Allegion plc (ticker: ALLE), a global provider of security products and solutions like door hardware, locks, and electronic access control systems, recently filed its quarterly report for the period ending September 30, 2025. For anyone interested in the industrial sector and the health of the construction market, this 10-Q filing offers a detailed look at the company's performance. Let's break down the key numbers and what they tell us.
For the third quarter of 2025, Allegion reported net revenues of $1.07 billion, a robust 10.7% increase from the $967 million recorded in the same period last year. This growth wasn't just a result of one factor; it was a balanced mix of higher prices (+4.0%), increased sales volume (+1.9%), a significant contribution from recent acquisitions (+3.9%), and favorable currency exchange rates (+0.9%).
On the bottom line, net earnings grew to $188.4 million, or $2.18 per share (diluted), up from $174.2 million, or $1.99 per share, a year ago.
To better understand how Allegion's revenue flows through its costs and expenses to generate profit, the following chart visualizes the company's income statement for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Allegion's business is split into two primary segments: Allegion Americas and Allegion International. Their third-quarter performances highlight different strategic drivers.
Allegion Americas: The larger and more profitable segment continued its steady performance. It posted revenues of $844 million, up 7.9% year-over-year. This growth was primarily organic, driven by strong pricing and higher volumes. The segment's operating margin, a measure of profitability, remained impressive, ticking up slightly to 28.7%. This indicates strong operational efficiency and pricing power in its core market.
Allegion International: This segment was the star of top-line growth, with revenues surging 22.5% to $226 million. However, the story here is one of inorganic growth. Recent acquisitions were the main catalyst, contributing 13.6% to the revenue increase. While this expansion is impressive, it came at a cost. The segment's operating margin declined from 9.7% to 8.7%, pressured by costs related to integrating new businesses, as well as inflation and investment spending that outpaced price increases.
The filing makes it clear that acquisitions are a central part of Allegion's current strategy. The company spent $594 million on acquiring businesses in the first nine months of 2025, a sharp increase from $121 million during the same period in 2024. This activity has reshaped its balance sheet, significantly boosting assets like goodwill (from $1.5 billion to $1.9 billion) and intangible assets (from $569 million to $836 million) since the end of 2024.
To fund this expansion, Allegion has been putting its capital to work. The company's cash reserves have decreased, and it drew $99 million from its revolving credit facility. While growing through acquisitions can accelerate market penetration and add new technologies, it also introduces challenges, namely the complex task of integrating disparate operations and company cultures.
Allegion's Q3 2025 results paint a picture of a company in expansion mode. The core Americas business remains a strong and profitable foundation, while an aggressive acquisition spree is rapidly growing the International segment's footprint.
The key challenge for Allegion will be to successfully integrate its newly acquired companies and translate that impressive revenue growth in the International segment into stronger profitability. Investors will be closely watching whether the company can improve its international margins in the coming quarters, which will be the ultimate test of its acquisition strategy's success.
