The following is an excerpt of the Rexnord Corporation (the “Company”) press release, dated as of July 21, 2021:

“With PMC’s strong performance in the first half of 2021 and an improved outlook for the second half of the year, we now believe PMC will deliver over $300 million of EBITDA in 2021, which is considerably ahead of the expectations we had at the beginning of the year, and should only strengthen the value creation opportunity of the combined business."

Additionally, the following is an excerpt from a transcript of the Company’s conference call held on July 21, 2021:

“At this point, we expect PMC EBITDA for 2021 to exceed $300 million, up considerably from the announcement of the transaction with Regal, which puts the combined business and $120 million of announced synergies ahead of where we were all expecting at the time of the announcement as we get into the 2022 run rate.”
