Global Industrial
The Global Industrial segment exhibited a steady upward trend in revenue from 2017 to 2021, increasing from approximately $4.88 billion to $6.30 billion. This represents consistent growth each year, indicating a robust performance in this segment over the five-year period.
Global Institutional & Specialty
This segment demonstrated growth from 2017 through 2019, with revenues rising from about $4.74 billion to $5.24 billion. However, a significant decline occurred in 2020, dropping to approximately $3.58 billion, followed by a modest recovery in 2021 to around $3.98 billion. The sharp decrease in 2020 suggests challenges possibly linked to external factors impacting sales.
Global Healthcare & Life Sciences
This segment lacks data for the years prior to 2020 but shows stable, albeit modest, revenue growth between 2020 and 2021, moving from roughly $1.19 billion to $1.20 billion. The introduction of this segment's data in 2020 may indicate a new reporting category or business focus commencing at that time.
Global Energy
The Global Energy segment saw an increase in revenue from about $3.20 billion in 2017 to $3.50 billion in 2018, followed by a slight decline to approximately $3.33 billion in 2019. There is no data available for 2020 and 2021, preventing further trend analysis for this period.
Other
The Other category showed consistent revenue growth across all reported years, increasing steadily from about $823.5 million in 2017 to approximately $1.23 billion in 2021. This indicates an expanding contribution from other business activities or segments outside the main categories.
Corporate
Corporate revenue data is only available for 2020 and 2021, with reported figures increasing from $102.4 million to $139.4 million. The limited data restricts comprehensive trend analysis, but the increase suggests a growing impact of corporate-level revenue or adjustments.
Net Sales at Fixed Currency
Net sales at fixed currency showed growth from 2017 to 2019, reaching approximately $15.05 billion. However, a notable decline occurred in 2020 to about $11.92 billion, followed by a partial recovery in 2021 to roughly $12.84 billion. This pattern reflects an overall increase over the first three years, disrupted by a downturn in 2020 likely linked to external economic or market conditions.
Effect of Foreign Currency Translation
Foreign currency translation effects varied over the years, with a positive impact in 2017 (+$192.1 million) and negative impacts in the subsequent years, reaching -$111.7 million in 2021. This trend indicates that currency fluctuations generally had an adverse influence on reported net sales in most years after 2017.
Net Sales
Reported net sales followed a similar trajectory to net sales at fixed currency, with increases from approximately $13.84 billion in 2017 to about $14.91 billion in 2019, followed by a sharp decrease to approximately $11.79 billion in 2020 and a recovery to roughly $12.73 billion in 2021. The net sales figures, affected by foreign currency translation, confirm the declining trend in 2020 and partial rebound in 2021.
