The primary engine behind the outperformance was the Industrial & Energy Technology segment, where revenue climbed 21% year-over-year to $3.49 billion, powered by a 28% surge in Gas Technology revenue as the company executed on a robust LNG project backlog, including major awards from Venture Global and Woodside Energy. IET's operating income jumped 42% to $584 million, with margins expanding 2.4 percentage points to 16.7%. The quarter also highlighted a broader LNG demand tailwind, with new export projects advancing globally. Looking ahead, CEO Lorenzo Simonelli signaled confidence in another year of EBITDA growth in 2025 led by IET, while the company reinforced that conviction with a 10% dividend increase to $0.23 per share quarterly.

Key Takeaways

  • Strong LNG equipment orders and revenue growth driving IET segment up 21% YoY
  • Higher pricing and structural cost-out initiatives improving margins in both segments
  • Gas Technology Equipment revenue up 38% year-over-year
  • OFSE EBITDA margin expansion to 19.5%, approaching 20% target
  • Subsea & Surface Pressure Systems revenue up 23% year-over-year

We closed out the year with exceptional fourth-quarter results, setting new quarterly and annual records for revenue, free cash flow and our adjusted measures of EPS, EBITDA, and EBITDA margin. Our strategy to drive profitable growth and continuous margin improvement is working. Looking forward, we will continue our journey to transform the Company, and we expect 2025 to demonstrate another strong year of EBITDA growth, led by our IET segment.”
