Commitments and Contingencies Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Proceedings—We are subject to various lawsuits and claims including, but not limited to, matters involving contract disputes, environmental damages, personal injury and property damage. We vigorously defend ourselves and prosecute these matters as appropriate. We regularly assess the adequacy of legal accruals based on our professional judgment, experience and the information available regarding our cases.
The outcome of legal proceedings is inherently uncertain and we offer no assurances as to the outcome of any of these matters or their effect on the Company.
Based on consideration of all relevant facts and circumstances, we do not believe the ultimate outcome of any currently pending lawsuit against us will have a material adverse effect upon our operations, financial condition or the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Loss (recovery) due to misappropriation of assets, net—In the third quarter of 2024 we recognized a one-time pre-tax charge of approximately $59.2 million for the unrecovered fraudulently induced wire transfers. In addition, we incurred $1.5 million of professional fees in connection with our investigations. Together, the amount of $60.7 million is reported in Loss due to misappropriation of assets, net in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. We recognized $18.2 million of tax benefit related to Loss due to
misappropriation of assets, net.

In the third quarter of 2025, we recovered $7.3 million (€6.3 million). In 2025, we incurred $0.8 million of professional fees. This recovery, net of legal fee, is reported in Loss (recovery) due to misappropriation of assets, net in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
