NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES. Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements of Diebold Nixdorf Incorporated and its wholly- and majority-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the Company) include the accounts of the Company. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated, including common control transfers among subsidiaries of the Company.
Use of Estimates in Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements. The preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events. These estimates and the underlying assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported, disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Such estimates include revenue recognition, the valuation of inventories, goodwill, intangible assets, other long-lived assets, legal contingencies, guarantee obligations and assumptions used in the calculation of income taxes, pension and other post-retirement benefits and customer incentives, among others. 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. Management monitors the economic condition and other factors and will 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.
Reclassifications. The Company has reclassified the presentation of certain prior-year information to conform to the current presentation.
International Operations. The financial statements of the Company’s international operations are measured using local currencies as their functional currencies, with the exception of financial results from Argentina, Singapore, El Salvador, and Switzerland, which have a functional currency other than local currency. These operations used either United States dollar (USD) or euro as their functional currency depending on the concentration of USD or euro transactions and distinct financial information. The Company translates the assets and liabilities of its non-U.S. subsidiaries at the exchange rates in effect at year end and the results of operations at the average rate throughout the year. The translation adjustments are recorded directly as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, while realized and unrealized transactional gains (losses) are included in net income (loss).
Revenue Recognition. Refer to Note 17.
Cost of Sales. Cost of sales for services primarily consists of fuel, parts and labor and benefits costs related to installation of products and service maintenance contracts, including call center costs as well as costs for service parts repair centers. Cost of sales for products is primarily comprised of direct materials and supplies consumed in the manufacturing and distribution of products, as well as related labor, depreciation expense and direct overhead expense necessary to acquire and convert the purchased materials and supplies into finished products. Cost of sales for products also includes the cost to distribute products to customers, inbound freight costs, internal transfer costs, warehousing costs and other shipping and handling activity.
Property, plant and equipment and long-lived assets. Refer to Note 7.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is computed using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful life for each asset class. Amortization of leasehold improvements is based upon the shorter of original terms of the lease or life of the improvement. Repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Generally, amortization of the Company’s other long-term assets, such as intangible assets and capitalized software development, is computed using the straight-line method over the life of the asset. Fully depreciated assets are retained until disposal. Upon disposal, assets and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the accounts and the net amount, less proceeds from disposal, is recorded as gain or loss to operations.
Lease Accounting for Lessee Arrangements. Contractual arrangements are evaluated at inception to determine if the arrangements contains a lease. The Company utilizes lease agreements to meet its operational needs, including office space, warehouses, vehicles and IT equipment. The Company's lease population has initial lease terms ranging from less thanone year to approximately fifteen years. Some leases includeone or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term fromsix months to 15 years. Options to extend, purchase or terminate the lease are included as part of the right of use (ROU) lease asset and liability when it is reasonably certain the Company will exercise the option. For all lease assets, the fixed lease and non-lease components are accounted for as a single lease component when determining the ROU asset and lease liability. As most leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. In order to apply the incremental borrowing rate, a rate table was developed to assign the appropriate rate to each lease based on lease term and currency of payments. For leases with large numbers of underlying assets, a portfolio approach with a collateralized rate was utilized. Assets were grouped based on similar lease terms and economic environments in a manner whereby the Company reasonably expects that the application does not differ materially from a lease-by-lease approach.
Taxes on Income. Refer to Note 5.
Sales Tax. The Company collects sales taxes from customers and accounts for sales taxes on a net basis.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash. The Company considers highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.
Financial Instruments. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, trade receivables and accounts payable approximated their fair value because of the relatively short maturity of these instruments. The Company’s risk-management strategy allows for the use of derivative financial instruments such as forwards to hedge certain foreign currency exposures and interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk. The intent is to offset gains and losses that occur on the underlying exposures, with gains and losses on the derivative contracts hedging these exposures. The Company does not enter into derivatives for trading purposes. The Company recognizes all derivatives on the statement of financial position at fair value. Changes in the fair values of derivatives that are not designated as hedges are recognized in earnings. If the derivative is designated and qualifies as a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivatives are either offset against the change in the hedged assets or liabilities through earnings or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings.
Fair Value. The Company measures its financial assets and liabilities using one or more of the following three valuation techniques:
| Valuation technique | Description |
|---|---|
| Market approach | Prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. |
| Cost approach | Amount that would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost). |
| Income approach | Techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount based upon market expectations. |
The hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value is divided into three levels:
| Fair value level | Description |
|---|---|
| Level 1 | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.Fair value of investments categorized as level 1 are determined based on period end closing prices in active markets. |
| Level 2 | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active or inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly.Fair value of investments categorized as level 2 are determined based on the latest available ask price or latest trade price if listed. The fair value of unlisted securities is established by fund managers using the latest reported information for comparable securities and financial analysis. If the manager believes the fund is not capable of immediately realizing the fair value otherwise determined, the manager has the discretion to determine an appropriate value. |
| Net asset value | Fair value of investments categorized as NAV represent the plan’s interest in private equity, hedge and property funds. The fair value for these assets is determined based on the NAV as reported by the underlying investment managers. |
A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company uses the end of the period when determining the timing of transfers between levels.
Short-Term Investments The Company has investments in securities, primarily in Brazil, that are recorded at cost, which approximates fair value. Changes in fair value are recognized in interest income, determined using the specific identification method, and were minimal. There were no gains from the sale of securities or proceeds from the sale of securities prior to the maturity date for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. The cost basis and fair value of these investments was $29.1 and $16.9 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Foreign Exchange Contracts The valuation of foreign exchange forward and option contracts is determined using valuation techniques, including option models tailored for currency derivatives. These contracts are valued using the market approach based on observable market inputs. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including spot rates, foreign currency forward rates, the interest rate curve of the domestic currency, and foreign currency volatility for the given currency pair.
Refer to Note 15 for further details of assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurement.
Trade Receivables. The Company records the lifetime expected loss on uncollectible trade receivables based on historical loss experience as a percentage of sales and makes adjustments as necessary based on current trends. The Company will also record periodic adjustments for specific customer circumstances and changes in the aging of accounts receivable balances. Amounts deemed uncollectible are written off. The following table summarizes the Company’s allowances for doubtful accounts:
| Successor · Predecessor | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Year ended December 31, · Period from 08/12/2023 through 12/31/2023 · Period from 01/01/2023 through 08/11/2023 | ||||
| 2025 · 2024 | ||||
| Beginning balance | $10.9 | $3.6 | $— | $34.5 |
| Charged to costs and expenses | 19.2 | 17.8 | 8.0 | 16.6 |
| Charged to other accounts (1) | (1.4) | (1.2) | (0.2) | (0.3) |
| Deductions (2) | (22.7) | (9.3) | (4.2) | (14.7) |
| Fresh Start Accounting adjustment | — | — | — | (36.1) |
| Ending balance | $6.0 | $10.9 | $3.6 | $— |
(1) Includes net effects of foreign currency translation
(2) Uncollectible accounts written-off, net of recoveries.
Financing Receivables. The Company records the lifetime expected loss on finance lease receivables on a customer-by-customer basis and evaluates specific customer circumstances, aging of invoices, credit risk changes, payment patterns and historical loss experience with consideration given to current trends. After all efforts at collection have been unsuccessful, the account is deemed uncollectible and is written off.
Inventories. The Company primarily values inventories using average or standard costing utilizing lower of cost or net realizable value. The standard costs approximate costs determined on a first in, first out basis. The Company identifies and writes down its excess and obsolete inventories to net realizable value based on usage forecasts, order volume and inventory aging. With the development of new products, the Company may also rationalize its product offerings and will assess if it is required to write-down discontinued products to the lower of cost or net realizable value.
Deferred Revenue. Refer to Note 17.
Goodwill. Refer to Note 8.
Contingencies. Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines, penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. As additional information becomes available, any potential liability related to these matters is assessed and the estimates are revised, if necessary. Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred.
Pensions and Other Post-retirement Benefits. Refer to Note 13.
Noncontrolling Interests. Noncontrolling interests represent the portion of profit or loss, net assets and comprehensive income that is not allocable to the Company.
Related Party Transactions. The Company has certain strategic alliances that are not consolidated. The Company's strategic alliances are not significant subsidiaries and are accounted for under the equity method of investments. The Company owns 48.1% of Inspur (Suzhou) Financial Information Technology Co., Ltd (Inspur JV) and 49.0% of Aisino-Wincor Retail & Banking Systems (Shanghai) Co., Ltd (Aisino JV) as of December 31, 2025. The Company engages in transactions with these entities in the ordinary course of business. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had accounts receivable due from and accounts payable due to these affiliates of $11.0 and $22.2, respectively, which are included in trade receivables, less allowances for doubtful accounts and accounts payable, respectively, on the consolidated statement of financial position.
Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance. In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2023-09 - Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (ASU 2023-09). The amendments of ASU 2023-09 improves the transparency of financial reporting by adding requirements for disclosures related to effective tax rate reconciliation, as well as information on income taxes paid. Upon adoption as of December 31, 2025, the guidance was applied on a prospective basis. Refer to Note 5 of the consolidated financial statements for more information.
Recently Issued Accounting Guidance. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03 Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) -Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which is expected to lead to incremental disclosure about the type of expenses (including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and depletion) in commonly presented captions. In September 2025 they issued ASU 2025-06 Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which improves Subtopic 350-40 to increase the operability of the recognition guidance considering different methods of software developments. ASU 2024-03 and ASU 2025-06 are effective on December 31, 2027 and the Company is currently assessing the impact that they will have on its consolidated financial statements. In November 2024 the FASB issued ASU 2024-04 Debt (Topic 740) - Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments, which clarifies the requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments should be accounted for as an induced conversion, and is effective on December 31, 2026. The Company does not expect this ASU will have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.
Bankruptcy Accounting and Fresh Start Accounting. The consolidated financial statements of the Company for the Predecessor Period of January 1, 2023 through August 11, 2023 have been prepared using the going concern basis of accounting and in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic No. 852 – Reorganizations (ASC 852). See Note 2 for further detail.
Upon emergence from the Chapter 11 Cases and Dutch Scheme Proceedings (see Note 2), the Company qualified for and applied fresh start accounting (Fresh Start Accounting), at which point we became a new entity for financial reporting because (i) the holders of the then existing common shares of the Predecessor received less than 50% of the new shares of common stock of the Successor outstanding upon emergence and (ii) the reorganization value of the Company’s assets immediately prior to confirmation of the Plans (defined in Note 2) was less than the total of all post-petition liabilities and allowed claims.
Upon adoption of Fresh Start Accounting, the reorganization value derived from the enterprise value associated with the Plans was allocated to the Company’s identifiable tangible and intangible assets and liabilities based on their fair values (except for deferred income taxes), with the remaining excess value allocated to goodwill in accordance with ASC 805 – Business Combinations. Deferred income tax amounts were determined in accordance with ASC 740 – Income Taxes.
References to “Predecessor” relate to the consolidated statements of operations for the period from January 1, 2023 through and including the adjustments from the application of Fresh Start Accounting on August 11, 2023. References to “Successor” relate to the consolidated statements of financial position of the reorganized Company as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2025 and consolidated statements of operations for the period from August 12, 2023 through December 31, 2023 and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 and 2025, and are not comparable to the consolidated financial statements of the Predecessor as indicated by the “black line” division in the financial statements and footnote tables, which emphasizes the lack of comparability between amounts presented. The Company’s financial results for future periods following the application of Fresh Start Accounting will be different from historical trends and the differences may be material.
NOTE 2: CHAPTER 11 CASES AND DUTCH SCHEME PROCEEDINGS. On June 1, 2023, the Company and certain of its U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries (collectively, the Debtors) filed voluntary petitions in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (the U.S. Bankruptcy Court) seeking relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the U.S. Code (the U.S. Bankruptcy Code), which cases were jointly administered (the Chapter 11 Cases). Additionally, on June 1, 2023, Diebold Nixdorf Dutch Holding B.V. (Diebold Dutch) filed a scheme of arrangement relating to certain of the Company’s other subsidiaries (the Dutch Scheme Parties) and commenced voluntary proceedings (the Dutch Scheme Proceedings) under the Dutch Act on Confirmation of Extrajudicial Plans in the District Court of Amsterdam (the Dutch Court). On June 12, 2023, Diebold Dutch also filed a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 15 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court seeking recognition of the Dutch Scheme Proceedings as a foreign main proceedings and related relief (the Chapter 15 Proceedings).
On July 13, 2023, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court confirmed the Debtors’ Second Amended Joint Prepackaged Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization (the U.S. Plan). On August 2, 2023, the Dutch Court entered an order (the Dutch Sanction Order) sanctioning the Netherlands WHOA Plan of Diebold Dutch and the Dutch Scheme Companies (the Dutch Plan) in the Dutch Scheme Proceedings.
On August 11, 2023 (the Effective Date or Fresh Start Reporting Date), the U.S. Plan and Dutch Plan (together, the Plans) became effective in accordance with their terms and the Debtors and the Dutch Scheme Parties emerged from the Chapter 11 Cases and the Dutch Scheme Proceedings. Following filing the notice of the Effective Date with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court, the Chapter 15 Proceedings were closed.
NOTE 3: EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE. During the Predecessor Period, the Company’s participating securities included restricted stock units (RSUs), director deferred shares and shares that were vested but deferred by employees. The Company calculated basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share under both the treasury stock method and the two-class method. For the Successor Period the years ending December 31, 2025 and 2024 and the period from August 12, 2023 through December 31, 2023 and the Predecessor Period of the period from January 1, 2023 through August 11, 2023, there were no differences in the earnings (loss) per share amounts calculated using the two methods. Accordingly, the treasury stock method is disclosed below; however, because the Company was in a net loss position for the year ended December 31, 2024, dilutive shares are excluded from the shares used in the computation of diluted loss per share. The following table represents amounts used in computing earnings (loss) per share and the effect on the weighted-average number of shares of dilutive potential common stock:
| Successor · Predecessor | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Year ended December 31, · Period from 08/12/2023 through 12/31/2023 · Period from 01/01/2023 through 08/11/2023 | ||||
| 2025 · 2024 | ||||
| Earnings used in basic and diluted earnings per share | ||||
| Net income (loss) | $97.5 | $(14.5) | $14.7 | $1,361.9 |
| Net income (loss) income attributable to noncontrolling interests | 2.9 | 2.0 | 1.3 | (0.8) |
| Net income (loss) attributable to Diebold Nixdorf | $94.6 | $(16.5) | $13.4 | $1,362.7 |
| Weighted-average common shares in basic earnings (loss) per share | 36.8 | 37.6 | 37.6 | 79.7 |
| Effect of dilutive shares (1) | 0.4 | — | — | 1.7 |
| Weighted-average number of shares used in diluted earnings (loss) per share | 37.2 | 37.6 | 37.6 | 81.4 |
| Net income (loss) attributable to Diebold Nixdorf | ||||
| Basic earnings per share | $2.57 | $(0.44) | $0.36 | $17.10 |
| Diluted earnings (loss) per share | $2.54 | $(0.44) | $0.36 | $16.74 |
| Anti-dilutive shares | ||||
| Anti-dilutive shares not used in calculating diluted weighted-average shares | 0.1 | 1.1 | — | 2.1 |
(1)Shares of 0.1 for the year ended December 31, 2024 are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share because the effects are anti-dilutive due to the net loss position.
NOTE 4: SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION. The Company recognizes costs resulting from all share-based payment transactions based on the fair value of the award as of the grant date. Awards are valued at fair value and compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite periods of each award. To cover the exercise and/or vesting of its share-based payments, the Company uses a combination of new shares from its authorized, unissued share pool and its treasury shares. On the Effective Date, the then existing common shares of the Predecessor were canceled and new common stock of the Successor was issued. Accordingly, the existing share-based compensation awards issued pursuant to the 2017 Equity and Performance Incentive Plan were also canceled, which resulted in the recognition of any previously unamortized expense related to the canceled awards on the date of cancellation. Pursuant to the U.S. Plan, the reorganized Company adopted a new management incentive plan. In the Successor Periods stock options and RSUs were issued to officers and other management employees under the Company’s 2023 Plan. The number of shares of common stock that may be issued pursuant to the 2023 Equity and Incentive Plan (the 2023 Plan) was 2.4, of which 0.6 shares were available for issuance at December 31, 2025. The following table summarizes the components of the Company’s employee and non-employee directors share-based compensation programs recognized as selling and administrative expense:
| Successor · Predecessor | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|

(1)Unrecognized compensation costs related to unvested stock option awards as of December 31, 2025 was $6.1, which will be amortized over a weighted average period of 1.7 years.
(2)Unrecognized compensation costs related to unvested RSU awards as of December 31, 2025 was $14.3, which will be amortized over a weighted average period of 1.4 years.
Stock option awards vest based on the achievement of specified share prices during the over four years. The option exercise prices equal the closing price of the Company’s common shares on the date of grant. During the 2023 Successor Period, stock options were granted to non-employee directors that vest after a period ofone year tofour years, have a term offive years from the issuance date, and have an exercise price of $30.00. No stock options were granted in 2025. RSU awards provide the issuance ofone share of common stock of the Company at no cost to the holder and are granted to both employees and non-employee directors. RSUs either cliff vest afterone year or vest per annum over athree orfour-year period. Non-vested employee RSUs are forfeited upon termination unless the Board of Directors determines otherwise. The table below summarizes the weighted average grant date fair value for stock option and RSU awards:
| Successor · Predecessor | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Year ended December 31, · Period from 08/12/2023 through 12/31/2023 · Period from 01/01/2023 through 08/11/2023 | ||||

| Stock options | $— | $12.41 | $4.73 | $— |
| RSUs | $44.53 | $34.66 | $29.00 | $— |
The estimated fair value of the options granted in the 2024 and 2023 Successor Periods were calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation and Black-Scholes option pricing model, respectively. Key assumptions used in these valuations include risk free rates of 4.19% and 3.94%, dividend yields of—% and—%, expected volatility of 47.16% and 65.00% and expected lives of 3.95 years and 3.75 years for the Successor Periods of the year ended December 31, 2024 and the period from August 12, 2023 through December 31, 2023, respectively. Stock option and RSU awards outstanding and exercisable as of December 31, 2025, and changes during the period were as follows:
| Stock options · RSUs | |||||||||

These awards vest ratably or cliff vest over athree-year period.
NOTE 5: INCOME TAXES. Deferred taxes are provided on the asset and liability method, whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, operating loss carry-forwards and tax credits. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences and undistributed earnings in certain jurisdictions. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, based upon the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Determination of a valuation allowance involves estimates regarding the timing and amount of the reversal of taxable temporary differences, expected future taxable income and the impact of tax planning strategies. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
The Company operates in numerous taxing jurisdictions and is subject to examination by various federal, state and foreign jurisdictions for various tax periods. Additionally, the Company has retained tax liabilities and the rights to tax refunds in connection with various acquisitions and divestitures of businesses. The Company’s income tax positions are based on research and interpretations of the income tax laws and rulings in each of the jurisdictions in which the Company does business. Due to the subjectivity of interpretations of laws and rulings in each jurisdiction, the differences and interplay in tax laws between those jurisdictions, as well as the inherent uncertainty in estimating the final resolution of complex tax audit matters, the Company’s estimates of income tax liabilities may differ from actual payments or assessments.
The Company assesses its position with regard to tax exposures and records liabilities for these uncertain tax positions and any related interest and penalties, when the tax benefit is not more likely than not realizable. The Company has recorded an accrual that reflects the recognition and measurement process for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Additional future income tax expense or benefit may be recognized once the positions are effectively settled.

The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2025 was 19.3%. The effective rate differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate due to variations in the jurisdictional mix of earnings, U.S. tax on foreign income, withholding taxes, and adjustments to valuation allowances and unrecognized tax benefits.
The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2024 was 135.9%. The effective rate differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate due to variations in the geographical mix of earnings, non-deductible expenses, U.S. tax on foreign income, and withholding taxes.
The effective tax rate for the period from August 12, 2023 through December 31, 2023 was 326.7%. Significant differences from the U.S. federal statutory rate included non-deductible expenses, U.S. tax on foreign income, withholding taxes, and impact of the reorganization, all of which have a significant impact on the effective tax rate due to the minimal pre-tax income.
The effective tax rate for the period from January 1 to August 11, 2023 was 6.2%. The effective tax rate differed compared to the U.S. federal statutory rate due to the tax impacts of reorganization and fresh-start adjustments, including adjustments to the Company's valuation allowance and permanent differences.
The Company recognizes the benefit of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in its tax returns in the consolidated financial statements when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination by authorities. Recognized tax positions are measured at the largest amount of benefit that is more likely than not of being realized upon settlement. Details of the unrecognized tax benefits are as follows:
| Successor · Predecessor | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Year ended December 31, · Period from 08/12/2023 through 12/31/2023 · Period from 01/01/2023 through 08/11/2023 | ||||

| Balance the end of the period | $44.4 | $55.4 | $52.6 | $52.7 |
Of the Company's $44.4 unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2025, if recognized, $4.4 would affect the Company's effective tax rate. The remaining $40.0 relates to a prior year tax return position, which if recognized, would be offset by changes in valuation allowances and have no effect on the Company's effective tax rate.
The Company classifies interest expense and penalties related to the underpayment of income taxes in the consolidated financial statements as income tax expense. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits totaled $0.4 and $0.9, respectively.
Tax years prior to 2019, as well as 2021, are closed by statute for U.S. federal tax purposes. The Company is subject to tax examination in various U.S. state jurisdictions for tax years 2016 to the present. In addition, the Company is subject to a German tax audit for tax years 2021-2022, and other various foreign jurisdictions for tax years 2013 to the present.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had domestic and international net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards of $491.7, resulting in an NOL deferred tax asset of $93.6. Of these NOL carryforwards, $222.9 expire at various times between 2026 and 2046 and $268.8 does not expire.
The Company recorded a valuation allowance to reflect the estimated amount of certain U.S., foreign and state deferred tax assets that, more likely than not, will not be realized. The net change in total valuation allowance for the years ended the December 31, 2025 and 2024 were decreases of $36.1 and $20.2, respectively. The 2025 valuation allowance decrease was driven primarily by utilization of foreign net operating losses and certain valuation allowance releases. Of the total 2025 net decrease of $36.1, the Company recorded $40.9 decrease to tax benefit, approximately $4.8 increase was recorded to stockholder’s equity.
For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, provisions were made for foreign withholding taxes and estimated foreign income taxes which may be incurred upon the remittance of certain undistributed earnings in foreign subsidiaries and foreign unconsolidated affiliates. Provisions have not been made for income taxes on undistributed earnings at December 31, 2025 in foreign subsidiaries and corporate joint ventures that were deemed permanently reinvested. Determination of the amount of unrecognized deferred income tax liabilities on these earnings is not practicable because such liability, if any, depends on certain circumstances existing if and when remittance occurs. A deferred tax liability will be recognized if and when the Company no longer plans to permanently reinvest these undistributed earnings.
The amount of cash taxes paid by the Company were as follows:
| 2025 | |
|---|---|
| U.S. federal | $2.3 |
| U.S. state and local | 1.7 |

NOTE 7: PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT AND OPERATING LEASES. Property, plant and equipment and long-lived assets are recorded at historical cost, including interest where applicable. Impairment of property, plant and equipment and long-lived assets is recognized when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. If the expected future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized at that time to reduce the asset to the lower of its fair value or its net book value.

NOTE 8: GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS. The Company tests for impairment of all existing goodwill at least annually as of October 1, or more frequently, if necessary. If the Company's qualitative assessment indicates that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, a quantitative impairment test is used to identify potential goodwill impairment and measure the amount of any impairment loss to be recognized. The techniques used in the Company's assessments incorporate a number of assumptions and accounting estimates that the Company believes to be reasonable and to reflect market conditions at the assessment date. Changes in assumptions and estimates after the assessment date may lead to an outcome where impairment charges would be required in future periods. Specifically, actual results may vary from the Company’s forecasts and such variations may be material and unfavorable, thereby triggering the need for future impairment tests where the conclusions may differ in reflection of prevailing market conditions. We performed quantitative and qualitative assessments as of October 1, 2024 and 2025, respectively, and no impairment resulted for our Banking and Retail reporting units. As part of this analysis, we evaluated factors including, but not limited to, our market capitalization and stock price performance, macro-economic conditions, market and industry conditions, cost factors, the competitive environment, and the operational stability and overall financial performance of the reporting units. The assessment indicated that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the Banking and Retail reporting units exceeded their respective carrying values. In the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company concluded that no events or changes in circumstances resulted in a situation that would more likely than not reduce the carrying value of our Banking and Retail reporting units. The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill are as follows:
| Banking | Retail | Total | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Goodwill balance at January 1, 2024 | $468.1 | $144.2 | $612.3 |
| Currency translation adjustment | (19.7) | (6.2) | (25.9) |
| Balance at December 31, 2024 | $448.4 | $138.0 | $586.4 |
| Currency translation adjustment | 42.5 | 13.5 | 56.0 |
| Balance at December 31, 2025 | $490.9 | $151.5 | $642.4 |
Intangible Assets. Where applicable, intangible assets are stated at cost and, if applicable, are amortized ratably over the relevant contract period or the estimated life of the assets. Fees to renew or extend the term of the Company’s intangible assets are expensed when incurred. The following summarizes information on intangible assets by major category:

| Customer relationships and other intangibles | $1,024.4 | $(232.0) | $792.4 | $909.7 | $(131.1) | $778.6 | |
Costs incurred for the development of external-use software that will be sold, leased or otherwise marketed are capitalized when technological feasibility has been established. These costs are included within other assets and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives ranging from three tofive years. Amortization begins when the product is available for general release. Costs capitalized include direct labor and related overhead costs. Costs incurred prior to technological feasibility or after general release are expensed as incurred. The Company performs periodic reviews to ensure that unamortized program costs remain recoverable from future revenue. If future revenue does not support the unamortized program costs, the amount by which the unamortized capitalized cost of a software product exceeds the net realizable value is impaired. The following table identifies the activity relating to total capitalized software development:

2024 Refinancing Activities.
Senior Secured Notes Due 2030 (2030 Senior Secured Notes). On December 18, 2024, the Company issued $950.0 in aggregate principal amount of 7.75% Senior Secured Notes due 2030 to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933. The 2030 Senior Secured Notes were issued at par.
The 2030 Senior Secured Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of December 18, 2024 (Indenture), among the Company, as issuer, the subsidiaries of the Company named therein as guarantors, and Regions Bank, as trustee and notes collateral agent.
The 2030 Senior Secured Notes are the senior secured obligations of the Company and are guaranteed, on a senior secured basis, jointly and severally, by (i) as of the issue date of the 2030 Senior Secured Notes, each of the Company’s subsidiaries that is a borrower under or guarantees the obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below) and (ii) following the issue date of the 2030 Senior Secured Notes, any of the Company’s existing or future wholly owned domestic subsidiaries (other than certain excluded subsidiaries) that is a borrower under or guarantees the obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility or incurs or guarantees certain capital markets indebtedness (Guarantors). Additionally, the 2030 Senior Secured Notes and the related guarantees are secured by first-priority liens on substantially all of the tangible and intangible assets of the Company and the Guarantors, in each case subject to certain exclusions and permitted liens, which collateral also secures, on a pari passu basis, the Revolving Credit Facility.
The 2030 Senior Secured Notes bear interest at the rate of 7.75% per annum, which accrues from December 18, 2024 and is payable in arrears on March 31 and September 30 of each year, commencing on March 31, 2025. The 2030 Senior Secured Notes mature on March 31, 2030, unless earlier redeemed or repurchased, and are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture.
The Company may redeem some or all of the 2030 Senior Secured Notes at the redemption prices and term specified in the Indenture. If the Company or any of its restricted subsidiaries sells certain of its assets or if the Company experiences specific kinds of changes of control and a ratings event, then the Company must offer to repurchase the 2030 Senior Secured Notes on the terms set forth in the Indenture.
The Indenture contains certain customary covenants that, among other things, limit the Company’s and its restricted subsidiaries’ ability to incur indebtedness, pay dividends, repurchase or redeem capital stock or make other restricted payments, make certain investments, incur liens, sell assets, enter into restrictions affecting the ability of restricted subsidiaries that are non-Guarantors to make distributions, loans or advances or transfer assets to the Company or the Guarantors, enter into transactions with their affiliates, designate restricted subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries, merge or consolidate with other persons or transfer all or substantially all of their assets.
Revolving Credit Agreement. On December 18, 2024, the Company entered into a new credit agreement (Credit Agreement), with certain financial institutions as lenders and Goldman Sachs Bank USA as administrative agent and collateral agent, providing for, among other things, a new $310.0 revolving credit facility maturing on December 18, 2029 (the Revolving Credit Facility). Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at an adjusted secured overnight financing rate plus a margin of 2.75% to 3.50% per annum or an adjusted base rate plus a margin of 1.75% to 2.50% per annum, in each case based on the consolidated first lien debt ratio of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries. The Company may repay the loans under the Revolving Credit Facility at any time. Amounts borrowed and repaid under the Revolving Credit Facility may be reborrowed. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, no amounts were outstanding on the Revolving Credit Facility. The obligations of the Company under the Revolving Credit Facility are guaranteed by the Guarantors. The Revolving Credit Facility and related guarantees are secured by first-priority liens on substantially all of the tangible and intangible assets of the Company and the Guarantors, in each case subject to certain exclusions and permitted liens, which collateral also secures, on a pari passu basis, the 2030 Senior Secured Notes. The Revolving Credit Facility includes conditions precedent, representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default that are customary for financings of this type and size.
December 2024 Refinancing. On December 18, 2024, the Company borrowed $70.0 under the Revolving Credit Facility. Proceeds from borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, along with proceeds from the issuance of the 2030 Senior Secured Notes and cash on hand were used to (i) to repurchase all of the term loans under the senior secured term loan facility that we entered into in connection with our emergence from bankruptcy in August 2023 (Exit Facility), (ii) repay all of the borrowings outstanding under the prior revolving credit facility, and (iii) pay all related premiums, fees, and expenses (collectively, the December 2024 Refinancing).
The December 2024 Refinancing was accounted for as a partial modification, partial extinguishment and new debt issuance at the syndicated lender level. The Company has accounted for $136.6 of the loan principal under the Exit Facility as an extinguishment of debt and $478.8 of the loan principal under the 2030 Senior Secured Notes as issuance of new debt. The remaining loan principal on the Exit Facility was treated as a loan modification. As a result, the Company recorded a loss on the extinguishment of debt in the amount of $7.1. This amount is comprised of the write-off of prior unamortized costs related to the prior revolving credit facility, third-party costs expensed for modified lenders, and penalty fees and lender fees for extinguished lenders of the Exit Facility.
In connection with the December 2024 Refinancing, the Company capitalized $32.2 of lender and third-party costs related to the 2030 Senior Secured Notes, including $0.7 of prior unamortized costs related to the Exit Facility.
The Company incurred $3.9 in lender and third-party fees related to the Revolving Credit Facility. Based on the results of the revolver capacity test, the Company capitalized $3.6 of these issuance costs and continued to defer $2.9 of prior unamortized costs from the Prior Revolving Credit Facility.

| Interest RateIndex and Margin | Maturity/Termination Dates | Initial Term (Years) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2030 Senior Secured Notes | 7.75% | March 2030 | 5.25 |

NOTE 13: BENEFIT PLANS. Qualified Retirement Benefits. The Company has a qualified retirement plan covering certain U.S. employees that has been closed to new participants since 2003 and frozen since December 2013. The Company has a number of non-U.S. defined benefit plans covering eligible employees located predominately in Europe, the most significant of which are German plans. Benefits for these plans are based primarily on each employee's salary. The obligations in Germany consist of employer funded pension plans and deferred compensation plans. With the employer funded pension plans each beneficiary receives, depending on individual pay-scale grouping, contractual classification, or income level, different yearly contributions. The contribution is multiplied by an age factor appropriate to the respective pension plan and credited to the individual retirement account of the employee. The retirement accounts may be used up at retirement by a one-time lump-sum payout. The Company has other defined benefit plans outside the United States, which have not been mentioned here due to materiality.
Supplemental Executive Retirement Benefits. The Company has non-qualified pension plans in the United States to provide supplemental retirement benefits to certain officers, which have also been frozen since December 2013. Benefits are payable at retirement based upon a percentage of the participant’s compensation, as defined.
Other Benefits. In addition to providing retirement benefits, the Company provides post-retirement healthcare and life insurance benefits (referred to as other benefits) for certain retired employees. Retired eligible employees in the United States may be entitled to these benefits based upon years of service with the Company, age at retirement and collective bargaining agreements. There are no plan assets and the Company funds the benefits as the claims are paid. The post-retirement benefit obligation was determined by application of the terms of medical and life insurance plans together with relevant actuarial assumptions and healthcare cost trend rates. The following tables set forth the change in benefit obligation, change in plan assets, funded status, consolidated statement of financial position presentation and net periodic benefit cost for the Company’s defined benefit pension plans and other benefits at and for the years ended December 31:

Assumptions used in calculations. Annual net periodic expense and benefit liabilities under the Company’s defined benefit plans are determined on an actuarial basis. Assumptions used in the actuarial calculations have a significant impact on plan obligations and expense. The Company periodically reviews the actual experience compared with the more significant assumptions used and make adjustments to the assumptions, if warranted. We believe these assumptions are appropriate; however, actual results differing from these assumptions could have a material impact on our financial condition. The discount rate is determined by analyzing the average return of high-quality (i.e., AA-rated), fixed-income investments and the year-over-year comparison of certain widely used benchmark indices as of the measurement date. The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets is determined using the plans’ current asset allocation and their expected long term rates of return. The Company also considers information provided by its investment consultant, a survey of other companies using a December 31 measurement date and the Company’s historical asset performance in determining the expected long-term rate of return. The rate of compensation increase assumptions reflects the Company’s long-term actual experience and future and near-term outlook. Pension benefits are funded through deposits with trustees. Other post-retirement benefits are not funded and the Company’s policy is to pay these benefits as they become due.
The Company recognizes the funded status of each of its plans in the consolidated statement of financial position. Amortization of unrecognized net gain or loss resulting from experience different from that assumed and from changes in assumptions (excluding asset gains and losses not yet reflected in market-related value) is included as a component of net periodic benefit cost for a year if, as of the beginning of the year, that unrecognized net gain or loss exceeds five percent of the greater of the projected benefit obligation or the market-related value of plan assets. If amortization is required, the amortization is that excess divided by the average remaining service period of participating employees expected to receive benefits under the plan.
The Company records a curtailment when an event occurs that significantly reduces the expected years of future service or eliminates the accrual of defined benefits for the future services of a significant number of employees. A curtailment gain is recorded when the employees who are entitled to the benefits terminate their employment; a curtailment loss is recorded when it becomes probable a loss will occur. Upon a settlement, the Company recognizes the proportionate amount of the unamortized gains and losses if the cost of all settlements during the year exceeds the interest component of net periodic cost for the affected plan.
During 2021, the Society of Actuaries released new mortality tables (Pri-2012) and projection scales resulting from recent studies measuring mortality rates for various groups of individuals. As of December 31, 2025, the Company used the Pri-2012 mortality tables and the MP-2021 mortality projection scales. The Pri-2012 mortality tables were also used in 2024.

The healthcare trend rates for the post-employment benefits plans in the United States are reviewed based upon the results of actual claims experience. The Company used initial healthcare cost trends of 6.4% and 6.6% in the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, with an ultimate trend rate of 4.3% reached in 2047. Assumed healthcare cost trend rates have a modest effect on the amounts reported for the healthcare plans.
Composition of plan assets. The Company has a pension investment policy in the United States designed to achieve an adequate funded status based on expected benefit payouts and to establish an asset allocation that will meet or exceed the return assumption while maintaining a prudent level of risk. The plan's target asset allocation adjusts based on the plan's funded status. As the funded status improves, the debt security target allocation will increase. The Company utilizes the services of an outside consultant in performing asset / liability modeling, setting appropriate asset allocation targets along with selecting and monitoring professional investment managers.
The U.S. plan assets are invested in equity and fixed income securities, alternative assets and cash. Within the equities asset class, the investment policy provides for investments in a broad range of publicly-traded securities including both domestic and international stocks diversified by value, growth and cap size. Within the fixed income asset class, the investment policy provides for investments in a broad range of publicly-traded debt securities with a substantial portion allocated to a long duration strategy in order to partially offset interest rate risk relative to the plans’ liabilities. The alternative asset class includes investments in diversified strategies with a stable and proven track record and low correlation to the United States stock market. Several plans outside of the U.S. are also invested in various assets, under various investment policies in compliance with local funding regulations.
The following table summarizes the Company’s target allocation for these asset classes in 2026, which are readjusted at least quarterly within a defined range for the United States, and the Company’s actual pension plan asset allocation as of December 31, 2025 and 2024:
| U.S. Plans · Non-U.S. Plans | ||||||

The Company's basic match is 50% on the first 6% of a participant's qualified contributions, subject to IRS limits.
NOTE 14: FINANCE LEASES. Under certain circumstances, the Company provides financing arrangements to customers that are largely classified and accounted for as sales-type leases. The Company records interest income and any fees or costs related to financing receivables using the effective interest method over the term of the lease. Future minimum payments due from customers under finance lease receivables as of December 31, 2025 are as follows:
| Future minimum payments receivable | 2026 | 2027 | 2028 | 2029 | 2030 | Thereafter | Total |

NOTE 15: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE. The following table provides information about assets and liabilities not carried at fair value and excludes asset and liabilities without readily determinable fair value.
| December 31, 2025 · December 31, 2024 | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Carrying amount · Estimated fair value · Carrying amount (net) · Estimated fair value | |||||
| Liabilities | Borrowings (Note 11) | $970.7 | $1,030.1 | $966.0 | $987.4 |
Assets and liabilities that are reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements at fair value are not included in the above disclosures; such items include short- and long-term investment, deferred compensation and derivative financial instruments. Substantially all of these assets are considered to be Level 1 and substantially all of the Company's liabilities' fair value are considered Level 2, with the exception of derivative instruments which are considered Level 2 for both assets and liabilities. Refer to Note 1 for further details of fair value related to investments.
Derivatives and Hedging. The Company is exposed to various market risks such as changes in foreign currency rates. The Company uses derivatives to manage risks related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates arising from international trade, foreign currency monetary asset and liability balances and investments in foreign subsidiaries. The Company's policy requires that derivatives are used solely for managing risks and not for speculative purposes. The Company manages counterparty credit risk by limiting acceptable counterparties to major financial institutions with investment grade credit ratings, by limiting the amount of credit exposure to individual counterparties, and by actively monitoring counterparty credit ratings and the amount of individual credit exposure. The Company also employs master netting arrangements that limit the risk of counterparty non-payment on a particular settlement date to the net gain that would have otherwise been received from the counterparty. Although not completely eliminated, the Company does not consider the risk of counterparty default to be significant as a result of these protections.
Net Investment Hedges. The Company designates foreign currency forwards to hedge a portion of foreign investments in its EUR and BRL denominated operations. As of December 31, 2025, this included 21 EUR-USD and 12 BRL-USD foreign currency forward instruments. The Company uses the forward method to assess hedge effectiveness for its net investment hedges. Gains and losses on these instruments are initially recognized in our Statement of Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) and are reclassified out of AOCI into gain or loss on sale of investment when the hedged net investment is either sold or substantially liquidated. Cash flows from the net investment hedges are classified as Certain other assets and liabilities on the Statement of Cash Flows.
Non-Designated Hedges. The Company uses non-designated foreign exchange forward contracts with maturities of up to 12 months to mitigate the impact of currency fluctuations on foreign currency asset and liability balances. Forward-based gains/losses are classified as foreign exchange gain (loss), net on the Statement of Earnings. Cash flows from the foreign exchange forward contracts are classified as Certain other assets and liabilities on the Statement of Cash Flows.
Fair Value of Derivatives. The following table presents the fair value of our derivative instruments and identifies the statement of financial position line items in which these amounts are included. All fair values are presented on a gross basis, consistent with the Company's policy to not elect to net derivative assets and liabilities that are subject to master netting agreements:
| December 31, 2025 | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gross notional · Other current assets · Other current liabilities | |||||
| Designated forward currency exchange contracts1 | $417.3 | $1.0 | $(2.3) | ||
| Non-Designated forward exchange contracts2 | $777.7 | 2.2 | (2.1) | ||
| Net derivatives recognized in statement of financial position | $3.2 | $(4.4) | |||
1 Gains (losses) in our Other comprehensive Income (loss) driven by net investment hedges was $5.9 for the year ended December 31, 2025, respectively.
2 Gains (losses) in our Statement of Earnings (loss) driven by hedges of foreign exchange fluctuation was $2.0 for the year ended December 31, 2025, respectively. These amounts are offset by the remeasurement of the underlying exposure through foreign exchange gain or loss, net on the Statement of Earnings.
NOTE 16: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES. Contractual Obligations. At December 31, 2025, the Company's purchase commitments due within one year were minimal for materials and services through contract manufacturing agreements at negotiated prices. The amounts purchased under these obligations were minimal in 2025. The Company guarantees a fixed cost of certain products used in production to its strategic partners. Variations in the products costs are absorbed by the Company.
Indirect Tax Contingencies. The Company accrues non-income-tax liabilities for indirect tax matters when management believes that a loss is probable and the amounts can be reasonably estimated, while contingent gains are recognized only when realized. In the event any losses are sustained in excess of accruals, they are charged against income. In evaluating indirect tax matters, management takes into consideration factors such as historical experience with matters of similar nature, specific facts and circumstances, and the likelihood of prevailing. Management evaluates and updates accruals as matters progress over time. It is reasonably possible that some of the matters for which accruals have not been established could be decided unfavorably to the Company and could require recognizing future expenditures. Also, statutes of limitations could expire without the Company paying the taxes for matters for which accruals have been established, which could result in the recognition of future gains upon reversal of these accruals at that time. In management’s opinion, the consolidated financial statements would not be materially affected by the outcome of these indirect tax claims and/or proceedings or asserted claims.
A loss contingency is reasonably possible if it has a more than remote but less than probable chance of occurring. Although management believes the Company has valid defenses with respect to its indirect tax positions, it is reasonably possible that a loss could occur in excess of the estimated accrual. The Company estimated the aggregate risk at December 31, 2025 to be up to $52.5 for its material indirect tax matters. The aggregate risk related to indirect taxes is adjusted as the applicable statutes of limitations expire.
Legal Contingencies. Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines, and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred. There is no liability recorded for matters in which the liability is not probable and reasonably estimable. These estimates are based upon an analysis of potential results, assuming a combination of litigation and settlement strategies. If the actual settlement costs, final judgments, or fines, after appeals, differ from the estimates, the future results may be materially impacted. Adjustments to the initial estimates are recorded when a change in the estimate is identified. At December 31, 2025, the Company was a party to several lawsuits that were incurred in the normal course of business, which neither individually nor in the aggregate were considered material by management in relation to the Company’s financial position or results of operations. In management’s opinion, the Company's consolidated financial statements would not be materially affected by the outcome of these legal proceedings, commitments or asserted claims.
Bank Guarantees, Standby Letters of Credit, and Surety Bonds. In the ordinary course of business, the Company may issue performance guarantees on behalf of its subsidiaries to certain customers and other parties. Some of those guarantees may be backed by standby letters of credit, surety bonds, or similar instruments. In general, under the guarantees, the Company would be obligated to perform, or cause performance, over the term of the underlying contract in the event of an unexcused, uncured breach by its subsidiary, or some other specified triggering event, in each case as defined by the applicable guarantee. At December 31, 2025, the maximum future contractual obligations relative to these various guarantees totaled $130.8, of which $24.3 represented standby letters of credit to insurance providers, andno associated liability was recorded. At December 31, 2024, the maximum future payment obligations relative to these various guarantees totaled $90.4, of which $21.9 represented standby letters of credit to insurance providers, andno associated liability was recorded.
Restricted Cash. The following table provides a reconciliation of Cash, cash equivalents and Short-term and Long-term restricted cash reporting within the Company's Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows:
| December 31, 2025 | December 31, 2024 | |
|---|---|---|
| Cash and cash equivalents | $368.9 | $296.2 |
| Bank collateral guarantees | 10.7 | 8.2 |
| Pension collateral guarantees | 7.7 | 6.9 |
| Restricted cash and cash equivalents | 18.4 | 15.1 |
| Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash | $387.3 | $311.3 |
NOTE 17: REVENUE RECOGNITION. Revenue is measured based on consideration specified in a contract with a customer and excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The amount of consideration can vary depending on discounts, rebates, refunds, credits, price concessions, incentives, performance bonuses, penalties, or other similar items contained in the contract with the customer. These variable consideration components represent minimal amounts of net sales. The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a product or service to a customer.
Products. Product revenue is recognized at the point in time that the customer obtains control of the product, which could be upon delivery or upon completion of installation services, depending on contract terms. The Company’s software licenses are functional in nature (the IP has significant stand-alone functionality); as such, the revenue recognition of distinct software license sales is at the point in time that the customer obtains control of the rights granted by the license.
Services. Revenue from professional services is recognized over time, because the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the Company’s performance as the services are performed or when the Company’s performance creates an asset with no alternative use and the Company has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. Generally, revenue will be recognized using an input measure, typically costs incurred. The typical contract length for service is generally one year and is billed and paid in advance except for installations, among others. Services may be sold separately or in bundled packages. For bundled packages, the Company accounts for individual services separately if they are distinct. A distinct service is separately identifiable from other items in the bundled package if a customer can benefit from it on its own or with other resources that are readily available to the customer. The consideration (including any discounts) is allocated between separate services or distinct obligations in a bundle based on their stand-alone selling prices. The stand-alone selling prices are determined based on the prices at which the Company separately sells the products or services. For items that are not sold separately, the Company estimates stand-alone selling prices using the cost plus expected margin approach. Revenue on service contracts is recognized ratably over time, generally using an input measure, as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the Company’s performance as the services are performed. In some circumstances, when services are not included in a term contract and rather billed as they occur, revenue on these billed work services are recognized at a point in time as transfer of control occurs.
The Company's payment terms vary depending on the individual contracts and are generally fixed fee. The Company recognizes advance payments and billings in excess of revenue recognized as deferred revenue. In certain contracts where services are provided prior to billing, the Company recognizes a contract asset within trade receivables and other current assets.
Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction and that are collected by the Company from a customer are excluded from revenue.
The Company recognizes shipping and handling fees billed when products are shipped or delivered to a customer and includes such amounts in net sales. Although infrequent, shipping and handling associated with outbound freight after control over a product has transferred to a customer is not a separate performance obligation, rather it is accounted for as a fulfillment cost. Third-party freight payments are recorded in cost of sales.
The Company includes warranties in connection with certain contracts with customers, which are not considered to be separate performance obligations. The Company provides its customers a manufacturer’s warranty, and records, at the time of the sale, a corresponding estimated liability for potential warranty costs. For additional information on product warranty refer to Note 9. The Company also has extended warranty and service contracts available for its customers, which are recognized as separate performance obligations. Revenue is recognized on these contracts ratably as the Company has a stand-ready obligation to provide services when or as needed by the customer.
Refer to Note 18 for additional information regarding the Company's reportable operating segments, disaggregation of net sales by segments and product solutions, net sales by geographical region and disaggregation by timing of revenue recognition.
Timing of revenue recognition. A performance obligation is a contractual promise to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. A contract's transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and is recognized as revenue when (point in time) or as (over time) the performance obligation is satisfied. The following table represents the percentage of revenue recognized either at a point in time or over the periods presented:
| 2025 | 2024 | |
|---|---|---|
| Timing of revenue recognition | ||
| Products transferred at a point in time | 43% | 43% |
| Products and services transferred over time | 57% | 57% |
| Net sales | 100% | 100% |
Contract balances. The following table provides information about receivables and deferred revenue, which represent contract liabilities from contracts with customers:

| Balance at January 1 | $588.5 | $320.7 | $721.8 | $376.2 |
| Balance at December 31 | $609.4 | $325.8 | $588.5 | $320.7 |
Contract assets of the Company primarily relate to the Company's rights to consideration for goods shipped and services provided but not contractually billable at the reporting date. Contract assets are minimal for the periods presented. The amount of revenue recognized in 2025 and 2024 from performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous periods, mainly due to the changes in the estimate of variable consideration and contract modifications was de minimis.
As of January 1, 2025, the Company had $320.7 of unrecognized deferred revenue constituting the remaining performance obligations that were either unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied. During 2025, the Company recognized revenue of $230.9 related to the Company's deferred revenue balance at January 1, 2025.
The contract assets are reclassified into the receivables balance when the rights to receive payment become unconditional. Contract liabilities represent amounts billed to or collected from customers for services that have not yet been rendered or products not yet delivered. In addition, contract liabilities are recorded as advanced payments for products and other deliverables that are billed to and collected from customers prior to revenue being recognizable.
Transaction price and variable consideration. The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties. This consideration can include fixed and variable amounts and is determined at contract inception and updated each reporting period for any changes in circumstances. The transaction price also considers variable consideration, time value of money and the measurement of any non-cash consideration, all of which are estimated at contract inception and updated at each reporting date for any changes in circumstances. Generally, the Company applies the expected value method when assessing variable consideration including returns and refunds.
The Company also applies the ‘as invoiced’ practical expedient related to performance obligations satisfied over time, which permits the Company to recognize revenue in the amount to which it has a right to invoice the customer if that amount corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the Company’s performance completed to date. Service revenues that are recognized ratably are primarily contracts that include first and second line maintenance. Service revenues that are recognized using input measures include primarily preventative maintenance. The ‘as invoiced’ practical expedient relates to the on-demand service revenue which is generally not under contract.
Cost to obtain and cost to fulfill a contract. The Company has minimal cost to obtain or fulfill contracts for customers for the periods presented. The Company applies the practical expedient and recognizes the incremental costs of obtaining contracts as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the assets that the Company otherwise would have recognized is one year or less. The costs that are not capitalized are included in cost of sales. The costs related to contracts with greater than a one-year term are immaterial and continue to be recognized in cost of sales.
NOTE 18: SEGMENT INFORMATION. The Company's reportable segment information below directly aligns with how the Chief Executive Officer, who is also chief operating decision maker (CODM), regularly reviews results to make decisions, allocate resources, and assess performance. Revenue, costs, operating expenses and operating profit (loss), as disclosed herein, is consistent with the segment information used by the CODM and does not include corporate charges, asset impairment, restructuring and other saving initiative expenses, or other non-routine, unusual or infrequently occurring items, as the CODM does not regularly review and use such financial measures to make decisions, allocate resources and assess performance.
Segment revenue and cost of sales are from sales to external customers. Segment operating profit is defined as segment gross profit less expenses directly attributable to the segments. The Company does not allocate to its segments certain operating expenses which are managed at the headquarters level; that are not used in the management of the segments, not segment-specific, and impractical to allocate. Segment operating profit reconciles to consolidated income before income taxes by deducting items that are not attributed to the segments and which are managed independently of segment results. Assets are not allocated to segments, and thus are not included in the assessment of segment performance, and consequently, we do not disclose total assets and depreciation and amortization expense by reportable operating segment. The following tables present information regarding the Company’s segment performance and provide a reconciliation between segment operating profit and the consolidated Income before taxes:
