Description: DCI Donaldson January 06, 2026

Donaldson Company Inc. (NYSE: DCI) designs, manufactures, and distributes filtration systems and replacement parts across three operating segments: Mobile Solutions, Industrial Solutions, and Life Sciences. The Mobile Solutions segment supplies air- and liquid-filtration components-such as fuel, lube, hydraulic, and emissions filters-to OEMs in construction, mining, agriculture, and transportation, as well as to independent distributors and dealer networks. The Industrial Solutions segment covers dust, fume, and mist collectors; compressed-air and gas-purification units; power-generation inlet systems; and aerospace/defense filtration for aircraft, ground-vehicle, and naval platforms. The Life Sciences segment provides micro-environment gas and liquid filtration for food-beverage, bioprocessing (bioreactors, fermenters, chromatography consumables), and high-purity applications in semiconductors, hard-disk drives, battery systems, and powertrain components.

Key performance indicators from the most recent fiscal year (2023) show total revenue of roughly $2.5 billion, an operating margin of ≈ 12 %, and a backlog of about $1.1 billion, indicating solid demand visibility. The company’s growth is tied to macro-drivers such as the global shift toward electric vehicles (which raises demand for high-efficiency coolant and battery filtration), expanding renewable-energy generation (requiring robust air-inlet and gas-purification for turbines), and continued expansion of biopharma manufacturing capacity, which fuels the Life Sciences segment.

Analysts should watch the OEM cycle in the construction and mining sectors-where a slowdown could compress Mobile Solutions sales-and monitor the pace of EV adoption, as higher-volume battery packs increase the need for specialized filtration. Additionally, the aerospace-defense market’s fiscal-year spending trends can materially affect the Industrial Solutions segment’s top line.
