Description: ROK Rockwell Automation December 04, 2025

Rockwell Automation (NYSE: ROK) is a global provider of industrial automation and digital-transformation solutions, operating across North America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia-Pacific and Latin America. The firm is organized into three reporting segments-Intelligent Devices, Software & Control, and Lifecycle Services-through which it sells a mix of hardware (drives, motion, safety and sensing devices), software (control, visualization, digital-twin and analytics platforms) and engineered-to-order systems.

The company’s end-market exposure spans discrete manufacturers (automotive, semiconductor, e-commerce and warehouse automation), hybrid processors (food & beverage, life sciences, tire) and process-intensive industries (energy, mining, chemicals). Sales are primarily channeled through a network of independent distributors complemented by a direct sales force, and the firm also monetizes recurring revenue streams from digital consulting, cybersecurity, remote monitoring and asset-optimization services.

In FY 2023 Rockwell reported revenue of roughly $8 billion, with an operating margin of about 18 % and a 12 % year-over-year increase in its digital-services revenue, reflecting broader macro-drivers such as rising capital-expenditure cycles in advanced manufacturing and the acceleration of Industry 4.0 initiatives. The firm’s performance is sensitive to global industrial-capex trends, semiconductor supply-chain dynamics, and the pace of AI-driven automation adoption across its core markets.
