Ingersoll Rand Inc.: 10-K Risk Factor Changes

We have begun incorporating AI into our business activities and our product and service offerings. As with many innovations, AI presents risks and challenges that could adversely impact our business. The development, adoption and use of AI technologies are still in their early stages, and ineffective or inadequate AI development, deployment or governance practices could result in unintended consequences. For example, AI algorithms may be flawed or may be based on biased or insufficient datasets, and any disruption or failure in the AI functionality we incorporate into our business activities, products or services could adversely impact our business or result in delays or errors in our offerings. In addition, the successful development and deployment of AI in our business depends on our ability to timely and effectively upskill our existing workforce and attract and retain personnel with AI‑related skills and experience. Competition for AI‑native talent is intense, and if we are unable to develop or recruit the necessary capabilities, we may be unable to fully realize potential efficiency gains, innovation opportunities or competitive advantages from AI, or to respond effectively to AI‑enabled competitive, technological or regulatory developments. 13 13 13 13 13 13 Table of Content Table of Content Table of Content Conversely, any failure to successfully develop and deploy AI in our business activities, products and services could adversely affect our competitiveness, particularly if our competitors successfully deploy AI, and the development and deployment of AI will require additional investment and increase our costs. There also may be real or perceived social harm, unfairness or other outcomes that undermine public confidence in the use and deployment of AI. Any of the foregoing may result in decreased demand for our products or harm to our business, financial condition or reputation. The legal and regulatory landscape surrounding AI technologies is rapidly evolving and uncertain, including in the areas of intellectual property, cybersecurity and privacy and data protection. Compliance with new or changing laws, regulations or industry standards relating to AI or failure to implement robust governance frameworks to address ethical considerations, such as fairness, transparency, and bias, may impose significant costs and may limit our ability to develop, deploy or use AI technologies. Failure to appropriately respond to this evolving landscape may result in legal liability, regulatory action, or brand and reputational harm.

Our financial performance depends, in large part, on conditions in the markets we serve and on the general condition of the global economy, which impacts these markets. Any sustained weakness in demand for our products and services resulting from a contraction or uncertainty in the global economy could adversely impact our revenues and profitability. In addition, we believe that many of our suppliers and customers access global credit markets to provide liquidity, and in some cases, utilize external financing to purchase products or finance operations. If our customers are unable to access credit markets or lack liquidity, customer demand for our products and services may be impacted. Furthermore, our products are sold in many industries, some of which are cyclical and may experience periodic contractions. Cyclical weakness in the industries that we serve could adversely affect demand for our products and affect our profitability and financial performance.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was signed into law by the president of the United States. It includes a broad range of tax reform provisions affecting businesses, including extending and modifying certain key provisions (both U.S. and non-U.S.) of the Tax Cuts & Jobs Act of 2017, and expanding certain Inflation Reduction Act incentives while accelerating the phase-out of others. The impact of the OBBBA is currently reflected on our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2025 and we are continuing to assess the impact for future years. The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) has a framework to implement a global minimum corporate tax of 15% for companies with global revenues and profits above certain thresholds (referred to as “Pillar 2”), with certain aspects of Pillar 2 effective January 1, 2024 and other aspects effective January 1, 2025. While it is uncertain whether the U.S. will enact legislation to adopt Pillar 2, certain countries in which we operate have adopted legislation, and other countries are in the process of introducing legislation to implement Pillar 2. We will continue to closely monitor developments in Pillar 2 tax legislation, as the final rules could materially affect our effective tax rate and cash tax obligations. While we monitor proposals and other developments that would materially impact our tax burden and/or effective tax rate and investigate our options, we could still be subject to increased taxation on a going forward basis no matter what action we undertake if certain legislative proposals or regulatory changes are enacted, certain tax treaties are amended and/or our interpretation of applicable tax or other laws is challenged and determined to be incorrect. The inability to realize any anticipated tax benefits related to our operations and corporate structure could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. See Note 1 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” and Note 16 “Income Taxes” to our audited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-K for additional information related to our accounting for income tax matters. Further, the specific future impacts of OBBBA and Pillar 2 on holders of our common shares are uncertain and could in certain instances be adverse. We urge our stockholders to consult with their legal and tax advisors with respect to any such legislation and the potential tax consequences of investing in our common stock. We are also subject to the examination of our tax returns and other tax matters by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and other tax authorities and governmental bodies. We regularly assess the likelihood of an adverse outcome resulting from these examinations to determine the adequacy of its provision for taxes. The outcome of such examinations is inherently uncertain. If our effective tax rates were to increase, or if the ultimate determination of our taxes owed is for an amount in excess of amounts 14 14 14 14 14 14 Table of Content Table of Content Table of Content previously accrued, our business, results of operations, financial condition and stock price could be materially adversely affected.

In 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“Tax Act”). The Tax Act makes broad and complex changes to the U.S. tax code that affected 2017 and 2018, including, but not limited to (1) requiring a one-time transition tax on certain unrepatriated earnings of foreign subsidiaries that is payable over eight years and (2) bonus depreciation that will allow for full expensing of qualified property. The Tax Act also established new tax laws that significantly affected recent and future tax years. The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) has a framework to implement a global minimum corporate tax of 15% for companies with global revenues and profits above certain thresholds (referred to as Pillar 2), with certain aspects of Pillar 2 effective January 1, 2024 and other aspects effective January 1, 2025. While it is uncertain whether the U.S. will enact legislation to adopt Pillar 2, certain countries in which we operate have adopted legislation, and other countries are in the process of introducing legislation to implement Pillar 2. We do not expect Pillar 2 to have a material impact but we continue to monitor the tax law changes surrounding Pillar 2. 14 14 14 14 14 14 Table of Contents Table of Contents Table of Contents While we monitor proposals and other developments that would materially impact our tax burden and/or effective tax rate and investigate our options, we could still be subject to increased taxation on a going forward basis no matter what action we undertake if certain legislative proposals or regulatory changes are enacted, certain tax treaties are amended and/or our interpretation of applicable tax or other laws is challenged and determined to be incorrect.

We have access to capital through our Revolving Credit Facility. Each financial institution which is part of the syndicate for our Revolving Credit Facility is responsible on a several, but not joint, basis for providing a portion of the loans to be made under our facility. If any participant or group of participants with a significant portion of the commitments in our Revolving Credit Facility fails to satisfy its or their respective obligations to extend credit under the facility and we are unable to find a replacement for such participant or participants on a timely basis (if at all), our liquidity may be adversely affected.

We have access to capital through our New Revolving Credit Facility. Each financial institution which is part of the syndicate for our New Revolving Credit Facility is responsible on a several, but not joint, basis for providing a portion of the loans to be made under our facility.
