PART I

Item 1. Business
PHINIA Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the Company or PHINIA) is a Delaware corporation incorporated in 2023. The Company is a leader in the development, design and manufacture of integrated components and systems that are designed to optimize performance, increase efficiency and reduce emissions in combustion and hybrid propulsion for commercial vehicles and industrial applications (medium-duty and heavy-duty trucks, buses and other off-highway construction, marine, agricultural and industrial applications), light commercial vehicles (vans and trucks) and light passenger vehicles (passenger cars, mini-vans, cross-overs and sport-utility vehicles). We are a global supplier to most major original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) seeking to meet and exceed increasingly stringent global regulatory requirements and satisfy consumer demands for an enhanced user experience. Additionally, we offer a wide range of original equipment service (OES) solutions and remanufactured products as well as an expanded range of products for the independent (non-OEM) aftermarket.
Transition to Standalone Company
On December 6, 2022, BorgWarner Inc., a manufacturer and supplier of automotive industry components and parts (BorgWarner, or Former Parent) announced plans for the complete legal and structural separation of its Fuel Systems and Aftermarket businesses by the spin-off of its wholly-owned subsidiary, PHINIA, which was formed on February 9, 2023 (the Spin-Off).
On July 3, 2023, BorgWarner completed the Spin-Off in a transaction intended to qualify as tax-free to BorgWarner’s stockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes, which was accomplished by the distribution of the outstanding common stock of PHINIA to holders of record of common stock of BorgWarner on a pro rata basis. Each holder of record of BorgWarner common stock received one share of PHINIA common stock for every five shares of BorgWarner common stock held on June 23, 2023, the record date. In lieu of fractional shares of PHINIA, BorgWarner stockholders received cash. As a result of these transactions, all of the assets, liabilities, and legal entities comprising BorgWarner’s Fuel Systems and Aftermarket businesses are now owned directly, or indirectly through its subsidiaries, by PHINIA. PHINIA is an independent public company trading under the symbol “PHIN” on the New York Stock Exchange.

No other single customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s consolidated net sales in any of the years presented. Sales to the Company’s top five customers represented 40% of sales for the year ended December 31, 2024.
The Company’s products are generally sold directly to OEMs, substantially pursuant to negotiated annual contracts, long-term supply agreements or terms and conditions as may be modified by the parties. Deliveries are subject to periodic authorizations based upon OEM production schedules. The Company typically ships its products directly from its plants to the OEMs.
Sales and Marketing
The Fuel Systems and Aftermarket segments each have their own sales function. Account managers for each of our businesses are assigned to serve specific customers for one or more of the businesses’ products. Account managers spend the majority of their time in direct contact with customers’ purchasing and engineering employees and are responsible for servicing existing business and for identifying and obtaining new business. Because of their close relationship with customers, account managers are able to identify and meet customers’ needs based upon their knowledge of our product design and manufacturing capabilities. Upon securing a new order, account managers participate in product launch team activities and serve as a key interface with customers. In addition, sales and marketing employees of our reportable segments often work together to explore cross-development opportunities where appropriate.

Seasonality
Our operations are directly related to the commercial vehicle and light vehicle industries. Consequently, our segments may experience seasonal fluctuations to the extent vehicle production slows, such as for OEM shutdowns in summer or winter, and for aftermarket parts depending on primary repair periods (summer for buses) or primary failure periods due to extreme heat or cold.
Research and Development
We have our own research and development (R&D) organization, including engineers and technicians, engaged in R&D activities at facilities around the globe. We also operate testing facilities such as prototype, measurement and calibration, life-cycle testing, dynamometer testing and validation laboratories. By working closely with OEMs and anticipating their future product needs, our R&D employees conceive, design, develop, test and validate new proprietary components and systems. R&D employees also work to improve current products and production processes. We believe our commitment to R&D will allow us to continue to obtain new orders from our OEM customers.
Our net R&D costs are primarily included in selling, general and administrative expenses of the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Customer reimbursements are netted against gross R&D costs as they are considered a recovery of cost. Customer reimbursements for prototypes are recorded net of prototype costs based on customer contracts, typically either when the prototype is shipped or when it is accepted by the customer. Customer reimbursements for engineering services are recorded when performance obligations are satisfied in accordance with the contract. Financial risks and rewards transfer upon shipment, acceptance of a prototype component by the customer or upon completion of the performance obligation as stated in the respective customer agreement.

Net R&D costs as a percentage of net sales were 3.3%, 3.1% and 3.1% for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Intellectual Property
Intellectual property rights are important and valuable assets to our company. We have in the past and will continue in the future to file applications to protect our own rights, or to obtain licenses from third parties, when and where appropriate. We currently hold over 2,500 active pending applications and issued patents worldwide, and numerous pending and registered trademarks worldwide. Many of our trademarks are well-known in the markets in which we operate, and are key differentiators in particular for our aftermarket business. In certain instances, we also license some of our intellectual property assets to third parties, and in some cases, receive royalties in return. While we consider our intellectual property portfolio on the whole to be important, we do not consider our business to be materially dependent upon any one single intellectual property right or agreement.
Competition
We compete globally with a number of other manufacturers and distributors that produce and sell similar products. Many of these competitors are larger, have more diverse product portfolios and have greater resources than us. Technological innovation, application engineering development, quality, price, delivery and program launch support are the primary methods of competition.
Our major competitors are Robert Bosch GmbH, Cummins Inc., Denso Corporation, Dorman Products, Inc., Hitachi Astemo, Ltd., Hyundai KEFICO, Marelli, Valeo, Schaeffler Group, SEG Automotive, Aisan Industry Co., Ltd., Tenneco, ZF Group, SMP Auto Inc., Vitesco Technologies, Kayser, Mahle GmbH, and TI Fluid Systems.
For many of our products, our competitors include suppliers in parts of the world that enjoy economic advantages such as lower labor costs, lower health care costs, lower tax rates and, in some cases, export subsidies and/or raw materials subsidies. Also, see Item 1A, “Risk Factors.”

Human Capital Management
Our ability to attract, retain and develop a highly skilled workforce globally is critical to our sustained success and the growth of our business. We believe the broad array of skills, backgrounds, experiences, and industry knowledge of our talented employees advance our efforts in cultivating an inclusive culture, driving operational excellence, executing our business strategy and providing innovative products and solutions designed to optimize performance, increase efficiency and solve our customers’ biggest challenges. This belief is core to our human capital management strategy, which is focused on creating an inclusive and performance-based environment that fosters learning and development and empowers our people to deliver business results while supporting our Company values and vision for powering a better tomorrow.
As of December 31, 2024, our workforce was composed of salaried and hourly employees in the following geographic regions.
Americas5,600
Asia1,600
Europe5,500
Total Employees12,700
Salaried4,800
Hourly7,900
Total Employees12,700
We advance our human capital management strategy through programs and initiatives focused on inclusion, total rewards, culture and engagement, learning and development, and health and safety.
Inclusion. Humility, inclusivity, integrity and accountability are the Company’s people-focused core values. We strive to cultivate a culture where differences are valued, respected and embraced and provide tools and opportunities to help all employees reach their full potential. We regularly review our policies, programs and initiatives designed to promote an inclusive workforce and confirm their alignment with our strategies and efforts to foster a highly qualified talent and leadership pipeline consisting of individuals with diverse perspectives, skills and experiences. We believe recognition, and appreciation for, differences in backgrounds and experiences is an important part of creating a greater understanding of each other. Through our various initiatives, we support this belief and showcase the broad spectrum of backgrounds, experiences, and skills of our talented employees.
Our Code of Ethical Conduct outlines our expectations for employees to act ethically and responsibly and sets the tone for employee interactions with each other and external stakeholders to create a respectful, inclusive and productive business environment. We seek to reinforce our employees’ understanding of the Code by requiring training for new hires and refresher training for other employees.
Total Rewards. Our total rewards program is aligned to our employee value proposition and critical to our ability to attract, engage and retain a highly talented workforce. Through this program, we deliver reward and recognition programs and competitive pay and benefit packages, including benefits to support health and wellbeing, disease prevention, management of chronic conditions, and emotional health. All full- and part-time employees are eligible to participate in our retirement plans, family-friendly leave programs, and flexible work policies, unless precluded by collective bargaining agreements or national statutory plans.
Additionally, our compensation infrastructure for salaried employees provides a globally consistent framework, with appropriate flexibility and country specific market data informing pay decisions and supporting our ability to provide market competitive compensation, which enables us to attract and retain highly qualified talent. We offer pay and benefits that are competitive and consistent with employee positions, skill levels, experience, knowledge, and geographic location.
Culture and Engagement. We regularly conduct engagement surveys to solicit feedback from employees on a variety of topics. We incorporate this feedback into actions plans across the organization with the aim of continually improving the employee experience and ensuring our workforce remains engaged and motivated to deliver outstanding results. Our team closely monitors employee turnover as part of our efforts to identify potential opportunities for improving employee retention. Additionally, we give our employees the opportunity to give back to their local communities, through community service, environmental initiatives, and educational involvement.

Table of Contents
Employees at some of our non-U.S. facilities are unionized. We recognize that, in many of the locations where we operate, employees have freedom of association rights with third-party organizations such as labor unions. We respect and support those rights, including the right to collective bargaining, in accordance with local laws.
Learning and Development. We provide training and formal development opportunities for our employees to enable them to build the skills needed to reach their short- and long-term career goals. These opportunities are delivered to employees in a variety of formats to make our portfolio of learning and development solutions flexible, accessible, scalable and translatable to meet the needs of our evolving global workplace and workforce.
Our formal performance management system enables managers and employees to set goals that align to our strategy and core values, provide formal feedback throughout the year, and identify professional development goals and opportunities to assist employees in reaching their full potential. We also offer employees the opportunity to participate in traditional and reverse mentoring programs. Our reverse mentoring program pairs early career talent with more senior leadership and is designed to promote collaboration, foster dialogue, and raise awareness and understanding of different perspectives to deliver on our collective goals. Finally, we have a regular cadence of talent reviews and robust succession plans for key roles in the Company, which includes the use of talent pools to help tailor development in line with career aspirations and trajectories.
Health and Safety. The health and safety of our employees is a top priority. We are dedicated to continually improving health and safety performance through education, managing and mitigating risk and building a culture where safety comes first and is embedded as a value. We maintain safety management systems at all of our manufacturing facilities. Our manufacturing locations that supply directly to OEM customers are certified to the ISO 45001:2018 Occupational health and safety management standard.
We engage employees across different roles and geographies through ongoing workplace safety training and prevention initiatives, best practice sharing, safety meetings, and recognition programs. These initiatives and programs aim to facilitate engagement, share successes and focus employees on continually improving the safety of our work environments and fostering safe and healthy practices.
Raw Materials
We use a variety of raw materials in the production of our products including aluminum, copper, nickel, plastic resins, steel, certain alloy elements, and semiconductor chips. Manufacturing operations for each of our operating segments are dependent upon natural gas (including carbon dioxide and helium), fuel oil, and electricity.
We use a variety of measures to limit the impact of supply shortages and inflationary pressures. Our global procurement organization works to accelerate cost reductions, purchase from best-cost regions, optimize the supply base, mitigate risk, and collaborate on our buying activities. In addition, we use long-term contracts, cost sharing arrangements, design changes, customer buy programs, and limited financial instruments to help control costs wherever beneficial. The Company intends to use similar measures in 2025 and beyond. Refer to Note 14, “Financial Instruments,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for information related to the Company’s hedging activities.
Prices for commodities remain volatile, and since the beginning of 2021, the Company has experienced price increases for energy and base metals (e.g., steel, aluminum and copper) while slightly decreasing in 2024. In addition, many global economies are experiencing elevated levels of inflation more generally, which is driving an increase in other input costs. As a result, the Company has experienced, and is continuing to experience, higher costs. For 2025, the Company believes there will be lower levels of continued inflationary pressures in certain raw materials, labor and energy. Supplies of other raw materials are adequate and available from multiple sources to support our manufacturing requirements.
Government Regulations
We are subject to extensive and varied laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which we operate, including those relating to anti‑corruption and trade, anti-money laundering, environmental matters, import and export compliance, antitrust, data security and privacy, employment, public health and safety, intellectual property, transportation, zoning, and fire codes. Our policies mandate compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, and we operate our business in accordance with standards and procedures designed to comply with these laws and regulations.
Our practice is to identify potential regulatory and quality risks early in the design and development process and proactively manage them throughout the product lifecycle through the use of routine assessments, protocols, standards, performance measures and audits. New regulations and changes to existing regulations are managed in

collaboration with our OEM customers and implemented through our global systems and procedures designed to ensure compliance with existing laws and regulations. We demonstrate material content compliance through the International Material Data System (IMDS), which is the vehicle industry material data system. In the IMDS, all materials used for vehicle manufacturing are archived and maintained to meet the obligations placed on the vehicle manufacturers, and thus on their suppliers, by national and international standards, laws and regulations.
The Company works collaboratively with a number of stakeholder groups, including government agencies such as the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, our customers and our suppliers, to proactively engage in federal, state and international public policy processes.
Refer to Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” for a discussion of the impact of environmental regulations on the Company’s business. Also, see Item 1A, “Risk Factors.”

Item 1A.    Risk Factors    
Our business is subject to various risks and uncertainties. While we believe we have identified and discussed below the key risk factors affecting our business, there may be additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to PHINIA or that PHINIA currently deems immaterial that may materially adversely affect us in future periods. Any of the risks and uncertainties described below could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations, including causing PHINIA’s actual results to differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking statements. Although the risks are organized by heading, and each risk is described separately, many of the risks are interrelated.
Risks Related to Our Industry and Strategy
Adverse changes in general business and economic conditions, including recessions, adverse market conditions or downturns impacting the vehicle and industrial equipment industries, have in the past and may in the future adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Our business, financial condition and results of operations are sensitive to global and regional business and economic conditions, particularly those specific to the global vehicle and industrial equipment industries. Commercial vehicle, industrial application and light vehicle production and sales are cyclical and sensitive to general economic conditions and other factors, including inflation, interest rates, consumer credit, and consumer spending and preferences. Economic declines resulting in significant reductions in commercial vehicle or light vehicle production have in the past adversely affected our business, financial condition and results of operations, including our sales to OEMs, and could again in the future. Many global economies have continued to experience elevated levels of inflation more generally, which has led to an increase in other input costs. As a result, the Company has experienced, and may continue to experience, higher costs. Although the Company has had success offsetting higher costs through a combination of productivity and customer recoveries, there can be no guarantee that the Company will continue to be successful doing so in the future, should inflation remain at elevated levels.
If we do not deliver new products, services and technologies in response to changing consumer preferences and increased regulation of greenhouse gas emissions, or if the market for electric vehicles grows faster than expected, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be adversely impacted.
The global vehicle industry has been, and is largely expected to continue to be, focused on increased fuel efficiency and reduced emissions, including the development of hybrid and electric vehicles, primarily as a result of changing consumer preferences and increasingly stringent global regulatory requirements related to the impacts of climate change. In past years, electric vehicle use has increased, with some cities limiting access to, and a number of countries and jurisdictions implementing regulations that require a reduction or phase-out of sales of, certain commercial and light combustion-powered vehicles, accelerating toward 2030 and beyond. While rates of growth of electric vehicle adoption and production have slowed in recent years compared to earlier expectations due to several factors, in particular lower than anticipated consumer acceptance, the regulatory landscape remains challenging. In the event that reductions or phase outs are ultimately required that would have an impact on production at OEMs and, in turn, sales of our products. We will continue to consider these trends and related shifts in the industry, including in the context of our product line, growth and innovation and development strategies.
Through our products and solutions, we are focused on enhancing fuel efficiency and driving growth through our ability to capitalize on other trends, such as the adoption of alternative fuels (e.g., hydrogen, ammonia, ethanol, compressed natural gas and other zero- or lower-carbon fuel types) for combustion-powered vehicles, industrial machinery and other applications. Given the early stages of development of some of these new products and solutions, there can be no guarantee of the future market acceptance and investment returns with respect to our planned products. The ongoing energy transition away from fossil fuels and the adoption of electrified powertrains in some market segments, notably the passenger car market segment, has resulted, and could continue to result, in lower demand for certain of our products. If we do not continue to develop or acquire new and compelling products that gain acceptance with OEMs, if we do not expand our offerings of combustion-agnostic products and solutions, if the market adoption for electric vehicles (particularly commercial vehicles) grows faster than expected, or if authorities implement additional or more stringent limits or phase-outs for combustion-powered vehicles on a broad basis, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely impacted.
We face strong competition.
We compete globally with a number of manufacturers and distributors that produce and sell products that are similar to ours. Price, quality, speed of delivery, technological innovation, supply chain resilience, sourcing strategies (which
12

Table of Contents
could include the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning), engineering development, and program launch support are primary elements of competition. Our competitors include a large number of independent domestic and international suppliers, primarily in the automotive and industrial equipment sectors. A number of our competitors are larger than us and have more diverse product portfolios, and some competitors have greater financial and other resources than we do. Our customers, faced with intense international competition, have continued to expand their global sourcing of components. As a result, we have experienced competition from suppliers in other parts of the world that enjoy economic advantages, such as lower labor costs, lower healthcare costs, lower tax rates and, in some cases, export or raw material subsidies. Increased competition could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, any of our competitors may foresee the course of market development more accurately than we do, develop products that are superior to our offerings, produce similar products at a cost that is lower than our production cost, or adapt more quickly than we do to new technologies or evolving customer and regulatory requirements. As a result, our products may not be able to compete successfully with our competitors’ products, and we may not be able to meet the growing demands of customers. These trends could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations, including our sales and the profit margins on our products.
The failure to identify, consummate, effectively integrate or realize the expected benefits from acquisitions or partnerships could adversely affect our growth and our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
We periodically evaluate selective acquisitions, partnerships, and strategic investments in connection with our growth strategy. The success of our growth strategy is dependent, in part, on our ability to identify suitable acquisition or partnership candidates, prevail against competing potential acquirers or partners and negotiate and consummate acquisitions or partnerships on terms attractive to us. It is also dependent on our ability to effectively integrate and realize the expected benefits from acquisitions or partnerships.
To realize the anticipated benefits of acquisitions or partnerships, both companies must be successfully combined. The combination of independent businesses is a complex, costly, and time-consuming process that requires significant management attention and resources. It is possible that the integration process could result in the loss of key employees, the disruption of our operations, the inability to maintain or increase our competitive presence, inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies, difficulties in achieving anticipated cost savings, synergies, business opportunities and growth prospects from the acquisition, the diversion of management’s attention to integration matters, difficulties in the assimilation of operations, employees and corporate cultures, and/or the realization of unknown or inestimable liabilities relating to the acquired business or inaccurate assessment of undisclosed, contingent or other liabilities or complexities. Any or all of these factors could adversely affect our ability to maintain relationships with customers and employees, or achieve the anticipated benefits of the acquisition on the timeline expected, and could have an adverse effect on the combined company. In addition, many of these factors are outside of our control, and any one of these factors could result in additional or unforeseen costs, decreases in the amount of expected revenues and additional diversion of management’s time and energy, which could adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Risks Related to Our Business and Operations
We are under substantial pressure from OEMs to reduce the prices of our products.
There is substantial and continuing pressure on OEMs to reduce costs, including the costs of products we supply. OEM customers expect annual price reductions in our business. To maintain our profit margins, we seek periodic price reductions from our suppliers in response to this expectation, to improve production processes to increase manufacturing efficiency, and to streamline product designs to reduce costs. In recent years, however, many of our suppliers have sought to increase prices in order to offset inflationary and other costs and surcharges. Although we seek to recover inflationary and other costs and surcharges from our customers and have had some success in the past in recovering a portion of these costs and surcharges, our ability to pass through increased costs to our OEM customers is limited (with any cost recovery often less than 100% and on a delayed basis) and there can be no assurance that such recoveries will continue in the future. Our inability to reduce costs (in an amount equal to or less than) annual price reductions, increases in tariffs, increases in raw material costs, increases in employee wages and benefits and other inflationary headwinds could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We continue to face volatile costs of commodities used in the production of our products and elevated levels of inflation.
We use a variety of commodities (including aluminum, copper, nickel, plastic resins, steel, other raw materials and energy) and materials purchased in various forms, such as castings, powder metal, forgings, stampings and bar stock, in the production of our products. In recent years, prices for many of these commodities have increased. We have sought to alleviate the impact of increasing costs by including a material pass-through provision in our customer contracts wherever possible and by selectively hedging certain commodity exposures. Customers frequently challenge these contractual provisions and rarely pay the full cost of any increases in the cost of materials. The discontinuation or lessening of our ability to pass through or hedge increasing commodity costs could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
From time to time, commodity prices may also fall rapidly. If this happens, suppliers may withdraw capacity from the market until prices improve, which may cause periodic supply interruptions. The same may be true of transportation carriers and energy providers. If these supply interruptions occur, it could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Prices for commodities remain volatile, and since the beginning of 2021, the Company has experienced price increases for energy and base metals (e.g., steel, aluminum and copper) while slightly decreasing in 2024. In addition, beginning in 2023, many global economies, including the United States, experienced elevated levels of inflation more generally, which drove an increase in input costs. We have pricing-related agreements with various customers, but these agreements do not enable us to recover 100 percent of our increased costs, and as a result, our operating margins have been negatively impacted. While we will continue to negotiate the pass through and recovery of higher costs with our customers, perpetuation of this trend could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Changes in U.S. and foreign administrative policy, including changes to existing trade agreements and any resulting changes in international trade relations, may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We manufacture, sell and service products globally and rely upon a global supply chain to deliver the raw materials, components, systems and parts that we need to manufacture and service our products. Changes in laws, regulations and government policies on foreign trade and investment can affect the demand for our products and services, cause customers to shift preferences towards domestically manufactured or branded products, and impact the competitive position of our products or prevent us from being able to sell or manufacture products in certain countries. Our business benefits from free trade agreements, such as the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement. Efforts to withdraw from, or substantially modify, such agreements or arrangements, or actions taken in contravention of such agreements or arrangements, or the implementation of more restrictive trade policies, such as higher tariffs relevant to our operations (particularly in Mexico and China), import or export licensing requirements and exchange controls or new barriers to entry, could limit our ability to capitalize on current and future growth opportunities in international markets, impair our ability to expand the business by offering new technologies, products and services, and adversely impact our production costs, customer demand, our competitiveness and our relationships with customers and suppliers. Such actions can be announced with little or no advance notice, and we may not be able to effectively mitigate all adverse impacts from such measures. Any of these consequences could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
If we are unable to protect our intellectual property or if a third party makes assertions against us or our customers relating to intellectual property rights, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
We own important intellectual property, including patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets, and are involved in numerous licensing arrangements. Our intellectual property plays an important role in maintaining our competitive position in a number of the markets that we serve. Our competitors may develop technologies that are similar or superior to our proprietary technologies or design alternatives to the technologies utilizing the patents we own or license. Further, as we expand our operations in jurisdictions where the enforcement of intellectual property rights is less robust, the risk of others duplicating our proprietary technologies or supplying counterfeit goods at lower prices under confusingly similar or identical trademarks, increases, despite the efforts we undertake to protect our intellectual property. Our inability to protect or enforce our intellectual property rights, or claims that we are infringing on the intellectual property rights of others, could adversely affect our competitive position, as well as our business, financial condition and results of operations.

A failure of or disruption in our information technology infrastructure, including a disruption related to cybersecurity, could adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We rely on the capacity, reliability and security of our information technology systems and infrastructure. Information technology systems are vulnerable to disruptions, including those resulting from cybersecurity attacks, failures or vulnerabilities in third-party provided products and services, and natural disasters or adverse weather events. In addition, the rapid evolution and increased adoption of artificial intelligence technologies may intensify our cybersecurity risks. Disruptions in, attacks on and the integrity of our information technology systems, or on the information systems, products or services of third parties with which we engage, pose a risk to the security of our systems and data, including the data of our employees, customers and suppliers. Some cybersecurity attacks or incidents result from human error or manipulation (including phishing attacks or other schemes that use social engineering to gain access to systems), carry out disbursement of funds or other frauds, or involve ransomware, malware and other advanced persistent threats that increase the risks and costs associated with protecting against such attacks. We have implemented cybersecurity and data protection policies, processes and strategies that are informed by regulatory and business requirements and industry practices. These policies, processes and strategies are designed to help (i) identify, prevent and mitigate against evolving cybersecurity threats to the Company; (ii) preserve the confidentiality, security and availability of the information that we collect and store for use in operating our business; (iii) protect the Company’s intellectual property; (iv) maintain the confidence of our customers, suppliers, other business partners and employees; and (v) provide appropriate public disclosure of cybersecurity risks and incidents when required.
Despite these efforts, we have experienced targeted and non-targeted cybersecurity attacks and incidents in the past that have resulted in unauthorized persons gaining access to our information and systems, and we could in the future experience similar attacks. To date, no cybersecurity attack or incident, or any risk from cybersecurity threats, has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect the Company or our business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition. Nevertheless, cybersecurity attacks on the Company continue unabated and future cybersecurity attacks or incidents could potentially lead to the inappropriate disclosure of confidential information (including our intellectual property or employee, customer or supplier data), improper use of our systems and networks, access to and manipulation and destruction of our third-party data, production downtimes or delays, lost revenues, inappropriate disbursement of funds, and both internal and external supply shortages. In addition, we expect, and may be required, to continue to incur significant additional costs to protect against damage caused by cybersecurity attacks or incidents in the future. The consequences of a cybersecurity attack or incident could cause significant damage to our reputation, affect our relationships with our employees, customers, suppliers, and other business partners, or lead to governmental investigations or claims against us, and ultimately, adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our inability to identify, attract, retain and develop a qualified global workforce could adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations and impair our ability to meet our strategic objectives and the needs of our customers.
Our continued success depends in part on our ability to identify, attract and onboard qualified candidates with the requisite education, background, skills and experience, and our ability to retain, develop and engage employees across our business, including our sales, manufacturing, research and development, information technology, corporate and other operations and functions. To the extent we are unable to remain competitive with our total rewards programs (which includes compensation and benefits programs and practices), human capital management strategies and objectives, or inclusive workplace culture, or if qualified candidates or employees become more difficult to attract or retain under reasonable terms, we may experience higher labor-related costs and significant employee turnover, and may be unable to attract and retain a qualified global workforce, including members of management, other senior leaders and employees with key engineering and technical skills, in numbers sufficient for our needs. These factors could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations, and impair our ability to meet our strategic objectives and the needs of our customers.
Our profitability and results of operations may be adversely affected by program launch difficulties.
The launch of a new vehicle program for a customer is a complex process, the success of which depends on a wide range of factors, including the production readiness of our manufacturing facilities and processes and those of our suppliers, as well as factors related to tooling, equipment, employees, initial product quality and other factors. Our failure to successfully launch vehicle programs, or our inability to accurately estimate costs to design, develop and launch new vehicle programs, could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
15

Table of Contents
To the extent we are not able to successfully launch a new vehicle program, our customer’s vehicle production could be significantly delayed or shut down. Such situations could result in significant financial penalties to us, or a diversion of employees and financial resources to improving launches rather than investing in continuous process improvement or other growth initiatives, and could result in our customers shifting work away from us to a competitor, any of which could result in loss of revenue or loss of market share and could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We could incur restructuring charges as we execute restructuring and other actions in an effort to improve future profitability and competitiveness and to optimize our product portfolio, and we may not achieve the anticipated savings and benefits from these actions.
We have initiated, and we may continue to initiate, restructuring and other measures, including those designed to improve the competitiveness of our business and sustain our margin profile, optimize our product portfolio or global footprint, create an optimal legal entity structure, or reduce existing structural costs. We may not realize anticipated savings or benefits from past or future actions in full or in part or within the time periods anticipated. We are also subject to the risks of labor unrest, negative publicity and business disruption in connection with our actions. Failure to realize anticipated savings or benefits from our actions could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The occurrence or threat of extraordinary events, including natural disasters or extreme weather events, political disruptions, terrorist attacks, pandemics or other public health crises, and acts of war, have in the past and could in the future disrupt production or impact consumer spending or the demand for our products and solutions.
Extraordinary events, including natural disasters or extreme weather events (including those that may result from the impacts of climate change), fires or similar catastrophic events, political disruptions, terrorist attacks, pandemics or other public health crises, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, and acts of war have in the past and may in the future disrupt our business or operations, impact our supply chain and access to necessary raw materials, or adversely affect the global economy generally, resulting in a loss of sales and customers and an increase in costs. Any of these disruptions or other extraordinary events outside of our control that impact our operations or the operations of our suppliers or customers could have a future adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, these types of events could negatively impact consumer spending or result in changes in the demand for certain products and solutions in the impacted regions or globally, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We are subject to risks related to our international operations.
Nearly all of our manufacturing facilities are outside the U.S., including other regions in the Americas, Europe, and Asia. Consequently, our results would be affected by changes in trade, monetary and fiscal policies, trade restrictions or prohibitions, import tariffs or other charges or taxes, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, limitations on the repatriation of funds, changing economic conditions, unreliable intellectual property protection and legal systems, insufficient infrastructures, social unrest, political instability and disputes, international terrorism, acts of war and other factors that may be discrete to a particular country or geography. Compliance with multiple and potentially conflicting laws and regulations of various countries is challenging, burdensome, and expensive.
The financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are translated to U.S. Dollars using the period-end exchange rate for assets and liabilities and an average exchange rate for each period for revenues, expenses and capital expenditures. The local currency is typically the functional currency for our foreign subsidiaries. While we did not experience significant foreign currency impacts during 2024, significant foreign currency fluctuations and the associated translation of those foreign currencies could adversely affect our business. Additionally, significant changes in currency exchange rates, particularly the Euro, Chinese Renminbi, British Pound, Brazilian Real and Indian Rupee could cause fluctuations in the reported results of our businesses’ operations that could negatively affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Because we are a U.S. holding company, one significant source of our funds is distributions from our non-U.S. subsidiaries. Certain countries in which we operate have adopted or could institute currency exchange controls that limit or prohibit our local subsidiaries’ ability to convert local currency into U.S. Dollars or to make payments outside the country. This could subject us to the risks of local currency devaluation and business disruption.

Our business in China is subject to aggressive competition and is sensitive to economic, political, social and market conditions.
Maintaining a strong position in the Chinese market is a key component of our global strategy. The vehicle and other equipment supply markets in China are highly competitive, with competition from many of the largest global manufacturers and numerous smaller domestic manufacturers. As the Chinese market evolves, many market participants have acted aggressively to increase or maintain their market share. Increased competition has contributed to pricing pressure, reduced margins and limited our ability to gain or hold market share. Our business in China is also sensitive to economic, political, social and market conditions that drive sales volumes in China. If we are unable to maintain our position in the Chinese market or if vehicle sales in China decrease, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. In addition, there continues to be significant uncertainty about the future relationships between the U.S. and China, including with respect to trade policies, treaties, government regulations and tariffs. Any increased trade barriers or restrictions on global trade, particularly trade with China, could adversely impact our competitiveness in the Chinese market and our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Risks Related to Our Customers and Suppliers
We face credit, operational and sales concentration risks related to our customers.
We rely on sales to OEMs around the world of varying credit quality and manufacturing demands. Supply to several of these customers requires significant investment by us. We base our growth projections, in part, on commitments made by our customers. These commitments by OEMs generally renew yearly during a program life cycle. Among other things, the level of production orders we receive is dependent on the ability of our OEM customers to design and sell products that consumers desire to purchase. If actual production orders from our customers do not approximate such commitments due to a variety of factors including non-renewal of purchase orders, a customer’s financial hardship or other unforeseen reasons, it could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We have in the past and likely will in the future derive a significant portion of our net sales from a relatively limited number of OEM customers. For the year ended December 31, 2024, our top five customers accounted for approximately 40% of our net sales, with General Motors Company representing 17%. The loss of, or a significant decrease in business from, one or more of these customers could have a materially adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, any consolidation among our top customers may further increase our customer concentration risk.
Disruptions in our supply chain have in the past and could in the future adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
We obtain components and other products and services from numerous suppliers and other vendors throughout the world. In an effort to manage and reduce the cost of purchased products and services, we have been rationalizing aspects of our supply base, which has resulted in our dependence on fewer supply sources for certain components used in the manufacture of our products. We select and maintain relationships with suppliers considering a variety of factors, including price, quality, technology, production capacities, reliability, customer requirements, environmental sustainability and other responsible business practices, financial condition and geographic location. We expect our suppliers to deliver components in accordance with our stated expectations.
In recent years, the global economy and entire industries have experienced global supply chain shortages and other disruptions, including due to natural disasters or extreme weather events, political disruptions, pandemics or other public health crises, terrorist attacks, acts of war, labor or social unrest, government actions (such as relating to trade laws and tariffs), cybersecurity attacks or incidents and other circumstances. For the automotive industry in particular, although global supply chains have recovered from the disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, other circumstances (such as the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, natural disasters and extreme weather events) have caused supply constraints for certain components that have impacted, and some of which continue to impact, global industry production levels. These circumstances and other rapidly changing industry conditions (such as volatile production volumes; credit tightness; tariffs and changes in trade policy and relations; changes in foreign currencies; raw material, commodity, transportation and energy price escalation; drastic changes in consumer preferences; and other factors) have resulted or could in the future result in significant supply disruptions, supplier financial instability or distress, or commercial disputes with suppliers and customers.
If we experience a prolonged shortage of critical components from any of our suppliers and cannot procure such components from other sources, we may be unable to meet the production schedules for some of our key products

and customer delivery expectations. In certain instances, it would be difficult and expensive for us to change suppliers that are critical to our business. Such suppliers may perceive this reliance as greater leverage to seek higher prices from us at a time that we face substantial pressure from OEMs to reduce the prices of our products.
Further, we may provide financial support to distressed suppliers or take other measures to protect our supply lines. The circumstances and conditions described in this section have resulted or could in the future result in additional costs and adversely impact our relationships with customers or suppliers or our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Work stoppages, production shutdowns and similar events or conditions could significantly disrupt and adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Because the vehicle and equipment industries rely heavily on just-in-time delivery of components during the assembly and manufacture of products, a work stoppage or production shutdown at one or more of our suppliers’ facilities, including as a result of a prolonged dispute with unionized employees at such facilities, could impact our ability to manufacture and assemble our products and solutions, or meet the needs of our customers, which could have significant adverse effects on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Similarly, if one or more of our customers were to experience a work stoppage or production shutdown, that customer would likely halt or limit purchases of our products, which could result in the shutdown of the related manufacturing facilities. Strikes against certain of our customers adversely impacted our results of operations during 2023, as automakers limited purchases of our products during the strikes due to the halt of their own production. Any future strikes that continue for a prolonged period could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
In addition to our suppliers and customers, a work stoppage or production shutdown at one or more of our manufacturing and assembly facilities, including as a result of a prolonged dispute with the unionized employees at certain of our international facilities, could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Risks Related to Regulatory, Legal, and Similar Matters
We are, and in the future may be, subject to governmental investigations and related proceedings regarding vehicle emissions standards.
In recent years within the vehicle industry, there have been governmental investigations and related proceedings relating to alleged or actual violations of vehicle emissions standards. Alleged or actual violations by us, or to our knowledge, our predecessor entities of emissions standards have in the past resulted in a government investigation and could in the future result in government investigations and other legal proceedings, including class actions and other private civil actions, the recall of one or more of our products, negotiated remedial actions, fines, disgorgement of profits, restricted product offerings, reputational harm or a combination of any of those items. Any of these actions or related costs that we incur could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. As previously reported, German authorities announced a diesel defeat device investigation in 2022, which we believe is focused on engines sold by two of our light vehicle OEM customers prior to 2020, when the Former Parent acquired Delphi Technologies PLC. PHINIA is the indirect parent of the Delphi Technologies entity that supplied engine control units, software and calibration services to these OEM customers, and German authorities searched two of our facilities seeking information relating to software supplied to the customers. Under the Separation and Distribution Agreement we entered into with the Former Parent in connection with the Spin-Off, we are generally allocated responsibility for any consequences arising out of the German investigation and any similar investigations. We are cooperating with the German investigation, which is ongoing and has resulted, and will continue to result in, us incurring significant costs and could ultimately lead to any of the consequences we outline above.
We are subject to extensive environmental, health and safety, human rights and other laws and regulations that are subject to change and may involve significant risks.
Our operations and products are subject to laws governing, among other things: emissions to air; discharges to waters; the generation, management, transportation and disposal of waste and other materials; packaging; health and safety; human rights; and other matters relating to corporate sustainability. Our global supply chain and the operation of vehicle and industrial equipment parts manufacturing plants entails risks in these areas, and we may incur material costs or liabilities as a result. A number of our manufacturing facilities were acquired prior to the completion of the Spin-Off, and as a result, we may incur material costs and liabilities relating to activities that predate our ownership or the ownership of the Former Parent. In addition, potentially significant expenditures could be required to comply with evolving interpretations of existing environmental, health and safety, human rights and
18

Table of Contents
other laws and regulations, new such laws and regulations currently in effect and that are expected to be in effect in the near future (including the European Union’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive and other new reporting requirements established by regulators in the U.S. and Europe), or additional new such laws and regulations that may be adopted (including due to ongoing concerns regarding global climate change and its impact). Costs associated with compliance, or the failure to comply, with such laws and regulations, or customer requirements relating to or stemming from such regulations, could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The impacts of climate change, regulations related to climate change and various stakeholders’ emphasis on climate change and other related matters may adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The impacts of climate change continue to raise significant concern and attention worldwide, which has led to swift and stringent legislative and regulatory efforts to limit greenhouse gas emissions in certain jurisdictions in which we operate. Our manufacturing plants use energy, including electricity and natural gas, and certain of our plants that emit greenhouse gas may in the future be affected by these legislative and regulatory efforts. Greenhouse gas emissions regulations could increase the price of the electricity we purchase, increase costs for use of natural gas, potentially restrict access to or the use of natural gas, require us to purchase allowances to offset our own emissions or result in an overall increase in costs of raw materials, any one of which could increase our costs, reduce competitiveness in a global economy, impact our reputation, or otherwise negatively affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Many of our customers and suppliers face similar risks. Supply disruptions relating to such regulations could result in increased costs, jeopardize the continuity of production, and have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. The physical and transitional impacts of climate change could also disrupt our operations, including by impacting the availability and cost of materials within our supply chain, and could also increase insurance and other operating costs. These factors may also impact our decisions to construct new facilities in certain geographic locations.
From time to time, we establish strategies and expectations related to the impacts of climate change and other environmental matters. Our ability to achieve any such strategies or expectations is subject to numerous factors and conditions, many of which are outside of our control. Examples of such factors include, but are not limited to, evolving legal, regulatory and other standards, processes, and assumptions, the pace of scientific and technological developments, increased costs, the availability of requisite financing, the availability of renewable energy sources, changes in carbon markets, government incentives and tax credits, and changes in general economic, financial and industry conditions. Failures or delays (whether actual or perceived) in achieving our strategies or expectations related to climate change and other environmental matters could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations, harm our reputation, result in our inability to meet the expectations of our customers and other stakeholders, and increase the risk of litigation. Likewise, a failure to comply with any current or future climate, environmental and related reporting requirements, including those established by regulators in the U.S. and Europe, may result in loss of business, regulatory penalties, increased litigation risk and reputational damage.
Compliance with and changes in other laws and regulations impacting our operations could be costly and could affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We have internal policies and procedures and supplier policies and requirements relating to compliance with anti-corruption, sanctions, import and export control laws and exchange control laws, and we conduct periodic compliance training on such laws for our employees; however, there is a risk that such policies, procedures and requirements will not always protect us from the improper acts of employees, agents, suppliers, other business partners, joint venture partners, or representatives, particularly in the case of recently acquired operations that may not have significant training in applicable compliance policies and procedures. Compliance violations may result in criminal penalties, sanctions or fines that could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and reputation.
Changes that could impact the legal environment include new legislation, regulations, and policies, investigations and legal proceedings, and new interpretations of existing rules and regulations, in particular, changes in sanctions, import and export control laws or exchange control laws, and other changes in laws in countries where we operate or intend to operate.
We have liabilities related to product warranties, litigation and other claims.
We provide product warranties to our customers for some of our products. Under these product warranties, we may be required to bear costs and expenses for the repair or replacement of these products. As suppliers become more
19

Table of Contents
integrally involved in the design of vehicles and equipment and assume more of the assembly functions, OEMs are increasingly looking to their suppliers for contribution when faced with recalls and product warranty claims. A recall claim or product warranty claim brought against us could adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, a recall claim could require us to review our entire product portfolio to assess whether similar issues are present in other product lines, which could result in significant disruption to our business and could have an adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations. Factors outside our control, including the quality of fuel in end user markets or our products operating under conditions not originally contemplated, may increase our exposure for warranty or recall claims. In addition, as we continue to develop and invest in products and solutions involving alternative fuels (such as hydrogen, ammonia, ethanol, compressed natural gas and other zero- or lower-carbon fuel types) designed to enhance fuel efficiency and reduce emissions, we may experience an increase in fuel and product quality-related product warranty or other claims. We cannot assure that costs and expenses associated with these claims will not be material or that those costs will not exceed any amounts accrued for such claims in our financial statements.
In addition, we are currently, and may in the future become, subject to other commercial or contractual disputes and legal proceedings. These claims typically arise in the normal course of business and may include, but not be limited to, commercial or contractual disputes with our customers and suppliers, intellectual property matters, personal injury, product liability, environmental and employment claims. These claims may also arise under the Separation and Distribution Agreement we entered into with the Former Parent in connection with the Spin-Off, which allocated responsibility to us for various legacy matters, including certain items that are otherwise unrelated to our business. As previously disclosed, the Company and the Former Parent are currently involved in a dispute relating to the Tax Matters Agreement entered into by the parties in connection with the Spin-Off (the BorgWarner Dispute). For more information regarding the BorgWarner Dispute, refer to Note 18, “Contingencies,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
There is a possibility that any such claims may have an adverse impact on our business that is greater than we anticipate. While we maintain insurance that provides protection against certain potential losses relating to such claims and other risks, including those resulting from cybersecurity threats and incidents, the amount and extent of such insurance may not be adequate to insure us against all claims, costs and liabilities related to these matters. The incurring of significant liabilities for which there is no, or insufficient, insurance coverage could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Changes in tax laws or tax rates taken by taxing authorities and tax audits or similar processes could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Changes in tax laws or tax rates, the resolution of tax assessments or audits or similar processes by various tax authorities, and the inability to fully utilize our tax loss carryforwards and tax credits could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, we may periodically restructure our legal entity organization. If taxing authorities were to disagree with our tax positions in connection with any such restructurings, our effective tax rate could be materially affected.
Our tax filings for various periods are subject to audit by the tax authorities in most jurisdictions where we conduct business. We have received tax assessments from various taxing authorities and are currently at varying stages of appeals and/or litigation regarding these matters. These audits may result in assessment of additional taxes that are resolved with the authorities or through the courts. We believe these assessments may occasionally be based on erroneous and even arbitrary interpretations of local tax law. Although Mexico levies value added taxes and customs duties on temporary imports, in the course of the conduct of our manufacturing operations, we generally do not pay that tax due to a special certification, the availability of which depends upon our compliance with certain requirements and regulations, such as maintaining accurate records and providing periodic reports to authorities. We are aware of instances in which we may not have complied with those requirements and regulations and pursued voluntary processes with the relevant authorities to reconstruct records, which resulted in value added taxes being assessed for periods in which we claimed an ability to not make payments and/or in the imposition of penalties, either of which could be material. Any tax liability is ultimately a responsibility of the Former Parent under the Tax Matters Agreement to the extent it relates to any period prior to the distribution. To the extent we are unable to comply with those requirements and regulations after the distribution, any consequences would be our responsibility. Resolution of any tax matters involves uncertainties, and there are no assurances that the outcomes will be favorable.

Risks Related to Credit and Our Financials
Goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets and long-lived assets, which are subject to periodic impairment evaluations, represent a significant portion of our total assets. An impairment charge on these assets could have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We have recorded goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets related to acquisitions. We periodically assess these assets, along with long-lived assets, to determine if they are impaired. Significant negative industry or macroeconomic trends, disruptions to our business, inability to effectively integrate acquired businesses, unexpected significant changes or planned changes in use of the assets, dispositions, and market capitalization declines may impair these assets.
We review goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets and long-lived assets for impairment either annually or whenever changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. In conducting our goodwill impairment analysis, we compare the fair value of the segment to the related net book value. In conducting our impairment analysis of indefinite-lived intangible assets and long-lived assets, we compare the fair value of the assets to the related net book values if indicators of impairment are identified. The risk of impairment to goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets is higher during the early years following an acquisition. This is because the fair values of these assets align very closely with what was paid to acquire the reporting units to which these assets are assigned. As a result, the difference between the carrying value of the reporting unit and its fair value (typically referred to as “headroom”) is smaller at the time of acquisition. Until this headroom grows over time, due to business growth or lower carrying value of the reporting unit, a relatively small decrease in reporting unit fair value can trigger impairment charges. When impairment charges are triggered, they tend to be material due to the size of the assets involved. Future acquisitions could present similar risks. Any charges relating to such impairments could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations in the periods recognized.
Changes in interest rates and asset returns could increase our pension funding obligations, which could reduce our profitability and cash flow and adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.
In connection with the Spin-Off, the Former Parent transferred to us plan assets and obligations primarily associated with our active, retired, and other of the Former Parent’s former employees in certain jurisdictions, and we will provide the benefits directly from the plan assets. The actual assumed net benefit plan obligations and related expenses could change significantly from our estimates. In particular, the valuation of our future payment obligations under these pension plans and the related plan assets is subject to significant adverse changes if the credit and capital markets cause interest rates and projected rates of return to decline. Such declines could also require us to make significant additional contributions to our pension plans in the future. Additionally, a material deterioration in the funded status of the plans could significantly increase our pension expenses and reduce profitability in the future. Each of the foregoing risks could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. For more information about our pension assets and liabilities, refer to Note 15, “Retirement Benefit Plans,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
We are subject to a number of restrictive covenants and requirements under our indebtedness, which could limit our financial and operating flexibility and subject us to other risks.
The agreements governing our current indebtedness include, and any debt we incur in the future may include, covenants limiting our ability to, among other things, pay cash dividends, redeem or repurchase stock, incur debt or liens, enter into transactions with affiliates, merge, dissolve, repay subordinated indebtedness, make investments and dispose of assets. We are also subject to total net leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio financial covenants under such agreements. In addition, our current debt agreements require, and any future debt may require, us to dedicate a significant portion of our cash flows from operations to paying amounts due under such agreements, thereby reducing funds available for other corporate purposes. Any of these restrictions on our ability to operate could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations by, among other things, limiting our ability to adapt to changing economic, financial or industry conditions and to take advantage of corporate opportunities. Developments in our business or events beyond our control, including prevailing economic, financial, and industry conditions, could affect our ability to comply with the covenants and other requirements under our debt agreements. If we fail to comply with any covenants or other requirements, our lenders and bondholders may, among other things, terminate their obligation to make advances to us and declare any outstanding obligations immediately due and payable, as applicable, which could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Risks Related to the Spin-Off
We may be unable to achieve some or all of the benefits that we expect to achieve from the Spin-Off.
We may be unable to achieve the full strategic and financial benefits expected to result from the separation and distribution, or such benefits may be delayed or not occur at all. The Spin-Off was expected to provide various benefits, including allowing us to more effectively focus on our own distinct operating priorities and strategies, enhance our ability to better address specific market dynamics and target innovation, create incentives for our management and employees that align more closely with our business performance and the interests of our stockholders, and articulate a clear investment proposition and tailored capital allocation policy to attract a long-term investor base best suited to our business needs. While we have achieved some of these benefits, we may be unable to achieve other benefits in the time we expect, if at all, for a variety of reasons.
To preserve the tax-free nature of the Spin-Off and certain related transactions, we agreed in the Tax Matters Agreement to covenants and indemnification obligations that address compliance with the intended tax-free treatment of the Spin-Off and certain related transactions for U.S. federal income tax purposes as well as for state, local and foreign tax purposes. These covenants include certain restrictions on our activity for a period of two years following the Spin-Off. Specifically, we are subject to certain restrictions on our ability to enter into acquisition, merger, liquidation, sale and stock redemption transactions with respect to our stock or assets, and we may be required to indemnify the Former Parent against any resulting tax liabilities even if we do not participate in or otherwise facilitate the acquisition. Furthermore, we are subject to specific restrictions on discontinuing the active conduct of our trade or business, the issuance or sale of stock or other securities (including securities convertible into our stock but excluding certain compensatory arrangements), and sales of assets outside the ordinary course of business. These covenants and indemnification obligations may limit our ability to pursue strategic transactions or engage in new businesses or other transactions that may maximize the value of our business, and they may discourage or delay a strategic transaction that our stockholders may consider favorable.
If the Spin-Off were determined not to qualify as tax-free for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we could have an indemnification obligation to the Former Parent, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Spin-Off was intended to qualify as a tax-free “reorganization” within the meaning of Sections 368(a)(1)(D) and 355 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (Code). In connection with the Spin-Off, the Former Parent received a written opinion from Ernst & Young, LLP to such effect. However, the opinion of Ernst & Young, LLP will not be binding on the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) or the courts, and there can be no assurance that the IRS or a court will not take a contrary position. Notwithstanding the opinion of Ernst & Young, LLP, the IRS could determine on audit that the Spin-Off or any of certain related transactions is taxable if it determines that any of these facts, assumptions, representations, or undertakings are not correct or have been violated or if it disagrees with the conclusions in the opinion. If the conclusions expressed in the opinion of Ernst & Young, LLP are challenged by the IRS and the IRS prevails in such challenge, the tax consequences of the Spin-Off could be materially less favorable.
If, as a result of any of our representations being untrue or our covenants being breached, the Spin-Off were determined not to qualify for its intended tax-free treatment, we could be required by the Tax Matters Agreement to indemnify the Former Parent for the resulting taxes and related expenses. Those amounts could be material. Any such indemnification obligation could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We or the Former Parent may fail to perform under, or additional disputes may arise between the parties relating to, various transaction agreements that have been executed in connection with the separation.
In connection with the separation, and prior to the distribution, we and the Former Parent entered into various transaction agreements related to the Spin-Off, pursuant to which both we and the Former Parent have liabilities and performance obligations. Certain of these agreements continue to govern our relationship with the Former Parent following the Spin-Off. We rely on the Former Parent to satisfy its performance obligations under these agreements. If we or the Former Parent are unable to satisfy our or its respective obligations under these agreements, including indemnification obligations, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
As previously disclosed, in September 2024, the Former Parent filed a claim against the Company in Delaware Superior Court seeking, inter alia, a judicial declaration that the Company is obligated under the Tax Matters Agreement to remit to the Former Parent monies refunded, or to be refunded, to the Company from tax authorities that relate to certain indirect tax payments made prior to the Spin-Off. The Company believes it has meritorious arguments in response to the Former Parent’s claim, has filed counterclaims against the Former Parent, and will
23

Table of Contents
continue to vigorously defend against this litigation. The resolution of this matter could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. If any additional disputes were to arise between the parties, such disputes could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. For more information regarding the BorgWarner Dispute, refer to Note 18, “Contingencies,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
We have only operated as an independent, publicly traded company since July 3, 2023, and our historical combined financial information is not necessarily representative of the results we would have achieved as an independent, publicly traded company and may not be a reliable indicator of our future results.
We derived the historical financial information prior to July 3, 2023 included in this Form 10-K from the Former Parent’s consolidated financial statements, and this information does not necessarily reflect the results of operations and financial position we would have achieved as an independent, publicly traded company during the periods presented, or those that we will achieve in the future. This is primarily because of the following factors:
Prior to the Spin-Off, we operated as part of the Former Parent, and the Former Parent performed various corporate functions for us. Our historical combined financial information reflects allocations of corporate expenses from the Former Parent for these functions. These allocations may not reflect the costs we have incurred, and will continue to incur in the future, for similar services as an independent, publicly traded company.
We entered into transactions with the Former Parent that did not exist prior to the Spin-Off, such as the Former Parent’s provision of transition and other services, and undertook indemnification obligations, which caused us to incur new costs.
Our historical combined financial information does not reflect changes that we expected to experience, and have experienced, as a result of our separation from the Former Parent, including changes in the financing, cash management, operations, cost structure, and employee needs of our business. In addition, our historical combined financial statements do not include an allocation of interest expense comparable to the interest expense we incurred as a result of the Spin-Off, including interest expense in connection with our incurrence of indebtedness relating to the Spin-Off.
Following the Spin-Off, we have also faced additional costs and demands on management’s time associated with being an independent, publicly traded company, including costs and demands related to investor and public relations, public financial reporting and corporate governance, including board of director fees and expenses. For additional information about our past financial performance and the basis of presentation of our historical combined financial statements, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and our historical financial statements and the notes thereto.

Item 1C. Cybersecurity
Risk Management and Strategy
As part of our overall risk management system and processes, we assess, identify and manage material risks from cybersecurity threats through our Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) program. For a description of cybersecurity risks relevant to our business, see Item 1A, “Risk Factors.”
The Company generally approaches cybersecurity threats through a cross-functional, multilayered approach, with the goals of: (i) identifying, preventing and mitigating cybersecurity threats to the Company; (ii) preserving the confidentiality, security and availability of the information we collect and store for use in operating our business; (iii) protecting the Company’s intellectual property; (iv) maintaining the confidence of our customers, suppliers, other business partners and employees; and (v) providing appropriate disclosure of cybersecurity risks and incidents when required. Our cybersecurity and data protection policies, processes and strategies are informed by regulatory and business requirements, our prior experience addressing cybersecurity attacks and incidents (including with our
24

Table of Contents
former affiliates) and industry practices, and are periodically adjusted based on the results of assessments conducted through our ERM practices, third-party audits and independent reviews, and other processes.
Consistent with the Company’s ERM practices, our cybersecurity policies, processes and layers of defense focus on the following areas:
Surveillance and Monitoring. The Company maintains 24/7 cybersecurity threat surveillance in conjunction with a managed security service that monitors system logs and network traffic for indicators of compromise and other suspicious activity, and conducts monthly external vulnerability assessments and annual penetration testing.
System Safeguards. The Company deploys system safeguards that are designed to protect the Company’s information systems from cybersecurity threats, including early detection and response antivirus tools, data leak prevention tools and systems, vulnerability scans of data centers, firewalls, anti-malware functionality and access controls, and programs to support remediation, replacement or isolation of systems that have reached, or are expected to reach, end of security life.
Third-Party Collaboration. The Company utilizes collaboration mechanisms established with public and private entities, including intelligence and enforcement agencies, industry groups, and third-party service providers, to identify, assess and respond to cybersecurity risks.
Third-Party Risk Management. The Company has processes in place for identifying and overseeing cybersecurity risks presented by third-party users of the Company’s systems, as well as third-party systems used by the Company.
Training. The Company requires personnel, including new hires, to complete training regarding cybersecurity threats, incident reporting procedures and acceptable use of our information systems.
Incident Response Planning. The Company has established and maintains a cybersecurity incident response plan that outlines an organized and timely approach for responding to and handling security incidents affecting the Company’s systems or data, including the intrusions or incidents involving data from a third party.
A key part of the Company’s strategy for managing risks from cybersecurity threats is the ongoing assessment and testing of the Company’s policies and processes through audits, assessments, tabletop exercises, threat modeling, vulnerability testing and other exercises focused on evaluating the effectiveness of our cybersecurity controls and oversight. Third-party audits and independent reviews of our cybersecurity measures, information security control environment and operating effectiveness are conducted on at least an annual basis.
As a global company, we have experienced cybersecurity attacks and incidents in the past, and we could in the future experience similar attacks. To date, we have not experienced a cybersecurity incident or attack, or any risk from cybersecurity threats, that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect the Company or our business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition.
Governance
The Board, in coordination with the Audit Committee, oversees the Company’s policies with respect to the assessment and management of risks from cybersecurity threats. The Board receives updates regarding cybersecurity risks primarily in connection with its oversight of the Company’s risk management practices. The Audit Committee receives updates regarding cybersecurity risks from the Company’s Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) and Chief Information Officer (CIO), including with respect to the assessment and management of such risks and recent developments, trends and the general threat environment, on at least a quarterly basis.
The Company’s cybersecurity team, which is led by our CISO, oversees the Company’s cybersecurity and data security operations, programs, policies and processes and their general effectiveness. The cybersecurity team, in coordination with other Incident Response Team members, works collaboratively across the Company to implement a program designed to protect the Company’s information systems from cybersecurity threats and to promptly respond to cybersecurity incidents. The Company’s Incident Response Team consists of our CISO and other senior leaders from the Company’s cybersecurity (composed of information security and technology operations), compliance, legal, financial reporting and other key business and corporate functions. The CISO and other Incident Response Team members monitor the prevention, detection, mitigation and remediation of cybersecurity incidents in accordance with the incident response plan. The team is also responsible for informing and coordinating with the Company’s Disclosure Committee in timely reporting such incidents, as appropriate and depending on the severity

of the incident, and facilitating updates to the Strategy Board (consisting of our CEO, Chief Financial Officer (CFO), General Counsel, CIO and other members of management), Audit Committee and Board regarding such incidents until addressed.
We have experienced leaders responsible for assessing and managing risks arising from cybersecurity threats. Our CISO reports to the CIO and has served in various roles in information technology and information security for over 29 years, including most recently leading the Information Security Office of BorgWarner Inc. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Physics. The Company’s CIO reports to our CEO and has served in various roles in information technology and information security for over 26 years, including CIO of Gentherm Incorporated immediately prior to joining the Company. Our CIO holds a Bachelor of Science in Business, with a concentration in Computer Information Systems, and an MBA in Finance and Strategic Management. He is also a Digital Directors Network (DDN) Boardroom Certified Qualified Technology Expert (QTE). In addition, the Company’s CEO, CFO and General Counsel each have experience overseeing the management of cybersecurity and other risks similar to those impacting the Company’s business.
Item 2.    Properties
As of December 31, 2024, the Company had 23 principal manufacturing, assembly and technical facilities worldwide, including our global headquarters and excluding unconsolidated joint venture and administrative offices. Our global headquarters is located in a leased facility in Auburn Hills, Michigan. In general, we believe our facilities to be suitable and adequate to meet our current and reasonably anticipated needs and do not anticipate difficulty in renewing existing leases as they expire or finding alternative facilities.
The Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates operate principal manufacturing, assembly and technical facilities in the following regions:

Of the 23 facilities, 15 are leased sites, four of which contain Company-owned building and infrastructure with land lease contracts. Compared to the prior year, one of the leased sites in Europe ceased operations in early November 2024, was no longer a principal facility leased by the Company at December 31, 2024 and, as a result, is excluded from the above facility totals.

Item 3.    Legal Proceedings
In the normal course of its business, the Company is involved in various commercial and legal claims, actions and complaints, both actual and potential. Proceedings that were previously disclosed may no longer be reported because, as a result of rulings in the case, settlements, changes in our business, or other developments, in our judgment, they are no longer material to the Company’s business, financial position or results of operations. See Note 18, “Contingencies,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for additional information. 
SEC regulations require disclosure of certain environmental matters when a governmental authority is a party to the proceedings and such proceedings involve potential monetary sanctions that the Company reasonably believes will exceed a specified threshold. Pursuant to these regulations, the Company uses a threshold of $1 million for purposes of determining whether disclosure of any such proceedings is required.

INTRODUCTION
PHINIA is a leader in the development, design and manufacture of integrated components and systems that are designed to optimize performance, increase efficiency and reduce emissions in combustion and hybrid propulsion for commercial vehicles and industrial applications (medium-duty and heavy-duty trucks, buses and other off-highway construction, marine, agricultural and industrial applications), light commercial vehicles (vans and trucks) and light passenger vehicles (passenger cars, mini-vans, cross-overs and sport-utility vehicles). We are a global supplier to most major OEMs seeking to meet and exceed increasingly stringent global regulatory requirements and satisfy consumer demands for an enhanced user experience. Additionally, we offer a wide range of OES solutions and remanufactured products as well as an expanded range of products for the independent (non-OEM) aftermarket.
Transition to Standalone Company
On December 6, 2022, BorgWarner Inc., a manufacturer and supplier of automotive industry components and parts (BorgWarner, or Former Parent), announced plans for the complete legal and structural separation of its Fuel Systems and Aftermarket businesses by the spin-off of its wholly-owned subsidiary, PHINIA, which was formed on February 9, 2023 (the Spin-Off).
On July 3, 2023, BorgWarner completed the Spin-Off in a transaction intended to qualify as tax-free to BorgWarner’s stockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes, which was accomplished by the distribution of the outstanding common stock of PHINIA to holders of record of common stock of BorgWarner on a pro rata basis. Each holder of record of BorgWarner common stock received one share of PHINIA common stock for every five shares of BorgWarner common stock held on June 23, 2023, the record date. In lieu of fractional shares of PHINIA, BorgWarner stockholders received cash. As a result of these transactions, all of the assets, liabilities, and legal
28

Table of Contents
entities comprising BorgWarner’s Fuel Systems and Aftermarket businesses are now owned directly, or indirectly through its subsidiaries, by PHINIA. PHINIA is an independent public company trading under the symbol “PHIN” on the New York Stock Exchange.
Key Trends and Economic Factors
Commodities and Other Inflationary Impacts. Prices for commodities remain volatile, and since the beginning of 2021, the Company’s business has experienced price increases for base metals (e.g., steel, aluminum and copper) while slightly decreasing in 2024. In addition, many global economies are experiencing elevated levels of inflation more generally, which is driving an increase in other input costs. As a result, the Company has experienced, and is continuing to experience, higher costs.
Outlook
We expect earnings and cash generation in 2025 to be challenged as we expect foreign currency and a softening of the original equipment (OE) markets to outpace our ability to drive operational efficiencies and grow our Aftermarket sales. Continued economic and political uncertainty has caused the commercial vehicle (CV) and light vehicle (LV) markets to soften. LV volumes in our key markets for 2025 are expected to decline by mid-single digit percentages. CV volumes in our key markets are expected to rebound from 2024 levels in the low-single digit percentages, however weighted to the latter part of the year. Assuming constant foreign exchange rates, we expect flat to a modest increase in sales as strong growth in our Aftermarket segment is expected to offset the softened OE markets. Additionally, we may be impacted by other macroeconomic challenges in 2025, including but not limited to inflation, supply chain constraints, market volatility, higher tariffs relevant to our operations (particularly in Mexico and China) and changes in international trade relations.
The Company maintains a positive long-term outlook for its global business and is committed to new product development and strategic investments to enhance its product leadership strategy. There are several trends that are driving the Company’s long-term growth that management expects to continue, including market share expansion in the CV market, growth in overall vehicle parc that supports aftermarket demand, increased consumer interest in hybrid and plug-in vehicles, and adoption of additional product offerings enabling zero- and lower-carbon fuel solutions for combustion vehicles. In addition, we believe we are well positioned to continue to expand our differentiated offerings and capabilities across electronics, software and complete systems.
Relationship with BorgWarner
Historically, we have relied on BorgWarner to provide various corporate functions. Following the Spin-Off, BorgWarner has not provided us with assistance other than the limited transition and other services described under the heading “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions” in the Company’s proxy statement for its 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders filed on March 27, 2024. The Company entered into several agreements with BorgWarner that govern the relationship between the parties following the Spin-Off that are described in our Form 8-K filed on July 7, 2023. BorgWarner was only obligated to provide the transition services for limited periods following the completion of the Spin-Off. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had successfully exited all transition services agreements. We have installed and implemented information technology infrastructure to support certain of our business functions, including accounting and financial reporting, human resources, legal and compliance, communications, engineering, manufacturing and distribution, and sourcing.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
A detailed comparison of the Company’s 2023 operating results to its 2022 operating results can be found in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 28, 2024.

Net sales
Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2024 totaled $3,403 million, a decrease of $97 million, or 3%, from the year ended December 31, 2023. The change in net sales for the year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily driven by the following:
Unfavorable volume and net new business decreased sales by approximately $104 million or 3%. This decrease was primarily driven by lower commercial vehicle sales in Europe and lower sales in China within the Fuel Systems segment, partially offset by favorable volume in Europe within the Aftermarket segment.
Due to the contract manufacturing agreements with the Former Parent coming to an end, sales decreased $27 million. No additional sales from these agreements are expected.
Fluctuations in foreign currencies resulted in a year-over-year decrease in sales of approximately $1 million primarily due to the weakening of the Chinese Renminbi and Brazilian Real, offset by the strengthening of the British Pound, each relative to the U.S. Dollar.
Customer pricing increased net sales by approximately $35 million. This is primarily related to an increase in recoveries of inflationary costs from the Company’s customers due to non-contractual commercial negotiations with those customers and normal contractual customer commodity pass-through arrangements.
Cost of sales and gross profit
Cost of sales and cost of sales as a percentage of net sales were $2,647 million and 77.8%, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to $2,776 million and 79.3%, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2023. The change in cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily driven by the following:
Lower volume, mix and net new business decreased cost of sales by approximately $78 million. This decrease was primarily driven by lower commercial vehicle sales in Europe and lower sales in China in the Fuel Systems segment, partially offset by favorable volume in Europe within the Aftermarket segment.
Cost of sales was impacted by lower supplier costs of approximately $56 million arising primarily from supplier savings and recoveries.
30

Table of Contents
Cost of sales decreased $27 million related to certain contract manufacturing agreements with Former Parent that were entered into in connection with the Spin-Off.
Employee costs increased cost of sales by $27 million, primarily related to inflation and incentive compensation.
Fluctuations in foreign currencies resulted in a year-over-year decrease in cost of sales of approximately $2 million primarily due to the weakening of the Chinese Renminbi and Brazilian Real, offset by the strengthening of the British Pound, each relative to the U.S. Dollar.
Other manufacturing costs increased cost of sales by $7 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2023.
Gross profit and gross margin were $756 million and 22.2%, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to $724 million and 20.7%, respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase in gross margin was primarily due to the factors discussed above.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024 were $442 million as compared to $413 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales were 13.0% and 11.8% for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The change in SG&A expenses was primarily attributable to:
Employee-related costs were $163 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, an increase of $25 million, primarily due to inflation, incentive compensation, and increases in headcount associated with the transition to a standalone company.
Research and development (R&D) costs were $112 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, an increase of $4 million. R&D costs, net of customer reimbursements, were 3.3% of net sales in the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to 3.1% of net sales in the year ended December 31, 2023. The Company will continue to invest in R&D programs, which are necessary to support short- and long-term growth. The Company’s current long-term expectation for R&D spending is 3% of net sales.
Intangible amortization expense was $28 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
Other operating expense, net was $55 million and $70 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Other operating expense, net was comprised of the following:
For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, separation and transaction costs were $31 million and $80 million, respectively, primarily related to professional fees and other costs associated with the Spin-Off.
During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment expense of $21 million related to the write down of property, plant and equipment associated with a Fuel Systems manufacturing plant in Europe.
Restructuring expense was $14 million and $12 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, related to individually approved restructuring actions that primarily related to reductions in headcount. The Company continues to evaluate different options across its operations to reduce existing structural costs. As we continue to assess our performance and the needs of our business, additional restructuring could be required and may result in significant costs. Refer to Note 4 “Other operating expense (income), net” to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for more information.
For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized a gain of $7 million and a loss of $3 million, respectively, related to other one-time events, primarily due to insurance recoveries and associated losses related to a supplier fire.
For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recognized royalty income related to licensing of the Delphi Technologies trade name and product-related intellectual properties to other Former Parent businesses in the amount of $17 million. These royalty arrangements did not continue subsequent to the completion of the Spin-Off.

Table of Contents
For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recognized income related to application testing and other R&D services for other Former Parent businesses of $2 million. These services did not continue subsequent to the completion of the Spin-Off.
Equity in affiliates’ earnings, net of tax was $11 million and $10 million in the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. This line item is driven by the results of the Company’s unconsolidated joint venture.
Interest expense was $99 million and $56 million in the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase was primarily related to the issuance of debt in connection with the Spin-Off as well as the loss on extinguishment of debt of $22 million in 2024. See Note 12, “Notes Payable and Debt”, for further discussion of the loss on extinguishment of debt.
Interest income was $16 million and $13 million in the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase was primarily due to increased cash and cash equivalents balances, as well as higher interest rates on cash and cash equivalents balances.
Other postretirement expense was de minimus and $2 million in the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease in other postretirement expense for the year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily due to higher interest and inflationary costs in 2023.
Provision for income taxes was $108 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 resulting in an effective tax rate of 58%. This compared to $104 million or 50% for the year ended December 31, 2023.
In 2024, the Company recognized discrete tax expense of $21 million related to the establishment of a valuation allowance on its Polish operations as a result of the changes in judgment related to the recovery of its deferred tax assets. This expense was fully offset by a discrete tax benefit related to unremitted earnings as a result of change in structure and favorable provision to return adjustments in various jurisdictions.
In 2023, the Company recognized discrete tax benefits of $7 million, primarily due to certain unrecognized tax benefits and accrued interest related to a matter for which the statute of limitations had lapsed.

Adjusted earnings per diluted share
The Company defines adjusted net earnings per diluted share as net earnings per share adjusted to exclude the tax-effected impact of restructuring expense, separation and transaction costs, intangible asset amortization, impairment charges, other net expenses, and other gains, losses and tax amounts not reflective of the Company’s ongoing operations.

Results by Reportable Segment
The Company’s business is comprised of two reportable segments: Fuel Systems and Aftermarket.
Segment Adjusted Operating Income (AOI) is the measure of segment income or loss used by the Company. Segment AOI is comprised of segment operating income adjusted for restructuring, separation and transaction

Table of Contents
costs, intangible asset amortization expense, impairment charges and other items not reflective of ongoing operating income or loss. The Company believes Segment AOI is most reflective of the operational profitability or loss of its reportable segments.
Segment AOI excludes certain corporate costs, which primarily represent corporate expenses not directly attributable to the individual segments. Corporate expenses not allocated to Segment AOI were $92 million and $47 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in corporate expenses in 2024 is primarily related to additional costs resulting from operating as a standalone company.
The following table presents net sales and Segment AOI for the Company’s reportable segments:

The Fuel Systems segment’s net sales for the year ended December 31, 2024 decreased $157 million, or 7%, and Segment AOI increased $3 million, or 1.4%, from the year ended December 31, 2023. Foreign currencies resulted in a year-over-year decrease in sales of approximately $5 million primarily due to the weakening of the Chinese Renminbi and Brazilian Real, partially offset by the strengthening of the British Pound, each relative to the U.S. Dollar. The decrease excluding the impact of foreign currencies was primarily due to approximately $130 million of unfavorable volume and net new business driven by lower commercial vehicle sales in Europe and lower sales in China, $27 million related to the end of certain contract manufacturing agreements with BorgWarner, partially offset by approximately $5 million from non-contractual commercial negotiations with the Company’s customers and normal contractual customer commodity pass-through arrangements. Segment Adjusted Operating margin was 10.8% in the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to 9.9% in the year ended December 31, 2023. The Segment Adjusted Operating margin increase was primarily due to a lump sum supplier settlement.
The Aftermarket segment’s net sales for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased $60 million, or 5%, and Segment AOI increased $24 million, or 12.2%, from the year ended December 31, 2023. Foreign currencies resulted in a year-over-year increase in sales of approximately $4 million primarily due to the strengthening of the British Pound partially offset by the weakening of the Brazilian Real, each relative to the U.S. Dollar. The increase excluding the impact of foreign currencies was primarily due to approximately $30 million of pricing and $26 million of favorable volume and net new business driven by increased demand for the Company’s products, primarily in Europe. Segment Adjusted Operating margin was 15.9% in the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to 14.8% in the year ended December 31, 2023. The Segment Adjusted Operating margin increased primarily due to customer pricing.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Borrowing Facilities and Long-Term Debt
Credit Agreement
On July 3, 2023, the Company entered into a $1.225 billion Credit Agreement (as amended, the Credit Agreement) consisting of a $500 million revolving credit facility (the Revolving Facility), a $300 million Term Loan A Facility (the Term Loan A Facility) and a $425 million Term Loan B Facility (the Term Loan B Facility; together with the Revolving Facility and the Term Loan A Facility, collectively, the Facilities) in connection with the Spin-Off that occurred on the same date, maturing on July 3, 2028. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Facility, and availability of $499 million. The Term Loan B Facility was fully repaid in connection with the issuance of the 6.75% Senior Secured Notes due 2029 on April 4, 2024, as discussed below. The Term Loan A Facility was fully repaid in connection with the issuance of the 6.625% Senior Notes due 2032 on September 17, 2024, as discussed below.
Issuance of Senior Notes
On April 4, 2024, the Company issued $525 million aggregate principal amount of 6.75% Senior Secured Notes due 2029 (the 2029 Notes) pursuant to an indenture among the Company, as issuer, certain subsidiaries of the
33

Table of Contents
Company named as guarantors, and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee and as collateral agent. The 2029 Notes were sold to investors at 100% plus accrued interest, if any, from April 4, 2024 in a private transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The net proceeds of the offering of the 2029 Notes were used to repay all of the Company’s outstanding borrowings and accrued interest under the Term Loan B Facility and the Revolving Facility, and to pay fees and expenses in connection with the offering. During the second quarter of 2024, the Company recorded a non-cash pre-tax loss on extinguishment of $20 million related to the difference between the repayment amount and net carrying amount of the Term Loan B Facility, which is included in the Interest expense line item on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
On September 17, 2024, the Company issued $450 million aggregate principal amount of 6.625% Senior Notes due 2032 (the 2032 Notes) pursuant to an indenture among the Company, as issuer, certain subsidiaries of the Company named as guarantors, and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee. The 2032 Notes were sold to investors at 100% plus accrued interest, if any, from September 17, 2024 in a private transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The net proceeds of the offering of the 2032 Notes were used to repay all of the Company’s outstanding borrowings under the Term Loan A Facility, to pay fees and expenses in connection with the offering, and for general corporate purposes. During the third quarter of 2024, the Company recorded a non-cash pre-tax loss on extinguishment of $2 million related to the difference between the repayment amount and net carrying amount of the Term Loan A Facility, which is included in the Interest expense line item on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Refer to Note 12. “Notes Payable and Debt” for further information on the Credit Agreement, the 2029 Notes and the 2032 Notes.
Other Sources of Liquidity and Capital
We utilize certain arrangements with various financial institutions to sell eligible trade receivables from certain customers in North America and Europe. We may terminate any or all of these arrangements at any time subject to prior written notice. While we do not depend on these arrangements for our liquidity, if we elected to terminate these arrangements, there would be a one-time unfavorable timing impact on the collection of the outstanding receivables. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company sold $122 million of receivables under these arrangements.
As of December 31, 2024 the Company had cash and cash equivalent balance of $484 million, of which $409 million was held by our subsidiaries outside of the United States. We believe our existing cash and cash flows generated from operations and the revolving credit facility will be responsive to the needs of our current and planned operations for at least the next 12 months and the foreseeable future thereafter.
On February 1, 2024, May 9, 2024, August 1, 2024 and November 14, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors declared quarterly cash dividends of $0.25 per share of common stock. These dividends were paid on March 15, 2024, June 14, 2024, September 13, 2024 and December 13, 2024, respectively. On February 13, 2025, the Company announced that its Board of Directors declared an increased quarterly cash dividend of $0.27 per share of common stock, payable on March 14, 2025.
The Company has a credit rating of BB+ from Standard & Poor's and Ba1 from Moody's. The current outlook from both Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s is stable. None of the Company’s debt agreements require accelerated repayment in the event of a downgrade in credit ratings.
Cash Flows
Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $308 million and $250 million in the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared with the year ended December 31, 2023, was primarily due to improved working capital and higher net earnings adjusted for non-cash items.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $101 million and $150 million in the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As a percentage of sales, capital expenditures were 3.1% and 4.3% for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
34

Table of Contents
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities was $96 million during the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $20 million in the year ended December 31, 2023. Net cash used in financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily related to the repayment of Term Loan A and Term Loan B Facilities, stock repurchases, dividend payments to PHINIA stockholders, largely offset by the issuances of the 2029 Notes and 2032 Notes.
Contractual Obligations
The Company’s significant cash requirements for contractual obligations as of December 31, 2024, primarily consisted of the principal and interest payments on its notes payable and long-term debt, non-cancelable lease obligations, and capital spending obligations. The principal amount of revolving credit facility, notes payable and long-term debt was $1,001 million as of December 31, 2024. The projected interest payments over the terms of that debt were $399 million as of December 31, 2024. Refer to Note 12, “Notes Payable and Debt,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for more information.
As of December 31, 2024, non-cancelable lease obligations were $62 million. Refer to Note 19, “Leases and Commitments,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for more information. Capital spending obligations were $51 million as of December 31, 2024.
Management believes that the combination of cash from operations, cash balances, and available credit facilities will be sufficient to satisfy the Company’s cash needs for its current level of operations and its planned operations for the foreseeable future. Management will continue to balance the Company’s needs for organic growth, inorganic growth, debt reduction, cash conservation and return of cash to shareholders.
Pension and Other Postretirement Employee Benefits
The Company’s policy is to fund its defined benefit pension plans in accordance with applicable government regulations and to make additional contributions when appropriate. At December 31, 2024, all legal funding requirements had been met. The Company contributed $5 million to its defined benefit pension plans in each of the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
The Company expects to contribute a total of $5 million to $9 million into its defined benefit pension plans during 2025. Of the $5 million to $9 million in projected 2025 contributions, $2 million are contractually obligated, while any remaining payments would be discretionary.
The funded status of all pension plans was a net unfunded position of $113 million and $133 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease in the net unfunded position was a result of higher discount rates, partially offset by lower asset returns.
The Company believes it will be able to fund the requirements of these plans through cash generated from operations or other available sources of financing for the foreseeable future.
Refer to Note 15, “Retirement Benefit Plans,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for more information regarding costs and assumptions for employee retirement benefits.

OTHER MATTERS
Contingencies
In the normal course of business, the Company is party to various commercial and legal claims, actions and complaints, including matters involving warranty claims, intellectual property claims, governmental investigations and related proceedings, including relating to alleged or actual violations of vehicle emissions standards, general liability and various other risks.
It is not possible to predict with certainty whether or not the Company will ultimately be successful in any of these commercial and legal matters or, if not, what the impact might be. The Company records accruals for outstanding legal matters when it believes it is probable that a loss will be incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The Company evaluates, on a quarterly basis, developments in commercial and legal matters that could affect the amount of any accrual and developments that would make a loss contingency both probable and reasonably estimable. If a loss contingency is not both probable and reasonably estimable, the Company does not
35

Table of Contents
establish an accrued liability. Except as set forth below, the Company’s management does not expect that an adverse outcome in any of these commercial and legal claims, actions and complaints that are currently pending will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. An adverse outcome could, nonetheless, be material to the results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
BorgWarner Dispute
In September 2024, the Former Parent filed a claim against the Company in Delaware Superior Court seeking, inter alia, a judicial declaration that the Company is obligated under the Tax Matters Agreement to remit to the Former Parent monies refunded, or to be refunded, to the Company from tax authorities that relate to certain indirect tax payments made prior to the Spin-Off. In November 2024, the Company filed, in Delaware Superior Court, a response to the Former Parent’s claim and asserted a number of counterclaims and, in December 2024, the Former Parent filed a motion to dismiss the Company’s counterclaims. The Former Parent’s motion is pending. The Company believes it has meritorious arguments in response to the Former Parent’s claim and with respect to its own claims, however, the Company is unable to determine the ultimate outcome of this matter or determine an estimate of potential losses. It is reasonably possible, but not probable, that the resolution of this matter could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and/or cash flows.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). In preparing these financial statements, management has made its best estimates and judgments of certain amounts included in the financial statements, giving due consideration to materiality. Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Some of these policies require management's most difficult, subjective or complex judgments in the preparation of the financial statements and accompanying notes. Management makes estimates and assumptions about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain, relating to the reporting of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company’s most critical accounting policies are discussed below.
Impairment of long-lived assets, including definite-lived intangible assets The Company reviews the carrying value of its long-lived assets, whether held for use or disposal, including other amortizing intangible assets, when events and circumstances warrant such a review under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 360. In assessing long-lived assets for an impairment loss, assets are grouped with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. In assessing long-lived assets for impairment, management generally considers individual facilities to be the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent. A recoverability review is performed using the undiscounted cash flows if there is a triggering event. If the undiscounted cash flow test for recoverability identifies a possible impairment, management will perform a fair value analysis. Management determines fair value under ASC Topic 820 using the appropriate valuation technique of market, income or cost approach. If the carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired, an impairment charge is recorded for the amount by which the carrying value of the long-lived asset exceeds its fair value.
Management believes that the estimates of future cash flows and fair value assumptions are reasonable; however, changes in assumptions underlying these estimates could affect the valuations. Significant judgments and estimates used by management when evaluating long-lived assets for impairment include (1) an assessment as to whether an adverse event or circumstance has triggered the need for an impairment review; (2) undiscounted future cash flows generated by the asset; and (3) fair valuation of the asset. Events and conditions that could result in impairment in the value of long-lived assets include changes in the industries in which the Company operates, particularly the impact of a downturn in the global economy, as well as competition and advances in technology, adverse changes in the regulatory environment, or other factors leading to reduction in expected long-term sales or profitability.
Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets The Company’s goodwill is tested for impairment annually in the fourth quarter for all reporting units, and more frequently if events or circumstances warrant such a review. The Company first assesses qualitative factors, such as macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions, cost factors, relevant events and financial trends, that may impact a reporting unit's fair value. Using this qualitative assessment, the Company determines whether it is more-likely-than-not the reporting unit's fair value exceeds its carrying value. If it is determined that it is not more-likely-than-not the reporting unit's fair value exceeds the carrying value, or upon consideration of other factors, including recent acquisition, restructuring or disposal activity or to refresh the fair values, the Company performs a quantitative goodwill impairment analysis. In addition, the Company
36

Table of Contents
may test goodwill in between annual test dates if an event occurs or circumstances change that could more-likely-than-not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value.
The Company also has intangible assets related to acquired trade names that are classified as indefinite-lived when there are no foreseeable limits on the periods of time over which they are expected to contribute cash flows. Costs to renew or extend the term of acquired intangible assets are recognized as expenses are incurred.
Similar to goodwill, the Company can elect to perform the impairment test for indefinite-lived intangibles other than goodwill (trade names) using a qualitative analysis, considering similar factors as outlined in the goodwill discussion in order to determine if it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of the intangibles are less than the respective carrying values. If the Company elects to perform or is required to perform a quantitative analysis, the test consists of a comparison of the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset to the carrying value of the asset as of the impairment testing date. The Company estimates the fair value of indefinite-lived intangibles using the relief-from-royalty method, which it believes is an appropriate and widely used valuation technique for such assets. The fair value derived from the relief-from-royalty method is measured as the discounted cash flow savings realized from owning such trade names and not being required to pay a royalty for their use.
Refer to Note 10, “Goodwill and Other Intangibles,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for more information regarding goodwill.
Product warranties The Company provides warranties on some, but not all, of its products sold to OEMs. The warranty terms are typically from one to three years. Provisions for estimated expenses related to product warranty are made at the time products are sold. These estimates are established using historical information about the nature, frequency and average cost of warranty claim settlements as well as product manufacturing and industry developments and recoveries from third parties. Management actively studies trends of warranty claims and takes action to improve product quality and minimize warranty claims. Costs of product recalls, which may include the cost of the product being replaced as well as the customer’s cost of the recall, including labor to remove and replace the recalled part, are accrued as part of the Company’s warranty accrual at the time an obligation becomes probable and can be reasonably estimated. Management believes that the warranty accrual is appropriate; however, actual claims incurred could differ from the original estimates, requiring adjustments to the accrual:
Year Ended December 31,
(in millions)20242023
Net sales$3,403 $3,500 
Warranty provision$48 $41 
Warranty provision as a percentage of net sales1.4 %1.2 %
The sensitivity to a 25 basis-point change (as a percentage of net sales) in the assumed warranty trend on the Company’s accrued warranty liability was approximately $9 million.
At December 31, 2024, the total accrued warranty liability was $61 million. The accrual is represented as $36 million in Other current liabilities and $25 million in Other non-current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Refer to Note 11, “Product Warranty,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for more information regarding product warranties.
Pension The Company provides pension benefits to a number of its current and former employees. The Company’s defined benefit pension plans are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 715. The determination of the Company’s obligation and expense for its pension is dependent on certain assumptions used by actuaries in calculating such amounts. Certain assumptions, including the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets, discount rate and rates of increase in compensation are described in Note 15, “Retirement Benefit Plans,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-K. The effects of any modification to those assumptions, or actual results that differ from assumptions used, are either recognized immediately or amortized over future periods in accordance with GAAP.
The primary assumptions affecting the Company’s accounting for employee benefits under ASC Topic 715 as of December 31, 2024 are as follows:
Expected long-term rate of return on plan assets The expected long-term rate of return is used in the calculation of net periodic benefit cost. The required use of the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets may result in recognized returns that are greater or less than the actual returns on those plan assets in any
37

Table of Contents
given year. Over time, however, the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets is designed to approximate actual earned long-term returns. The expected long-term rate of return for pension assets has been determined based on various inputs, including historical returns for the different asset classes held by the Company’s trusts and its asset allocation, as well as inputs from internal and external sources regarding expected capital market return, inflation and other variables. The Company also considers the impact of active management of the plans’ invested assets. In determining its pension expense for the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company used long-term rates of return on plan assets ranging from 2.5% to 8.0%.
Actual returns on U.K. pension assets were (6.2)% and 2.4% for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, compared to the expected rate of return assumption of 5.25% and 5.5%, respectively, for the same years ended.
Discount rate The discount rate is used to calculate pension obligations. In determining the discount rate, the Company utilizes a full-yield approach in the estimation of service and interest components by applying the specific spot rates along the yield curve used in the determination of the benefit obligation to the relevant projected cash flows. For its significant plans, the Company used discount rates ranging from 1.7% to 22.3% to determine its pension obligations as of December 31, 2024, including weighted average discount rates of 5.9% (including 5.6% in the U.K.). The U.K. discount rate reflects the fact that the pension plan has been closed for new participants.
While the Company believes that these assumptions are appropriate, significant differences in actual experience or significant changes in these assumptions may materially affect the Company's pension and its future expense.
The sensitivity to a 25 basis-point change in the assumptions for expected return on assets related to 2025 pre-tax pension expense for Company sponsored pension plans is expected to be $2 million. The sensitivity to a 25 basis-point change in the assumptions for discount rate related to 2025 pre-tax pension expense for Company sponsored pension plans is expected to be negligible.
The following table illustrates the sensitivity to a change in the discount rate for Company sponsored pension plans on its pension obligations:

Refer to Note 15, “Retirement Benefit Plans,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for more information regarding the Company’s retirement benefit plans.
Income taxes The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance ASC Topic 740 (ASC 740). Income taxes as presented in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements have been allocated in a manner that is systematic, rational, and consistent with the broad principles of ASC 740. For periods ended on or prior to July 3, 2023, the Company’s operations have been included in the Former Parent’s U.S. federal consolidated tax return, certain foreign tax returns, and certain state tax returns. For the purposes of these financial statements, the Company’s income tax provision was computed as if the Company filed separate tax returns (i.e., as if the Company had not been included in the consolidated income tax return group with the Former Parent). The separate-return method applies ASC 740 to the Consolidated Financial Statements of each member of a consolidated tax group as if the group member were a separate taxpayer. As a result, actual tax transactions included in the consolidated financial statements of the Former Parent may not be included in these Consolidated Financial Statements. Further, the Company’s tax results as presented in the Consolidated Financial Statements may not be reflective of the results that the Company expects to generate in the future. Also, the tax treatment of certain items reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements may not be reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements and tax returns of the Former Parent. Items such as net operating losses, other deferred taxes, income taxes payable, liabilities for uncertain tax positions and valuation allowances may exist in the Consolidated Financial Statements that may or may not exist in the Former Parent’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
For periods subsequent to July 3, 2023, these items are reported based on tax filings and tax attributes of the Company’s legal entities. Indemnification assets and liabilities have been reported for amounts payable to or recoverable from the Former Parent under the Tax Matters Agreement for taxes associated with the period prior to the Spin-Off. The Tax Matters Agreement generally governs our and the Former Parent’s respective rights, responsibilities and obligations after the distribution with respect to taxes for any tax period ending on or before the
38

Table of Contents
distribution date, as well as tax periods beginning before and ending after the distribution date. Generally, the Former Parent is liable for all pre-distribution U.S. income taxes, foreign income taxes, certain non-income taxes attributable to our business, and liabilities for taxes that were incurred as a result of restructuring activities undertaken to effectuate the separation. The Company is generally liable for all other taxes attributable to its business.
In accordance with ASC 740, the Company’s income tax expense is calculated based on expected income and statutory tax rates in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates and requires the use of management’s estimates and judgments. Accounting for income taxes is complex, in part because the Company conducts business globally and, therefore, files income tax returns in numerous tax jurisdictions. Management judgment is required in determining the Company’s worldwide provision for income taxes and recording the related assets and liabilities, including accruals for unrecognized tax benefits and assessing the need for valuation allowances.
The determination of accruals for unrecognized tax benefits includes the application of complex tax laws in a multitude of jurisdictions across the Company’s global operations. Management judgment is required in determining the gross unrecognized tax benefits’ related liabilities. In the ordinary course of the Company’s business, there are many transactions and calculations where the ultimate tax determination is less than certain. Accruals for unrecognized tax benefits are established when, despite the belief that tax positions are supportable, there remain certain positions that do not meet the minimum probability threshold, which is a tax position that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority. The Company has certain U.S. state income tax returns and certain non-U.S. income tax returns that are currently under various stages of audit by applicable tax authorities. At December 31, 2024, the Company had a liability for tax positions the Company estimates are not more-likely-than-not to be sustained based on the technical merits, which is included in other non-current liabilities. Nonetheless, the amounts ultimately paid, if any, upon resolution of the issues raised by the taxing authorities may differ materially from the amounts accrued for each year.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
The Company records valuation allowances to reduce the carrying value of deferred tax assets to amounts that it expects are more-likely-than-not to be realized. The Company assesses existing deferred tax assets, net operating losses, and tax credits by jurisdiction and expectations of its ability to utilize these tax attributes through a review of past, current and estimated future taxable income and tax planning strategies.
Estimates of future taxable income, including income generated from prudent and feasible tax planning strategies resulting from actual or planned business and operational developments, could change in the near term, perhaps materially, which may require the Company to consider any potential impact to the assessment of the recoverability of the related deferred tax asset. Such potential impact could be material to the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations for an individual reporting period.
The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) has a framework to implement a global minimum corporate tax of 15% for companies with global revenues and profits above certain thresholds (referred to as Pillar 2), with certain aspects of Pillar 2 effective January 1, 2024 and other aspects effective January 1, 2025. While it is uncertain whether the U.S. will enact legislation to adopt Pillar 2, certain countries in which the Company operates have adopted legislation, and other countries are in the process of introducing legislation to implement Pillar 2. Pillar 2 does not have a material impact to the Company’s effective tax rate or consolidated results of operation, financial position or cash flows.

Item 7A.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Company’s primary market risks include fluctuations in interest rates and currency exchange rates. The Company is also affected by changes in the prices of commodities used or consumed in its manufacturing operations. Some of its commodity purchase price risk is covered by supply agreements with customers and suppliers. Other commodity purchase price risk is occasionally addressed by hedging strategies, which include forward contracts. The Company enters into derivative instruments only with high-credit-quality counterparties and diversifies its positions across such counterparties to reduce its exposure to credit losses. The Company does not engage in any derivative instruments for purposes other than hedging specific operating risks.
The Company has established policies and procedures to manage sensitivity to interest rate, currency exchange rate and commodity purchase price risk, which include monitoring the level of exposure to each market risk. For quantitative disclosures about market risk, refer to Note 14, “Financial Instruments,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for information with respect to currency exchange rate risk and commodity purchase price risk.
Currency Exchange Rate Risk
Currency exchange rate risk refers to the possibility that the Company may incur economic losses due to adverse changes in currency exchange rates. The Company operates globally and transacts in multiple currencies in addition to its reporting currency, the U.S. dollar. Although the Company generally uses the national or regional currency as the functional currency of its local entities, the Company has a significant amount of transactions in non-functional currency denominations including U.S. Dollar, Euro, Chinese Renminbi, Great British Pound and Mexico Peso. Foreign currency exposures are reviewed periodically, and any natural offsets are considered prior to entering into a derivative financial instrument. The Company mitigates its currency exchange rate risk by establishing local production facilities and related supply chain participants in the markets it serves, by invoicing customers in the same currency as the source of the products and by funding some of its investments in foreign markets through local currency loans.
In addition, the Company executed an intercompany loan designated as a net investment hedge to mitigate specific exchange rate translation risk. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company deferred a pre-tax loss of $11 million and $6 million, respectively, for the designated net investment hedge within the cumulative translation account within accumulated other comprehensive income, a component of total shareholders’ equity.
Currency translation adjustments, including the impact of the net investment hedges discussed above, during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, are shown in the following tables, which provide the percentage change in U.S. Dollars against the respective currencies and the approximate impacts of these changes recorded within other comprehensive income (loss) for the respective periods.

Commodity Price Risk
Commodity price risk is the possibility that the Company will incur economic losses due to adverse changes in the cost of raw materials used in the production of its products. The Company uses long-term contracts, cost sharing arrangements, design changes, customer buy programs, and limited financial instruments to help control costs wherever beneficial. Commodity forward and option contracts are occasionally executed to offset exposure to potential change in prices mainly for various non-ferrous metals and natural gas consumption used in the manufacturing of vehicle components. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had no outstanding commodity swap contracts.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of PHINIA Inc.
Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of PHINIA Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive (loss) income, of equity and of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO.
Basis for Opinions
The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable
43

Table of Contents
assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Goodwill Impairment Assessment - Fuel Systems Reporting Unit
As described in Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s net goodwill balance was $471 million as of December 31, 2024, and the net goodwill associated with the Fuel Systems reporting unit was $60 million. Management has determined that each of the reportable segments is also a reporting unit. Management tests goodwill for impairment annually in the fourth quarter for all reporting units, and more frequently if events or circumstances warrant such a review. Management performed quantitative testing during the fourth quarter of 2024. The estimated fair value was determined using a combined income and market approach. The primary assumptions affecting management’s quantitative impairment review are the discount rates, EBITDA margins, revenue growth rates, and market multiples.
The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the goodwill impairment assessment of the Fuel Systems reporting unit is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when developing the fair value estimate of the Fuel Systems reporting unit; (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures evaluating management’s significant assumptions related to EBITDA margins and market multiples; and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.
Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to management’s goodwill impairment assessments, including controls over the valuation of the Fuel Systems reporting unit. These procedures also included, among others (i) testing management’s process for developing the fair value estimate of the Fuel Systems reporting unit; (ii) evaluating the appropriateness of the income and market valuation approaches used by management; (iii) testing the completeness and accuracy of underlying data used in the income and market valuation approaches; and (iv) evaluating the reasonableness of the significant assumptions used by management related to EBITDA margins and market multiples. Evaluating management’s assumption related to EBITDA margins involved evaluating whether the assumption used by management was reasonable considering (i) the current and past performance of the Fuel Systems reporting unit; (ii) the consistency with external market and industry data; and (iii) whether the assumption was consistent with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit. Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge were used to assist in evaluating (i) the appropriateness of the income and market valuation approaches and (ii) the reasonableness of the market multiples assumption.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

INTRODUCTION
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements and notes present the consolidated statements of operations, balance sheets, and cash flows of PHINIA Inc. (PHINIA or the Company). PHINIA is a leader in the development, design and manufacture of integrated components and systems that are designed to optimize performance, increase efficiency and reduce emissions in combustion and hybrid propulsion for commercial vehicles and industrial applications (medium-duty and heavy-duty trucks, buses and other off-highway construction, marine, agricultural and industrial applications), light commercial vehicles (vans and trucks) and light passenger vehicles (passenger cars, mini-vans, cross-overs and sport-utility vehicles). The Company is a global supplier to most major original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) seeking to meet evolving and increasingly stringent global regulatory requirements and satisfy consumer demands for an enhanced user experience. Additionally, the Company offers a wide range of original equipment service (OES) solutions and remanufactured products as well as an expanded range of products for the independent (non-OEM) aftermarket.
Transition to Standalone Company
On December 6, 2022, BorgWarner Inc., a manufacturer and supplier of automotive industry components and parts (BorgWarner, or Former Parent), announced plans for the complete legal and structural separation of its Fuel Systems and Aftermarket businesses by the spin-off of its wholly-owned subsidiary, PHINIA, which was formed on February 9, 2023 (the Spin-Off).
On July 3, 2023, BorgWarner completed the Spin-Off in a transaction intended to qualify as tax-free to BorgWarner’s stockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes, which was accomplished by the distribution of the outstanding common stock of PHINIA to holders of record of common stock of BorgWarner on a pro rata basis. Each holder of record of BorgWarner common stock received one share of PHINIA common stock for every five shares of BorgWarner common stock held on June 23, 2023, the record date. In lieu of fractional shares of PHINIA, BorgWarner stockholders received cash. As a result of these transactions, all of the assets, liabilities, and legal entities comprising BorgWarner’s Fuel Systems and Aftermarket businesses are now owned directly, or indirectly through its subsidiaries, by PHINIA. PHINIA is an independent public company trading under the symbol “PHIN” on the New York Stock Exchange.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
NOTE 1     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following paragraphs briefly describe the Company’s significant accounting policies.
Basis of presentation Prior to the Spin-Off on July 3, 2023, the historical financial statements of PHINIA were prepared on a stand-alone combined basis and were derived from BorgWarner’s consolidated financial statements and accounting records as if the Fuel Systems and Aftermarket businesses of BorgWarner had been part of PHINIA for all periods presented. Accordingly, for periods prior to July 3, 2023, our financial statements are presented on a combined basis and for the periods subsequent to July 3, 2023 are presented on a consolidated basis (all periods hereinafter are referred to as “consolidated financial statements”). The Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and accompanying notes, as well as amounts of revenues and expenses reported during the periods covered by those financial statements and accompanying notes. The Consolidated Financial Statements may not be indicative of the Company’s future performance and do not necessarily reflect what the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows would have been had it operated as a standalone company during the periods presented prior to the Spin-Off.
The Consolidated Statements of Operations include all revenues and costs directly attributable to the Company, including costs for facilities, functions, and services utilized. Costs for certain centralized functions and programs provided and administered by BorgWarner were charged directly to the Company prior to Spin-Off. These centralized functions and programs included, but were not limited to research and development and information technology.
A portion of BorgWarner’s total corporate expenses were allocated to the Company for services rendered by BorgWarner prior to the Spin-Off. These expenses included the cost of corporate functions and resources, including, but not limited to, executive management, finance, accounting, legal, human resources, research and development and sales. Additionally, a portion of the Company’s corporate expenses were allocated to BorgWarner for charges incurred related to subsidiaries of BorgWarner historically supported by the Company, primarily related to information technology. These expenses were allocated based on direct usage when identifiable or, when not directly identifiable, on the basis of proportional net revenues, legal entities, headcount or weighted-square footage, as applicable. The Company considers the basis on which the expenses have been allocated to reasonably reflect the utilization of services provided to, or the benefit received by, both the Company and BorgWarner during the periods presented. However, the allocations may not reflect the expenses the Company would have incurred if the Company had been a standalone company for the periods presented prior to July 3, 2023. The year ended December 31, 2023 included net corporate allocation expenses incurred prior to the Spin-Off totaling $89 million. For the year ended December 31, 2022, net corporate allocation expenses totaled $118 million. Corporate allocation expenses were primarily included in Selling, general and administrative expenses.
Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the accompanying notes, as well as the amounts of revenues and expenses reported during the periods covered by these financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Principles of consolidation The Consolidated Financial Statements include all majority-owned subsidiaries with a controlling financial interest. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Joint venture and equity securities The Company has an investment in one unconsolidated joint venture: Delphi-TVS Diesel Systems Ltd (D-TVS), of which the Company owns 52.5%. This joint venture is a non-controlled affiliate in which the Company exercises significant influence but does not have a controlling financial interest and, therefore, is accounted for under the equity method. Although the Company is the majority owner, it does not have the ability to control significant decisions or management of the entity. The Company evaluated this investment under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 810 and based on the following factors the Company does
51

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
not have the power to control the significant decisions of the entity and therefore does not have a controlling financial interest.
Both partners appoint a managing director and these directors jointly manage all of the affairs of D-TVS, subject to supervision by the board of directors;
The Company has only a 36% representation on the board of directors; and
The construct of the board of directors prevents either party from having power/control as described in ASC Topic 810 because both parties lack the ability to directly and/or indirectly control governance and management of D-TVS through either its ownership interest or the board representation.
Generally, under the equity method, the Company’s original investment is recorded at cost and subsequently adjusted by the Company’s share of equity in income or losses. The carrying value of the Company’s investment was $51 million and $48 million as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company monitors its equity method investments for indicators of other-than-temporary declines in fair value on an ongoing basis. If such a decline has occurred, an impairment charge is recorded, which is measured as the difference between the carrying value and the estimated fair value. The Company’s investment in this non-controlled affiliate is included within Investments and long-term receivables in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company’s share of equity in income or losses is included in Equity in affiliates’ earnings, net of tax in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The Company also has certain investments for which it does not have the ability to exercise significant influence (generally when ownership interest is less than 20%). The Company’s investment in these equity securities is included within Investments and long-term receivables in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Interests in privately held companies that do not have readily determinable fair values are accounted for using the measurement alternative under ASC Topic 321, which includes monitoring on an ongoing basis for indicators of impairments or upward adjustments. These equity securities are measured at cost less impairments, adjusted for observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or similar investment of the same issuer. If the Company determines that an indicator of impairment or upward adjustment is present, an adjustment is recorded, which is measured as the difference between carrying value and estimated fair value. Estimated fair value is generally determined using an income approach on discounted cash flows or negotiated transaction values.
Revenue recognition Revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of a contract are satisfied, which generally occurs with the transfer of control of the products. For most products, transfer of control occurs upon shipment or delivery; however, a limited number of customer arrangements for highly customized products with no alternative use provide the Company with the right to payment during the production process. As a result, for these limited arrangements, revenue is recognized as goods are produced and control transfers to the customer using the input cost-to-cost method. Revenue is measured at the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring the goods. Although the Company may enter into long-term supply arrangements with its major customers, the prices and volumes are not fixed over the life of the arrangements, and a contract does not exist for purposes of applying ASC Topic 606 until volumes are contractually known.
Sales incentives and allowances (including returns) are recognized as a reduction to revenue at the time of the related sale. The Company estimates the allowances based on an analysis of historical experience. Taxes assessed by a governmental authority collected by the Company concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction are excluded from net sales. Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are included in sales, while costs of shipping and handling are included in cost of sales. The Company has elected to apply the accounting policy election available under ASC Topic 606 and accounts for shipping and handling activities as a fulfillment cost.
The Company has a limited number of arrangements with customers where the price paid by the customer is dependent on the volume of product purchased over the term of the arrangement. In other arrangements, the Company will provide a rebate to customers based on the volume of products purchased during the course of the arrangement. The Company estimates the volumes to be sold over the term of the arrangement and recognizes revenue based on the estimated amount of consideration to be received from these arrangements.

Refer to Note 2, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
Cost of sales The Company includes materials, direct labor and manufacturing overhead within cost of sales. Manufacturing overhead is comprised of indirect materials, indirect labor, factory operating costs, warranty costs and other such costs associated with manufacturing products for sale.
Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents are valued at fair market value. It is the Company's policy to classify all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less as cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are maintained with several financial institutions. Cash and cash equivalents are primarily held in foreign locations. Deposits held with banks may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. Generally, these deposits may be redeemed upon demand and are maintained with financial institutions of reputable credit and, therefore, bear minimal risk.
Receivables, net and long-term receivables Accounts receivable and long-term receivables are stated at cost less an allowance for credit losses. An allowance for credit losses is recorded for amounts that may become uncollectible in the future. The allowance for credit losses is an estimate based on expected losses, current economic and market conditions, and a review of the current status of each customer’s accounts receivable.
Sales of receivables are accounted for in accordance with the ASC Topic 860. Agreements which result in true sales of the transferred receivables, as defined in ASC Topic 860, which occur when receivables are transferred to a third party without recourse to the Company, are excluded from amounts reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Cash proceeds received from such sales are included in operating cash flows. The expenses associated with receivables factoring are recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations within interest expense. Refer to Note 6, “Receivables, Net,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
Inventories Inventory is measured using first-in, first-out (FIFO) or average-cost methods at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Refer to Note 7, “Inventories,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
Pre-production costs related to long-term supply arrangements Engineering, research and development and other design and development costs for products sold on long-term supply arrangements are expensed as incurred unless the Company has a contractual guarantee for reimbursement from the customer. Costs for molds, dies and other tools used to make products sold on long-term supply arrangements for which the Company has title to the assets are capitalized in property, plant and equipment and amortized to cost of sales over the shorter of the term of the arrangement or over the estimated useful lives of the assets, typically three to five years. Costs for molds, dies and other tools used to make products sold on long-term supply arrangements for which the Company has a contractual guarantee for lump sum reimbursement from the customer are capitalized in Prepayments and other current assets.
Property, plant and equipment, net Property, plant and equipment is valued at cost less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for maintenance, repairs and renewals of relatively minor items are generally charged to expense as incurred. Renewals of significant items are capitalized. Depreciation is generally computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Useful lives for buildings range from fifteen to forty years, and useful lives for machinery and equipment range from three to twelve years. For income tax purposes, accelerated methods of depreciation are generally used. Refer to Note 9, “Property, Plant and Equipment, Net,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
Impairment of long-lived assets, including definite-lived intangible assets The Company reviews the carrying value of its long-lived assets, whether held for use or disposal, including other amortizable intangible assets, when events and circumstances warrant such a review under ASC Topic 360. In assessing long-lived assets for an impairment loss, assets are grouped with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. In assessing long-lived assets for impairment, management generally considers individual facilities to be the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent. A recoverability review is performed using the undiscounted cash flows if there is a triggering event. If the undiscounted cash flow test for recoverability identifies a possible impairment, management will perform a fair value analysis. Management determines fair value under ASC Topic 820 using the appropriate
53

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
valuation technique of market, income or cost approach. If the carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired, an impairment charge is recorded for the amount by which the carrying value of the long-lived asset exceeds its fair value.
Management believes that the estimates of future cash flows and fair value assumptions are reasonable; however, changes in assumptions underlying these estimates could affect the valuations. Significant judgments and estimates used by management when evaluating long-lived assets for impairment include (1) an assessment as to whether an adverse event or circumstance has triggered the need for an impairment review; (2) undiscounted future cash flows generated by the asset; and (3) fair valuation of the asset.
Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets During the fourth quarter of each year, the Company qualitatively assesses its goodwill. This qualitative assessment evaluates various events and circumstances, such as macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions, cost factors, relevant events and financial trends, that may impact a reporting unit's fair value. Using this qualitative assessment, the Company determines whether it is more-likely-than-not the reporting unit's fair value exceeds its carrying value. If it is determined that it is not more-likely-than-not the reporting unit's fair value exceeds the carrying value, or upon consideration of other factors, including recent acquisition, restructuring or disposal activity or to refresh the fair values, the Company performs a quantitative goodwill impairment analysis. In addition, the Company also tests goodwill in between annual test dates if an event occurs or circumstances change that could more-likely-than-not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value.
The Company also has intangible assets related to acquired trade names that are classified as indefinite lived when there are no foreseeable limits on the periods of time over which they are expected to contribute cash flows. Costs to renew or extend the term of acquired intangible assets are recognized as expenses are incurred.
Similar to goodwill, the Company can elect to perform the impairment test for indefinite-lived intangibles other than goodwill (trade names) using a qualitative analysis, considering similar factors as outlined in the goodwill discussion in order to determine if it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of the intangibles are less than the respective carrying values. If the Company elects to perform or is required to perform a quantitative analysis, the test consists of a comparison of the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset to the carrying value of the asset as of the impairment testing date. The Company estimates the fair value of indefinite-lived intangibles using the relief-from-royalty method, which it believes is an appropriate and widely used valuation technique for such assets. The fair value derived from the relief-from-royalty method is measured as the discounted cash flow savings realized from owning such trade names and not being required to pay a royalty for their use.
Refer to Note 10, “Goodwill and Other Intangibles,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
Product warranties The Company provides warranties on some, but not all, of its products. The warranty terms are typically from one to three years. Provisions for estimated expenses related to product warranty are made at the time products are sold. These estimates are established using historical information about the nature, frequency and average cost of warranty claim settlements as well as product manufacturing and industry developments and recoveries from third parties. Management actively studies trends of warranty claims and takes action to improve product quality and minimize warranty claims. Costs of product recalls, which may include the cost of the product being replaced as well as the customer’s cost of the recall, including labor to remove and replace the recalled part, are accrued as part of the Company’s warranty accrual at the time an obligation becomes probable and can be reasonably estimated. Management believes that the warranty accrual is appropriate; however, in certain cases, initial customer claims exceed the amount accrued. Facts may become known related to these claims that may result in additional losses that could be material to the Company’s results of operations or cash flows. The product warranty accrual is allocated to current and non-current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Refer to Note 11, “Product Warranty,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
Other loss accruals and valuation allowances The Company has numerous other loss exposures, such as customer claims, workers’ compensation claims, litigation and recoverability of certain assets. Establishing loss accruals or valuation allowances for these matters requires the use of estimates and judgment in regard to the risk exposure and ultimate realization. The Company estimates losses using consistent and appropriate methods;

however, changes to its assumptions could materially affect the recorded accrued liabilities for loss or asset valuation allowances.
Environmental contingencies  The Company accounts for environmental costs in accordance with ASC Topic 450, “Contingencies.” Costs related to environmental assessments and remediation efforts at operating facilities are accrued when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of that liability can be reasonably estimated. Estimated costs are recorded at undiscounted amounts, based on experience and assessments and are regularly evaluated. The liabilities are recorded in Other current and Other non-current liabilities in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and are not material.
Refer to Note 18, “Contingencies,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
Government grants The Company periodically receives government grants representing assistance provided by a government. These government grants are generally received in cash and typically provide reimbursement related to acquisition of property and equipment, product development or local governmental economic relief. The government grants are generally amortized using a systematic and rational method over the life of the grant. As of December 31, 2023, the Company recorded government grant related liabilities of $1 million in Other current liabilities in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded $7 million and $6 million in Other non-current liabilities, respectively, in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded $28 million and $21 million of government grant-related credits in Selling, general and administrative expenses, respectively, and $2 million and $1 million in Cost of sales, respectively, in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Derivative financial instruments The Company recognizes that certain normal business transactions and foreign currency operations generate risk. Examples of risks include exposure to exchange rate risk related to transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency, changes in commodity costs and interest rates. It is the objective of the Company to assess the impact of these transaction risks and consider mitigating such risks through various methods, including financial derivatives. The majority of derivative instruments held by the Company are designated as hedges, have high correlation with the underlying exposure and are highly effective in offsetting underlying price movements. Accordingly, gains and losses from changes in qualifying hedge fair values are matched with the underlying transactions. Hedge instruments are generally reported gross, with no right to offset, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at their fair value based on quoted market prices for contracts with similar maturities. The Company does not engage in any derivative transactions for purposes other than hedging specific operational risks.
Refer to Note 14, “Financial Instruments,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
Foreign currency The financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are translated to U.S. Dollars using the period-end exchange rate for assets and liabilities and an average exchange rate for each period for revenues, expenses and capital expenditures. The local currency is the functional currency for substantially all of the Company's foreign subsidiaries. Translation adjustments for foreign subsidiaries are recorded as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income in equity. The Company recognizes transaction gains and losses arising from fluctuations in currency exchange rates on transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency in earnings as incurred.
Refer to Note 17, “Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
Pensions  The Company’s defined benefit pension plans are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 715. Disability early retirement benefits are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 712.
Pension costs and related liabilities and assets are dependent upon assumptions used in calculating such amounts. These assumptions include discount rates, expected returns on plan assets, health care cost trends, compensation and other factors. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, actual results that differ from the assumptions used are accumulated and amortized over future periods, and accordingly, generally affect recognized expense in future periods.

Refer to Note 15, “Retirement Benefit Plans,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
Restructuring Restructuring costs may occur when the Company takes action to exit or significantly curtail a part of its operations or implements a reorganization that affects the nature and focus of operations. A restructuring charge can consist of severance costs associated with reductions to the workforce, costs to terminate an operating lease or contract, professional fees and other costs incurred related to the implementation of restructuring activities.
The Company generally records costs associated with voluntary separations at the time of employee acceptance. Costs for involuntary separation programs are recorded when management has approved the plan for separation, the employees are identified and aware of the benefits they are entitled to and it is unlikely that the plan will change significantly. When a plan of separation requires approval by or consultation with the relevant labor organization or government, the costs are recorded upon agreement. Costs associated with benefits that are contingent on the employee continuing to provide service are accrued over the required service period.
Income taxes The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance ASC Topic 740 (ASC 740). Income taxes as presented in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements have been allocated in a manner that is systematic, rational, and consistent with the broad principles of ASC 740. Prior to Spin-Off, the Company’s operations have been included in the Former Parent’s U.S. federal consolidated tax return, certain foreign tax returns, and certain state tax returns. For the purposes of the 2022 financial statements, the Company’s income tax provision was computed as if the Company filed separate tax returns (i.e., as if the Company had not been included in the consolidated income tax return group with the Former Parent). The separate-return method applies ASC 740 to the Combined Financial Statements of each member of a consolidated tax group as if the group member were a separate taxpayer.
In accordance with ASC 740, the Company’s income tax expense is calculated based on expected income and statutory tax rates in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates and requires the use of management’s estimates and judgments. Accounting for income taxes is complex, in part because the Company conducts business globally and, therefore, files income tax returns in numerous tax jurisdictions. Management judgment is required in determining the Company’s worldwide provision for income taxes and recording the related assets and liabilities, including accruals for unrecognized tax benefits and assessing the need for valuation allowances.
The determination of accruals for unrecognized tax benefits includes the application of complex tax laws in a multitude of jurisdictions across the Company’s global operations. Management judgment is required in determining the gross unrecognized tax benefits’ related liabilities. In the ordinary course of the Company’s business, there are many transactions and calculations where the ultimate tax determination is less than certain. Accruals for unrecognized tax benefits are established when, despite the belief that tax positions are supportable, there remain certain positions that do not meet the minimum probability threshold, which is a tax position that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority.
The Company records valuation allowances to reduce the carrying value of deferred tax assets to amounts that it expects are more-likely-than-not to be realized. The Company assesses existing deferred tax assets, net operating losses, and tax credits by jurisdiction and expectations of its ability to utilize these tax attributes through a review of past, current and estimated future taxable income and tax planning strategies.
Refer to Note 5, “Income Taxes,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

NOTE 2    REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS
The Company manufactures and sells products and solutions, primarily to OEMs of commercial vehicle, industrial applications and light vehicles, to certain Tier One vehicle systems suppliers and into the aftermarket. The Company’s payment terms are based on customary business practices and vary by customer type and products offered. The Company has evaluated the terms of its arrangements and determined that they do not contain significant financing components.
In limited instances, certain customers have provided payments in advance of receiving related products, typically at the onset of an arrangement prior to the beginning of production. As of December 31, 2024, the balance of contract liabilities was $7 million, of which $3 million was reflected in Other current liabilities and $4 million was reflected as Other non-current liabilities. As of December 31, 2023, the balance of contract liabilities was $7 million, of which $6 million was reflected in Other current liabilities and $1 million was reflected as Other non-current liabilities. These amounts are reflected as revenue over the term of the arrangement (typically three to seven years) as the underlying products are shipped and represent the Company’s remaining performance obligations as of the end of the period.
The following table represents a disaggregation of revenue from contracts with customers by reportable segment and region for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022.

NOTE 3    RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS
The Company’s net Research & Development (R&D) costs are primarily included in Selling, general and administrative expenses of the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Customer reimbursements are netted against gross R&D costs as they are considered a recovery of cost. Customer reimbursements for prototypes are recorded net of prototype costs based on customer contracts, typically either when the prototype is shipped or when it is accepted by the customer. Customer reimbursements for engineering services are recorded when performance obligations are satisfied in accordance with the contract. Financial risks and rewards transfer upon shipment, acceptance of a prototype component by the customer or upon completion of the performance obligation as stated in the respective customer agreement. The Company has various customer arrangements relating to R&D activities that it performs at its various R&D locations.
The following table presents the Company’s gross and net costs on R&D activities:

The Company’s tax rate is affected by the tax laws and rates of the U.S. and other jurisdictions in which the Company operates, the relative amount of income earned by jurisdiction and the relative amount of losses or income for which no tax benefit or expense was recognized due to a valuation allowance.
The Company’s effective tax rate was impacted beneficially by certain entities in China with the High and New Technology Enterprise (HNTE) status. The income tax benefit for HNTE status was approximately $5 million, $6 million and $8 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. HNTE status is granted for three-year periods, and the Company seeks to renew such status on a regular basis.
In 2024, the Company recognized discrete tax expense of $21 million related to the establishment of a valuation allowance on its Polish operations as a result of the changes in judgment related to the recovery of its deferred tax assets. This expense was fully offset by a discrete tax benefit related to unremitted earnings as a result of change in structure and favorable provision to return adjustments in various jurisdictions.
In 2023, the Company recognized discrete tax benefits of $7 million, primarily due to certain unrecognized tax benefits and accrued interest related to a matter for which the statute of limitations had lapsed.
In 2022, the Company recognized a discrete tax benefit of $21 million related to an increase in its deferred tax assets as a result of an increase in the United Kingdom tax rate from 19% to 25%. This rate change was enacted in June 2021 and became effective April 2023.
The Company recognizes taxes due under the Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (GILTI) provision as a current period expense.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense and accrued approximately $6 million and $4 million for the payment of interest and penalties at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company recognized expense related to interest and penalties of $2 million and $1 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, and 2023, respectively.
As of December 31, 2024, approximately $15 million represents the amount that, if recognized, would affect the Company's effective income tax rate in future periods.
The Company estimates that it is reasonably possible there could be a decrease of approximately $9 million in unrecognized tax benefits and interest in the next 12 months related to the closure of an audit and the lapse in statute of limitations subsequent to the reporting period from certain taxing jurisdictions.
The Company and/or one of its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal, various state jurisdictions and various foreign jurisdictions. In certain tax jurisdictions, the Company may have more than one taxpayer. The PHINIA U.S. group filed its first U.S. federal return for the tax year 2023 in 2024; therefore, tax year 2023 is the only open period subject to Internal Revenue Service (IRS) audit.

As of December 31, 2024, certain non-U.S. operations had net operating loss carryforwards totaling $1.4 billion, available to offset future taxable income. These carryforwards are subject to expiration at various dates from 2026 through 2044. The Company has a valuation allowance against $1.4 billion of these non-U.S. net operating loss carryforwards.
The Company reviews the likelihood that the benefit of its deferred tax assets will be realized and, therefore, the need for valuation allowances on a quarterly basis. The Company assesses existing deferred tax assets, net operating loss carryforwards, and tax credit carryforwards by jurisdiction and expectations of its ability to utilize these tax attributes through a review of past, current, and estimated future taxable income and tax planning strategies. If, based upon the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recorded. Due to recent restructurings, the Company concluded that the weight of the negative evidence outweighs the positive evidence in certain foreign jurisdictions. As a result, the Company believes it is more-likely-than-not that the net deferred tax assets in certain foreign jurisdictions that include entities in Luxembourg, Poland, and the United Kingdom will not be realized in the future.

1 Reflects valuation allowances initially established as a result of a change in management’s judgment regarding the realizability of deferred tax assets.
2 Reflects movements in previously established valuation allowances, which increase or decrease as the related deferred tax assets increase or decrease. Such movements occur as a result of a change in management’s judgment regarding previously established valuation allowances, remeasurement due to a tax rate change and changes in the underlying attributes of the deferred tax assets, including expiration of the attribute and reversal of the temporary difference that gave rise to the deferred tax asset.
3 Reflects movements in previously established valuation allowances primarily recorded to equity as result of the Spin-off from the Former Parent in 2023.
4Reflects movements that have a disclosure-only impact as they are offset by corresponding movements in deferred tax assets.
As of December 31, 2024, the Company recorded deferred tax liabilities of $51 million with respect to foreign unremitted earnings. The Company did not provide deferred tax liabilities with respect to certain book versus tax basis differences not represented by undistributed earnings of approximately $392 million as of December 31, 2024, because the Company continues to assert indefinite reinvestment of these basis differences. These basis differences would become taxable upon the sale or liquidation of the foreign subsidiaries. Based on the Company's structure, it is impracticable to determine the unrecognized deferred tax liability on these earnings. Actual tax liability, if any, would be dependent on circumstances existing when a repatriation, sale, or liquidation occurs.

Factoring
The Company has arrangements with various financial institutions to sell eligible trade receivables from certain customers in North America and Europe. These arrangements can be terminated at any time subject to prior written notice. The receivables under these arrangements are sold without recourse to the Company and are, therefore, accounted for as true sales. During the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Company sold $122 million, $152 million and $142 million of receivables, respectively, under these arrangements. Additionally, during the same periods, expenses of $6 million, $9 million and $5 million, respectively, were recognized within interest expense.

NOTE 10    GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLES
The Company’s goodwill is tested for impairment annually in the fourth quarter for all reporting units, and more frequently if events or circumstances warrant such a review. The Company performed quantitative impairment testing during the fourth quarter of 2024. The estimated fair value was determined using a combined income and market approach. The market approach is based on market multiples (revenue and “EBITDA”, defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) and requires an estimate of appropriate multiples based on market data for comparable companies. The market valuation models and other financial ratios used by the Company require certain assumptions and estimates regarding the applicability of those models to the Company’s facts and circumstances.
The Company believes the assumptions and estimates used to determine the estimated fair value are reasonable. Different assumptions could materially affect the estimated fair value. The primary assumptions affecting the Company’s 2024 goodwill quantitative impairment review are as follows:
Discount rates: The Company used weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”) as the discount rates for future cash flows. The WACC is intended to represent a rate of return that would be expected by a market participant.
EBITDA margins: The Company used historical and expected EBITDA margins, which may vary based on the projections of the reporting unit being evaluated.
Revenue growth rates: The Company used a global automotive market industry growth rate forecast adjusted to estimate its own market participation for product lines.
Market multiples: The Company used appropriate multiples based on market data for comparable companies.
In addition to the above primary assumptions, the Company notes the following risks to volume and operating income assumptions that could have an impact on the discounted cash flow models:
The automotive industry is cyclical, and the Company’s results of operations could be adversely affected by industry downturns.
The automotive industry is evolving, and if the Company does not respond appropriately, its results of operations could be adversely affected.
The Company is dependent on market segments that use its key products and could be affected by decreasing demand in those segments.
The Company is subject to risks related to international operations.
The results of the impairment testing performed indicated that the estimated fair value of the Fuel Systems and Aftermarket reporting units exceeded their carrying values by considerable amounts. It was determined that the estimated fair value of each reporting unit exceeded its respective carrying value and as such, the Company’s goodwill was not considered impaired as of the fourth quarter of 2024.
Future changes in the judgments, assumptions and estimates from those used in acquisition-related valuations and goodwill impairment testing, including discount rates or future operating results and related cash flow projections, could result in significantly different estimates of the fair values in the future. An increase in discount rates, a reduction in projected cash flows or a combination of the two could lead to a reduction in the estimated fair values, which may result in impairment charges that could materially affect the Company’s financial statements in any given year.
A summary of the changes in the carrying amount of goodwill is presented in the following tables. The Company has determined that each of the reportable segments is also a reporting unit. Refer to Note 22, “Reportable Segments and Related Information” for more information.

NOTE 11    PRODUCT WARRANTY
The Company provides warranties on some, but not all, of its products. The warranty terms are typically from one to three years. Provisions for estimated expenses related to product warranty are made at the time products are sold. These estimates are established using historical information about the nature, frequency and average cost of warranty claim settlements as well as product manufacturing and industry developments and recoveries from third parties. Management actively studies trends of warranty claims and takes action to improve product quality and minimize warranty claims. Costs of product recalls, which may include the cost of the product being replaced as well as the customer’s cost of the recall, including labor to remove and replace the recalled part, are accrued as part of the Company’s warranty accrual at the time the Company believes it is probable that a loss will be incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. See Note 18, “Contingencies”, for further discussion on the Company’s quarterly process for accruals relating to commercial and legal matters. Management believes that the warranty accrual is appropriate; however, in certain cases, initial customer claims exceed the amount accrued. Facts may become known related to these claims that may result in additional losses that could be material to the Company’s results of operations or cash flows. The Company’s warranty provisions are primarily included in Cost of sales in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The product warranty accrual is allocated to current and non-current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Credit Agreement
On July 3, 2023, the Company entered into a $1.225 billion Credit Agreement (as amended, the Credit Agreement) consisting of a $500 million revolving credit facility (the Revolving Facility), a $300 million Term Loan A Facility (the Term Loan A Facility) and a $425 million Term Loan B Facility (the Term Loan B Facility; together with the Revolving Facility and the Term Loan A Facility, collectively, the Facilities) in connection with the Spin-Off that occurred on the same date, maturing on July 3, 2028. The Credit Agreement contains customary covenants relating to us and our subsidiaries concerning, among other things, investments, dispositions of assets, indebtedness, liens on assets, and dividends and other distributions. The Credit Agreement also contains financial covenants related to the total net leverage ratio as discussed below and the consolidated interest coverage ratio of the Company, determined as of the end of each fiscal quarter, to be at least 3.00 to 1.00. The Term Loan B Facility was fully repaid in connection with the issuance of the 6.75% Senior Secured Notes due 2029 on April 4, 2024, as discussed below. The Term Loan A Facility was fully repaid in connection with the issuance of the 6.625% Senior Notes due 2032 on September 17, 2024, as discussed below.
On April 4, 2024, the Company, as borrower, and certain subsidiaries of the Company, each acting as guarantors, entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Credit Agreement (the Credit Agreement Amendment No. 1). The Credit Agreement Amendment No. 1, among other things, modified certain covenants in the Credit Agreement to be more favorable to the Company, and increased the total net leverage ratio required to be satisfied under the Company’s financial covenant from 3.00:1.00 to 3.25:1.00 (subject to a step-up to 3.75:1.00 in connection with a qualifying acquisition for the fiscal quarter when such qualifying acquisition is consummated and the following three fiscal quarters).
On September 17, 2024, the Company, as borrower, and certain subsidiaries of the Company, each acting as guarantors, entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Credit Agreement (the Credit Agreement Amendment No. 2). The Credit Agreement Amendment No. 2, among other things, (i) reduced the applicable margin with respect to the loans under the Revolving Facility and (ii) modified certain covenants in the Credit Agreement.

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

The 2029 Notes and the guarantees are secured by a first-priority security interest in substantially all of the Company’s and the guarantors’ assets, subject to certain excluded assets, exceptions and permitted liens, which security interest ranks equally with the first-priority security interest securing the Facilities.
Senior Unsecured Notes due 2032
On September 17, 2024, the Company issued $450 million aggregate principal amount of 6.625% Senior Notes due 2032 (the 2032 Notes) pursuant to an indenture among the Company, as issuer, certain subsidiaries of the Company named as guarantors, and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee. The 2032 Notes were sold to investors at 100% plus accrued interest, if any, from September 17, 2024 in a private transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act). The net proceeds of the offering of the 2032 Notes were used to repay all of the Company’s outstanding borrowings under the Term Loan A Facility, to pay fees and expenses in connection with the offering, and for general corporate purposes. During the third quarter of 2024, the Company recorded a non-cash pre-tax loss on extinguishment of $2 million related to the difference between the repayment amount and net carrying amount of the Term Loan A Facility, which is included in the Interest expense line item on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

NOTE 14    FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company’s financial instruments may include long-term debt, interest rate and cross-currency swaps, commodity derivative contracts and foreign currency derivative contracts. All derivative contracts are placed with counterparties that have an S&P, or equivalent, investment grade credit rating at the time of the contracts’ placement. An adjustment for non-performance risk is considered in the estimate of fair value in derivative assets based on the counterparty credit default swap (CDS) rate. When the Company is in a net derivative liability position, the non-performance risk adjustment is based on its CDS rate. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had no derivative contracts that contained credit-risk-related contingent features.

The Company is exposed to certain market risks relating to our ongoing business operations, including foreign currency exchange rate risk, commodity price risk and interest rate risk. The Company, at times, may use certain financial instruments, primarily derivative contracts, to protect against these risks. Currently, the only risk the Company is managing through the use of financial instruments is foreign currency exchange rate risk related to forecasted cash flows, including capital expenditures, purchases, operating expenses or sales transactions, denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the operating unit, and the foreign currency risk exposure associated with our net investment in certain foreign operations.
As of December 31, 2024, the United States dollar equivalent notional values of outstanding currency derivative instruments used for foreign currency cash flow hedging was $85 million. These amounts were primarily related to Euro denominated forward contracts at British Pound functional currency locations. As of December 31, 2023, there were no outstanding currency derivative instruments. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, there were no significant derivative asset or liability balances recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as being payable to or receivable from counterparties under ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”.

In connection with the completion of the Spin-Off, the Company was required to assume additional defined benefit plan liabilities, along with the associated deferred costs in Accumulated other comprehensive loss.
The Company has a number of defined benefit pension plans covering eligible salaried and hourly employees and their dependents. The defined pension benefits provided are primarily based on (1) years of service and (2) average compensation or a monthly retirement benefit amount. The Company provides defined benefit pension plans in France, Germany, India, Japan, Mexico, Turkey, South Korea and the United Kingdom. Some of the Company’s defined benefit plans are frozen, and no additional service cost is being accrued, most notably the U.K. Pension Plan. The measurement date for all plans is December 31.

The Company’s investment strategy is to maintain actual asset weightings within a preset range of target allocations. The Company believes these ranges represent an appropriate risk profile for the planned benefit payments of the plans based on the timing of the estimated benefit payments. In each asset category, separate portfolios are maintained for additional diversification. Investment managers are retained in each asset category to manage each portfolio against its benchmark. Each investment manager has appropriate investment guidelines. In addition, the entire portfolio is evaluated against a relevant peer group. The defined benefit pension plans did not hold any Company securities as investments as of December 31, 2024 and 2023. A portion of pension assets is invested in common and commingled trusts.
The Company expects to contribute a total of $5 million to $9 million into its defined benefit pension plans during 2025. Of the $5 million to $9 million in projected 2025 contributions, $2 million are contractually obligated, while any remaining payments would be discretionary.

ASC Topic 820 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. Therefore, a fair value measurement should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair values as follows:
Level 1:Observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;
Level 2:Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3:Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are based on one or more of the following three valuation techniques noted in ASC Topic 820:
A.Market approach: Prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets, liabilities or a group of assets or liabilities, such as a business.
B.Cost approach: Amount that would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost).
C.Income approach: Techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount based upon market expectations (including present value techniques, option-pricing and excess earnings models).

The Company's approach to establishing the discount rate is based upon the market yields of high-quality corporate bonds, with appropriate consideration of each plan's defined benefit payment terms and duration of the liabilities. In determining the discount rate, the Company utilizes a full-yield approach in the estimation of service and interest components by applying the specific spot rates along the yield curve used in the determination of the benefit obligation to the relevant projected cash flows.
The Company determines its expected return on plan asset assumptions by evaluating estimates of future market returns and the plans’ asset allocation. The Company also considers the impact of active management of the plans’ invested assets.

NOTE 16    STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company has granted restricted common stock and restricted stock units (collectively, “restricted stock”) and performance stock units as long-term incentive awards to employees and non-employee directors under the PHINIA Inc. 2023 Stock Incentive Plan (2023 Plan). The Company’s Board of Directors adopted the 2023 Plan in July 2023. The 2023 Plan authorizes the issuance of a total of 4.7 million shares. Approximately 3.6 million shares were available for future issuance as of December 31, 2024.
The Former Parent granted restricted stock and performance stock units as long-term incentive awards to employees and non-employee directors under the BorgWarner Inc. 2018 Stock Incentive Plan (2018 Plan). The Former Parent’s Board of Directors adopted the 2018 Plan in February 2018, and the Former Parent stockholders

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
approved the 2018 Plan at the annual meeting of stockholders on April 25, 2018. As discussed further below, outstanding awards under the 2018 Plan were replaced with PHINIA equity awards.
Stock-based compensation expense within the consolidated financial statements for periods prior to the Spin-Off was allocated to PHINIA based on the awards and terms previously granted to PHINIA employees while part of BorgWarner and includes the cost of PHINIA employees who participated in the 2018 Plan, as well as an allocated portion of the cost of the Former Parent corporate employee awards.
In connection with the Spin-Off, outstanding equity awards to employees under the 2018 Plan were replaced with PHINIA equity awards using a formula designed to maintain the economic value of the awards immediately before and after the Spin-Off. Accordingly, the number of restricted stock underlying each unvested award outstanding as of the date of the Spin-Off was multiplied by a factor of 1.74, which resulted in no increase in the intrinsic value of awards outstanding. The replaced restricted stock awards continue to vest in accordance with their original vesting period. These replacement awards did not result in additional compensation expense to the Company.
Restricted Stock: The value of restricted stock is determined by the market value of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant. In 2024, PHINIA granted restricted stock in the amount of approximately 360 thousand shares and 20 thousand shares to employees and non-employee directors, respectively. The value of the awards is recognized as compensation expense ratably over the restriction periods, generally two or three years for employees and one year for non-employee directors. As of December 31, 2024, there was $16 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to restricted stock that will be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.7 years.
Restricted stock compensation expense recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations is as follows:

Performance stock units: The Company grants performance stock units to members of senior management that vest at the end of three-year periods based on the following metric:
Total Stockholder Return: This performance metric is based on the Company’s market performance in terms of total stockholder return relative to a peer group of automotive and industrial companies. Based on the Company’s relative ranking within the performance peer group, it is possible for none of the awards to vest or for a range of up to 200% of the target shares to vest.
The Company recognizes compensation expense relating to these performance stock units ratably over the performance period regardless of whether the market conditions are expected to be achieved. Compensation expense associated with these performance stock units are calculated using a lattice model (Monte Carlo simulation).
As of December 31, 2024, there was $6 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to total stockholder return units that will be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 2 years.

NOTE 18    CONTINGENCIES
In the normal course of business, the Company is party to various commercial and legal claims, actions and complaints, including matters involving warranty claims, intellectual property claims, governmental investigations and related proceedings, including relating to alleged or actual violations of vehicle emissions standards, general liability and various other risks.
It is not possible to predict with certainty whether or not the Company will ultimately be successful in any of these commercial and legal matters or, if not, what the impact might be. The Company records accruals for outstanding legal matters when it believes it is probable that a loss will be incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The Company evaluates, on a quarterly basis, developments in commercial and legal matters that could affect the amount of any accrual and developments that would make a loss contingency both probable and reasonably estimable. If a loss contingency is not both probable and reasonably estimable, the Company does not establish an accrued liability. Except as set forth below, the Company’s management does not expect that an adverse outcome in any of these commercial and legal claims, actions and complaints that are currently pending will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. An adverse outcome could, nonetheless, be material to the results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
BorgWarner Dispute
In September 2024, the Former Parent filed a claim against the Company in Delaware Superior Court seeking, inter alia, a judicial declaration that the Company is obligated under the Tax Matters Agreement to remit to the Former Parent monies refunded, or to be refunded, to the Company from tax authorities that relate to certain indirect tax payments made prior to the Spin-Off. In November 2024, the Company filed, in Delaware Superior Court, a response to the Former Parent’s claim and asserted a number of counterclaims and, in December 2024, the Former Parent filed a motion to dismiss the Company’s counterclaims. The Former Parent’s motion is pending. The Company believes it has meritorious arguments in response to the Former Parent’s claim and with respect to its own claims, however, the Company is unable to determine the ultimate outcome of this matter or determine an

estimate of potential losses. It is reasonably possible, but not probable, that the resolution of this matter could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and/or cash flows.
NOTE 19    LEASES AND COMMITMENTS
The Company’s lease agreements primarily consist of real estate property, such as manufacturing facilities, warehouses and office buildings, in addition to personal property, such as vehicles, manufacturing and information technology equipment. The Company determines whether a contract is or contains a lease at contract inception. The majority of the Company's lease arrangements are comprised of fixed payments, and a limited number of these arrangements include a variable payment component based on certain index fluctuations. As of December 31, 2024, a significant portion of the Company’s leases were classified as operating leases.
Generally, the Company’s operating leases have renewal options that extend the lease terms, and some include options to terminate the agreement or purchase the leased asset. The amortizable life of these assets is the lesser of its useful life or the lease term, including renewal periods reasonably assured of being exercised at lease inception.
All leases with an initial term of 12 months or less without an option to extend or purchase the underlying asset that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise (short-term leases) are not recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, and lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

In the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded operating lease expense of $20 million, $15 million and $18 million, respectively.
In the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the operating cash flows for operating leases were $20 million, $20 million and $21 million, respectively.
In the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded short-term lease costs of $5 million, $1 million and $4 million, respectively.
Finance lease costs were immaterial for the periods presented.
ASC Topic 842 requires that the rate implicit in the lease be used if readily determinable. Generally, implicit rates are not readily determinable in the Company’s agreements, so the incremental borrowing rate is used instead for such lease arrangements. The incremental borrowing rates are determined using rates specific to the term of the lease, economic environments where lease activity is concentrated, value of lease portfolio, and assuming full collateralization of the loans. The following table presents the terms and discount rates:

NOTE 20    EARNINGS PER SHARE
The Company presents both basic and diluted earnings per share of common stock (EPS) amounts. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net earnings by the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing net earnings by the weighted average shares of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during the reporting period.
For periods prior to July 3, 2023, the denominator for basic and diluted earnings per share was calculated using the 47.0 million PHINIA ordinary shares outstanding immediately following the Spin-Off. The same number of shares was used to calculate basic and diluted earnings per share in those periods since no PHINIA equity awards were outstanding prior to the Spin-Off.
86

Table of Contents
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
The dilutive impact of stock-based compensation is calculated using the treasury stock method. The treasury stock method assumes that the Company uses the assumed proceeds from the exercise of awards to repurchase common stock at the average market price during the period. The assumed proceeds under the treasury stock method include the purchase price that the grantee will pay in the future and compensation cost for future service that the Company has not yet recognized.

NOTE 21     RELATED PARTY
Pursuant to the Spin-Off, the Former Parent ceased to be a related party to PHINIA and accordingly, no related party transactions or balances have been reported subsequent to July 3, 2023. In connection with the Spin-Off, we entered into a number of agreements with the Former Parent to govern the Spin-Off and provide a framework for the relationship between the parties going forward, including a Transition Services Agreement, Tax Matters Agreement, and certain Contract Manufacturing Agreements.
The following discussion summarizes activity between the Company and the Former Parent that occurred prior to the completion of the Spin-Off.
Allocation of General Corporate and Other Expenses
The Consolidated Statements of Operations include expenses for certain centralized functions and other programs provided and administered by the Former Parent that were charged directly to the Company prior to the Spin-Off. In addition, for purposes of preparing the financial statements on a carve-out basis, a portion of the Former Parent’s total corporate expenses was allocated to the Company. Similarly, certain centralized expenses incurred by the Company prior to the Spin-Off on behalf of subsidiaries of the Former Parent had been allocated to the Former Parent. See Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” for a discussion of the methodology used to allocate corporate expenses for purposes of preparing these financial statements on a carve-out basis for periods prior to July 3, 2023.
Net corporate allocation expenses, primarily related to separation and transaction costs, in the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 totaled $89 million and $118 million, respectively. These expenses were primarily included in Selling, general and administrative expenses and Other operating expense (income), net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company’s business is comprised of two reportable segments, which are further described below. These segments are strategic business groups, which are managed separately as each represents a specific grouping of related automotive components and systems.
Fuel Systems. This segment provides advanced fuel injection systems, fuel delivery modules, canisters, sensors, electronic control modules and associated software. Our highly engineered fuel injection systems portfolio includes pumps, injectors, fuel rail assemblies, engine control modules, and complete systems, including software and calibration services, that reduce emissions and improve fuel economy for traditional and hybrid applications.
Aftermarket. Through this segment, the Company sells products to independent aftermarket customers and OES customers. Its product portfolio includes a wide range of products as well as maintenance, test equipment and vehicle diagnostics solutions. The Aftermarket segment also includes sales of starters and alternators to OEMs.
Segment Adjusted Operating Income (AOI) is the measure of segment income or loss used by the Company. Segment AOI is comprised of segment operating income adjusted for restructuring, separation and transaction costs, intangible asset amortization expense, impairment charges, other net expenses and other items not reflective of ongoing operating income or loss. The Company believes Segment AOI is most reflective of the operational profitability or loss of its reportable segments. Segment AOI excludes certain corporate costs, which primarily represent corporate expenses not directly attributable to the individual segments.
The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is the chief executive officer.
The CODM uses Segment AOI for the financial planning and review process. The CODM considers actual-to-

forecast and actual-to-actual variances on a quarterly basis for Segment AOI when making decisions about the allocation of operating and capital resources to each segment. The CODM also uses Segment AOI for evaluating pricing strategy and to assess the performance of each segment by comparing the results of each segment with one another and in determining the compensation of certain employees.
The following tables show segment revenues and significant expenses, Segment AOI, and segment information for the Company’s reportable segments:

Item 9A.    Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures 
A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all
93

Table of Contents                
control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. However, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives.
The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act, such as this Form 10-K, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are also designed to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As required under Exchange Act Rule 13a-15, the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2024, the end of the period covered by this Form 10-K report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of December 31, 2024.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Management conducted an assessment of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on the framework and criteria established by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in “Internal Control - Integrated Framework” (2013). Based on the assessment, management concluded that as of December 31, 2024, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective based on those criteria.
The effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024 has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which appears herein.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2024 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Item 9B.    Other Information
Trading Arrangements
During the year ended December 31, 2024, none of the individuals serving as the Company’s directors or “officers,” as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) of the Exchange Act, at that time adopted, modified, or terminated a “Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement” or a “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement,” as each term is defined in Item 408 of Regulation S-K.
Change of Control Arrangements
As of February 10, 2025, the Company entered into Amended and Restated Change of Control Employment Agreements (Amended Agreements) with each of its executive officers, including the Chief Executive Officer (CEO). Among other updates, the Amended Agreements (i) increase the CEO’s multiplier for cash severance benefits in the case of termination by the Company (other than for cause, death, or disability) or the CEO’s termination for good reason from two times the sum of annual base salary and target bonus to three times the sum of annual base salary and target bonus and (ii) for all executive officers, provide that in the case that the successor or purchaser in a change of control does not assume or issue replacement awards, the performance goals with respect to outstanding performance awards will be deemed to have been fully earned and achieved at projected actual performance levels (as determined by the Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion), the performance period will be deemed to have ended on the date of the change of control, and all other conditions will be deemed to have been satisfied.
