Note 21: Proposed Reverse Morris Trust Transaction

In January 2026, the Company and Gentherm Incorporated (“Gentherm”) announced that they had entered into definitive agreements whereby the Company will spin-off and simultaneously combine its Performance Technologies segment businesses with Gentherm in a Reverse Morris Trust transaction. Gentherm, a Michigan-based corporation, is a global leader of innovative thermal management and pneumatic comfort technologies. The transaction is intended to establish Gentherm as a scaled leader in thermal management. The Company will retain its Climate Solutions segment businesses, creating a pure-play climate solutions company focused on the data center and commercial HVAC and refrigeration markets.

Under the terms of the agreements, at the time of the spin-off of its Performance Technologies segment businesses, the Company’s shareholders will receive newly-issued Gentherm stock, representing ownership of approximately 40 percent of the combined company. In addition, immediately prior to transaction closing, the Company is to receive cash proceeds of $210.0 million, subject to adjustment. In total, the transaction value is approximately $1.0 billion. The Company anticipates this transaction will close by the end of calendar 2026, subject to approval by Gentherm’s shareholders and other closing conditions, including regulatory approvals. Under the Reverse Morris Trust structure, the transaction is intended to be generally tax-free for U.S. federal income tax purposes for the Company and its shareholders.
