STONERIDGE, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(in thousands, except per share data, unless otherwise stated)
(Unaudited)
(1) Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Stoneridge, Inc. (the “Company”) without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The information furnished in the condensed consolidated financial statements includes normal recurring adjustments and reflects all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the SEC’s rules and regulations. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s 2024 Form 10-K.
Reclassifications
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to their 2025 presentation in the condensed consolidated financial statements.
(2) Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740) – Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures," which requires companies to disclose, on an annual basis, specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. In addition, companies are required to disclose additional information about income taxes paid. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The standard is to be adopted on a prospective basis; however, retrospective application is permitted. This ASU will modify the Company's financial statement disclosures, but will
not have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, "Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense
Disaggregation Disclosures," which requires companies to disclose certain costs and expenses within the notes to the
financial statements. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact on our annual consolidated financial statement disclosures.
(3) Revenue
Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with our customer are satisfied; generally this occurs with the transfer of control of our products and services, which is usually when the parts are shipped or delivered to the customer’s premises. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. The transaction price will include estimates of variable consideration to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue recognized will not occur. Incidental items that are not significant in the context of the contract are recognized as expense. The expected costs associated with our base warranties continue to be recognized as expense when the products are sold. Customer returns only occur if products do not meet the specifications of the contract and are not connected to any repurchase obligations of the Company.
The Company does not have any financing components or significant payment terms as payment occurs shortly after the point of sale. Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction that are collected by the Company from a customer are excluded from revenue. Amounts billed to customers related to shipping and handling costs are included in net sales in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight after control over a product is transferred to the customer are accounted for as a fulfillment cost and are included in cost of sales.

Revenue by Reportable Segment
Control Devices. Our Control Devices segment designs and manufactures products that monitor, measure or activate specific functions within a vehicle. This segment includes product lines such as actuators, sensors, switches and connectors. We sell these products principally to the automotive market in the North American and Asia Pacific regions. To a lesser extent, we also sell these products to the commercial vehicle and agricultural markets in the North American and Asia Pacific regions. Our customers included in these markets primarily consist of original equipment manufacturers (“OEM”) and companies supplying components directly to the OEMs (“Tier 1 supplier”).
Electronics. Our Electronics segment designs and manufactures advanced driver information solutions, vision systems, connectivity and compliance solutions and control modules. These products are sold principally to the commercial and off-highway vehicle markets primarily through our OEM and aftermarket channels in the European, North American and Asia Pacific regions. Our vision and safety systems are sold principally to the commercial vehicle and off-highway vehicle markets in the European and North American regions.
Stoneridge Brazil. Our Stoneridge Brazil segment primarily serves the South American region and specializes in the design, manufacture and sale of vehicle tracking devices and monitoring services, driver information systems, vehicle security alarms and convenience accessories, telematics solutions and multimedia devices. Stoneridge Brazil sells its products through the aftermarket distribution channel, to factory authorized dealer installers, also referred to as original equipment services and directly to OEMs. In addition, monitoring services and tracking devices are sold directly to corporate customers and individual consumers.
The following tables disaggregate our revenue by reportable segment and geographical location(1) for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024:

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)
Performance Obligations
For OEM and Tier 1 supplier customers, the Company typically enters into contracts to provide serial production parts that consist of a set of documents including, but not limited to, an award letter, master purchase agreement and master terms and conditions. For each production product, the Company enters into separate purchase orders that contain the product specifications and an agreed-upon price. The performance obligation does not exist until a customer release is received for a specific number of parts. The majority of the parts sold to OEM and Tier 1 supplier customers are customized to the specific customer, with the exception of camera monitoring systems (“CMS”) sold through our aftermarket channel that are mostly common across all customers. The transaction price is equal to the contracted price per part and there is no expectation of material variable consideration in the transaction price. For most customer contracts, the Company does not have an enforceable right to payment at any time prior to when the parts are shipped or delivered to the customer; therefore, the Company recognizes revenue at the point in time it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of a part to the customer. Certain customer contracts contain an enforceable right to payment if the customer terminates the contract for convenience and therefore are recognized over time using the cost to complete input method.
Our aftermarket products including accessories and replacement parts are focused on meeting the demand for safety, compliance and entertainment applications and are sold primarily to aftermarket distributors in our South American and European markets, as well as direct to aftermarket customers in North America. Aftermarket products have one type of performance obligation, which is the delivery of aftermarket parts and spare parts. For aftermarket customers, the Company typically has standard terms and conditions for all customers. In addition, aftermarket products have alternative use as they can be sold to multiple customers. Revenue for aftermarket part production contracts is recognized at a point in time when the control of the parts transfers to the customer, which is based on the shipping terms. Aftermarket contracts may include variable consideration related to discounts and rebates, which is included in the transaction price upon recognizing the product revenue.
A small portion of the Company’s sales are comprised of monitoring services that include both monitoring devices and fees to individual, corporate, fleet and cargo customers in our Stoneridge Brazil segment. These monitoring service contracts are generally not capable of being distinct and are accounted for as a single performance obligation. We recognize revenue for our monitoring products and services contracts over the life of the contract. There is no variable consideration associated with these contracts. The Company has the right to consideration from a customer in the amount that corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the Company’s performance to date. Therefore, the Company recognizes revenue over time using the practical expedient ASC 606-10-55-18 in the amount the Company has a “right to invoice” rather than selecting an output or input method.
Contract Balances
The Company had no material contract assets, contract liabilities or capitalized contract acquisition costs as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
(4) Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (using either the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) or average cost methods) or net realizable value. The Company evaluates and adjusts as necessary its excess and obsolescence reserve on a quarterly basis. Excess inventories are quantities of items that exceed anticipated sales or usage for a reasonable period. The Company has guidelines for calculating provisions for excess inventories based on the number of months of inventories on hand compared to anticipated sales or usage. Management uses its judgment to forecast sales or usage and to determine what constitutes a reasonable period. Inventory cost includes material, labor and overhead. Inventories consist of the following:

(Unaudited)
Inventory valued using the FIFO method was $137,871 and $138,420 at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Inventory valued using the average cost method was $13,923 and $12,917 at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
(5) Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements
Financial Instruments
A financial instrument is cash or a contract that imposes an obligation to deliver or conveys a right to receive cash or another financial instrument. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable are considered to be representative of fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. The fair value of debt approximates the carrying value of debt, due to the variable interest rate on our Credit Facility and the maturity of outstanding debt.
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
On March 31, 2025, the Company had open Mexican peso-denominated foreign currency forward contracts. The Company used foreign currency forward contracts solely for hedging and not for speculative purposes during 2025 and 2024. Management believes that its use of these instruments to reduce risk is in the Company’s best interest. The counterparties to these financial instruments are financial institutions with investment grade credit ratings.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
Foreign currency transactions are remeasured into the functional currency using translation rates in effect at the time of the transaction with the resulting adjustments included on the condensed consolidated statements of operations within other (income) expense, net. These foreign currency transaction (gains) losses, including the impact of hedging activities, were $(432) and $1,944 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
The Company conducts business internationally and, therefore, is exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk. The Company uses derivative financial instruments as cash flow hedges to manage its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates by reducing the effect of such fluctuations on foreign currency denominated intercompany transactions, inventory purchases and other foreign currency exposures.
Cash Flow Hedges
The Company entered into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge the Mexican peso currency in 2025 and 2024. These forward contracts were executed to hedge forecasted transactions and have been accounted for as cash flow hedges. As such, gains and losses on derivatives qualifying as cash flow hedges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss, to the extent that hedges are effective, until the underlying transactions are recognized in earnings. Unrealized amounts in accumulated other comprehensive loss fluctuate based on changes in the fair value of hedge derivative contracts at each reporting period. The cash flow hedges were highly effective. The effectiveness of the transactions was measured using regression analysis and forecasted future purchases of the currency.
In certain instances, the foreign currency forward contracts may not qualify for hedge accounting or are not designated as hedges and, therefore, are marked-to-market with gains and losses recognized in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations as a component of other (income) expense, net. At March 31, 2025, all of the Company’s foreign currency forward contracts were designated as cash flow hedges.
The Company’s foreign currency forward contracts offset a portion of the gains and losses on the underlying foreign currency denominated transactions as follows:
Mexican peso-denominated Foreign Currency Forward Contracts – Cash Flow Hedges

Fair Value Measurements
Certain assets and liabilities held by the Company are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are categorized using the three levels of the fair value hierarchy based on the reliability of the inputs used. Fair values estimated using Level 1 inputs consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. Fair values estimated using Level 2 inputs, other than quoted prices, are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly and include among other things, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active or inactive as well as inputs other than quoted prices that are observable. For forward currency and cross-currency contracts, inputs include forward foreign currency exchange rates. Fair values estimated using Level 3 inputs consist of significant unobservable inputs.
The following table presents our assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are categorized using the three levels of the fair value hierarchy based on the reliability of inputs used.

Revolving Credit Facility
On November 2, 2023, the Company entered into the Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility provides for a $275,000 senior secured revolving credit facility and it replaced and superseded the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The Credit Facility has an accordion feature, which allows the Company to increase the availability by up to $150,000 upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, including the consent of lenders providing the increase in commitments, and also includes a letter of credit subfacility, swing line subfacility and multicurrency subfacility. The Credit Facility has a termination date of November 2, 2026. Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at either the Base Rate or the SOFR rate, at the Company’s option, plus the applicable margin as set forth in the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility contains certain financial covenants that require the Company to maintain less than a maximum leverage ratio and more than a minimum interest coverage ratio.
As a result of entering into the Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, the Company capitalized $1,915 of deferred financing costs and wrote off $309 of previously recorded deferred financing costs during the year ended December 31, 2023.
The Credit Facility contains customary affirmative covenants and representations. The Credit Facility also contains customary negative covenants, which, among other things, are subject to certain exceptions, including restrictions on (i) indebtedness, (ii) liens, (iii) liquidations, mergers, consolidations and acquisitions, (iv) disposition of assets or subsidiaries, (v) affiliate transactions, (vi) continuation of or change in business, (vii) restricted payments, (viii) restrictions in agreements on dividends, intercompany loans and granting liens on the collateral, (ix) loans and investments and (x) changes in organizational documents and fiscal year. The Credit Facility contains customary events of default, subject to customary thresholds and exceptions, including, among other things, (i) non-payment of principal and non-payment of interest and fees, (ii) a material inaccuracy of a representation or warranty at the time made, (iii) a failure to comply with any covenant, subject to customary grace periods in the case of certain affirmative covenants, (iv) cross default of other debt, final judgments and other adverse orders in excess of $30,000, (v) any loan document shall cease to be a legal, valid and binding agreement, (vi) certain uninsured losses or proceedings against assets with a value in excess of $30,000, (vii) ERISA events, (viii) a change of control, or (ix) bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings.
On February 26, 2025, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
and Waiver (“Amendment No. 1”). Amendment No. 1 provides for certain covenant relief and restrictions during the
“Covenant Relief Period” (the period ending on the date that the Company delivers a compliance certificate for the quarter
ending December 31, 2025). During the Covenant Relief Period:
•the maximum leverage ratio of 3.50 was increased to 6.00 for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, 5.50 for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, 4.50 for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 and 3.50 for the quarter ended December 31, 2025;
•the minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.50 was waived for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 and was reduced to 2.00 for the quarters ended March 31 and June 30, 2025, and 2.50 and 3.50 for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2025, respectively;

•the Company’s aggregate amount of cash and cash equivalents, defined as 100% of North American and 65% of foreign cash balances, cannot exceed $70,000;
•the sale of significant assets (as defined) will require repayment in the amount of any net cash proceeds received and result in the reduction of the Credit Facility commitment, at the lesser of $100,000 or the net cash proceeds;
•there were certain restrictions on Restricted Payments (as defined); and
•a Permitted Acquisition (as defined) could not be consummated unless otherwise approved in writing by the required lenders.

Amendment No. 1 added an additional level to the leverage ratio based pricing grid, through maturity, when the leverage
ratio is greater than 3.50.
As a result of entering into Amendment No.1, the Company capitalized $561 of deferred financing costs during the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Borrowings outstanding on the Credit Facility were $203,186 and $201,577 at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
The Company was in compliance with all Credit Facility covenants at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
The Company also has outstanding letters of credit of $1,506 at March 31, 2025 and $1,571 at December 31, 2024.
Debt
The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary located in Stockholm, Sweden (the "Stockholm subsidiary"), has an overdraft credit line that allows overdrafts on the subsidiary’s bank account up to a daily maximum level of 20,000 Swedish krona, or $1,993 and $1,809, at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. At March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were no borrowings outstanding on this overdraft credit line. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the subsidiary borrowed and repaid 70,618 Swedish krona, or $7,036. The Stockholm subsidiary has pledged certain of its assets as collateral in order to obtain a guarantee of certain of the Stockholm subsidiary’s obligations to third parties.
The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary located in Suzhou, China (the “Suzhou subsidiary”), had lines of credit (the “Suzhou credit line”) that matured in March 2025 and allowed up to a maximum borrowing level of 20,000 Chinese yuan, or $2,740 at December 31, 2024. At December 31, 2024 there was $0 in borrowings outstanding on the Suzhou credit line. In addition, the Suzhou subsidiary had a bank acceptance draft line of credit that expired in October 2024 which facilitated the extension of trade payable payment terms by 180 days. The bank acceptance draft line of credit allowed up to a maximum borrowing level of 60,000 Chinese yuan.
(8) Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share was computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of Common Shares outstanding for each respective period. Diluted loss per share was calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted-average of all potentially dilutive Common Shares that were outstanding during the periods presented. However, for all periods in which the Company recognized a net loss, the Company did not recognize the effect of the potential dilutive securities as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. Potential dilutive shares of 136,118 and 298,592 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, were excluded from diluted loss per share because the effect would be anti-dilutive.
Weighted-average Common Shares outstanding used in calculating basic and diluted earnings per share were as follows:
Three months ended
March 31,
2025 2024
Basic weighted-average Common Shares outstanding 27,679,924 27,528,831
Effect of dilutive shares

There were 1,002,950 and 660,124 performance-based right to receive Common Shares outstanding at March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The right to receive Common Shares are included in the computation of diluted earnings per share, to the extent they are not anti-dilutive, based on the number of Common Shares that would be issuable if the end of the quarter were the end of the performance period.

(10) Commitments and Contingencies
From time to time, we are subject to various legal actions and claims incidental to our business, including those arising out of breach of contracts, product warranties, product liability, patent infringement, regulatory matters and employment-related matters. The Company establishes accruals for matters which it believes that losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. Although it is not possible to predict with certainty the outcome of these matters, the Company is of the opinion that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated results of operations or financial position.
As a result of environmental studies performed at the Company’s former facility located in Sarasota, Florida, the Company became aware of soil and groundwater contamination at the site. The Company engaged an environmental engineering consultant to assess the level of contamination and to develop a remediation and monitoring plan for the site. Soil remediation at the site was completed during the year ended December 31, 2010. A remedial action plan was approved by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection and groundwater remediation began in the fourth quarter of 2015. During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company did not recognize any expense related to groundwater remediation. At March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company accrued $217 and $244, respectively, related to expected future remediation costs. At March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, $117 and $144, respectively, were recorded as a component of accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets while the remaining amounts as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were recorded as a component of other long-term liabilities. Costs associated with the recorded liability will be incurred to complete the groundwater remediation and monitoring. The recorded liability is based on assumptions in the remedial action plan as well as estimates for future remediation activities. Although the Company sold the Sarasota facility and related property in December 2011, the liability to remediate the site contamination remains the responsibility of the Company. Due to the ongoing site remediation, the Company is currently required to maintain a $1,489 letter of credit for the benefit of the buyer.

The Company’s Stoneridge Brazil subsidiary has civil, labor, environmental and other tax contingencies (excluding income tax) for which the likelihood of loss is deemed to be reasonably possible, but not probable, by the Company’s legal advisors in Brazil. As a result, no provision has been recorded with respect to these contingencies, which amounted to R$48,631 ($8,470) and R$42,834 ($6,918) at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. An unfavorable outcome on these contingencies could result in significant cost to the Company and adversely affect its results of operations and cash flows.
On August 12, 2020, the Brazilian Administrative Counsel for Economic Defense (“CADE”) issued a ruling against Stoneridge Brazil for abuse of dominance and market foreclosure through its prior use of exclusivity provisions in agreements with its distributors. The CADE tribunal imposed a R$7,995 ($1,392) fine which is included in the reasonably possible contingencies noted above. The Company continues to challenge this ruling in Brazilian federal court to reverse this decision by the CADE tribunal.
Long Term Supply Commitment
In 2022, the Company entered into a long term supply agreement, as amended, with a supplier for the purchase of certain electronic semiconductor components through December 31, 2030. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company paid capacity deposits of $1,000 each in December 2022 and June 2023. The capacity deposits are recognized in prepaid and other current assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets and amortized ratably over the life of the purchase commitment. This long term supply agreement requires the Company to purchase minimum annual volumes while requiring the supplier to sell these components at a fixed price. The Company purchased $0 and $196 of these components during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company is required to purchase $5,571, $6,314, $7,463, $8,313, $841 and $1,492 of these components in each of the years 2025 through 2030, respectively.
Product Warranty and Recall
Amounts accrued for product warranty and recall claims are established based on the Company’s best estimate of the amounts necessary to settle existing and future claims on products sold as of the balance sheet dates. These accruals are based on several factors including past experience, production changes, industry developments and various other considerations. Our estimate is based on historical trends of units sold and claim payment amounts, combined with our current understanding of the status of existing claims, forecasts of the resolution of existing claims, expected future claims on products sold and commercial discussions with our customers. The key factors in our estimate are the warranty period and the customer source. The Company can provide no assurances that it will not experience material claims or that it will not incur significant costs to defend or settle such claims beyond the amounts accrued. The current portion of the product warranty and recall reserve is included as a component of accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Product warranty and recall reserve included $12,231 and $10,675 of a long-term liability at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, which is included as a component of other long-term liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
In 2023, the Company received a demand for arbitration from one of our customers seeking recovery for warranty claims related to past sales of PM sensor products, a product line we exited in 2019. In March 2024, pursuant to the arbitration process, the customer submitted a formal statement of claim notification for 29,340 euro ($31,733). In May 2024, the Company responded with a formal statement of defense denying responsibility for the claim. Based on our review of the technical and legal merits, we believe these warranty claims lack substantive merit and are significantly overstated. The Company continues to vigorously defend this matter in private arbitration. While no assurances can be made as to the ultimate outcome of this matter, or any other future claims, we do not currently believe a material loss is probable.
The following provides a reconciliation of changes in product warranty and recall reserve liability:
Three months ended March 31, 2025 2024
Product warranty and recall reserve at beginning of period $ 27,523  $ 21,610 
Accruals for warranties established during period 4,059  5,398 
Aggregate changes in pre-existing liabilities due to claim developments 681  283 
Settlements made during the period (3,960) (3,217)
Foreign currency translation 1,732  (692)
Product warranty and recall reserve at end of period $ 30,035  $ 23,382

(12) Income Taxes
For interim tax reporting, we estimate our annual effective tax rate and apply it to our year to date ordinary income. Tax jurisdictions with a projected or year to date loss for which a benefit cannot be realized are excluded.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, income tax expense of $1,564 was attributable to the mix of earnings among tax jurisdictions, the impact of valuation allowances in certain jurisdictions and tax credits and incentives offset by U.S. taxes on foreign earnings. The effective tax rate of (27.8)% varies from the statutory rate primarily due to the impact of valuation allowances in certain jurisdictions and tax credits and incentives offset by U.S. taxes on foreign earnings.
For the three months ended March 31, 2024, income tax expense of $510 was attributable to the mix of earnings among tax jurisdictions and U.S. taxes on foreign earnings offset by the impact of valuation allowances in certain jurisdictions and tax credits and incentives. The effective tax rate of (9.1)% varies from the statutory rate primarily due to U.S. taxes on foreign earnings offset by the impact of valuation allowances in certain jurisdictions and tax credits and incentives.
(13) Segment Reporting
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise that are evaluated regularly by the Company’s chief operating decision maker ("CODM") in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s CODM is the Chief Executive Officer.
The Company has three reportable segments, Control Devices, Electronics and Stoneridge Brazil, which also represent its operating segments. The Control Devices reportable segment produces actuators, sensors, switches and connectors. The Electronics reportable segment produces advanced driver information solutions, vision systems, connectivity and compliance solutions and control modules. The Stoneridge Brazil reportable segment designs and manufactures vehicle tracking devices and monitoring services, driver information systems, vehicle security alarms and convenience accessories telematics solutions and multimedia devices.
The accounting policies of the Company’s reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the Company’s 2024 Form 10-K. The Company’s management evaluates the performance of its reportable segments based primarily on revenues from external customers, operating income and capital expenditures. Inter-segment sales are accounted for on terms similar to those to third parties and are eliminated upon consolidation.
The Company's management, including the CODM, utilizes operating income as the key performance measure of segment
profitability to evaluate segment performance, and for planning and forecasting purposes to allocate resources to the
segments, as management believes this measure is most reflective of the financial performance of the Company's operating
segments. The CODM regularly evaluates budget-to-actual and period-over-period variances for this metric when making
decisions about the allocation of operating and capital resources to each segment. The CODM also uses operating income
in evaluating the operating performance of each segment and as part of determining the compensation of the segment
managers and certain other employees. COGS and D&D are the significant expenses regularly reviewed by the CODM.
Other segment costs primarily include SG&A items.
The financial information presented below is for our three reportable operating segments and includes adjustments for unallocated corporate costs and intercompany eliminations, where applicable. Such costs and eliminations do not meet the requirements for being classified as an operating segment. Unallocated Corporate costs include various support functions, such as accounting/finance, executive administration, human resources, information technology and legal.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
We are a global supplier of safe and efficient electronics systems and technologies. Our systems and products power vehicle intelligence, while enabling safety and security for global commercial, automotive, off-highway and agricultural vehicle markets.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes related thereto and other financial information included elsewhere herein.
Segments
We are organized by products produced and markets served. Under this structure, our operations have been reported using the following segments:
Control Devices. This segment includes results of operations that manufacture actuators, sensors, switches and connectors.
Electronics. This segment includes results of operations from the production of advanced driver information solutions, vision systems, connectivity and compliance solutions and control modules.
Stoneridge Brazil. This segment includes results of operations that design and manufacture vehicle tracking devices and monitoring services, driver information systems, vehicle security alarms and convenience accessories, telematics solutions and multimedia devices.
First Quarter Overview
The Company had net loss of $7.2 million, or $(0.26) per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 increased by $1.1 million, or $(0.04) per diluted share, from net loss of $6.1 million, or $(0.22) per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2024. Net sales decreased by $21.3 million, or 8.9%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily from lower volumes in our North American and European commercial vehicle markets for our Electronics segment and lower volumes in our North American automotive market including the expected end-of-life production for an actuator product for our Control Devices segment offset by higher OEM product sales at Stoneridge Brazil. Gross margin as a percent of sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 increased to 21.2% from 20.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2024 driven by lower material costs including favorable foreign exchange related variances offset by lower contribution from lower sales and business realignment costs incurred for operational efficiency initiatives at our Juarez facility. In addition, non-operating foreign currency gains and equity earnings favorably impacted results for the quarter ending March 31, 2025.
Our Control Devices segment net sales decreased by 10.8% compared to the first quarter of 2024 primarily as a result of decreases in our North American automotive market, including the expected end-of-life production for an actuator product, as well as decreases in our off-highway and China commercial vehicle markets. These decreases were offset by sales increases in our China automotive and North American commercial vehicle markets. Segment gross margin as a percentage of sales decreased due to lower contribution from lower sales levels offset by lower warranty and premium freight costs. Segment operating income decreased due to lower contribution from lower sales partially offset by lower D&D spending.
Our Electronics segment net sales decreased by 10.0% compared to the first quarter of 2024 primarily due to lower sales volumes in our North American and European commercial vehicle markets, partially mitigated by the on-going ramp-up of a recently launched European MirrorEye OEM program and higher sales of our next generation tachograph. We also experienced lower sales volume in our North American off-highway vehicle market and an unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation which were offset by higher sales in European off-highway market. Segment gross margin as a percent of sales increased compared to the prior year first quarter from lower material costs including favorable foreign exchange related variances, which were partially offset by lower contribution from lower sales and higher business realignment costs incurred for operational efficiency initiatives at our Juarez facility. Operating income for the segment decreased compared to the first quarter of 2024 because of lower gross profit and higher D&D expense as customer reimbursements declined more than spending driven by reduced launch activities.
Our Stoneridge Brazil segment net sales increased by 16.8% compared to the first quarter of 2024 primarily from higher OEM product sales offset by unfavorable foreign currency translation and lower original equipment services ("OES") channel sales. Operating income increased due to higher contribution from higher sales levels partially offset by the adverse impact of U.S. dollar denominated material purchases.
In the first quarter of 2025, SG&A expenses increased by $1.3 million compared to the first quarter of 2024 driven primarily by higher business realignment costs and professional services being offset by lower incentive compensation.
24

In the first quarter of 2025, D&D costs increased by $0.2 million compared to the prior year first quarter from higher expense in our Electronics segment as customer reimbursements declined more than spending driven by reduced launch activities offset by lower D&D spending in our Control Devices segment.

At March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had cash and cash equivalents balances primarily held at our foreign locations of $79.1 million and $71.8 million, respectively, and we had $203.2 million and $201.6 million, respectively, in borrowings outstanding on our Credit Facility. The 2025 increase in cash and cash equivalents was mostly due to cash generated from operating activities including lower working capital levels.
Outlook
The Company believes that focusing on products that address industry megatrends has had and will continue to have a positive effect on both our top-line growth and financial performance. Expanding on our existing products and technology platforms with advanced capabilities, applications and data services is core to our long-term strategy. For example, we continue to develop safety, vehicle intelligence and connectivity based products, such as our OEM MirrorEye® programs in North America and Europe as well as our next generation tachograph in Europe.
In April 2025, the U.S. government announced additional tariffs on various goods imported to the U.S. and other countries announced reciprocal tariffs on goods imported to such countries, including goods used by or manufactured by Stoneridge. Some of these additional tariffs have been implemented and others have been conditionally paused, and it is reasonably possible that new or additional tariffs will be periodically announced given the current global trade environment. We continue to monitor and evaluate the direct and indirect impacts of these tariffs as well as heightened global trade disputes.
Our business model of manufacturing by regions for the regions limits the global impact of certain trade restrictions and tariffs. Our primary tariff exposure relates to our Mexico operations that sell products into the U.S., most of which are exempt under the provisions of the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement. Further, the majority of our supply components are not subject to the additional tariffs or are compliant with exceptions. We are taking and will continue to take actions to mitigate any direct and indirect impacts of new or additional tariffs including directly or indirectly passing the additional costs through to our customers. However, these matters are changing rapidly and there is significant uncertainty as to how long and to what degree that Stoneridge and the global transportation industry will be impacted by these new or additional tariffs, the adverse global trade environment and the resulting economic uncertainty.

Based on IHS Market production forecasts, the North American automotive market is expected to decrease from 15.5 million units in 2024 to 14.0 million units in 2025. In our Control Devices segment, we remain focused on drivetrain agnostic technologies to drive new business awards as the market continues to evolve. However, we expect lower sales in 2025 related to the impact of end-of-life production for an actuator product. We expect continued volatility in our end markets as uncertainty remains related to the market’s response to tariff policies. We continue to focus on operational excellence and enterprise-wide cost reduction, including material cost reduction plans, to continue to drive margin improvement going-forward.
Based on IHS Market production forecasts published in February 2025, in 2025 the European and North American commercial vehicle end market volumes are forecasted to increase 3.9% and decrease 3.3%, respectively. In 2025 and over the long-term, we expect our Electronics’ segment sales to outperform forecasted changes in production volumes due to strong demand for our existing products and the impact of ongoing launches of our OEM MirrorEye programs in North America and Europe as well as higher sales of our next generation tachograph in Europe. We expect continued growth in MirrorEye as we launch and ramp up new and existing OEM programs in both North America and Europe, and MirrorEye systems becomes standard on key truck platforms for existing OEM programs.
In 2025, we expect net D&D spend to slightly decrease driven by a shift to spending for the development of next generation products, opposed to new product launch related spend. As a result of reduced launch activities, we expect lower customer reimbursements and capitalization of software development costs. We continue to evaluate and optimize our engineering footprint to enhance capabilities and capacity for the most efficient return on our engineering spend, including utilizing our Stoneridge Brazil engineering resources to support Electronics segment projects.
In January 2025, the International Monetary Fund forecasted the Brazil gross domestic product to grow 2.2% in 2025, a decline from forecasted growth of 3.0% in 2024. We expect our served market channels to remain relatively stable in 2025 based on current market and economic conditions. Stoneridge Brazil continues to focus on growing our OEM capabilities in-region to better support our global customers. We expect this strategy will provide opportunities for future growth and a platform to continue to rotate our local portfolio to more closely align with our global products. In addition, we continue to align our global engineering capabilities and footprint by expanding our Brazilian engineering center.
While we expect continued challenges across our end markets in 2025, we will continue to focus on overall operating cost improvement and operational execution to drive contribution margin and focus on inventory reduction to improve our cash position and reduce our leverage profile.
25

Our future effective tax rate depends on various factors, such as changes in tax laws, regulations, accounting principles and our jurisdictional mix of earnings. We monitor these factors and the impact on our effective tax rate.
Other Matters
A significant portion of our sales are outside of the United States. These sales are generated by our non-U.S. based operations, and therefore, movements in foreign currency exchange rates can have a significant effect on our results of operations, which are presented in U.S. dollars. A significant portion of our raw materials purchased by our Electronics and Stoneridge Brazil segments are denominated in U.S. dollars, and therefore movements in foreign currency exchange rates can also have a significant effect on our results of operations. In the first quarter of 2025, the U.S. Dollar strengthened against the Brazilian real, unfavorably impacting our reported results, while it weakened against the Swedish krona, favorably impacting our reported results.
We regularly evaluate the performance of our businesses and their cost structures, including personnel, and make necessary changes thereto in order to optimize our results. We also evaluate the required skill sets of our personnel and periodically make strategic changes. As a consequence of these actions, we incur severance and resignation related costs that we refer to as business realignment charges. Business realignment costs of $2.8 million and $0.0 million were incurred in the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. We incurred $1.4 million in business realignment costs in the three months ended March 31, 2025 related to operational efficiency initiatives at our Juarez facility, which we expect will result in cost savings for direct and indirect labor and a more efficient overall operating structure. We expect to incur additional realignment costs related to this initiative and others in the remainder of 2025.
Because of the competitive nature of the markets we serve, we face pricing pressures from our customers in the ordinary course of business. In response to these pricing pressures we have been able to effectively manage our production costs by the combination of lowering certain costs and limiting the increase of others, the net impact of which to date has not been material. However, if we are unable to effectively manage production costs in the future to mitigate future pricing pressures, our results of operations would be adversely affected.

Total net sales $ 217,890  100.0  % $ 239,157  100.0  % $ (21,267) (8.9) %
Our Control Devices segment net sales decreased $8.3 million because of decreases in our North American automotive market of $5.0 million including the impact of expected end-of-life production for an actuator product as well as decreases in our off-highway and China commercial vehicle markets of $2.2 million and $1.5 million, respectively. These decreases were partially offset by volume increases in our China automotive and North American commercial vehicle markets of $1.0 million $0.4 million, respectively.
Our Electronics segment net sales decreased $15.0 million because of lower customer production volumes in our North American and European commercial vehicle markets of $7.9 million and $5.5 million, respectively, partially mitigated by higher MirrorEye sales, including the ramp-up of a recently launched European OEM program and higher aftermarket sales for our next generation tachograph. We also experienced lower sales volumes in our North American off-highway vehicle market of $1.7 million. These decreases were offset by an increase in our European off-highway market of $2.5 million. Net sales in the first quarter of 2025 were unfavorably impacted by euro and Swedish krona foreign currency translation of $2.7 million compared to the prior year quarter.
Our Stoneridge Brazil segment net sales increased $2.1 million from higher OEM product sales partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency translation of $1.8 million and lower OES channel sales of $0.3 million.

Total net sales $ 217,890  100.0  % $ 239,157  100.0  % $ (21,267) (8.9) %
The decrease in North American net sales was mostly attributable to a decrease in sales volume in our commercial vehicle, automotive and off-highway markets of $7.5 million, $5.0 million and $4.0 million, respectively. The decrease in our North American automotive market was primarily caused by lower customer volumes and the expected end-of-life production of an actuator product.
The increase in net sales in South America was from higher OEM product sales of $4.2 million partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency translation of $1.8 million and lower OES channel sales of $0.3 million.
The decrease in net sales in Europe and Other was due to decreases in customer production volumes in our European and China commercial vehicle markets of $5.5 million and $1.7 million, respectively, offset by an increase in our European off-highway and China automotive markets of $2.5 million and $1.0 million, respectively. Net sales were also impacted by an unfavorable foreign currency translation of $2.8 million.
Cost of Goods Sold and Gross Margin. Cost of goods sold decreased compared to the first quarter of 2024 and our gross margin increased to 21.2% in the first quarter of 2025 from 20.2% in the first quarter of 2024. Our material cost as a percentage of net sales decreased to 56.3% in the first quarter of 2025 from 58.9% in the first quarter of 2024. The decrease in material cost percentage was due to lower material costs including favorable foreign exchange related variances. Overhead as a percentage of net sales was 17.8% and 16.2% for the first quarter of 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase in overhead as a percentage of sales was attributable to lower sales as overhead spending was consistent with the prior year quarter.
Our Control Devices segment gross margin decreased primarily because of lower contribution from lower sales.

Cash provided by operating activities slightly increased compared to 2024 primarily due to cash provided from working capital levels. Cash used by receivables was unfavorable compared to 2024, however collection terms have remained consistent.
Net cash used for investing activities increased compared to 2024 due to higher capital expenditures including costs to modernize our Juarez facility offset by lower capitalized software development costs.
Net cash provided by financing activities decreased compared to 2024 due to a decrease in Credit Facility borrowings net of repayments.
As outlined in Note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements, the Credit Facility permits borrowing up to a maximum level of $275.0 million. This variable rate facility has an accordion feature which allows the Company to increase its availability by up to $150.0 million upon the satisfaction of certain conditions and lender consent through its expiration in November 2026. The Credit Facility contains certain financial covenants that require the Company to maintain less than a maximum leverage ratio and more than a minimum interest coverage ratio. The Credit Facility also contains affirmative and negative covenants and events of default that are customary for credit arrangements of this type including covenants that place restrictions and/or limitations on the Company’s ability to borrow money, make capital expenditures and pay dividends. The Credit Facility had an outstanding balance of $203.2 million at March 31, 2025.
On February 26, 2025, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
and Waiver (“Amendment No. 1”). Amendment No. 1 provides for certain covenant relief and restrictions during the
“Covenant Relief Period” (the period ending on the date that the Company delivers a compliance certificate for the quarter

•a Permitted Acquisition (as defined) could not be consummated unless otherwise approved in writing by the
required lenders.

Amendment No. 1 added an additional level to the leverage ratio based pricing grid, through maturity, when the leverage
ratio is greater than 3.50.

The Company was in compliance with all covenants at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The Company has not experienced a violation that would limit the Company’s ability to borrow under the Credit Facility, as amended, and does not expect that the covenants under it will restrict the Company’s financing flexibility. However, it is possible that future borrowing flexibility under the Credit Facility may be limited as a result of lower than expected financial performance due to the adverse impact of significantly lower global demand in our markets and challenging macroeconomic conditions. The Company expects to make additional repayments on the Credit Facility when cash exceeds the amount needed for operations and to remain in compliance with all covenants.
The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary located in Stockholm, Sweden, has an overdraft credit line that allows overdrafts on the subsidiary’s bank account up to a daily maximum level of 20.0 million Swedish krona, or $2.0 million and $1.8 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. At March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 there were no borrowings outstanding on this overdraft credit line. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the subsidiary borrowed and repaid 70.6 million Swedish krona, or $7.0 million. The Stockholm subsidiary has pledged certain of its assets as collateral in order to obtain a guarantee of certain of the Stockholm subsidiary’s obligations to third parties.
The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary located in Suzhou, China, had lines of credit that matured in March 2025 and allowed up to a maximum borrowing level of 20.0 million Chinese yuan, or $2.7 million at December 31, 2024. At December 31, 2024 there were no borrowings outstanding on the Suzhou credit line. In addition, the Suzhou subsidiary has a bank acceptance draft line of credit that expired in October 2024 which facilitated the extension of trade payable payment terms by 180 days. The bank acceptance draft line of credit allowed up to a maximum borrowing level of 60.0 million Chinese yuan.
In December 2018, the Company entered into an agreement to make a $10.0 million investment in Autotech Fund II managed by Autotech, a venture capital firm focused on ground transportation technology. The Company’s $10.0 million investment in the Autotech Fund II will be contributed over the expected ten-year life of the fund. As of March 31, 2025, the Company’s cumulative investment in the Autotech Fund II was $9.0 million. The Company did not contribute to Autotech Fund II during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, respectively.
Our future results could also be adversely affected by unfavorable changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We have significant foreign denominated transaction exposure in certain locations, especially in Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, Sweden, Estonia, the Netherlands, United Kingdom and China. Currently, we have foreign currency forward contracts in place for Mexican pesos. See Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional details. Our future results could also be unfavorably affected by increased commodity prices and material cost inflation as these fluctuations impact the cost of our raw material purchases.
At March 31, 2025, we had a cash and cash equivalents balance of approximately $79.1 million, of which 83.9% was held in foreign locations. The Company has approximately $71.8 million of undrawn commitments under the Credit Facility as of March 31, 2025, which results in total undrawn commitments and cash balances of more than $150.9 million. However, it is possible that future borrowing flexibility under our Credit Facility may be limited as a result of our financial performance.
The principal sources of liquidity available for our future cash requirements are expected to be (i) cash flows from operations, (ii) cash and cash equivalents on-hand and (iii) borrowings from our Credit Facility. We believe that our overall liquidity and operating cash flow will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash requirements for capital expenditures, working capital and other commitments during the next twelve months. While uncertainty surrounding the current economic environment could adversely impact our business, based on our current financial position, we believe it is unlikely that any such effects would preclude us from maintaining sufficient liquidity.
Commitments and Contingencies
See Note 10 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for disclosures of the Company’s commitments and contingencies.
Seasonality
Our Control Devices and Electronics segments are moderately seasonal, impacted by mid-year and year-end shutdowns and the ramp-up of new model production at key customers. In addition, the demand for our Stoneridge Brazil segment consumer products is generally higher in the second half of the year.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The Company’s critical accounting policies, which include management’s best estimates and judgments, are included in Part II, Item 7, to the consolidated financial statements of the Company’s 2024 Form 10-K. These accounting policies are considered critical as disclosed in the Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of the Company’s 2024 Form 10-K because of the potential for a significant impact on the financial statements due to the inherent uncertainty in such estimates. There have been no material changes in our significant accounting policies or critical accounting estimates during the first quarter of 2025.
Information regarding other significant accounting policies is included in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 8 of Part II of the Company’s 2024 Form 10-K.
International Presence
By operating internationally, we are affected by foreign currency exchange rates and the economic conditions of certain countries. Furthermore, given the current economic climate and fluctuations in certain commodity prices, we believe that an increase in such items could significantly affect our profitability. See Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional details on the Company’s foreign currency exchange rate risks.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
There have been no material changes to the quantitative and qualitative information about the Company’s market risk from those previously presented within Part II, Item 7A of the Company’s 2024 Form 10-K.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of March 31, 2025, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the principal executive officer (“PEO”) and principal financial officer (“PFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management, including the PEO and PFO, concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2025.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2025 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II–OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are involved in certain legal actions and claims primarily arising in the ordinary course of business. We establish accruals for matters that we believe that losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. Although it is not possible to predict with certainty the outcome of these matters, we do not believe that any of the litigation in which we are currently engaged, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated financial position or results of operations. We are subject to litigation regarding civil, labor, regulatory and other tax contingencies in our Stoneridge Brazil segment that we believe the likelihood of loss is reasonably possible, but not probable, although these claims might take years to resolve. We are also subject to product liability and product warranty claims. In addition, if any of our products prove to be defective, we may be required to participate in a government-imposed or customer OEM-instituted recall involving such products. There can be no assurance that we will not experience any material losses related to product liability, warranty or recall claims. See additional details of these matters in Note 10 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes with respect to risk factors previously disclosed in the Company’s 2024 Form 10-K.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
The following table presents information with respect to repurchases of Common Shares made by us during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Salvatore Orsini (“Employee”)

Washington, MI 48094
Re: Separation Agreement and Release of Claims (“Agreement”)
Dear Sal,
This Agreement confirms the mutual agreement we have reached concerning your separation from employment with Stoneridge, Inc. (the “Company”). Subject to your return of a signed copy of this Agreement to the undersigned no earlier than February 28, 2025, and no later than March 17, 2025, the Company will provide you certain separation payments and benefits as listed below:
1.Separation from Employment. Employee and the Company mutually agree that Employee’s employment with the Company shall end effective February 28, 2025 (the “Separation Date”). Employee’s last day worked will be January 29, 2025, after which time Employee will not report to work but will make himself reasonably available to answer phone calls and otherwise communicate with the Company until the Separation Date. Employee will be paid for all earned but unused vacation days as of the Separation Date. With the exception of vacation pay and LTIP as described in Section 2d below, Employee acknowledges that Employee is not owed any further salary, bonuses, or other compensation from the Company. In connection with separation from employment, Employee resigns from all officer, director, and member positions held with the Company and its subsidiaries, if any, effective as of the Separation Date.
2.Separation Payment and Benefits. If Employee signs this Agreement by March 17, 2025, and the Revocation Period specified in Section 11 below expires without revocation, the Company agrees to provide the pay and benefits specified in this Section 2:
a.Salary Continuation. Company will pay Employee the aggregate amount of Three Hundred Forty-Six Thousand One Hundred Twelve dollars ($346,112.00) representing one year of base salary, subject to statutory payroll deductions, in equal installments for twelve (12) months, according to the Company’s normal payroll cycle.
b.Separation Payment. Company will pay Employee a Separation Payment of Twenty-Six Thousand dollars ($26,000.00), subject to statutory payroll deductions, on the Company’s normal payroll cycle as soon as is practicable after Employee’s Separation Date and the Company has received a signed copy of this Agreement and the revocation period in Section 11, below, has expired with no revocation.
c.Healthcare Coverage. All health insurance benefits which covered Employee and/or Employee’s eligible dependents will be discontinued as of the last day of the calendar month of the Separation Date. Employee and Employee’s eligible dependents are entitled to continue health insurance benefits (including both medical and dental coverage) under which Employee is currently covered, as may be modified by the Company from time to time, under and through the terms of the applicable provisions of the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (“COBRA”). If Employee elects COBRA benefits to continue Company-provided health insurance benefits, the Company will directly pay Employee’s COBRA premiums for a period of twelve (12) months following the Separation Date (provided Employee remains eligible for COBRA coverage during that time). Employee is responsible for notifying the Company when Employee becomes covered by other coverage. If Employee elects to continue COBRA benefits beyond the twelve (12) months provided, Employee will solely be responsible for COBRA premiums, if any. All terms of coverage will be in accordance with the provisions of COBRA as described in the separate COBRA notification form that will be provided to Employee and Employee’s enrolled dependents. The period during which premiums are paid by the Company shall be part of Employee’s 18-month eligibility period under COBRA (or such longer period for which Employee may be deemed eligible).

1                                            Initials: /s/ SO


d.Annual Incentive Plan (“AIP”). Employee is ineligible to receive an annual incentive payment under the Annual Incentive Plan for plan year 2024 or plan year 2025.
e.Long-Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”). Employee agrees that Company will treat Employee as an involuntary termination “without cause” under the LTIP and grant agreements. Employee’s outstanding 2023 and 2024 LTIP awards are governed by the terms of the LTIP and Employee’s grant agreements. The Company will continue to prepare and file all Section 16 filings that Employee is required to file, including as a result of the LTIP vesting contemplated by this Agreement. Employee is ineligible to receive a grant after the Separation Date.
Per the Phantom Share Grant Agreement, Employee’s outstanding Phantom Share Grant will be paid in a lump sum payment, subject to statutory payroll deductions, on the Company’s normal payroll cycle as soon as is practicable after Employee’s Separation Date.
f.Basic Life Insurance. Employee shall be eligible for continuing life insurance benefits. Company will pay any required benefit contributions on behalf of Employee for twelve (12) months following the Separation Date, provided, however, that such required premium contributions will not be paid by Company for six (6) months following the Separation Date, at which time all required premium contributions during such six-month period shall be reimbursed to Employee in a single lump sum payment on the day which is six months and one day following the Separation Date. Employee shall be responsible for paying any required life insurance continuation benefit contributions during the six-month period immediately following the Separation Date. Failure to pay such required benefit contributions during such period shall result in forfeiture of the applicable benefits.
3.Release of Claims.
a.In exchange for entering this Agreement and for the benefits provided herein, Employee and Employee’s heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns, hereby forever release, remise and discharge the Company and each of its past, present, and future officers, directors, shareholders, members, employees, trustees, agents, representatives, affiliates, successors and assigns (collectively the “Company Released Parties”) from any and all claims, claims for relief, demands, actions and causes of action of any kind or description whatsoever, known or unknown, whether arising out of contract, tort, statute, treaty or otherwise, in law or in equity, which Employee now has, has had, or may hereafter have against any of the Company Released Parties from the beginning of Employee’s employment with Company to the date of this release, arising from, connected with, or in any way growing out of, or related to, directly or indirectly, (i) Employee’s employment with Company, (ii) Employee’s service as an officer or key employee, as the case may be, of Company, (iii) any transaction prior to the date of this release and all effects, consequences, losses and damages relating thereto, (iv) the services provided by Employee to Company, or (v) Employee’s termination of employment with Company under the common law or any federal or state statute, including, but not limited to, all claims arising under the Civil Rights Acts of 1866 and 1964, the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, the Equal Pay Act of 1963, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act of 1990, the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008, the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (“COBRA”), Title 4112 and 4113 of the Ohio Revised Code, the statutory and common laws of Michigan and any and all jurisdictions in which the Company or its affiliates maintain a place of business, and all other foreign, federal, state and local laws governing employers and employees, all as amended.

c.Employee acknowledges that this Agreement was reached through mutual negotiation, and that Employee is executing this Agreement voluntarily, under no duress caused by the Company. Employee agrees that this Agreement releases any and all claims arising under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (“ADEA”) and that a portion of the consideration in Section 2 is being paid for the express purpose of releasing rights under the ADEA. By signing this Agreement, Employee is not waiving the right to any ADEA claims that arise after the signing of this Agreement.
4.Non-Solicitation. Employee acknowledges that for twelve (12) months from the Separation Date, without prior written consent of the Company, on Employee’s behalf or on behalf of any person or entity, directly or indirectly, Employee will not hire or solicit the employment of any employee who has been employed by the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates at any time during the six (6) months immediately preceding such date of hiring or solicitation.
5.Non-Disparagement. Employee agrees that Employee will not, directly or indirectly or through an agent, make or cause to be made any oral or written statements that are of a derogatory, defamatory, or otherwise negative or critical nature concerning the Company or its employees, officers, directors, or products, to any other persons or entities, including but not limited to statements regarding its leadership, business practices, and Employee’s treatment by the Company. Employee will be responsible for any breach of this section caused by Employee or by Employee’s agents. However, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit Employee from providing truthful testimony pursuant to a subpoena or court order or initiating communications directly with, or responding to any inquiry from, or providing testimony before any U.S. or foreign federal, state, or local regulatory or other governmental authority.

3        Initials: /s/ SO



6.Return of Property. Employee has, or will return to the Company or destroy (in the case of any duplicate records) within a reasonable time after the Separation Date, (i) all property of the Company in Employee’s possession or under Employee’s control, including, but not limited to, any Company credit cards, keys, badges, computers, phones, equipment and supplies, and (ii) all originals and copies of writings and records (including records stored in electronic form) relating to the Company’s business (without retaining any copies).
7.Confidentiality of Agreement. Unless and until this Agreement enters the public domain through no fault of Employee, Employee agrees to keep the terms of this Agreement confidential and not to disclose, discuss, release, or publicize such terms in any way to any persons or entities, including but not limited to, other current or former employees of the Company provided, however, Employee may disclose the terms of this Agreement to Employee’s attorneys and/or accountant(s) as may be required in carrying out their respective duties, to Employee’s immediate family, or as otherwise required by law. The provisions of this Section do not in any way prohibit Employee from providing truthful information to any governmental agency or official.
8.Company Confidential Information.
a.Employee acknowledges and agrees that in the performance of Employee’s duties as an employee of the Company, Employee was brought into contact with, had or may have had access to, and/or became informed of confidential and proprietary information of the Company and/or information which is a competitive asset of the Company (collectively, “Confidential Information”) and the disclosure of which would be harmful of the interests of the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates. Confidential Information shall include, without limitation, the following information to the extent it has not been disclosed publicly: (i) customer, distributor and supplier information, (ii) product and systems specifications, schematics, designs, concepts for new or improved products and costs, (iii) future corporate planning data, (iv) marketing strategies, (v) the Company’s financial results and business condition, and (vi) any other information which constitutes a “trade secret” under federal or state law. Such Confidential Information is more fully described in Subsection (b) of this Section 8. Employee acknowledges that the Confidential Information of the Company gained by Employee during Employee’s association with the Company was developed by and/or for the Company through a substantial expenditure of time, effort and money and constitutes valuable and unique property of the Company.
b.Employee will keep in strict confidence, and will not, directly or indirectly, at any time, disclose, furnish, disseminate, make available, use or suffer to be used in any manner any Confidential Information of the Company without limitations as to when or how Employee may have acquired such Confidential Information. Employee specifically acknowledges that Confidential Information includes any and all non-public information, whether reduced to writing (or in a form from which information can be obtained, translated, or derived into reasonably usable form), or maintained in the mind or memory of Employee and whether compiled or created by the Company, which derives independent economic value from not being readily known to or ascertainable by proper means by others who can obtain economic value from the disclosure or use of such information, that reasonable efforts have been put forth by the Company to maintain the secrecy of confidential or proprietary or trade secret information, that such information is and will remain the sole property of the Company, and that any retention or use by Employee of confidential or proprietary or trade secret information after the termination of Employee’s employment with and services for the Company shall constitute a misappropriation of the Company’s Confidential Information.

4        Initials: /s/ SO



c.Regarding trade secrets specifically: Pursuant to 18 USC § 1833(b), Employee shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official or to an attorney solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law. Employee shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. Note that an individual who files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose the trade secret to the attorney of the individual and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual files any document containing the trade secret under seal; and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.
9.Cooperation. Employee shall cooperate fully with the Company and with the Company’s counsel in connection with any investigation, litigation, or administrative proceeding involving the Company that relates to matters during the period of Employee’s employment by the Company. Employee shall be reimbursed by the Company for reasonable expenses incurred in connection with such cooperation, and if Employee is no longer receiving salary continuation pursuant to this agreement, Employee shall also be entitled to an agreed upon hourly or daily rate (commensurate with his annualized compensation) for any such non-incidental assistance. The Company shall reasonably endeavor to schedule any requests at times not conflicting with the reasonable requirements of any employer of Employee. Employee shall not unreasonably withhold Employee’s availability for such cooperation.
10.Successors and Binding Agreements.
a.This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and any successor of or to the Company, including, without limitations, any persons acquiring, directly or indirectly, all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company whether by purchase, merger, consolidation, reorganization, or otherwise (and such successor shall thereafter be deemed included in the definition of the “Company” for purposes of this Agreement), but shall not otherwise be assignable or delegable by the Company.
b.This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Employee’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributes, and/or legatees.
11.Review Period and Revocation Period. Employee shall have forty-five (45) days from receipt of this Agreement within which to decide if Employee wants to sign it. Employee has seven (7) days after signing this Agreement in which to revoke Employee’s acceptance (“Revocation Period”). To revoke acceptance, Employee must inform the Company in writing to the undersigned that Employee has decided to revoke Employee’s acceptance. This Agreement will not be effective until the Revocation Period has expired with no revocation. Employee has been advised by the Company to consult an attorney prior to signing this Agreement.
Employee acknowledges that Employee has received Attachment A per the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act (“OWBPA”), which includes a list of the ages and job titles of employees who are part of the decisional unit and those whose positions are being eliminated due to the organizational restructure.

In the event that any provision of this Agreement fails to satisfy the provisions of Section 409A of the Code, then such provision shall be reformed so as to comply with Section 409A of the Code and to preserve as closely as possible the intention of the parties to provide the mutual rights and obligations under this Agreement, to the extent practicable; provided that, in the event it is determined not to be feasible to so reform a provision of this Agreement as it applies to a payment or benefit due to Employee or Employee’s beneficiary(ies), such payment shall be made without complying with Section 409A of the Code.
14.Entire Agreement. This Agreement shall constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and shall supersede all prior verbal or written agreements, covenants, communications, understandings, commitments, representations or warranties, whether oral or written, by any party hereto or any of its representatives pertaining to such subject matter. This Agreement may not be modified, waived or amended unless such modification, waiver, or amendment is in writing and signed by Employee and the Company.
15.Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Michigan.
