Vontier's demand for products and services exhibits some seasonality. Adjusted free cash flow can be below "normal seasonality" due to timing issues such as semiannual bond interest payments, extra payroll runs, and higher incentive payouts, which are expected to normalize over the year. Shipment timing of certain products, like the vehicle identification system, can cause fluctuations in core sales growth between quarters.
