Artisan Partners made the following comment about Ingersoll Rand Inc. (NYSE:IR) in its Q4 2022 investor letter:
“Ingersoll Rand Inc. (NYSE:IR) is a global market leader in a broad range of mission-critical flow creation technologies (pumps, compressors, etc.) for industrial and medical applications. Recent earnings results beat expectations and revealed record orders and revenues. Management also raised its full-year guidance for 2022, sending shares higher. Notably, orders within its largest segment were up 16% organically, driven by strong growth in compressors vacuums and blowers. We are cognizant of cyclical industrial risks in the quarters ahead but think Ingersoll’s compressed air technologies will remain in demand as customers seek to operate using less energy and water, while generating fewer emissions. We also continue to be impressed by management’s internal execution in areas such as acquisition integration, marketing lead generation, new product development and employee engagement.”
