Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Introduction	Introduction A. Background Gates Industrial Corporation plc (the “Company”) is a public limited company that was registered in England and Wales on September 25, 2017. In these condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes, all references to “Gates,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer, unless the context requires otherwise, to Gates Industrial Corporation plc and its consolidated subsidiaries. B. Accounting periods The Company prepares its annual consolidated financial statements for the period ending on the Saturday nearest December 31. Accordingly, the condensed consolidated balance sheet is presented as of April 2, 2022 and January 1, 2022 and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows, and shareholders’ equity are presented, where relevant, for the 91 day period from January 2, 2022 to April 2, 2022, with comparative information for the 91 day period from January 3, 2021 to April 3, 2021. C. Basis of preparation The condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and are presented in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated. The condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of April 2, 2022 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods ended April 2, 2022 and April 3, 2021. Interim period results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. We continue to contend with the ongoing implications of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic. While we have generally seen a rebound in demand from the pandemic-induced declines of 2020, the evolving impact of the pandemic, including the emergence of variants, and continuing measures being taken around the world to combat its spread, may have ongoing implications for our business which may vary from time to time. Some of these impacts may be material but cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The preparation of consolidated financial statements under U.S. GAAP requires us to make assumptions and estimates concerning the future that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Estimates and assumptions are particularly important in accounting for items such as revenue, rebates, impairment of long-lived assets, intangible assets and goodwill, inventory valuation, financial instruments, expected credit losses, product warranties, income taxes and post-retirement benefits. Estimates and assumptions used are based on factors such as historical experience, observance of trends in the industries in which we operate and information available from our customers and other outside sources. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making assumptions and estimates, events and changes in circumstances arising after April 2, 2022, including those resulting from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, may result in actual outcomes that differ from those contemplated by our assumptions and estimates. These condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared on substantially the same basis as Gates’ audited annual consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended January 1, 2022. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2022 has been derived from those audited financial statements. During 2021, the Company implemented a program with an unrelated third party under which we may periodically sell trade accounts receivable from one of our aftermarket customers with whom we have extended payment terms as part of a commercial agreement. The purpose of using this program is to generally offset the working capital impact resulting from this terms extension. All eligible accounts receivable from this customer are covered by the program, and any factoring is solely at our option. Following the factoring of a qualifying receivable, because we maintain no continuing involvement in the underlying receivable, and collectability risk is fully transferred to the unrelated third party, we account for these transactions as a sale of a financial asset and derecognize the asset. Cash received under the program is classified as operating cash inflows in the consolidated statement of cash flows. As of April 2, 2022, the collection of $105.4 million of our trade accounts receivable had been accelerated under this program. During the three months ended April 2, 2022, we incurred costs in respect of this program of $0.6 million, which are recorded under other expenses (income). These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited annual consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended January 1, 2022 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. The accounting policies used in preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements are the same as those applied in the prior year, except for the adoption on the first day of the 2022 fiscal year of the following new Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”): • ASU 2021-10 “ Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance ” In November 2021, the Financial Accountant Standards Board (“FASB”) issued this ASU to increase the transparency of government assistance, including the disclosure of (i) the types of assistance, (ii) an entity’s accounting for the assistance, and (iii) the effect of the assistance on an entity’s financial statements. This update requires certain annual disclosures about transactions with a government that are accounted for by applying a grant or contribution accounting model by analogy, including (i) information about the nature of the transactions and the related accounting policy used to account for them, (ii) the line items on the balance sheet and income statement that are affected by the transactions, and the amounts applicable to each line item, and (iii) significant terms and conditions of the transactions, including commitments and contingencies. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The adoption of this ASU did not have any significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment information	Segment information A. Background The segment information provided in these condensed consolidated financial statements reflects the information that is used by the chief operating decision maker for the purposes of making decisions about allocating resources and in assessing the performance of each segment. The chief executive officer (“CEO”) of Gates serves as the chief operating decision maker. These decisions are based principally on net sales and Adjusted EBITDA (defined below). B. Operating segments and segment assets Gates manufactures a wide range of power transmission and fluid power products and components for a large variety of industrial and automotive applications, both in the aftermarket and first-fit channels, throughout the world. Our reportable segments are identified on the basis of our primary product lines, as this is the basis on which information is provided to the CEO for the purposes of allocating resources and assessing the performance of Gates’ businesses. Our operating and reporting segments are therefore Power Transmission and Fluid Power. Segment asset information is not provided to the chief operating decision maker and therefore segment asset information has not been presented. Due to the nature of Gates’ operations, cash generation and profitability are viewed as the key measures rather than an asset-based measure. C. Segment net sales and disaggregated net sales Sales between reporting segments and the impact of such sales on Adjusted EBITDA for each segment are not included in internal reports presented to the CEO and have therefore not been included below. Three months ended (dollars in millions) April 2, 2022 April 3, 2021 Power Transmission $ 555.6 $ 559.5 Fluid Power 337.8 321.8 Continuing operations $ 893.4 $ 881.3 Our commercial function is organized by region and therefore, in addition to reviewing net sales by our reporting segments, the CEO also reviews net sales information disaggregated by region, including between emerging and developed markets. The following table summarizes our net sales by key geographic region of origin: Three months ended April 2, 2022 Three months ended April 3, 2021 (dollars in millions) Power Transmission Fluid Power Power Transmission Fluid Power U.S. $ 159.1 $ 167.5 $ 155.9 $ 152.7 North America, excluding U.S. 49.2 50.9 46.7 49.4 United Kingdom (“U.K.”) 12.0 17.4 12.7 14.7 EMEA (1) , excluding U.K. 159.7 55.7 162.8 49.6 East Asia and India 74.4 21.0 82.9 23.5 Greater China 80.0 13.5 81.9 24.0 South America 21.2 11.8 16.6 7.9 Net sales $ 555.6 $ 337.8 $ 559.5 $ 321.8 (1) Europe, Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”). The following table summarizes our net sales into emerging and developed markets: Three months ended (dollars in millions) April 2, 2022 April 3, 2021 Developed $ 573.1 $ 555.0 Emerging 320.3 326.3 Net sales $ 893.4 $ 881.3 D. Measure of segment profit or loss The CEO uses Adjusted EBITDA, as defined below, to measure the profitability of each segment. Adjusted EBITDA is, therefore, the measure of segment profit or loss presented in Gates’ segment disclosures. “EBITDA” represents net income for the period before net interest and other expenses (income), income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA before certain items that are considered to hinder comparison of the performance of our businesses on a period-over-period basis or with other businesses. During the periods presented, the items excluded from EBITDA in computing Adjusted EBITDA primarily included: • non-cash charges in relation to share-based compensation; • transaction-related expenses incurred in relation to major corporate transactions, including the acquisition of businesses and related integration activities, and equity and debt transactions; • restructuring expenses, including severance-related expenses; and • inventory adjustments related to certain inventories accounted for on a Last-in First-out (“LIFO”) basis. Adjusted EBITDA by segment was as follows: Three months ended (dollars in millions) April 2, 2022 April 3, 2021 Power Transmission $ 97.8 $ 132.7 Fluid Power 59.0 63.6 Continuing operations $ 156.8 $ 196.3 Reconciliation of net income from continuing operations to Adjusted EBITDA: Three months ended (dollars in millions) April 2, 2022 April 3, 2021 Net income from continuing operations $ 37.4 $ 76.5 Income tax (benefit) expense (2.2) 18.9 Income from continuing operations before taxes 35.2 95.4 Interest expense 32.6 34.4 Other expenses (income) 0.6 (1.2) Operating income from continuing operations 68.4 128.6 Depreciation and amortization 55.1 55.8 Transaction-related expenses (1) 0.8 2.4 Restructuring expenses 0.5 2.9 Share-based compensation expense 24.1 6.3 Inventory impairments and adjustments (2) (included in cost of sales) 7.6 — Severance expenses (included in SG&A) 0.3 0.3 Adjusted EBITDA $ 156.8 $ 196.3 (1) Transaction-related expenses relate primarily to advisory fees and other costs recognized in respect of major corporate transactions, including the acquisition of businesses, and equity and debt transactions.

Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]
Restructuring and other strategic initiatives	Restructuring and other strategic initiativesGates continues to undertake various restructuring and other strategic initiatives to drive increased productivity in all aspects of our operations. These actions include efforts to consolidate our manufacturing and distribution footprint, scale operations to current demand levels, streamline our selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) back-office functions and relocate certain operations to lower cost locations. Overall costs associated with our restructuring and other strategic initiatives have been recognized in the condensed consolidated statements as set forth below. Expenses incurred in relation to certain of these actions qualify as restructuring expenses under U.S. GAAP. Three months ended (dollars in millions) April 2, April 3, Restructuring expenses: —Severance expenses $ — $ 0.5 —Non-severance labor and benefit expenses 0.1 0.8 —Consulting expenses — 0.7 —Other net restructuring expenses 0.4 0.9 Total restructuring expenses $ 0.5 $ 2.9 Expenses related to other strategic initiatives: —Severance expenses included in SG&A 0.3 0.3 Total expenses related to other strategic initiatives $ 0.3 $ 0.3 Restructuring and other strategic initiatives during the three months ended April 2, 2022 related primarily to severance and other labor and benefit costs, and facility closures or relocations in several countries. Expenses incurred in connection with our restructuring and other strategic initiatives during the three months ended April 3, 2021 included $1.2 million related to our European reorganization involving office and distribution center closures or downsizings and the implementation of a regional shared service center, $0.9 million related to the optimization of our Middle East business, and $0.8 million of additional costs related to the closure in 2020 of a manufacturing facility in Korea. Restructuring activities As indicated above, restructuring expenses, as defined under U.S. GAAP, form a subset of our total expenses related to restructuring and other strategic initiatives. These expenses include the impairment of inventory, which is recognized in cost of sales. Analyzed by segment, our restructuring expenses were as follows: Three months ended (dollars in millions) April 2, April 3, Power Transmission $ 0.3 $ 1.6 Fluid Power 0.2 1.3 Continuing operations $ 0.5 $ 2.9 The following summarizes the reserve for restructuring expenses for the three months ended April 2, 2022 and April 3, 2021, respectively: Three months ended (dollars in millions) April 2, April 3, Balance as of the beginning of the period $ 6.5 $ 17.9 Utilized during the period (2.3) (7.0) Charge for the period 0.5 3.8 Released during the period — (0.9) Foreign currency translation (0.2) (0.6) Balance as of the end of the period $ 4.5 $ 13.2 Restructuring reserves, which are expected to be utilized during 2022 and 2023, are included in the condensed consolidated balance sheet within the accrued expenses and other current liabilities line.

Income taxes

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income taxes	Income taxes We compute the year-to-date income tax provision by applying our estimated annual effective tax rate to our year-to-date pre-tax income and adjust for discrete tax items in the period in which they occur. For the three months ended April 2, 2022, we had an income tax benefit of $2.2 million on pre-tax income of $35.2 million, which resulted in an effective tax rate of (6.3)%, compared to an income tax expense of $18.9 million on pre-tax income of $95.4 million, which resulted in an effective tax rate of 19.8% for the three months ended April 3, 2021. For the three months ended April 2, 2022 the effective tax rate was driven primarily by discrete tax benefits of $10.7 million, of which $8.2 million related to the partial valuation allowance release on deferred tax assets for U.S. foreign tax credits, offset partially by jurisdictional mix of taxable earnings. For the three months ended April 3, 2021, the effective tax rate was driven primarily by jurisdictional mix of taxable earnings with no significant discrete items. Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences arising from differences between the carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities under U.S. GAAP and their respective tax bases, and for net operating loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards. We evaluate the recoverability of our deferred tax assets, weighing all positive and negative evidence, and are required to establish or maintain a valuation allowance for these assets if we determine that it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of each reporting date, we consider new evidence, both positive and negative, that could impact our view with regard to the future realization of deferred tax assets. We will maintain our positions with regard to future realization of deferred tax assets, including those with respect to which we continue maintaining valuation allowances, until there is sufficient new evidence to support a change in expectations. Such a change in expectations could arise due to many factors, including those impacting our forecasts of future earnings, as well as changes in the international tax laws under which we operate and tax planning. It is not reasonably possible to forecast any such changes at the present time, but it is possible that, should they arise, our view of their effect on the future realization of deferred tax assets may impact materially our financial statements. After weighing all of the evidence, giving more weight to the evidence that was objectively verifiable, we determined during the three months ended April 2, 2022, that it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets in the U.S. totaling $8.2 million are realizable. As a result of changes in estimates of future taxable profits against which the foreign tax credits can be utilized, our judgment changed regarding valuation allowances on these deferred tax assets.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Earnings per share	Earnings per share Basic earnings per share represents net income attributable to shareholders divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share considers the dilutive effect of potential shares, unless the inclusion of the potential shares would have an anti-dilutive effect. The treasury stock method is used to determine the potential dilutive shares resulting from assumed exercises of equity-related instruments. The computation of earnings per share is presented below: Three months ended (dollars in millions, except share numbers and per share amounts) April 2, April 3, Net income attributable to shareholders $ 30.9 $ 67.3 Weighted average number of shares outstanding 290,448,906 291,166,994 Dilutive effect of share-based awards 5,789,306 5,196,273 Diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding 296,238,212 296,363,267 Number of anti-dilutive shares excluded from diluted earnings per share calculation 4,683,085 4,387,520 Basic earnings per share $ 0.11 $ 0.23 Diluted earnings per share $ 0.10 $ 0.23

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Derivative financial instruments	Derivative financial instruments We are exposed to certain risks relating to our ongoing business operations. From time to time, we use derivative financial instruments, principally foreign currency swaps, forward foreign currency contracts, interest rate caps (options) and interest rate swaps, to reduce our exposure to foreign currency risk and interest rate risk. We do not hold or issue derivatives for speculative purposes and monitor closely the credit quality of the institutions with which we transact. We recognize derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. We designate certain of our currency swaps as net investment hedges and designate our interest rate caps and interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges. The gain or loss on the designated derivative instrument is recognized in other comprehensive income (“OCI”) and reclassified into net income in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Derivative instruments that have not been designated in an effective hedging relationship are considered economic hedges, and their change in fair value is recognized in net income in each period. The period end fair values of derivative financial instruments were as follows: As of April 2, 2022 As of January 1, 2022 (dollars in millions) Prepaid expenses and other assets Other non- Accrued expenses and other Other Net Prepaid expenses and other assets Other non- Accrued expenses and other Other Net Derivatives designated as hedging instruments: —Currency swaps $ 5.1 $ — $ — $ (19.4) $ (14.3) $ — $ — $ (19.8) $ — $ (19.8) —Interest rate caps — — (1.2) — (1.2) — — (1.3) (0.5) (1.8) —Interest rate swaps 5.8 33.4 (10.7) (24.2) 4.3 — 7.7 (12.9) (26.9) (32.1) Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments: —Currency forward contracts 3.7 — (0.4) — 3.3 2.9 — (0.6) — 2.3 $ 14.6 $ 33.4 $ (12.3) $ (43.6) $ (7.9) $ 2.9 $ 7.7 $ (34.6) $ (27.4) $ (51.4) A. Instruments designated as net investment hedges We hold cross currency swaps that have been designated as net investment hedges of certain of our European operations. As of April 2, 2022 and January 1, 2022, the notional principal amount of these contracts was $270.0 million. During March 2022, we extended these swaps, which originally matured on March 2022, to now mature on March 31, 2027. In addition, we have designated €147.0 million of our Euro-denominated debt as a net investment hedge of certain of our European operations. The fair value gains before tax recognized in OCI in relation to the instruments designated as net investment hedging instruments were as follows: Three months ended (dollars in millions) April 2, 2022 April 3, 2021 Net fair value gains recognized in OCI in relation to: —Euro-denominated debt $ 5.1 $ 6.7 —Designated cross currency swaps 5.2 11.5 Total net fair value gains $ 10.3 $ 18.2 During the three months ended April 2, 2022, a net gain of $0.6 million was recognized in interest expense in relation to our cross currency swaps that have been designated as net investment hedges, compared to a net gain of $0.5 million during the three months ended April 3, 2021. B. Instruments designated as cash flow hedges We use interest rate swaps and interest rate caps as part of our interest rate risk management strategy to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. These instruments are all designated as cash flow hedges. As of both April 2, 2022 and January 1, 2022, we held pay-fixed, receive-floating interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $870.0 million, which run from June 30, 2020 through June 30, 2025. Our interest rate caps involve the receipt of variable rate payments from a counterparty if interest rates rise above the strike rate on the contract in exchange for a premium. As of both April 2, 2022 and January 1, 2022, the notional amount of the interest rate caps outstanding was €425 million, covering the period from July 1, 2019 to June 30, 2023. The movements before tax recognized in OCI in relation to our cash flow hedges were as follows: Three months ended (dollars in millions) April 2, 2022 April 3, 2021 Movement recognized in OCI in relation to: —Fair value gain on cash flow hedges $ 33.4 $ 9.7 —Amortization to net income of prior period fair value losses 4.4 4.4 —Reclassification from OCI to net income 1.1 0.9 Total movement $ 38.9 $ 15.0 C. Derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments We do not designate our currency forward contracts, which are used primarily in respect of operational currency exposures related to payables, receivables and material procurement, or the currency swap contracts that are used to manage the currency profile of Gates’ cash as hedging instruments for the purposes of hedge accounting. As of April 2, 2022 and January 1, 2022, there were no outstanding currency swaps. As of April 2, 2022, the notional amount of outstanding currency forward contracts that are used to manage operational foreign exchange exposures was $174.7 million, compared to $171.9 million as of January 1, 2022. The fair value gains recognized in net income in relation to derivative instruments that have not been designated as hedging instruments were as follows: Three months ended (dollars in millions) April 2, 2022 April 3, 2021 Fair value gains recognized in relation to: —Currency forward contracts recognized in SG&A $ 2.5 $ 1.8 Total $ 2.5 $ 1.8

Fair value measurement

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair value measurement	Fair value measurement A. Fair value hierarchy We account for certain assets and liabilities at fair value. Topic 820 “ Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ” establishes the following hierarchy for the inputs that are used in fair value measurement: • “Level 1” inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; • “Level 2” inputs are those other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and • “Level 3” inputs are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value are categorized in one of the three levels on the basis of the lowest-level input that is significant to its valuation. B. Financial instruments not held at fair value Certain financial assets and liabilities are not measured at fair value; however, items such as cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, drawings under revolving credit facilities and bank overdrafts generally attract interest at floating rates and accordingly their carrying amounts are considered to approximate fair value. Due to their short maturities, the carrying amounts of accounts receivable and accounts payable are also considered to approximate their fair values. The carrying amount and fair value of our debt are set out below: As of April 2, 2022 As of January 1, 2022 (dollars in millions) Carrying amount Fair value Carrying amount Fair value Current $ 29.4 $ 29.0 $ 38.1 $ 37.9 Non-current 2,573.2 2,565.8 2,526.5 2,553.0 $ 2,602.6 $ 2,594.8 $ 2,564.6 $ 2,590.9 Debt is comprised principally of borrowings under the secured credit facilities and the unsecured senior notes. Loans under the secured credit facilities pay interest at floating rates, subject to a 0.75% LIBOR floor on the Dollar Term Loan and a 0% EURIBOR floor on the Euro Term Loan. The fair values of the term loans are derived from a market price, discounted for illiquidity. The unsecured senior notes have fixed interest rates, are traded by “Qualified Institutional Buyers” and certain other eligible investors, and their fair value is derived from their quoted market price. C. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis The following table categorizes the assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis: (dollars in millions) Quoted prices in active markets (Level 1) Significant observable inputs (Level 2) Total As of April 2, 2022 Equity investments $ 0.6 $ — $ 0.6 Derivative assets $ — $ 48.0 $ 48.0 Derivative liabilities $ — $ (55.9) $ (55.9) As of January 1, 2022 Equity investments $ 0.6 $ — $ 0.6 Derivative assets $ — $ 10.6 $ 10.6 Derivative liabilities $ — $ (62.0) $ (62.0) Equity investments represent equity securities that are traded in an active market and therefore are measured using quoted prices in an active market. Derivative assets and liabilities included in Level 2 represent foreign currency exchange forward and swap contracts, and interest rate derivative contracts. We value our foreign currency exchange derivatives using models consistent with those used by a market participant that maximize the use of market observable inputs including forward prices for currencies. We value our interest rate derivative contracts using a widely accepted discounted cash flow valuation methodology that reflects the contractual terms of each derivative, including the period to maturity. The methodology derives the fair values of the derivatives using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future cash payments and the discounted expected receipts. The inputs used in the calculation are based on observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves, implied volatilities and credit spreads. We incorporate credit valuation adjustments, which consider the impact of any credit enhancements to the contracts, to appropriately reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy During the periods presented, there were no transfers between Levels 1 and 2, and Gates had no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 3 inputs. D. Assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis Gates has non-recurring fair value measurements related to certain assets, including goodwill, intangible assets, and property, plant, and equipment. No significant impairment was recognized during either the three months ended April 2, 2022 or the three months ended April 3, 2021.

Debt

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
Debt	Debt (dollars in millions) As of April 2, 2022 As of January 1, 2022 Secured debt: —Dollar Term Loan $ 1,360.2 $ 1,363.7 —Euro Term Loan 625.8 647.5 —Asset-backed revolver 70.0 — Unsecured debt: —6.25% Dollar Senior Notes due 2026 568.0 568.0 Total principal of debt 2,624.0 2,579.2 Deferred issuance costs (29.8) (31.5) Accrued interest 8.4 16.9 Total carrying value of debt 2,602.6 2,564.6 Debt, current portion 29.4 38.1 Debt, less current portion $ 2,573.2 $ 2,526.5 Gates’ secured debt is jointly and severally, irrevocably and fully and unconditionally guaranteed by certain of its subsidiaries and is secured by liens on substantially all of their assets. Gates is subject to covenants, representations and warranties under certain of its debt facilities. During the periods covered by these condensed consolidated financial statements, we were in compliance with the applicable financial covenants. Also under the agreements governing our debt facilities, our ability to engage in activities such as incurring certain additional indebtedness, making certain investments and paying certain dividends is dependent, in part, on our ability to satisfy tests based on measures determined under those agreements. Dollar and Euro Term Loans Our secured credit facilities include a Dollar Term Loan credit facility and a Euro Term Loan credit facility that were drawn on July 3, 2014. These term loan facilities bear interest at a floating rate, which for U.S. dollar debt can be either a base rate as defined in the credit agreement plus an applicable margin, or at our option, LIBOR plus an applicable margin. The Euro Term Loan matures on March 31, 2024. On February 24, 2021, we made amendments to the Dollar Term Loan credit agreement, including extending the maturity date of the Dollar Term Loan, from March 31, 2024 to March 31, 2027, reducing the floor applicable to the Dollar Term Loan from 1.00% to 0.75% and modifying the applicable interest rate margin for the Dollar Term Loan to include a 0.25% reduction if our consolidated total net leverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement) is less than or equal to 3.75 times. In connection with these amendments, we paid accrued interest up to the date of the amendments of $3.7 million, in addition to fees of $8.6 million, of which $6.9 million qualified for deferral and will be amortized to interest expense over the new remaining term of the Dollar Term Loan using the effective interest method. The Dollar Term Loan interest rate is currently LIBOR, subject to a floor of 0.75%, plus a margin of 2.50%, and as of April 2, 2022, borrowings under this facility bore interest at a rate of 3.25% per annum. The Dollar Term Loan interest rate is re-set on the last business day of each month. As of April 2, 2022, the Euro Term Loan bore interest at EURIBOR, which is currently below 0%, subject to a floor of 0%, plus a margin of 3.00%. The Euro Term Loan interest rate is re-set on the last business day of each quarter. Both term loans are subject to quarterly amortization payments of 0.25%, based on the original principal amount less certain repayments with the balance payable on maturity. During the three months ended April 2, 2022, we made amortization payments against the Dollar Term Loan and the Euro Term Loan of $3.4 million and $1.8 million, respectively. During the three months ended April 3, 2021, we made amortization payments against the Dollar Term Loan and the Euro Term Loan of $3.5 million and $1.9 million, respectively. Under the terms of the credit agreement, we are obligated to offer annually to the term loan lenders an “excess cash flow” amount as defined under the agreement, based on the preceding year’s final results. Based on our 2021 results, the leverage ratio as defined under the credit agreement was below the threshold above which payments are required, and therefore no excess cash flow payment is required to be made in 2022. During the periods presented, foreign exchange gains were recognized in respect of the Euro Term Loans as summarized in the table below. As a portion of the facility was designated as a net investment hedge of certain of our Euro investments, a corresponding portion of the foreign exchange gains were recognized in OCI. Three months ended (dollars in millions) April 2, April 3, Gain recognized in statement of operations $ 14.7 $ 22.1 Gain recognized in OCI 5.1 6.7 Total gain $ 19.8 $ 28.8 The above net foreign exchange gains recognized in the other expenses (income) line of the condensed consolidated statement of operations have been substantially offset by net foreign exchange movements on Euro-denominated intercompany loans as part of our overall hedging strategy. A wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary of Gates Global LLC is the principal obligor under the Term Loans for U.S. federal income tax purposes and makes the payments due on this tranche of debt. As a result, interest received by lenders of this tranche of debt is U.S. source income. Unsecured Senior Notes As of April 2, 2022, we had $568.0 million of Dollar Senior Notes outstanding that were issued in November 2019. These notes are scheduled to mature on January 15, 2026 and bear interest at an annual fixed rate of 6.25% with semi-annual interest payments. On and after January 15, 2022, we may redeem the Dollar Senior Notes, at our option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the following redemption prices (expressed as a percentage of the principal amount), plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date: Redemption price During the year commencing: —2022 103.125 % —2023 101.563 % —2024 and thereafter 100.000 % Upon the occurrence of a change of control or a certain qualifying asset sale, the holders of the notes will have the right to require us to make an offer to repurchase each holder's notes at a price equal to 101% (in the case of a change of control) or 100% (in the case of an asset sale) of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Revolving credit facility We have a secured revolving credit facility that provides for multi-currency revolving loans. On November 18, 2021, we amended the credit agreement governing this facility to, among other things, increase the size of the facility from $185.0 million to $250.0 million, extend the maturity date from January 29, 2023 to November 18, 2026 (subject to certain springing maturities related to our Euro Term Loan and Unsecured Senior Notes if more than $500.0 million is outstanding in respect of either such facility 91 days prior to their respective maturities), and increase the letter of credit sub-facility from $20.0 million to $75.0 million. In connection with these amendments, we paid fees of $2.0 million, which have been deferred and will, together with existing deferred issuance costs related to this facility, be amortized to interest expense over the new term of the facility on a straight-line basis. As of both April 2, 2022 and January 1, 2022, there were no drawings for cash under the revolving credit facility and there were no letters of credit outstanding. Debt under the revolving credit facility bears interest at a floating rate, which can be either a base rate as defined in the credit agreement plus an applicable margin or, at our option, LIBOR, plus an applicable margin. Asset-backed revolver We also have a revolving credit facility backed by certain of our assets in North America. On November 18, 2021, we amended the credit agreement governing this facility to, among other things, reduce the maximum facility size from $325.0 million to $250.0 million ($250.0 million as of April 2, 2022, compared to $240.4 million as of January 1, 2022, based on the values of the secured assets on those dates), and extended the maturity date from January 29, 2023 to November 18, 2026 (subject to certain springing maturities related to our Euro Term Loan and Unsecured Senior Notes if more than $500.0 million is outstanding in respect of either such facility 91 days prior to their respective maturities). The facility also allows for a letter of credit sub-facility of $150.0 million within the $250.0 million maximum. In connection with these amendments, we paid fees of $1.3 million, which have been deferred and will, together with existing deferred issuance costs related to this facility, be amortized to interest expense over the new term of the facility on a straight-line basis. As of April 2, 2022, we had a balance of $70.0 million outstanding under the asset-backed revolver following a drawing in March 2022 to facilitate the share repurchase transaction discussed further in note 15. As of January 1, 2022, there were no drawings for cash under this facility. The letters of credit outstanding under this facility were $41.9 million and $45.3 million as of April 2, 2022 and January 1, 2022, respectively.

Postemployment Benefits [Abstract]
Post-retirement benefits	Post-retirement benefits Gates provides defined benefit pension plans in certain of the countries in which it operates, in particular, in the U.S. and U.K. All of the defined benefit pension plans are closed to new entrants. In addition to the funded defined benefit pension plans, Gates has unfunded defined benefit obligations to certain current and former employees. Gates also provides other post-retirement benefits, principally health and life insurance coverage, on an unfunded basis to certain of its employees in the U.S. and Canada. Net periodic benefit cost The components of the net periodic benefit cost for pensions and other post-retirement benefits were as follows: Three months ended April 2, 2022 Three months ended April 3, 2021 (dollars in millions) Pensions Other post-retirement benefits Total Pensions Other post-retirement benefits Total Reported in operating income: —Employer service cost $ 0.9 $ — $ 0.9 $ 1.1 $ — $ 1.1 Reported outside of operating income: —Interest cost 4.0 0.3 4.3 3.4 0.3 3.7 —Expected return on plan assets (5.7) — (5.7) (4.9) — (4.9) —Net amortization of prior period losses (gains) 0.3 (0.5) (0.2) 0.4 (0.4) — Net periodic benefit cost $ (0.5) $ (0.2) $ (0.7) $ — $ (0.1) $ (0.1) Contributions $ 2.0 $ 1.2 $ 3.2 $ 2.9 $ 1.3 $ 4.2 The components of the above net periodic benefit cost for pensions and other post-retirement benefits that are reported outside of operating income are all included in the other expenses (income) line in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. For 2022 as a whole, we expect to contribute approximately $10 million to our defined benefit pension plans and approximately $4 million to our other post-retirement benefit plans.

Share-based compensation

Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]
Share-based compensation	Share-based compensation The Company operates a share-based incentive plan over its shares to provide incentives to Gates’ senior executives and other eligible employees. During the three months ended April 2, 2022, we recognized a charge of $24.1 million, compared to $6.3 million in the three months ended April 3, 2021. Awards issued under the 2014 Omaha Topco Ltd. Stock Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”) Gates has a number of share-based incentive awards issued under the 2014 Plan, which was assumed by the Company and renamed the Gates Industrial Corporation plc Stock Incentive Plan in connection with our initial public offering in January 2018. No new awards have been granted under this plan since 2017. The options are split equally into four tiers, each with specific vesting conditions. Tier I options vest evenly over 5 years from the grant date, subject to the participant continuing to provide service to Gates on the vesting date. Tier II, III and IV options vest on achievement of specified investment returns by our majority owners, who are various investment funds managed by affiliates of Blackstone Inc. (“Blackstone” or our “Sponsor”), at the time of a defined liquidity event, which is also subject to the participant’s continued provision of service to Gates on the vesting date. The performance conditions associated with Tiers II, III and IV must be achieved on or prior to July 3, 2022 in order for vesting to occur. All the options expire ten years after the date of grant. During March 2022, a liquidity event as defined occurred following the sale by Blackstone of a certain portion of their interest in Gates and the Tier II and IV options vested as the specified investment returns related to these options had been met. In connection with this vesting, a one-time share-based compensation charge of $16.1 million was recognized. The performance hurdles for the Tier III awards have not yet been met and these options therefore remain unvested as of April 2, 2022. Due to Chinese regulatory restrictions on foreign stock ownership, awards granted under this plan to Chinese employees have been issued as stock appreciation rights (“SARs”). The terms of these SARs are identical to those of the options described above with the exception that no share is issued on exercise; instead, cash equivalent to the increase in the value of the shares from the date of grant to the date of exercise is paid to the employee. These awards are therefore treated as liability awards under Topic 718 “ Compensation - Stock Compensation ” and are revalued to their fair value at each period end. The SARs include option awards with the same vesting terms as the Tier II, III and IV option awards described above, and, due to the vesting event described above, the SAR equivalents of the Tier II and IV awards also vested in March 2022, resulting in a share-based compensation charge of $2.6 million. Changes in the awards granted under this plan are summarized in the tables below. Awards issued under the Gates Industrial Corporation plc 2018 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”) In conjunction with the initial public offering in January 2018, Gates adopted the 2018 Plan, which is a market-based long-term incentive program that allows for the issue of a variety of equity-based and cash-based awards, including stock options, SARs and RSUs. The SARs issued under this plan take the form of options, except that no share is issued on exercise; instead, cash equivalent to the increase in the value of the shares from the date of grant to the date of exercise is paid to the employee. These awards are therefore treated as liability awards under Topic 718 “ Compensation - Stock Compensation ” and are revalued to their fair value at each period end. The SARs and the majority of the share options issued under this plan vest evenly over either three years or four years from the grant date. The remainder of the options, the premium-priced options, vest evenly over a three-year period, starting two years from the grant date. All options vest subject to the participant’s continued employment by Gates on the vesting date and expire ten years after the date of grant.

The unrecognized compensation charge relating to the nonvested Tier III options was $7.2 million, which will be recognized if certain specified investment returns are achieved by Blackstone prior to the expiration of the performance period of these options on July 3, 2022. During the three months ended April 2, 2022, cash of $0.2 million was received in relation to the exercise of vested options, compared to $1.7 million during the three months ended April 3, 2021. The aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised during the three months ended April 2, 2022 was $0.1 million, compared to $1.9 million during the three months ended April 3, 2021.

The total fair value of RSUs and PRSUs vested during the three months ended April 2, 2022 was $11.7 million, compared to $3.1 million during the three months ended April 3, 2021. Valuation of awards granted during the period The grant date fair value of the options and SARs are measured using a Black-Scholes valuation model. RSUs are valued at the share price on the date of grant. The premium-priced options and PRSUs were valued using Monte Carlo simulations. As Gates only has volatility data for its shares for the period since its initial public offering, this volatility has, where necessary, been weighted with the debt-levered volatility of a peer group of public companies in order to determine the expected volatility over the expected option life. The expected option life represents the period of time for which the options are expected to be outstanding and is based on consideration of the contractual life of the option, option vesting period, and historical exercise patterns. The weighted average fair values and relevant assumptions were as follows: Three months ended April 2, April 3, Weighted average grant date fair value: —SARs $ 6.94 $ 6.66 —Share options n/a $ 6.66 —Premium-priced options n/a $ 6.36 —RSUs $ 15.76 $ 15.00 —PRSUs $ 17.23 $ 17.92 Inputs to the model: —Expected volatility - SARs 43.5 % 46.1 % —Expected volatility - share options n/a 46.1 % —Expected volatility - premium-priced options n/a 46.1 % —Expected volatility - PRSUs 49.1 % 50.8 % —Expected option life for SARs (years) 6.0 6.0 —Expected option life for share options (years) n/a 6.0 —Expected option life for premium-priced options (years) n/a 6.0 —Risk-free interest rate: SARs 1.91 % 0.95 % Share options n/a 0.95 % Premium-priced options n/a 0.95 % PRSUs 1.72 % 0.27 %

Equity	Equity Movements in the Company’s number of shares in issue for the three months ended April 2, 2022 and April 3, 2021, respectively, were as follows: Three months ended (number of shares) April 2, April 3, Balance as of the beginning of the period 291,282,137 290,853,067 Exercise of share options 17,828 216,006 Vesting of restricted stock units, net of withholding taxes 744,915 529,909 Shares repurchased and cancelled (3,465,917) — Balance as of the end of the period 288,578,963 291,598,982 The Company has one class of authorized and issued shares, with a par value of $0.01, and each share has equal voting rights. In November 2021, the Company established a repurchase program allowing for up to $200 million in authorized share repurchases. During the three months ended April 2, 2022, Gates repurchased 11,465,917 shares at an aggregate cost of $174.7 million, and incurred an additional $1.2 million of costs related directly to these repurchases. All shares repurchased were cancelled, except for 8,000,000 shares repurchased in March 2022 as described further below, which remained uncancelled at April 2, 2022, and are accordingly reflected as treasury shares. These shares are expected to be cancelled during May 2022. On March 24, 2022, the Company, certain selling shareholders affiliated with Blackstone Inc. and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (“Citigroup”) entered into an underwriting agreement pursuant to which the selling shareholders agreed to sell to Citigroup 5,000,000 ordinary shares of the Company at a price of $15.14 per ordinary share (the “Offering”). The selling shareholders also granted to Citigroup an option to purchase up to 750,000 additional ordinary shares of the Company; this option was exercised in full on March 25, 2022. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the sale of ordinary shares in the Offering, which closed on March 30, 2022. In connection with the Offering, the Company repurchased 8,000,000 ordinary shares through Citigroup from the same selling shareholders at a price of $15.14 per ordinary share for an aggregate consideration of $121.1 million, plus costs directly related to the transaction of $0.8 million. This repurchase was funded by cash on hand and a borrowing of $70.0 million under Gates’ asset-backed revolving credit facility.

Related Party Transactions [Abstract]
Related party transactions	Related party transactions A. Entities affiliated with Blackstone In connection with the initial public offering of Gates, we entered into a Support and Services Agreement with Blackstone Management Partners L.L.C. (“BMP”) under which the Company and certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries reimburse BMP for customary support services provided by Blackstone’s portfolio operations group to the Company at BMP’s direction. BMP will invoice the Company for such services based on the time spent by the relevant personnel providing such services during the applicable period and Blackstone’s allocated costs of such personnel. During the periods presented, no amounts were paid or were outstanding under this agreement. This agreement terminates on the date our Sponsor beneficially owns less than 5% of our ordinary shares and such shares have a fair market value of less than $25.0 million, or such earlier date as may be chosen by Blackstone. As described in note 15, the Company repurchased 8,000,000 ordinary shares through Citigroup from certain shareholders affiliated with Blackstone Inc. for an aggregate consideration of $121.1 million, plus costs directly related to the transaction of $0.8 million. B.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and contingencies	Commitments and contingencies A. Performance bonds, letters of credit and bank guarantees As of April 2, 2022, letters of credit totaling $41.9 million were outstanding against the asset-backed revolving facility, compared to $45.3 million as of January 1, 2022. Gates had additional outstanding performance bonds, letters of credit and bank guarantees amounting to $8.7 million as of April 2, 2022, compared to $6.3 million as of January 1, 2022. B. Contingencies Gates is, from time to time, party to general legal proceedings and claims, which arise in the ordinary course of business. Gates is also, from time to time, party to legal proceedings and claims in respect of environmental obligations, product liability, intellectual property, commercial and contractual disputes, employment matters and other matters which arise in the ordinary course of business and against which management believes Gates has meritorious defenses available. When appropriate, management consults with legal counsel and other appropriate experts to assess claims. If, in management’s opinion, we have incurred a probable loss as set forth by GAAP, an estimate is made of the loss and the appropriate accrual is reflected in our consolidated financial statements. Currently, there are no material amounts accrued. While it is not possible to quantify the financial impact or predict the outcome of all pending claims and litigation, management does not anticipate that the outcome of any current proceedings or known claims, either individually or in aggregate, will materially affect Gates’ financial position, results of operations or cash flows. C. Warranties The following summarizes the movements in the warranty liability for the three months ended April 2, 2022 and April 3, 2021, respectively: Three months ended (dollars in millions) April 2, April 3, Balance as of the beginning of the period $ 18.7 $ 19.8 Charge for the period 3.4 2.5 Payments made (2.8) (2.4) Released during the period (1.5) (0.5) Foreign currency translation (0.1) — Balance as of the end of the period $ 17.7 $ 19.4

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Background	Background Gates Industrial Corporation plc (the “Company”) is a public limited company that was registered in England and Wales on September 25, 2017. In these condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes, all references to “Gates,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer, unless the context requires otherwise, to Gates Industrial Corporation plc and its consolidated subsidiaries.
Accounting periods	Accounting periodsThe Company prepares its annual consolidated financial statements for the period ending on the Saturday nearest December 31. Accordingly, the condensed consolidated balance sheet is presented as of April 2, 2022 and January 1, 2022 and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows, and shareholders’ equity are presented, where relevant, for the 91 day period from January 2, 2022 to April 2, 2022, with comparative information for the 91 day period from January 3, 2021 to April 3, 2021.
Basis of preparation	Basis of preparation The condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and are presented in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated. The condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of April 2, 2022 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods ended April 2, 2022 and April 3, 2021. Interim period results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. We continue to contend with the ongoing implications of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic. While we have generally seen a rebound in demand from the pandemic-induced declines of 2020, the evolving impact of the pandemic, including the emergence of variants, and continuing measures being taken around the world to combat its spread, may have ongoing implications for our business which may vary from time to time. Some of these impacts may be material but cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The preparation of consolidated financial statements under U.S. GAAP requires us to make assumptions and estimates concerning the future that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Estimates and assumptions are particularly important in accounting for items such as revenue, rebates, impairment of long-lived assets, intangible assets and goodwill, inventory valuation, financial instruments, expected credit losses, product warranties, income taxes and post-retirement benefits. Estimates and assumptions used are based on factors such as historical experience, observance of trends in the industries in which we operate and information available from our customers and other outside sources. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making assumptions and estimates, events and changes in circumstances arising after April 2, 2022, including those resulting from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, may result in actual outcomes that differ from those contemplated by our assumptions and estimates. These condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared on substantially the same basis as Gates’ audited annual consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended January 1, 2022. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2022 has been derived from those audited financial statements.
New accounting pronouncements adopted and policies not yet adopted	The accounting policies used in preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements are the same as those applied in the prior year, except for the adoption on the first day of the 2022 fiscal year of the following new Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”): • ASU 2021-10 “ Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance ” In November 2021, the Financial Accountant Standards Board (“FASB”) issued this ASU to increase the transparency of government assistance, including the disclosure of (i) the types of assistance, (ii) an entity’s accounting for the assistance, and (iii) the effect of the assistance on an entity’s financial statements. This update requires certain annual disclosures about transactions with a government that are accounted for by applying a grant or contribution accounting model by analogy, including (i) information about the nature of the transactions and the related accounting policy used to account for them, (ii) the line items on the balance sheet and income statement that are affected by the transactions, and the amounts applicable to each line item, and (iii) significant terms and conditions of the transactions, including commitments and contingencies. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The adoption of this ASU did not have any significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
