We demonstrated the strength and breadth of our end markets and product offerings, along with the resilience of our customer relationships and recurring revenue base. And with Elevate 2.0, we have clarity on the path ahead. Like most manufacturing companies, our 2021 results were impacted by the effects of the pandemic, persistent global supply chain issues, inﬂation and constrained labor availability. At the same time, at FoodTech, customer demand for our products and solutions was robust throughout the year. We saw increased market penetration thanks in large part to the breadth of our participation across food end markets, a solid product portfolio that supports the need for labor-saving automation, and successful new product introductions. AeroTech was impacted even more by inﬂation and supply chain challenges against a backdrop of improving orders and backlog— a frustrating juxtaposition of negatives and positives that adds up to overall disappointment in 2021 versus expectations, but with strong optimism for the future. 104610_JBT AR Body.a1.indd 1 3/11/22 9:14 AM JBT / 2021 Annual Report 20 2 1 F I N A N C I A L H I G H L I G H T S BRIAN DECK President and Chief Executive Officer Resilient Recurring Revenue Streams Free Cash Flow* 45% of Total Revenue, 2021 P E R F O R M A N C E S I N C E 2 0 1 5 Strong Revenue Growth 9% CAGR, 2015-2021 2 $190M 161% of Net Income, 2021 Building JBT Through M&A 17 Acquisitions 2015–2021 Efficiency and Margin Improvement 275 BASIS POINTS In Adjusted EBITDA* Margin Improvement, 2015–2021 104610_JBT AR Body.a1.indd 2 3/11/22 9:14 AM JBT / 2021 Annual Report L E T T E R T O SH A R E H O L D E R S 2021 FINANCIAL RESULTS Overall, JBT 2021 revenue increased 8% while EPS and adjusted EPS* increased 9% and 2%, respectively. Our recurring revenue remained strong, representing 45% of our total revenue, a continued indication of the resilience of our customer relationships. to keep our customers’ equipment up and running efﬁciently and proﬁtably. We can help lower the impact of continued labor constraints through automation and other JBT technology. Furthermore, with more customers than ever committing to reducing their environmental impact, JBT solutions can contribute signiﬁcantly to their sustainability efforts. In 2021, FoodTech represented 75% of our sales and 87% of our segment adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (adjusted EBITDA) * compared with more than 70% and 80% respectively in 2020. Full-year 2021 adjusted EBITDA margin was 18.4%, down versus 19.1% in 2020, with revenue up 13%, resulting in adjusted EBITDA up 9%. FoodTech’s order trends were outstanding all year, reﬂecting our commercial success in the marketplace. Orders in 2021 increased by 29% versus 2020, and we entered 2022 with a record backlog. FoodTech margin missed the mark considering the underlying commercial strength, as inﬂation, supply chain and labor cost challenges were not fully recaptured. All in all, it was a successful year for FoodTech— we are pleased with the pace of our recovery and results in this challenging operating environment. AeroTech experienced a signiﬁcantly more difﬁcult operating environment than FoodTech, and its ﬁnancial results reﬂected it. AeroTech’s 2021 revenue decreased by 5% year over year and adjusted EBITDA of $37 million (7.9% of revenue) was a notable drop from the $60 million recorded in 2020 as the supply chain, inﬂation and labor challenges were not as easily navigated given the longer-term nature of its customer pricing commitments. However, AeroTech is beneﬁting from the recovery in the commercial airline industry along with continued strength in the cargo and infrastructure markets, as evidenced by a 16% increase in orders year over year and a near record backlog entering 2022. We expect further improvement in AeroTech ﬁnancial results in 2022 as it executes in this improved commercial environment. Our cash ﬂow and balance sheet continued to be bright spots. In 2021, we generated $190 million in free cash ﬂow, which we deployed both to reduce debt and complete three acquisitions. We added Autocoding Systems, Prevenio and Urtasun in 2021, strengthening our capabilities and growth potential in end-of-line packaging software, food safety, and fresh fruits and vegetables processing. A VALUABLE CUSTOMER PARTNER The challenging environment that affected our performance also affected our customers. If there ever was a time to step up our efforts to become an even more valuable partner, it is now. We have a growing array of products and solutions designed ELEVATE 2.0: DIGITALLY ENABLED GROWTH Our strategy to drive the next phase of growth is focused on transforming JBT from an equipment and parts supplier to the preferred digitally enabled solutions partner for our customers. We are accelerating this shift to a model built on relationships that deliver incremental customer value while capturing more recurring revenue throughout the product lifecycle. We are supporting our digital strategy with meaningful investments in 2022, with recovery of these investments expected to begin in 2023 as we build out our ecosystem and increase customer adoption. By designing our equipment and systems to be smarter and connecting them digitally, we can better support real-time machine monitoring for preventive maintenance, improved food yield, safety and quality, and more efﬁcient use of water and energy—all while creating an easier, more seamless customer experience. This will be our focus over the next several years and beyond. We are executing the digital element of Elevate 2.0 across four priority areas: • Frictionless Parts and Service — New JBT digital tools enable customers to diagnose equipment, order parts and schedule service seamlessly and electronically. • Machine Health/Machine Vision — Dashboards aggregate AI-enabled sensor data to monitor machine health in real time while machine vision algorithms identify issues, anticipate failures, and recommend remedial, predictive or preventative action. • Overall Equipment Efficiency (OEE) — Sensors connect machines digitally for full-line monitoring and identiﬁcation of anomalies and potential problems, enabling real-time adjustments with JBT machines designed to respond automatically to upstream/downstream changes to optimize uptime and yield. • Byproducts and Sustainability — Digital analytics uncover new opportunities to reduce water, energy, oil and plastics consumption, as well as identify process outputs/byproducts that can be repurposed or sold to eliminate landﬁll waste and create new revenue streams. * This is a non-GAAP financial measure. For an explanation of this measure, and a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, please see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. 104610_JBT AR Body.a1.indd 3 3 3/11/22 9:14 AM JBT / 2021 Annual Report L E T T E R T O SH A R E H O L D E R S 2021 ACQUISITIONS Bolstering and expanding our capabilities through acquisition AUTOCODING SYSTEMS, LTD March 2021 c Software solutions for the automated set-up and control of end-of-line packaging devices c Extends JBT’s capabilities in packaging line equipment PREVENIO July 2021 c Highly effective pathogen protection through unique anti-microbial delivery solutions c Enhances JBT’s recurring revenue portfolio and furthers our investment in solutions that support our customers’ daily needs URTASUN TECNOLOGIA ALIMENTARIA S.L. November 2021 c Fruit and vegetable processing solutions focused on fresh packaged and frozen markets c Expands JBT’s product offering in the fruit and vegetable processing space SUPPORTING A MORE SUSTAINABLE WORLD JBT’s purpose is to help the world make better use of the world’s precious resources. Within our own operations we exceeded our 10-year energy intensity reduction goal of 25%, a year ahead of schedule in 2020, but we believe we will continue to make a far greater impact through solutions that contribute to customer sustainability. The inherent beneﬁts of JBT’s technology in FoodTech include a reduction of food and packaging waste, lower water and energy consumption, along with improved food and people safety. We also help our customers as they develop new sustainable food offerings such as plant-based proteins and beverages. For AeroTech, the progression of the electriﬁcation of our airport ground support equipment is giving our customers the ability to move away from diesel vehicles and lower their carbon footprint at airports. We see our Elevate 2.0 growth strategy as an exciting opportunity to build upon those beneﬁts for an even greater impact. PEOPLE: THE REAL DRIVERS OF GROWTH AND VALUE We have never been more aware of the importance of our people in achieving our goals as a company. Over the past few years, we have increased our efforts to make JBT a great place to work, including, as part of our core values, the furtherment of our diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) culture as described later in this report. CONFIDENCE AS WE LOOK AHEAD Over the past decade, we have methodically built a JBT that has deep and broad presence across the highest-value segments of the food production supply chain and end-user markets. We are technology leaders in the industries we serve, and our strong installed base provides recurring revenue that has proven its resilience across economic cycles. These strengths form an excellent foundation for future success. AeroTech has been challenged by a difﬁcult operating environment over the past two years, but its order book and backlog at year-end 2021 reached near record highs. The business has an excellent portfolio of highly relevant and competitive products and services in industries—air transportation and military—with very strong fundamentals. I believe AeroTech is clearly on the upswing. We expect 2022 to be a transition period, and 2023 to be a great year. At FoodTech, we are in a very strong position for long-term, proﬁtable growth. Whatever new challenges and opportunities arise for our customers, wherever continuously changing consumer preferences take them, JBT will be there. Sincerely, Sincerely, Brian Deck President and Chief Executive Ofﬁcer JBT Corporation 4 104610_JBT AR Body.a1.indd 4 3/11/22 9:14 AM Elevate 2.0 is our new four- year growth strategy focused on digital transformation, automation and sustainability.

Water Reuse/ Conservation Energy Use/ Emission Reduction Reduce Waste, Increase Yield/Shelf Life Food Safety In an environment of frequent droughts and water scarcity, JBT offers a variety of solutions that help customers conserve water, in some cases reducing consumption by dramatic amounts. JBT equipment is designed for maximum performance with minimum energy use, often contributing to reduced emissions. Digital solutions such as iOPS can provide critical data in real time to identify opportunities for performance improvement, including energy consumption. Precision portioning, automated packaging and high-pressure processing (HPP) are just a few of the highly sophisticated JBT technologies that increase yield, reduce waste and improve shelf life. HPP and newly acquired Prevenio’s anti-microbial delivery solution are two innovative JBT technology offerings that reduce pathogen risk without compromising taste; most JBT machines are designed to enable fast and thorough cleaning to support food safety at the equipment level. 12 104610_JBT AR Body.a1.indd 12 3/11/22 9:15 AM CUSTOMER SOLUTIONS MAGNIFY JBT IMPACT 10 tons of Plastic Saved for Every 1 million Proseal® Trays Sold 1M gallons of Water Saved per Week by Some JBT Customers 48% of Our Product Revenue is from Environmentally Beneficial Equipment Sustainable Packaging The environmental impact of packaging is an increasing concern among consumers, and food and beverage companies are listening. JBT offers many solutions such as HaloPack® 90% recycled, PE-coating-free cardboard packaging and Proseal tray sealing machinery, which are designed to reduce plastic usage and waste while providing superior product protection. Meat and Dairy Alternatives Meat and dairy alternatives are growing in popularity because of health benefits and lower environmental impact. JBT’s equipment versatility and engineering expertise are real assets for customers scaling up or retooling to meet demand. An emerging solution: cultured meat, produced using JBT equipment, offers huge environmental benefits. See the story at right. Cultured Meats: Addressing Meat Production Environmental Impact It’s widely known that livestock production is a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, water consumption and pollution, and soil erosion, representing 35–40% of all global methane emissions and 55% of U.S. water use2. One solution: cultured meat, grown from animal cells without raising livestock in a process similar to producing yogurt or beer. JBT equipment and process control technologies are currently being used in research and development—with capabilities to produce any kind of meat, poultry or seafood already proven at lower scales, this new technology holds real promise as a low-impact solution to meet global demand for animal proteins. 2 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6518108/ 104610_JBT AR Body.a1.indd 13 13 3/11/22 9:15 AM JBT / 2021 Annual Report Focusing on diversity and safety TO OPTIMIZE OUR TALENT AND ACCELER ATE INNOVATION TA K I N G A C T I O N TA K I N G A C T I O N A C R O S S A C R O S S O U R C O M PA N Y O U R C O M PA N Y C O M PA N Y C O M PA N Y C O M PA N Y C O M PA N Y C O M PA N Y C O M PA N Y E N G AG E M E N T DI V ERSI T Y TA L E N T C O M M U N I T Y SA F E T Y DIVERSITY OF THOUGHT, EXPERIENCE AND PERSPECTIVE IS A KEY DRIVER OF INNOVATION. THAT’S WHY WE ARE COMMITTED TO CREATING AN INCLUSIVE AND SUPPORTIVE WORK CULTURE WHERE ALL JBT EMPLOYEES CAN BRING THEIR WHOLE SELVES TO WORK. Engaging Our Employees Driving DEI Across Our Company Diverse Recruitment and Talent Development Community Engagement/Partnering Employee engagement is key to JBT becoming an employer of choice. In 2021, we launched our first companywide employee engagement survey, covering a wide range of topics, from culture to teamwork, well-being to empowerment and more. Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) is a high priority at JBT. DEI initiatives in 2021 included formation of a global DEI Council, the continuation of an inclusive leadership education series and the development of Employee Networking Communities. In 2021, JBT’s hiring of racial and ethnic candidates increased nearly 10% at the leadership level over the past several years. We also created the Giacomini Engineering Scholarship to provide financial assistance to diverse students pursuing engineering degrees. At JBT, we regularly look outside our walls to further our DEI impact, engaging with organizations whose missions focus on addressing inequality, improving diversity and inclusion, and serving under-resourced communities. 14 104610_JBT AR Body.a1.indd 14 3/11/22 9:15 AM Building a Values- Based Culture Culture is a unifying force in a diverse workplace. Ours is defined by shared set of values that guide behaviors critical to achieving our goals as a company. We are One JBT, united by these five values: c Integrity c Accountability c Relentless Improvement c Teamwork c Customer Focus Target Zero: Keeping Our People Safe “Zero incidents, worldwide, every day” is the stated commitment of the JBT Target Zero workplace safety program. In 2021 we began global near-miss incident reporting to help identify and correct unsafe behaviors and hazardous conditions. Our 2021 Recordable Incident Rate of 0.79 and Lost Workday Care Incident Rate of 0.23 compared well with the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) 2020 industry averages of 3.44 and 1.40 respectively. TARGET ZERO 104610_JBT AR Body.a1.indd 15 15 3/11/22 9:15 AM JBT / 2021 Annual Report Industrial equipment and processes are increasingly digital and automated. Sustainability is a strategic imperative. Consumer preferences continue to evolve. The world is evolving, and we are evolving with it. Serve our customers, serve our planet, serve our investors. These priorities are not mutually exclusive—in fact, with our Elevate 2.0 growth strategy, we will achieve all three. 16 104610_JBT AR Body.a3.indd 16 3/14/22 6:50 AM UNITED STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION Washington, D.C. 20549 FORM 10-K (Mark One) ☒ ANNUAL REPORT PURSUANT TO SECTION 13 OR 15(d) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934 For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 OR ☐ TRANSITION REPORT PURSUANT TO SECTION 13 OR 15(d) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934 Commission file number: 1-34036 John Bean Technologies Corporation (Exact name of registrant as specified in its charter) Delaware (State or other jurisdiction of incorporation or organization) 91-1650317 (I.R.S.

BUSINESS GENERAL We operate our business through two segments, JBT FoodTech and JBT AeroTech. We are a leading global technology solutions and service provider to high-value segments of the food, beverage, and aviation support industry. Through our FoodTech segment, our mission is to make better use of the world’s precious resources by providing solutions that substantially enhance our customers’ success, and in doing so design, produce and service sophisticated and critical products and systems for food and beverage companies that improve yields and boost efficiency. JBT also sells critical equipment and services to domestic and international air transportation customers through our AeroTech segment. Both segments operate globally and serve multi-national and regional markets. We were originally incorporated as Frigoscandia, Inc. in Delaware in May 1994. Our principal executive offices are located at 70 West Madison, Suite 4400, Chicago, Illinois 60602. Segment sales, operating results and additional financial data and commentary are provided in the Segment Analysis section in Part II, Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and in Note 18. of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Products and services JBT FoodTech provides comprehensive solutions throughout the food production value chain that includes: • • • Protein. Our Protein offerings include primary, secondary and further value-added processing, mixing/grinding, injecting, marinating, tumbling, portioning, packaging, coating, cooking, frying, freezing, weighing, X-ray food inspection, and food safety solutions. Diversified Food & Health. Our Diversified Food & Health offerings include processing, preserving, and packaging which support a large and growing portfolio of food and health end markets in extracting, mixing, blending, pasteurizing, sterilizing, concentrating, high pressure processing, filling, closing, sealing, and final packaging. Automated Guided Vehicle Systems. Our Automated Guided Vehicle Systems offerings include stand-alone, fully- integrated, and dual-mode robotic systems for material movement requirements with a wide variety of applications including manufacturing, warehouse, and medical facilities. JBT AeroTech markets its solutions and services to domestic and international airport authorities, passenger airlines, airfreight and ground handling companies, defense forces and defense contractors. The product offerings of our AeroTech businesses include: • Mobile Equipment. Our mobile air transportation equipment includes commercial and defense cargo loading, aircraft deicing, aircraft towing, and aircraft ground power and cooling systems. • • Fixed Equipment. We provide gate equipment for passenger boarding. Airport Services. We also maintain and enhance airport equipment, systems, and facilities. We provide aftermarket products, parts, and services for our installed base of JBT FoodTech and JBT AeroTech equipment, including retrofits and refurbishments to accommodate the changing operational requirements of our customers. We also provide continuous, proactive service to our customers including the fulfillment of preventative maintenance agreements, such as ProCare, and consulting services. As part of our aftermarket program, we offer technology for enterprise asset management and real-time operations monitoring with iOPS™. Sales and Marketing We sell and market our products and services predominantly through a direct sales force, supplemented with independent distributors, sales representatives, and technical service team. Our experienced global sales force is comprised of individuals with strong technical expertise in our products and services and the industries in which they are sold. 5 We support our sales force with marketing and training programs that are designed to increase awareness of our product offerings and highlight our differentiation while providing a set of sales tools to aid in the sales of our technology solutions. We actively employ a broad range of marketing programs to inform and educate customers, the media, industry analysts, and academia through targeted newsletters, our web-site, seminars, trade shows, user groups, and conferences. We regularly introduce new internal digital resources designed to accelerate the quote-to-order process, identify cross-selling opportunities between our separate businesses. In addition, we utilize marketing automation processes and technology to drive lead generation. Competition We conduct business worldwide and compete with large multinational companies as well as a variety of local and regional companies, which typically are focused on a specific application, technology or geographical area. We compete by leveraging our industry expertise to provide differentiated and proprietary technology, integrated systems, high product quality and reliability, and comprehensive aftermarket service. We strive to provide our customers with equipment that delivers a lower total cost of ownership, distinguishing ourselves by providing reliable uptime, labor reduction through automation, increased yields, and improved product quality, while helping customers achieve ambitious environmental goals of lowering energy and water usage, reducing food waste, and enhancing food safety. Our ability to provide comprehensive sales and service in all major regions of the world, by maintaining local personnel in region, differentiates us from regional competition. Our historically strong position in the markets we serve has provided us with a large installed base of systems and equipment. The installed base of our equipment is a source of recurring revenue from aftermarket products, parts, services, and lease arrangements. Recurring revenue accounted for 47% of our FoodTech total revenue and 38% of our AeroTech total revenue in 2021. The installed base also provides us with strong, long-term customer relationships from which we derive information for new product development to meet the evolving needs of our customers. Geographic Information We have operations strategically positioned around the world to serve the existing JBT FoodTech and JBT AeroTech equipment base located in more than 100 countries. See Item 1A. Risk Factors for a discussion of risks associated with our global operations. Customers No single customer accounted for more than 10% of our total revenue in any of the last three fiscal years. Government Contracts AeroTech supplies equipment to the U.S. Department of Defense and international forces. The amount of equipment and parts supplied to these programs is dependent upon annual government appropriations and levels of defense spending. In addition, United States defense contracts are unilaterally terminable at the option of the United States government with compensation for work completed and costs incurred. Contracts with the United States government and defense contractors are subject to special laws and regulations, the noncompliance with which may result in various sanctions that could materially affect our ongoing government business. Patents, Trademarks and Other Intellectual Property We own a number of United States and foreign patents, trademarks, and licenses that are cumulatively important to our business. We own approximately 694 United States and foreign issued patents and have approximately 338 patent applications pending in the United States and abroad. Further, we license certain intellectual property rights to or from third parties. We also own numerous United States and foreign trademarks and trade names and have approximately 960 registrations and pending applications in the United States and abroad. A substantial majority of these patents, trademarks and tradenames are associated with the FoodTech segment. Developing and maintaining a strong intellectual property portfolio is an important component of our strategy to extend our technology leadership. However, we do not believe that the loss of any one or group of related patents, trademarks, or licenses would have a material adverse effect on our overall business. Sources and Availability of Raw Materials All of our business segments purchase carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and/or steel castings and forgings both domestically and internationally. We do not use single source suppliers for the majority of our raw material purchases and believe the available supplies of raw materials are adequate to meet our needs. However, the disruptions to the global economy from impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic have impeded global supply chains resulting in longer lead times and increased raw material costs. We expect supply chain disruptions to continue into 2022, the effect of which will depend in part on our ability to successfully mitigate and offset the impact of these events. 6 Working Capital Practices In order to provide, and install, custom designed equipment, companies in the food machinery industry generally generate customer deposits, or advance payments, before construction begins. For this reason, FoodTech can be less working capital intensive than many other industrial capital goods industries. AeroTech solutions, which are more standardized, do not generate a significant amount of advance payment from the air transportation industry, and therefore work in this segment is generally more capital intensive. Human Capital Management We have employees located throughout the world. As of fiscal year end 2021, we have approximately 6,600 employees worldwide, with approximately 3,600 located in the United States. Approximately 8% of our employees in the United States are represented by three collective bargaining agreements, and less than 2% of employees in the United States are represented by agreements that will expire within a year. Outside the United States, we enter into employment contracts and agreements in those countries in which such relationships are mandatory or customary. The provisions of these agreements correspond in each case with the required or customary terms in the subject jurisdiction. Approximately 49% of our international employees are covered by global employee representation bodies. We have historically maintained good employee relations and have successfully concluded all of our recent negotiations without a work stoppage. However, we cannot predict the outcome of future contract negotiations. Our strong employee base, along with their commitment to our uncompromising values of integrity, accountability, continuous improvement, teamwork, and customer focus, provide the foundation of our company’s success. Employee safety, and managing the risks associated with our workplace, is of paramount importance to JBT. We give employees the training and tools to manage risk. We also empower employees to stop work if they encounter an unsafe situation. JBT's Health and Safety program operates under management's belief that all injuries can be prevented, with a company objective of "Zero Incidents, Worldwide, Every Day.” Specifically, we have deployed a global Near Miss reporting program, under which potential unsafe conditions or behaviors are proactively reported and corrected before they cause an injury. JBT's foundational commitment to safety is demonstrated by our world-class recordable and loss-time rates below. This safety information is provided in the CEO report to the Board of Directors at every Board meeting. JBT embraces diversity, equity and inclusion ("DEI"), and we believe a diverse workforce fosters innovation and cultivates an environment filled with unique perspectives. We are committed to creating an inclusive culture where employees can bring their whole selves to work and we strive to use our resources to support causes that help to create a respectful and accepting global community. As part of JBT’s commitment to DEI, we established a global DEI Council in 2021 that partners with our executive management team to develop and deploy programs, processes and communications to further our DEI objectives. Specifically, we have partnered with Dr. Arin Reeves with Nextions LLC, an industry leader in DEI, to continue with our deployment of the JBT Inclusive Leadership Series (ILS). The ILS is a 6-session program that focuses on providing a series of structured and interactive leadership training session to leaders across the organization, with the primary objective to help JBT leaders incorporate inclusive practices into the way leaders manage their teams. We are also focused on recruitment of diverse candidates as well as on internal talent development of our diverse leaders so that they can advance their careers and move into leadership positions within the company. In addition, we announced the JBT Tom Giacomini Engineering Scholarship Program in 2021 to provide twelve annual individual scholarships to minority students pursuing an engineering degree that are currently members of one of three national 7 organizations: the Society of Women Engineers (SWE), the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE), and the National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE). We invest in programs and processes that develop our employees' capabilities to ensure that we have the talent we need to execute our strategic business plans. Our executive Performance Management Program ensures that all leaders have clear priorities, and that their performance relative to these priorities are linked to their total rewards package. Our annual Leadership Development Process include talent discussions in each of our businesses and corporate functions and culminates in a talent review with the executive leadership team and the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The result is a specific and actionable talent plan in every business that ensures the execution of the important priorities set for each business. In addition this review process includes discussions on management succession planning, retention risk and potential organization design based on employee performance. Our Leader Excellence Program provides an overview of the 13 competencies that have been identified in successful JBT leaders and deploys a formal framework through which these traits can be assessed and developed more broadly in our workforce. This ensures a fair, accurate and consistent approach in the development and assessment of leaders and potential leaders. We believe our management team has the experience necessary to effectively execute our strategy. Our CEO and segment leaders have significant industry experience and are supported by experienced and talented management teams who are dedicated to maintaining and expanding our position as a global leader in our markets. For discussion of the risks relating to the attraction and retention of management and executive management employees, see “Part 1. Item 1A. Risk Factors.” Governmental Regulation and Environmental Matters Our operations are subject to various federal, state, local, and foreign laws and regulations governing the prevention of pollution and the protection of environmental quality. If we fail to comply with these environmental laws and regulations, administrative, civil, and criminal penalties may be imposed, and we may become subject to regulatory enforcement actions in the form of injunctions and cease and desist orders. We may also be subject to civil claims arising out of an accident or other event causing environmental pollution. These laws and regulations may expose us to liability for the conduct of or conditions caused by others or for our own acts even though these actions were in compliance with all applicable laws at the time they were performed. Under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, referred to as CERCLA, and related state laws and regulations, joint and several liability can be imposed without regard to fault or the legality of the original conduct on certain classes of persons that contributed to the release of a hazardous substance into the environment. These persons include the owner and operator of a contaminated site where a hazardous substance release occurred and any company that transported, disposed of, or arranged for the transport or disposal of hazardous substances that have been released into the environment, including hazardous substances generated by any closed operations or facilities. In addition, neighboring landowners or other third parties may file claims for personal injury, property damage, and recovery of response cost. We may also be subject to the corrective action provisions of the Resource, Conservation and Recovery Act, or RCRA, and analogous state laws that require owners and operators of facilities that treat, store, or dispose of hazardous waste to clean up releases of hazardous waste constituents into the environment associated with their operations. Many of our facilities and operations are also governed by laws and regulations relating to worker health and workplace safety, including the Federal Occupational Safety and Health Act, or OSHA. We believe that appropriate precautions are taken to protect our employees and others from harmful exposure to potentially hazardous work environments, and that we operate in substantial compliance with all OSHA or similar regulations. We are also subject to laws and regulations related to conflict minerals, forced labor, export compliance, anti-corruption, and immigration and we have adopted policies, procedures and employee training programs that are designed to facilitate compliance with those laws and regulations.

RISK FACTORS You should carefully consider the risks described below, together with all of the other information included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, in evaluating our company and our common stock. If any of the risks described below actually occurs, our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and stock price could be materially adversely affected. BUSINESS AND OPERATIONAL RISKS Our financial results are subject to fluctuations caused by many factors that could result in our failing to achieve anticipated financial results and cause a drop in our stock price. Our quarterly and annual financial results have varied in the past and are likely to continue to vary in the future due to a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control. In particular, the contractual terms and the number and size of orders in the capital goods industries in which we compete vary significantly over time. The timing of our sales cycle from receipt of orders to shipment of the products or provision of services can significantly impact our sales and income in any given fiscal period. These and any one or more of the factors listed below, among other things, could cause us not to achieve our revenue or profitability expectations in any given period and the resulting failure to meet such expectations could cause a drop in our stock price: • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • volatility in demand for our products and services, including volatility in growth rates in the food processing and air transportation industries; downturns in our customers’ businesses resulting from deteriorating domestic and international economies where our customers conduct substantial business; increases in commodity prices resulting in increased manufacturing costs, such as petroleum-based products, metals or other raw materials we use in significant quantities; supply chain delays and interruptions; effects of tight labor market on our labor costs resulting from higher labor turnover, shortage of skilled labor, and higher labor absenteeism, also in part due to effects of COVID-19 pandemic; changes in pricing policies resulting from competitive pressures, including aggressive price discounting by our competitors and other market factors; our ability to develop and introduce on a timely basis new or enhanced versions of our products and services; unexpected needs for capital expenditures or other unanticipated expenses; changes in the mix of revenue attributable to domestic and international sales; changes in the mix of products and services that we sell; changes in foreign currency rates; seasonal fluctuations in buying patterns; future acquisitions and divestitures of technologies, products, and businesses; changes to trade regulation, quotas, duties or tariffs, caused by the changing U.S. and geopolitical environments; and cyber-attacks and other IT threats that could disable our IT infrastructure and create a meaningful inability to operate our business. The COVID-19 pandemic has and could continue to have a material adverse impact on our business operations and results of operations, and could have a material adverse impact on our cash flows and financial position. We continue to closely monitor the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of our business and geographies, including how it will impact our workforce, customers, and suppliers. The COVID-19 pandemic has created significant volatility, uncertainty and economic disruption. Many of our customers' businesses are experiencing significant disruptions and financial difficulties. We have 11 experienced restrictions in our access to customers and suppliers, higher labor absenteeism, supply chain disruption, as well as the impacts of an economic slowdown and uncertainties about demand. Disruptions in our customers' businesses have negatively impacted our results of operations for the years 2020 and 2021 and may negatively impact our results of operations in 2022. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact us will depend on numerous evolving factors and future developments that we are not able to predict, including: the severity of the virus; emergence of more transmissible COVID-19 variants; the duration of the pandemic and how long it will take for normal business operations to resume; governmental, business and other actions (including travel restrictions and quarantine requirements, or limitations on our operations); the implementation of social distancing measures; inability to source critical components and supply chain delays and international border closings; the impact of the pandemic on economic activity, customer demand and buying patterns; delay or cancellation of orders in our pipeline or backlog; the effects of plant closures or other changes to our operations; the health of and the effect on our workforce and our ability to meet staffing needs in our plants and other critical functions, particularly if significant portions of our work force are sick or quarantined as a result of exposure; and any impairment in value of our tangible or intangible assets. These factors may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. If the pandemic creates any disruptions or turmoil in the credit or financial markets, it could adversely affect our ability to access capital on favorable terms and continue to meet our liquidity needs. In addition, a material deterioration in our results of operations could impact our ability to meet our debt covenants in our credit agreement. This situation is enduring and continuing to evolve and additional impacts may arise that we are not aware of currently. The impact of COVID-19 may also exacerbate other risks discussed in these Risk Factors any of which could have a material adverse effect on us. For additional detail related to this risk, refer to the discussion under the sub-caption "Impact of COVID-19 on our Business" in Part II, Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis." The loss of key personnel or any inability to attract and retain additional personnel could affect our ability to successfully grow our business. Our performance is substantially dependent on the continued services and performance of our senior management and other key personnel. Our performance also depends on our ability to retain and motivate our officers and key employees. The loss of the services of any of our executive officers or other key employees for any reason could harm our business. Occasionally, members of senior management or key employees may find it necessary to take a leave of absence due to medical or other causes. Transitions in our senior executive management roles could adversely impact our strategic planning, specifically resulting in unexpected changes, or delays in the planning and execution of such plans and can cause a diversion of management time and attention. The cumulative loss of several significant contracts may negatively affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. We often enter into large, project-oriented contracts, or long-term equipment leases and service agreements. These agreements may be terminated or breached, or our customers may fail to renew these agreements. If we were to lose several significant agreements and if we were to fail to develop alternative business opportunities, then we could experience a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. We may lose money or not achieve our expected profitability on fixed-price contracts. As is customary for several of the business areas in which we operate, we may provide products and services under fixed-price contracts. Under such contracts, we are typically responsible for cost overruns. Our actual costs and any gross profit realized on these fixed-price contracts may vary from our estimates on which the pricing for such contracts was based. There are inherent risks and uncertainties in the estimation process, including those arising from unforeseen technical and logistical challenges or longer than expected lead times for sourcing raw materials and assemblies. A fixed-price contract may significantly limit or prohibit our ability to mitigate the impact of unanticipated increases in raw material prices (including the price of steel and other significant raw materials) by passing on such price increases. Depending on the volume of our work performed under fixed-price contracts at any one time, differences in actual versus estimated performance could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. We attempt to offset these cost increases through increases in pricing and efforts to lower costs through manufacturing efficiencies and cost reductions. However the impact of such increase costs may not be fully mitigated. 12 Infrastructure failures or catastrophic loss at any of our facilities, including damage or disruption to our information systems and information database, could lead to production and service curtailments or shutdowns and negatively affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. We manufacture our products at facilities in the United States, Belgium, Sweden, Brazil, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Germany. An interruption in production or service capabilities at any of our facilities as a result of equipment failure or any other reasons could result in our inability to manufacture our products. In the event of a stoppage in production at any of our facilities, even if only temporary, or if we experience delays as a result of events that are beyond our control, delivery times to our customers could be severely affected. Any significant delay in deliveries to our customers could lead to cancellations. Our operations are also dependent on our ability to protect our facilities, computer equipment and the information stored in our databases from damage by, among other things, earthquake, fire, natural disaster, explosions, power loss, telecommunications failures, hurricane, and other catastrophic events. For instance, a part of our operations is based in an area of California that has experienced earthquakes and wildfires and other natural disasters, while another part of our operations is based in an area of Florida that has experienced hurricanes and other natural disasters. Despite our best efforts at planning for such contingencies, catastrophic events of this nature may still result in delays in deliveries, catastrophic loss, system failures and other interruptions in our operations, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. In addition, it is periodically necessary to replace, upgrade, or modify our internal information systems. For example we are currently in the process of implementing common Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems across the majority of our businesses. If we are unable to do this in a timely and cost-effective manner, especially in light of demands on our information technology resources, our ability to capture and process financial transactions and therefore our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows may be materially adversely impacted. We are subject to cyber-security risks arising out of breaches of security relating to sensitive company, customer, and employee information and to the technology that manages our operations and other business processes. Our business operations rely upon secure information technology systems for data capture, processing, storage, and reporting. Notwithstanding careful security and controls design, our information technology systems, and those of our third-party providers could become subject to cyber-attacks. Network, system, application, and data breaches could result in operational disruptions or information misappropriation, including, but not limited to, inability to utilize our systems, and denial of access to and misuse of applications required by our clients to conduct business with us. Phishing and other forms of electronic fraud may also subject us to risks associated with improper access to financial assets, customer information and diversion of payments. Theft of intellectual property or trade secrets and inappropriate disclosure of confidential information could stem from such incidents. Any such operational disruption and/or misappropriation of information could result in lost sales, negative publicity or business delays and could have a material adverse effect on our business. In addition, requirements under the privacy laws of the jurisdictions in which we operate, such as the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and California Consumer Privacy Act impose significant costs that are likely to increase over time. Our results of operations can be adversely affected by labor shortages, turnover and labor cost increases. We have from time-to-time experienced labor shortages and other labor-related issues. These labor shortages have become more pronounced as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and a sharp increase in demand for industrial goods as the global economy recovers from the effects of the pandemic. A number of factors may adversely affect the labor force available to us in one or more of our markets, including high employment levels, federal unemployment subsidies, and other government regulations, which include laws and regulations related to workers’ health and safety, wage and hour practices and immigration. These factors can also impact the cost of labor. Increased turnover rates within our employee base can lead to decreased efficiency and increased costs, such as increased overtime to meet demand and increased wage rates to attract and retain employees. An overall labor shortage or lack of skilled labor, increased turnover, higher rates of absenteeism or labor inflation could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. INDUSTRY RISKS Deterioration of economic conditions could adversely impact our business. Our business may be adversely affected by changes in current or future national or global economic conditions, including lower growth rates or recession, high unemployment, rising interest rates, limited availability of capital, decreases in consumer spending 13 rates, the availability and cost of energy, tightening of government monetary policies to contain inflation and the effect of government deficit reduction, sequestration, and other austerity measures impacting the markets we serve. Any such changes could adversely affect the demand for our products or the cost and availability of our required raw materials, which can have a material adverse effect on our financial results. Adverse national and global economic conditions could, among other things: • make it more difficult or costly for us to obtain necessary financing for our operations, our investments and our acquisitions, or to refinance our debt; • • • • • • • • cause our lenders or other financial instrument counterparties to be unable to honor their commitments or otherwise default under our financing arrangements; impair the financial condition of some of our customers, thereby hindering our customers’ ability to obtain financing to purchase our products and/or increasing customer bad debts; cause customers to forgo or postpone new purchases in favor of repairing existing equipment and machinery, and delay or reduce preventative maintenance, thereby reducing our revenue and/or profits; negatively impact our customers’ ability to raise pricing to counteract increased fuel, labor, and other costs, making it less likely that they will expend the same capital and other resources on our equipment as they have in the past; impair the financial condition of some of our suppliers thereby potentially increasing both the likelihood of our having to renegotiate supply terms on terms that may not be as favorable to us and the risk of non-performance by suppliers; negatively impact global demand for air transportation services as well as for technologically sophisticated food production equipments, which could result in a reduction of sales, operating income, and cash flows in our AeroTech and FoodTech segments; negatively affect the rates of expansion, consolidation, renovation, and equipment replacement within the air transportation industry and within the food processing industry, which may adversely affect the results of operations of our AeroTech and FoodTech segments; and impair the financial viability of our insurers. Variability in the length of our sales cycles makes accurate estimation of our revenue in any single period difficult and can result in significant fluctuation in quarterly operating results. The length of our sales cycle varies depending on a number of factors over which we may have little or no control, including the size and complexity of a potential transaction, the level of competition that we encounter during our selling process, and our current and potential customers’ internal budgeting and approval processes. Many of our sales are subject to an extended sales cycle. As a result, we may expend significant effort and resources over long periods of time in an attempt to obtain an order, but ultimately not obtain the order, or obtain an order that is smaller than we anticipated. Revenue generated by any one of our customers may vary from quarter to quarter, and a customer who places a large order in one quarter may generate significantly lower revenue in subsequent quarters. Due to the length and uncertainty of our sales cycle, and the variability of orders from period to period, we believe that quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our revenue and operating results may not be an accurate indicator of our future performance. Our inability to secure raw material supply, component parts, sub assemblies, finished good assemblies, installation labor, and/or logistics capacity in a timely and cost-effective manner from suppliers would adversely affect our ability to manufacture, install and/or distribute products to customers. We purchase raw materials, component parts, sub assemblies, and/or finished good assemblies for use in manufacturing, installation, service and/or distribution of our products to customers. Logistics availability and other external factors impacting our inbound and outbound transportation, raw material supply, component parts, sub assemblies, and/or finished goods we procure could result in manufacturing, installation and/or outbound transportation delays, inefficiencies, or our inability to distribute products if we cannot timely and efficiently manufacture them. In addition, our gross margins could be adversely impacted if raw materials, component parts, sub assemblies, finished goods, installation services and/or logistics providers higher cost are not able to be passed onto customers in a timely manner. The disruptions to the global economy, which began in 2020 and continued throughout the year 2021 have impeded global supply chains, resulting in longer lead times and increased raw material costs. We have taken steps to minimize the impact of these increased costs by working closely with our suppliers and customers. Despite the actions we have taken to minimize the impacts of supply chain 14 disruptions, there can be no assurances that unforeseen future events in the global supply chain and inflationary pressures, will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. An increase in energy or raw material prices may reduce the profitability of our customers, which ultimately could negatively affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Energy prices are volatile. High energy prices have a negative trickledown effect on our customers’ business operations by reducing their profitability because of increased operating costs. Our customers require large amounts of energy to run their businesses, particularly in the air transportation industry. Higher energy prices can reduce passenger and cargo air carrier profitability as a result of increased jet and ground support equipment fuel prices. Higher energy prices also increase food processors’ operating costs through increased energy and utility costs to run their plants, higher priced chemical and petroleum based raw materials used in food processing, and higher fuel costs to run their logistics and service fleet vehicles. Food processors are also affected by the cost and availability of raw materials such as feed grains, livestock, produce, and dairy products. Increases in the cost of and limitations in the availability of such raw materials can negatively affect the profitability of food processors’ operations. Any reduction in our customers’ profitability due to higher energy or raw material costs or otherwise may reduce their future expenditures in the food processing equipment or airport equipment that we provide. This reduction may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Changes in food consumption patterns due to dietary trends or economic conditions may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Dietary trends can create demand for protein food products but negatively impact demand for high-carbohydrate foods, or create demand for easy to prepare, transportable meals but negatively impact traditional canned food products. Because different food types and food packaging can quickly go in and out of style as a function of dietary, health, convenience, or sustainability trends, food processors can be challenged in accurately forecasting their needed manufacturing capacity and the related investment in equipment and services. During periods of economic uncertainty, consumer demand for protein products or processed food products may be negatively impacted by increases in food prices. A demand shift away from protein products or processed foods could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Freezes, hurricanes, droughts, other natural disasters, adverse weather conditions, outbreak of animal borne diseases (H5N1, BSE, or other virus strains affecting poultry or livestock), citrus tree diseases, or food borne illnesses or other food safety or quality concerns may negatively affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. An outbreak or pandemic stemming from H5N1 (avian flu), BSE (mad cow disease), African swine fever (pork) or any other animal related disease strains could reduce the availability of poultry or beef that is processed for the restaurant, food service, wholesale or retail consumer. Any limitation on the availability of such raw materials could discourage food producers from making additional capital investments in processing equipment, aftermarket products, parts, and services that our FoodTech business provides. Such a decrease in demand for our products could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. The success of our business that serves the citrus food processing industry is directly related to the viability and health of citrus crops. The citrus industries in Florida, Brazil, and other countries are facing increased pressure on their harvest productivity and citrus bearing acreage due to citrus canker and greening diseases. These citrus tree diseases are often incurable once a tree has been infested and the end result can be the destruction of the tree. Reduced amounts of available fruit for the processed or fresh food markets could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. In the event an E. coli or other food borne illness causes a recall of meat or produce, the companies supplying those fresh, further processed or packaged forms of those products could be severely adversely affected. Any negative impact on the financial viability of our fresh or processed food provider customers could adversely affect our immediate and recurring revenue base. We also face the risk of direct exposure to liabilities associated with product recalls to the extent that our products are determined to have caused an issue leading to a recall. In the event a natural disaster negatively affects growers or farm production, the food processing industry may not have the fresh food raw materials necessary to meet consumer demand. Crops or entire groves or fields can be severely damaged by a drought, freeze, or hurricane, wildfires or adverse weather conditions, including the effects of climate change. An extended drought or freeze or a high category hurricane could permanently damage or destroy a tree crop area. If orchards have to be replanted, trees may not produce viable product for several years. Since our recurring revenue is dependent on growers’ and farmers’ ability to provide high quality 15 crops to certain of our customers, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows could be materially adversely impacted in the event of a freeze, hurricane, drought, or other natural disaster. Our failure to comply with the laws and regulations governing our U.S. government contracts or the loss of production funding of any of our U.S. government contracts could harm our business. The U.S. government represented approximately 2% of our 2021 revenue, directly or through subcontracts. Our JBT AeroTech business contracts with the U.S. government and subcontracts with defense contractors conducting business with U.S. government. As a result, we are subject to various laws and regulations that apply to companies doing business with the U.S. government. The laws governing U.S. government contracts differ in several respects from the laws governing private company contracts. Government contracts are highly regulated to curb misappropriation of funds and to ensure uniform policies and practices across various governmental agencies. Funding for such contracts is tied to national defense budgets and procurement programs that are annually negotiated and require approvals by the U.S. Department of Defense, the Executive Branch, and the Congress. For example, if there were any shifts in spending priorities or if funding for the defense aircraft programs were reduced or canceled as a result of the sequestration, policy changes, or for other reasons, the resulting loss of revenue could have a material adverse impact on our AeroTech business. Many U.S. government contracts contain pricing terms and conditions that are not applicable to private contracts. In particular, U.S. defense contracts are unilaterally terminable at the option of the U.S. government with compensation only for work completed and costs incurred to date. In addition, any deliverable delays under such contracts as a result of our non-performance could also have a negative impact on these contracts. Non-compliance with the laws and regulations governing U.S. government contracts or subcontracts may result in significant sanctions such as debarment (restrictions from future business with the government). If we were found not to be in compliance now or in the future with any such laws or regulations, our results of operations could be adversely impacted. Customer sourcing initiatives may adversely affect our new equipment and aftermarket businesses. Many multi-national companies, including our customers and prospective customers, have undertaken supply chain integration to provide a sustainable competitive advantage against their competitors. Under continued price pressure from consumers, wholesalers and retailers, our manufacturer customers are focused on controlling and reducing cost, enhancing their sourcing processes, and improving their profitability. A key value proposition of our equipment and services is low total cost of ownership. If our customers implement sourcing initiatives that focus solely on immediate cost savings and not on total cost of ownership, our new equipment and aftermarket sales could be adversely affected. Our business could suffer in the event of a work stoppage by our unionized or non-union labor force. A portion of our employees in the United States are represented by collective bargaining agreements. Outside the United States, we enter into employment contracts and agreements in certain countries in which national employee unions are mandatory or customary, such as in Belgium, Sweden, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands, Germany and China. Any future strikes, employee slowdowns, or similar actions by one or more unions, in connection with labor contract negotiations or otherwise, could have a material adverse effect on our ability to operate our business. LEGAL AND REGULATORY RISKS Disruptions in the political, regulatory, economic and social conditions of the countries in which we conduct business could negatively affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. We operate manufacturing facilities in eleven countries other than the United States, the largest of which are located in Belgium, Sweden, Brazil, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Germany. Our international sales accounted for 34% of our 2021 revenue. Multiple factors relating to our international operations and to those particular countries in which we operate or seek to expand our operations could have an adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. These factors include, among others: • • • • economic downturns, inflationary and recessionary markets, including in capital and equity markets; civil unrest, political instability, terrorist attacks, and wars; nationalization, expropriation, or seizure of assets; potentially unfavorable tax law changes; 16 • • • • • • • • • inability to repatriate income or capital; foreign ownership restrictions; export regulations that could erode profit margins or restrict exports, including import or export licensing regulations; trade restrictions, tariffs, and other trade protection measures, or price controls; restrictions on operations, trade practices, trade partners, and investment decisions resulting from domestic and foreign laws and regulations; compliance with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and other similar laws; burden and cost of complying with different national and local laws, treaties, and technical standards and changes in those regulations; transportation delays and interruptions; and reductions in the availability of qualified personnel. Changes to trade regulation, quotas, duties or tariffs, caused by the changing U.S. and geopolitical environments or otherwise, may increase our costs or limit the amount of raw materials and products that we can import, or may otherwise adversely impact or business. The current U.S. administration has continued with the import duties or other restrictions on products or raw materials sourced from countries that it perceives as engaging in unfair trade practices. For instance, since 2018, the U.S. government has imposed tariffs on steel and aluminum imports and on specified imports from China. In response to these tariffs, several major U.S. trading partners have imposed, or announced their intention to impose, tariffs on U.S. goods. We import raw materials from or manufacture our products in China and other such countries subject to these tariffs. Any such duties or restrictions could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition. Moreover, these tariffs, or other changes in U.S. trade policy, could trigger retaliatory actions by affected countries. Certain foreign governments have instituted or are considering imposing trade sanctions on certain U.S. goods. Others are considering the imposition of sanctions that will deny U.S. companies access to critical raw materials. A “trade war” of this nature or other governmental action related to tariffs or international trade agreements or policies has the potential to adversely impact demand for our products, our costs, customers, suppliers and/or the U.S. economy or certain sectors thereof and, thus, to adversely impact our businesses. Climate change and climate change legislation or regulations may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. An increasing concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere may produce significant physical effects, such as increased frequency and severity of storms, droughts, and floods and other climate events, that could have adverse physical and financial effects on our operations. Extreme weather conditions in general require more system backup, adding to costs, and can contribute to service and supply chain interruptions. A number of governmental bodies have finalized, proposed, or are contemplating legislative and regulatory changes in response to the potential effects of climate change. Such legislation or regulation has and potentially could include provisions for a “cap and trade” system of allowances and credits or a carbon tax, limiting availability of arable land among other provisions that would likely have a negative impact our customers in both AeroTech and Food Tech industry. We, along with other companies in many business sectors, including our customers, are considering and implementing ways to track and reduce emissions of greenhouse gas. As a result, our customers may request that changes be made to our products or facilities, as well as other aspects of our production processes, that increase costs and may require the investment of capital. The failure to comply with these requests could adversely affect our relationships with some customers, which in turn could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. We could face increased costs related to defending and resolving legal claims and other litigation related to climate change and the alleged impact of our operations on climate change. Further, customer, investor, and employee expectations in areas such as environmental, social matters and corporate governance (ESG) have been rapidly evolving and increasing. The enhanced stakeholder focus on ESG issues related to our industry requires the continuous monitoring of various and evolving standards and expectations and the associated reporting requirements. A failure to adequately meet stakeholder expectations may result in the loss of business, diluted market valuation, an inability to attract customers and an inability to attract and retain top talent. 17 Environmental protection initiatives may negatively impact the profitability of our business. Future environmental regulatory developments in the United States and abroad concerning environmental issues, such as climate change, could adversely affect our operations and increase operating costs and, through their impact on our customers, reduce demand for our products and services. Actions may be taken in the future by the U.S. government, state governments within the United States, foreign governments, or by signatory countries through a new global climate change treaty to regulate the emission of greenhouse gases. Pressures to reduce the footprint of carbon emissions impact the air transportation and manufacturing sectors. Airports, airlines, and air cargo providers are continually looking for new ways to become more energy efficient and reduce pollutants. Manufacturing plants are seeking means to reduce their heat-trapping emissions and minimize their energy and water usage. The precise nature of any such future environmental regulatory requirements and their applicability to us and our customers are difficult to predict, but the impact to us and the industries that we serve would likely be adverse and could be significant, including the potential for increased fuel costs, carbon taxes or fees, or a requirement to purchase carbon credits. Our operations and industries are subject to a variety of U.S. and international laws, which can change. We therefore face uncertainties with regard to lawsuits, regulations, and other related matters. In the normal course of business, we are subject to proceedings, lawsuits, claims, and other matters, including those that relate to the environment, health and safety, employee benefits, import and export compliance, intellectual property, product liability, tax matters, securities regulation, and regulatory compliance. For example, we are subject to changes in foreign laws and regulations that may encourage or require us to hire local contractors or require foreign contractors to employ citizens of, or purchase supplies from, a particular non-U.S. jurisdiction. In addition, environmental laws and regulations affect the systems and services we design, market and sell, as well as the facilities where we manufacture our systems. We are required to invest financial and managerial resources to comply with environmental laws and regulations and anticipate that we will continue to be required to do so in the future. We could be adversely affected by violations of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and similar worldwide anti-bribery laws. The U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), the U.K. Bribery Act of 2010 (the U.K. Bribery Act), and similar anti-bribery laws in other jurisdictions generally prohibit companies and their intermediaries from making improper payments for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. Our policies mandate compliance with these anti-bribery laws. We operate in many parts of the world that have experienced governmental corruption to some degree and, in certain circumstances, strict compliance with anti-bribery laws may conflict with local customs and practices. Despite our training and compliance programs, there is no assurance that our internal control policies and procedures will protect us from acts committed by our employees or agents. If we are found to be liable for FCPA, the U.K. Bribery Act or other similar violations (either due to our own acts, or due to the acts of others), we could suffer from civil and criminal penalties or other sanctions, which could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. We are subject to governmental export controls and economic sanctions laws that could impair our ability to compete in international markets and subject us to liability if we are not in full compliance with applicable laws. Our business activities are subject to various restrictions under U.S. export controls and trade and economic sanctions laws, including the U.S. Commerce Department’s Export Administration Regulations (EAR), the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), and economic and trade sanctions regulations maintained by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). We are subject to similar laws and regulations in other countries in which we operate or make sales. If we fail to comply with these laws and regulations, we and certain of our employees could be subject to civil or criminal penalties and reputational harm. Obtaining the necessary authorizations, including any required license, for a particular transaction may be time-consuming, is not guaranteed, and may result in the delay or loss of sales opportunities. Furthermore, U.S. export control laws and economic sanctions laws in the U.S. and other countries prohibit certain transactions with U.S. embargoed or sanctioned countries, governments, persons and entities. Although we take precautions to prevent transactions with sanction targets, the possibility exists that we could inadvertently provide our products or services to persons prohibited by sanctions. This could result in negative consequences to us, including government investigations, penalties, and reputational harm. Unfavorable tax law changes and tax authority rulings may adversely affect results. We are subject to income taxes in the United States and in various foreign jurisdictions. Domestic and international tax liabilities are subject to the allocation of income among various tax jurisdictions. Our effective tax rate could be adversely affected by changes in the mix of earnings among countries with differing statutory tax rates, changes in the valuation allowance of deferred tax assets, or tax laws. We are subject to ongoing audits by U.S. federal, state, and local tax authorities and by non-U.S. authorities. If these audits result in assessments different from amounts we recorded, future financial results may include unfavorable tax adjustments. 18 Beginning in 2022, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 eliminates the option to deduct research and development expenditures immediately in the year incurred and requires taxpayers to amortize such expenditures in the U.S. over five years. Congress has proposed tax legislation to delay the effective date of this change, but it is uncertain whether the proposed delay will ultimately be enacted into law. If the current effective date remains in place, the Company's initial assessment is that the Company would experience a material decrease in cash from operations in 2022 and the impact will continue over the five-year amortization period, but the impact will decrease each year. BUSINESS STRATEGY RISKS We face risks associated with current and future acquisitions. To achieve our strategic objectives, we have pursued and expect to continue to pursue expansion opportunities such as acquiring other businesses or assets. Expanding through acquisitions involves risks such as: • • • • • • • • • • the incurrence of additional debt to finance the acquisition or expansion; additional liabilities (whether known or unknown), including, among others, product, environmental or pension liabilities of the acquired business or assets; risks and costs associated with integrating the acquired business or new facility into our operations; the need to retain and assimilate key employees of the acquired business or assets; unanticipated demands on our management, operational resources and financial and internal control systems; unanticipated regulatory risks; the risk of being denied the necessary licenses, permits and approvals from state, local and foreign governments, and the costs and time associated with obtaining such licenses, permits and approvals; risks that we do not achieve anticipated operating efficiencies, synergies and economies of scale; and risks in retaining the existing customers and contracts of the acquired business or assets. risk that unforeseen issues with an acquisition may adversely affect the anticipated results of the business or value of the intangible assets and trigger an evaluation of the recoverability of the recorded goodwill and intangible assets for such business. If we are unable to effectively integrate acquired businesses or newly formed operations, or if such acquired businesses underperform relative to our expectations, this may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, and results of operations. We have invested substantial resources in certain markets and strategic initiatives where we expect growth, and our business may suffer if we are unable to achieve the growth we expect. As part of our strategy to grow, we are expanding our operations in certain emerging or developing markets, and accordingly have made and expect to continue to make investments to support anticipated growth in those regions. We have also increased our investments in our digital capabilities to support potential growth in digital opportunities for our business lines. We may fail to realize expected rates of return on our existing investments or incur losses on such investments, and we may be unable to redeploy capital to take advantage of other markets, business lines or other potential areas of growth. Our results will also suffer if these regions, business lines or capabilities do not grow as quickly as we anticipate. Our restructuring initiatives may not achieve the expected cost reductions or other anticipated benefits. We regularly evaluate our existing operations, service capacity, and business efficiencies to determine if a realignment or restructuring could improve our results of operations or achieve some other business goal. Our realignment and restructuring initiatives are designed to result in more efficient and increasingly profitable operations. Our ability to achieve the anticipated cost savings and other benefits from these initiatives within the expected time frame is subject to many estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions are subject to significant economic, competitive, and other uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control. Failure to achieve the expected cost reductions related to these restructuring initiatives could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. 19 The industries in which we operate expose us to potential liabilities arising out of the installation or use of our systems that could negatively affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Our equipment, systems and services create potential exposure for us for personal injury, wrongful death, product liability, commercial claims, product recalls, production loss, property damage, pollution, and other environmental damages. In the event that a customer who purchases our equipment becomes subject to claims relating to food borne illnesses or other food safety or quality issues relating to food processed through the use of our equipment, we could be exposed to significant claims from our customers. Although we have obtained business and related risk insurance, we cannot assure you that our insurance will be adequate to cover all potential liabilities. Further, we cannot assure you that insurance will generally be available in the future or, if available, that premiums to obtain such insurance will be commercially reasonable. If we incur substantial liability and damages arising from such liability are not covered by insurance or are in excess of policy limits, or if we were to incur liability at a time when we are not able to obtain liability insurance, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows could be materially adversely affected. TECHNOLOGY RISKS To remain competitive, we need to rapidly and successfully develop and introduce complex new solutions in a global, competitive, demanding, and changing environment. If we lose our significant technology advantage in our products and services, our market share and growth could be materially adversely affected. In addition, if we are unable to deliver products, features, and functionality as projected, we may be unable to meet our commitments to customers, which could have a material adverse effect on our reputation and business. Significant investments in research and development efforts that do not lead to successful products, features, and functionality, could also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows could be materially adversely affected by competing technology. Some of our competitors are large multinational companies that may have greater financial resources than us, and they may be able to devote greater resources to research and development of new systems, services, and technologies than we are able to do. Moreover, some of our competitors operate in narrow business areas, allowing them to concentrate their research and development efforts more directly on products and services for those areas than we may be able to. High capacity products or products with new technology may be more likely to experience reliability, quality, or operability problems. Even with rigorous testing prior to release and investment in product quality processes, problems may be found in newly developed or enhanced products after such products are launched and shipped to customers. Resolution of such issues may cause project delays, additional development costs, and deferred or lost revenue. New products and enhancements of our existing products may also reduce demand for our existing products or could delay purchases by customers who instead decide to wait for our new or enhanced products. Difficulties that arise in our managing the transition from our older products to our new or enhanced products could result in additional costs and deferred or lost revenue. We may need to make significant capital and operating expenditures to keep pace with technological developments in our industry. The industries in which we participate are constantly undergoing development and change, and it is likely that new products, equipment, and service methods will be introduced in the future. We may need to make significant expenditures to purchase new equipment and to train our employees to keep pace with any new technological developments. These expenditures could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. If we are unable to develop, preserve, and protect our intellectual property assets, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows may be negatively affected. We strive to protect and enhance our proprietary intellectual property rights through patent, copyright, trademark, and trade secret laws, as well as through technological safeguards and operating policies and procedures. To the extent we are not successful, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows could be materially adversely impacted. We may be unable to prevent third parties from using our technology without our authorization, or from independently developing technology that is similar to ours, particularly in those countries where the laws do not protect our proprietary rights as fully as in others. With respect to our pending patent applications, we may not be successful in securing patents for these claims, and our competitors may already have applied for patents that, once issued, will prevail over our patent rights or otherwise limit our ability to sell our products. 20 Claims by others that we infringe their intellectual property rights could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. We have seen a trend towards aggressive enforcement of intellectual property rights as product functionality in our industry increasingly overlaps and the number of issued patents continues to grow. As a result, there is a risk that we could be subject to infringement claims which, regardless of their validity, could: • • • • be expensive, time consuming, and divert management attention away from normal business operations; require us to pay monetary damages or enter into non-standard royalty and licensing agreements; require us to modify our product sales and development plans; or require us to satisfy indemnification obligations to our customers. Regardless of whether these claims have any merit, they can be burdensome and costly to defend or settle and can harm our business and reputation. RISKS RELATED TO OWNERSHIP OF OUR SECURITIES The convertible note hedge and warrant transactions may negatively affect the value of the Notes and our common stock. In connection with the pricing of the Company's Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 (the "Notes"), we entered into convertible note hedge transactions (the "Hedge Transactions") with the option counterparties. We also entered into warrant transactions with the option counterparties. The Hedge Transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to our common stock upon any conversion of Notes and/or offset any cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Notes, as the case may be. However, the warrant transactions could separately have a dilutive effect on our common stock to the extent that the market price per share of our common stock exceeds the strike price of the warrants. The option counterparties or their respective affiliates may modify their hedge positions by entering into or unwinding various derivatives with respect to our common stock and/or purchasing or selling our common stock or other securities of ours in secondary market transactions following the pricing of the Notes and prior to the maturity of the Notes (and are likely to do in connection with any conversion of the Notes or redemption or repurchase of the Notes). This activity could also cause or avoid an increase or a decrease in the market price of our common stock or the Notes, which could affect the Note holders' ability to convert the Notes and, to the extent the activity occurs during any observation period related to a conversion of the Notes, it could affect the number of shares and value of the consideration that Note holders will receive upon conversion of the Notes. We are subject to counterparty risk with respect to the convertible note hedge transactions. The option counterparties are financial institutions, and we are subject to the risk that any or all of them might default under the Hedge Transactions. Our exposure to the credit risk of the option counterparties is not secured by any collateral. If an option counterparty becomes subject to insolvency proceedings, we will become an unsecured creditor in those proceedings with a claim equal to our exposure at that time under the Hedge Transactions with such option counterparty. Our exposure will depend on many factors but, generally, an increase in our exposure will be correlated to an increase in the market price and in the volatility of our common stock. In addition, upon a default by an option counterparty, we may suffer adverse tax consequences and more dilution than we currently anticipate with respect to our common stock. We can provide no assurances as to the financial stability or viability of the option counterparties. Conversion of the Notes or exercise of the warrants evidenced by the warrant transactions may dilute the ownership interest of existing stockholders. At our election, we may settle Notes tendered for conversion entirely or partly in shares of our common stock. Furthermore, the warrants evidenced by the warrant transactions are expected to be settled on a net-share basis. As a result, the conversion of some or all of the Notes or the exercise of some or all of such warrants may dilute the ownership interests of existing stockholders. Any sales in the public market of the common stock issuable upon such conversion of the Notes or such exercise of the warrants could adversely affect prevailing market prices of our common stock and, in turn, the price of the Notes. In addition, the existence of the Notes may encourage short selling by market participants because the conversion of the Notes could depress the price of our common stock. 21 GENERAL RISKS Fluctuations in currency exchange rates could negatively affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. A significant portion of our revenue and expenses are realized in foreign currencies. As a result, changes in exchange rates will result in increases or decreases in our costs and earnings and may adversely affect our Consolidated Financial Statements, which are stated in U.S. dollars. Although we may seek to minimize currency exchange risk by engaging in hedging transactions where we deem appropriate, we cannot be assured that our efforts will be successful. Currency fluctuations may also result in our systems and services becoming more expensive and less competitive than those of other suppliers in the foreign countries in which we sell our systems and services. Terrorist attacks and threats, escalation of military activity in response to such attacks, acts of war, or outbreak of pandemic diseases may negatively affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Any future terrorist attacks against U.S. targets, rumors or threats of war, actual conflicts involving the United States or its allies, or military or trade disruptions affecting our customers or the economy as a whole may materially adversely affect our operations or those of our customers. Strategic targets such as those relating to transportation and food processing may be at greater risk of future terrorist attacks than other targets in the United States. Our airport authority, airline, air cargo and ground handling customers are also particularly sensitive to safety concerns, and their businesses may decline after terrorist attacks or threats or during periods of political instability when travelers are concerned about safety issues. Furthermore, outbreaks of pandemic diseases, such as COVID-19, or the fear of such events, could provoke responses, including government-imposed travel restrictions and extended shutdown of certain businesses, customers, and/or supply chain disruptions in affected regions. As a result, there could be delays or losses in transportation and deliveries to our customers, decreased sales of our products, and delays in payments by our customers. A decline in these customers’ businesses could have a negative impact on their demand for our products. It is possible that any of these occurrences, or a combination of them, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Our existing financing agreements include restrictive and financial covenants. Certain of our loan agreements require us to comply with various restrictive covenants and some contain financial covenants that require us to comply with specified financial ratios and tests. Our failure to meet these covenants could result in default under these loan agreements and would result in a cross-default under other loan agreements. In the event of a default and our inability to obtain a waiver of the default, all amounts outstanding under loan agreements could be declared immediately due and payable. Our failure to comply with these covenants could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. Fluctuations in interest rates could adversely affect our results of operations and financial position. Our profitability may be adversely affected during any periods of unexpected or rapid increases in interest rates on our variable rate debt outstanding at December 31, 2021. A significant increase in interest rates would significantly increase our cost of borrowings, and may reduce the availability and increase the cost of obtaining new debt and refinancing existing indebtedness. For additional detail related to this risk, see Part II, Item 7A, "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk." Changes affecting the availability of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) may have consequences for JBT that cannot yet reasonably be predicted. We have outstanding debt and derivative transactions with variable interest rates based on LIBOR. The LIBOR benchmark has been the subject of national, international, and other regulatory guidance and proposals for reform. On March 5, 2021, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, announced it will cease publication of the most commonly used U.S. dollar LIBOR tenors after June 30, 2023, though the less commonly used tenors will cease publication after December 31, 2021. U.S. federal banking agencies have issued guidance strongly encouraging institutions to cease entering into contracts that reference LIBOR as soon as practicable, and no later than December 31, 2021. Alternative benchmark rate(s) may replace LIBOR and could affect the Company's derivative instruments, debt payments and receipts. At this time, it is not possible to predict the effect of any changes to LIBOR, the phase out of LIBOR or any establishment of alternative benchmark rates. Any new benchmark rate will likely not replicate LIBOR exactly, which could impact our contracts which terminate after June 2023. There is uncertainty about how applicable law, the courts or the Company will address the replacement of LIBOR with alternative rates on contracts that do not include alternative rate fallback provisions. In addition, any changes to benchmark rates may have an uncertain impact on our cost of funds and our access to the capital markets, which could impact our results of operations and cash flows. 22 Significant changes in actual investment return on pension assets, discount rates, and other factors could affect our results of operations, equity, and pension contributions in future periods. Our results of operations may be positively or negatively affected by the amount of income or expense we record for our defined benefit pension plans. U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) require that we calculate income or expense for the plans using actuarial valuations. These valuations reflect assumptions about financial market and other economic conditions, which may change based on changes in key economic indicators. The most significant year-end assumptions we use to estimate pension income or expense are the discount rate and the expected long-term rate of return on plans assets. In addition, we are required to make an annual measurement of plan assets and liabilities, which may result in a significant change to equity through a reduction or increase to accumulated other comprehensive income. For a discussion regarding how our financial statements can be affected by pension plan accounting policies, see Part II, Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Estimates – Defined Benefit Pension and Other Post-retirement Plans and Note 8. Pension and Post-Retirement and Other Benefit Plans of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Although GAAP expense and pension funding contributions are not directly related, key economic factors that affect GAAP expense would also likely affect the amount of cash we would contribute to pension plans as required under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act. As a result of our acquisition activity, our goodwill and intangible assets have increased significantly in recent years and we may in the future incur impairments to goodwill or intangible assets. When we acquire a business, a substantial portion of the purchase price of the acquisition is allocated to goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets. The amount of the purchase price which is allocated to goodwill is determined by the excess of the purchase price over the net identifiable assets acquired. Our balance sheet includes a significant amount of goodwill and other intangible assets, which represents approximately 48% of our total assets as of December 31, 2021. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 350 Intangibles-Goodwill and Other, our goodwill and other intangibles are reviewed for impairment annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Our valuation methodology for assessing impairment requires management to make judgments and assumptions based on historical experience and to rely heavily on projections of future operating performance. Because we operate in highly competitive environments, projections of our future operating results and cash flows may vary significantly from our actual results. If our estimates or the underlying assumptions change in the future, we may be required to record impairment charges. Any such charge could have a material adverse effect on our reported net income. As a publicly traded company, we incur regulatory costs that reduce profitability. As a publicly traded corporation, we incur certain costs to comply with regulatory requirements of the NYSE and of the federal securities laws. If regulatory requirements were to become more stringent or if accounting or other controls thought to be effective later fail, we may be forced to make additional expenditures, the amounts of which could be material. Many of our competitors are privately owned, so our accounting and control costs can be a competitive disadvantage. Our share repurchase program could increase the volatility of the price of our common stock. On December 1, 2021, the Board authorized a share repurchase program for up to $30 million of common stock beginning on January 1, 2022 and continuing through December 31, 2024.We intend to fund repurchases through cash flows generated by our operations. The amount and timing of share repurchases are based on a variety of factors. Important factors that could cause us to limit, suspend or delay the Company’s stock repurchases include unfavorable market conditions, the trading price of the Company’s common stock, the nature of other investment opportunities presented to us from time to time, the ability to obtain financing at attractive rates, and the availability of U.S. cash. Repurchases of our shares will reduce the number of outstanding shares of our common stock and might incrementally increase the potential for volatility in our common stock by reducing the potential volumes at which our common stock may trade in the public market. Our actual operating results may differ significantly from our guidance. We regularly release guidance regarding our future performance that represents management’s estimates as of the date of release. This guidance, which consists of forward-looking statements, is qualified by, and subject to, the assumptions and the other information contained or referred to in the release or report in which guidance is given. Our guidance is not prepared with a view toward compliance with published guidelines of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and neither our independent registered public accounting firm nor any other independent expert or outside party compiles or examines the guidance and, accordingly, no such person expresses any opinion or any other form of assurance with respect thereto. 23 Guidance is based upon a number of assumptions and estimates that, while presented with numerical specificity, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control and are based upon specific assumptions with respect to future business decisions, some of which will change. We generally state possible outcomes as high and low ranges which are intended to provide a sensitivity analysis as variables are changed, but are not intended to represent that actual results could not fall outside of the suggested ranges. The principal reason that we release this data is to provide a basis for management to discuss our business outlook with analysts and investors. We do not accept any responsibility for any projections or reports published by any such persons. Guidance is necessarily speculative in nature, and it can be expected that some or all of the assumptions of the guidance furnished by us will not materialize or will vary significantly from actual results. Accordingly, our guidance is only an estimate of what management believes is realizable as of the date of release. Actual results may vary from the guidance and the variations may be material. Investors should also recognize that the reliability of any forecasted financial data diminishes the farther in the future that the data are forecast. In light of the foregoing, investors are urged to put the guidance in context and not to place undue reliance on it. Our corporate governance documents and Delaware law may delay or discourage takeovers and business combinations that our stockholders might consider in their best interests. Provisions in our certificate of incorporation and by-laws may make it difficult and expensive for a third-party to pursue a tender offer, change-in-control, or takeover attempt that is opposed by our management and Board of Directors. These provisions include, among others: • • • • • A Board of Directors that is divided into three classes with staggered terms; Limitations on the right of stockholders to remove directors; The right of our Board of Directors to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval; The inability of our stockholders to act by written consent; and Rules and procedures regarding how stockholders may present proposals or nominate directors at stockholders meetings. Public stockholders who might desire to participate in this type of transaction may not have an opportunity to do so. These anti- takeover provisions could substantially impede the ability of public stockholders to benefit from a change-in-control or a change in our management or Board of Directors and, as a result, may adversely affect the marketability and market price of our common stock. Our indebtedness and liabilities could limit the cash flow available for our operations and we may not be able to generate sufficient cash to service all of our indebtedness. We may be forced to take certain actions to satisfy our obligations under our indebtedness or we may experience a financial failure. Our ability to make scheduled payments on or to refinance our debt obligations, including the Notes, will depend on our financial and operating performance. If our cash flows and capital resources are insufficient to fund our debt service obligations, we may be forced to reduce or delay capital expenditures, sell assets or operations, seek additional capital or restructure or refinance our indebtedness, including the Notes. We may not be able to take any of these actions, these actions may not be successful and permit us to meet our scheduled debt service obligations and these actions may not be permitted under the terms of our future debt agreements. In the absence of sufficient operating results and resources, we could face substantial liquidity problems and might be required to dispose of material assets or operations to meet our debt service and other obligations. We may not be able to consummate those dispositions or obtain sufficient proceeds from those dispositions to meet our debt service and other obligations then due.Our current and future indebtedness could have negative consequences for our business, results of operations and financial condition by, among other things: • • • • • • increasing our vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions; limiting our ability to obtain additional financing; requiring the dedication of a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to service our indebtedness, which will reduce the amount of cash available for other purposes; limiting our flexibility to plan for, or react to, changes in our business; diluting the interests of our existing stockholders as a result of issuing shares of our common stock upon conversion of the Notes; and placing us at a possible competitive disadvantage with competitors that are less leveraged than us or have better access to capital. In addition, our credit facility contains, and any future indebtedness that we may incur may contain, restrictive covenants that limit our ability to operate our business, raise capital or make payments under our other indebtedness. If we fail to comply with these covenants or to make payments under our indebtedness when due, then we would be in default under that indebtedness, which could, in turn, result in that and our other indebtedness becoming immediately payable in full. 24 ITEM 1B.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS We are involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the results of litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not believe that the resolution of the proceedings that we are involved in, either individually or taken as a whole, will have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows or financial condition. In the normal course of our business, we are at times subject to pending and threatened legal actions, some for which the relief or damages sought may be substantial. Although we are not able to predict the outcome of such actions, after reviewing all pending and threatened actions with counsel and based on information currently available, management believes that the outcome of such actions, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the results of operations or financial position of our Company. However, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of such matters, if unfavorable, may be material to the results of operations in a particular future period as the time and amount of any resolution of such actions and its relationship to the future results of operations are not currently known. Liabilities are established for pending legal claims only when losses associated with the claims are judged to be probable, and the loss can be reasonably estimated. In many lawsuits and arbitrations, it is not considered probable that a liability has been incurred or not possible to estimate the ultimate or minimum amount of that liability until the case is close to resolution, in which case no liability would be recognized until that time. 27 ITEM 4.

[RESERVED] This item is no longer required as the Company has applied the amendment to Regulation S-K Item 301 contained in the Securities and Exchange Commission's Release No. 33-10890. 31 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Executive Overview We are a leading global technology solutions provider to high-value segments of the food and beverage industry with focus on proteins, diversified food and health and automated guided vehicle systems. We design, produce, and service sophisticated products and systems for multi-national and regional customers through our FoodTech segment. We also sell critical equipment and services to domestic and international air transportation customers through our AeroTech segment. Our Elevate plan was designed to capitalize on the leadership position of our businesses and favorable macroeconomic trends. The Elevate plan is based on a four-pronged approach to deliver continued growth and margin expansion. • • • Accelerate New Product & Service Development. We are accelerating the development of innovative products and services to provide customers with solutions that enhance yield and productivity and reduce lifetime cost of ownership. Grow Recurring Revenue. We are capitalizing on our extensive installed base to expand recurring revenue from aftermarket parts and services, equipment leases, consumables and our Airport Services offerings. Execute Impact Initiatives. We are enhancing organic growth through initiatives that enable us to sell the entire FoodTech portfolio globally, including enhancing our international sales and support infrastructure, localizing targeted products for emerging markets, and strategic cross selling of products. In AeroTech, we plan to continue to develop advanced defense product offering and customer support capability to service global defense customers. Additionally, our impact initiatives are designed to support the reduction in operating costs including strategic sourcing, relentless continuous improvement (lean) efforts, and the optimization of organizational structure. • Maintain a Disciplined Acquisition Program. We are also continuing our strategic acquisition program focused on companies that add complementary products, which enable us to offer more comprehensive solutions to customers, and meet our strict economic criteria for returns and synergies. We operate under the JBT Operating System which provides a level of process rigor across the Company and is designed to standardize and streamline reporting and problem resolution processes for increased visibility, efficiency, effectiveness and productivity in all business units. Our approach to Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance (ESG) builds on our culture and long tradition of concern for our employees’ health, safety, and well-being; partnering with our customers to find ways to make better use of the earth’s precious resources; and giving back to the communities where we live and work. Our FoodTech equipment and technologies continue to deliver quality performance while striving to minimize food waste, extend food product life, and maximize efficiency in order to create shared value for our food and beverage customers. Our AeroTech equipment business offers a variety of power options, including electrically powered ground support equipment, that help customers meet their environmental objectives.We recognize the responsibility we have to make a positive impact on our shareholders, the environment and our communities in a manner that is consistent with our fiduciary duties. We have engaged in structured education for enhancing inclusive leadership skills in our organization designed to ensure more diversity in our leadership and hiring practices. We have completed a comprehensive evaluation to determine which ESG topics are most pressing for our business resulting in a materiality matrix informing our development of an ESG strategy, balanced to ensure we invest responsibly in initiatives that can address the risks and opportunities presented by ESG. We evaluate our operating results considering key performance indicators including segment operating profit, segment operating profit margin, segment EBITDA (adjusted when appropriate) and segment EBITDA margins. 32 Business Conditions and Outlook In terms of top–line growth, the commercial environment in 2021 was characterized by a robust demand for our goods and services in most geographical regions. Higher demand in FoodTech is driven by customer needs for greater capacity, labor savings, and new product introductions. On the AeroTech side, we continue to experience a slower recovery, as expected, however we believe we are moving in a positive direction. We are not expecting full recovery for AeroTech to pre-pandemic level until the year 2023, at the earliest. Looking ahead, we anticipate revenue growth to be consistent and solid through 2022 due to continued momentum in overall customer demand for our products and services and a record backlog entering into 2022. Despite significant growth in our revenues, our operating margins declined due to the unprecedented challenges associated with supply chain disruptions, high inflation, and labor availability affecting both FoodTech and AeroTech. Unlike in the past, where our JBT operating system enabled us to plan and optimize production efficiency, supply chain disruptions and labor shortages meant we often had to stop and start production based on availability. We expect that these trends will continue into 2022 as we anticipate further disruptions, shortages and price increases - the effect of which will depend in part on our ability to successfully mitigate and offset the impact of these events. Thus far, actions taken by us to mitigate supply chain disruptions and inflation, including productivity improvements, expanding our supplier network, and price increases, have generally been successful in offsetting some, but not all, of the impact of these trends. Additionally, we have continued to enhance our internal operating efficiency with the ongoing benefits of our restructuring program. Impact of COVID-19 on our Business The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted and is expected to continue to result in significant economic disruption, and our business has been adversely affected as a result. While we have seen and expect to continue to see positive signs of economic recovery, the following uncertainties still exist and may contribute to additional negative impacts on our overall financial results, particularly if there is a significant resurgence of COVID-19 infections in locations where we or our customers operate: • • • • • • our ability to obtain raw material and required components from domestic and international suppliers required to manufacture our products and provide services; our ability to efficiently operate our facilities and meet customer obligations due to modified employee work patterns resulting from social distancing guidelines, absence due to illness and cautionary quarantines and/or government ordered closures, or due to labor shortages; our ability to secure inbound and outbound logistics to and from our facilities, with additional delays linked to international border crossings and the associated approvals and documentation; our ability to access customer locations in order to execute installations, new product deliveries, maintenance and repair services; limitations on the ability of our customers to conduct their business, and resulting impacts to our customers' purchasing patterns, from food and travel disruption, social distancing guidelines, absence due to illness or government ordered closures; and limitations on the ability of our customers to meet their financial obligations to JBT. As a result of the global COVID-19 related restrictions and social distancing requirements that have continued from 2020 through 2021, the food industry continues to experience a notable rise in retail demand. In addition, with these global health restrictions lifting in certain parts of the world as a result of decreased infection rates and political pressures, foodservice continues to revitalize as restaurants reopen and travel increases. These increases in demand, however promising, are dependent on the continued trend towards reopening which can be negatively impacted by new variants, such as the omicron variant first identified in November 2021, and a resulting increase in COVID-19 infections and hospitalizations. As there continues to be uncertainty, the pace of recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic remains unpredictable. As FoodTech customers are present in both the retail and foodservice channels, the shifts in demand have and may continue to create volatility and uncertainty in our customer's purchasing patterns. However, in the fourth quarter of 2021, our inbound FoodTech orders increased by 25% compared to the same period in 2020 as we continued to see positive recovery specifically for food processors in the quick service restaurant businesses, those servicing the sustained "eat-at-home" trend and ready meals, as well as capital investments continuing to ramp back up for our foodservice and pet food customers. Our customers appear to be investing more to support these trends, addressing immediate capacity needs and creating strong interest in FoodTech's broad product offerings. This is the fourth consecutive quarter of year over year improvement in orders for the FoodTech segment, a positive indicator of recovery in the industry. Despite these improvements, we expect that continued supply chain challenges as well as labor shortages that have impacted many of our markets will continue to drive delays and inefficiencies in our production process and offset some of these improvements 33 in orders. In addition to the above considerations, although the pandemic continues to have negative impacts on our results of operations in FoodTech, we believe it has accelerated the demand for automation solutions, increased focus on food safety and hygiene requirements and lead to innovation to respond to changes in consumer preferences. Furthermore, recurring revenue for the FoodTech segment has increased 10% year over year. This improvement is driven largely by the continued increase in demand across the foodservice industry noted above, price increases as well as sustained operations within the food processing companies requiring critical maintenance and parts. For AeroTech, a large portion of our revenue depends on the passenger airline industry. Passenger air travel continues to increase from 2020 levels with declining infection rates and reopening of travel routes. Activity at US airports continued to increase during the third and fourth quarters compared to the prior year, driving improving demand for our equipment and services. However, global passenger traffic continues to be well below pre-pandemic levels which directly impact our mobile equipment business. We are not expecting full recovery for AeroTech to pre-pandemic level until the year 2023, at the earliest . Although our projections are subject to more uncertainty than in pre-pandemic periods, we expect higher demand and inbound orders for these products in the year 2022. During the fourth quarter, supply chain disruptions and labor shortages continued to drive shipment delays, operational inefficiencies, and higher material, labor and freight costs which reduced AeroTech's profitability. However, with the ongoing benefits of cost controls including restructuring, as well as the diversity of revenue streams within the business, AeroTech remained profitable despite these headwinds with further improvement in its profitability expected in the year 2022. Specifically for aftermarket revenue streams within the AeroTech segment, we have begun to see recovery in demand as equipment utilization increases for our customers in line with air traffic demand. While aftermarket revenue during the fourth quarter of 2021 was lower by 4.5% compared to third quarter of 2021, it was higher by 15.3% on a year over year basis compared to the fourth quarter of 2020. We note, however, that these improvements may not continue if a broader resurgence in COVID-19 cases causes broader restrictions to be reinstated. Furthermore, while an outbreak of COVID-19 in any of our production manufacturing facilities could lead to a temporary shut-down that may negatively impact our results, there are no significant concentrations of our operations across our manufacturing facilities such that a short-term single plant closure would be expected to have a material impact to our consolidated results. Although we cannot reasonably estimate the duration and severity, or potential for resurgence, of these COVID-19 related events or the continued impact pandemic will have on the global economy or our business, we believe that our positive order trends, improving revenues and strong balance sheet and cash flows will allow us to emerge from these events well-positioned for long-term growth. Our Strategy to Mitigate Impacts of COVID-19 As we manage through these uncertainties, our focus is on obtaining orders, maintaining disciplined working capital management, identifying ways to mitigate the supply chain disruptions, labor shortages and resulting inefficiencies, and investing in key growth strategies so that we can continue to execute our operating strategies as a critical supplier to the essential food and air transportation industries. As of the date of this filing, all of our factories and warehouses are operational. We continue to maintain protocols under the guidance of our Crisis Response Team to protect the health and safety of our workers in our facilities, including daily symptoms screening for clearance to work, social distancing requirements in our workplaces, face covering requirements where social distancing is not possible, facilitation of work from home arrangements for our employees who can perform work functions remotely, and global travel restrictions consistent with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and local government guidelines. We are evaluating our options to source and manage COVID testing at our facilities in order to assist our employees' efforts to remain healthy and reduce absenteeism. Our Crisis Response Team issues frequent guidance to our managers and employees to reinforce these protocols and policies which are designed to keep our employees safe, maintain our business operations, and allow us to effectively and efficiently manage through positive COVID cases and potential shut downs in our facilities. Furthermore, we are providing enhanced remote support options and extended hours to our customers to support them through the disruption caused by the pandemic. We will continue to actively monitor the situation and may take further actions that alter our business operations as may be required by federal, state or local authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees and our other stakeholders. 34 Non-GAAP Financial Measures The results for the periods ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 include several items that affect the comparability of our results. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain amounts that are included in a measure calculated under U.S. GAAP, or include certain amounts that are excluded from a measure calculated under U.S. GAAP. By excluding or including these items, we believe we provide greater transparency into our operating results and trends, and a more meaningful comparison of our ongoing operating results, consistent with how management evaluates performance. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in financial and operational evaluation, planning and forecasting. The adjustments generally fall within the following categories: restructuring costs, M&A related costs, pension-related costs, constant currency adjustments and other major items affecting comparability of our ongoing operating results. The non-GAAP financial measures presented in this report may differ from similarly-titled measures used by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be used as a substitute for, nor should they be considered in isolation of, financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Additional details for each Non-GAAP financial measure follow: • • • • • Free cash flow: We define free cash flow as cash provided by continuing operating activities, less capital expenditures, plus proceeds from sale of fixed assets and pension contributions. For free cash flow purposes we consider contributions to pension plans to be more comparable to payment of debt, and therefore exclude these contributions from the calculation of free cash flow. We use free cash flow internally as a key indicator of our liquidity and ability to service debt, invest in business combinations, and return money to shareholders. We believe this information is useful to investors because it provides an understanding of the cash available to fund these initiatives. Adjusted income from continuing operations and Adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations: We adjust earnings for restructuring and merger and acquisition related costs, which include integration costs and the amortization of inventory step-up from business combinations, earnout adjustments to fair value, transaction costs for both potential and completed M&A transactions (“M&A related costs”), management succession costs, and the impacts from remeasurements of deferred taxes. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA: We define EBITDA as earnings before income taxes, interest expense and depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA before restructuring, pension expense other than service cost, M&A related costs, and management succession costs. While the Company's acquired intangible assets and fixed assets contribute to generation of our revenue, management believes that due to the Company's focus on growth through acquisitions EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA facilitate an evaluation of business performance by excluding the impact of amortization and depreciation, and, in the case of Adjusted EBITDA, without the fluctuations in the amount of certain costs that do not reflect our underlying operating results. We use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA internally to make operating decisions and believe this information is helpful to investors because it allows more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of our ongoing operating results. Segment Adjusted Operating Profit and Segment Adjusted EBITDA: We report segment operating profit, which is the measure of segment profit or loss required to be disclosed in accordance with GAAP. We adjust segment operating profit for restructuring, and M&A related costs. We calculate segment Adjusted EBITDA by subtracting depreciation and amortization from segment adjusted operating profit. We believe segment adjusted operating profit allows more meaningful period-to period comparisons of our ongoing operating results, without the fluctuations in the amount of certain costs that do not reflect our underlying operating results. We calculate segment Adjusted EBITDA by subtracting depreciation and amortization from segment adjusted operating profit. While Company's acquired intangible assets and fixed assets contribute to generation of Company's revenue, management believes that due to the Company's focus on growth through acquisitions segment Adjusted EBITDA facilitates an evaluation of business segment performance by excluding the impact of amortization due to the step up in value of intangible assets and depreciation of fixed assets. Constant currency measures: We evaluate our results of operations on both an as reported and a constant currency basis. The constant currency presentation excludes the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We calculate constant currency percentages by converting our financial results in local currency for a period using the average exchange rate for the prior period to which we are comparing. 35 In the third quarter of 2020, we adjusted certain of our non-GAAP financial measures for management succession costs. We are excluding these succession costs from certain non-GAAP financial measures because they are not part of our regular compensation program, and we believe that excluding the effects of costs associated with the recruiting and implementing transition of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer positions allows more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of our ongoing operating results. Refer to Note 20. Management Succession Costs of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information about management succession costs incurred during the year 2020.

The constant currency presentation is a non- GAAP financial measure, which excludes the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We believe providing constant currency information provides valuable supplemental information regarding our results of operations, consistent with how we evaluate our performance. We calculate constant currency percentages by converting our financial results in local currency for a period using the average exchange rate for the prior period to which we are comparing. This calculation may differ from similarly- titled measures used by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are not intended to nor should they be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. 38 Results of Continuing Operations A discussion of our results of operations for 2021 compared to 2020 is set forth below. For a discussion of our results of operations, including our segment results of operations, for 2020 compared to 2019, refer to the discussion under the sub-caption "2020 Compared With 2019" in Item 7 – Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10–K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, which discussion is incorporated by reference herein. CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Year Ended December 31, 2021 2020 Favorable / (Unfavorable) Change % Change (In millions) Revenue Cost of sales Gross profit Gross Profit % Selling, general and administrative expense Restructuring expense Operating income Operating income % Pension (income) expense, other than service cost Interest expense, net Income from continuing operations before income taxes Income tax provision Income from continuing operations Net income 2021 Compared With 2020 401.1 5.6 160.1 8.6 % (1.3) 8.7 152.7 34.3 118.4 118.4 $ $ $ 1,868.3 $ 1,727.8 $ 1,301.5 566.8 1,194.1 533.7 30.3 % 30.9 % 140.5 (107.4) 33.1 -60 bps (42.6) 6.5 (3.0) 358.5 12.1 163.1 9.4 % -80 bps 3.7 13.9 145.5 36.7 108.8 108.8 $ 5.0 5.2 7.2 2.4 9.6 9.6 8.1 % (9.0) % 6.2 % (11.9) % 53.7 % (1.8) % 135.1 % 37.4 % 4.9 % 6.5 % 8.8 % 8.8 % Total revenue in 2021 increased $140.5 million compared to 2020. This is an 8% increase, with a 5% growth in organic revenue, a 2% gain from acquisitions and a 1% gain from foreign currency translation. Organic revenue growth resulted from higher equipment revenue for FoodTech and higher recurring revenue across both segments, partially offset by lower equipment revenue for AeroTech due to delays in shipments caused by supply chain issues and labor shortages. Operating income margin was 8.6% in 2021 compared to 9.4% in 2020, a decrease of 80 bps, and was caused by the following items: • Gross profit margin decreased 60 bps to 30.3% compared to 30.9% in 2020. This decrease was driven by a higher mix of revenue from the faster growing equipment revenue stream for FoodTech as compared to the higher margin recurring revenue streams across both segments. In addition, margins were negatively impacted by supply chain disruptions, labor availability, and resulting inefficiencies driving increases in material, freight and labor costs. Selling, general and administrative expense increased $42.6 million from prior year, and as a percent of revenue increased 80 bps to 21.5% compared to 20.7% for 2020. This was due to an increase in M&A related costs, incentive compensation expense, wage increases and the return of variable costs that were reduced in the prior year as a result of the impact of COVID-19, all of which were partially offset by our ability to better leverage fixed costs as volumes increased year over year. Restructuring expense decreased $6.5 million. As a percent of revenue, these expenses have decreased 40 bps to 0.3% compared to 0.7% for 2020. Currency translation increased operating income by $2.5 million. • • • Pension expense, other than service cost decreased by $5.0 million resulting from a lower interest cost on pension obligations and a higher than expected return on pension assets. Interest expense decreased $5.2 million resulting from lower interest rates, primarily due to issuance of convertible notes in May 2021 and lower average debt levels compared to 2020. Income tax expense for 2021 reflected an effective income tax rate of 22.4% compared to 25.1% in 2020. 39 Restructuring In the first quarter of 2018, the Company implemented a restructuring plan ("2018 restructuring plan") to address its global processes, flatten the organization, improve efficiency and better leverage general and administrative resources primarily within the JBT FoodTech segment. We recognized cumulative restructuring charges of $62.2 million, net of cumulative releases of the related liability of $11.9 million. We completed this plan in the third quarter of 2020. In the first quarter of 2020, the Company implemented an immaterial restructuring plan primarily within the JBT AeroTech segment. Through December 31, 2020, we recognized restructuring charges of $2.4 million related to severance, net of a cumulative release of the related liability of $0.2 million. We completed this plan during the third quarter 2020. In the third quarter of 2020, the Company implemented a restructuring plan ("2020 restructuring plan") for manufacturing capacity rationalization affecting both the JBT FoodTech and JBT AeroTech segments. During the third quarter 2021, we revised our total estimated costs in connection with this plan, with the original estimate of $9 million to $10 million for FoodTech to be recognized by end of the year 2022, to a range of $10 million to $11 million to be completed by second quarter of 2022. These changes are due to a delay in transfer of the manufacturing process under this plan. The total estimated cost for AeroTech in connection with this plan is approximately $6 million. We recognized restructuring charges of $17.2 million, net of a cumulative release of the related liability of $1.5 million, through December 31, 2021. The following table details the cumulative amount of annualized and incremental savings for the 2020 restructuring plan: Cumulative Amount Incremental Amount As of December 31, 2020 During the quarter ended March 31, 2021 During the quarter ended June 30, 2021 During the quarter ended September 30, 2021 During the quarter ended December 31, 2021 Cumulative Amount As of December 31, 2021 (In millions) Cost of sales Selling, general and administrative Total restructuring savings $ $ 0.5 $ 0.2 0.7 $ 0.8 $ 0.2 1.0 $ 1.3 $ 0.4 1.7 $ 1.3 $ 0.5 1.8 $ 1.1 $ 0.6 1.7 $ For the 2020 restructuring plan, incremental cost savings we expect to realize during the year 2022 are as follows: (In millions) Cost of sales Selling, general and administrative Total expected incremental cost savings 2022 (est.) $ $ For additional financial information about restructuring, refer to Note 19.

Business Segments of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Segment operating profit is defined as total segment revenue less segment operating expense. Corporate expense, restructuring expense, interest income and expense and income taxes are not allocated to the segments. Corporate expense generally includes corporate staff-related expense, stock-based compensation, LIFO adjustments, certain foreign currency- related gains and losses, and the impact of unusual or strategic events not representative of segment operations. JBT FoodTech 2021 Compared With 2020 FoodTech revenue increased by $165.9 million or 13% for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to 2020. Organic revenue grew $111.9 million in the period, revenue from acquisitions grew $29.3 million, and favorable foreign currency translation provided an additional $24.7 million in revenue year over year. Equipment revenue represented 74% of the organic revenue growth on a constant currency basis, with $83.1 million of additional revenue in the year compared to 2020. Recurring revenue drove the remaining increase of $28.8 million. FoodTech operating profit increased $16.4 million, or 10%, year over year for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to 2020. Gross profit margins declined ~90 bps year over year contributing to a lower operating profit margin of 13.4% in 2021 compared to 13.8% in the prior year. Operating and gross profit margins declined in 2021 compared to 2020 despite revenue growth due largely to supply chain disruptions and pressures resulting in inefficiencies that drove increases in material, freight, and labor costs. Decline in these margins also reflect a higher mix of revenue from the faster growing equipment revenue stream as compared to the higher margin recurring revenue streams, with recurring revenue dropping from 49.5% to 48% of total revenue. Selling, general and 41 administrative expense increased $32.1 million from prior year, but as a percent of revenue remained flat at ~21% in both the current and prior year. Currency translation increased operating income by $3.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. JBT AeroTech 2021 Compared With 2020 JBT AeroTech's revenue declined $25.8 million compared to 2020, which represents a 5% decrease. The reduction was comprised of a $34.9 million decline from our fixed equipment business and a $3.5 million decline in our mobile equipment business partially offset by a $10.6 million increase from our service business. The decline in our fixed equipment business was primarily due to supply chain issues, labor shortages and customer related delays partially offset by an increase in aftermarket sales. The decline in our mobile equipment business was primarily due to supply chain delays partially offset by an increase in aftermarket sales. The increase in service revenue was a result of an increase in service hours on our maintenance contracts as activity at US airports began to increase as a result of the elimination of customer-imposed service hour reductions relating to COVID-19 compared to the prior year. The impact of currency translation resulted in a $2.0 million increase in revenues compared to 2020. JBT AeroTech’s operating profit declined $20.3 million compared to 2020. Operating profit margin was 7.0% compared to 10.7% in the prior year, reflecting a decline of 370 bps. Gross profit margins decreased 170 bps driven by higher material, labor and freight costs and lost leverage of fixed manufacturing costs as a result of lower revenue partially offset by a favorable mix of aftermarket revenues. Selling, general and administrative expenses in 2021 were $7.1 million above 2020 which is an increase of 15%. The increase in 2021 was mostly due to wage increases and the return of variable costs that were reduced in the prior year as a result of the impact of COVID-19. Currency translation had an immaterial impact. Corporate Expense 2021 Compared With 2020 Corporate expense increased by $5.6 million compared to 2020, driven primarily by higher M&A related costs and incentive compensation expense, both of which were reduced in the prior year as a result of the impact of COVID-19 pandemic. The increase was partially offset by lower costs relating to management succession costs incurred only in the prior year. Corporate expense as a percent of revenues increased slightly to 2.9% in 2021 compared to 2.8% in 2020. Inbound Orders and Order Backlog Inbound orders represent the estimated sales value of confirmed customer orders received during the years ended December 31, (In millions) JBT FoodTech JBT AeroTech Other Total inbound orders 2021 2020 $ 1,620.1 $ 552.9 0.4 2,173.4 $ $ 1,252.7 475.1 — 1,727.8 Order backlog is calculated as the estimated sales value of unfilled, confirmed customer orders as of December 31, (In millions) JBT FoodTech JBT AeroTech Total order backlog 2021 2020 $ $ 635.0 $ 371.7 1,006.7 $ 426.5 286.9 713.4 Order backlog in our JBT FoodTech segment at December 31, 2021 increased by $208.5 million compared to December 31, 2020. We expect to convert 90% of JBT FoodTech backlog at December 31, 2021 into revenue during 2022. Order backlog in our JBT AeroTech segment at December 31, 2021 increased by $84.8 million compared to December 31, 2020. We expect to convert 89% of the JBT AeroTech backlog at December 31, 2021 into revenue during 2022. 42 Seasonality We experience seasonality in our operating results. Historically, our revenues and operating income have been lower in the first quarter and highest in the fourth quarter, primarily as a result of our customers' purchasing trends. Liquidity and Capital Resources Overview of Sources and Uses of Cash Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows provided by operating activities from our U.S. and foreign operations, borrowings from our revolving credit facility, and proceeds from the issuance of the convertible notes on May 28, 2021. We used a portion of the net proceeds from the convertible notes to pay the net cost of the convertible note hedge and the warrant transactions, and to partially pay down our borrowings under our revolving credit facility. We have used the remaining net proceeds from the convertible notes for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions. As of December 31, 2021, we had $78.8 million of cash and cash equivalents, $42.4 million of which was held by our foreign subsidiaries. Although certain funds are considered permanently invested in our foreign subsidiaries, we are not presently aware of any restriction on the repatriation of these funds. We maintain significant operations outside of the U.S., and many of our uses of cash for working capital, capital expenditures and business acquisitions arise in these foreign jurisdictions. If these funds were needed to fund our operations or satisfy obligations in the U.S., they could be repatriated and their repatriation into the U.S. could cause us to incur additional U.S. income tax and foreign withholding taxes. The foreign withholding taxes on these repatriations to the U.S. would potentially be partially offset by U.S. foreign tax credits. As noted above, certain funds held outside of the U.S. are considered permanently invested in our non-U.S. subsidiaries. At times, these foreign subsidiaries have cash balances that exceed their immediate working capital or other cash needs. In these circumstances, the foreign subsidiaries may loan funds to the U.S. parent company on a temporary basis; the U.S. parent company has in the past and may in the future use the proceeds of these temporary intercompany loans to reduce outstanding borrowings under our committed credit facilities. By using available non-U.S. cash to repay our debt on a short-term basis, we can optimize our leverage ratio, which has the effect of lowering our interest costs. Under Internal Revenue Service (IRS) guidance, no incremental tax liability is incurred on the proceeds of these loans as long as each individual loan has a term of 30 days or less and all such loans from each subsidiary are outstanding for a total of less than 60 days during the year. During 2021, any such loan was outstanding for less than 30 days, and all such loans were outstanding for less than 60 days in the aggregate. We used the proceeds of these intercompany loans to reduce outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility. We may choose to access such funds again in the future to the extent they are available and can be transferred without significant cost, and use them on a temporary basis to repay outstanding borrowings or for other corporate purposes, but intend to do so only as allowed under this IRS guidance. There were no amounts outstanding subject to this IRS guidance at December 31, 2021. For the year ended December 31, 2021, we had total operating cash flow of $225.7 million and $190.4 million in free cash flow, which includes $5.1 million in benefits from deferred payroll tax payments under the CARES Act. Our liquidity as of December 31, 2021, or cash plus borrowing ability under our revolving credit facilities was $702.5 million. Increase in our liquidity year over year was in part due to structural changes in the leverage calculation of our credit facility, modified in the fourth quarter of 2021, that has allowed us increased access to the capacity under our secured credit facility. Furthermore, our liquidity improved resulting from lower borrowing required from our secured credit facility as of December 31, 2021, due to our funding requirements met by the issuance of unsecured convertible notes in May 2021. The cash flows generated by our operations and borrowings are expected to be sufficient to satisfy our principal cash requirements that include our working capital needs, new product development, restructuring expenses, capital expenditures, income taxes, debt repayments, dividends, periodic pension contributions, payments under the CARES Act for payroll tax deferral, and other financing arrangements. Based on our current capital allocation objectives, during 2022 we anticipate capital expenditures to be between $90 million and $95 million, which includes about $45 million of capitalized investment in our digital strategy. Our level of capital expenditures varies from time to time as a result of actual and anticipated business conditions. The increase in our capital expenditure year over year is due to our limited capital spending in prior year as part of our strategy to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on our liquidity, as well as higher current and anticipated capital spending driven, in part, by strategic investments in our digital capabilities. We believe JBT's strong balance sheet, operating cash flows, and access to capital as of December 31, 2021 positions us to successfully navigate through the challenging economic conditions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic as we continue to invest in growth strategies including our acquisition program and new product development. 43 Contractual Obligations The following is a summary of our significant contractual obligations at December 31, 2021: (In millions) Long-term debt (a) Interest payments on long-term debt (b) Operating leases (c) Pension and other postretirement benefits (d) Total contractual obligations Total payments Current Long-Term $ $ 685.4 $ — $ 24.8 39.0 195.3 5.1 11.3 17.5 944.5 $ 33.9 $ 685.4 19.7 27.7 177.8 910.6 (a) (b) (c) (d) A summary of our long-term debt obligations as of December 31, 2021 can be found in Note 6, “Debt”, of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Interest payments were determined using the weighted average rates for all debt outstanding as of December 31, 2021. A summary of our operating lease obligations as of December 31, 2021 can be found in Note 17, “Leases”, of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. This amount reflects planned contributions in 2022 to our pension plans. Required contributions for future years depend on factors that cannot be determined at this time. We also have outstanding firm purchase orders with certain suppliers for the purchase of raw materials and services, which are not included in the table above. These purchase orders are generally short-term in nature and include a requirement that our supplier provide products or services to our specifications and require us to make a firm purchase commitment to our supplier. The costs associated with these agreements will be reflected in cost of sales on our Consolidated Statements of Income as substantially all of these commitments are associated with purchases made to fulfill our customers’ orders. The following is a summary of other off-balance sheet arrangements at December 31, 2021: (In millions) Letters of credit and bank guarantees Surety bonds Total other off-balance sheet arrangements Total amount $ $ 27.9 117.4 145.3 $ $ Current Long-Term 11.1 $ 55.8 66.9 $ 16.8 61.6 78.4 To provide required security regarding our performance on certain contracts, we provide letters of credit, surety bonds and bank guarantees, for which we are contingently liable. In order to obtain these financial instruments, we pay fees to various financial institutions in amounts competitively determined in the marketplace. Our ability to generate revenue from certain contracts is dependent upon our ability to obtain these off-balance sheet financial instruments. Our off-balance sheet financial instruments may be renewed, revised or released based on changes in the underlying commitment. Historically, our commercial commitments have not been drawn upon to a material extent; consequently, management believes it is not likely that there will be claims against these commitments that would result in a negative impact on our key financial ratios or our ability to obtain financing. Cash Flows Cash flows for each of the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 were as follows: (In millions) Cash provided by continuing operating activities Cash required by investing activities Cash provided (required) by financing activities Effect of foreign exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents Increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents 2021 2020 $ $ 225.7 $ (272.9) 80.8 (2.3) 31.3 $ 252.0 (37.3) (207.4) 0.7 8.0 44 2021 Compared with 2020 Cash provided by continuing operating activities in 2021 was $225.7 million, representing a $26.3 million decrease compared to 2020. This decrease was driven primarily by a higher investment in inventory and an increase in outstanding trade receivables. These were partially offset by higher customer collections of advance payments and an increase in accounts payable. Cash required by investing activities during 2021 was $272.9 million, representing a $235.6 million increase compared to 2020, primarily due to increased acquisition and capital expenditure spending year over year. Cash provided by financing activities of $80.8 million in 2021 was primarily due to net proceeds from the issuance of the convertible notes, bond hedge and warrant transactions, partially offset by paying down borrowings under our revolving credit facility and the payment of acquisition date earn-out liability. Cash required by financing activities of $207.4 million in 2020 was primarily due to paying down our borrowings under the domestic credit facility in 2020. Financing Arrangements As of December 31, 2021 we had $282.9 million drawn on and $1,009.4 million of availability under the revolving credit facility. Our ability to use this availability is limited by the restrictive covenants described below. Our credit agreement includes restrictive covenants that, if not met, could lead to a renegotiation of our credit lines, a requirement to repay our borrowings and/or a significant increase in our cost of financing. Restrictive covenants include a minimum interest coverage ratio, a maximum leverage ratio, as well as certain events of default. As of December 31, 2021, we were in compliance with all covenants in our credit agreement. We expect to remain in compliance with all covenants in the foreseeable future. However, there can be no assurance that continued or increased volatility in global economic conditions will not impair our ability to meet our covenants, or that we will continue to be able to access the capital and credit markets on terms acceptable to us or at all. On May 28, 2021, we closed a private offering of $402.5 million aggregate principal amount of the Company's 0.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 (the "Notes") to qualified institutional buyers, resulting in net proceeds to us of approximately $392.2 million after deducting initial purchasers’ discounts. The Notes will mature on May 15, 2026 unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. Concurrently with the issuance of the Notes, we entered into the Note hedge transactions that reduce potential dilution upon conversion of the Notes and into the warrant transactions to raise additional capital to partially offset the costs of entering into the Note hedge transactions. For additional information about our credit agreement, Notes, convertible note hedge and warrant transactions, refer to Note 6. Debt of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. As of December 31, 2021, we have four interest rate swaps executed in March 2020 with a combined notional amount of $200 million expiring in April 2025, and one interest rate swap executed in May 2020 with a notional amount of $50 million expiring in May 2025. We have designated these swaps as cash flow hedges and all changes in fair value of the swaps are recognized in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). As a result, as of December 31, 2021, a portion of our variable rate debt was effectively fixed rate debt subject to an average fixed rate of 0.82%, while approximately $32.9 million, or 11%, remained subject to floating or market rates. To the extent interest rates increase in future periods, our earnings could be negatively impacted by higher interest expense. Critical Accounting Estimates We prepare our consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. As such, we are required to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions about matters that are inherently uncertain. On an ongoing basis, our management re-evaluates these estimates, judgments and assumptions for reasonableness because of the critical impact that these factors have on the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the periods presented. Management has discussed the development and selection of these critical accounting estimates with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors, and the Audit Committee has reviewed this disclosure. We believe that the following are the critical accounting estimates used in preparing our financial statements. 45 Intangible Asset Valuation Accounting for business combinations requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions at the acquisition date specifically for the valuation of intangible assets. We use the multi-period excess earnings method to determine the fair value of the customer relationships and the relief-from-royalty approach to determine the fair value of the tradename and proprietary technology. Critical estimates and assumptions in valuing certain of the intangible assets we have acquired include, but are not limited to, forecasted revenue growth rates, EBITDA margins, discount rates, customer attrition rates and royalty rates. The discount rates used to discount expected future cash flows to present value are typically derived from a weighted-average cost of capital analysis and adjusted to reflect inherent risks. Unanticipated events and circumstances may occur that could affect either the accuracy or validity of such assumptions, estimates or actual results. Sensitivities related to acquisition of CMS Technology, Inc ("Prevenio") The valuation of Prevenio's intangible assets were based in part on the key assumptions of customer attrition rate and discount rate for customer relationship intangible assets, and royalty rate for patents and acquired technology intangible assets. The customer attrition rate was selected based on historical experience and information obtained from Prevenio's management. An increase or decrease of 250 basis points in the customer attrition rate would result in a decrease of $6 million or an increase of $8 million, respectively, in the value of Prevenio's customer relationship intangible assets. Additionally, a change in the discount rate of 100 basis points would result in a change of $3 million in the value of Prevenio's customer relationship intangible assets. The royalty rate used in the valuation of Prevenio's patents and acquired technology intangible asset was based on a detailed analysis considering the importance of the technology to the overall enterprise and market royalty data. An increase or decrease of 20% in the royalty rate would result in an increase of $3.5 million or a decrease of $4 million, respectively, in the valuation of these assets. Revenue Recognition We recognize a large portion of our product revenue over time, for contracts that provide highly customized equipment and refurbishments of customer-owned equipment for which we have a contractual, enforceable right to collect payment upon customer cancellation for performance completed to date. We utilize the input method of “cost-to-cost” to recognize revenue over time which requires that we measure progress based on costs incurred to date relative to total estimated cost at completion. These cost estimates are based on assumptions and estimates to project the outcome of future events including estimated labor and material costs required to complete open projects. Defined Benefit Pension Plans The measurement of pension plans’ costs requires the use of assumptions for discount rates, investment returns, employee turnover rates, retirement rates, mortality rates and other factors. The actuarial assumptions used in our pension reporting are reviewed annually and compared with external benchmarks to ensure that they appropriately account for our future pension and post-retirement benefit obligations. While we believe that the assumptions used are appropriate, differences between assumed and actual experience may affect our operating results. Our accrued pension liability reflects the funded status of our worldwide plans, or the projected benefit obligation net of plan assets. Our discount rate assumption is determined by developing a yield curve based on high quality corporate bonds with maturities matching the plan’s expected benefit payment streams. The plans’ expected cash flows are then discounted by the resulting year-by- year spot rates. The projected benefit obligation is sensitive to changes in our estimate of the discount rate. The discount rate used in calculating the projected benefit obligation for the U.S. pension plan, which represents 87% of all pension plan obligations, was 2.90% in 2021, 2.57% in 2020 and 3.28% 2019. A decrease of 50 basis points in the discount rate used in our calculation would increase our projected benefit obligation by $18.2 million. Our pension expense is sensitive to changes in our estimate of the expected rate of return on plan assets. The expected return on assets used in calculating the pension expense for the U.S. pension plan, which represents 96% of all pension plan assets, was 5.75% for 2021, 5.0% for 2020 and 5.75% for 2019. For 2022, the rate is expected to be 5.50%. A change of 50 basis points in the expected return on assets assumption would impact pension expense by $1.3 million (pre-tax). See Note 8. Pension and Post-Retirement and Other Benefit Plans of the notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data for additional discussion of our assumptions and the amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Recent Accounting Pronouncements For information with respect to recent accounting pronouncements and the impact of these pronouncements on our consolidated financial statements see Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. 46 ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK We are subject to financial market risks, including fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. In order to manage and mitigate our exposure to these risks, we may use derivative financial instruments in accordance with established policies and procedures. We do not use derivative financial instruments where the objective is to generate profits solely from trading activities. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, our derivative holdings consisted of foreign currency forward contracts and foreign currency instruments embedded in purchase and sale contracts and interest rate swap contracts. These forward-looking disclosures address potential impacts from market risks only as they affect our financial instruments. They do not include other potential effects resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, commodity prices or equity prices that could impact our business. Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk During 2021, our foreign subsidiaries generated 34% of our revenue. Financial statements of our foreign subsidiaries for which the U.S. dollar is not the functional currency are translated into U.S. dollars. As a result, we are exposed to foreign currency translation risk. When we sell or purchase products or services, transactions are frequently denominated in currencies other than an operation’s functional currency. As a result, we are exposed to foreign currency transaction risk. When foreign currency exposures exist, we may enter into foreign exchange forward instruments with third parties to economically hedge foreign currency exposures. Our hedging policy reduces, but does not entirely eliminate, the impact of foreign currency exchange rate movements. We do not apply hedge accounting for our foreign currency forward instruments. We economically hedge our recognized foreign currency assets and liabilities to reduce the risk that our earnings and cash flows will be adversely affected by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We expect any gains or losses in the hedging portfolio to be substantially offset by a corresponding gain or loss in the underlying exposures being hedged. We also economically hedge firmly committed anticipated transactions in the normal course of business. As these are not offset by an underlying balance sheet position being hedged, our earnings can be significantly impacted on a periodic basis by the change in the unrealized value of these hedges. We use a sensitivity analysis to measure the impact of an immediate 10% adverse movement in the foreign currency exchange rates. This calculation assumes that each exchange rate would change in the same direction relative to the U.S. dollar and all other variables are held constant. We expect that changes in the fair value of derivative instruments will offset the changes in fair value of the underlying assets and liabilities on the balance sheet. A 10% adverse movement in the foreign currency exchange rates would reduce the value of our derivative instruments by $9.7 million (pre-tax) as of December 31, 2021. This amount would be reflected in our net income but would be significantly offset by the changes in the fair value of the underlying hedged assets and liabilities. In July 2018, we entered into a series of cross-currency swaps with an aggregate notional of $116.4 million (€100 million) to hedge the currency exchange component of net investments in certain foreign subsidiaries. The aggregate fair value of these swaps was an asset position of $5.5 million at December 31, 2021. We use a sensitivity analysis to measure the impact of an immediate 10% adverse movement in the foreign currency exchange rates underlying these swaps. A hypothetical 10% adverse movement in the currency exchange rates underlying these swaps from the market rate at December 31, 2021 would have resulted in a loss in value of the swaps by $11.3 million. Market Risk and Interest Rate Risk Our borrowings from the revolving credit facility subject us to market risk associated with movements in interest rates. We had $32.9 million in variable rate debt outstanding at December 31, 2021. A hypothetical 10% adverse movement in the interest rate will have an immaterial impact on our interest expense. As of December 31, 2021, we had four interest rate swaps executed in March 2020 with a combined notional amount of $200 million expiring in April 2025, and one interest rate swap executed in May 2020 with a notional amount of $50 million expiring in May 2025. We have designated these swaps as cash flow hedges and all changes in fair value of the swaps are recognized in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). We use a sensitivity analysis to measure the impact on fair value of the interest rate swaps of an immediate adverse movement in the interest rates of 50 basis points. This analysis was based on a modeling technique that measures the hypothetical market value resulting from a 50 basis point change in interest rates. This adverse change in the applicable interest rates would result in an decrease of $3.4 million in the net fair value of our interest rate swaps for $250 million of notional value expiring in 2025. 47 In May 2021, we issued $402.5 million aggregate principal amount of Convertible Senior Notes (the “Notes”) due 2026. We do not have economic interest rate exposure as the Notes have a fixed annual rate of 0.25%. The fair value of the Notes is subject to interest rate risk, market risk and other factors due to its conversion feature. The fair value of the Notes is also affected by the price and volatility of our common stock and will generally increase or decrease as the market price of our common stock changes. The interest and market value changes affect the fair value of the Notes but do not impact our financial position, cash flows or results of operations due to the fixed nature of the debt obligation. Additionally, we carry the Notes at face value, less any unamortized issuance costs, on the balance sheet and present the fair value for disclosure purposes only. 48 ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of John Bean Technologies Corporation Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of John Bean Technologies Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2021, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended, including the related notes and schedule of valuation and qualifying accounts for the year ended December 31, 2021 listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(2) (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO. Basis for Opinions The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinions. As described in Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, management has excluded CMS Technology, Inc (“Prevenio”), Urtasun Tecnología Alimentaria S.L. (“Urtasun”) and AutoCoding Systems Ltd. (“ACS”) from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, because they were acquired by the Company in purchase business combinations during 2021. We have also excluded Prevenio, Urtasun and ACS from our audit of internal control over financial reporting. Prevenio, Urtasun and ACS are wholly-owned subsidiaries whose total assets and total revenues excluded from management’s assessment and our audit of internal control over financial reporting collectively represent 2.2% and 1.6%, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021. Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding 49 prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Critical Audit Matters The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate. Revenue Recognition - Product Revenue Estimated Costs at Completion As described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company recognized $682.7 million of product revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021, for over time projects using the “cost-to-cost” input method for refurbishments of customer-owned equipment and for highly customized equipment for which the Company has a contractual, enforceable right to collect payment upon customer cancellation for performance completed to date. For product revenue recognized over time, progress is measured based on costs incurred to date relative to total estimated cost at completion. Cost estimates are based on assumptions and estimates to project the outcome of future events; including estimated labor and material costs required to complete open projects. The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to revenue recognition - product revenue estimated costs at completion is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when determining the estimated costs at completion, and (ii) the high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management’s assumptions related to estimated labor and material costs required to complete open projects. Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to the product revenue recognition process, including controls over the determination of estimated costs at completion. These procedures also included, among others, evaluating and testing management’s process for determining the estimated costs at completion for a sample of contracts, which included evaluating the reasonableness of assumptions related to the estimated labor and material costs required to complete open projects used by management and considering the factors that can affect the accuracy of those estimates. Evaluating the reasonableness of assumptions used involved assessing management’s ability to reasonably estimate costs at completion by (i) testing the completeness and accuracy of underlying data used in the estimate; (ii) performing a comparison of the originally estimated and actual costs incurred on similar completed contracts; (iii) evaluating the timely identification of circumstances that may warrant a modification to estimated costs at completion; and (iv) evaluating responses to inquiries with the Company’s project managers regarding the expected remaining efforts. Acquisition of Prevenio – Valuation of Customer Relationship Intangible Asset As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company acquired 100% voting equity of Prevenio for a total purchase price of $169.8 million, net of cash acquired, which resulted in $41.0 million of a customer relationship intangible asset being recorded. As disclosed by management, management uses the multi-period excess earnings method to determine the fair value of the customer relationships. Management’s estimates and assumptions used to determine the fair value of the customer relationship intangible asset include forecasted revenue growth rates, EBITDA margins, customer attrition rate and the discount rate. The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the valuation of the customer relationship intangible asset from the acquisition of Prevenio is a critical audit matter are the (i) the significant judgment by management when developing the fair value estimate of the customer relationship intangible asset; (ii) the high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management’s assumptions related to forecasted revenue growth rates, EBITDA margins, customer attrition rate and the discount rate; and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge. Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to the acquisition accounting, including controls over management’s valuation of the customer relationship intangible asset and controls over the development of assumptions related to forecasted revenue growth rates, EBITDA margins, customer attrition rate and the discount rate. These procedures also included, among others (i) reading the purchase agreement; (ii) testing management’s process for developing the fair value estimate of the customer relationship intangible asset; (iii) evaluating the appropriateness of the multi-period excess earnings method; (iv) testing the completeness and accuracy of underlying data used in the valuation; and (v) evaluating the 50 reasonableness of management’s assumptions related to forecasted revenue growth rates, EBITDA margins, customer attrition rate and discount rate. Evaluating the reasonableness of management’s assumptions related to forecasted revenue growth rates, EBITDA margins and the customer attrition rate involved considering (i) the current and past performance of the acquired business; (ii) the consistency with external market and industry data; and (iii) whether the assumptions were consistent with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit. Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge were used to assist in the evaluation of (i) the multi-period excess earnings method and (ii) the reasonableness of the assumptions related to customer attrition rate and the discount rate. /s/ PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP Chicago, Illinois February 24, 2022 We have served as the Company's auditor since 2021. 51 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Stockholders and Board of Directors John Bean Technologies Corporation: Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements We have audited, before the effects of the adjustments to retrospectively apply the change in accounting described in Note 1, the consolidated balance sheet of John Bean Technologies Corporation and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2020, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2020, and the related notes and financial statement schedule II (collectively, the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements, before the effects of the adjustments to retrospectively apply the change in accounting described in Note 1, present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2020, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. We were not engaged to audit, review, or apply any procedures to the adjustments to retrospectively apply the change in accounting described in Note 1 and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance about whether such adjustments are appropriate and have been properly applied. Those adjustments were audited by other auditors. Basis for Opinion These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of John Bean Technologies Corporation (JBT, we, or the Company) and all wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany investments, accounts, and transactions have been eliminated. Use of estimates Preparation of financial statements that follow U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. Allowance for credit losses The Company adopted ASC 326, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, as of January 1, 2020 with the cumulative- effect transition method with the required prospective approach. The measurement of expected credit losses under the Current Expected Credit Loss ("CECL") methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, which includes trade receivables, contract assets, and non-current receivables. An allowance for credit losses under the CECL methodology is determined using the loss rate approach and measured on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist. Where financial instruments do not share risk characteristics, they are evaluated on an individual basis. The CECL allowance is based on relevant available information, from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The allowance for credit losses as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 was $6.0 million and $5.3 million, respectively. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, which includes an estimate for excess and obsolete inventories. Inventory costs include those costs directly attributable to products, including all manufacturing overhead but excluding costs to distribute. Cost is determined on the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) basis for certain of our domestic inventories. We exclude certain inventories relating to over time contracts, which are stated at the actual production cost incurred to date, reduced by the portion of these costs identified with revenue recognized. The first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method is used to determine the cost for all other inventories. Property, plant, and equipment Property, plant, and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation for financial reporting purposes is provided principally on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets (land improvements—20 to 35 years; buildings—20 to 50 years; and machinery and equipment—3 to 20 years). Gains and losses are reflected in the Selling, general and administrative expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income upon the sale or retirement of assets. Expenditures that extend the useful lives of property, plant, and equipment are capitalized and depreciated over the estimated new remaining life of the asset. Leasehold improvements are recorded at cost and depreciated over the standard life of the type of asset or the remaining life of the lease, whichever is shorter. Capitalized software costs Other assets include the capitalized cost of internal use software and software sold as part of a product. The assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and were $40.6 million and $16.9 million at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. These software costs include the amount paid for purchases of software and internal and external costs incurred during the application development stage of software projects. These costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. For internal use software, the useful lives range from three to ten years. Capitalized software amortization expense was $3.7 million, $3.4 million, and $3.8 million for 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. 58 Goodwill The Company tests goodwill for impairment annually during the fourth quarter and whenever events occur or changes in circumstances indicate that impairment may have occurred. Impairment testing is performed for each of the Company's reporting units by first assessing qualitative factors to see if further testing of goodwill is required. Qualitative factors may include, but are not limited to economic conditions, industry and market considerations, cost factors, overall financial performance of the reporting units and other entity and reporting unit specific events. If the Company concludes that it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount based on the qualitative assessment, then a quantitative test is required. The Company may also choose to bypass the qualitative assessment and perform the quantitative test. In performing the quantitative test, the Company determines the fair value of a reporting unit using the “income approach” valuation method. The Company uses a discounted cash flow model in which cash flows anticipated over several periods, plus a terminal value at the end of that time horizon, are discounted to their present value using an appropriate cost of capital rate. Judgment is required in developing the assumptions for the discounted cash flow model. These assumptions include revenue growth rates, profit margin percentages, discount rates, perpetuity growth rates, future capital expenditures, and working capital requirements, among others. If the estimated fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, the Company considers that goodwill is not impaired.The Company calculates the impairment loss by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit less its carrying amount, including goodwill, and would be limited to the carrying value of the goodwill. The Company completed its annual goodwill impairment test as of October 31, 2021 using a qualitative assessment approach. As a result of this assessment the Company concluded that it is more likely than not that the fair value of each reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, and therefore it determined that none of its goodwill was impaired. Similar conclusions were reached as of October 31, 2020 and 2019. Acquired intangible assets Intangible assets with finite useful lives are subject to amortization on a straight-line basis over the expected period of economic benefit, which range from less than 4 years to 21 years. The Company evaluates whether events or circumstances have occurred that warrant a revision to the remaining useful lives of intangible assets. In cases where a revision is deemed appropriate, the remaining carrying amounts of the intangible assets are amortized over the revised remaining useful life. The carrying values of intangible assets with indefinite lives are reviewed for recoverability on an annual basis, and whenever events occur or changes in circumstances indicate that impairment may have occurred. The facts and circumstances considered include an assessment of the recoverability of the cost of intangible assets from future cash flows to be derived from the use of the asset. It is not possible to predict the likelihood of any possible future impairments or, if such an impairment were to occur, the magnitude of any impairment. However, any potential impairment would be limited to the carrying value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset. For intangible assets with indefinite lives, the Company also evaluates whether events or circumstances have occurred that warrant a revision of their useful lives from an indefinite life to finite useful life. In cases where a revision is deemed appropriate, the carrying amounts of such intangible assets are amortized over the revised finite useful life. During the year 2020, we revised the indefinite useful lives of certain trade name intangible assets in the amount of $5.0 million to amortize them prospectively. The Company completed its annual evaluation for impairment of all indefinite-lived intangible assets as of October 31, 2021, which did not result in any impairment. Similar conclusions were reached as of October 31, 2020 and 2019. Impairment of long-lived assets Long-lived assets other than goodwill and acquired indefinite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the long-lived asset may not be recoverable. The carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. If it is determined that an impairment loss has occurred, the loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the long-lived asset exceeds its fair value. We have evaluated the current environment as of December 31, 2021 and the year then ended and have concluded there is no event or circumstance that has occurred to trigger an impairment assessment of our long-lived assets. We will continue to monitor the environment to determine whether the impacts to the Company represent an event or change in circumstances that may trigger a need to assess for useful life revision or impairment. 59 Revenue recognition Revenue is measured based on consideration specified in a contract with a customer, and excludes any sales incentives and amounts collected on behalf of third parties when the Company is acting in an agent capacity. The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of a product or service to a customer. Performance Obligations & Contract Estimates A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation based on its respective stand-alone selling price and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. A large portion of revenue across the Company is derived from manufactured equipment, which may be customized to meet customer specifications. The Company's contracts with customers in both segments often include multiple promised goods and/or services. For instance, a contract may include equipment, installation, optional warranties, periodic service calls, etc. The Company frequently has contracts for which the equipment and installation are considered a single performance obligation. In these instances the installation services are not separately identifiable as the installation goes above and beyond the basic assembly, set-up and testing and therefore significantly customizes or modifies the equipment. However, the Company also has contracts where the installation services are deemed to be separately identifiable as the nature of these services are considered basic assembly, set-up and testing, and are therefore deemed to be a separate performance obligation. This generally occurs in contracts where the Company manufactures standard equipment. When a performance obligation is separately identifiable, as defined in ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company allocates a portion of the contract price to the obligation and recognizes it separately from the other performance obligations. Contract price allocation among multiple performance obligations is based on the relative standalone selling price of each distinct good or service in the contract. When not sold separately, an estimate of the standalone selling price is determined using expected cost plus a reasonable margin. The timing of revenue recognition for each performance obligation is either over time as control transfers or at a point in time. The Company recognizes revenue over time for contracts that provide service over a period of time, for refurbishments of customer-owned equipment, and for highly customized equipment for which the Company has a contractual, enforceable right to collect payment upon customer cancellation for performance completed to date. Revenue generated from standard equipment, highly customized equipment contracts without an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date, as well as aftermarket parts and services sales, are recognized at a point in time. The Company utilizes the input method of “cost-to-cost” to recognize product revenue over time. The Company measures progress based on costs incurred to date relative to total estimated cost at completion. Incurred cost represents work performed, which corresponds with, and therefore depicts, the transfer of control to the customer. Contract costs include labor, material, and certain allocated overhead expense. Material costs are considered incurred, and therefore included in the cost-to-cost measure of progress, when they are used in manufacturing and therefore customize the asset. Cost estimates are based on assumptions and estimates to project the outcome of future events; including the estimated labor and material costs required to complete open projects. During the year, we recognized $682.7 million in revenue for over time projects using the cost-to-cost method. Revenue attributable to equipment which qualifies as point in time is recognized when customers take control of the asset. For equipment where installation is separately identifiable, the Company generally determines that control transfers when the customer has obtained legal title and the risks and rewards of ownership, which is dependent upon the shipping terms within the contract. For customized equipment where installation is not separately identifiable, but where the Company does not have an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to-date, it defines control transfer as the point in time in which it is able to objectively verify that the customer has the capability of full use of the asset as intended per the contract as this is when control is considered to have passed to the customer. Service revenue is recognized over time either proportionately over the period of the underlying contract or when services are complete, depending on the terms of the arrangement. Any expected losses for a contract are charged to earnings, in total, in the period such losses are identified. The Company generally bills customers in advance, and progress billings generally are issued upon the completion of certain phases of the work as stipulated in the contract. The Company may extend credit to customers in line with industry standards where it is strategically advantageous. Within the JBT AeroTech segment, maintenance and repair service for baggage handling systems, facilities, gate systems, and ground support equipment is provided. The timing of contract billings is concurrent with the completion of the services, and therefore the Company has availed itself of the practical expedient that allows it to recognize revenue commensurate with the amount to which it has a right to invoice, which corresponds directly to the value to the customer of performance completed to date. 60 Research and development The objectives of the research and development programs are to create new products and business opportunities in relevant fields, and to improve existing products. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development expense of $29.9 million, $29.3 million, and $28.5 million for 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively, is recorded in selling, general and administrative expense. Income taxes The Company’s provision for income taxes includes amounts payable or refundable for the current year, the effects of deferred taxes and impacts from uncertain tax positions, if applicable. We establish deferred tax liabilities or assets for temporary differences between financial and tax reporting basis and subsequently adjust them to reflect changes in tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences reverse. We record a valuation allowance reducing deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. Valuation allowances are evaluated periodically and may be subject to change in future reporting periods. We recognize tax benefits in our financial statements from uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained based on the technical merits of the position. The amount we recognize is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon resolution. Future changes related to the expected resolution of uncertain tax positions could affect tax expense in the period when the change occurs. Interest and penalties related to underpayment of income taxes are classified as income tax expense. We monitor for changes in tax laws and reflect the impacts of tax law changes in the period of enactment. When there is refinement to tax law changes in subsequent periods, we account for the new guidance in the period when it becomes known. Stock-based employee compensation The Company measures compensation cost on restricted stock awards based on the market price of common stock at the grant date and the number of shares awarded. The compensation cost for each award is recognized ratably over the lesser of the stated vesting period or the period until the employee becomes retirement eligible, after taking into account forfeitures. Foreign currency Financial statements of operations for which the U.S. dollar is not the functional currency are translated to the U.S. dollar prior to consolidation. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date, while income statement accounts are translated at the average exchange rate for each period. For these operations, translation gains and losses are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in stockholders’ equity until the foreign entity is sold or liquidated. Derivative financial instruments Derivatives are recognized in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value, with classification as current or non-current based upon the maturity of the derivative instrument. The Company does not offset fair value amounts for derivative instruments held with the same counterparty. Changes in the fair value of derivative instruments are recorded in current earnings or deferred in accumulated other comprehensive loss, depending on the type of hedging transaction and whether a derivative is designated as, and is effective as, a hedge. In the Consolidated Statements of Income, earnings from foreign currency derivatives related to sales and remeasurement of sales- related assets, liabilities and contracts are recorded in revenue, while earnings from foreign currency derivatives related to purchases and remeasurement of purchase-related assets, liabilities and contracts are recorded in cost of products. Earnings from foreign currency derivatives related to cash management of foreign currencies throughout the world and remeasurement of cash are recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses. When hedge accounting is applied, the Company ensures that the derivative is highly effective at offsetting changes in anticipated cash flows of the hedged item or transaction. Changes in fair value of derivatives that are designated as cash flow hedges are deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until the underlying transactions are recognized in earnings. At such time, related deferred hedging gains or losses are also recorded in earnings on the same line as the hedged item. Effectiveness is assessed at the inception of the hedge. The Company documents the risk management strategy and method for assessing hedge effectiveness at the inception of and throughout the term of each hedge. The Company's cross-currency swap agreements synthetically swap U.S. dollar denominated fixed rate debt for Euro denominated fixed rate debt and are designated as net investment hedges for accounting purposes. The gains or losses on these derivative 61 instruments are included in the foreign currency translation component of other comprehensive income until the net investment is sold, diluted, or liquidated. Interest payments received for the cross currency swaps are excluded from the net investment hedge effectiveness assessment and are recorded in interest expense, net on the Consolidated Statements of Income. For derivatives with components excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness, the accumulated gains or losses recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on such excluded components in a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedging relationship are reclassified to earnings on a systematic and rational basis over the hedge term. Cash flows from derivative contracts are reported in the consolidated statements of cash flows in the same categories as the cash flows from the underlying transactions. Leases Lessee accounting The Company leases office space, manufacturing facilities and various types of manufacturing and data processing equipment. Leases of real estate generally provide that the Company pays for repairs, property taxes and insurance. At the inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease based on whether the contract conveys the right to control the use of identified property, plant or equipment for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Leases are classified as operating or finance leases at the commencement date of the lease. Operating leases are included in operating lease right of use ("ROU") assets, other current liabilities, and operating lease liabilities in the consolidated Balance Sheet, which are reported within other assets, other current liabilities and other liabilities, respectively. Lease liabilities are classified between current and long-term liabilities based on their payment terms. The ROU asset balance for finance leases is included in property, plant, and equipment, net in the Balance Sheet. In accordance with the standard, the Company has elected not to recognize leases with terms of less than one year on the Balance Sheet. ROU assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent an obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As the implicit rate is generally not readily determinable for most of its leases, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. We determined the incremental borrowing rate for all leases, based on the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments on a collateralized basis over a similar term. The Company used an unsecured borrowing rate and risk-adjusted that rate to approximate a collateralized rate. The operating lease ROU asset also includes prepaid rent and reflects the unamortized balance of lease incentives. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for leases other than leases of vehicles and communication equipment. For the asset categories of real estate, manufacturing, office and IT equipment, the Company accounts for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. The Company's leases may include renewal and termination options, which are included in the lease term if the Company concludes that it is reasonably certain that it will exercise the option. Some leases give the option to renew, with renewal terms that may extend the lease term. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Company's sole discretion. Certain leases also include options to purchase the leased property. The depreciable life of the ROU assets are limited by the expected lease term, unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably certain of exercise. Our lease agreements may contain variable costs such as common area maintenance, insurance, real estate taxes or other costs. Variable lease costs are expensed as incurred on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees. Lessor accounting The Company leases certain JBT FoodTech equipment primarily, such as high capacity industrial extractors, to customers. In most instances, the Company includes maintenance as a component of the lease agreement. Lease accounting requires lessors to separate lease and non-lease components and further defines maintenance as a non-lease component. The Company elected to exercise the available practical expedient of combining lease and non-lease components where the components meet both of the following criteria: • The timing and pattern of transfer to the lessee of the lease and non-lease component are the same, and 62 • The lease component, if accounted for separately, would be classified as an operating lease. As such, the leased asset and its respective maintenance component will not be accounted for separately. In certain leases, consumables are included as a non-lease component. For these leases, the components do not qualify for the practical expedient as the timing and pattern of transfer to the lessee are not the same. In these instances, the non-lease component will be accounted for in accordance with ASC 606. The Company monitors the risk associated with residual value of its leased assets. It reviews on an annual basis or more often as deemed necessary, and adjusted residual values and useful lives of equipment leased to outside parties, as appropriate. Adjustments to residual values result in an adjustment to depreciation expense. The Company's annual review is based on a long-term view considering historical market price changes, market price trends, and expected life of the equipment. Lease agreements with the Company's customers do not contain any material residual value guarantees. Certain lease agreements include terms and conditions resulting in variable lease payments. These payments typically rely upon the usage of the underlying asset. Certain lease agreements provide renewal options, including some leases with an evergreen renewal option. The exercise of the lease renewal option is at the sole discretion of the lessee. In most instances, the lease can only be terminated in cases of breach of contract. In these instances, termination fees do not apply. Certain lease agreements also allow the lessee to purchase the leased asset at fair market value or a specific agreed upon price. The exercise of the lease purchase option is at the sole discretion of the lessee. Recently Adopted Accounting Standards In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). The amendments in this update simplifies accounting for certain convertible debt instruments by removing the separation models for convertible debt with a cash conversion feature or convertible instruments with a beneficial conversion feature. As a result, convertible debt instruments will be reported as a single liability instrument with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features. Additionally, ASU 2020-06 requires the application of the if-converted method for calculating diluted earnings per share and the treasury stock method will be no longer be available for convertible debt instruments. The provisions of ASU 2020-06 are applicable for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company early adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2021 using the modified retrospective method. There was no impact on the Company's financial statements as of the adoption date. As further discussed in Note 6, "Debt," the Company issued $402.5 million principal amount of convertible senior notes on May 28, 2021, which have been accounted for in accordance with the provisions of ASU 2020-06. In July 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-05, Leases (Topic 842): Lessors—Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments. ASU 2021-05 requires accounting for leases by lessors with variable lease payments that do not depend on a reference index or a rate as operating leases if any other lease classification would require the lessor to recognize a day-one loss. The provisions of ASU 2021-05 are applicable for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted. The Company early adopted the new standard effective September 30, 2021 using retrospective method of adoption with an immaterial adoption impact to the Company's current year financial statements resulting from transactions in 2021 and no impact to the Company's financial statement for comparative prior year periods. In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Acquired Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities. Under the new guidance, the acquirer should determine what contract assets and/or contract liabilities it would have recorded under ASC 606 as of the acquisition date, as if the acquirer had entered into the original contract at the same date and on the same terms as the acquiree. The recognition and measurement of those contract assets and contract liabilities will likely be comparable to what the acquiree has recorded on its books under ASC 606 as of the acquisition date. ASU 2021-08 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including in an interim period, for any period for which financial statements have not yet been issued. However, adoption in an interim period other than the first fiscal quarter requires an entity to apply the new guidance to all prior business combinations that have occurred since the beginning of the annual period in which the new guidance is adopted. The Company early adopted the new standard effective December 31, 2021 with no adoption impact to the Company's current year financial statements. 63 Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance. This update requires annual disclosures about transactions with a government that are accounted for by applying a grant or contribution accounting model by analogy. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 and should be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2021-10 on its disclosures. NOTE 2. ACQUISITIONS During 2021 and 2020, the Company acquired 100% voting equity of three businesses, and the assets and liabilities of another business. A summary of the acquisitions made during the period is as follows: Date Type Company/Product Line Location Segment November 2, 2021 Stock Urtasun Tecnología Alimentaria S.L ("Urtasun") Navarra, Spain JBT FoodTech A provider of fruit and vegetable processing solutions, particularly in the fresh packaged and frozen markets. The Urtasun acquisition extends the Company's capabilities in providing fruit and vegetable processing solutions. July 2, 2021 Stock CMS Technology, Inc ("Prevenio") Bridgewater, New Jersey JBT FoodTech A provider of innovative food safety solutions primarily for the poultry industry as well as produce applications. Prevenio provides a pathogen protection solution through its anti-microbial delivery equipment that enhances food safety and integrity, and creates a safer work environment for its customers and their employees. This acquisition enhances the Company’s recurring revenue portfolio and furthers its investment in solutions that support its customers’ daily operations. February 28, 2021 Stock AutoCoding Systems Ltd. ("ACS") Cheshire, U.K. JBT FoodTech A provider of a central command solution for the integration of packaging process devices. The ACS acquisition extends the Company's capabilities in packaging line equipment and associated devices, including coding and label inspection and verification. May 29, 2020 Asset MARS Food Processing Solutions, LLC ("MARS") Denver, North Carolina JBT FoodTech A provider of solutions for monitoring and managing the efficiency of poultry processing plants. The MARS acquisition allows the Company to offer its Protein customers proprietary solutions for monitoring and managing the efficiency of poultry processing plants. Each acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination. Tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their respective estimated fair values. The excess of the consideration transferred over the estimated fair value of the net assets received has been recorded as goodwill. The factors that contributed to the recognition of goodwill primarily relate to acquisition-driven anticipated cost savings and revenue enhancement synergies coupled with the assembled workforce acquired. 64 Purchase price allocation for 2021 acquisitions: (In millions) Financial assets Inventories Property, plant and equipment Customer relationship (4) Patents and acquired technology (4) Trademarks (4) Deferred taxes Financial liabilities Total identifiable net assets Cash consideration paid Cash acquired Net consideration Goodwill (5) Urtasun(1) $ 8.5 $ Prevenio(2) ACS(3) Total 8.1 $ 2.9 $ 3.5 2.5 11.5 6.0 2.2 0.2 4.3 41.0 17.5 0.7 0.7 — 3.7 3.4 0.8 (5.4) (7.2) (15.0) (3.1) (0.9) (2.9) 21.6 $ 53.7 $ 7.7 $ 19.5 4.4 6.8 56.2 26.9 3.7 (21.3) (13.2) 83.0 43.8 $ 173.3 $ 16.8 $ 233.9 4.8 3.5 1.1 9.4 39.0 $ 169.8 $ 15.7 $ 224.5 22.2 $ 119.6 $ 9.1 $ 150.9 $ $ $ $ (1) (2) (3) (4) The purchase accounting for Urtasun is provisional. The valuation of certain working capital balances, property, plant and equipment, intangibles, income tax balances and residual goodwill is not complete. These amounts are subject to adjustment as additional information is obtained within the measurement period (not to exceed 12 months from the acquisition date). The purchase accounting for Prevenio is provisional. The valuation of certain working capital balances, property, plant and equipment, intangibles, income tax balances and residual goodwill is not complete. These amounts are subject to adjustment as additional information is obtained within the measurement period (not to exceed 12 months from the acquisition date). During the quarter ended December 31, 2021, the Company made no significant measurement period adjustments for Prevenio. The purchase accounting for ACS is final. During the quarter ended June 30, 2021, the Company refined its estimates for other intangibles by ($2.0) million and deferred taxes by $0.5 million. During the quarters ended September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2021, the Company made no significant measurement period adjustments for ACS. The impact of these adjustments were reflected as a net increase in goodwill of $1.3 million. These adjustments resulted in an immaterial impact to the consolidated statement of income. The acquired intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, which range from four to twenty years. The intangible assets acquired in 2021 have weighted average useful lives of 14 years for customer relationship, 8 years for patents and acquired technology, and 17 years for trademarks. (5) The Company expects goodwill of $0.7 million from these acquisitions to be deductible for income tax purposes. During the year ended December 31, 2021, acquisitions in 2021 generated aggregate revenues of $29.4 million and aggregate net income of $0.8 million. During the second quarter of 2020, the Company acquired certain assets and liabilities of MARS Food Processing Solutions, LLC ("MARS") for a purchase price of $5 million. The Company expects goodwill of $3.1 million from this acquisition to be deductible for income tax purposes. The purchase accounting for MARS was final as of December 31, 2020. 65 Pro forma financial information for 2019 acquisition (unaudited) The Company's acquisition of Proseal UK Limited ("Proseal") on May 31, 2019 was material to its overall results and as such the Company is required under ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, to present pro forma information. The following information reflects the results of the Company’s operations for the year 2019 on a pro forma basis as if the acquisition of Proseal had been completed on January 1, 2018. Pro forma adjustments have been made to illustrate the incremental impact on earnings of interest costs on the borrowings to acquire the company, amortization expense related to acquired intangible assets, depreciation expense related to the fair value of the acquired depreciable tangible assets, and the related tax impact associated with the incremental interest costs and amortization and depreciation expense.

Annual amortization expense for intangible assets is estimated to be $41.6 million in 2022, $40.3 million in 2023, $38.2 million in 2024, $37.3 million in 2025, and $36.3 million in 2026. NOTE 6. DEBT Five-year Revolving Credit Facility On June 19, 2018, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, and the other lenders party thereto. The Credit Agreement provided for a $1 billion revolving credit facility that matures in June 2023. The borrowings under the Credit Agreement were used to repay in full all outstanding indebtedness under the previous credit agreement. On May 25, 2021, the Company entered into the first amendment to the Credit Agreement to permit the issuance of the Convertible Senior Notes described below. On December 14, 2021, the Company entered into the second amendment to increase its borrowing limit from $1 billion to $1.3 billion, extend the maturity of the Credit Agreement from June 2023 to December 2026, and modified the leverage calculation to differentiate between secured debt and total debt. Revolving loans under the credit facility bear interest, at the Company's option, at 1) LIBOR (subject to a floor rate of zero) or a benchmark replacement rate, or 2) an alternative base rate (which is the greater of Wells Fargo’s Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Rate plus 50 basis points, or LIBOR plus 1%), plus, in each case, a margin dependent on the leverage ratio. 67 The Company is required to make periodic interest payments on borrowed amounts and to pay an annual commitment fee of 15.0 to 30.0 basis points, depending on its leverage ratio. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had $282.9 million drawn on and $1,009.4 million of availability under the revolving credit facility. The ability to use this availability is limited by the leverage ratio covenant described below. The obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Company’s domestic and certain foreign subsidiaries and subsequently formed or acquired subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”). The obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by a first- priority security interest in substantially all of the Guarantor’s tangible and intangible personal property and a pledge of the capital stock of permitted borrowers and certain Guarantors. The Company's credit facility includes restrictive covenants that, if not met, could lead to renegotiation of its credit facility, a requirement to repay its borrowings, and/or a significant increase in its cost of financing. Restrictive covenants include a minimum interest coverage ratio, a maximum leverage ratio, as well as certain events of default. Convertible Senior Notes On May 28, 2021, the Company closed a private offering of $402.5 million aggregate principal amount of the Company's 0.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 (the "Notes") to qualified institutional buyers, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $392.2 million after deducting initial purchasers’ discounts of the Notes. Interest on the Notes will accrue from May 28, 2021 and is payable semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning on November 15, 2021, at a rate of 0.25% per year. The Notes will mature on May 15, 2026 unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. No sinking fund is provided for the Notes. The initial conversion rate of the Notes is 5.8958 shares of the Company's common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $169.61 per share. The conversion rate of the Notes is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events. In addition, upon the occurrence of a make-whole fundamental change (as defined in the indenture governing the Notes (the "Indenture")) or upon a notice of redemption, the Company will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate for a holder that elects to convert its Notes in connection with such make-whole fundamental change or notice of redemption, as the case may be. On or after March 20, 2024, the Company has the option to redeem for cash all or part of the Notes, if the last reported sales price of the Company's common stock (the "common stock") has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive), including the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides redemption notice, during any 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day immediately before the date the Company sends the related redemption notice. The redemption price of each Note to be redeemed will be the principal amount of such note, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. If the Company redeems less than all the outstanding Notes, at least $100 million aggregate principal amount of Notes must be outstanding and not subject to redemption as of the relevant redemption notice date. Prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding February 15, 2026, the Notes are convertible at the option of the holders only under the following circumstances: • • • • during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on September 30, 2021 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of the common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; during the five business day period after any ten consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day; if the Company calls such Notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date, but only with respect to the Notes called (or deemed called) for redemption; or upon the occurrence of certain corporate events, as specified in the Indenture governing the Notes. At any time on or after February 15, 2026, holders may convert their Notes at their option, and in multiples of $1,000 principal amount, without regard to the foregoing circumstances. Upon conversion, the Company will pay cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the Notes and for the remainder of our conversion obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount will pay or deliver cash, shares of common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of common stock at the Company’s election. 68 The Notes were not convertible during the year ended December 31, 2021 and none have been converted to date. Also given the daily average market price of the common stock has not exceeded the exercise price since inception, there is no impact to the diluted earnings per share. Upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the Indenture), subject to certain conditions, holders may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their Notes in multiples of $1,000 principal amounts, at its repurchase price, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the repurchase date. The Notes are senior unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of the Company's existing unsubordinated debt and senior in right of payment to any future debt that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes. The Notes will be effectively subordinated to any of the Company's existing and future secured debt to the extent of the assets securing such indebtedness. The Indenture includes customary terms and covenants, including certain events of default after which the Notes may become due and payable immediately. Convertible Note Hedge Transactions The Company paid an aggregate amount of $65.6 million for the Convertible Note Hedge Transactions (the "Hedge Transactions"). The Hedge Transactions cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those in the Notes, approximately 2.4 million shares of the Company's common stock. These are the same number of shares initially underlying the Notes, at a strike price of $169.61, subject to customary adjustments. The Hedge Transactions will expire upon the maturity of the Notes, subject to earlier exercise or termination. The Hedge Transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilutive effect of the conversion of the Notes and/or offset any cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of the converted Notes, in the event that the market price per share of the Company's common stock, as measured under the terms of the Hedge Transactions, is greater than the Hedge Transactions strike price of $169.61. The Hedge Transactions meet the criteria in ASC 815-40 to be classified within Stockholders' Equity, and therefore these transactions are not revalued after their issuance. The Company made a tax election to integrate the Notes and the Hedge Transactions. The accounting impact of this tax election makes the Hedge Transactions deductible as original issue discount interest for tax purposes over the term of the note, and results in a $17.1 million deferred tax asset recorded as an adjustment to Additional paid-in capital on our Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2021. Warrant Transactions In addition, concurrently with entering into the Hedge Transactions, the Company separately entered into privately-negotiated Warrant Transactions (the "Warrant Transactions"), whereby the Company sold to the counterparties warrants to acquire, collectively, subject to anti-dilution adjustments, 2.4 million shares of its common stock at an initial strike price of $240.02 per share. The Company received aggregate proceeds of $29.5 million from the Warrant Transactions with the counterparties, with such proceeds partially offsetting the costs of entering into the Hedge Transactions. The warrants expire in August 2026. If the market value per share of the common stock, exceeds the strike price of the warrants, the warrants will have a dilutive effect on our earnings per share, unless the Company elects, subject to certain conditions, to settle the warrants in cash. The warrants meet the criteria in ASC 815-40 to be classified within Stockholders' Equity, and therefore the warrants are not revalued after issuance. 69 The components of the Company's borrowings as of December 31, were as follows: (In millions) Revolving credit facility (1) Less: unamortized debt issuance costs Revolving credit facility, net Convertible senior notes (2) Less: unamortized debt issuance costs Convertible senior notes, net Long-term debt, net Maturity Date December 14, 2026 May 15, 2026 2021 2020 282.9 $ (1.2) 281.7 $ 402.5 $ (9.8) 392.7 $ 523.9 (1.4) 522.5 — — — 674.4 $ 522.5 $ $ $ $ $ (1) Weighted-average interest rate at December 31, 2021 was 1.46% (2) Effective interest rate for the Notes for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 was 0.82% Interest expense of $1.9 million recognized for the Notes included contractual interest expense of $0.6 million and the amortization of debt issuance cost of $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2021.

INCOME TAXES Domestic and foreign components of income from continuing operations before income taxes for the years ended on December 31, are shown below: (In millions) Domestic Foreign Income before income taxes 2021 2020 2019 $ $ 71.5 $ 81.2 78.6 $ 66.9 152.7 $ 145.5 $ 85.2 81.7 166.9 The provision for income taxes related to income from continuing operations for the years ended on December 31, consisted of: (In millions) Current: Federal State Foreign Total current Deferred: Federal State Foreign Total deferred Provision for income taxes 2021 2020 2019 $ $ $ $ $ 4.2 $ 4.6 $ 2.2 30.6 3.0 19.3 37.0 $ 26.9 $ 1.0 $ 1.5 (5.2) (2.7) $ 34.3 $ 8.9 $ 1.5 (0.6) 9.8 $ 36.7 $ (8.1) 4.1 21.8 17.8 18.2 1.0 0.6 19.8 37.6 The Company included in the tax provision for the year ended December 31, 2021 an immaterial correction of the rate applied since 2017 to a deferred tax liability associated with an investment in a subsidiary. 70 Significant components of deferred tax assets and liabilities at December 31, were as follows: (In millions) Deferred tax assets attributable to: Accrued pension and other postretirement benefits Accrued expenses and accounts receivable allowances Net operating loss carryforwards Inventories Stock-based compensation Operating lease liabilities Research and development credit carryforwards Foreign tax credit carryforward Convertible bond Other Total deferred tax assets Valuation allowance Deferred tax assets, net of valuation allowance Deferred tax liabilities attributable to: Investment in subsidiary Property, plant and equipment Goodwill and amortization Right to use lease assets Other Total deferred tax liabilities Net deferred tax liabilities 2021 2020 $ $ $ $ $ $ 14.2 $ 18.6 9.5 9.0 3.3 8.9 4.6 0.9 15.2 — 84.2 $ (4.9) 79.3 $ 8.7 $ 24.9 75.0 8.8 3.2 120.6 $ (41.3) $ 24.2 13.0 7.1 8.4 3.3 7.3 4.1 0.4 — 1.5 69.3 (4.6) 64.7 13.3 23.2 51.7 7.2 — 95.4 (30.7) Included in deferred tax assets are tax benefits related to net operating loss carryforwards attributable to foreign and domestic operations. At December 31, 2021, the Company had $21.0 million of net operating losses that are available to offset future taxable income in several foreign jurisdictions indefinitely, and $24.4 million of net operating losses that are available to offset future taxable income through 2027. Of the $24.4 million, approximately $23.4 million of net operating losses in Switzerland, the Netherlands, and China are subject to a full valuation allowance, as management has concluded that, based on the available evidence, it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be fully utilized. During 2021, the Company utilized $1.7 million of net operating losses relating to prior years. Also included in deferred tax assets at December 31, 2021 are $3.8 million of U.S. state research and development credit carryforwards, which will expire beginning in 2028, if unused. 71 The effective income tax rate was different from the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate due to the following: Statutory U.S. federal tax rate Net difference resulting from: Research and development tax credit Foreign earnings subject to different tax rates Nondeductible expenses State income taxes Foreign tax credits Foreign withholding taxes Effect of UK law change Global intangible low-taxed income (GILTI) Stock based compensation - excess tax benefit Remeasurement of deferred tax liability Other Total difference Effective income tax rate 2021 2020 2019 21 % 21 % 21 % (4) 3 1 2 (2) 1 3 — — (3) — 1 % 22 % (5) 2 2 3 (4) 1 — 3 — — 2 4 % 25 % (4) 3 — 3 (4) 1 — 4 (1) — — 2 % 23 % The Company considers the unremitted earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries indefinitely reinvested. With respect to these subsidiaries, the Company had not provided deferred taxes on unremitted earnings of approximately $233 million. The amount of unrecognized deferred tax liabilities that would be owed related to these earnings is approximately $2.5 million. As of December 31, 2021, the Company has recorded estimated deferred taxes of $9.9 million for income and withholding taxes related to the Company's foreign subsidiaries that are not permanently reinvested. The Company does not have any unrecognized deferred tax benefits, as the Company does not believe it has any positions that meet the criteria for establishing an uncertain tax position liability. In our major jurisdictions, including the United States, Belgium, Brazil, the Netherlands, Sweden, and the United Kingdom, tax years are typically subject to examination for three to five years. NOTE 8. PENSION AND POST-RETIREMENT AND OTHER BENEFIT PLANS The Company sponsors qualified and nonqualified defined benefit pension plans that together cover many of its U.S. employees. The plans provide defined benefits based on years of service and final average salary. The Company also sponsors a noncontributory plan that provides post-retirement life insurance benefits ("OPEB") to some of its U.S. employees. Non-U.S. based employees are eligible to participate in either Company-sponsored or government-sponsored benefit plans to which the Company contributes. The Company also sponsors separate defined contribution plans that cover substantially all of its U.S. employees and some non-U.S. employees. 72 The funded status of is pension plans, together with the associated balances recognized in its consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, were as follows: (In millions) Projected benefit obligation at January 1 Service cost Interest cost Actuarial (gain) loss Plan participants' contributions Benefits paid Plan amendments Currency translation adjustments Projected benefit obligation at December 31 Fair value of plan assets at January 1 Company contributions Actual return on plan assets Plan participants' contributions Benefits paid Currency translation adjustments Fair value of plan assets at December 31 Funded status of the plans (liability) at December 31 Amounts recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31 Other current liabilities Accrued pension and other post-retirement benefits, less current portion Net amount recognized 2021 2020 $ 384.0 $ 2.2 6.4 (13.8) 0.2 (16.5) — (4.8) 357.7 $ 290.8 $ 13.0 15.3 0.2 (16.5) (1.1) 301.7 $ (56.0) $ (0.9) (55.1) (56.0) $ $ $ $ $ $ 356.3 2.2 8.7 28.0 0.2 (17.4) 0.2 5.8 384.0 281.3 12.3 13.7 0.2 (17.4) 0.7 290.8 (93.2) (1.5) (91.7) (93.2) The liability associated with the OPEB plan included in the consolidated financial statements was $2.6 million and $2.8 million as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Amounts recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss at December 31, 2021 and 2020 were $196.2 million and $217.6 million, respectively for pensions, and $(0.2) million and $(0.1) million for the OPEB plan, respectively. These amounts were primarily unrecognized actuarial gains and losses. The accumulated benefit obligation for all pension plans was $350.6 million and $375.2 million at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. All pension plans had accumulated benefit obligations in excess of plan assets as of December 31, 2021. For the year ended December 31, 2021, accumulated benefit obligation for the pension plans decreased primarily due to actuarial gains incurred from the increase in discount rates driven by an increase in bond yields. For the year ended December 31, 2020, accumulated benefit obligation for the pension plans increased primarily due to actuarial loss incurred from the decrease in discount rates driven by a decrease in bond yields. Pension costs (income) for the years ended December 31, were as follows: (In millions) Service cost Interest cost Expected return on plan assets Amortization of net actuarial loss Settlement loss recognized Total costs 2021 2020 2019 $ $ 2.2 $ 6.4 (15.6) 7.7 0.1 0.8 $ 2.2 $ 8.7 (13.1) 8.1 — 5.9 $ 2.1 11.5 (15.2) 6.0 — 4.4 OPEB plan costs were not material for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019. 73 Pre-tax changes in projected benefit obligations and plan assets recognized in other comprehensive loss during 2021 for the OPEB plan were not material and for the pension plans were as follows: (In millions) Actuarial gain Amortization of net actuarial gain Net income recognized in other comprehensive income Total recognized in net periodic benefit cost and other comprehensive income Pensions (13.5) (7.8) (21.3) (20.5) $ $ $ The Company uses a corridor approach to recognize actuarial gains and losses that result from changes in actuarial assumptions. The corridor approach defers all actuarial gains and losses resulting from changes in assumptions in other accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), such as those related to changes in the discount rate and differences between actual and expected returns on plan assets. These unrecognized gains and losses are amortized when the net gains and losses exceed 10% of the higher of the market-related value of the assets or the projected benefit obligation for each respective plan. The amortization is on a straight-line basis over the life expectancy of the plan’s participants for the frozen plans and the expected remaining service periods for the other plans. Beginning in 2010, the U.S. defined benefit plans were frozen to new entrants and future benefit accruals for non-union participants were discontinued. The following weighted-average assumptions were used to determine the benefit obligations for the pension plans: Discount rate Rate of compensation increase 2021 2020 2019 2.67 % 3.77 % 2.31 % 3.07 % The following weighted-average assumptions were used to determine net periodic benefit cost for the pension plans: Discount rate Rate of compensation increase Expected rate of return on plan assets 2021 2020 2019 2.32 % 3.77 % 5.58 % 2.98 % 3.07 % 4.86 % 2.98 % 3.09 % 4.06 % 3.09 % 5.63 % The estimate of the expected rate of return on plan assets is based primarily on the historical performance of plan assets, asset allocation, current market conditions and long-term growth expectations. Plan assets The Company's pension investment strategy balances the requirements to generate returns using higher-returning assets, such as equity securities, with the need to control risk in the pension plan with less volatile assets, such as fixed-income securities. Risks include, among others, the likelihood of the pension plans being underfunded, thereby increasing their dependence on Company contributions. The assets are managed by professional investment firms and performance is evaluated against specific benchmarks. Target asset allocations and actual allocations as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 were as follows: Equity Fixed income Real estate and other Cash Target 10% - 40% 40% - 70% 0% - 15% 0% - 10% 2021 36% 59% 4% 1% 100% 2020 38% 53% 8% 1% 100% 74 Actual pension plans’ asset holdings by category and level within the fair value hierarchy are presented in the following table: As of December 31, 2021 Level 1 Total Level 2 As of December 31, 2020 Level 1 Total Level 2 $ 2.4 $ 2.4 $ — $ 1.9 $ 1.9 $ — (In millions) Cash and cash equivalents Equity securities: All caps(1) International(2) Infrastructure(3) Fixed income securities: Government securities(4) Corporate bonds(5) Real estate and other investments(6) Total assets at fair value Investments valued using NAV as a practical expedient(7) Total assets $ $ 25.6 64.8 14.8 34.6 135.1 12.7 290.0 $ 11.8 301.8 — — 14.8 25.6 64.8 — 25.4 71.6 14.2 — 8.0 — 25.2 $ 34.6 127.1 12.7 264.8 $ 25.9 128.6 23.2 290.8 $ — — 14.2 — 8.7 — 24.8 $ 25.4 71.6 — 25.9 119.9 23.2 266.0 — 290.8 $ (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) (7) Includes funds that invest in large, medium and small cap equity securities.

Includes funds that invest in investment grade bonds, high yield bonds and mortgage-backed fixed income securities. Includes funds that invest primarily in REITs, funds that invest in commodities and investments in insurance contracts held by the Company's foreign pension plans. As of December 31, 2021, the Company elected the practical expedient to characterize certain new investments which are measured at net asset values ("NAV") that have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of assets classified as Level 1 is based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The fair value of assets classified as Level 2 is based on quoted prices for similar assets or based on valuations made using inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. As of December 31, 2021, such inputs include net asset values reported at a minimum on a monthly basis by investment funds or contract values provided by the issuing insurance company. The Company is able to sell any of its investment funds with notice of no more than 30 days. For more information on the fair value hierarchy, see Note 15. Fair Value of Financial Instruments. Contributions The Company expects to contribute $13.1 million to its pension and other post-retirement benefit plans in 2022. The pension contributions will be primarily for the U.S. qualified pension plan. All of the contributions are expected to be in the form of cash. 75 Estimated future benefit payments The following table summarizes expected benefit payments from various pension benefit plans through 2031. Actual benefit payments may differ from expected benefit payments. (In millions) 2022 2023 2024 2025 2026 2027-2031 Savings Plans Pensions $ 17.5 18.2 19.1 20.9 19.9 99.7 U.S. and some international employees participate in defined contribution savings plans that the Company sponsors. These plans generally provide company matching contributions on participants’ voluntary contributions and/or company non-elective contributions. Additionally, certain highly compensated employees participate in a non-qualified deferred compensation plan, which also allows for company matching contributions and company non-elective contributions on compensation in excess of the Internal Revenue Code Section 401(a) (17) limit. The expense for matching contributions was $15.9 million, $15.1 million, and $12.9 million in 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. NOTE 9. ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS) Accumulated other comprehensive income or loss (“AOCI”) represents the cumulative balance of other comprehensive income, net of tax, as of the Balance Sheet date. For the Company, AOCI is composed of adjustments related to pension and other post-retirement benefits plans, derivatives designated as hedges, and foreign currency translation adjustments. Changes in the AOCI balances for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 by component are shown in the following table: (In millions) Balance as of January 1, 2020 Pension and Other Post- retirement Benefits(1) Derivatives Designated as Hedges(1) Foreign Currency Translation(1) Total(1) $ (147.0) $ 0.1 $ (45.9) $ (192.8) Other comprehensive income (loss) before reclassification Amounts reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (20.4) 6.0 (5.0) 1.1 (6.7) (2.1) (32.1) 5.0 Balance as of December 31, 2020 $ (161.4) $ (3.8) $ (54.7) $ (219.9) Other comprehensive income (loss) before reclassification Amounts reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income 10.1 5.8 4.3 1.3 3.1 (2.1) 17.5 5.0 Balance as of December 31, 2021 $ (145.5) $ 1.8 $ (53.7) $ (197.4) (1) All amounts are net of income taxes. Reclassification adjustments from AOCI into earnings for pension and other post-retirement benefits plans for the year ended December 31, 2021 were $7.8 million of charges to pension (income) expense, other than service cost, net of $2.0 million income tax benefit. Reclassification adjustments for derivatives designated as hedges for the year ended December 31, 2021 were $1.8 million of interest expense, net of $0.5 million income tax benefit. Reclassification adjustments for foreign currency translation related to net investment hedges for the year ended December 31, 2021 were $2.9 million of benefit in interest expense, net of $0.8 million in provision for income taxes. Reclassification adjustments from AOCI into earnings for pension and other post-retirement benefits plans for the year ended December 31, 2020 were $8.1 million of charges to pension (income) expense, other than service cost, net of $2.1 million in provision for income taxes. Reclassification adjustments for derivatives designated as hedges for the year ended December 31, 2020 were $1.5 million of interest expense, net of $0.4 million income tax benefit. Reclassification adjustments for foreign currency translation related to net investment hedges for the year ended December 31, 2020 were $2.9 million of benefit in interest expense, net of $0.8 million in provision for income taxes. 76 NOTE 10. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense and related income tax effects for the years ended December 31, as follows: (In millions) Stock-based compensation expense Tax benefit (expense) recorded in consolidated statements of income 2021 2020 2019 $ $ 6.5 $ 2.2 $ 1.9 $ (0.1) $ 9.4 4.6 As of December 31, 2021, there was $11.5 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for outstanding awards expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.9 years. Incentive Compensation Plan The Company sponsors a stock-based compensation plan (the “Incentive Compensation Plan”) that provides certain incentives and awards to its officers, employees, directors and consultants. The Incentive Compensation Plan allows the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors to make various types of awards to eligible individuals. Awards that may be issued include common stock, stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and stock units. Restricted stock unit awards specify any applicable performance goals, the time and rate of vesting and such other provisions as determined by the Committee. Restricted stock units generally vest after 3 years of service, but may also vest upon a change of control as defined in the Incentive Compensation Plan. The 2017 Incentive Compensation Plan was approved by stockholders in May 2017. The 2017 Incentive Compensation Plan replaced the prior incentive compensation plan (the “2008 Incentive Compensation Plan”). The aggregate number of shares of common stock that are authorized for issuance under the 2017 Incentive Compensation Plan is (i) 1,000,000 shares, plus (ii) the number of shares of common stock that remained available for issuance under the 2008 Incentive Compensation Plan on the effective date of the 2017 Incentive Compensation Plan, plus (iii) the number of shares of common stock that were subject to outstanding awards under the 2008 Incentive Compensation Plan on the effective date of the 2017 Incentive Compensation Plan that are canceled, forfeited, returned or withheld without the issuance of shares thereunder. Impact of Retirement on Outstanding Awards In the event of an executive officer’s retirement from the Company upon or after attaining age 62 and a specified number of years of service, any nonvested awards remain outstanding after retirement and vest on the originally scheduled vesting date. This permits flexibility in retirement planning, permits the Company to provide an incentive for the vesting period and does not penalize employees who receive awards as incentive compensation when they retire. Restricted Stock Units A summary of the nonvested restricted stock units as of December 31, 2021 and changes during the year is presented below: Nonvested at December 31, 2020 Granted Vested Forfeited Nonvested at December 31, 2021 Shares Weighted-Average Grant-Date Fair Value 394,713 $ 119,443 $ (56,572) $ (51,178) $ 406,406 $ 56.24 142.32 105.11 111.78 70.31 The Company grants time-based and performance-based restricted stock units that typically vest after three years, but can vary based on the discretion of the Committee. The fair value of these awards is determined using the market value of common stock on the grant date. Compensation cost is recognized over the lesser of the stated vesting period or the period until the employee meets the retirement eligible age and service requirements under the plan. 77 For performance-based restricted stock units awards made in 2021, 2020, and 2019, the number of shares to be issued is dependent upon performance over the three year period ending December 31st of the respective term, with respect to cumulative diluted earnings per share from continuing operations and average operating return on invested capital (ROIC). ROIC is defined as net income plus after tax net interest expense divided by average invested capital, which is an average of total shareholders equity plus debt plus future pension expenses held in AOCI less cash and cash equivalents. Based on results achieved in 2021, 2020, and 2019, and the forecasted amounts over the remainder of the performance period, the Company expects to issue a total of 28,712, 12,205, 5,088, and 3,088, shares at the vesting dates in March 2024, May 2023, March 2023 and April 2022, respectively. Compensation cost has been measured in 2021 based on these expectations. The following summarizes values for restricted stock activity in each of the years in the three year period ended December 31: Weighted-average grant-date fair value of restricted stock units granted Fair value of restricted stock vested (in millions) 2021 2020 2019 $ $ 142.32 $ 7.9 $ 96.81 $ 6.5 $ 91.92 20.7 NOTE 11. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY The following is a summary of capital stock activity (in shares) for the year ended December 31, 2021: December 31, 2020 Stock awards issued December 31, 2021 Common stock outstanding Common stock held in treasury 31,729,736 40,231 31,769,967 11,871 (11,871) — On December 1, 2021, the Board authorized a share repurchase program of up to $30 million of the Company's common stock, effective January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2024, which replaced the prior share repurchase program. Shares may be purchased from time to time in open market transactions, subject to market conditions. Repurchased shares become treasury shares, which are accounted for using the cost method and are intended to be used for future awards under the Incentive Compensation Plan. On August 10, 2018, the Board authorized a share repurchase program of up to $30 million of the Company's common stock, effective January 1, 2019 through December 31, 2021, which replaced the prior share repurchase program. There were no share repurchases under this program, which has now terminated. NOTE 12. REVENUE RECOGNITION Transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations The Company has estimated that $1,006.7 million in revenue is expected to be recognized in the future periods related to remaining performance obligations from the Company's contracts with customers outstanding as of December 31, 2021. The Company expects to complete these obligations and recognize 90% as revenue in 2022, 9% in 2023, and the remainder after 2023. 78 Disaggregation of Revenue In the following table, revenue is disaggregated by type of good or service, primary geographical market, and timing of recognition for each reportable segment. The table also includes a reconciliation of the disaggregated revenue to total revenue of each reportable segment. 2021 December 31, 2020 2019 JBT FoodTech JBT AeroTech JBT FoodTech JBT AeroTech JBT FoodTech JBT AeroTech 661.6 $ 178.2 $ 610.7 $ 155.4 $ 586.6 $ 738.8 289.3 623.8 337.9 742.8 1,400.4 $ 467.5 $ 1,234.5 $ 493.3 $ 1,329.4 $ 200.2 415.7 615.9 776.6 $ 416.9 $ 666.5 $ 423.9 $ 703.3 $ 500.7 364.0 174.2 85.6 38.8 7.7 4.1 365.3 135.3 67.4 41.5 23.9 4.0 376.7 171.0 78.4 81.6 27.3 6.3 $ 1,400.4 $ 467.5 $ 1,234.5 $ 493.3 $ 1,329.4 $ 615.9 $ $ 661.1 $ 218.1 $ 593.5 $ 251.7 $ 618.1 $ 739.3 249.4 641.0 241.6 711.3 1,400.4 $ 467.5 $ 1,234.5 $ 493.3 $ 1,329.4 $ 370.1 245.8 615.9 (In millions) Type of Good or Service Recurring (1) Non-recurring (1) Total Geographical Region (2) North America $ $ $ Europe, Middle East and Africa Asia Pacific Latin America Total Timing of Recognition Point in Time Over Time Total (1) Aftermarket parts and services and operating lease revenues are considered recurring revenue. Non-recurring revenue includes new equipment and installation. (2) Geographical region represents the region in which the end customer resides. Contract balances The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in trade receivables, contract assets, and advance and progress payments (contract liabilities). Contract assets exist when revenue recognition occurs prior to billings. Contract assets are transferred to trade receivables when the right to payment becomes unconditional (i.e., when receipt of the amount is dependent only on the passage of time). Conversely, the Company often receives payments from its customers before revenue is recognized, resulting in contract liabilities. These assets and liabilities are reported on the Balance Sheet as contract assets and within advance and progress payments, respectively, on a contract-by-contract net basis at the end of each reporting period. Contract asset and liability balances for the period were as follows: (In millions) Contract Assets Contract Liabilities Balances as of December 31, 2021 December 31, 2020 December 31, 2019 $ 94.4 $ 178.0 68.3 $ 123.8 74.4 92.5 The revenue recognized during the year ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 that was included in contract liabilities at the beginning of the period amounted to $105.2 million, $74.9 million, and $112.5 million respectively. Additionally, the Company assumed contract liabilities from acquisitions in the amount of $2.5 million in the year 2021 and of $10.1 million in the year 2019. The remainder of change from December 31, 2021, December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 is driven by the timing of advance and milestone payments received from customers, customer returns, and fulfillment of performance obligations. There were no significant changes in the contract balances other than those described above. 79 NOTE 13. EARNINGS PER SHARE The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") from continuing operations for the respective periods and basic and diluted shares outstanding: 2021 2020 2019 (In millions, except per share data) Basic earnings per share: Income from continuing operations Weighted average number of shares outstanding Basic earnings per share from continuing operations Diluted earnings per share: Income from continuing operations Weighted average number of shares outstanding Effect of dilutive securities: Restricted stock units Total shares and dilutive securities $ $ $ 118.4 $ 108.8 $ 32.0 3.70 $ 32.0 3.40 $ 118.4 $ 108.8 $ 32.0 0.1 32.1 32.0 0.1 32.1 129.3 31.9 4.05 129.3 31.9 0.1 32.0 4.03 Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations $ 3.69 $ 3.39 $ NOTE 14. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND CREDIT RISK Derivative financial instruments All derivatives are recorded as other assets or liabilities in the Balance Sheets at their respective fair values. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the unrealized gain or loss related to the derivatives are recorded in Other comprehensive income (loss) until the transaction affects earnings. The Company assesses both at inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivative in the hedging transaction has been, and will continue to be, highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged item. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that do not meet the criteria for designation as a hedge are recognized in earnings. Foreign Exchange: The Company manufactures and sells products in a number of countries throughout the world and, as a result, the Company is exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company's major foreign currency exposures involve the markets in Western Europe, South America and Asia. Some sales and purchase contracts contain embedded derivatives due to the nature of doing business in certain jurisdictions, which the Company takes into consideration as part of its risk management policy. The purpose of foreign currency hedging activities is to manage the economic impact of exchange rate volatility associated with anticipated foreign currency purchases and sales made in the normal course of business. The Company primarily utilizes forward foreign exchange contracts with maturities of less than 2 years in managing this foreign exchange rate risk. The Company has not designated these forward foreign exchange contracts, which had a notional value at December 31, 2021 of $1,709.7 million, as hedges and therefore does not apply hedge accounting. The following table presents the fair value of foreign currency derivatives and embedded derivatives included within the Balance Sheets: (In millions) Total Derivative Assets Derivative Liabilities Derivative Assets Derivative Liabilities $ 10.6 $ 9.4 $ 10.0 $ 12.7 As of December 31, 2021 As of December 31, 2020 A master netting arrangement allows counterparties to net settle amounts owed to each other as a result of separate offsetting derivative transactions. The Company enters into master netting arrangements with its counterparties when possible to mitigate credit risk in derivative transactions by permitting it to net settle for transactions with the same counterparty. However, the Company does not net settle with such counterparties. As a result, the Company presents derivatives at their gross fair values in the Balance Sheets. 80 As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, information related to these offsetting arrangements was as follows: (In millions) Offsetting of Assets As of December 31, 2021 Gross Amounts of Recognized Assets Gross Amounts Offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Amount Presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Amount Subject to Master Netting Agreement Net Amount Derivatives $ 17.5 $ — $ 17.5 $ (7.3) $ 10.2 Offsetting of Liabilities As of December 31, 2021 Gross Amounts of Recognized Liabilities Gross Amounts Offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Amount Presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Amount Subject to Master Netting Agreement Net Amount Derivatives $ 9.1 $ — $ 9.1 $ (7.3) $ 1.8 (In millions) Offsetting of Assets As of December 31, 2020 Gross Amounts of Recognized Assets Gross Amounts Offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Amount Presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Amount Subject to Master Netting Agreement Net Amount Derivatives $ 10.0 $ — $ 10.0 $ (8.6) $ 1.4 Offsetting of Liabilities As of December 31, 2020 Gross Amounts of Recognized Liabilities Gross Amounts Offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Amount Presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets Amount Subject to Master Netting Agreement Net Amount Derivatives $ 16.6 $ — $ 16.6 $ (8.6) $ 8.0 The following table presents the location and amount of the loss on foreign currency derivatives and on the remeasurement of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, as well as the net impact recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income: Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments Location of Gain (Loss) Recognized in Income Amount of Gain (Loss) Recognized in Income (In millions) Foreign exchange contracts Foreign exchange contracts Foreign exchange contracts Total Remeasurement of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies Net loss on foreign currency transactions Revenue Cost of sales Selling, general and administrative expense 2021 2020 2019 $ (1.1) $ 2.7 $ (2.7) (0.1) 1.0 (3.1) 2.5 $ (0.2) $ 2.1 $ 1.1 (1.7) (3.3) (0.8) (3.1) 1.1 $ (1.0) $ (1.0) $ (2.2) Interest Rates: The Company has entered into four interest rate swaps executed in March 2020 with a combined notional amount of $200 million expiring in April 2025, and one interest rate swap executed in May 2020 with a notional amount of $50 million expiring in May 2025. These interest rate swaps fix the interest rate applicable to certain of the Company's variable-rate debt. The agreements swap one-month LIBOR for fixed rates. The Company has designated these swaps as cash flow hedges and all changes in fair value of the swaps are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). At December 31, 2021, the fair value of these derivatives designated as cash flow hedges were recorded in the Balance Sheet as other assets of $2.4 million and as accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax, of $1.7 million. Net Investment hedges: The Company has entered into cross currency swap agreements that synthetically swap $116.4 million of fixed rate debt to Euro denominated fixed rate debt. The agreements are designated as net investment hedges for accounting purposes. Accordingly, the gains or losses on these derivative instruments are included in the foreign currency translation component of other 81 comprehensive income until the net investment is sold, diluted, or liquidated. Coupons received for the cross currency swaps are excluded from the net investment hedge effectiveness assessment and are recorded in interest expense, net on the Consolidated Statements of Income. For the year ended December 31, 2021, gains recorded in interest expense, net under the cross currency swap agreements were $2.9 million. At December 31, 2021, the fair value of these derivatives designated as net investment hedges were recorded in the Balance Sheet as other assets of $5.5 million and as accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax, of $4.1 million. Refer to Note 15. Fair Value of Financial Instruments, for a description of how the values of the above financial instruments are determined. Credit risk By their nature, financial instruments involve risk including credit risk for non-performance by counterparties. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk primarily consist of trade receivables and derivative contracts. The Company manages the credit risk on financial instruments by transacting only with financially secure counterparties, requiring credit approvals and establishing credit limits, and monitoring counterparties’ financial condition. The Company's maximum exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the counterparty, for all receivables and derivative contracts as of December 31, 2021, is limited to the amount outstanding on the financial instrument. Allowances for losses are established based on collectability assessments. NOTE 15. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The fair value framework requires the categorization of assets and liabilities into three levels based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price the assets or liabilities. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment. The three levels are defined as follows: • • • Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Company can assess at the measurement date. Level 2: Observable inputs other than those included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. For example, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets. Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability. Financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows: As of December 31, 2021 As of December 31, 2020 (In millions) Assets: Investments Derivatives Total assets Liabilities: Derivatives Contingent Consideration Total liabilities $ $ $ $ Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 13.5 $ 13.5 $ — $ — $ 12.3 $ 12.3 $ — $ 18.4 — 18.4 10.0 — 10.0 31.9 $ 13.5 $ 18.4 $ — $ 22.3 $ 12.3 $ 10.0 $ — — 9.4 $ — $ 9.4 $ — $ 18.8 $ — $ 18.8 $ — — — — 9.4 $ — $ 9.4 $ — — 19.1 — — $ 37.9 $ — $ 18.8 $ 19.1 19.1 Investments represent securities held in a trust for the non-qualified deferred compensation plan. Investments are classified as trading securities and are valued based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that the Company has the ability to access. Investments are reported separately in Other assets on the Balance Sheets. Investments include an unrealized gain of $0.5 million as of December 31, 2021 and unrealized gain of $1.1 million as of December 31, 2020. The Company uses the income approach to measure the fair value of derivative instruments on a recurring basis. This approach calculates the present value of the future cash flow by measuring the change between the derivative contract rate and the published 82 market indicative currency rate, multiplied by the contract notional values, and applying an appropriate discount rate as well as a factor of credit risk. The purchase agreement for the Company's acquisition of Proseal, in the second quarter of 2019, included contingent consideration due to the sellers of Proseal upon achievement of certain earnings targets. The contingent consideration obligation included in the Balance Sheet as other current liabilities as of December 31, 2020 was paid during the quarter ended June 30, 2021. Following table provides a summary of changes in fair value of contingent consideration during the year ended December 31, 2021: For year ended December 31, 2021 December 31, 2020 Beginning balance Measurement adjustments recorded to earnings Cash Payments Foreign currency translation adjustment Ending balance $ $ 19.1 $ — (19.4) 0.3 — $ 17.4 1.1 — 0.6 19.1 The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and payables, as well as financial instruments included in other current assets and other current liabilities, approximate fair values because of their short-term maturities. The carrying values and the estimated fair values of debt financial instruments as of December 31 are as follows: (In millions) Convertible senior notes Revolving credit facility, expires December 14, 2026 Other 2021 2020 Carrying Value Estimated Fair Value Carrying Value Estimated Fair Value $ 392.7 $ 448.8 $ — $ 282.9 — 282.9 — 523.9 2.4 — 523.9 2.4 The carrying values of the Company's revolving credit facility recorded in long-term debt on the Balance Sheet approximate their fair values due to their variable interest rates. The fair value of the Convertible senior notes is estimated using Level 2 inputs as they are not registered securities nor listed on any securities exchange but may be traded by qualified institutional buyers. NOTE 16. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES In the normal course of business, the Company is at times subject to pending and threatened legal actions, some for which the relief or damages sought may be substantial. Although the Company is not able to predict the outcome of such actions, after reviewing all pending and threatened actions with counsel and based on information currently available, management believes that the outcome of such actions, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on results of operations or financial position. However, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of such matters, if unfavorable, may be material to results of operations in a particular future period as the time and amount of any resolution of such actions and its relationship to the future results of operations are not currently known. Liabilities are established for pending legal claims only when losses associated with the claims are judged to be probable, and the loss can be reasonably estimated. In many lawsuits and arbitrations, it is not considered probable that a liability has been incurred or not possible to estimate the ultimate or minimum amount of that liability until the case is close to resolution, in which case no liability would be recognized until that time. Guarantees and Product Warranties In the ordinary course of business with customers, vendors and others, the Company issues standby letters of credit, performance bonds, surety bonds and other guarantees. These financial instruments, which totaled approximately $145.3 million at December 31, 2021, represent guarantees of future performance. The Company also has provided approximately $6.3 million of bank guarantees and letters of credit to secure a portion of its existing financial obligations. The majority of these financial instruments expire within two years; the Company expects to replace them through the issuance of new or the extension of existing letters of credit and surety bonds. In some instances, the Company guarantees its customers’ financing arrangements. The Company is responsible for payment of any unpaid amounts but will receive indemnification from third parties for ninety-five percent of the contract values. In addition, the 83 Company generally retains recourse to the equipment sold. As of December 31, 2021, the gross value of such arrangements was $0.7 million, of which the Company's net exposure under such guarantees was less than $0.1 million. The Company provides warranties of various lengths and terms to certain customers based on standard terms and conditions and negotiated agreements. The Company provides for the estimated cost of warranties at the time revenue is recognized for products where reliable, historical experience of warranty claims and costs exists. The Company also provides a warranty liability when additional specific obligations are identified. The warranty obligation reflected in other current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets is based on historical experience by product and considers failure rates and the related costs in correcting a product failure.

BUSINESS SEGMENTS Operating segments for the Company are determined based on information used by the chief operating decision maker (CODM) in deciding how to evaluate performance and allocate resources to each of the segments. JBT’s CODM is the Chief Executive Officer (CEO). While there are many measures the CEO reviews in this capacity, the key segment measures reviewed include operating profit, EBITDA, adjusted when applicable, and EBITDA margins. Reportable segments are: • • JBT FoodTech—provides comprehensive solutions throughout the food production value chain extending from primary processing through packaging systems for a large variety of food and beverage groups, including poultry, beef, pork, seafood, ready-to-eat meals, fruits, vegetables, dairy, bakery, pet foods, soups, sauces, and juices. JBT AeroTech— supplies customized solutions and services used for applications in the air transportation industry, including airport authorities, airlines, airfreight, ground handling companies, militaries and defense contractors.

RESTRUCTURING Restructuring charges primarily consist of employee separation benefits under existing severance programs, foreign statutory termination benefits, certain one-time termination benefits, contract termination costs, asset impairment charges and other costs that are associated with restructuring actions. Certain restructuring charges are accrued prior to payments made in accordance with applicable guidance. For such charges, the amounts are determined based on estimates prepared at the time the restructuring actions were approved by management. Inventory write offs due to restructuring are reported in Cost of products and are included in each segment's operating profit given the nature of the item. All other restructuring charges that are reported as Restructuring expenses are excluded from the calculation of each segment's operating profit. In the first quarter of 2018, the Company implemented a restructuring plan ("2018 restructuring plan") to address its global processes to flatten the organization, improve efficiency and better leverage general and administrative resources primarily within the JBT FoodTech segment. The Company recognized cumulative restructuring charges of $62.2 million, net of cumulative releases of the related liability of $11.9 million. The Company completed this plan in the third quarter of 2020 and transferred the remaining liability into the 2020 restructuring plan in the fourth quarter of 2020. In the first quarter of 2020, the Company implemented an immaterial restructuring plan primarily within the JBT AeroTech segment. The Company recognized cumulative restructuring charges of $2.4 million related to severance, net of a cumulative release of related liability of $0.2 million. The Company completed this plan in the third quarter of 2020 and transferred the remaining liability into the 2020 restructuring plan in the fourth quarter of 2020. In the third quarter of 2020, the Company implemented a restructuring plan ("2020 restructuring plan") for manufacturing capacity rationalization affecting both the JBT FoodTech and JBT AeroTech segments. During the third quarter of 2021, the Company had revised its total estimated costs in connection with this plan, with the original estimate of $9 million to $10 million for FoodTech to be recognized by end of 2021, to a range of $10 million to $11 million to be completed by second quarter of 2022. These changes are due to a delay in transfer of the manufacturing process under this plan. The total estimated cost for AeroTech in connection with this plan is approximately $6 million. The Company recognized restructuring charges of $17.2 million, net of a cumulative release of the related liability of $1.5 million, through December 31, 2021. The following table details the cumulative restructuring charges reported in operating income for the active restructuring plans since the implementation of these plans: Cumulative Amount Balance as of December 31, 2020 As of the Quarter Ended March 31, 2021 June 30, 2021 September 30, 2021 December 31, 2021 Cumulative Amount Balance as of December 31, 2021 (In millions) 2020 restructuring plan Severance and related expense $ 7.0 $ 0.2 $ 0.8 $ 0.2 $ 1.0 $ Inventory write-off Employee overlap costs Retention bonus Other 1.9 0.3 0.3 0.7 — 0.4 0.4 0.2 — 0.3 — 0.5 — 0.7 0.1 0.2 0.2 0.4 (0.3) 1.7 9.2 2.1 2.1 0.5 3.3 Total Restructuring charges $ 10.2 $ 1.2 $ 1.6 $ 1.2 $ 3.0 $ 17.2 Restructuring charges, net of related release of liability, is reported within the following financial statement line items of the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income: (In millions) Cost of products(1) Restructuring expense Total restructuring charge Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2021 2020 2019 $ $ 0.2 $ 5.6 5.8 $ 1.9 $ 12.1 14.0 $ — 13.5 13.5 (1) Restructuring charge reported in Cost of products is related to an inventory write-off resulting from the 2020 restructuring plan. 90 Liability balances for restructuring activities are included in other current liabilities in the accompanying Balance Sheets.

NOTE 20. MANAGEMENT SUCCESSION COSTS On September 24, 2020, the Company initiated a management succession plan after Tom Giacomini, the Company's former CEO, resigned from the Company. In connection with this succession plan, the Company entered into a separation agreement with Mr. Giacomini that provided for a lump sum separation payment of $6.4 million. This separation cost of $6.4 million was paid and recognized as Selling, general, and administrative expense in the consolidated statement of income during the year ended December 31, 2020. In connection with Mr. Giacomini’s departure from the Company, 96,427 nonvested shares under the Company’s stock-based compensation plans were forfeited. Accordingly, the Company recorded a benefit of $2.9 million associated with the reversal of previously accrued amounts for these unvested shares as stock based compensation expense within Selling, general, and administrative expense during the year ended December 31, 2020. In December 2020, our Board of Directors named Brian Deck, former Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, as the President and Chief Executive Officer, and Matt Meister, former Vice President and Chief Financial Officer for JBT Protein, as the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company. In connection with these transitions, the Company recognized a one-time compensation cost of $0.5 million and other related costs of $0.8 million as Selling, general, and administrative expense in the consolidated statement of income during the year ended December 31, 2020. NOTE 21. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS The Company has entered into an agreement to lease a manufacturing facility in Columbus, Ohio from an entity owned by certain of the Company's employees who were former owners or employees of its newly acquired business. The lease commenced on September 1, 2019, with an eight year term.

DISCLOSURE None. 93 ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES (a) (b) Disclosure Controls and Procedures As of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, management of the Company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2021 to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and (2) accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting Internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and includes those policies and procedures that: (i) (ii) (iii) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of assets of the Company; provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO"). Based on that evaluation, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is effective as of December 31, 2021, based on the criteria in Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the COSO. We excluded CMS Technology, Inc (“Prevenio”), Urtasun Tecnología Alimentaria S.L. (“Urtasun”), and AutoCoding Systems Ltd. (“ACS”) from our assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021 because these entities were acquired by the Company in purchase business combinations during 2021. The total assets and total revenues of Prevenio, Urtasun, and ACS, wholly-owned subsidiaries, excluded from our assessment represent 2.2% and 1.6%, respectively, of the related consolidated amounts as of and for the year-end ended December 31, 2021. Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, has audited the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, as stated in their report which is included on page 50. (c) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting In the ordinary course of business, the Company reviews its internal control over financial reporting and makes changes to its systems and processes to improve such controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that the Company maintains effective internal control over financial reporting. Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more efficient systems, automating manual processes and updating existing systems. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in the evaluation for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. 94 ITEM 9B.

All statements that are not historical facts, including statements about our beliefs or expectations regarding future performance, strategic plans, income, earnings, cash flows, restructuring and optimization plans and related cost savings, operating improvements, and covenant compliance are forward-looking statements. You can identify these forward-looking statements by the use of forward-looking words such as “outlook,” “believes,” “expects,” “potential,” “continues,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “predicts,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” “foresees” or the negative version of those words or other comparable words and phrases. Any forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report are based upon our historical performance and on current plans, estimates and expectations. The inclusion of this forward-looking information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that the future plans, estimates or expectations contemplated by us will be achieved. There are factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements.
