Recent announcement
Current report
In January 2026, we announced that we entered into definitive agreements with Gentherm Incorporated (“Gentherm”), whereby we will spin-off and simultaneously combine our Performance Technologies segment businesses with Gentherm in a Reverse Morris Trust transaction. Gentherm, a Michigan-based corporation, is a global leader of innovative thermal management and pneumatic comfort technologies. The transaction is intended to establish Gentherm as a scaled leader in thermal management. We will retain our Climate Solutions segment businesses, creating a pure-play climate solutions company focused on the data center and commercial HVAC and refrigeration markets.
Current report
Under the terms of the agreement, at the time of the spin-off of our Performance Technologies segment businesses, our shareholders will receive newly-issued Gentherm stock, representing ownership of approximately 40 percent of the combined company. In addition, immediately prior to transaction closing, we will receive cash proceeds of $210.0 million, subject to adjustment. In total, the transaction value is approximately $1.0 billion. We anticipate this transaction will close by the end of calendar 2026, subject to approval by Gentherm’s shareholders and other closing conditions, including regulatory approvals. Under the Reverse Morris Trust structure, the transaction is intended to be generally tax-free for U.S. federal income tax purposes for the Company and our shareholders. To facilitate this transaction, we expect to incur significant fees for transaction advisory, legal, accounting, tax and other professional services. While we are in the early phases of the process, we currently estimate that these fees and other costs directly related to the transaction will total approximately $30.0 million to $40.0 million.

Previous wording
Second quarter net sales of $738.9 million were $80.9 million, or 12 percent, higher than the second quarter of the prior year, primarily due to $88.0 million of higher sales in our Climate Solutions segment, driven by sales growth to hyperscale and colocation data center customers in North America and $28.1 million of incremental sales from the acquired L.B. White, Climate by Design, and AbsolutAire businesses. The higher sales in the Climate Solutions segment were partially offset by lower sales in our Performance Technologies segment, which decreased $11.2 million, largely due to market weakness. Foreign currency exchange rates favorably impacted sales by $9.4 million.
Current wording
Third quarter net sales of $805.0 million were $188.2 million, or 31 percent, higher than the third quarter of the prior year, primarily due to $183.8 million of higher sales in our Climate Solutions segment, driven by sales growth to hyperscale and colocation data center customers in North America and Europe and $42.8 million of incremental sales from the acquired L.B. White, Climate by Design, and AbsolutAire businesses. Foreign currency exchange rates favorably impacted sales by $16.3 million.
Previous wording
Second quarter cost of sales increased $81.6 million, or 17 percent, primarily due to higher sales volume in the Climate Solutions segment and a $7.8 million unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange rates. In addition, cost of sales was unfavorably impacted by temporary operating inefficiencies in the Climate Solutions segment, largely due to the rapid expansion of manufacturing capacity for data center products, and higher raw material costs, which increased approximately $5.0 million. These drivers, which increased cost of sales, were partially offset by lower sales volume and improved operating efficiencies in the Performance Technologies segment. As a percentage of sales, cost of sales increased 290 basis points to 77.7 percent, primarily due to the absence of commercial pricing settlements and the recognition of sales tax credits in Brazil, both of which favorably impacted the prior year, higher material costs, and temporary operating inefficiencies.
Current wording
Third quarter cost of sales increased $151.7 million, or 32 percent, primarily due to higher sales volume in the Climate Solutions segment and a $12.9 million unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange rates. In addition, cost of sales was unfavorably impacted by temporary operating inefficiencies in the Climate Solutions segment, largely due to the rapid expansion of manufacturing capacity for data center products. As a percentage of sales, cost of sales increased 120 basis points to 76.9 percent, primarily due to the temporary operating inefficiencies.
Previous wording
As a result of higher sales and higher cost of sales as a percentage of sales, second quarter gross profit decreased $0.7 million and gross margin declined 290 basis points to 22.3 percent.
Current wording
As a result of higher sales and higher cost of sales as a percentage of sales, third quarter gross profit increased $36.5 million and gross margin declined 120 basis points to 23.1 percent.
Previous wording
Second quarter SG&A expenses decreased $1.6 million, or 2 percent. As a percentage of sales, SG&A expenses decreased by 160 basis points. The decrease in SG&A expenses was driven by lower compensation-related expenses in the Performance Technologies segment, which included the benefits of previous restructuring actions, and lower incentive compensation expense. These drivers, which decreased SG&A, were partially offset by higher compensation-related expenses in the Climate Solutions segment, supporting the segment’s growth and including incremental expenses from the acquired businesses. Other costs directly associated with acquisition and integration activities increased $2.3 million.
Current wording
Third quarter SG&A expenses increased $7.3 million, or 9 percent. As a percentage of sales, SG&A expenses decreased by 220 basis points. The increase in SG&A expenses was driven by higher compensation-related expenses in the Climate Solutions segment, supporting the segment’s growth and including incremental expenses from the acquired businesses, partially offset by lower compensation-related expenses in the Performance Technologies segment, which included the benefits of previous restructuring actions. Other costs directly associated with acquisition and disposition activities increased $2.3 million, primarily driven by costs for legal and other professional services in connection with the proposed Reverse Morris Trust transaction with Gentherm.
Previous wording
Interest expense during the second quarter of fiscal 2026 increased $0.9 million compared with the second quarter of fiscal 2025, primarily due to higher average outstanding borrowings on our revolving credit facility, partially offset by favorable changes in interest rates.
Current wording

The provision for income taxes was $18.9 million and $20.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 and 2025, respectively. The $1.1 million decrease included favorable changes in the mix and amount of foreign and U.S. earnings, as compared with the same period in the prior year. The decrease in the provision for income taxes for fiscal 2026 was partially offset by impacts associated with provisions of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) on state deferred taxes and the utilization of foreign tax credits, which increased the income tax provision during the second quarter of fiscal 2026 by $3.1 million. The Company is continuing to assess provisions of the OBBBA that are expected to impact future periods.
Current wording
The provision for income taxes of $8.3 million decreased $4.7 million from the third quarter of fiscal 2025. The impact of higher operating earnings in fiscal 2026, which caused an increase in the income tax provision, was more than offset by a $13.1 million net income tax benefit related to the $116.1 million pension termination charge recorded in the third quarter of fiscal 2026. The $13.1 million net income tax benefit from the pension termination charge included a $16.8 million income tax detriment resulting from disproportionate income tax effects in accumulated other comprehensive loss. In addition, impacts associated with provisions of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) on state deferred taxes and the utilization of foreign tax credits increased the income tax provision during the third quarter of fiscal 2026 by $0.6 million.

Previous wording
Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended September 30, 2025 was $29.1 million, which represents a $68.7 million decrease compared with the same period in the prior year. This decrease in operating cash flow was primarily due to unfavorable net changes in working capital, as compared with the same period in the prior year. The unfavorable changes in working capital include the impact of higher inventory levels and higher payments for incentive compensation. Our Climate Solutions segment has increased inventory levels in fiscal 2026, primarily to support growing customer demand for data center products in the U.S. These drivers were partially offset by the favorable impact of increases in accounts payable, which largely results from the higher inventory levels.
Current wording
Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended December 31, 2025 was $53.8 million, which represents a $104.7 million decrease compared with the same period in the prior year.
