COMMERCIAL VEHICLE GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

(Amounts in thousands, except for share and per share amounts and where specifically disclosed)

1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

Commercial Vehicle Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries, is a global provider of systems, assemblies and components to the global commercial vehicle market and the electric vehicle market. References herein to the "Company", "CVG", "we", "our", or "us" refer to Commercial Vehicle Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

We have manufacturing operations in the United States, Mexico, China, United Kingdom, Czech Republic, Ukraine, Thailand, India, Australia and Morocco. Our products are primarily sold in North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region.

We primarily manufacture customized products to meet the requirements of our customers. We believe our products are used by a majority of the North American Commercial Truck manufacturers, many construction vehicle original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs"), parts and service dealers, and distributors.

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Except as disclosed within these condensed notes to unaudited quarterly consolidated financial statements, the adjustments made were of a normal, recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in our annual consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted. Additionally, certain prior period amounts related to discontinued operations have been reclassified to conform to footnote presentation for the current year, as further described in this section.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2024, the Company entered into a purchase agreement to sell its cab structures business with operations in Kings Mountain, North Carolina and met the held for sale criteria with respect to its Industrial Automation segment given the Company's intent to sell its First Source Electronics (FSE) business with operations in Elkridge, Maryland. These divestitures represent a strategic shift in CVG's business and, in accordance with U.S. GAAP, qualified as discontinued operations. As a result, the operating results related to the cab structures business and Industrial Automation segment have been reflected as discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The assets and liabilities that are to be sold have met the requirements to be classified within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets under a held for sale designation. See Note 18, Discontinued Operations, for additional information on the divestitures.

As a result of classifying the Industrial Automation reporting segment as a discontinued operation, CVG is now comprised of three reportable segments: Vehicle Solutions, Electrical Systems and Aftermarket & Accessories. The financial information reported for Vehicle Solutions and Aftermarket & Accessories excludes the activity from the Kings Mountain, North Carolina facility as a result of the divestiture.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP in the United States requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates and assumptions are based on management's best estimates and judgment. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, which management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. We adjust such estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in these estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the consolidated financial statements in future periods.

These condensed notes to unaudited quarterly consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the "2023 Form 10-K"), which includes a complete set of footnote disclosures, including the Company's significant accounting policies.

2. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2023-07, Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (Topic 280). This ASU updates reportable segment disclosure requirements by requiring

Table of Contents

disclosures of significant reportable segment expenses that are regularly provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) and included within each reported measure of a segment's profit or loss. This ASU also requires disclosure of the title and position of the individual identified as the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measures of a segment’s profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Adoption of the ASU should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is also permitted. This ASU will likely result in us including the additional required disclosures when adopted. We are currently evaluating the provisions of this ASU and expect to adopt them for the year ending December 31, 2024.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740). The ASU requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as additional information on income taxes paid. The ASU is effective on a prospective basis for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is also permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. This ASU will result in the required additional disclosures being included in our consolidated financial statements, once adopted.

3. Revenue Recognition

We had outstanding customer accounts receivable, net of allowances, of $127.2 million as of September 30, 2024 and $129.3 million as of December 31, 2023. We generally do not have material other assets or liabilities associated with customer arrangements.

On May 12, 2022, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a second amendment (the “Amendment”) to its Credit Agreement pursuant to which the Lenders upsized the existing term loan facility to $175 million in aggregate principal amount and increased the revolving credit facility commitments by $25 million to an aggregate of $150 million in revolving credit facility commitments.

On July 30, 2024, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, as guarantors, entered into an Amendment No. 3, which amends the Credit Agreement. Amendment No.3 amends the terms of the existing Credit Agreement to limit the mandatory prepayment requirements for certain specified asset dispositions of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. The Company repaid $20.0 million in accordance with Amendment No.3 during the three months ended September 30, 2024.

At September 30, 2024, we had $14.0 million of borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, outstanding letters of credit of $1.1 million and availability of $134.9 million. Combined with availability under our China Credit Facility (described below) of approximately $11.4 million, total consolidated availability was $146.3 million at September 30, 2024. The unamortized deferred financing fees associated with the Revolving Credit Facility of $0.8 million and $1.0 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, are being amortized over the remaining life of the Credit Agreement. At December 31, 2023, we had no borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and we had outstanding letters of credit of $1.2 million.

Covenants and other terms

The Credit Agreement includes (a) a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.20:1.0, and (b) a maximum consolidated total leverage ratio of 3.00:1.0.

We were in compliance with these covenants as of September 30, 2024.

Repayment and prepayment

The Credit Agreement requires the Company to make quarterly amortization payments to the Term Loan Facility at an annualized rate of the loans under the Term Loan Facility for every year as follows: 5.0%, 7.5%, 10.0%, 12.5% and 15.0%. The Credit Agreement also requires all outstanding amounts under the Credit Facilities to be repaid in full on the Maturity Date.

Table of Contents

Amendment No. 3 amended the terms of the existing Credit Agreement and allowed mandatory prepayment requirements for certain specified asset dispositions of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to be applied to quarterly amortization payments. The Company repaid $20 million in accordance with Amendment No.3 during the three months ended September 30, 2024 which will be applied to future amortization payments beginning with the September 30, 2024 payment. See Note 15, Commitments and Contingencies, for the future minimum principal payments due on long-term debt for the next five years.

Foreign Facility

During the quarter ended March 31, 2023, we established a credit facility in China consisting of a line of credit which is subject to annual renewal (the "China Credit Facility"). The China Credit Facility was renewed during the quarter ended December 31, 2023, with availability of approximately $11.3 million (denominated in the local currency). We utilize the China Credit Facility to meet local working capital demands, fund letters of credit and bank guarantees, and support other short-term cash requirements of our China operations. We had no outstanding borrowings under the China Credit Facility as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. At September 30, 2024, we had $11.4 million (denominated in the local currency and this amount varies based on the currency conversion rate) of availability under the China Credit Facility.

Cash Paid for Interest

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, cash payments for interest were $9.0 million and $9.5 million, respectively.

The aggregate intangible asset amortization expense was $0.5 million and $0.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 respectively.

6. Fair Value Measurement

Fair value is the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is estimated by applying the following hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels, and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement:

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than those included in Level 1. For example, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets.

Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability.

Our financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, pension assets and liabilities. The carrying value of these instruments approximates fair value as a result of the short duration of such instruments or due to the variability of the interest cost associated with such instruments.

Recurring Measurements

Foreign Currency Forward Exchange Contracts. Our derivative assets and liabilities represent foreign exchange contracts that are measured at fair value using observable market inputs such as forward rates, interest rates, our own credit risk and

counterparty credit risk. Based on the utilization of these inputs, the derivative assets and liabilities are classified as Level 2. To manage our risk for transactions denominated in Mexican Pesos and Czech Crown, we have entered into forward exchange contracts that are designated as cash flow hedge instruments, which are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. The gains and losses as a result of the changes in fair value of the hedge contract for transactions denominated in Mexican Pesos are deferred in accumulated other comprehensive loss and recognized in cost of revenues in the period the related hedge transactions are settled. As of September 30, 2024, hedge contracts for transactions denominated in Czech Crown were not designated as a hedging instruments; therefore, they are marked-to-market and the fair value of agreements is recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets with the offsetting gains and losses recognized in other (income) expense and recognized in cost of revenues in the period the related hedge transactions are settled in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Interest Rate Swaps. To manage our exposure to variable interest rates, we have entered into interest rate swaps to exchange, at a specified interval, the difference between fixed and variable interest amounts calculated by reference to an agreed upon notional principal amount. The interest rate swaps are intended to mitigate the impact of rising interest rates on the Company and covers approximately 50% of outstanding debt under the Term Loan Facility. Any changes in fair value are included in earnings or deferred through Accumulated other comprehensive loss, depending on the nature and effectiveness of the offset. Any ineffectiveness in a cash flow hedging relationship is recognized immediately in earnings in the consolidated statements of operations.

The fair values of our derivative assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis are categorized as follows:


	September 30, 2024								December 31, 2023
	Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3

Income tax expense is based on an estimated annual effective tax rate, which requires management to make its best estimate of annual pretax income or loss. During the year, management regularly updates forecasted annual pretax results for the various countries in which the Company operates based on changes in factors such as prices, shipments, product mix, material inflation and manufacturing operations. To the extent that actual 2024 pretax results for U.S. and foreign income or loss vary from estimates, the actual income tax expense recognized in 2024 could be different from the forecasted amount used to estimate the income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

15. Commitments and Contingencies

Leases - As disclosed in Note 7, Leases, we lease office, warehouse and manufacturing space and equipment under non-cancelable operating lease agreements that generally require us to pay maintenance, insurance, taxes and other expenses in addition to annual rental fees. As of September 30, 2024, our equipment leases did not provide for any material guarantee of a specified portion of residual values.

Guarantees - Costs associated with guarantees are accrued when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The most likely cost to be incurred is accrued based on an evaluation of available facts; where no amount within a range of estimates is more likely, the minimum is accrued. As of September 30, 2024 and 2023, we had no such guarantees.

Litigation - We are subject to various legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business, including but not limited to product liability claims, customer and supplier disputes, service provider disputes, examinations by taxing authorities, employment disputes, workers’ compensation claims, unfair labor practice charges, OSHA investigations, intellectual property disputes and environmental claims arising out of the conduct of our businesses.

Management believes that the Company maintains adequate insurance and that we have established reserves for issues that are probable and estimable in amounts that are adequate to cover reasonable adverse judgments not covered by insurance. Based upon the information available to management and discussions with legal counsel, it is the opinion of management that the ultimate outcome of the various legal actions and claims that are incidental to our business are not expected to have a material adverse impact on the consolidated financial position, results of operations, equity or cash flows; however, such matters are subject to many uncertainties and the outcomes of individual matters are not predictable with any degree of assurance.

Warranty - We are subject to warranty claims for products that fail to perform as expected due to design or manufacturing deficiencies. Depending on the terms under which we supply products to our customers, a customer may hold us responsible for

Table of Contents

some or all of the repair or replacement costs of defective products when the product supplied did not perform as represented. Our policy is to record provisions for estimated future customer warranty costs based on historical trends and for specific claims. These amounts, as they relate to the periods ended September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, are included within accrued liabilities and other in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

On July 24, 2023, one of our customers issued a voluntary safety recall related to certain wiper system components supplied by us. To the extent a loss occurs that is attributed to us, we believe that we have reasonable levels of insurance coverage to mitigate recall exposure risk. It is reasonably possible that we will incur additional losses and fees above the amount accrued for warranty claims but we cannot estimate a range of such reasonably possible losses or fees related to these claims at this time. There are no assurances, however, that settlements reached and/or adverse judgments received, if any, will not exceed amounts normally accrued.

The following presents a summary of the warranty provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2024:


Balance - December 31, 2023	$	1,458
Provision for warranty claims 1	1,329
Deduction for payments made and other adjustments	(1,497)
Balance - September 30, 2024	$	1,290

1.Provision for warranty claims includes $0.1 million of expense that is attributable to cab structures business and included in discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Debt Payments - As disclosed in Note 4, Debt, the Credit Agreement requires the Company to repay a fixed amount of principal on a quarterly basis and make voluntary prepayments that coincide with certain events.

The following table provides future minimum principal payments due on long-term debt for the next five years. The existing long-term debt agreement matures in 2027; no payments are due thereafter:

16. Segment Reporting

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise that are evaluated regularly by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), which is our President and Chief Executive Officer. Each of these segments consists of a number of manufacturing facilities. Certain of our facilities manufacture and sell products through multiple segments. Our segments are more specifically described below.

CVG's reportable segments were impacted in the current period due to the divestiture of the cab structure business with operations in Kings Mountain, North Carolina and the expected divestiture of the Industrial Automation segment. As a result of classifying the Industrial Automation reporting segment as a discontinued operation, CVG is now comprised of three reportable segments: Vehicle Solutions, Electrical Systems and Aftermarket & Accessories. The financial information reported for Vehicle Solutions and Aftermarket & Accessories excludes the activity from the Kings Mountain, North Carolina facility due to the divestiture.

The Vehicle Solutions segment designs, manufactures and sells the following products:

•Commercial vehicle seats for the global commercial vehicle markets including heavy duty trucks, medium duty trucks, last mile delivery trucks and vans, construction and agriculture equipment in North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific. This segment includes a portion of the company’s activities in the electric vehicle market.

•Plastic & Trim components primarily for the North America commercial vehicle market and power sports markets; and Cab structures for the North American medium-duty/heavy-duty ("MD/HD") truck market.

The Electrical Systems segment designs, manufactures and sells the following products:

•Cable and harness assemblies for both high and low voltage applications, control boxes, dashboard assemblies and design and engineering for these applications.

•The end markets for these products are construction, agricultural, industrial, automotive (both internal combustion and electric vehicles), truck, mining, rail, marine, power generation and the military/defense industries in North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific.

Table of Contents

The Aftermarket & Accessories segment designs, manufactures and sells the following products:

•Seats and components sold into the commercial vehicle channels that provide repair and refurbishing. These channels include Original Equipment Service ("OES") centers and retail distributors, and are spread across North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific.

•Commercial vehicle accessories including wipers, mirrors, and sensors. These products are sold both as Original Equipment and as repair products.

•Office seats primarily sold into the commercial and home office furniture distribution channels in Europe and Asia-Pacific.

Corporate expenses consist of certain overhead and shared costs that are not directly attributable to the operations of a segment. For purposes of business segment performance measurement, some of these costs that are for the benefit of the operations are allocated based on a combination of methodologies. The costs that are not allocated to a segment are considered stewardship costs and remain at corporate in our segment reporting.

The following tables present financial information for the Company's reportable segments for the periods indicated:

18. Discontinued Operations

On July 31, 2024, the Company entered into a purchase agreement to sell its cab structures business with operations in Kings Mountain, North Carolina for approximately $40 million. On September 6, 2024, the Company entered into an Amendment to the Purchase Agreement whereby the transaction closed on September 6, 2024 with the Company receiving $20 million of the purchase price on September 6, 2024 and $20 million (subject to adjustment) on October 1, 2024. The decision to divest this business was part of our strategy to reduce our exposure to the cyclical Class 8 market, lower our customer concentration, remove complexity from our business, and improves our return profile. As a result of the transaction, CVG recorded an after-tax gain on the sale of the business of approximately $27.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and recorded a Note receivable of $20.0 million in its balance sheet as of September 30, 2024. The $20.0 million Note receivable was subsequently collected on October 1, 2024.

On October 30, 2024, the Company entered into a purchase agreement to sell its First Source Electronics (FSE) business with operations in Elkridge, Maryland for approximately $1.5 million, with a note in the amount of $500 thousand and earn out potential of an additional $1.5 million subject to certain criteria. The Elkridge facility is the primary manufacturing facility of the Company's Industrial Automation segment. The decision to divest this business was part of our strategy to continually evaluate our portfolio of businesses and product lines for strategic fit and continued investment. As of September 30, 2024, the assets and liabilities of the Industrial Automation segment are classified as held for sale on the balance sheets, net of the

Table of Contents

estimated write-down loss as of September 30, 2024. CVG recorded an estimated after-tax loss on the contemplated sale of the Industrial Automation business of approximately $7.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024.

We determined that the sale of the cab structures and Industrial Automation businesses represent discontinued operations as they constitute disposals of a product line and an operating segment, respectively, meet the held for sale criteria, and are a strategic shift that will have a major effect on our operations and financial results (individually and collectively). As a result, we reclassified the related earnings (loss) from continuing operations to earnings (loss) from discontinued operations - net of income taxes on the consolidated statement of earnings (loss) for all the periods presented. No amounts for shared general and administrative operating support expense were allocated to the discontinued operation.

The Company has continuing involvement with the cab structures business through a transition services agreement (TSA), pursuant to which the Company and Buyer parties provide certain service to each other for a period of time following the disposition, up to one year. While the transition services are expected to vary in duration depending upon the type of service provided, the Company expects to reduce costs as the transition services are completed. The Company collected a total of $2.0 million related to the transition services agreement for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, which was recognized in Continuing operations, Other (income) expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the individual discontinued operations to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.

ITEM 2 – MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The discussion and analysis below described material changes in financial condition and results of operations as reflected in our condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our 2023 Form 10-K.

Business Overview

CVG is a global provider of systems, assemblies and components to the global commercial vehicle market and the electric vehicle market. We deliver real solutions to complex design, engineering and manufacturing problems while creating positive change for our customers, industries, and communities we serve.

We have manufacturing operations in the United States, Mexico, China, United Kingdom, Czech Republic, Ukraine, Morocco, Thailand, India and Australia. Our products are primarily sold in North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region.

We primarily manufacture customized products to meet the requirements of our customers. We believe our products are used by a majority of the North American Commercial Truck markets and many construction vehicle OEMs, parts and service dealers, and distributors.

Key Developments

On July 31, 2024, the Company and SVO, LLC ("Buyer") entered into a purchase agreement pursuant to which the Company would sell substantially all of the assets of the Company's business of manufacturing and assembling structured products, including cabs for medium and heavy-duty vehicles, at its facility in Kings Mountain, North Carolina (the Cab Structures business). On September 6, 2024, the Company and Buyer entered into an Amendment to the Purchase Agreement whereby the transaction closed on September 6, 2024 with the Buyer paying the Company $20 million of the $40 million Purchase Price. Pursuant to the Amended Purchase Agreement, the Parties agreed (i) that the remaining $20 million of the Purchase Price would be paid on October 1, 2024, (ii) that the Assigned Contracts (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) and the employees of Seller would transfer to Buyer on October 1, 2024, and (iii) the inventory would be valued as of October 1, 2024, for purposes of determining any adjustment to the Purchase Price.The Company received the remaining portion of the Purchase Price on October 1, 2024. The net proceeds of the transaction were approximately $40 million. The Company used the proceeds for debt paydown and other general corporate purposes. The Company recorded an after-tax gain on the sale of the business of approximately $27.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024.

On July 30, 2024, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, as guarantors, entered into Amendment No. 3, to the Credit Agreement. Amendment No. 3 amended the terms of the existing Credit Agreement to limit the mandatory prepayment requirements for certain specified asset dispositions of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. The Company repaid $20 million in accordance with Amendment No.3 during the three months ended September 30, 2024.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2024, the Company announced that it has retained an investment banking firm to explore strategic alternatives for its Industrial Automation business. On October 30, 2024, the Company entered into a purchase agreement to sell its First Source Electronics (FSE) business with operations in Elkridge, Maryland for approximately $1.5 million, with a note in the amount of $500 thousand and earn out potential of an additional $1.5 million subject to certain criteria. The Elkridge facility is the primary manufacturing facility of the Company's Industrial Automation segment. CVG recorded an estimated after-tax loss on the contemplated sale of the Industrial Automation business of approximately $7.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024.

The cab structures and Industrial Automation segment divestitures represent a strategic shift in CVG's business and, in accordance with U.S. GAAP, qualified as discontinued operations. As a result, the operating results and cash flows related to the cab structures business and Industrial Automation segment have been reflected as discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The assets and liabilities that are to be sold have met the requirements to be classified within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets under a held for sale designation. See Note 18, Discontinued Operations, for additional information on the divestitures.

Certain indirect corporate costs included within the selling, general and administrative expense caption of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations that were previously allocated to the Kings Mountain facility and Industrial Automation segment do not qualify for classification within discontinued operations and are now reported as selling, general and

Table of Contents

administrative expense within continuing operations on a consolidated basis and within the Corporate and other segment. CVG is implementing plans to eliminate these costs as part of its restructuring program.

During the year ended December 31, 2023 and the nine months ended September 30, 2024, management approved restructuring programs to align the Company’s cost structure to support margin expansion in key focus areas. The programs include workforce reductions, footprint optimization, and fundamental reorganization initiatives that were implemented to drive efficiencies and reduce operating costs in line with our go-forward business and financial objectives. We incurred $9.8 million of expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, related to these programs.

1.Not meaningful

Revenues. The decrease in consolidated revenues resulted from:

•a $28.4 million, or 16.8%, decrease in OEM and other revenues;

•a $2.7 million, or 8.0%, decrease in aftermarket and OES sales; and

The decrease in revenues of 15.3% is due primarily to a softening in customer demand in our Vehicle Solutions and Electrical Systems segments.

Gross Profit. Included in gross profit is cost of revenues, which consists primarily of raw materials and purchased components for our products, wages and benefits for our employees and overhead expenses such as manufacturing supplies, facility rent and utilities costs related to our operations. The $12.9 million decrease in gross profit is primarily attributable to the impact of lower sales volumes, unfavorable mix, operational inefficiencies and increased restructuring charges. Cost of revenues decreased $18.2 million, or 10.5%, as a result of a decrease in raw material and purchased component costs of $18.0 million, or 16.9%, and a decrease in labor and overhead expenses of $0.2 million, or 0.3%. As a percentage of revenues, gross profit margin was 9.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to 14.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The three months ended September 30, 2024 results include charges of $3.5 million associated with restructuring programs.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses consist primarily of wages and benefits and other expenses such as marketing, travel, legal, audit, rent and utilities costs, which are not directly or indirectly associated with the manufacturing of our products. SG&A expenses decreased $2.9 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily as a result of the gain on the sale of a building of $3.5 million, offset by increased restructuring charges. As a percentage of revenues, SG&A expense was 10.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to 10.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The three months ended September 30, 2024 results include charges of $0.7 million associated with restructuring programs.

Other Income. Other Income increased $1.4 million in the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in other income primarily related to TSA fees of $2.0 million recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2024.

Interest Expense. Interest associated with our debt was $2.4 million and $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease in interest expense primarily related to lower average debt balances offset by higher interest rates on variable rate debt during the respective comparative periods.

Table of Contents

Provision (benefit) for Income Taxes.

1.Not meaningful

Revenues. The decrease in consolidated revenues resulted from:

•a $72.9 million, or 13.6%, decrease in OEM and other revenues; and

•a $8.7 million, or 8.2%, decrease in aftermarket and OES sales.

The decrease in revenues of $81.7 million is primarily driven by a softening in customer demand across all segments, and the wind-down of certain programs in our Vehicle Solutions segment.

Gross Profit. The $36.7 million decrease in gross profit is primarily attributable to the impact of lower sales volumes, unfavorable mix, and increased restructuring charges. Cost of revenues decreased $45.0 million, or 8.3%, as a result of a decrease in raw material and purchased component costs of $44.2 million, or 13.1%, and a decrease in labor and overhead expenses of $0.8 million, or 0.4%. As a percentage of revenues, gross profit margin was 10.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to 15.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The nine months ended September 30, 2024 results include charges of $8.6 million associated with the restructuring programs.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. SG&A expenses decreased $5.4 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily as a result of the gain on the sale of a building of $3.5 million and reduced incentive compensation expense, partially offset by an increase in salary expense and consulting spend during the 2024 period. As a percentage of revenues, SG&A expense was 9.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to 9.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The nine months ended September 30, 2024 results include charges of $1.2 million associated with the restructuring programs.

Other Income. Other Income increased $1.1 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in other income primarily related to TSA fees of $2.0 million recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Interest Expense. Interest associated with our debt was $7.0 million and $7.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease in interest expense primarily related to lower average debt balances offset by higher interest rates on variable rate debt during the respective comparative periods.

Provision (benefit) for Income Taxes. An income tax benefit of $1.1 million and income tax expense of $6.3 million were recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The period over period change in income tax was primarily attributable to the $29.3 million decrease in pre-tax income versus the prior year period.

In 2021, as part of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development's ("OECD") Inclusive Framework, 140 member countries agreed to the implementation of the Pillar Two Global Minimum Tax ("Pillar Two") of 15%. The OECD continues to release additional guidance, including administrative guidance on how Pillar Two rules should be interpreted and applied by jurisdictions as they adopt Pillar Two. These changes, when enacted by various countries in which we do business, may increase our taxes in these countries. Changes to these and other areas in relation to international tax reform, including

future actions taken by foreign governments in response to Pillar Two, could increase uncertainty and may adversely affect our tax rate and cash flow in future years. We continue to evaluate the potential impact on future periods of Pillar Two, pending legislative adoption by individual countries.

Net Income (loss) from continuing operations. Net loss from continuing operations was $0.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to net income of $21.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2024, the Company had total liquidity of $177.2 million, including $30.9 million of cash and $146.3 million of availability from its U.S. and China credit facilities.

Our primary sources of liquidity as of September 30, 2024 were operating income, cash and availability under our credit facility. We believe that these sources of liquidity will provide adequate funds for our working capital needs, capital expenditures and debt service throughout the next twelve months. However, no assurance can be given that this will be the case. We also rely on the timely collection of receivables as a source of liquidity. As of September 30, 2024, we had outstanding letters of credit of $1.1 million and borrowing availability of $146.3 million from our U.S. and China credit facilities.

As of September 30, 2024, cash of $30.9 million was held by foreign subsidiaries. The Company had a $0.1 million deferred tax liability as of September 30, 2024 for the expected future income tax implications of repatriating cash from the foreign subsidiaries for which indefinite reinvestment is not expected.

Covenants and Liquidity

Our ability to comply with the covenants in the Credit Agreement, as discussed in Note 4, Debt, may be affected by economic or business conditions beyond our control. Based on our current forecast, we believe that we will be able to maintain compliance with the financial maintenance covenants and the fixed charge coverage ratio covenant and other covenants in the Credit Agreement for the next twelve months; however, no assurances can be given that we will be able to comply. We base our forecasts on historical experience, industry forecasts and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. If actual results are substantially different than our current forecast, we may not be able to comply with our financial covenants.

Operating activities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net cash used in operating activities was $6.8 million compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $30.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Net cash used in operating activities is primarily attributable to a lower net income from continuing and discontinued operations, including cash used to support restructuring programs for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to higher net income offset by an increase in working capital for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Investing activities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net cash provided by investing activities of $12.9 million compared to net cash used in investing activities of $15.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to $23.0 million proceeds from sale of the Company's cab structures and FinishTEK businesses during the current period and $4.5 million proceeds from the sale of a building. In 2024, we expect capital expenditures to be in the range of $20 million to $25 million.

Financing activities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net cash used in financing activities was $12.9 million compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Decrease in net cash provided by financing activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023 is primarily attributable to the $20.0 million term loan repayment, offset by an increase in borrowings under the revolving credit facility to fund working capital.

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

For information relating to quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk, see the discussion under "Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" in our 2023 Form 10-K. As of September 30, 2024, there have been no material changes in our exposure to market risk from those disclosed in our 2023 Form 10-K.

ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our senior management is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.

We evaluated, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2024. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2024 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There were no changes during the quarter ended September 30, 2024 in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls. Our management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that

Table of Contents

misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of error or mistake. Controls also can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.
