Item 8.01 Other Events.
On March 5, 2026, in connection with the previously announced separation (the “Spin-Off”) of Versigent Limited (“Versigent” or the “Company”) from Aptiv PLC (“Aptiv”), the board of directors of Aptiv announced that Aptiv will distribute all of the ordinary shares, par value $0.01 per share, of Versigent to holders of Aptiv ordinary shares as a pro rata dividend prior to the U.S. market open on April 1, 2026. The ordinary shares of Versigent are expected to begin trading on the New York Stock Exchange on April 1, 2026 under the ticker “VGNT.” Holders of Aptiv ordinary shares will be entitled to receive one ordinary share of Versigent for every three ordinary shares of Aptiv held on March 17, 2026, the record date for the distribution. The distribution is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions. Prior to the completion of the Spin-Off, Versigent Limited is expected to be converted into a Jersey public limited company and renamed Versigent PLC. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
Forward-looking statements.
This document contains “forward-looking statements” —that is, statements related to future, not past, events. These forward-looking statements often address Aptiv’s expected future business and financial performance and financial condition, and often contain words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “seek,” “see,” “will,” “would,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “target,” “preliminary,” or “range.” Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain, and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. For Aptiv, particular areas where risks or uncertainties could cause Aptiv’s actual results to be materially different than those expressed in Aptiv’s forward-looking statements include: Aptiv’s success in executing and completing asset dispositions or other transactions, including Aptiv’s plans to pursue the Spin-Off, the timing for such transactions, the ability to satisfy any applicable pre-conditions, and the expected proceeds, consideration and benefits to Aptiv; changes in macroeconomic and market conditions and market volatility, risk of recession, inflation, geopolitical conflicts, including those in the Middle East, supply chain constraints or disruptions, rising interest rates, oil, natural gas and other commodity prices and exchange rates, and the impact of such changes and volatility on Aptiv’s business operations, financial results and financial position; and Aptiv’s de-leveraging and capital allocation plans, including with respect to actions to reduce its indebtedness, the capital structures of Aptiv and Versigent, the timing and amount of dividends, share repurchases, organic investments, and other priorities; and other factors that are described in the “Risk Factors” section of Aptiv’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, as such description may be updated or amended in any future reports that Aptiv files with the SEC. These or other uncertainties may cause Aptiv’s actual future results to be materially different than those expressed in its forward-looking statements. Aptiv does not undertake to update its forward-looking statements.
