About
Dover Corporation is a Downers Grove, Illinois-based diversified industrial manufacturer — publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: DOV) as an S&P 500 Industrials component — designing and manufacturing specialized equipment, components, and systems for biopharma, food and beverage, energy, digital printing, and clean energy markets through approximately 25,000 employees in 30+ countries. In fiscal year 2024, Dover reported revenue of approximately $7.7 billion with operating margins around 20%, demonstrating the consistent margin profile of Dover's portfolio of niche manufacturing businesses, each holding leading positions in served niches. A key leadership transition occurred at the CFO level: Brad Cerepak, Senior Vice President and CFO since May 2011, announced retirement effective January 31, 2025, with Christopher Woenker (previously CFO of the Engineered Products and Climate & Sustainability Technologies segments) succeeding. CEO Richard Tobin has positioned Dover around five operating segments: Engineered Products (vehicle service, industrial automation, aerospace), Clean Energy & Fueling (fuel and vehicle wash equipment), Imaging & Identification (digital printing systems, product identification), Pumps & Process Solutions (biopharma fluid path components, precision pumps, food and beverage process equipment), and Climate & Sustainability Technologies (heat exchangers, CO₂ refrigeration systems, data center thermal management). Dover's Climate & Sustainability Technologies segment has emerged as a high-growth platform through data center liquid cooling — the heat exchangers and cooling systems required for high-density AI server racks that air cooling cannot dissipate.
