP for executive officers will be based on the following performance measures:

EICP Metric Metric Weight How It Aligns with Ralliant’s Strategic Priorities
Revenue 40% Incentivizes delivery of top-line growth
Adjusted EBITDA 40% Incentivizes profit generation and cost discipline
Free Cash Flow 20% Incentivizes free cash flow generation to enable execution of Ralliant’s capital allocation strategy

52

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

2026 Long-Term Incentive Design

Annual long-term incentive awards granted to NEOs in 2026 consist of 60% PSUs and 40% RSUs. RSUs will vest in equal

tranches on the first, second, and third anniversaries of the grant date, subject to continued service through the applicable

vesting date. PSUs will vest following the end of the three-year performance period on December 31, 2028, subject to

continued service through the date on which the Ralliant Compensation Committee certifies performance of the PSUs based on

the following performance measures:

PSU Performance Metric Metric Weight How It Aligns with Ralliant’s Strategic Priorities
Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share (“Adjusted EPS”) 50% Focus on sustainable, long-term financial performance and aligns management goals with stockholder value creation
Relative Total Shareholder Return versus the S&P 400 MidCap Index (“rTSR”) 50% Aligns executive pay directly with stockholder experience, providing an objective, market-based measure of performance relative to peer firms

The payout range of the PSUs is 0% to 200% depending on the achievement of Adjusted EPS and rTSR. The rTSR component

requires Ralliant TSR equal to the 55th percentile of peer firms to achieve the target payout. In addition, payout is capped at

100% if Ralliant’s TSR is negative, regardless of percentile rank. The PSUs also have a maximum value cap of five times the

target value.

Dividend equivalents will accrue and be reinvested in additional PSUs and RSUs subject to the same performance and vesting

conditions. Dividend equivalents are not paid to holders of RSUs or PSUs until the applicable awards vest.

Compensation-Setting Process

Role of the Ralliant Compensation Committee

The Ralliant Compensation Committee oversees the compensation of Ralliant’s executive officers. The Committee works

closely with the full Board, management, and its independent consultant to examine the effectiveness of the Company’s

compensation program and alignment with the Company strategy throughout the year. Specifically, the Committee:

• Sets Ralliant’s executive compensation philosophy;

• Reviews and approves the amount of compensation, goals, and objectives for the CEO, and in consultation with the CEO,

for the other executive officers;

• Sets the composition of the compensation peer groups;

• Approves long-term incentive grants to executive officers;

• Oversees risk management of Ralliant’s compensation programs, policies, and practices; and

• Assists the Board in its oversight of Ralliant’s human capital management practices.

The Ralliant Compensation Committee may form and delegate authority to subcommittees as it determines appropriate.

In addition, to the extent permitted by applicable law and the provisions of a given equity-based plan, the Committee may

delegate to one or more executive officers or a subcommittee the power to grant equity awards to employees of the Company

or its subsidiaries.

Role of the Independent Compensation Consultant

In connection with the Separation, the Ralliant Compensation Committee engaged Pearl Meyer to serve as its independent

compensation consultant. Pearl Meyer provides services related to Ralliant’s executive compensation program, including

reviewing and advising on:

• Our compensation peer groups;

• Compensation setting for the executive officers, including market benchmarking of pay levels;

• Market competitive practices among peers and their relevance for Ralliant as they relate to incentive design and

incentive goals;

• Form and amount of executive benefits and perquisites;

• Governance-related items including stock ownership guidelines, the compensation clawback policy, and treatment of equity

upon termination; and

• Compensation setting for the Board, including market benchmarking of pay levels .

2026 Proxy Statement 53

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Pearl Meyer reports directly to the Ralliant Compensation Committee. As part of the engagement process, the Ralliant

Compensation Committee reviewed the independence of Pearl Meyer under NYSE and SEC rules and concluded that Pearl

Meyer is independent. In reaching this conclusion, the Ralliant Compensation Committee considered factors relevant to the

consultant’s independence, including the factors set forth in the NYSE listing standards.

Role of Management

Management assists the Ralliant Compensation Committee in discharging its duties by providing information on corporate and

individual performance as well as management’s perspective on certain compensation and human capital management

matters. The Ralliant Compensation Committee solicits and reviews the CEO’s recommendations with respect to the

compensation of executive officers (other than the CEO). Additionally, the Ralliant Compensation Committee considers relevant

market data, roles and responsibilities, and individual performance. Our CEO recuses herself from all discussions and

recommendations regarding her own compensation and is not present when her compensation is determined by the

independent Ralliant Compensation Committee.

Peer Group Benchmarking

The Ralliant Compensation Committee has developed a compensation peer group to better understand and evaluate the

appropriateness and competitiveness of Ralliant’s executive compensation. The analysis, construction, and design of the peer

group was informed by the peer group data and input from Pearl Meyer.

In order to compile an appropriate peer group, the Ralliant Compensation Committee reviewed a set of companies that included

some or all of the following characteristics:

• Publicly traded companies headquartered, and listed on a stock exchange, in the U.S.;

• Companies with revenue between approximately 1/3 to 3x of Ralliant’s revenue with consideration also given to operating

income, market capitalization, and enterprise value; and

• Companies representative of Ralliant’s segments, including Test & Measurement and Sensors & Safety Systems, as well as

our end markets, such as diversified electronics, industrial manufacturing, communications, defense and space, utilities, and

semiconductors.

Based on these criteria, the 2025 peer group included the following companies:

Badger Meter, Inc. IDEX Corporation Novanta, Inc.
Cognex Corporation Itron, Inc. Nordson Corporation
Crane Company Keysight Technologies, Inc. OSI Systems, Inc.
Crane NXT, Co. Littelfuse, Inc. Teledyne Technologies Incorporated
Curtiss-Wright Corporation MKS Inc. Teradyne, Inc.
ESCO Technologies Inc. MSA Safety Incorporated Vontier Corporation

The Ralliant Compensation Committee also considers data from the Radford Executive Compensation Survey and the Willis

Towers Watson Executive Compensation Survey, which are both utilized by Pearl Meyer in its competitive assessment of

executive compensation pay levels.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Other Compensation Matters

Stock Ownership Requirements

To further align management and stockholder interests and discourage inappropriate or excessive risk-taking, Ralliant has

adopted a stock ownership policy that requires each executive officer to obtain a substantial equity stake in Ralliant’s common

stock within five years of his or her appointment to an executive position. The multiples of base salary that the guidelines

require are as follows:

Executive Level Stock Ownership Level (as a multiple of salary)
Chief Executive Officer 5.0x base salary
All Other Executive Officers 3.0x base salary

Once an executive has acquired a number of shares that satisfies the ownership multiple, such number of shares then

becomes his or her minimum ownership requirement (even if the executive’s salary increases or the fair market value of such

shares subsequently changes) until he or she is promoted to a higher level.

Under the stock ownership policy, beneficial ownership includes shares in which the executive or his or her spouse or child has

a direct or indirect interest, notional shares of our common stock in the EDIP, shares held in a 401(k) plan, and unvested RSUs

but does not include shares subject to unexercised stock options or any PSUs.

Compensation Clawback Policy and Plan Terms

The Board has adopted the Ralliant Corporation Clawback Policy (the “Clawback Policy”) that applies to Ralliant’s Section

16 officers. Under the Clawback Policy, in the event of a material restatement of Ralliant’s consolidated financial statements

(other than any restatement required according to a change in applicable accounting rules), Ralliant will seek reimbursement of

the portion of any incentive-based compensation granted, earned, or vested based on the attainment of a financial reporting

measure that would not have been paid had the consolidated financial statements been correctly stated.

In addition to recoupment of incentive-based compensation mandated by the SEC and the NYSE, the Clawback Policy provides

the Ralliant Board with the discretion to also recoup additional incentive-based compensation, whether cash- or equity-based,

from any covered executive if the Ralliant Board determines that the triggering material restatement was at least in part the

result of gross misconduct by such covered executive.

Under the terms of the Ralliant Corporation 2025 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Stock Plan”), all outstanding unvested equity

awards will be terminated immediately upon, and no grantee may exercise any outstanding equity award after, such time as he

or she is terminated for gross misconduct. In addition, under the terms of the Ralliant EDIP if the plan administrator determines

that termination of an employee’s participation in the EDIP resulted from the employee’s gross misconduct, the plan

administrator may determine that the employee’s vesting percentage is zero with respect to all account balances that were

contributed by us.

Equity Award Grant Practices

The Ralliant Compensation Committee has established a practice of granting annual equity awards, including to the NEOs,

each year on March 1. Interim equity grants, such as grants made to newly hired executives, are typically made on the 15 th day

of a calendar month immediately following an earnings release. The Ralliant Compensation Committee does not consider

material non-public information when determining the timing or terms of equity awards , and Ralliant does not time the

disclosure of material non-public information for the purpose of affecting the value of any executive compensation.

The Ralliant Compensation Committee did not grant stock options to any NEO in 2025 during the period beginning four

business days before and ending one business day after the filing or furnishing of a Form 10-K, Form 10-Q, or Form 8-K that

disclosed material non-public information.

Trading in Company Securities

Ralliant has adopted the Ralliant Corporation Insider Trading Policy (the “Insider Trading Policy”) that sets forth policies and

procedures governing the purchase, sale, and other transactions in Ralliant securities by directors, employees, and certain

other persons, and Ralliant has established procedures applicable to transactions by Ralliant itself, which Ralliant believes is

reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and applicable listing standards.

A copy of our Insider Trading Policy was filed as Exhibit 19.1 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended

December 31, 2025.

No Hedging or Pledging

The Insider Trading Policy includes prohibitions applicable to all employees, including NEOs, and directors against engaging at

any time in:

• Short sales of Ralliant securities;

• Transactions in any derivative of a Ralliant security, including puts, calls, or other options (except for instruments granted

under a Ralliant equity compensation plan);

• Other transactions designed to hedge or offset any decrease in the market value of Ralliant securities, including collars,

equity swaps, exchange funds, and prepaid variable forward sale contracts; or

• Holding Ralliant securities in a margin account or otherwise pledging Ralliant securities as collateral under any obligation,

including for a loan.

Tax Deductibility of NEO Compensation

Under Section 162(m) of the Code, compensation paid to each of the CEO, the CFO, and certain of our other NEOs

(collectively, “covered employees”) that exceeds $1 million per taxable year is generally non-deductible. Although the Ralliant

Compensation Committee may review and consider tax implications as one factor in determining executive compensation, the

Ralliant Compensation Committee also looks at other factors in making its decisions and retains the flexibility to provide

compensation for the Company’s covered employees in a manner consistent with the goals of the Company’s executive

compensation program and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, which may include providing for

compensation that is not deductible by the Company.

Compensation Risk Assessment

The Ralliant Compensation Committee engaged Pearl Meyer, its independent compensation consultant, to review our executive

and non-executive compensation programs for risk considerations. The Ralliant Compensation Committee determined, based

on the recommendations received from Pearl Meyer and its own analysis and conclusions, that none of the elements of our

compensation program encourage or create excessive risk-taking, and none is reasonably likely to have a material adverse

effect on the Company. The Ralliant Compensation Committee believes that our executive compensation program supports the

objectives described above without encouraging inappropriate or excessive risk-taking.

Compensation Committee Report

The Ralliant Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis with Company

management and its independent compensation consultant. Accordingly, the Ralliant Compensation Committee recommended

to the Board that this Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Proxy Statement and incorporated by

reference into the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

(1) The amounts reflected in these columns represent the aggregate grant date fair value of all equity awards that we granted to our NEOs,

computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. For all NEOs, the amount in the “Stock Awards” and “Option Awards” columns for 2025

equals the aggregate grant date fair value of all RSUs and stock options, respectively, that were granted to our NEOs during 2025.

With respect to RSUs, we calculated the grant date fair value under FASB ASC Topic 718 based on the base number of shares of common

stock underlying the RSU multiplied by the closing price of the common stock on the date of grant. With respect to stock options, we have

calculated the grant date fair value under FASB ASC Topic 718 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The assumptions made in

calculating the fair value of the RSUs and stock options granted on March 3, 2025 and the RSUs granted on May 15, 2025 are set forth in

Note 13: Stock-Based Compensation to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Fortive’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2025.

Additional information about the assumptions used when valuing the August 15, 2025 RSUs and stock options is set forth in Note 15:

Stock-Based Compensation to the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2025.

Fortive awards that were outstanding at the time of the Separation were converted into Ralliant awards in accordance with the Employee

Matters Agreement in a manner that preserved the award’s value. This conversion of the awards was considered a modification for

accounting purposes and resulted in additional compensation expense for Ralliant but did not result in additional value for any of the

relevant executives. The additional compensation expense recognized for each of the NEO converted awards was $4,234,095 for Ms.

Newcombe, $77,003 for Mr. Kazmi, $66,004 for Mr. Boatman, and $538,395 for Ms. Bick. Mr. Reynolds did not have any awards converted

or any additional compensation expense. For additional details, see Note 15: Stock-Based Compensation to the Consolidated and

Combined Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2025.

(2) The amounts set forth in this column for fiscal 2025 reflect compensation earned during the corresponding fiscal year under Ralliant’s

Executive Incentive Compensation Plan.

(3) Ralliant does not have a defined benefit pension plan for executive officers and does not pay above market earnings on account balances

under the EDIP or pursuant to any other deferred compensation arrangement.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change-in-Control

Consistent with market practice, and to help ensure that Ralliant’s executive officers remain focused on our businesses during

periods of uncertainty and are motivated to pursue transactions in the best interests of stockholders, Ralliant maintains a

Severance and Change in Control Plan for Officers, which we refer to as the “Severance Plan.” It provides for severance

benefits upon (i) a termination without Cause not preceded by a change-in-control and (ii) a termination without Cause, or Good

Reason resignation (each, as defined in the Severance Plan), in each case, within 24 months following a qualified

change-in-control.

“Double Trigger” Change-in-Control Severance. The definition of “change-in-control” is limited to include only:

• a merger, consolidation, or reorganization in which Ralliant is not the surviving entity and in which the voting securities of

Ralliant prior to such transaction would represent 50% or less of the voting securities of the surviving entity;

• sale of all, or substantially all, assets of Ralliant, or

• any transaction approved by the Board that results in any person or entity that is not an affiliate of Ralliant owning 100% of

Ralliant’s outstanding voting securities.

If, within 24 months following a qualifying change-in-control, a NEO is terminated without Cause or resigns for Good Reason,

then the following severance payment would be due:

Compensation CEO OTHER NEOs
Cash Severance Payment 2x base salary and target annual incentive award 1x base salary and target annual incentive award
Cash Annual Incentive Award Target annual incentive award prorated from the beginning of the year to the date of termination Same
Equity Awards Immediate acceleration of all unvested outstanding equity awards, with any performance conditions measured based on target performance Same
Health Benefits 24 months 12 months
280G Excise Tax No tax gross up Same

Termination without Cause Severance. Ralliant provides the following severance benefits under the Severance Plan upon a

termination without Cause other than within 24 months following a qualifying change-in-control:

Compensation CEO OTHER NEOs
Cash Severance Payment 2x base salary 1x base salary
Cash Annual Incentive Award • Payments based on actual performance; and • Prorated from the beginning of the year to the date of termination Same
Equity Awards • Continued vesting of equity awards, prorated from the date of grant to the date of termination, with any performance conditions measured based on actual performance Same
Health Benefits 24 months 12 months
280G Excise Tax No tax gross up Same

The following table describes the payments and benefits that each NEO would be entitled to receive upon a termination of

employment or in connection with a change-in-control of Ralliant. The amounts set forth below assume that the triggering event

occurred on December 31, 2025. Where benefits are based on the market value of our common stock, we have used the

closing price of our common stock as reported on the NYSE on December 31, 2025, the last trading day of the year ($50.91 per

share). In addition to the amounts set forth below, upon any termination of employment, each executive would also be

entitled to (1) receive all payments generally provided to salaried employees on a non-discriminatory basis upon termination,

such as accrued salary, life insurance proceeds (for any termination of employment due to death), unused vacation, and 401(k)

plan distributions, (2) receive accrued, vested balances under the EDIP (except that under the EDIP, if an employee’s

employment terminates as a result of gross misconduct, the EDIP administrator may determine that the employee’s vesting

percentage with respect to all employer contributions is zero), and (3) exercise vested stock options (except that, under the

terms of our Stock Plan, all outstanding equity awards are terminated upon, and no employee can exercise any outstanding

equity award after, termination for gross misconduct). Retirement is defined generally as either a voluntary resignation after age

65 or an approved early retiremen t.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

(1) A description of the severance benefits and cash payments our NEOs would be entitled to receive if we terminate the executive’s

employment without Cause, or upon termination following a change-in-control precedes this table. The amounts set forth in the table

assume that the executive would have executed our standard release in connection with any termination without Cause or termination

following a change-in-control.

(2) The terms of the Stock Plan provide for (a) continued pro-rata vesting of certain of the participant’s RSUs, PSUs, and stock options upon

retirement under certain circumstances, and (b) accelerated vesting of a participant’s stock options and certain of a participant’s RSUs and

PSUs if the participant dies during employment.

(3) Pursuant to the Severance Plan, in the event we terminate an NEO without Cause not in connection with a change-in-control, a prorated

portion of the NEO’s outstanding equity awards will remain outstanding and continue to vest pursuant to the original vesting schedule,

subject to the satisfaction of any performance measures that had not been met prior to the date of the termination. The remaining portion of

such unvested awards would be forfeited. If we terminate an NEO without Cause or an NEO resigns with Good Reason, in either case

within two years following a qualified change-in-control, all unvested equity awards shall become immediately vested (assuming, if

applicable, that any performance goals were met at the target level, irrespective of any actual performance).

(4) Pursuant to the Severance Plan, in the event we terminate an NEO without Cause not in connection with a change-in-control, a prorated

portion of the NEO’s annual incentive award will remain outstanding and be payable at the end of the performance period subject to the

satisfaction of any performance measures that had not been met prior to the date of the termination. If we terminate an NEO without Cause

or an NEO resigns with Good Reason, in either case within two years following a qualified change-in-control, a prorated portion of the

NEO’s target annual incentive award will immediately vest and be paid. None of the annual incentive awards are prorated for purposes of

the table since we assume that the NEO terminated employment on December 31, 2025, which is the end of the performance period for our

annual incentive awards, with assumed performance, in the case of a termination without Cause, based on actual performance and, in the

case of a termination following a change-in-control, based on target performance.

(5) Under the terms of the EDIP, any unvested portion of the employer contributions that have been credited to the participant’s EDIP account

would immediately vest upon the participant’s death. In 2025, Mr. Reynolds, Mr. Kazmi, and Mr. Boatman all had an unvested

EDIP balance.

(1) The RSUs that have been issued under the Stock Plan do not require a payment by the recipient to us at the time of vesting. In addition,

under our EDIP, if a participant receives their EDIP distribution in shares of common stock, the participant’s EDIP balance is converted into

shares of common stock and distributed to the participant at no additional cost. As such, the weighted-average exercise price in column (b)

does not take these awards into account.

(2) Consists of the Stock Plan and the EDIP.

(3) Consists of shares attributable to the Stock Plan and shares attributable to the EDIP. Under the terms of the EDIP, upon distribution of a

participant’s EDIP balance the participant may elect to receive his or her distribution in cash, shares of common stock, or a combination of

cash and shares of common stock (except that any portion of a participant’s account that is subject to the common stock earnings rate must

be distributed in shares of common stock). For purposes of this table, we have assumed that all EDIP balances as of December 31, 2025

would be distributed in common stock.

(4) Consists of shares available for future issuance under the Stock Plan and, based on notional phantom shares representing outstanding

balances in EDIP accounts as of December 31, 2025, shares available for future issuance under the EDIP.

(2) The following table details the total equity award adjustments for the applicable year, including the amounts added (or subtracted, as

applicable) for the PEO and the non-PEO NEOs, as computed in accordance with Item 402(v). In general, the adjustments for equity

awards provided in Item 402(v) are as follows:

• Subtract the amounts reported in the “Stock Awards” and “Option Awards” columns of the Summary Compensation Table for the

applicable fiscal year,

• Add the fair value at fiscal year-end of option and stock awards granted in the covered fiscal year which were outstanding and unvested

at the end of the covered fiscal year,

• Add the change in fair value (which may be a negative number) as of the end of the covered fiscal year as compared to the value at the

end of the prior fiscal year for option and stock awards which were granted in prior fiscal years and were outstanding and unvested at

the end of the covered fiscal year,

• Add the vesting date value of option and stock awards which were granted and vested during the same covered fiscal year,

• Add the change in value (which may be a negative number) as of the vesting date as compared to the value at the end of the prior fiscal

year for option and stock awards which were granted in prior fiscal years and vested in the covered fiscal year,

• Subtract as to any option and stock awards which were granted in prior fiscal years and failed to meet applicable vesting conditions

during the covered fiscal year, the value of such awards as of the end of the prior fiscal year,

• Plus the dollar value of any dividends or other earnings paid during the covered fiscal year on outstanding and unvested awards.

• Plus, as to any option or stock award that was materially modified during the covered fiscal year, the amount by which the value of the

award as of the date of the modification exceeds the value of the original award on the modification date.

In making each of these adjustments, the “value” of an option or stock award is the fair value of the award on the applicable

date determined in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 using the valuation assumptions used to calculate the fair value of

our equity awards. For more information on the valuation of the equity awards, please see the notes to the financial

statements that appear in Ralliant’s Annual Report on Form 10-K each fiscal year and the footnotes to the Summary

Compensation Table that appears in our annual proxy statement.

Shareholder Return (“TSR”) is being calculated. TSR is calculated by dividing the sum of the cumulative amount of dividends for the

measurement period, assuming dividend reinvestment, and the difference between the Company’s share price at the end and the beginning

of the measurement period by the Company’s share price at the beginning of the measurement period.

(4) Represents the peer group TSR, weighted according to the respective companies’ stock market capitalization at the beginning of each

period for which a return is indicated. The peer group used for this purpose is the S&P 600 Industrials Index.

(5) Amount reflects Ralliant Corporation’s net income as calculated pursuant to GAAP and reported in our audited financial statements.

(6) Amount reflects Ralliant Corporation’s adjusted EPS , a non-GAAP measure, as our Company-selected measure. See “Appendix - Non-

GAAP Financial Measures” for a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

The assumptions used to calculate the fair value of equity awards in this section do not materially differ from those used to

calculate the grant date fair value of such awards for purposes of the Summary Compensation Table, except that the fair value

calculations of unvested options in 2025 rely upon an estimated term of 1.4 to 7.4 years, as compared to the six-year estimated

term relied upon to calculate the grant date fair value of such stock options.

Most Important Company Performance Measures for Determining Executive Compensation. In accordance with Item 402(v),

the list below provides, in no particular order, the financial performance measures that Ralliant believes are most important for

purposes of linking compensation actually paid to the NEOs during fiscal 2025 to Ralliant’s performance:

• Adjusted EPS

• Adjusted Operating Profit

• Organic Revenue Growth

• Working Capital Turnover

Pay versus Performance Table Discussion and Analysis. In accordance with Item 402(v) requirements, Ralliant is providing the

following charts to describe the relationships between information presented in the Pay versus Performance table. The following

PROPOSAL 4:

Ratification of the Appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as

Ralliant’s Independent Auditor for Fiscal 2026

The Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, retention, compensation, evaluation, and oversight of Ralliant’s

independent auditor. The Audit Committee has appointed Ernst & Young LLP (“Ernst & Young”) to serve as Ralliant’s

independent auditor for the fiscal year 2026.

The Audit Committee and the Board believe that the continued retention of Ernst & Young to serve as Ralliant’s independent

auditor is in the best interests of Ralliant and its stockholders.

Although stockholder ratification is not required, the Board is asking stockholders to ratify this appointment as a matter of good

corporate governance. If stockholders do not ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young, the Audit Committee will consider any

information submitted by stockholders in connection with the appointment of the independent auditor for the next year. Even if

the appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee, in its discretion, may direct the appointment of a different independent auditor

at any time during the fiscal year if the Audit Committee determines that such a change would be in the best interests of Ralliant

and its stockholders.

Representatives of Ernst & Young are expected to participate in the Annual Meeting, where they will have the opportunity to

make a statement if they desire to do so. They also are expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions.

The Board recommends a vote FOR the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young as Ralliant’s independent auditor for fiscal 2026.

Independent Auditor Fees

Concurrently with the Separation, the Audit Committee appointed Ernst & Young to act as the independent auditor for the

Company and its consolidated subsidiaries for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. Aggregate fees billed to Ralliant for

professional services rendered by Ernst & Young for fiscal 2025 following the Separation are set forth in the table below. For the

fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, Ralliant did not pay any fees for professional services to Ernst & Young. Prior to the

Separation, Fortive Corporation paid certain audit, audit-related, tax, or other fees related to Ralliant’s businesses and those

have been excluded from the table below.

PROPOSAL 4: RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP AS RALLIANT’S INDEPENDENT AUDITOR FOR FISCAL 2026

Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Services of

Independent Auditor

The Audit Committee pre-approves all auditing services and permitted non-audit services to be performed for Ralliant by the

independent auditor. The Audit Committee will consider and, if appropriate, pre-approve the provision of audit and permitted

non-audit services. We maintain procedures requiring that, prior to engagement, all services performed by Ernst & Young must

be pre-approved so that no prohibitive services are inadvertently engaged in and the independence of Ernst & Young is

maintained. The Audit Committee Chair has the delegated authority to pre-approve such services, provided that any approval

by the Audit Committee Chair must be presented to the Audit Committee at its next meeting.

All audit, audit-related, tax, and other services provided by Ernst & Young in 2025 were approved by the Audit Committee.

Audit Committee Report

The Audit Committee is comprised entirely of independent directors who meet the independence requirements of the NYSE and

the SEC. The Audit Committee operates under a written charter that is available on the Investors section of Ralliant’s website,

https://investors.ralliant.com, under “Governance.”

In performing its responsibilities, the Audit Committee has:

• Reviewed and discussed Ralliant’s audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025

with management;

• Discussed with Ralliant’s independent auditor, Ernst & Young, the matters required to be discussed by the applicable

requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”) and the SEC; and

• Received the written disclosures and the letter from Ernst & Young required by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB

regarding the independent accountant’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and has

discussed with Ernst & Young its independence.

Based on the reviews and discussions described above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the audited

financial statements be included in Ralliant’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

cast will be elected, except in a contested election (as described in Ralliant’s Bylaws) where director nominees are elected by a

resignations by directors for whom the number of votes cast “For” does not exceed the number of votes cast “Against” in an

uncontested election, which is described in Ralliant’s Bylaws and Corporate Governance Guidelines. All other matters are

approved if supported by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the total number of votes of common stock

represented at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon.

VOTING AND MEETING INFORMATION

How Do I Vote My Shares if My Shares are Held by a Broker, Bank, or Other Nominee?

For those stockholders whose shares are held by a broker, bank, or other nominee, you must complete and return the voting

instruction form provided by your broker, bank, or nominee in order to instruct your broker, bank, or nominee on how to vote.

Unless you provide voting instructions, your shares may not be voted on any matter except for the ratification of the

appointment of our independent auditors. To ensure that your shares are voted in the other proposals to come before the

Annual Meeting, we encourage you to provide instructions to your broker, bank, or other nominee on how to vote your shares.

Please refer to information from your bank, broker, or other nominee on how to submit voting instructions.

available when you access the Annual Meeting.

Which Shares can be Voted with the Proxy Form?

If you are a stockholder of record, you will receive only one Notice or proxy form for all the shares of common stock you hold.

Please vote proxies for all accounts to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

What is Notice and Access?

The SEC’s notice and access rule allows companies to deliver a Notice to stockholders in lieu of a paper copy of the proxy

materials. The Notice provides instructions as to how stockholders can access the 2026 Proxy Statement and the 2025 Annual

Report to Stockholders online, contains a listing of matters to be considered at the Annual Meeting, and sets forth instructions

as to how shares can be voted. Instructions for requesting paper copies of the proxy materials are set forth on the Notice.

Shares must be voted by internet, by phone, online at the Annual Meeting, or by completing and returning a proxy form.

Shares cannot be voted by marking, writing on, and/or returning the Notice. Any Notices that are returned will not be counted

as votes.

What if I am a Stockholder of Record and Do Not Specify a Voting Choice for a Matter when Returning a Proxy Form?

Stockholders should specify their voting choice for each matter on the proxy form. If no specific instructions are given, proxies

that are signed and returned will be voted in accordance with the Board’s recommendations.

Can I Change my Vote?

If you are a stockholder of record, you may change your vote by voting again over the internet or telephone, participating in the

Annual Meeting and electronically voting your shares during the meeting, submitting a later-dated proxy, or by sending in a later

vote to Vote Processing, c/o Broadridge, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York 11717. You may revoke your proxy by

providing written notice prior to the Annual Meeting to Ralliant Corporation, Attention: Chief Legal and Government Affairs

Officer and Corporate Secretary at 4114 Center at North Hills Street, Suite 400, Raleigh, North Carolina 27609 . If your Ralliant

shares are held for you in a brokerage, bank, or other nominee, you may change your vote by submitting new voting

instructions to your broker, bank, or other nominee.

What are Broker Non-Votes?

Broker non-votes occur on a matter up for vote when a broker, bank, or other nominee holder of shares you own in

“street name” is not permitted to vote on that particular matter without instructions from you, you do not give instructions, and

the broker, bank, or other nominee indicates on its proxy form, or otherwise notifies us, that it does not have authority to vote its

shares on that matter.

respect to shares of common stock attributable to your Savings Plan account as of the record date. Fidelity will vote your

Savings Plan shares as of the record date in the manner directed by you. If Fidelity does not receive voting instructions from

you by 11:59 p.m. ET on June 2, 2026, shares allocable to your Savings Plan account will be voted in proportion to directions

78

Appendix - Non-GAAP Financial

Measures

This Proxy Statement includes a reconciliation of certain non-GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable

financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP below. Management believes that each of the non-GAAP financial

measures described below provides useful information to investors by reflecting additional ways of viewing aspects of the

operations of the Company that when reconciled to the corresponding most directly comparable GAAP measure help its

investors to understand the long-term profitability trends of its business, and facilitate comparisons of its operational

performance and profitability to prior and future periods and to its peers.

These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a replacement for or superior to, the comparable

GAAP measures, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Ralliant does not provide a reconciliation for non-GAAP estimates for free cash flow conversion on a forward-looking basis

because the information necessary to calculate a meaningful or accurate estimation of reconciling items is not available without

unreasonable effort. For example, such reconciling items include the impact of foreign currency exchange gains or losses,

gains or losses that are unusual or nonrecurring in nature, as well as discrete taxable events. These items are uncertain,

depend on various factors and may have a substantial and unpredictable impact on the Company’s GAAP results.

Adjusted net earnings and adjusted diluted EPS

Ralliant discloses the non-GAAP measures of historical adjusted net earnings and historical adjusted diluted EPS, which to the

extent applicable, make the following adjustments to the most directly comparable GAAP measures:

• Excluding on a pretax basis goodwill impairment;

• Excluding on a pretax basis amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets;

• Excluding on a pretax basis acquisition and divestiture-related adjustments and costs;

• Excluding on a pretax basis the costs incurred pursuant to discrete restructuring plans that are fundamentally different from

ongoing productivity improvements in terms of the size, strategic nature, planning requirements and the inconsistent

frequency of such plans as well as the associated macroeconomic drivers which underlie such plans (the “discrete

restructuring charges”);

• Excluding on a pretax basis Fortive corporate allocations in the second quarter of 2025;

• Excluding on a pretax basis stock-based compensation modification in the third quarter of 2025; and

• Excluding on a pretax basis Separation costs.

In addition, with respect to the non-GAAP measures of historical adjusted net earnings and historical adjusted diluted net

earnings per share, Ralliant makes the following adjustments to GAAP net earnings and GAAP diluted net EPS:

• Excluding the tax effect (to the extent tax deductible) of the pretax adjustments noted above. The tax effect of such

adjustments was calculated by applying the overall estimated effective tax rate to the pretax amount of each adjustment

(unless the nature of the item and/or the tax jurisdiction in which the item has been recorded requires application of a specific

tax rate or tax treatment, in which case the tax effect of such item is estimated by applying such specific tax rate or tax

treatment). The Company expects to apply the overall estimated effective tax rate to each adjustment going forward; and

• Excluding the discrete tax adjustment related to the impact of the repricing of deferred tax balances due to an enacted

reduction in the German corporate tax rate as well as the discrete tax adjustment related to the goodwill impairment impact

on the associated deferred tax balances. These items are considered to be one time in nature and therefore considered to

be non-GAAP adjustments in 2025.

Goodwill Impairment

In the fourth quarter of 2025, in connection with its annual impairment testing, the Company recorded an impairment charge to

the Test & Measurement reporting unit goodwill of $1.4 billion primarily driven by revised expectations for the EA Elektro-

Automatik business, reflecting slower‑than‑anticipated progression and recent reduction in industry forecasts of future EV

adoption. The non-cash impairment charge is excluded from adjusted results as management believes the adjusted measure

provides useful insight to investors for evaluating the ongoing operations of the business .

2026 Proxy Statement 79

APPENDIX - NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Amortization of Acquisition-Related Intangible Assets

As a result of Ralliant’s acquisition activity, there was significant amortization expense associated with definite-lived intangible

assets. The Company excludes the amortization expense of acquisition-related intangible assets incurred in each period, and

impairment charges incurred, if any. Management believes that this adjustment provides investors with additional insight into

the Company’s operational performance and profitability as such impacts are not related to its organic business performance.

Acquisition and Divestiture-Related Adjustments and Costs

While Ralliant has a history of acquisition and divestiture activity, the Company does not acquire and divest businesses or

assets on a predictable cycle. The amount of an acquisition’s purchase price allocated to inventory fair value adjustments are

unique to each acquisition and can vary significantly from acquisition to acquisition. In addition, transaction costs, which include

acquisition, divestiture, integration, and restructuring costs related to completed or announced transactions, and the non-

recurring gains on divestitures of businesses or assets are unique to each transaction and are impacted from period to period

depending on the number of acquisitions or divestitures evaluated, pending, or completed during such period, and the

complexity of such transactions. The Company adjusts for transaction costs, acquisition related fair value adjustments to

inventory, integration costs, and corresponding restructuring charges related to acquisitions, in each case, incurred in a given

period.

Discrete Restructuring Charges

Ralliant excludes costs incurred pursuant to discrete restructuring plans that are fundamentally different in terms of the size,

strategic nature and planning requirements, as well as the inconsistent frequency, of such plans originating from significant

macroeconomic trends or material disruptions to operations, economy, or capital markets from the ongoing productivity

improvements that result from application of the Ralliant Business System or from execution of general cost saving strategies.

Because these restructuring plans will be incremental to the fundamental activities that arise in the ordinary course of business

and management believes are not indicative of ongoing operating costs in a given period, the Company excludes these costs to

facilitate a more consistent comparison of operating results over time. Restructuring costs related primarily to an acquisition are

not included in this adjustment but are instead included in acquisition and divestiture related items.

Fortive Corporate Allocations

Prior to the Separation from Fortive, Ralliant was allocated corporate costs to each of its segments as part of Fortive’s

corporate cost allocation process. During the second quarter, Ralliant incurred incremental costs with the establishment of a

separate corporate function, primarily related to employee compensation and IT system costs, as well as incremental

standalone public company costs such as corporate governance costs, including audit and other professional services fees,

consulting and legal fees, and stock exchange listing fees. The Ralliant corporate costs are primarily allocated to each of its

segments, while the incremental standalone public company costs are reported as unallocated corporate costs. The Fortive

corporate cost allocations are duplicative with the Ralliant corporate costs allocated to its segments and were therefore

considered to be a non-GAAP adjustment in the second quarter of 2025.

Stock-Based Compensation Modification

In connection with the Separation from Fortive, Ralliant established the Stock Plan. The outstanding equity awards of Fortive

held by Ralliant employees were replaced with awards of Ralliant common stock under the Stock Plan using a conversion

factor using Fortive’s pre-spin close price and Ralliant’s three-day volume-weighted average price as of July 2, 2025. The three-

day volume-weighted average price was used to maintain the economic value before and after the Separation date using the

ratio of the Ralliant common stock fair market value relative to the Fortive common stock fair market value prior to the

Separation. The one-time incremental stock-based compensation expense recorded as a result of this equity award conversion

was therefore considered to be a non-GAAP adjustment in the third quarter of 2025.

Separation Costs

Ralliant became a standalone public company in the third quarter and incurred incremental recurring and non-recurring charges

as a result of the Separation from Fortive. The Company performed an analysis to determine the split between recurring and

non-recurring and has only recorded the non-recurring charges as a non-GAAP adjustment in the third quarter. These charges

included equity plan payments due to the dissolution of such plans as a result of the Separation, retention bonuses to certain

employees, disentanglement expenses resulting from the Separation, and certain audit, tax, and legal services.

APPENDIX - NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Conversion

Ralliant uses the term “free cash flow” when referring to net cash provided by operating activities calculated according to GAAP

less payments for capital expenditures. Ralliant uses the term “free cash flow conversion” when referring to free cash flow

divided by adjusted net earnings.

Management believes that such non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors in assessing the Company’s

ability to generate cash without external financing, fund acquisitions and other investments and, in the absence of refinancing,

repay its debt obligations. However, it should be noted that free cash flow and free cash flow conversion as liquidity measures

have material limitations because they exclude certain expenditures that are required or that the Company has committed to,

such as debt service requirements and other non-discretionary expenditures. Such non-GAAP measures should be considered

in addition to, and not as a replacement for or superior to, the most directly comparable GAAP measures, and may not be

comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
