On June 30, 2024, our plant located in Sierre, Switzerland was impacted by exceptional flooding caused by unprecedented heavy rainfall. There were no injuries, as all employees were safely evacuated; however, water entered the plant premises and plant operations have been halted. As a result of this event, the Company recognized fixed asset charges of $30 million and inventory charges of $10 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024. As we continue to assess the physical condition of the plant's assets, we may incur additional losses in future periods. Additionally, we expect to incur costs related to repairs, clean-up, idle employees, and other costs related to this event until the operations are restored at the facility. The plant is insured for property damage and business interruption losses related to such events, subject to deductibles and policy limits. We will record an insurance receivable based on the anticipated insurance proceeds when the potential insurance proceeds can be reliably estimated.
