Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

  1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows, and changes in shareholders' equity of Sensata Technologies Holding plc, a public limited company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales, and its consolidated subsidiaries, collectively referred to as the "Company," "Sensata," "we," "our," or "us."

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States ("U.S.") generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, these interim financial statements do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying interim financial information reflects all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the interim period results. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on February 28, 2025 (the "2024 Annual Report").

We present financial information for two reportable segments, Performance Sensing ("PS") and Sensing Solutions ("SS"). Additionally, our business strategy involves leveraging new and emerging technologies, which complement our existing product offerings, and we refer to these trends collectively as “megatrends.” Our operating segments’ performance is primarily evaluated based on segment operating income. In the three months ended March 31, 2025, we realigned the definition of segment operating income to include megatrend costs, which were previously excluded from segment operating income and included in corporate and other costs. Prior year amounts in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been recast to reflect this realignment and to conform to current year presentation. Refer to Note 15: Segment Reporting for additional information.

All U.S. dollar ("USD") and share amounts presented, except per share amounts, are stated in thousands, unless otherwise indicated. Certain prior period amounts have been recast to conform to current year presentation.

  1. New Accounting Standards

In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2023-09, Income taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires (1) consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and (2) disclosure of income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. ASU No. 2023-09 also includes certain other updates to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. ASU No. 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, and should be applied prospectively, with retrospective application also a permitted option. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU No. 2023-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03 Income Statement (Topic 220): Reporting Comprehensive Income, which requires additional disclosure of the nature of expenses included in the income statement as well as disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented in the income statement. ASU No. 2024-03 does not change or remove current expense presentation requirements within the Consolidated Statements of Operations. However, the update requires disclosure, on an annual and interim basis, of disaggregated information about certain income statement expense line items within the notes to the consolidated financial statements. ASU No. 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU No. 2024-03 will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

  1. Restructuring and Other Charges, Net

2H 2024 Plan

In the year ended December 31, 2024, we committed to a plan to reorganize our business (the “2H 2024 Plan”). The 2H 2024 Plan, consisting of involuntary reductions-in-force, site closures, and other cost-savings initiatives, was commenced to adjust our cost structure and business activities to better align with weaker market demand and continued economic uncertainty in many of our end markets and to take active measures to accelerate our margin recovery.

The reductions-in-force, which are subject to the laws and regulations of the countries in which the actions were executed or planned, are expected to impact approximately 240 positions. Over the life of the 2H 2024 Plan, we expect to incur restructuring charges of between $14.2 million and $16.0 million, primarily related to reductions-in-force. The majority of the actions under the 2H 2024 Plan are expected to be completed on or before December 31, 2025. We expect to settle these charges with cash on hand.

Q3 2023 Plan

In the year ended December 31, 2023, we committed to a plan to reorganize our business (the “Q3 2023 Plan”). The Q3 2023 Plan, consisting of voluntary and involuntary reductions-in-force, site closures, and other cost-savings initiatives, was commenced to adjust our cost structure and business activities.

The reductions-in-force, which are subject to the laws and regulations of the countries in which the actions were executed or planned, impacted 505 positions. Over the life of the Q3 2023 Plan, we expect to incur restructuring charges of between $24.8 million and $25.8 million, primarily related to reductions-in-force. The majority of the actions under the Q3 2023 Plan are expected to be completed on or before December 31, 2025. We expect to settle these charges with cash on hand.

  1. Income Taxes

The following table presents the provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024:

For the three months ended
March 31, 2025March 31, 2024
Provision for income taxes$20,722$22,570

The provision for income taxes consists of (1) current tax expense, which relates primarily to our profitable operations in tax jurisdictions with limited or no net operating loss carryforwards and withholding taxes related to management fees, royalties, and the repatriation of foreign earnings; and (2) deferred tax expense (or benefit), which represents adjustments in book-to-tax basis differences primarily related to (a) book versus tax basis in intangible assets, (b) changes in net operating loss carryforwards and tax credits, and (c) changes in withholding taxes on unremitted earnings.

  1. Net Income per Share

Basic and diluted net income per share are calculated by dividing net income by the number of basic and diluted weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding during the period. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 the weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding used to calculate basic and diluted net income per share were as follows:

For the three months ended
March 31, 2025March 31, 2024
Basic weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding148,498150,480
Dilutive effect of unvested restricted securities318441
Diluted weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding148,816150,921

Net income and net income per share are presented in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Certain potential ordinary shares were excluded from our calculation of diluted weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding because either they would have had an anti-dilutive effect on net income per share or they related to equity awards that were contingently issuable for which the contingency had not been satisfied. These potential ordinary shares were as follows:

For the three months ended

Our indebtedness as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 consists of various tranches of senior unsecured notes as shown in the table above. We also have secured credit facilities (the "Senior Secured Credit Facilities") which provide for our $750.0 million revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility") and incremental availability under which additional debt can be issued. Refer to Note 14: Debt of our 2024 Annual Report for additional information related to our indebtedness.

Revolving Credit Facility

As of March 31, 2025, we had $745.8 million available under the Revolving Credit Facility, net of $4.2 million of obligations in respect of outstanding letters of credit issued thereunder. Outstanding letters of credit are issued primarily for the benefit of certain operating activities. As of March 31, 2025, no amounts had been drawn against these outstanding letters of credit.

Accrued Interest

Accrued interest associated with our outstanding debt is included as a component of accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, accrued interest totaled $34.1 million and $55.2 million, respectively.

  1. Commitments and Contingencies

We are regularly involved in a number of claims and litigation matters that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although it is not feasible to predict the outcome of these matters, based upon our experience and current information known to us, we do not expect the outcome of these matters, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, and/or cash flows.

  1. Shareholders' Equity

Purchase of noncontrolling interest in joint venture

In February 2024, we purchased the remaining 50% interest in our joint venture with Dongguan Churod Electronics Co., Ltd. for approximately $79.4 million. Prior to the transaction, we had been consolidating the joint venture. The purchase of the 50% non-controlling interest was accounted for as an equity transaction. No gain or loss was recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The difference between the fair value of the consideration paid and the amount by which the non-controlling interest was adjusted was recognized as a reduction of additional paid in capital recorded in equity.

Cash Dividends

In the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, we paid aggregate cash dividends of $17.9 million and $18.1 million, respectively. On April 21, 2025, we announced that our Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.12 per share, payable on May 28, 2025 to shareholders of record as of May 14, 2025.

Treasury Shares

From time to time, our Board of Directors has authorized various share repurchase programs, which may be modified or terminated by the Board at any time. Under these programs, we may repurchase ordinary shares at such times and in amounts to be determined by our management, based on market conditions, legal requirements, and other corporate considerations, on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, provided that such transactions were completed pursuant to an agreement and with a third party approved by our shareholders at the annual general meeting. Ordinary shares repurchased by us are recognized, measured at cost, and presented as treasury shares on our consolidated balance sheets, resulting in a reduction of shareholders' equity. In September 2023, our Board of Directors authorized a new $500.0 million ordinary share repurchase program (the “September 2023 Program”), which became effective on October 1, 2023.

In the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, we repurchased 3.5 million and 0.3 million ordinary shares, respectively, for $100.5 million and $10.1 million, respectively. All share repurchases in the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 were made under the September 2023 Program. As of March 31, 2025, $302.5 million remained available for repurchase under the September 2023 Program.

(1) Excluding any related debt discounts, premiums, and deferred financing costs.

In addition to the above, we hold certain equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values for which we use the measurement alternative prescribed in FASB ASC Topic 321. Such investments are measured at cost, less any impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we held equity investments under the measurement alternative of $7.2 million and $6.1 million, respectively, which are presented in other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. In the three months ended March 31, 2024, we adjusted the carrying value of one of these equity investments as a result of an observable price change, resulting in a loss of $14.8 million.

Credit Risk Related Contingent Features

We have agreements with our derivative counterparties that contain a provision whereby if we default on our indebtedness and repayment of the indebtedness has been accelerated by the lender, then we could also be declared in default on our derivative obligations.

As of March 31, 2025, the termination value of outstanding derivatives in a liability position, excluding any adjustment for non-performance risk, was $25.3 million. As of March 31, 2025, we hadnot posted any cash collateral related to these agreements. If we breach any of the default provisions on any of our indebtedness as described above, we could be required to settle our obligations under the derivative agreements at their termination values.

  1. Segment Reporting

We present financial information fortwo reportable segments, Performance Sensing and Sensing Solutions. In the three months ended March 31, 2025, we realigned the definition of segment operating income to include megatrend costs, which were previously excluded from segment operating income and included in corporate and other costs. Refer to Note 1: Basis of Presentation for additional information.

Our operating segments are businesses that we manage as components of an enterprise, for which separate financial information is evaluated regularly by our chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), who is our chief executive officer, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.

An operating segment’s performance is primarily evaluated based on segment operating income, which excludes amortization of intangible assets, impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets, restructuring charges, and certain corporate costs or credits not associated with the operations of the segment, such as share-based compensation expense. Corporate and other costs excluded from an operating (and reportable) segment’s performance are separately stated below and also include costs that are related to functional areas such as finance, information technology, legal, and human resources. The CODM uses operating income primarily in the annual budget and forecasting process. The CODM considers budget-to-actual variances on a quarterly basis for operating income when making decisions about the allocation of operating and capital resources to each segment. Significant expenses are reviewed by the CODM on a consolidated basis and not at the operating segment level. We believe that segment operating income, as defined above, is an appropriate measure for evaluating the operating performance of our segments. However, this measure should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, operating income or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The accounting policies of each of our operating and reportable segments are materially consistent with those described in Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies of the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2024 Annual Report.

The Performance Sensing segment serves the automotive and HVOR industries through the development and manufacture of sensors, high-voltage solutions (i.e., electrical protection components), and other solutions that are used in mission-critical systems and applications. Examples include those used in subsystems of automobiles, on-road trucks, and off-road equipment, such as tire pressure monitoring, thermal management, electrical protection, regenerative braking, powertrain (engine/transmission), and exhaust management. These products are used in subsystems that, among other things, improve operating performance and efficiency and contribute to environmentally sustainable and safe solutions.

The Sensing Solutions segment primarily serves the industrial and aerospace industries through the development and manufacture of a broad portfolio of application-specific sensor and electrical protection products used in a diverse range of industrial markets, including the appliance, HVAC, water management, operator controls, charging infrastructure, renewable energy generation, green hydrogen production, and microgrid applications and markets, as well as the aerospace market, including commercial aircraft, defense, and aftermarket markets.

Some of the products and solutions sold by the Sensing Solutions segment include pressure, temperature, and position sensors, motor and compressor protectors, high-voltage contactors, solid state relays, bimetal electromechanical controls, power inverters, charge controllers, battery management systems, operator controls, and power conversion systems. Sensing Solutions products perform many functions, including prevention of damage from excess heat or electrical current, optimization of system performance, low-power circuit control, renewable energy generation, and power conversion from direct current power to alternating current power.

  1. Disposals

Insights Business

In August 2024, we executed a purchase agreement whereby we agreed to sell the Insights Business to an affiliate of Balmoral Funds ("the Buyer"). The closing of the transaction ("Closing") occurred in the third quarter of 2024, at which time net assets transferred to the Buyer.

Concurrent with the Closing, the parties entered into a Transition Services Agreement ("TSA") and a Supply Agreement. The terms of the TSA require that we provide various forms of commercial, operational, and back-office support to the Buyer. The Supply Agreement commenced at Closing and has a term offive years or less. The terms of this agreement require that we sell certain tire pressure monitoring system products to the Buyer over the term of the agreement.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Insights Business was included in our Other segment.

Magnetic Speed and Position Business ("MSP Business")

In November 2024, we executed a purchase agreement whereby we agreed to sell the MSP Business to a third party. The closing of the transaction occurred in the first quarter of 2025, at which time net assets transferred to the Buyer.

  1. Subsequent Events

On April 6, 2025, we experienced a ransomware incident that encrypted certain devices in our network. Upon discovery, we immediately activated our response protocols, implemented containment measures, including proactively taking our network offline, and launched an investigation with the assistance of third-party cybersecurity professionals. In coordination with legal counsel, we have notified law enforcement about the matter and are supporting its investigation.

The incident temporarily impacted our operations, including shipping, receiving, manufacturing production, and various other support functions to varying degrees over approximately a two-week period. Our ongoing investigation has identified evidence that files were taken from our environment. We are working to identify and review the files involved and will take additional actions as appropriate based on our review, including notifying individuals and regulatory authorities in accordance with applicable law.

As of the date of these financial statements, we do not expect this incident to have a material impact on the Company’s financial results and operations for the second quarter ending June 30, 2025 nor the full year ending December 31, 2025; however, the full scope and impact of this incident is not yet known and could result in a future determination that the incident will be material to our financial statements and results of operations.
