NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows, and changes in shareholders' equity of Sensata Technologies Holding plc, a public limited company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales, and its consolidated subsidiaries, collectively referred to as the "Company," "Sensata," "we," "our," or "us."
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States ("U.S.") generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, these interim financial statements do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying interim financial information reflects all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the interim period results. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022,2023, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on February 13, 202329, 2024 (the "2022"2023 Annual Report").
In the three months ended March 31, 2024, we realigned our business as a result of organizational changes that better allocate our resources to support changes to our business strategy. The most significant changes include combining our Automotive and HVOR businesses (with the combined business remaining in Performance Sensing) and moving the Insights business out of Performance Sensing to a new operating segment, which is not aggregated within either of our reportable segments. We combined the Automotive and HVOR businesses to better leverage our core capabilities and prioritize product focus. We also moved certain shorter-cycle businesses from Performance Sensing to Sensing Solutions, which will benefit from organizing our predominantly shorter-cycle businesses together, by allowing us to scale core capabilities and better serve our customers. Prior year amounts in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been recast to reflect this realignment. Refer to Note 15: Segment Reporting for additional information
In the three months ended March 31, 2024, we presented interest income on the condensed consolidated statements of operations separate from interest expense. In the three months ended March 31, 2023, interest income had been included in interest expense, net. Accordingly, we reclassified prior period interest income to a separate caption in the condensed consolidated statements of operations to conform to current period presentation.
All U.S. dollar ("USD") and share amounts presented, except per share amounts, are stated in thousands, unless otherwise indicated.
2. New Accounting Standards
ThereIn November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280), Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, to improve disclosures about a public entity's reportable segments. This guidance requires that a public entity disclose, on an annual and interim basis, significant segment expenses that are no recently issued accounting standards that have been adoptedregularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss and an amount for "other segment items" included in the current perioddetermination of segment operating income. The guidance also requires that a public entity provide all annual disclosures about a reportable segment's profit or loss and assets currently required by FASB ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, in interim periods, and that a public entity provide the title and position of the chief operating decision maker. Other requirements of the guidance are not expected to be material. There is no change to the guidance for identification or aggregation of operating or reportable segments. FASB ASU No. 2023-07 will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The guidance must be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented. We adopted the guidance in futureFASB ASU No. 2023-07 on January 1, 2024 and will include the required new annual and quarterly disclosures in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2024 and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2025, respectively.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, to improve the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring (1) consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and (2) income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. The guidance also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. For public business entities, the standard is effective for annual periods that have had orbeginning after December 15, 2024. We are expected to have a materialcurrently evaluating the impact on our consolidated financial position or resultsincome tax related disclosures.

In addition, Insights revenue was moved from the HVOR end market (in Performance Sensing) to the other end market in a separate operating segment that is not aggregated within either of our reportable segments. The three months ended March 31, 2023 have been retrospectively recast to reflect this change.
(4)    Effective April 1, 2023, we moved our material handling products from Performance Sensing to Sensing Solutions operating segment to align with new management reporting. As a result, material handling revenue was moved from the HVOR end market to the Industrial end market. The three months ended March 31, 2023 have been retrospectively recast to reflect this change.

The reductions-in-force, which are subject to the laws and regulations of the countries in which the actions are planned, are expected to impact 510 positions. Over the life of the Q3 2023 Plan, we expect to incur restructuring charges of between $20.5 million and $25.5 million, primarily related to reductions-in-force. The majority of the actions under the Q3 2023 Plan are expected to be completed on or before June 30, 2024. We expect to settle these charges with cash on hand.
We expect these restructuring charges to impact our business segments and corporate functions as follows:

 March 31, 2024March 31, 2023
Provision for income taxes$22,570 $23,726 
The provision for income taxes consists of (1) current tax expense, which relates primarily to our profitable operations in tax jurisdictions with limited or no net operating loss carryforwards and withholding taxes related to management fees, royalties, and the repatriation of foreign earnings; and (2) deferred tax expense (or benefit), which represents adjustments in book-to-tax basis differences primarily related to (a) book versus tax basis in intangible assets, (b) changes in net operating loss

carryforwards, and (c) changes in withholding taxes on unremitted earnings. Other items impacting deferred tax expense include changes in tax rates and changes in our assessment of the realizability of our deferred tax assets.
We recorded a partial valuation allowance against certain interest carryforwards in the U.S. at both December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. We are continually evaluating both the positive and negative evidence for this partial valuation allowance. We believe that there is a reasonable possibility that within the next 12 months, sufficient positive evidence may become available to allow us to reach a conclusion that a significant portion

Table of the valuation allowance will no longer be needed. Release of the valuation allowance would result in the recognition of this deferred tax asset and a decrease to income tax expense for the period the release is recorded. However, the exact timing and amount of the valuation allowance release are subject to change on the basis of the level of profitability and future utilization of this attribute that we are able to actually achieve.Contents

8. Net Income per Share
Basic and diluted net income per share are calculated by dividing net income by the number of basic and diluted weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding during the period. For the three months ended March 31, 20232024 and 20222023 the weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding used to calculate basic and diluted net income per share were as follows:

11. Commitments and Contingencies
We are regularly involved in a number of claims and litigation matters that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although it is not feasible to predict the outcome of these matters, based upon our experience and current information known to us, we do not expect the outcome of these matters, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, and/or cash flows.
12. Shareholders' Equity
Purchase of noncontrolling interest in joint venture
In February 2024, Sensata purchased the remaining 50% interest in the Company’s joint venture with Dongguan Churod Electronics Co., Ltd. for approximately $79.4 million. Prior to the transaction, the Company had been consolidating the joint venture. The purchase of the 50% non-controlling interest was accounted for as an equity transaction. No gain or loss was recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The difference between the fair value of the consideration paid and the amount by which the non-controlling interest was adjusted was recognized as a reduction of additional paid in capital recorded in equity.

Foreign Currency Translation
11

TablePrior to October 1, 2023, the functional currency of Contentsthe Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries in China was USD. Effective October 1, 2023, as a result of significant changes in economic facts and circumstances in the operations of our China foreign entities, the functional currency of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries in China changed to the CNY. The changes in economic facts and circumstances caused a permanent change to our strategy in China toward a more self-contained model, making China the primary economic environment in which these subsidiaries operate. This change was accounted for prospectively and does not impact prior period financial statements.

As a result of this change, in the fourth quarter of 2023, we started recording an adjustment to translate these subsidiaries' financial statements from CNY to USD (our reporting currency). These adjustments are included in other comprehensive income and are presented under the heading
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income/(Loss) below.
Treasury Shares
From time to time, our Board of Directors has authorized various share repurchase programs, which may be modified or terminated by the Board at any time. Under these programs, we may repurchase ordinary shares at such times and in amounts to be determined by our management, based on market conditions, legal requirements, and other corporate considerations, on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, provided that such transactions were completed pursuant to an agreement and with a third party approved by our shareholders at the annual general meeting. Ordinary shares repurchased by us are recognized, measured at cost, and presented as treasury shares on our consolidated balance sheets, resulting in a reduction of shareholders' equity.
On January 20, 2022, we announced that our Board of Directors had authorized a new $500.0 million ordinary share repurchase program (the “January 2022 Program”), which replaced the previous $500.0 million program approved in July 2019. On September 26, 2023, our Board of Directors authorized a new $500.0 million ordinary share repurchase program (the “September 2023 Program”), which replaced the January 2022 Program and became effective on October 1, 2023.

In the three months ended March 31, 2024, we repurchased 0.3 million ordinary shares for $10.1 million. These repurchases were made under the September 2023 Program. We did not repurchase any ordinary shares under this program in the three months ended March 31, 2023. In the three months ended March 31, 2022, we repurchased 1.1 million ordinary shares under the January 2022 Program.

We evaluated our goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment as of October 1, 20222023 and determined that they were notour Insights reporting unit was impaired. Refer to additional information in our 2023 Annual Report. No events or changes in circumstances occurred in the three months ended March 31, 20232024 that would have triggered the need for an additional impairment review of our goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets.
In the three months ended March 31, 2024, we made the decision to reorganize our segments, as discussed in more detail in Note 1: Basis of Presentation. This reorganization resulted in the creation of a new reporting unit for a business that was previously part of the Automotive reporting unit, which was moved to the Sensing Solutions segment. We reassigned assets and liabilities, including goodwill, from the Automotive reporting unit to the new reporting unit as required by FASB ASC Topic 350. We evaluated our goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment before and after the reorganization and formation of these reporting units and determined that they were not impaired. As a result of this reorganization, we allocated $143.4 million of goodwill to the new reporting unit.

Credit Risk Related Contingent Features
We have agreements with our derivative counterparties that contain a provision whereby if we default on our indebtedness and repayment of the indebtedness has been accelerated by the lender, then we could also be declared in default on our derivative obligations.
As of March 31, 2023,2024, the termination value of outstanding derivatives in a liability position, excluding any adjustment for non-performance risk, was $13.3$2.8 million. As of March 31, 2023,2024, we had not posted any cash collateral related to these agreements. If we breach any of the default provisions on any of our indebtedness as described above, we could be required to settle our obligations under the derivative agreements at their termination values.
15. Acquisitions and Divestitures
Acquisitions
Elastic M2M
On February 11, 2022, we acquired all of the equity interests of Elastic M2M Inc. ("Elastic M2M") for an aggregate cash purchase price of $51.6 million, subject to certain post-closing items. In addition to the aggregate cash purchase price, the previous shareholders of Elastic M2M are entitled to up to $30.0 million of additional acquisition-related incentive

compensation, which was pending the completion of certain technical milestones in fiscal year 2022 and achievement of financial targets in fiscal years 2022 and 2023. All technical milestones were completed in fiscal year 2022. As of December 31, 2022, we had recognized $24.7 million of this acquisition-related incentive compensation. In three months ended March 31, 2023, we recognized an additional $3.3 million of this acquisition-related incentive compensation. This incentive compensation is recorded in restructuring and other charges, net.
Elastic M2M was a privately-held innovator of connected intelligence for operational assets across heavy-duty transport, warehouse, supply chain and logistics, industrial, light-duty passenger car, and a variety of other industry segments. Elastic M2M primarily serves telematics service providers and resellers, enabling them to leverage Elastic M2M’s cloud platform and analytics capabilities to deliver sensor-based operational insights to their end users. This acquisition augments our cloud capabilities critical to delivering actionable sensor-based insights, an increasingly important capability in this fast-growing industry segment. We are integrating Elastic M2M into the Performance Sensing reportable segment.
The allocation of the purchase price related to this acquisition was finalized in the three months ended March 31, 2023. The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase price to the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed:
Net working capital, excluding cash$35 
Goodwill28,211 
Other intangible assets27,700 
Deferred income tax liabilities(5,925)
Fair value of net assets acquired, excluding cash and cash equivalents50,021 
Cash and cash equivalents1,597 
Fair value of net assets acquired$51,618 
The goodwill recognized as a result of this acquisition represents future economic benefits expected to arise from synergies from combining operations and the extension of existing customer relationships. The goodwill recognized in this acquisition will not be deductible for tax purposes.
In connection with the allocation of purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, we identified certain definite-lived intangible assets. The following table presents the acquired intangible assets, their estimated fair values, and weighted-average lives:
Acquisition Date Fair ValueWeighted-Average Lives (years)
Acquired definite-lived intangible assets
Customer relationships$17,500 13
Completed technologies10,200 10
Total definite-lived intangible assets acquired$27,700 12
The definite-lived intangible assets were valued using the income approach. We primarily used the relief-from-royalty method to value completed technologies, and we used the multi-period excess earnings method to value customer relationships. These valuation methods incorporate assumptions including expected discounted future net cash flows resulting from either the future estimated after-tax royalty payments avoided as a result of owning the completed technologies or the future earnings related to existing customer relationships.
Dynapower
On July 12, 2022, we completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding equity interests of DP Acquisition Corp ("Dynapower"), a leader in power conversion systems including inverters, converters, and rectifiers for renewable energy generation, green hydrogen production, electric vehicle charging stations, and microgrid applications, as well as industrial and defense applications, for an aggregate cash purchase price of $577.5 million, subject to certain post-closing items. Dynapower also provides aftermarket sales and service to maintain its equipment in the field.
Dynapower is a foundational addition to our Clean Energy Solutions strategy and complements our recent acquisitions of GIGAVAC, Lithium Balance, and Spear. We are integrating Dynapower into our Sensing Solutions reportable segment.

The allocation of purchase price of Dynapower is preliminary and is based on management’s judgments after evaluating several factors, including preliminary valuation assessments of intangible assets. The final allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired will be completed when the final valuations are completed. The preliminary goodwill recognized as a result of this acquisition represents future economic benefits expected to arise from synergies from combining operations and the extension of existing customer relationships. The goodwill recognized in this acquisition will not be deductible for tax purposes.

Divestiture - Qinex Business
On May 27, 2022, we executed an asset purchase agreement (the "APA") whereby we agreed to sell various assets and liabilities comprising our semiconductor test and thermal business (collectively, the "Qinex Business") to LTI Holdings, Inc. ("LTI") in exchange for consideration of approximately $219.0 million, subject to working capital and other adjustments. Concurrent with the execution of the APA, the parties entered into a Contract Manufacturing Agreement ("CMA") and a Transition Services Agreement ("TSA"), each for nominal consideration.
The CMA commenced at closing of the transaction ("Closing") and had a term of either six or nine months, depending on the manufacturing site. LTI also had the option of extending each contract for an additional three months. The period from Closing to the end of the CMA term (including extensions, if any) is referred to as the "Transition Period." The terms of the CMA required that we provide manufacturing and distribution services for the Transition Period. The TSA commenced at Closing and had a term that varied depending on the nature of the support services, ranging from one month to the entirety of the Transition Period. The terms of the TSA required that we provide various forms of commercial, operational, and back-office support to LTI. As of March 31, 2023, the Transition Period has ended.
Closing occurred in July 2022, at which time assets of approximately $70 million (including allocated goodwill of $45 million) and liabilities of approximately $2 million transferred to LTI. Transferred assets and liabilities excluded inventories and accounts payable, which transferred to LTI at the end of the Transition Period. We received cash consideration of

$198.8 million at Closing and recognized a pre-tax gain of $135.1 million. Cash consideration received at Closing excluded amounts held in escrow until various milestones were met through the Transition Period.
The Qinex Business manufactures semiconductor burn-in test sockets and thermal control solutions and was formed through the combination of Sensata’s semiconductor interconnect business with Wells-CTI in 2012. The Qinex Business was included in our Sensing Solutions segment (and Industrial Solutions reporting unit). We allocated goodwill to the Qinex Business based on its fair value relative to the total fair value of the Industrial Solutions reporting unit.
16. Segment Reporting
We present financial information for two reportable segments, Performance Sensing and Sensing Solutions. TheIn the three months ended March 31, 2024, we realigned our segments as a result of organizational changes that better allocate our resources to support changes to our business strategy. Refer to Note 1: Basis of Presentation for additional information. This realignment added an "other" segment that represents the aggregation of immaterial operating segments. As a result of this reorganization,
17

Table of Contents

we moved $143.4 million of goodwill from Performance Sensing to Sensing Solutions. Refer to Note 13: Fair Value Measures for additional information.
Effective April 1, 2023, we moved our material handling products from the HVOR operating segment (in the Performance Sensing reportable segment) to the Sensing Solutions operating segment to align with new management reporting. Prior year amounts in the table below have been recast to reflect these realignments.
Prior to the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Performance Sensing reportable segment consistsrepresented the aggregation of two operating segments, Automotive and HVOR,HVOR. As a result of the segment realignment, Performance Sensing now represents one operating segment, as does Sensing Solutions. Other immaterial operating segments are aggregated in other, which meetwas created as part of the criteria for aggregation in FASB ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting. The Sensing Solutions reportable segment is also an operating segment.realignment.
Our operating segments are businesses that we manage as components of an enterprise, for which separate financial information is evaluated regularly by our chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.
An operating segment’s performance is primarily evaluated based on segment operating income, which excludes amortization of intangible assets, restructuring and other charges, net, certain costs associated with our strategic megatrend initiatives, and certain corporate costs or credits not associated with the operations of the segment, including share-based compensation expense and a portion of depreciation expense associated with assets recognized in connection with acquisitions. Corporate and other costsexpenses excluded from an operating (and reportable) segment’s performance are separately stated below and also include costs that are related to functional areas such as finance, information technology, legal, and human resources. We believe that segment operating income, as defined above, is an appropriate measure for evaluating the operating performance of our segments. However, this measure should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, operating income or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The accounting policies of each of our operating and reportable segments are materially consistent with those described in Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies of the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 20222023 Annual Report.
The following table presents net revenue and segment operating income for our reportable segments and other operating results not allocated to our reportable segments for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 (prior periods have been recast).

This increase was primarily due to (1) lower selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expense, primarily related to reduced compensation in the first quarter of 2023 as a result of restructuring actions taken in fiscal year 2022, (2) margin improvements driven by organic revenue growth partially offset by the unfavorable effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, and (3) lower restructuring and other charges, net.

In the first quarterthree months ended March 31, 2024, we realigned our business as a result of 2023, we prepaid $250.0 millionorganizational changes that better allocate our resources to support changes to our business strategy. The most significant changes include combining our Automotive and HVOR businesses (with the combined business remaining in Performance Sensing) and moving the Insights business out of principalPerformance Sensing to a new operating segment, which is not aggregated within either of our reportable segments. We combined the Automotive and HVOR businesses to better leverage our core capabilities and prioritize product focus. We also moved certain shorter-cycle businesses from Performance Sensing to Sensing Solutions, which will benefit from organizing our predominantly shorter-cycle businesses together, by allowing us to scale core capabilities and better serve our customers.

This impact was primarily due to the non-recurrence of mark-to-market losses on equity investments, primarily related to our investment in Quanergy Systems Inc., in the first quarter of 2022, partially offset by lower gains on commodity forward contracts.
Provision for income taxes
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the provision for income taxes increased $16.1 million from the three months ended March 31, 2022, predominantly due to the increase in profit before tax as impacted by the jurisdictional mix of profits.
The provision for income taxes consists of (1) current tax expense, which relates primarily to our profitable operations in tax jurisdictions with limited or no net operating loss carryforwards and withholding taxes related to management fees, royalties, and the repatriation of foreign earnings; and (2) deferred tax expense (or benefit), which represents adjustments in book-to-tax basis differences primarily related to (a) book versus tax basis in intangible assets, (b) changes in net operating loss carryforwards, and (c) changes in withholding taxes on unremitted earnings. Other items impacting deferred tax expense include changes in tax rates and changes in our assessment of the realizability of our deferred tax assets.
For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the provision for income taxes decreased $1.2 million from the prior period, predominantly due to lower income before taxes, the effective settlement of uncertain tax positions, and changes in our jurisdictional mix of profits.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This section provides additional information regarding certain non-GAAP financial measures, including organic revenue growth (or decline), adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share ("EPS"), free cash flow, adjusted corporate and other expenses, net debt, gross and net leverage ratio, and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA"), which are used by our management, Board of Directors, and investors. We use these non-GAAP financial measures internally to make operating and strategic decisions, including the preparation of our annual operating plan, evaluation of our overall business performance, and as a factor in determining compensation for certain employees. 
The use of our non-GAAP financial measures has limitations. They should be considered as supplemental in nature and are not intended to be considered in isolation from, or as an alternative to, reported net revenue growth (or decline), operating income, operating margin, net income, diluted EPS, net cash provided by operating activities, corporate and other expenses, or total debt and finance lease and other financing obligations, respectively, calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, our measures of organic revenue growth (or decline), adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, adjusted EPS, free cash flow, adjusted corporate and other expenses, gross and net leverage ratio, and adjusted EBITDA may not be the same as, or comparable to, similar non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies.
Organic revenue growth (or decline) and market outgrowth
Organic revenue growth (or decline) is defined as the reported percentage change in net revenue, calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding the period-over-period impact of foreign currency exchange rate differences as well as the net impact of material acquisitions and divestitures for the 12-month period following the respective transaction date(s).
We believe that organic revenue growth (or decline) provides investors with helpful information with respect to our operating performance, and we use organic revenue growth (or decline) to evaluate our ongoing operations as well as for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that organic revenue growth (or decline) provides useful information in
2223

Table of Contents
evaluating the results of our business because it excludes items that we believe are not indicative of ongoing performance or that we believe impact comparability with the prior-year period.
Market outgrowth is calculated as organic revenue growth less our weighted market growth. Our weighted market growth is calculated using our regional and platform sales mix, as applicable, in the corresponding prior period. Market outgrowth is used to describe the impact of an increasing quantity and value of our products used in customer systems and applications above market growth. We believe this provides a more meaningful comparison of our revenue growth relative to the markets we serve.
Adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, and adjusted EPS
We define adjusted operating income as operating income (or loss), determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excludingadjusted to exclude certain non-GAAP adjustments which are described under the heading Non-GAAP adjustmentsAdjustments below. Adjusted operating margin is calculated by dividing adjusted operating income (or loss) by net revenue determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We define adjusted net income as follows: net income (or loss) determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding certain non-GAAP adjustments which are described under the heading Non-GAAP Adjustments below. Adjusted EPS is calculated by dividing adjusted net income by the number of diluted weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding in the period.
We may also refer to certain of these measures, or changes in these measures, on a constant currency basis. Adjusted operating margin calculated on a constant currency basis is determined by stating revenues and expenses at prior period foreign currency exchange rates and excludes the impact of foreign currency exchange rates on all hedges. Adjusted EPS on a constant currency basis is determined in the same manner as adjusted operating margin, but also excludes the change in gain or loss on the remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities.
Management uses adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, and adjusted EPS (and the constant currency equivalent of each) as measures of operating performance, for planning purposes (including the preparation of our annual operating budget), to allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of our business, to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, in communications with our Board of Directors and investors concerning our financial performance, and as factors in determining compensation for certain employees. We believe investors and securities analysts also use these non-GAAP financial measures in their evaluation of our performance and the performance of other similar companies. These non-GAAP financial measures are not measures of liquidity.
Free cash flow
Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less additions to property, plant and equipment and capitalized software. We believe free cash flow is useful to management and investors as a measure of cash generated by business operations that will be used to repay scheduled debt maturities and can be used to, among other things, fund acquisitions, repurchase ordinary shares, and (or) accelerate the repayment of debt obligations.
Adjusted corporate and other expenses
Adjusted corporate and other expenses is defined as corporate and other expenses calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding the portion of non-GAAP adjustments described below that relate to corporate and other expenses. We believe adjusted corporate and other expenses is useful to management and investors in understanding the impact of non-GAAP adjustments on operating expenses not allocated to our segments.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (or loss), determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding interest expense, net, provision for (or benefit from) income taxes, depreciation expense, amortization of intangible assets, and the following non-GAAP adjustments, if applicable: (1) restructuring related and other, (2) financing and other transaction costs, and (3) deferred loss or gain on derivative instruments. Refer to Non-GAAP Adjustments below for additional discussion of these adjustments. We believe that this measure is useful to investors and management in understanding our ongoing operations and in analysis of ongoing operating trends.
Gross leverage ratio
Gross leverage ratio represents gross debt (total debt and finance lease obligations) divided by last twelve months ("LTM") adjusted EBITDA. We believe that gross leverage ratio is a useful measure to management and investors in understanding trends in our overall financial condition.
24

Table of Contents
Net leverage ratio
Net leverage ratio represents net debt (total debt, finance lease and other financing obligations less cash and cash equivalents) divided by last twelve months ("LTM") adjusted EBITDA. We believe that the net leverage ratio is a useful measure to management and investors in understanding trends in our overall financial condition.
Non-GAAP adjustments
Many of our non-GAAP adjustments relate to a series of strategic initiatives developed by our management aimed at better positioning us for future revenue growth and an improved cost structure. These initiatives have been modified from time to time to reflect changes in overall market conditions and the competitive environment facing our business. These initiatives include, among other items, acquisitions, divestitures, restructurings of certain business, supply chain or corporate activities, and various financing transactions. We describe these adjustments in more detail below, each of which is net of current tax impacts, as applicable.
Restructuring related and other: includes net charges related to certain restructuring and other exit activities as well as other costs (or income) that we believe are either unique or unusual to the identified reporting period, and that we believe impact comparisons to prior period operating results. Such costs include charges related to optimization of our manufacturing processes to increase productivity. This type of activity occurs periodically, however each action is unique, discrete, and driven by various facts and circumstances. Such amounts are excluded from internal financial statements and analyses that management uses in connection with financial planning and in its review and assessment of our operating and financial performance, including the performance of our segments.
Financing and other transaction costs: includes losses or gains related to debt financing transactions, losses or gains related to the divestiture of a business, costs incurred, including for legal, accounting, and other professional services, that are directly related to an acquisition, divestiture, or equity financing transaction, mark-to-market losses or gains on

our equity investments, expenses related to compensation arrangements entered into concurrent with the closing of an acquisition, and gains related to changes in the fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration amounts.
Deferred loss or gain on derivative instruments: includes unrealized losses or gains on derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting as well as the impact of commodity prices on our raw material costs relative to the strike price on our commodity forward contracts.
Step-up depreciation and amortization: includes depreciation and amortization expense associated with the step-up in fair value of assets acquired in connection with a business combination (e.g., property, plant and equipment definite-livedand inventories) and amortization of intangible assets, and inventories).assets.
Deferred taxes and other tax related: includes adjustments for book-to-tax basis differences due primarily to the step-up in fair value of fixed and intangible assets and goodwill, the utilization of net operating losses, and adjustments to our valuation allowance in connection with certain acquisitions and tax law changes. Other tax related items include certain adjustments to unrecognized tax benefits and withholding tax on repatriation of foreign earnings.
Amortization of debt issuance costs: represents interest expense related to the amortization of deferred financing costs as well as debt discounts, net of premiums.
Where applicable, the current income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments.
Our definition of adjusted net income excludes the deferred provision for (or benefit from) income taxes and other tax related items described above. As we treat deferred income taxes as an adjustment to compute adjusted net income, the deferred income tax effect associated with the reconciling items presented below would not change adjusted net income for any period presented.

In addition, in order to take advantage of incentive programs offered by various jurisdictions, including tax incentives, we are required to maintain minimum cash balances in these jurisdictions.

Operating activities. Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 20232024 increased compared to the corresponding period of the prior year, primarily due to higher net income and timing of supplier payments and customer receipts. We also paid approximately $17.0 million in additional interest in the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022.

For fiscal year 2023,2024, we anticipate capital expenditures of approximately $170.0 million to $180.0$175.0 million, which we expect to fund with cash on hand.
Financing activities. Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased primarily due to2024 decreased from the prior year period. The prior year period included an early payment of $250.0 million payment on the Term Loan madebalance, which did not have a corresponding payment in the three months ended March 31, 2023 and $16.82024. Partially offsetting this decrease was payment of $79.4 million paid to shareholders in the form of cash dividends paid, partially offset by lower cash paid to repurchase ordinary shares as part of our share repurchase program. On April 25, 2023, we announced that we intendedthe remaining equity interest in a joint venture. Refer to pay down $196.8 million (the remaining outstanding balance) on the Term Loan in the second quarter of 2023, which will be presented as a cash outflow within financing activities.Note 12: Shareholders' Equity for additional information.
Indebtedness and Liquidity
As of March 31, 2023,2024, we had $4.0$3.4 billion in gross indebtedness, which includes finance lease and other financing obligations and excludes debt discounts, premiums, and deferred financing costs.

Senior Secured Credit Facilities
The Credit Agreement provides for the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, consistingwhich consist of the Term Loan, the Revolving Credit Facility, and incremental availability (the "Accordion") under which additional secured credit facilities could be issued under certain circumstances. In the first quarterand second quarters of 2023, we paid $250 million onrepaid the Term Loan. We intend to repay the remaining outstandingLoan balance in the second quarter of 2023.full.
Sources of liquidity
Our sources of liquidity include cash on hand, cash flows from operations, and available capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2023,2024, we had $746.1 million available under the Revolving Credit Facility, net of $3.9 million of obligations in respect of outstanding letters of credit issued thereunder. Outstanding letters of credit are issued primarily for the benefit of certain operating activities. As of March 31, 2023,2024, no amounts had been drawn against these outstanding letters of credit. Availability under the Accordion varies each period based on our attainment of certain financial metrics as set forth in the terms of the Credit Agreement and the indentures under which our senior notes were issued (the "Senior Notes Indentures"). As of March 31, 2023,2024, availability under the Accordion was approximately $1.0$2.0 billion.

Table of Contents
We believe, based on our current level of operations and taking into consideration the restrictions and covenants included in the Credit Agreement and Senior Notes Indentures, that the sources of liquidity described above will be sufficient to fund our operations, capital expenditures, dividend payments, ordinary share repurchases, and debt service for at least the next twelve months. However, we cannot make assurances that our business will generate sufficient cash flows from operations or that future borrowings will be available to us in an amount sufficient to enable us to pay our indebtedness or to fund our other liquidity needs. Further, our highly-leveraged nature may limit our ability to procure additional financing in the future.
Our ability to raise additional financing, and our borrowing costs, may be impacted by short- and long-term debt ratings assigned by independent rating agencies, which are based, in significant part, on our performance as measured by certain credit metrics such as interest coverage and leverage ratios. As of April 21, 2023,20, 2024, Moody’s Investors Service’s corporate credit rating for STBV was Ba2 with a stablepositive outlook, and Standard & Poor’s corporate credit rating for STBV was BB+ with a stable outlook. Any future downgrades to STBV's credit ratings may increase our future borrowing costs but will not reduce availability under the Credit Agreement.
Restrictions and Covenants
The Credit Agreement provides that if our senior secured net leverage ratio exceeds a specified level, we are required to use a portion of our excess cash flow, as defined in the Credit Agreement, generated by operating, investing, or financing activities to prepay some or all of the outstanding borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities. The Credit Agreement also requires mandatory prepayments of the outstanding borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities upon certain asset dispositions and casualty events, in each case subject to certain reinvestment rights, and upon the incurrence of certain indebtedness (excluding any permitted indebtedness). These provisions were not triggered during the three months ended March 31, 2023.2024.
The Credit Agreement and the Senior Notes Indentures contain restrictions and covenants that limit the ability of our wholly-owned subsidiary, STBV, and certain of its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur subsequent indebtedness, sell assets, pay dividends, and make other restricted payments. For a full discussion of these restrictions and covenants, refer to Part II, Item 7:

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Capital Resources included in our 20222023 Annual Report. These restrictions and covenants, which are subject to important exceptions and qualifications set forth in the Credit Agreement and Senior Notes Indentures, were taken into consideration when we established our share repurchase programs and will be evaluated periodically with respect to future potential funding of those programs. As of March 31, 2023,2024, we believe we were in compliance with all covenants and default provisions under our credit arrangements.
Share repurchase programs
From time to time, our Board of Directors has authorized various share repurchase programs, which may be modified or terminated by our Board at any time. We currently have an authorized $500.0 million share repurchase program (the "January 2022 Program")authorization for the September 2023 Program, under which approximately $224.5$461.8 million remained available as of March 31, 2023.2024. In the three months ended March 31, 2024, we repurchased 0.3 million ordinary shares under the September 2023 Program. We did not repurchase any ordinary shares under this program in the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Dividends
In the three months ended March 31, 2022, we repurchased 1.1 million ordinary shares under the January 2022 Program.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
ThereIn November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280), Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, to improve disclosures about a public entity's reportable segments. This guidance requires that a public entity disclose, on an annual and interim basis, significant segment expenses that are no recently issued accounting standards that have been adoptedregularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss and an amount for "other segment items" included in the current perioddetermination of segment operating income. The guidance also requires that a public entity provide all annual disclosures about a reportable segment's profit or loss and assets currently required by FASB ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, in interim periods, and that a public entity provide the title and position of the chief operating decision maker. Other requirements of the guidance are not expected to be material. There is no change to the guidance for identification or aggregation of operating or reportable segments. FASB ASU No. 2023-07 will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The guidance must be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented. We adopted the guidance in futureFASB ASU No. 2023-07 on January 1, 2024 and will include the required new annual and quarterly disclosures in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2024 and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2025, respectively.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, to improve the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring (1) consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and (2) income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. The guidance also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
With the participation of our Chief Executive Officer Chief Financial Officer, and Chief AccountingFinancial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2023.2024. The term "disclosure controls and procedures," as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the U.S.United States Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2023,2024, our Chief Executive Officer Chief Financial Officer, and Chief AccountingFinancial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level.level because of the existence of material weaknesses as described below. As of December 31, 2023, we identified material weaknesses in maintaining an appropriate internal control environment. Management did not specify objectives with sufficient clarity to enable an appropriate level of risk assessment and monitoring. Additionally, our control activities did not adequately and consistently establish policies, procedures, information protocols and communications to design and operate effective controls, due in part, to a lack of appropriate accounting personnel, impacting areas such as inventory and account reconciliation processes in our Americas Accounting and Shared Services teams located in Mexico.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company's annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Although these material weaknesses did not result in a material misstatement to our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, they have been identified as material weaknesses because there is a possibility that they could lead to a material misstatement of account balances or disclosures.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the three months ended March 31, 20232024 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Material Weakness Remediation Plan
We have developed and are executing on a remediation plan, which includes:
The engagement of third-party consultants to evaluate and help formalize internal controls design and framework;
The completion of a risk assessment to determine areas within the internal control structure to strengthen, document and execute.
The augmentation, reorganization or replacement of personnel where necessary to ensure appropriate levels of knowledge and execution to support internal control structure assessment, design and execution.
We are committed to the remediation of these material weaknesses and expect to successfully implement enhanced control processes. However, as we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal control over financial reporting, we may determine that additional measures to address control deficiencies or modifications to the remediation plan are necessary. Therefore, we cannot assure you when these material weaknesses will be remediated, that additional actions will not be required to remediate these material weaknesses, or the costs of any such additional actions.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, even an effective system of internal control over financial reporting can only provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation in accordance with U.S. GAAP.United States generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal controls over financial reporting are subject to various inherent limitations, including cost limitations, judgments used in

decision making, assumptions about the likelihood of future events, the soundness of our systems, the possibility of human error, and the risk of fraud. Moreover, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may be inadequate because of changes in conditions and the risk that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate over time.
