Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

INTRODUCTION

PHINIA is a diversified industrial supplier and global leader in the development of fuel systems, electrical systems, and aftermarket solutions, with a strong portfolio of trusted brands that includes DELPHI®, DELCO REMY®, and HARTRIDGE™. With over 100 years of manufacturing expertise and industry relationships, PHINIA has approximately 12,500 talented employees and over 40 locations in 20 countries and is headquartered in Auburn Hills, Michigan, USA. PHINIA systems and solutions are designed to keep combustion engines operating at peak performance across a variety of applications: medium- and heavy-duty commercial vehicle (on-road vehicles used for commercial transport classified class 4–8, 14,001 pounds or heavier); light commercial vehicle (on-road vehicles used for commercial transport classified class 1–3, 14,000 pounds or lighter); light passenger vehicles (on-road vehicles used primarily for carrying passengers); and off-highway, industrial, and other (including construction and agricultural machinery, vocational vehicles, marine, industrial applications, power generation, and aerospace and defense). PHINIA’s service solutions include vehicle repair and replacement parts, offering both new and remanufactured products through the original equipment manufacturer dealer network and the independent aftermarket channel.

Acquisition of Swedish Electromagnet Invest AB (SEM)

On August 1, 2025, PHINIA completed the acquisition of Swedish Electromagnet Invest AB (SEM), a provider of advanced natural gas, hydrogen and other alternative fuel ignition systems, injector stators and linear position sensors, for $47 million, comprised of $15 million of cash consideration and $32 million cash used to extinguish debt assumed through the acquisition. See Note 2, “Acquisition”, for further discussion.

Key Trends and Economic Factors

The global economy continues to grapple with semi-conductor shortages, supply chain disruptions, and economic and geopolitical tensions. These factors may affect production, pricing, and consumer demand. In addition, evolving trade restrictions, including export controls, and increases in tariffs could have a material impact on our business, financial condition, or results of operations, including increasing our input costs and decreasing the demand for our products. Although the nature of these trade restrictions and tariffs continue to change, they increase the risk for elevated inflation more generally, which may drive an increase in our other input costs.

Outlook

We expect improved earnings and cash generation in 2026, as we expect foreign currency, operational efficiencies, and share gains to more than offset a softening original equipment (OE) market. Continued economic and geopolitical uncertainty is expected to continue to impact light vehicle (LV) volumes, which are expected to decline by mid-single percentages in our key markets. Commercial vehicle (CV) volumes are expected to remain flat in our key markets. Assuming constant foreign exchange rates and excluding sales from acquisitions, we expect a modest increase in sales. Additionally, we expect to continue to be impacted by other macroeconomic challenges in 2026, which may include but are not limited to elevated inflation, supply chain constraints, market volatility, higher tariffs (particularly in Mexico and China), evolving trade restrictions, government shutdowns, geopolitical tensions, and changes in international trade relations.

Despite the near-term uncertainties, the Company maintains a positive long-term outlook for its global business and is committed to new product development and strategic investments to support its product leadership and growth strategies. There are several trends that are driving the Company’s long-term growth that management expects to continue, including expansion in the CV market, growth in overall vehicle parc that supports aftermarket demand, increased consumer interest in hybrid and plug-in hybrid

electric vehicles, adoption of additional product offerings enabling zero- and lower-carbon fuel solutions for combustion vehicles, and continued expansion in the aerospace and defense industry. In addition, we believe we are well positioned to continue to expand our differentiated offerings and capabilities across electronics, software and complete systems.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This Form 10-Q contains information about PHINIA’s financial results that is not presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). Such non-GAAP financial measures are reconciled to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in this Form 10-Q. The reconciliations include all information reasonably available to the Company at the date of this Form 10-Q and the adjustments that management can reasonably predict.

Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to management, investors, and banking institutions in their analysis of the Company's business and operating performance. Management also uses this information for operational planning and decision-making purposes.

Non-GAAP financial measures are not and should not be considered a substitute for any GAAP measure. Additionally, because not all companies use identical calculations, the non-GAAP financial measures as presented by PHINIA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Equity in affiliates’ earnings, net of tax

Equity in affiliates’ earnings, net of tax was $5 million and $4 million in each of the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. This line item is driven by the results of the Company’s unconsolidated joint venture.

Interest income

Interest income was $2 million and $4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The interest income is primarily related to interest earned on funds held in money market, local overnight deposits, and short term investments.

Interest expense

Interest expense was $20 million and $19 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. See Note 13, “Notes Payable and Debt”, for further discussion.

Provision for income taxes

Provision for income taxes was $20 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, resulting in an effective tax rate of 35%. This is compared to $24 million, or 48%, for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2026 decreased as compared to the prior year as a result of an uncertain tax position recorded discretely in the three month period ended March 31, 2025 that did not recur in the three month period ended March 31, 2026.

For further details, see Note 7, “Income Taxes,” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

Net earnings per diluted share and adjusted net earnings per diluted share

The Company’s net earnings per diluted share was $0.96 and $0.63 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The Company’s adjusted net earnings per diluted share was $1.29 and $0.94 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The Company defines adjusted net earnings per diluted share, a non-GAAP measure, as net earnings per diluted share adjusted to exclude: (i) the impact of restructuring expense, separation-related costs, merger and acquisition costs, impairment charges and other gains, losses and tax effects and adjustments not reflective of the Company’s ongoing operations; and (ii) acquisition-related intangibles amortization expense because it pertains to non-cash expenses that the Company does not use to evaluate core operating performance. Management believes that adjusted net earnings per diluted share is useful to investors in assessing the Company’s ongoing financial performance, as it provides improved comparability between periods through the exclusion of certain items that management believes are not indic

Item 7.    Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

INTRODUCTION

PHINIA is a leader in the development, design and manufacture of integrated components and systems that are designed to optimize performance, enhance efficiency and reduce emissions in combustion and hybrid propulsion systems for commercial vehicles and industrial applications (medium-duty and heavy-duty trucks, buses and other off-highway construction, marine, agricultural and aerospace and defense), light commercial vehicles (vans and trucks) and light passenger vehicles (passenger cars, mini-vans, cross-overs and sport-utility vehicles). We are a global supplier to most major OEMs seeking to meet or exceed evolving and increasingly stringent global regulatory requirements and satisfy consumer demands for an enhanced user experience. Additionally, we offer a wide range of OES solutions and remanufactured products as well as an expanded range of products for the independent (non-OEM) aftermarket.

Transition to Standalone Company

On July 3, 2023, PHINIA became an independent publicly traded company as a result of the legal and structural separation of the Fuel Systems and Aftermarket businesses from BorgWarner Inc. (BorgWarner or Former Parent). The separation was completed in the form of a distribution of the outstanding common stock of PHINIA to holders of record of common stock of BorgWarner on a pro rata basis (the Spin-Off). In connection with the Spin-Off, we entered into an agreement with the Former Parent which governs the Company’s and the Former Parent’s respective rights, responsibilities and obligations after the distribution with respect to taxes for any tax period ending on or before the distribution date, as well as tax periods beginning before and ending after the distribution date (Tax Matters Agreement).

In addition, new trade restrictions, including export controls, and/or increases in tariffs could have a material impact on our business, financial condition, or results of operations, including increasing our input costs and decreasing demand in the commercial vehicle (CV) and light vehicle (LV) markets, although the nature of those trade restrictions and tariffs remains unclear. These new trade restrictions and tariffs increase the risk for elevated inflation more generally, which may drive an increase in other input costs.

Outlook

We expect improved earnings and cash generation in 2026, as we expect foreign currency, operational efficiencies, and share gains to more than offset a softening original equipment (OE) market. Continued economic and geopolitical uncertainty is expected to continue to impact LV and CV volumes. In our key markets for 2026, LV and CV volumes are expected to decline by mid-single and low-single digit percentages, respectively. Assuming constant foreign exchange rates and excluding sales from acquisitions, we expect a modest increase in sales. Additionally, we expect to continue to be impacted by other macroeconomic challenges in 2026, including but not limited to elevated inflation, supply chain constraints, market volatility, higher tariffs (particularly in Mexico and China), government shutdowns, and changes in international trade relations.

Despite the near-term uncertainties, the Company maintains a positive long-term outlook for its global business and is committed to new product development and strategic investments to support its product leadership and growth strategies. There are several trends that are driving the Company’s long-term growth that management expects to continue, including market share expansion in the CV market, growth in overall vehicle parc that supports aftermarket demand, increased consumer interest in hybrid and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, adoption of additional product offerings enabling zero- and lower-carbon fuel solutions for combustion vehicles, and expansion in the aerospace and defense industry. In addition, we believe we are well positioned to continue to expand our differentiated offerings and capabilities across electronics, software and complete systems.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This Form 10-K contains information about PHINIA’s financial results that is not presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). Such non-GAAP financial measures are reconciled to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in this Form 10-K. The reconciliations include all information reasonably available to the Company at the date of this Form 10-K and the adjustments that management can reasonably predict.

Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to management, investors, and banking institutions in their analysis of the Company's business and operating performance. Management also uses this information for operational planning and decision-making purposes.

Non-GAAP financial measures are not and should not be considered a substitute for any GAAP measure. Additionally, because not all companies use identical calculations, the non-GAAP financial measures as presented by PHINIA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

A detailed comparison of the Company’s 2024 operating results to its 2023 operating results can be found in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 13, 2025.

Restructuring expense

Restructuring expense was $17 million and $14 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. See Note 4, “Restructuring”, for further discussion.

Other operating expense, net

Other operating expense, net was $46 million and $41 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The change in Other operating expense, net was primarily driven by an increase in separation-related costs, primarily from a $39 million loss in connection with the settlement of separation-related claims with the Former Parent, partially offset by the non-recurrence of non-cash impairment expense related to the write down of property, plant and equipment associated with a Fuel Systems manufacturing plant in Europe. Other operating expense, net was comprised of the following:

Equity in affiliates’ earnings, net of tax

Equity in affiliates’ earnings, net of tax was $15 million and $11 million in the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. This line item is driven by the results of the Company’s unconsolidated joint venture.

Interest income

Interest income was $14 million and $16 million in the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to decreased cash and cash equivalents balances, as well as lower interest rates on cash and cash equivalents balances.

Interest expense

Interest expense was $81 million and $99 million in the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease was primarily related to the loss on extinguishment as a result of the restructuring of the Company’s debt positions in 2024. See Note 14, “Notes Payable and Debt”, for further discussion.

Other postretirement expense

Other postretirement expense was $4 million and de minimus in the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase in other postretirement expense for the year ended December 31, 2025 was primarily due to higher interest and inflationary costs in 2025.

Provision for income taxes

Provision for income taxes was $68 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 resulting in an effective tax rate of 34%. This compared to $108 million or 58% for the year ended December 31, 2024.

In 2025, the Company recognized discrete tax benefits of $11 million related to unremitted earnings as a result of a favorable change in withholding tax rates and favorable provision to return adjustments of $21 million in various jurisdictions partially offset by an increase in pre-Spin-off and post-Spin-off uncertain tax positions of $21 million and $5 million, respectively.

In 2024, the Company recognized discrete tax expense of $21 million related to the establishment of a valuation allowance on its Polish operations as a result of the changes in judgment related to the recovery of its deferred tax assets. This expense was fully offset by a discrete tax benefit related to unremitted earnings as a result of change in structure and favorable provision to return adjustments in various jurisdictions.

For further details, see Note 7, “Income Taxes,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form10-K.

Net earnings per diluted share and adjusted net earnings per diluted share

The Company’s net earnings per diluted share was $3.24 and $1.76 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company’s adjusted net earnings per diluted share was $4.96 and $3.86 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company defines adjusted net earnings per diluted share, a non-GAAP measure, as net earnings per diluted share adjusted to exclude: (i) the impact of restructuring expense, separation-related costs, merger and acquisition costs, impairment charges and other gains, losses and tax effects and adjustments not reflective of the Company’s ongoing operations; and (ii) acquisition-related intangibles amortization expense because it pertains to non-cash expenses that the Company does not use to evaluate core operating performance. Management believes that adjusted net earnings per diluted share is useful to investors in assessing the Company’s ongoing financial performance, as it provides improved comparability between periods through the exclusion of certain items that management believes are not indicative of the Company’s core operating performance.

Results by Reportable Segment

The Company’s business is comprised of two reportable segments: Fuel Systems and Aftermarket.

In the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company made a strategic decision to shift a significant portion of the OES business, previously reported in its Aftermarket segment, to the Fuel Systems segment, as distribution will now be handled by the Fuel Systems locations that manufacture the products. This is expected to streamline the sales structure to external customers while also reducing administrative efforts. The reporting segment disclosures have been updated accordingly which included recasting prior period information for the new reporting structure.

Segment Adjusted Operating Income (AOI) is the measure of segment income or loss used by the Company. Segment AOI is comprised of segment operating income adjusted for restructuring, separation-related costs, merger and acquisition costs, intangible asset amortization expense, impairment charges and other items not reflective of

33

Table of Contents

ongoing operating income or loss. The Company believes Segment AOI is most reflective of the operational profitability or loss of its reportable segments.

Segment AOI excludes certain corporate costs, which primarily represent corporate expenses not directly attributable to the individual segments. Corporate expenses not allocated to Segment AOI were $104 million and $92 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase in corporate expenses was primarily related to additional costs resulting from moving to a fully staffed standalone company and exiting the transition service agreements with the Former Parent and the addition of a second tranche of performance stock units under the Company's stock incentive plan.

The Fuel Systems segment’s Segment Adjusted Operating margin was 11.2% for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to 10.7% for the year ended December 31, 2024. The Segment Adjusted Operating margin increase was primarily due to R&D savings and overhead cost control measures, partially offset by unfavorable mix.

The Aftermarket segment’s Segment Adjusted Operating margin was 16.2% for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to 16.5% for the year ended December 31, 2024. The Segment Adjusted Operating margin decreased primarily due to the dilutive impact of tariff recoveries.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Borrowing Facilities and Long-Term Debt

Credit Agreement

On July 3, 2023, the Company entered into a $1.225 billion Credit Agreement (as amended, the Credit Agreement) consisting of a $500 million revolving credit facility (the Revolving Facility), a $300 million Term Loan A Facility (the Term Loan A Facility) and a $425 million Term Loan B Facility (the Term Loan B Facility; together with the Revolving Facility and the Term Loan A Facility, collectively, the Facilities) in connection with the Spin-Off that occurred on the same date, maturing on July 3, 2028. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Facility, and availability of $500 million. The Term Loan B Facility was fully repaid in connection with the issuance of the 6.75% Senior Secured Notes due 2029 on April 4, 2024, as discussed below. The Term Loan A

34

Table of Contents

Facility was fully repaid in connection with the issuance of the 6.625% Senior Notes due 2032 on September 17, 2024, as discussed below.

Senior Notes

On April 4, 2024, the Company issued $525 million aggregate principal amount of 6.75% Senior Secured Notes due 2029 (the 2029 Notes) pursuant to an indenture among the Company, as issuer, certain subsidiaries of the Company named as guarantors, and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee and as collateral agent. The 2029 Notes were sold to investors at 100% plus accrued interest, if any, from April 4, 2024 in a private transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The net proceeds of the offering of the 2029 Notes were used to repay all of the Company’s outstanding borrowings and accrued interest under the Term Loan B Facility and the Revolving Facility, and to pay fees and expenses in connection with the offering. During the second quarter of 2024, the Company recorded a non-cash pre-tax loss on extinguishment of $20 million related to the difference between the repayment amount and net carrying amount of the Term Loan B Facility, which is included in the Interest expense line item on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

On September 17, 2024, the Company issued $450 million aggregate principal amount of 6.625% Senior Notes due 2032 (the 2032 Notes) pursuant to an indenture among the Company, as issuer, certain subsidiaries of the Company named as guarantors, and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee. The 2032 Notes were sold to investors at 100% plus accrued interest, if any, from September 17, 2024 in a private transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The net proceeds of the offering of the 2032 Notes were used to repay all of the Company’s outstanding borrowings under the Term Loan A Facility, to pay fees and expenses in connection with the offering, and for general corporate purposes. During the third quarter of 2024, the Company recorded a non-cash pre-tax loss on extinguishment of $2 million related to the difference between the repayment amount and net carrying amount of the Term Loan A Facility, which is included in the Interest expense line item on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Refer to Note 14. “Notes Payable and Debt” for further information on the Credit Agreement, the 2029 Notes and the 2032 Notes.

Other Sources of Liquidity and Capital

We utilize certain arrangements with various financial institutions to sell eligible trade receivables from certain customers in North America and Europe. We may terminate any or all of these arrangements at any time subject to prior written notice. While we do not depend on these arrangements for our liquidity, if we elected to terminate these arrangements, there would be a one-time unfavorable timing impact on the collection of the outstanding receivables. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company sold $162 million of receivables under these arrangements.

As of December 31, 2025 the Company had cash and cash equivalent balance of $359 million, of which $330 million was held by our subsidiaries outside of the United States. We believe our existing cash and cash flows generated from operations and the Revolving Facility will be responsive to the needs of our current and planned operations for at least the next 12 months and the foreseeable future thereafter.

On February 13, 2025, May 21, 2025, July 31, 2025 and October 30, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors declared quarterly cash dividends of $0.27 per share of common stock. These dividends were paid on March 14, 2025, June 16, 2025, September 12, 2025 and December 12, 2025, respectively. On January 29, 2026, the Company announced that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.30 per share of common stock, payable on March 20, 2026.

The Company has a credit rating of BB+ from Standard & Poor's and Ba1 from Moody's. The current outlook from both Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s is stable. None of the Company’s debt agreements require accelerated repayment in the event of a downgrade in credit ratings.

Cash Flows

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $312 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, comparable with $308 million in the year ended December 31, 2024.

35

Table of Contents

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $132 million and $101 million in the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, primarily related to capital expenditures and the SEM acquisition. As a percentage of sales, capital expenditures were 3.6% and 3.1% for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $310 million and $96 million during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase is primarily related to the timing of issuance and repayment of debt.

Contractual Obligations

The Company’s significant cash requirements for contractual obligations as of December 31, 2025, primarily consisted of the principal and interest payments on its notes payable and long-term debt, non-cancelable lease obligations, and capital spending obligations. The principal amount of Revolving Facility, notes payable and long-term debt was $981 million as of December 31, 2025. The projected interest payments over the terms of that debt were $333 million as of December 31, 2025. Refer to Note 14, “Notes Payable and Debt,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for more information.

As of December 31, 2025, non-cancelable lease obligations were $58 million. Refer to Note 21, “Leases and Commitments,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for more information. Capital spending obligations were $37 million as of December 31, 2025.

Management believes that the combination of cash from operations, cash balances, and available credit facilities will be sufficient to satisfy the Company’s cash needs for its current level of operations and its planned operations for the foreseeable future. Management will continue to balance the Company’s needs for organic growth, inorganic growth, debt reduction, cash conservation and return of cash to shareholders.

Pension and Other Postretirement Employee Benefits

The Company’s policy is to fund its defined benefit pension plans in accordance with applicable government regulations and to make additional contributions when appropriate. At December 31, 2025, all legal funding requirements had been met. The Company contributed $8 million and $5 million to its defined benefit pension plans in the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

The Company expects to contribute a total of $12 million to $14 million into its defined benefit pension plans during 2026.

The funded status of all pension plans was a net unfunded position of $142 million and $113 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase in the net unfunded position was a result of higher interest costs, partially offset by higher asset returns.

The Company believes it will be able to fund the requirements of these plans through cash generated from operations or other available sources of financing for the foreseeable future.

Refer to Note 17, “Retirement Benefit Plans,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for more information regarding costs and assumptions for employee retirement benefits.

OTHER MATTERS

Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company is party to various commercial and legal claims, actions and complaints, including matters involving warranty claims, intellectual property claims, governmental investigations and related proceedings, including relating to alleged or actual violations of vehicle emissions standards, general liability and various other risks.

It is not possible to predict with certainty whether or not the Company will ultimately be successful in any of these commercial and legal matters or, if not, what the impact might be. The Company records accruals for outstanding legal matters when it believes it is probable that a loss will be incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The Company evaluates, on a quarterly basis, developments in commercial and legal matters that could affect the amount of any accrual and developments that would make a loss contingency both probable and

36

Table of Contents

reasonably estimable. If a loss contingency is not both probable and reasonably estimable, the Company does not establish an accrued liability. The Company’s management does not expect that an adverse outcome in any of these commercial and legal claims, actions and complaints that are currently pending will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. An adverse outcome could, nonetheless, be material to the results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

BorgWarner Dispute

On October 15, 2025, the Company entered into a settlement agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with the Former Parent to resolve previously disclosed claims asserted by the Former Parent against the Company, and counterclaims asserted by the Company against the Former Parent, in Delaware Superior Court related to payments and other obligations under the Tax Matters Agreement. The Settlement Agreement provides for, among other things, the Company to make payments to the Former Parent pursuant to the following schedule: an initial payment of $31 million, which was made in the fourth quarter of 2025, a second payment of $21 million, which was made in the first quarter of 2026, and a third and final payment of $26 million to be made over the course of 2026 as the Company receives refunds related to certain indirect tax payments prior to the Spin-Off from various tax authorities. The Company expects that a substantial portion of these payments will be funded through the refunds obtained by the Company from tax authorities that relate to the indirect tax payments made prior to the Spin-Off, with the remaining portion of the payments to be funded with available liquidity. The Company recorded a $39 million loss in the year ended December 31, 2025 in connection with the settlement, representing the aggregate amount of the payments to be made to the Former Parent less the amount the Company had previously recorded for the matter.

In addition, the Settlement Agreement required the Former Parent to pay to the Company approximately $7 million, which was received in the fourth quarter of 2025, related to the reimbursement of certain pre-Spin-Off corporate income taxes. The Settlement Agreement also provides for the release of certain other claims asserted by the Former Parent against the Company.

In connection with the Settlement Agreement, the Company and the Former Parent also entered into an amendment to the Tax Matters Agreement to provide for, among other things, clarification of the Former Parent’s responsibility for certain pre-Spin-Off tax liabilities and the Company’s ability to obtain and use the benefit of certain pre-Spin-Off credits and other offsets. Although the credits remain subject to completion of necessary filings and governmental approvals, the Company believes these credits can result in the Company receiving up to approximately $29 million in cash.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). In preparing these financial statements, management has made its best estimates and judgments of certain amounts included in the financial statements, giving due consideration to materiality. Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Some of these policies require management's most difficult, subjective or complex judgments in the preparation of the financial statements and accompanying notes. Management makes estimates and assumptions about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain, relating to the reporting of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company’s most critical accounting policies are discussed below.

Impairment of long-lived assets, including definite-lived intangible assets The Company reviews the carrying value of its long-lived assets, whether held for use or disposal, including other amortizing intangible assets, when events and circumstances warrant such a review under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 360. In assessing long-lived assets for an impairment loss, assets are grouped with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. In assessing long-lived assets for impairment, management generally considers individual facilities to be the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent. A recoverability review is performed using the undiscounted cash flows if there is a triggering event. If the undiscounted cash flow test for recoverability identifies a possible impairment, management will perform a fair value analysis. Management determines fair value under ASC Topic 820 using the appropriate valuation technique of market, income or cost approach. If the carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired, an impairment charge is recorded for the amount by which the carrying value of the long-lived asset exceeds its fair value.

Management believes that the estimates of future cash flows and fair value assumptions are reasonable; however, changes in assumptions underlying these estimates could affect the valuations. Significant judgments and estimates used by management when evaluating long-lived assets for impairment include (1) an assessment as to whether an adverse event or circumstance has triggered the need for an impairment review; (2) undiscounted future cash flows generated by the asset; and (3) fair valuation of the asset. Events and conditions that could result in impairment in the value of long-lived assets include changes in the industries in which the Company operates, particularly the impact of a downturn in the global economy, as well as competition and advances in technology, adverse changes in the regulatory environment, or other factors leading to reduction in expected long-term sales or profitability.

Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets The Company’s goodwill is tested for impairment annually in the fourth quarter for all reporting units, and more frequently if events or circumstances warrant such a review. The Company first assesses qualitative factors, such as macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions, cost factors, relevant events and financial trends, that may impact a reporting unit's fair value. Using this qualitative assessment, the Company determines whether it is more-likely-than-not the reporting unit's fair value exceeds its carrying value. If it is determined that it is not more-likely-than-not the reporting unit's fair value exceeds the carrying value, or upon consideration of other factors, including recent acquisition, restructuring or disposal activity or to refresh the fair values, the Company performs a quantitative goodwill impairment analysis. In addition, the Company may test goodwill in between annual test dates if an event occurs or circumstances change that could more-likely-than-not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value.

The Company also has intangible assets related to acquired trade names that are classified as indefinite-lived when there are no foreseeable limits on the periods of time over which they are expected to contribute cash flows. Costs to renew or extend the term of acquired intangible assets are recognized as expenses are incurred.

Similar to goodwill, the Company can elect to perform the impairment test for indefinite-lived intangibles other than goodwill (trade names) using a qualitative analysis, considering similar factors as outlined in the goodwill discussion in order to determine if it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of the intangibles are less than the respective carrying values. If the Company elects to perform or is required to perform a quantitative analysis, the test consists of a comparison of the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset to the carrying value of the asset as of the impairment testing date. The Company estimates the fair value of indefinite-lived intangibles using the relief-from-royalty method, which it believes is an appropriate and widely used valuation technique for such assets. The fair value derived from the relief-from-royalty method is measured as the discounted cash flow savings realized from owning such trade names and not being required to pay a royalty for their use.

Product warranties The Company provides warranties on some, but not all, of its products sold to OEMs. The warranty terms are typically from one to three years. Provisions for estimated expenses related to product warranty are made at the time products are sold. These estimates are established using historical information about the nature, frequency and average cost of warranty claim settlements as well as product manufacturing and industry developments and recoveries from third parties. Management actively studies trends of warranty claims and takes action to improve product quality and minimize warranty claims. Costs of product recalls, which may include the cost of the product being replaced as well as the customer’s cost of the recall, including labor to remove and replace the recalled part, are accrued as part of the Company’s warranty accrual at the time an obligation becomes probable and can be reasonably estimated. Management believes that the warranty accrual is appropriate; however, actual claims incurred could differ from the original estimates, requiring adjustments to the accrual:

Pension The Company provides pension benefits to a number of its current and former employees. The Company’s defined benefit pension plans are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 715. The determination of the Company’s obligation and expense for its pension is dependent on certain assumptions used by actuaries in calculating such amounts. Certain assumptions, including the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets, discount rate and rates of increase in compensation are described in Note 17, “Retirement Benefit Plans,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-K. The effects of any modification to those assumptions, or actual results that differ from assumptions used, are either recognized immediately or amortized over future periods in accordance with GAAP.

The primary assumptions affecting the Company’s accounting for employee benefits under ASC Topic 715 as of December 31, 2025 are as follows:

•Expected long-term rate of return on plan assets The expected long-term rate of return is used in the calculation of net periodic benefit cost. The required use of the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets may result in recognized returns that are greater or less than the actual returns on those plan assets in any given year. Over time, however, the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets is designed to approximate actual earned long-term returns. The expected long-term rate of return for pension assets has been determined based on various inputs, including historical returns for the different asset classes held by the Company’s trusts and its asset allocation, as well as inputs from internal and external sources regarding expected capital market return, inflation and other variables. The Company also considers the impact of active management of the plans’ invested assets. In determining its pension expense for the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company used long-term rates of return on plan assets ranging from 2.5% to 8.0%.

Actual returns on U.K. pension assets were 3.7% and (6.2)% for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, compared to the expected rate of return assumption of 5.75% and 5.25%, respectively, for the same years ended.

•Discount rate The discount rate is used to calculate pension obligations. In determining the discount rate, the Company utilizes a full-yield approach in the estimation of service and interest components by applying the specific spot rates along the yield curve used in the determination of the benefit obligation to the relevant projected cash flows. For its significant plans, the Company used discount rates ranging from 2.45% to 23.5% to determine its pension obligations as of December 31, 2025, including weighted average discount rates of 5.8% (including 5.5% in the U.K.). The U.K. discount rate reflects the fact that the pension plan has been closed for new participants.

While the Company believes that these assumptions are appropriate, significant differences in actual experience or significant changes in these assumptions may materially affect the Company's pension and its future expense.

The sensitivity to a 25 basis-point change in the assumptions for expected return on assets related to 2026 pre-tax pension expense for Company sponsored pension plans is expected to be $2 million. The sensitivity to a 25 basis-point change in the assumptions for discount rate related to 2026 pre-tax pension expense for Company sponsored pension plans is expected to be negligible.

The following table illustrates the sensitivity to a change in the discount rate for Company sponsored pension plans on its pension obligations:

Income taxes The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance ASC Topic 740 (ASC 740). Income taxes as presented in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements have been allocated in a manner that is systematic, rational, and consistent with the broad principles of ASC 740. For periods ended on or prior to July 3, 2023, the Company’s operations have been included in the Former Parent’s U.S. federal consolidated tax return, certain foreign tax returns, and certain state tax returns. For the purposes of these financial statements, the Company’s

39

Table of Contents

income tax provision was computed as if the Company filed separate tax returns (i.e., as if the Company had not been included in the consolidated income tax return group with the Former Parent). The separate-return method applies ASC 740 to the Consolidated Financial Statements of each member of a consolidated tax group as if the group member were a separate taxpayer. As a result, actual tax transactions included in the consolidated financial statements of the Former Parent may not be included in these Consolidated Financial Statements. Further, the Company’s tax results as presented in the Consolidated Financial Statements may not be reflective of the results that the Company expects to generate in the future. Also, the tax treatment of certain items reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements may not be reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements and tax returns of the Former Parent. Items such as net operating losses, other deferred taxes, income taxes payable, liabilities for uncertain tax positions and valuation allowances may exist in the Consolidated Financial Statements that may or may not exist in the Former Parent’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

For periods subsequent to July 3, 2023, these items are reported based on tax filings and tax attributes of the Company’s legal entities. Indemnification assets and liabilities have been reported for amounts payable to or recoverable from the Former Parent under the Tax Matters Agreement for taxes associated with the period prior to the Spin-Off. The Tax Matters Agreement generally governs our and the Former Parent’s respective rights, responsibilities and obligations after the distribution with respect to taxes for any tax period ending on or before the distribution date, as well as tax periods beginning before and ending after the distribution date. Generally, the Former Parent is liable for all pre-distribution U.S. income taxes, foreign income taxes, certain non-income taxes attributable to our business, and liabilities for taxes that were incurred as a result of restructuring activities undertaken to effectuate the separation. The Company is generally liable for all other taxes attributable to its business.

In accordance with ASC 740, the Company’s income tax expense is calculated based on expected income and statutory tax rates in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates and requires the use of management’s estimates and judgments. Accounting for income taxes is complex, in part because the Company conducts business globally and, therefore, files income tax returns in numerous tax jurisdictions. Management judgment is required in determining the Company’s worldwide provision for income taxes and recording the related assets and liabilities, including accruals for unrecognized tax benefits and assessing the need for valuation allowances.

The determination of accruals for unrecognized tax benefits includes the application of complex tax laws in a multitude of jurisdictions across the Company’s global operations. Management judgment is required in determining the gross unrecognized tax benefits’ related liabilities. In the ordinary course of the Company’s business, there are many transactions and calculations where the ultimate tax determination is less than certain. Accruals for unrecognized tax benefits are established when, despite the belief that tax positions are supportable, there remain certain positions that do not meet the minimum probability threshold, which is a tax position that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority. The Company has certain U.S. state income tax returns and certain non-U.S. income tax returns that are currently under various stages of audit by applicable tax authorities. At December 31, 2025, the Company had a liability for tax positions the Company estimates are not more-likely-than-not to be sustained based on the technical merits, which is included in other non-current liabilities. Nonetheless, the amounts ultimately paid, if any, upon resolution of the issues raised by the taxing authorities may differ materially from the amounts accrued for each year.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

The Company records valuation allowances to reduce the carrying value of deferred tax assets to amounts that it expects are more-likely-than-not to be realized. The Company assesses existing deferred tax assets, net operating losses, and tax credits by jurisdiction and expectations of its ability to utilize these tax attributes through a review of past, current and estimated future taxable income and tax planning strategies.

Estimates of future taxable income, including income generated from prudent and feasible tax planning strategies resulting from actual or planned business and operational developments, could change in the near term, perhaps materially, which may require the Company to consider any potential impact to the assessment of the recoverability of the related deferred tax asset. Such potential impact could be material to the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations for an individual reporting period.

The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) has a framework to implement a global minimum corporate tax of 15% for companies with global revenues and profits above certain thresholds (referred to as Pillar 2), with certain aspects of Pillar 2 effective January 1, 2024 and other aspects effective January 1, 2025. While it is uncertain whether the U.S. will enact legislation to adopt Pillar 2, certain countries in which the Company operates have adopted legislation, and other countries are in the process of introducing legislation to implement Pillar 2. Pillar 2 does not have a material impact to the Company’s effective tax rate or consolidated results of operation, financial position or cash flows.
