The increase was primarily driven by growth across most end-market sectors led by industrial distribution and off-highway, and the impact of higher pricing, partially offset by unfavorable currency.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><br/></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Timken posted net income in the first quarter of $118.2 million or a record $1.56 per diluted share. This compares to net income of $113.3 million or $1.47 per diluted share for the same period a year ago. The increase in GAAP net income was primarily driven by the impact of higher volume and favorable price/mix, partially offset by higher operating costs and the net unfavorable impact of special items (detailed in the attached tables), as compared to the year-ago period.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><br/></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Excluding special items, adjusted net income in the first quarter was $121.7 million or $1.61 per diluted share, a record for any quarter.

The company ended the first quarter with net debt to adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) at 1.8 times. Also, among recent developments, the company announced an agreement to acquire Spinea, a technology leader and manufacturer of highly engineered cycloidal reduction gears and actuators, which strengthens Timken's position in the high-growth robotics and automation space.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><br/></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">"We had an excellent start to the year, reporting record revenue and earnings with strong margin performance," said Richard G. Kyle, Timken president and chief executive officer. "Our first-quarter results reflect higher customer demand for our differentiated products along with the benefit of recent pricing actions. In addition, our team delivered better operating performance in the quarter, as we improved execution and customer service despite continued challenges across our global supply chain. Our performance demonstrates the resiliency of the company and builds on our track record of delivering strong financial results through industrial cycles and dynamic market conditions."</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><br/></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">First-Quarter 2022 Segment Results</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Process Industries sales of $584.2 million increased 12.2 percent from the same period a year ago. The increase was driven primarily by growth across most sectors led by distribution and general industrial, and the impact of higher pricing, partially offset by lower revenue in the renewable energy sector and unfavorable currency.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><br/></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">EBITDA for the quarter was $155.6 million or 26.6 percent of sales, compared with EBITDA of $131 million or 25.1 percent of sales for the same period a year ago. The increase in EBITDA was driven primarily by the favorable impact of higher volume and price/mix, partially offset by higher operating costs.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><br/></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Excluding special items (detailed in the attached tables), adjusted EBITDA in the quarter was $158.1 million or 27.1 percent of sales, compared with $135.7 million or 26.0 percent of sales in the first quarter last year.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><br/></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Mobile Industries sales of $540.4 million increased 7.1 percent compared with the same period a year ago. The increase was driven primarily by higher shipments in the off-highway and rail sectors, and the impact of higher pricing, partially offset by unfavorable currency.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><br/></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">EBITDA for the quarter was $75.1 million or 13.9 percent of sales, compared with EBITDA of $79.6 million or 15.8 percent of sales for the same period a year ago. The decline in EBITDA reflects the impact of significantly higher operating costs and Russia-related charges (described in the attached tables), partially offset by positive price/mix and the favorable impact of higher volume.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><br/></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Excluding special items (detailed in the attached tables), adjusted EBITDA in the quarter was $79.2 million or 14.7 percent of sales, compared with $80.1 million or 15.9 percent of sales in the first quarter last year.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><br/></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">2022 Outlook</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Timken is maintaining its 2022 earnings outlook, with full-year earnings per diluted share in the range of $4.85 to $5.25 on a GAAP basis and adjusted earnings per diluted share in the range of $5.00 to $5.40. The company has modestly adjusted its revenue outlook and now anticipates 2022 revenue to be up approximately 8 percent at the midpoint in total versus 2021, which reflects the impact from suspending operations in Russia as well as an updated estimate for unfavorable currency translation.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><br/></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">"We expect to deliver strong performance with double-digit earnings growth in 2022 driven by robust demand for our products, improved operational execution and price realization," said Kyle.

And we expect to deliver another record year while further increasing our industrial leadership position by advancing our strategic growth and capital allocation initiatives."</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><br/></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Conference Call Information</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Timken will host a conference call today at 10 a.m. Eastern Time to review its financial results.
