NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(Dollars in millions, except per share amounts)

Note 1. Background and Basis of Presentation

Background

Garrett Motion Inc., (the “Company” or “Garrett”) designs, manufactures and sells highly engineered turbocharger and electric-boosting technologies for light and commercial vehicle original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and the global vehicle independent aftermarket, as well as automotive software solutions. These OEMs in turn ship to consumers globally. We are a global technology leader with significant expertise in delivering products across gasoline, diesel, natural gas and electric (hybrid and fuel cell) power trains. These products are key enablers for fuel economy and emission standards compliance.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable to interim financial statements. While these statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for fair presentation of the results of the interim period, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. The unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements should therefore be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2022 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 14, 2023 (our “2022 Form 10-K”). The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 should not necessarily be taken as indicative of the entire year. All amounts presented are in millions, except per share amounts.

We report our quarterly financial information using a calendar convention: the first, second and third quarters are consistently reported as ending on March 31, June 30 and September 30. It has been our practice to establish actual quarterly closing dates using a predetermined fiscal calendar, which requires our businesses to close their books on a Saturday to minimize the potentially disruptive effects of quarterly closing on our business processes. For differences in actual closing dates that are material to year-over-year comparisons of quarterly or year-to-date results, such differences have been adjusted for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Our actual closing date for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was October 1, 2022. There was no difference in actual closing date for the three months ended September 30, 2023.

We evaluate segment reporting in accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting. We concluded that Garrett operates in a single operating segment and a single reportable segment based on the operating results available and evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), which is our Chief Executive Officer, to make decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. The CODM makes operational performance assessments and resource allocation decisions on a consolidated basis, inclusive of all of the Company’s products across channels and geographies.

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases these estimates on assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from the original estimates, requiring adjustments to these balances in future periods.

Capital Structure Transformation Transaction

On April 12, 2023, the Company entered into the Transaction (as defined in Note 15 below) to increase the attractiveness of the Company to investors, including simplifying the Company’s capital stock by converting all outstanding Series A Preferred Stock into a single class of Common Stock, subject to certain conditions.

In the Transaction, the Company repurchased and aggregate of 69,707,719 shares of Series A Preferred Stock from the C&O Investors (as defined below), and converted all remaining outstanding 175,337,712 shares of Series A Preferred Stock into an equivalent number of shares of Common Stock. The total amounts paid to holders of Series A Preferred Stock in connection with the Transaction included aggregate cash payments of $605 million and the issuance of an

additional 25,577,517 shares of Common Stock in settlement of accumulated and unpaid preference dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock through June 30, 2023. The Transaction was financed through a new Term Loan B for an aggregate principal amount of $700 million under the framework of the Company's existing credit agreement. See Note 15, Series A Preferred Stock.

The Company recorded the following amounts in the Consolidated Interim Financial Statements related to the repurchase and conversion of its Series A Preferred Stock:

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accounting policies of the Company are set forth in Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 included in our 2022 Form 10-K.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-04, Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations (Topic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Purchase Obligations. The amendment in this update requires companies to disclose key terms of supplier financing programs used in connection with the purchase of goods and services, along with information about their obligations under these programs including a rollforward of those obligations. The Company adopted the new guidance as of January 1, 2023. See Note 10, Supplier Financing for disclosure related to the Company's supplier financing program obligations.

The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2023 is lower than the effective rate for the three months ended September 30, 2022 primarily related to an increase in global research and development benefits, lower taxes on non-U.S. earnings partially offset by nondeductible expenses, and a prior year non-recurring decrease in withholding taxes on undistributed earnings.

The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 is higher than the effective rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 primarily related to a prior year non-recurring decrease in withholding taxes on undistributed earnings and nondeductible expenses, partially offset by increase in global research and development benefit and lower taxes on non-U.S. earnings.

The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily related to a decrease in the annual effective tax rate driven by lower taxes on international operations, partially offset by nondeductible transaction costs.

The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily related to nondeductible expenses and tax reserves, partially offset by lower taxes on non-U.S. earnings and global research and development benefits.

Credit Facilities

On April 30, 2021, the Company entered into a credit agreement (as amended from time to time, the "Credit Agreement") providing for senior secured financing, consisting of a seven-year secured first-lien U.S. Dollar term loan facility initially in the amount of $715 million (the “2021 Dollar Term Facility”), a seven-year secured first-lien Euro term loan facility initially in the amount of €450 million (the “Euro Term Facility”) and a five-year senior secured first-lien revolving credit facility initially in the amount of $300 million providing for multi-currency revolving loans (the “Revolving Facility”). The maximum amount of borrowings available under the Revolving Facility was increased to $475 million in 2022.

On April 27, 2023, the Company entered into Amendment No. 3 (the "Third Amendment") to the Credit Agreement, which provided for additional financing consisting of a five-year secured first-lien U.S. Dollar term loan facility initially in the amount of $700 million (the “2023 Dollar Term Facility”, together with the 2021 Dollar Term Facility and Euro Term Facility, the "Term Loan Facilities", and together with the Revolving Facility, the "Credit Facilities"). The full amount of the 2023 Dollar Term Facility was drawn on June 6, 2023 (the "Closing Date"), and the proceeds were primarily used to finance the repurchases of the Series A Preferred Stock as part of the Transaction, and pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Third Amendment.

The 2023 Dollar Term Facility will mature on April 30, 2028. Prior to maturity, the 2023 Dollar Term Facility will be repaid quarterly in an amount equal to, during the first two years occurring after the Closing Date, 7.50% per annum of the aggregate principal amount, and thereafter, 10.00% per annum. The Term Borrowers may also prepay the 2023 Dollar Term Facility at any time in whole or in part without premium or penalty, subject to certain exceptions (including for (i) customary breakage and redeployment costs in the case of prepayment of term benchmark rate loans and (ii) 2023 Dollar Term Facility repricing events occurring during the period from the Closing Date to the date that is twelve months following the Closing Date).

The Third Amendment also provided for (i) an increase in the maximum borrowing amount under the Revolving Facility by $95 million (the “Incremental Revolving Commitment”) to an aggregate amount of $570 million; and (ii) an extension of the maturity date for the Revolving Facility by two years from April 30, 2026 to April 30, 2028 (or January 30, 2028 if any of the currently outstanding term loans or term loans under the 2023 Dollar Term Facility maturing as of April 30, 2028 remain outstanding as of such date). The Incremental Revolving Commitment has the same terms and is generally subject to the same conditions applicable to the existing revolving facility under the Credit Agreement, except for fees paid in connection with the arrangement of the increased amount.

Under the Revolving Facility, the Company may use up to $125 million for the issuance of letters of credit to its subsidiaries. Letters of credit are available for issuance under the Credit Agreement on terms and conditions customary for financings of this kind, which issuances reduce availability under the Revolving Facility. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had no loans outstanding under the Revolving Facility, no outstanding letters of credit, and available borrowing capacity of approximately $570 million.

Separate from the Revolving Facility, the Company has a bilateral letter of credit facility in the amount of $15 million, which matures on April 30, 2026. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had $12 million utilized and $3 million of remaining available capacity under such facility.

Minimum scheduled principal repayments of the Credit Facilities as of September 30, 2023 are as follow:


	September 30, 2023
	(Dollars in millions)
2023	$	2
2024	7
2025	7
2026	17
2027	77
Thereafter	1,567
Total debt payments	$	1,677

Interest Rate and Fees

The 2021 Dollar Term Facility is subject to an interest rate, at our option, of either (a) an alternate base rate (“ABR”) (which shall not be less than 1.50%) or (b) an adjusted SOFR rate (“SOFR”) (which shall not be less than 0.50%), in each case, plus an applicable margin equal to 3.51% in the case of SOFR loans and 2.25% in the case of ABR loans. The Euro Term Facility is subject to an interest rate equal to an adjusted EURIBOR rate (which shall not be less than zero) plus an applicable margin equal to 3.50%. Interest payments with respect to the 2021 Dollar and Euro Term Facilities are required either on a quarterly basis (for ABR loans) or at the end of each interest period (for SOFR and EURIBOR loans) or, if the duration of the applicable interest period exceeds three months, then every three months.

The 2023 Dollar Term Facility will bear interest, at the Term Borrowers’ election, at a rate per annum equal to (i) SOFR (subject to a 0.50% floor) plus the applicable margin or (ii) the base rate plus the applicable margin. The applicable margin for loans under the 2023 Dollar Term Facility is 4.50% for SOFR loans and 3.50% for base rate loans.

The Revolving Facility is subject to an interest rate comprised of an applicable benchmark rate as provided under the Credit Agreement (which shall not be less than 1.00% if such benchmark is the ABR rate and not less than 0.00% in the case of other applicable benchmark rates) that is selected based on the currency in which borrowings are outstanding thereunder, in each case, plus an applicable margin, that may vary based on our leverage ratio.

In addition to paying interest on outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Facility, we are also required to pay a quarterly commitment fee based on the average daily unused portion of the Revolving Facility during such quarter, which is determined by our leverage ratio and ranges from 0.25% to 0.50% per annum.

Prepayments

The Credit Agreement contains certain mandatory prepayment provisions in the event that we incur certain types of indebtedness, receive net cash proceeds from certain non-ordinary course asset sales or other dispositions of property, or have excess cash flow (calculated on an annual basis with the required prepayment equal to 50%, 25% or 0% of such excess cash flow, subject to compliance with certain leverage ratios), in each case subject to terms and conditions customary for financings of this kind.

On July 31, 2023, the Company made an early repayment in the amount of $200 million on the 2023 Dollar Term Facility. The early repayment resulted in incremental amortization on debt issuance cost in the amount of $9 million, included within Interest Expense in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Operations.

Certain Covenants

The Credit Agreement contains certain affirmative and negative covenants customary for financings of this type. The Revolving Facility also contains a financial covenant requiring the maintenance of a consolidated total leverage ratio of not greater than 4.7 times as of the end of each fiscal quarter if, on the last day of any such fiscal quarter, the aggregate amount of loans and letters of credit (excluding backstopped or cash collateralized letters of credit and other letters of credit with an aggregate face amount not exceeding $30 million) outstanding under the Revolving Facility exceeds 35% of the aggregate commitments in effect thereunder on such date. As of September 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all covenants.

Note 15. Series A Preferred Stock

On April 12, 2023 (the “Transaction Date”), the Company entered into separate definitive agreements (the “Agreements”) with each of Centerbridge Partners, L.P. and funds managed by Oaktree Capital Management, L.P. (collectively, the “C&O Investors”) to effect a series of integrated transactions (collectively the “Transaction”) designed to increase the attractiveness of the Company to investors, including by simplifying the Company’s capital structure by converting all outstanding Series A Preferred Stock into a single class of Common Stock, subject to certain conditions.

As part of the Agreements, the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock authorized and approved the amendment and restatement of the certificate of designations for the Series A Preferred Stock (as amended, the “Certificate of Designations”) to, among other things, require the conversion of all shares of Series A Preferred Stock into shares of the Company’s common stock (the “2023 Conversion”), subject to the repurchase by the Company of a portion of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by the C&O Investors (the “Series A Repurchase”).

Under the terms of the Agreements, the Company agreed to repurchase a total of $570 million (“Base Repurchase Price”) of shares of Series A Preferred Stock from the C&O Investors at a cash price of $8.10 per share which was subsequently adjusted to equal the volume-weighted average price of the Common Stock for the fifteen trading days following the announcement of the transactions (the “15 Days VWAP”), subject to a minimum price of $7.875 per share and a maximum price of $8.50 per share. The 15 Days VWAP was subsequently established at a value of $8.177 per share.

As part of the Transaction, all holders of Series A Preferred Stock, including the C&O Investors, received approximately 0.104379 shares of Common Stock, being an amount equal to $0.853509 per share of Series A Preferred Stock, valued at the 15 Days VWAP, representing accumulated and unpaid preference dividends on each share of Series A Preferred Stock through June 30, 2023 (the “Accumulated Dividends”), as well as $0.144375 per share of Series A Preferred Stock, representing the preference dividends that would have accrued on the Series A Preferred Stock through September 30, 2023 (the “Additional Amounts”).

As part of the Transaction, following the effectiveness of the Certificate of Designations which occurred on June 6, 2023, the Company completed all steps of the Transaction as follows:

•The Company paid $580 million to the C&O Investors in connection with the repurchase of 69,707,719 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, comprising of the Base Repurchase Price as well as $10 million ($0.144375 for each repurchased share) in consideration of the Additional Amounts on the repurchased shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

•The remaining 175,337,712 shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding following such repurchase were converted into 175,337,712 shares of Common Stock (in accordance with the customary procedures of the Company’s transfer agent, for shares held in registered form, and of the Depository Trust Company, for shares held in street name). Following the completion of the 2023 Conversion, trading of the Series A Preferred Stock on Nasdaq was suspended;

•As part of the 2023 Conversion, the Company also paid $25 million ($0.144375 for each converted share) to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock in consideration of the Additional Amounts on the shares of Series A Preferred Stock that were converted; and

•Issued 25,577,517 shares of Common Stock to all holders of Series A Preferred Stock (equal to $0.853509 per share, valued at the 15 Days VWAP, adjusted to avoid the issuance of fractional shares of Common Stock), in consideration of the Accumulated Dividends of an aggregate amount of $209 million. Cash payments for fractional shares were immaterial.

The Agreements were accounted for as freestanding physically settled forward purchase contracts. The Agreements were initially recorded at fair value and then remeasured through earnings until the establishment of the 15 Days VWAP, whereupon the Agreements were subsequently measured based on the amount of consideration to be paid at settlement. A Monte-Carlo simulation model was used to determine the Transaction Date fair value of the Agreements by simulating a range of possible future stock prices for the Company through the expected settlement date of the Agreements. The significant assumptions utilized in estimating the fair value of the Agreements include: (i) a dividend yield of 0.0%; (ii) an expected volatility of 40.0%; (iii) a risk-free interest rate of 4.23% based on observed interest rates from the Treasury Constant Maturity yield curve consistent with the simulation term; and (iv) a starting share price of $8.25 based on the market price of the Company’s common stock as of the Transaction Date.

The initial fair value of the Agreements represented a forward purchase liability of $4 million. A loss of $13 million was recognized in Non-operating expense in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Operations to reflect the subsequent remeasurement of fair value of the Agreements due to changes in the market price of the Company’s Common Stock. The difference between the fair value of consideration transferred under the Agreements and the carrying value of the repurchased Series A Preferred Stock, amounting to $201 million, was recorded to Retained Deficit as a deemed dividend on the repurchase of shares of Series A Preferred Stock from the C&O Investors as part of the Transaction. A liability for excise tax, amounting to $6 million, was also recorded to Retained Deficit as a deemed dividend.

In connection with the 2023 Conversion, the Company also recognized a deemed dividend on the 2023 Conversion for $25 million, corresponding to the Additional Amounts paid to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock on the shares of Series A Preferred Stock that were converted.

As part of the Agreements, the C&O Investors have agreed with the Company to certain changes to their governance rights under the Company’s governance documents, including a reduction of their existing board nomination rights, as well as lock-up restrictions on their equity securities of the Company for up to twelve months, and certain limits on their ability to purchase additional equity securities of the Company and to voting limitations, in each case for a period of up to eighteen months.

On April 12, 2023, the Company also announced an increase in its share repurchase authorization to $250 million. Under the share repurchase program, the Company may repurchase shares of Common Stock in open market transactions, privately negotiated purchases and other transactions from time to time.

The following table summarizes the effects of the Transaction on the Consolidated Interim Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2023 and the Consolidated Interim Statement of Operations and Consolidated Interim Statement of Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023:

Note 16. Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measures

Our credit, market and foreign currency risk management policies are described in Note 19, Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measures, to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 included in our 2022 Form 10-K. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had contracts with aggregate gross notional amounts of $2,884 million and $2,621 million, respectively, to hedge interest rates and foreign currencies, principally the U.S. Dollar, Swiss Franc, British Pound, Euro, Chinese Yuan, Japanese Yen, Mexican Peso, New Romanian Leu, Czech Koruna, Australian Dollar and Korean Won.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The FASB’s accounting guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). Financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had outstanding interest rate swaps with aggregate notional amounts of €830 million ($879 million based on September 30, 2023 foreign exchange rates) and $200 million, with maturities of April 2024, July 2024, October 2024, April 2025, April 2026, April 2027 and April 2028. The Company uses interest rate swaps specifically to mitigate variable interest risk exposure on its long-term debt portfolio. The $200 million interest rate swaps have been designated as cash flow hedges. The designated interest rate swaps' fair value were net assets of $1 million as of September 30, 2023.

The Company executed cross-currency swaps which have been designated as net investment hedges of its Euro-denominated operations and cash flow hedges to hedge the foreign currency exposure from foreign currency-denominated debt. In May 2023, the Company re-couponed the cross-currency swap contracts which have been designated as net investment hedges and received a cash settlement of $9 million. As of September 30, 2023, an aggregate notional amount of €615 million was designated as net investment hedges of the Company’s investment in Euro-denominated operations and €280 million was designated as cash flow hedges. The cross-currency swaps’ fair values were net assets of $71 million as of September 30, 2023. Our Consolidated Interim Statements of Comprehensive Income include Changes in fair value of net investment hedges and cash flow hedges, net of tax, of $20 million and $18 million, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, related to these designated cross-currency swaps. No ineffectiveness has been recorded on the designated cross-currency hedges.

The Company's forward currency exchange contract under our cash flow hedging program are assessed as highly effective and are designated as cash flow hedges. Gains and losses on derivatives qualifying as cash flow hedges are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income until the underlying transactions are recognized in earnings.

The foreign currency exchange, interest rate swap and cross-currency swap contracts are valued using market observable inputs. As such, these derivative instruments are classified within Level 2. The assumptions used in measuring the fair value of the cross-currency swap are considered Level 2 inputs, which are based upon market-observable interest rate curves, cross-currency basis curves, credit default swap curves, and foreign exchange rates.

The carrying value of Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, Account receivables and Notes and Other receivables contained in the Consolidated Interim Balance Sheet approximates fair value.

The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were not carried at fair value:


	September 30, 2023				December 31, 2022
	Carrying Value		Fair Value		Carrying Value		Fair Value
	(Dollars in millions)
Term Loan Facilities	$	1,629	$	1,671	$	1,156	$	1,151

The Company determined the fair value of certain of its long-term debt and related current maturities utilizing transactions in the listed markets for similar liabilities. As such, the fair value of the long-term debt and related current maturities is considered Level 2.

Note 18. Earnings Per Share

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, basic earnings per share ("EPS") is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as well as the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, basic earnings per share is calculated using the two-class method as our Series A Preferred Stock, which was converted into Common Stock pursuant to the Transaction, was considered a participating security. The two-class method requires an allocation of earnings to all securities that participate in dividends with common shares, such as our Series A Preferred Stock, to the extent that each security may share in the entity’s earnings. Basic earnings per share are then calculated by dividing undistributed earnings allocated to common stock by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. The Series A Preferred Stock was not included in the computation of basic earnings per share in periods in which we have a net loss, as the Series A Preferred Stock was not contractually obligated to share in our net losses.

Diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2023 is calculated based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period plus the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents using the treasury stock method. Diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as well as the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 is calculated using the more dilutive of the two-class or if-converted methods. The two-class method uses net income available to common shareholders and assumes conversion of all potential shares other than the participating securities. The if-converted method uses net income and assumes conversion of all potential shares including the participating securities.

The details of the EPS calculations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 are as follows:


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022

Weighted average common shares outstanding – Diluted	252,381,719		65,250,287		141,745,701		65,118,021
EPS – Diluted	$	0.23	$	0.21	$	(0.73)	$	0.52

For the periods where a net loss attributable to common shareholders is present, dilutive securities have been excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders as including them would have been anti-dilutive. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the weighted-average number of unvested RSUs and other contingently issuable shares excluded from the computations was 1,349,442 shares.

Note 19. Related Party Transactions

We lease certain facilities and receive property maintenance services from Honeywell International Inc. (“Honeywell”), which is a holder of our Common Stock and was also a holder of our Series A Preferred Stock prior to the 2023 Conversion as discussed below and in Note 15, Series A Preferred Stock. We also contract with Honeywell for the occasional purchase of certain goods and services. Lease and service agreements were made at commercial terms prevalent in the market at the time they were executed. Honeywell is not considered a related party subsequent to the 2023 Conversion.

Our payments under the agreements with Honeywell during the period that Honeywell was considered a related party are as follow:


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022

Liability balances are primarily related to lease contracts of $7 million as of December 31, 2022.

As discussed in Note 15, Series A Preferred Stock, in order to effect the Transaction, on April 12, 2023, the Company entered into separate definitive agreements with each of Centerbridge Partners, L.P. (“Centerbridge”) and funds managed by Oaktree Capital Management, L.P. (“Oaktree”), each of which is a holder of our Common Stock and appoints a director to our Board of Directors. Additionally, Mr. Kevin Mahony, who serves as a Managing Director of Centerbridge, and Mr. Steven Tesoriere, who serves as a Managing Director of Oaktree, have been appointed to our Board of Directors as designees of Centerbridge and Oaktree, respectively. As described more fully in Note 15, Series A Preferred Stock, in connection with the Transaction, we paid to Centerbridge and Oaktree an aggregate of approximately $570 million for the repurchase of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, plus an aggregate of approximately $10 million and 7,276,036 shares of Common Stock representing the Additional Amounts and Accumulated Dividends in respect of the repurchased shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Additionally, in connection with the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, we issued to Centerbridge and Oaktree an aggregate of 65,334,277 shares of Common Stock, plus Additional Amounts and Accumulated Dividends of approximately $9 million and 6,819,540 shares of Common Stock.

Additionally, Mr. John Petry, a director on our Board, serves as Managing Member of Sessa Capital (Master), L.P., which indirectly held shares of our Series A Preferred Stock prior to the conversion. In connection with the conversion of our Series A Preferred Stock, we issued to Sessa Capital and its affiliates, as holder of our Series A Preferred Stock, 16,592,384 shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of an equivalent number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, plus Additional Amounts and Accumulated Dividends of approximately $2 million and 1,731,900 shares of Common Stock.

Note 20. Commitments and Contingencies

Securities Litigation

On September 25, 2020, a putative securities class action complaint was filed against Garrett Motion Inc. and certain current and former Garrett officers and directors in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The case bears the caption: Steven Husson, Individually and On Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated, v. Garrett Motion Inc., Olivier Rabiller, Alessandro Gili, Peter Bracke, Sean Deason, and Su Ping Lu, Case No. 1:20-cv-07992-JPC (SDNY) (the “Husson Action”). The Husson Action asserted claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended (the "Exchange Act"), for securities fraud and control person liability. On September 28, 2020, the

plaintiff sought to voluntarily dismiss his claim against Garrett Motion Inc. in light of the Company’s bankruptcy; this request was granted.

On October 5, 2020, another putative securities class action complaint was filed against certain current and former Garrett officers and directors in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. This case bears the caption: The Gabelli Asset Fund, The Gabelli Dividend & Income Trust, The Gabelli Value 25 Fund Inc., The Gabelli Equity Trust Inc., SM Investors LP and SM Investors II LP, on behalf of themselves and all others similarly situated, v. Su Ping Lu, Olivier Rabiller, Alessandro Gili, Peter Bracke, Sean Deason, Craig Balis, Thierry Mabru, Russell James, Carlos M. Cardoso, Maura J. Clark, Courtney M. Enghauser, Susan L. Main, Carsten Reinhardt, and Scott A. Tozier, Case No. 1:20-cv-08296-JPC (SDNY) (the “Gabelli Action”). The Gabelli Action also asserted claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act.

On November 5, 2020, another putative securities class action complaint was filed against certain current and former Garrett officers and directors in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. This case bears the caption: Joseph Froehlich, Individually and On Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated, v. Olivier Rabiller, Allesandro Gili, Peter Bracke, Sean Deason, and Su Ping Lu, Case No. 1:20-cv-09279-JPC (SDNY) (the “Froehlich Action”). The Froehlich Action also asserted claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act.

The actions were assigned to Judge John P. Cronan. On November 24, 2020, competing motions were filed seeking the appointment of lead plaintiff and lead counsel and the consolidation of the Husson, Gabelli, and Froehlich Actions.

On December 8, 2020, counsel for the plaintiffs in the Gabelli Action — the Entwistle & Cappucci law firm — filed an unopposed stipulation and proposed order that would (1) appoint the plaintiffs in the Gabelli Action — the “Gabelli Entities” — the lead plaintiffs; (2) would appoint Entwistle & Cappucci as lead counsel for the plaintiff class; and (3) consolidate the Gabelli Action, the Husson Action, and the Froehlich Action (the “Consolidated D&O Action”). On January 21, 2021, the Court granted the motion to consolidate the actions and granted the Gabelli Entities’ motions for appointment as lead plaintiff and for selection of lead counsel. On February 25, 2021, plaintiffs filed a Consolidated Amended Complaint.

The Company’s insurer, AIG, has accepted the defense, subject to the customary reservation of rights.

The Company agreed with the Gabelli Entities and their lead counsel to permit a class claim to be recognized in the bankruptcy court and to have securities claims against the Company to be litigated in the district court alongside the Consolidated D&O Action. The Gabelli Entities have agreed that any recoveries against Garrett Motion Inc. on account of securities claims litigated through the class claim are limited to available insurance policy proceeds. On July 2, 2021, the bankruptcy court entered an order approving the joint request from the Company and the Gabelli Entities to handle the securities claims against Garrett Motion Inc. in this manner.

The Gabelli Entities were authorized and, on July 22, 2021, filed a second amended complaint to add claims against Garrett Motion Inc. On August 11, 2021, Garrett Motion Inc., Olivier Rabiller, Alessandro Gili, Peter Bracke, Sean Deason, Russell James, Carlos Cardoso, Maura Clark, Courtney Enghauser, Susan Main, Carsten Reinhardt, and Scott Tozier filed a motion to dismiss with respect to claims asserted against them. On the same day, Su Ping Lu, who is represented separately, filed a motion to dismiss with respect to the claims asserted against her. Lead plaintiffs’ opposition to the motions to dismiss was filed on October 26, 2021, and the defendant's reply briefs were filed on or before December 8, 2021. On March 31, 2022, the judge dismissed the complaints entirely - Su Ping Lu's motion to dismiss was granted with prejudice while the court granted the plaintiffs 30 days to file a third amended complaint against the Company and the other defendants.

On May 2, 2022, the plaintiffs filed a Third Amended Complaint (“TAC”) against all of the foregoing Defendants apart from Alessandro Gili and Su Ping Lu. On June 24, 2022, defendants moved to dismiss the TAC in its entirety, with prejudice. Plaintiffs filed their opposition on August 16, 2022, and defendants filed their reply brief on September 23, 2022. On September 22, 2022, the action was reassigned from Judge John P. Cronan to Judge Jennifer L. Rochon, who was recently appointed. On March 31, 2023, the action was dismissed with prejudice. The plaintiffs filed an appeal and the defendants' opposition is due on October 31, 2023.

Brazilian Tax Matter

In September 2020, the Brazilian tax authorities issued an infraction notice against Garrett Motion Industria Automotiva Brasil Ltda, challenging the use of certain tax credits (“Befiex Credits”) between January 2017 and February 2020. The infraction notice results in a loss contingency that may or may not ultimately be incurred by the Company. The

estimated total amount of the contingency as of September 30, 2023 was $37 million including penalties and interest. The Company believes, based on management’s assessment and the advice of external legal counsel, that it has meritorious arguments in connection with the infraction notice and any liability for the infraction notice is currently not probable. Accordingly, no accrual is required at this time.

Warranties and Guarantees

In the normal course of business, we issue product warranties and product performance guarantees. We accrue for the estimated cost of product warranties and performance guarantees based on contract terms and historical experience at the time of sale to the customer. Adjustments to initial obligations for warranties and guarantees are made as changes to the obligations become reasonably estimable. Product warranties and product performance guarantees are included in Accrued Liabilities and Other Liabilities. The following table summarizes information concerning our recorded obligations for product warranties and product performance guarantees.


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,

Other Commitments and Contingencies

We are subject to other lawsuits, investigations and disputes arising out of the conduct of our business, including matters relating to commercial transactions, government contracts, product liability, prior acquisitions and divestitures, employee benefit plans, intellectual property and environmental, health and safety matters. We recognize a liability for any contingency that is probable of occurring and reasonably estimable. We continually assess the likelihood of adverse judgments of outcomes in these matters, as well as potential ranges of possible losses (taking into consideration any insurance recoveries), based on a careful analysis of each matter with the assistance of outside legal counsel and, if applicable, other experts.

Note 21. Pension Benefits

We sponsor several funded U.S. and non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans. Significant plans outside the U.S. are in Switzerland and Ireland. Other pension plans outside the U.S. are not material to the Company, either individually or in the aggregate.

Our general funding policy for qualified defined benefit pension plans is to contribute amounts at least sufficient to satisfy regulatory funding standards. We are not required to make any contributions to our U.S. pension plan in 2023. We expect to make contributions of cash and/or marketable securities of approximately $7 million to our non-U.S. pension plans to satisfy regulatory funding standards in 2023, of which $6 million has been contributed as of September 30, 2023.

Net periodic benefit costs for our significant defined benefit plans include the following components:


	Three Months Ended September 30,								Nine Months Ended September 30,
	U.S. Plans				Non-U.S. Plan				U.S. Plans				Non-U.S. Plan
	2023		2022		2023		2022		2023		2022		2023		2022
	(Dollars in millions)
Service cost	$	—	$	—	$	1	$	2	$	—	$	1	$	4	$	5

	$	—	$	(1)	$	—	$	—	$	—	$	(1)	$	1	$	1

For both our U.S. and non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans, we estimate the service and interest cost components of net periodic benefit (income) cost by utilizing a full yield curve approach in the estimation of these cost components by applying the specific spot rates along the yield curve used in the determination of the pension benefit obligation to their underlying projected cash flows. This approach provides a more precise measurement of service and interest costs by improving the correlation between projected cash flows and their corresponding spot rates.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations, which we refer to as our “MD&A,” should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Interim Financial Statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as well as the audited annual Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 14, 2023 (our “2022 Form 10-K”). Some of the information contained in this MD&A or set forth elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including information with respect to our plans and strategy for our business, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. As a result of many important factors, including those set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of our 2022 Form 10-K and this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our actual results could differ materially from the results described in, or implied, by these forward-looking statements.

The following MD&A is intended to help you understand the results of operations and financial condition of Garrett Motion Inc., for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Executive Summary

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, net sales were $960 million, an increase compared to prior year of $15 million or 2%, including a favorable impact of $21 million or 3% from foreign currency translation. The increase was driven by ramp up of new products in small gasoline engine applications, offset by unfavorable product mix dynamics from demand softness for diesel and commercial vehicle applications due to global macro economic conditions.

Light vehicle product sales (which were comprised of diesel and gasoline products, including products for passenger cars, SUVs, light trucks, and other products) accounted for approximately 70% of our revenues. Commercial vehicle product sales (products for on- and off- highway trucks, construction, agriculture and power-generation machines) accounted for 16% of our revenues, while aftermarket and other products contributed 14% of our revenues. Approximately 45% of our revenues came from sales to customers located in Europe, 32% from sales to customers located in Asia, 21% from sales to customers in North America, and 2% from sales to customers in other international markets.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, we repurchased $161 million of Common Stock in connection with our share repurchase program. As of September 30, 2023, we had $72 million of the authorized repurchase value remaining under our share repurchase program.

On July 31, 2023, we made an early debt repayment in the amount of $200 million on our 2023 Dollar Term Facility.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, net sales increased compared to prior year by $15 million or 2%, including a favorable impact of $21 million or 3% due to foreign currency translation driven by higher Euro-to-US dollar exchange rates and partially offset by lower Chinese yuan-to-US dollar exchange rates. The increase was driven by ramp up of new products in small gasoline engine applications, offset by unfavorable product mix from demand softness for diesel and commercial vehicle applications due to global macro economic conditions.

Gasoline product sales increased by $40 million or 10% (including a favorable impact of $3 million or 1% due to foreign currency translation), primarily due to strong performance in Asia and North America related to product ramp-ups.

Diesel product sales decreased by $9 million or 4% (including a favorable impact of $12 million or 5% due to foreign currency translation), primarily driven by demand softness in India and China, due to program phase out and the negative impact of macro economic dynamics, respectively.

Commercial vehicle sales decreased by $22 million or 13% (including a favorable impact of $2 million or 1% due to foreign currency translation), primarily driven by demand softness influenced by the global economic environment combined with inventory build-up by some customers during prior quarters.

Aftermarket sales improved by $3 million or 3% (including a favorable impact of $3 million or 3% due to foreign currency translation), primarily due to favorable aftermarket conditions and demand for replacement parts in Europe and Asia Pacific, offset by softer sales in North America and Brazil.

https://cdn.kscope.io/fff6847e49f296a78fb987fb8abc6657-revenuebridgeytd2023002a.gif

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, net sales increased compared to prior year by $236 million or 9%, including an unfavorable impact of $32 million or 1% due to foreign currency translation driven by lower Chinese yuan-to-US dollar and lower Euro-to-US dollar exchange rates. This increase was driven by higher volumes as markets recovered from the semiconductor shortages experienced in the prior year coupled with strong demand for new product launches and ramp ups, and inflation recoveries net of pricing across all product lines.

Gasoline product sales increased by $190 million or 17% (including an unfavorable impact of $25 million or 2% due to foreign currency translation), primarily driven by the industry recovery from prior year’s global semiconductor shortages and COVID-related lockdown measures in China combined with new product launches and ramp ups across all regions.

Diesel product sales increased by $22 million or 3% (including a favorable impact of $1 million or 0% due to foreign currency translation), driven by performance in Europe where diesel is essential to meet fleet CO2 regulations targets coupled with light commercial vehicle sales on incumbent platforms.

Commercial vehicle sales increased by $9 million or 2% (including an unfavorable impact of $8 million or 1% due to foreign currency translation), primarily driven by performance in North America and Europe on new product launches and combined with favorable global product mix dynamics.

Aftermarket sales improved by $14 million or 4%, primarily on strong demand in Europe and Asia Pacific related to favorable aftermarket conditions including the continued high demand for replacement parts. Recovery in China from the end of the Chinese government's zero COVID-19 policy as well as new product introductions and favorable pricing impact also contributed to the growth.

Cost of Goods Sold / Gross Profit for the three months ended September 30, 2023	$	784	784	$	176

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, cost of goods sold increased by $17 million, primarily driven by higher sales volumes and an unfavorable product mix which contributed to increases of $12 million and $5 million, respectively. Cost of goods sold further increased by $2 million related to Research and development ("R&D") costs reflecting the continued commitment to investment in new technologies and $10 million from foreign currency impacts from transactional, translational and hedging effects. Our continued focus on productivity, net of labor inflation and repositioning costs, contributed to a decrease in cost of goods sold of $12 million.

Gross profit decreased by $2 million, mainly driven by $23 million of unfavorable product mix from the decline of high margin products, $5 million of pricing net of inflation recovery from customer pass-through agreements, and $2 million of higher R&D costs as discussed above. These decreases were partially offset by $12 million of higher productivity net of labor inflation and repositioning costs, coupled with higher sales volumes of $5 million. Furthermore, foreign currency impacts from transactional, translational and hedging effects also contributed to increases in gross profit of $11 million.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, cost of goods sold increased by $191 million, primarily driven by our higher sales volumes and unfavorable product mix which contributed to increases of $162 million and $40 million, respectively. Cost of goods sold further increased $42 million from inflation of commodities, energy and transportation and $12 million from increased R&D costs which reflects the continued investment in new technologies and headcount year-over-year. Our focus on productivity, net of labor inflation, one-time expenses and higher repositioning costs, contributed to a decrease in cost of goods sold of $29 million. Foreign currency impacts from transactional, translational and hedging effects reduced cost of goods sold by $36 million.

Gross profit increased by $45 million, mainly driven by the higher sales volumes of $69 million and $46 million of inflation recovery from customer pass-through agreements net of pricing reductions. Furthermore, gross profit increased $27 million from higher productivity net of labor inflation, one-time expenses and higher repositioning costs as discussed above, and $3 million from foreign currency impacts from transactional, translational and hedging effects. These increases were partially offset by $42 million inflation on commodities, energy costs and transportation, as discussed above, $46 million of unfavorable product mix and a $12 million increase in R&D costs.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased by $2 million compared with the prior year primarily driven by a $2 million increase in legal and advisory fees following the completion of our Transaction and $1 million of labor inflation impact.

SG&A expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased by $14 million compared with the prior year, primarily driven by $9 million of legal and advisory fees related to our Transaction, $4 million of labor inflation impact, and $3 million of higher incentive compensation expense.

Interest Expense


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022
	(Dollars in millions)
Interest expense	$	50	$	18	$	108	$	61

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, interest expense increased by $32 million compared to the prior year due to $25 million of higher interest expense driven by the new 2023 Dollar Term Facility and increased interest rates, and $10 million of debt issuance cost amortization primarily due to the $200 million early repayment on our 2023 Dollar Term Facility, partially offset by $3 million from unrealized marked-to-market gains on our interest rate swaps.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, interest expense increased by $47 million compared to prior year due to $55 million of higher interest expense driven by the new 2023 Dollar Term Facility and increased interest rates, and $11 million of debt issuance cost amortization mainly due to the $200 million early repayment on our 2023 Dollar Term Facility. These increases in interest expense were partially offset by $10 million of interest accretion in the prior year on our Series B Preferred Stock that was fully redeemed in June 2022 and $7 million decrease in unrealized marked-to-market losses on our interest rate swaps.

Non-operating income

	(Dollars in millions)
Non-operating income	$	(4)	$	(29)	$	(1)	$	(73)

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, non-operating income amounted to $4 million versus $29 million in the prior year, due to a decrease of $23 million of interest income recognized in the prior year from unrealized marked-to-market gains on our interest rate swaps.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, non-operating income amounted to $1 million, versus $73 million in the prior year period, driven by a decrease of $56 million of interest income net of unrealized marked-to-market losses on our interest rate swaps, a $13 million loss on the remeasurement of the Series A Preferred Stock Agreement related to our capital structure transformation during the three months ended June 30, 2023, and $4 million of lower benefits from non-service components of pension cost compared to the prior year period.

Tax Expense

Tax expense	$	13		$	26		$	70		$	83
Effective tax rate	18.6		%	19.8		%	25.1		%	23.0		%

The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2023 is lower than the effective rate for the three month ended September 30, 2022 primarily related to an increase in global R&D benefits, lower taxes on non-U.S. earnings partially offset by nondeductible expenses and prior year non-recurring decrease in withholding taxes on undistributed earnings.

The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 is higher than the effective rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 primarily related to prior year non-recurring decrease in withholding taxes on undistributed earnings and nondeductible expenses in the prior year partially offset by increase in global research and development benefit and lower taxes on non-U.S. earnings.

In December 2022, the European Union reached an agreement to adopt the Minimum Tax Directive under Pillar Two. The agreement affirms that all Member States must transpose the Directive by December 31, 2023. The rules will therefore first be applicable for fiscal years starting on or after December 31, 2023. We will continue to monitor the implementation of Pillar Two in the countries in which we operate, as it is possible that such changes could materially impact our effective tax rate, corporate tax liabilities and cash tax liabilities.

The effective tax rate can vary from quarter to quarter due to changes in the Company’s global mix of earnings, the resolution of income tax audits, changes in tax laws, deductions related to employee share-based payments, internal restructurings, and pension mark-to-market adjustments.

Net Income

Net income	$	57		$	105		$	209		$	278
Net income margin	5.9		%	11.1		%	7.1		%	10.3		%

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased by $48 million compared with the prior year, primarily due to $32 million of higher interest expense as discussed above and $25 million of lower non-operating income, partially offset by $13 million of lower tax expense.

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased by $69 million compared with the prior year, primarily due to $72 million of lower non-operating income as discussed above, $47 million of higher interest expense and $14 million higher SG&A expenses, partially offset by a $45 million increase in gross profit, $13 million lower tax expense and a $5 million loss on extinguishment of debt recorded in the prior year.

Non-GAAP Measures

It is management’s intent to provide non-GAAP financial information to supplement the understanding of our business operations and performance, and it should be considered by the reader in addition to, but not instead of, the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Each non-GAAP financial measure is presented along with the most directly comparable GAAP measure so as not to imply that more emphasis should be placed on the non-GAAP measure. The non-GAAP financial information presented may be determined or calculated differently by other companies and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. Additionally, the non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of the Company’s operating results as reported under GAAP.

(1)We evaluate performance on the basis of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. We define “EBITDA” as our net income calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, plus the sum of net interest expense, tax expense and depreciation. We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as EBITDA, plus the sum of net reorganization items, stock compensation expense, repositioning costs, loss on extinguishment of debt, discounting costs on factoring, other non-operating income and capital structure transformation expenses. We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are important indicators of operating performance and provide useful information for investors because:

•EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA exclude the effects of income taxes, as well as the effects of financing and investing activities by eliminating the effects of interest and depreciation expenses and therefore more closely measure our operational performance; and

•certain adjustment items, while periodically affecting our results, may vary significantly from period to period and have disproportionate effect in a given period, which affects the comparability of our results.

In addition, our management may use Adjusted EBITDA in setting performance incentive targets to align performance measurement with operational performance.

(2)The Company applied ASC 852 for periods subsequent to September 20, 2020, the date the Company and certain of its subsidiaries each filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code, to distinguish transactions and events that were directly associated with the Company’s reorganization from the ongoing operations of the business. Accordingly, certain expenses and gains incurred related to these transactions and events were recorded within Reorganization items, net in the Consolidated Interim Statements of Operations.

(3)Stock compensation expense includes only non-cash expenses.

(4)Repositioning costs includes severance costs related to restructuring projects to improve future productivity.

(5)Reflects the non-service component of net periodic pension costs and other income that are non-recurring or not considered directly related to the Company's operations.

(6)Includes the loss on remeasurement of the Agreements as well as third-party legal and advisory fees that are directly attributable to the Transaction.

Adjusted EBITDA for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2023

https://cdn.kscope.io/fff6847e49f296a78fb987fb8abc6657-picture1a.gif

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, net income decreased by $48 million versus the prior year as discussed above within the Results of Operations for Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 section.

Adjusted EBITDA increased by $6 million compared to the prior year, mainly due to increased volume and productivity, and favorable foreign exchange impacts. These increases in Adjusted EBITDA were partially offset by unfavorable product mix and pricing net of inflation pass-through.

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we saw product ramp-ups of new small engine applications in gasoline, offset by demand softening in diesel and commercial vehicle applications influenced by global macro economic dynamics which resulted in an unfavorable product mix.

The increased productivity combined with fixed cost savings was partially offset by year-over-year labor inflation.

R&D expenses increased $2 million which reflects continued investments in new technologies, increased hiring to accelerate growth in the new technologies and year-over-year labor inflation.

Gains in foreign currency from translational, transactional and hedging effects in the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily driven by a higher Euro-to-US dollar exchange rate versus the prior-year period, also accounted for an $8 million increase in Adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted EBITDA for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023

https://cdn.kscope.io/fff6847e49f296a78fb987fb8abc6657-adjustedebitdawalkytd20230a.gif

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, net income decreased by $69 million versus the prior year as discussed above within the Results of Operations for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 section.

Adjusted EBITDA increased by $60 million compared to the prior year, mainly driven by increased volume and productivity, inflation pass-through net of pricing, and favorable foreign exchange impacts. These increases in Adjusted EBITDA were partially offset by inflation on commodities, energy and transportation and unfavorable product mix.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we saw customer demand increases across all product lines, in a less disruptive supply chain environment, as the industry recovered from the semiconductor shortages experienced in the prior year. Favorable impact from new product launches in gasoline, volume ramp-ups in commercial vehicles, and favorable aftermarket conditions including high demand for replacement parts, also contributed to Adjusted EBITDA during the period.

We maintained our focus on productivity in the current year as rising commodity prices led to higher raw material costs, particularly for nickel, aluminum and steel alloys. We recovered a majority of the increases from our customer pass-through agreements, especially for nickel, and continue to negotiate with our customers for further pass-through while actively managing our supply base and cost recovery mechanisms to minimize the impact of materials cost inflation. The increased productivity was partially offset by year-over-year labor inflation and increases in our SG&A expenses from higher incentive compensation expense.

R&D expenses increased $12 million reflecting continued investment in new technologies, including hiring, and year-over-year labor inflation.

Gains in foreign currency from translational, transactional and hedging effects in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily driven by lower Euro-to-US dollar exchange rates, also accounted for a $6 million increase in Adjusted EBITDA.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We employ several means to manage our liquidity, and our sources of financing include cash flows from operations, cash and cash equivalents, our Term Loan Facilities, and Revolving Facility.


	September 30, 2023		December 31, 2022
	(Dollars in millions)
Cash and cash equivalents	$	162	$	246
Restricted cash	1		2
Revolving Facility - available borrowing capacity	570		475

Term Loan Facilities - principal outstanding	1,677		1,186
Bilateral letter of credit facility - available capacity	3		1
Bilateral letter of credit facility - utilized capacity	12		14

On April 27, 2023, the Company entered into the Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement, which provided for additional financing of $700 million through the 2023 Dollar Term Facility and an increase of $95 million in maximum borrowings available under the Revolving Facility. The proceeds from the 2023 Dollar Term Facility were primarily used to finance the repurchase of shares of Series A Preferred Stock from the C&O Investors as part of the Transaction, and pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Third Amendment. The 2023 Dollar Term Facility matures on April 30, 2028. Prior to maturity, the 2023 Dollar Term Facility will be repaid quarterly in an amount equal to, during the first two years occurring after the Closing Date, 7.50% per annum of the aggregate principal amount, and thereafter, 10.00% per annum. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we repaid $200 million on our 2023 Dollar Term Facility and $5 million on our 2021 Dollar Term Facility.

As previously disclosed, the Company entered into the Agreements with the C&O Investors to repurchase certain shares and convert all remaining Series A Preferred Stock. As part of the Transaction, all holders of Series A Preferred Stock, including the C&O Investors, received an amount equal to the Accumulated Dividends and Additional Amounts outstanding at repurchase or conversion date (each as defined in Note 15, Series A Preferred Stock of the Notes to the

Consolidated Interim Financial Statements). As of September 30, 2023, all Series A Preferred Stock had either been repurchased or converted and there are no accumulated unpaid dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock. Refer to Note 15, Series A Preferred Stock of the Notes to the Consolidated Interim Financial Statements for further details regarding the Transaction.

We expect to continue investing in our facilities as we expand our manufacturing capacity for new product launches and invest in new technologies and strategic growth opportunities, in particular in the electrification of drivetrains. We believe the combination of expected cash flows, the term loan borrowings, and the Revolving Facility being committed until 2028, will provide us with adequate liquidity to support the Company's operations.

Share Repurchase Program

On November 16, 2021, the Board of Directors authorized a $100 million share repurchase program for one year, providing for the purchase of shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Common Stock. On November 2, 2022, the Board of Directors authorized the extension of the share repurchase program to November 15, 2023. On April 12, 2023, the Board of Directors further authorized an increase in the size of the share repurchase program to an aggregate amount of $250 million available as of that date.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had repurchased $178 million of Common Stock, with $72 million remaining under the share repurchase program. For more information, see Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

Cash Flow Summary for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023

Cash provided by (used for):
Operating activities	$	330	$	238
Investing activities	(48)		(78)
Financing activities	(366)		(436)
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and restricted cash	(1)		(27)
Net decrease in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	(85)	$	(303)

Cash provided by operating activities increased by $92 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 versus the prior year. The increase was primarily driven by an increase of $49 million in net income, excluding the effects of non-cash items. Favorable impacts from working capital and other assets and liabilities of $17 million and $26 million, respectively, also contributed to the increase in cash provided by operating activities.

Cash used for investing activities decreased by $30 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 versus the prior year due to $21 million of decreased expenditures for property, plant and equipment and $9 million of cash settlement received on the re-couponing of our cross currency swap contracts which have been designated as net investment hedges of our Euro-denominated operations.

Cash used for financing activities decreased by $70 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared with the prior year. Cash flows for financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 included $667 million from the 2023 Dollar Term Facility net of debt financing costs. We paid an aggregate amount of $605 million to holders of the Series A Preferred Stock related to the Transaction, including the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock as discussed above and in Note 15, Series A Preferred Stock of the Notes to the Consolidated Interim Financial Statements. We also made payments of $178 million for the repurchase of Common Stock under our share repurchase program and debt repayments of $205 million including a $200 million early debt repayment of our 2023 Dollar Term Facility and quarterly payments for our 2021 Dollar Term Facility. In comparison, cash used for financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily related to the Company's payment of $381 million for the final early redemption of our Series B Preferred Stock (exclusive of $28 million attributable to interest and included in cash from operating activities).

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not engage in any off-balance sheet financial arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our Consolidated Interim Financial Statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles is based on the selection and application of accounting policies that require us to make significant estimates and assumptions about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Actual results could differ from our estimates and assumptions, and any such differences could be material to our financial statements. Our critical accounting policies are summarized in the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section of our 2022 Form 10-K.

We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements. Except as required by applicable law, we do not plan to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements contained herein, whether as a result of any new information, future events, changed circumstances or otherwise.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

As of September 30, 2023, the net fair value of all financial instruments with exposure to currency risk was a $77 million asset. The potential loss or gain in fair value for such financial instruments from a hypothetical 10% adverse or favorable change in quoted currency exchange rates would be $141 million and $(150) million, respectively, at September 30, 2023 exchange rates. The model assumes a parallel shift in currency exchange rates; however, currency exchange rates

rarely move in the same direction. The assumption that currency exchange rates change in a parallel fashion may overstate the impact of changing currency exchange rates on assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar.

There have been no other material changes to the Company’s quantitative and qualitative disclosures about interest rate or commodity price risks as disclosed in Part II, Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks, in our 2022 Form 10-K.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act. Based on management’s evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of September 30, 2023.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are involved in various lawsuits, claims and proceedings incident to the operation of our businesses, including those pertaining to product liability, product safety, environmental, safety and health, intellectual property, employment, commercial and contractual matters and various other matters. Although the outcome of any such lawsuit, claim or proceeding cannot be predicted with certainty and some may be disposed of unfavorably to us, we do not currently believe that such lawsuits, claims or proceedings will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. We accrue for potential liabilities in a manner consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Accordingly, we accrue for a liability when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability is reasonably estimable.

For additional information regarding our legal proceedings, see Note 20, Commitments and Contingencies of the Notes to the Consolidated Interim Financial Statements.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes to the risks described under "Risk Factors” in our 2022 Form 10-K. In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the factors discussed under “Risk Factors” in our 2022 Form 10-K. These factors could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations, and could cause our actual results to differ materially from our historical results or the results contemplated by any forward-looking statements contained in this report.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
