Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition
On November 4, 2025, UL Solutions Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025. The full text of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
The information contained or incorporated by reference in this Item 2.02, including the press release furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
Item 2.05. Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities
On November 4, 2025, the Company announced an expense reduction initiative to further improve the operating model and exit certain lines of business that are no longer considered strategically important to the Company (the “Restructuring Plan”). The Company expects to incur pre-tax expenses associated with the Restructuring Plan of approximately $42-$47 million in the aggregate, consisting of $37-$42 million in cash charges relating to employee separation expenses for approximately 3.5% of the Company’s current workforce and approximately $5 million in other cash charges, primarily relating to contract cancellations. The majority of costs associated with the Restructuring Plan are expected to be recorded in the fourth quarter of 2025 in the Consumer and Industrial segments. The Company anticipates the Restructuring Plan will be substantially completed by the end of the first quarter of 2027.
The timing and amount of the charges the Company expects to incur in connection with the Restructuring Plan may differ materially from the estimates disclosed above for various factors including, but not limited to, industry and macroeconomic environment; risks that the Company may be unable to implement the Restructuring Plan on the anticipated timing; that local law and consultation requirements, including for potential position eliminations, extends the restructuring process further in certain countries or causes the actual charges and expenditures that the Company incurs in connection with the restructuring plan, and the timing thereof, to differ materially from estimates; that the Company may incur other charges or cash expenditures not currently contemplated due to unanticipated events that may occur, including in connection with the implementation of the Restructuring Plan and that the Company may not be able to realize the anticipated benefits of the Restructuring Plan.
