Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(UNAUDITED)

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

  1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

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

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

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

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

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

These financial statements have been prepared on a basis that is substantially consistent with the accounting principles applied in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the "2025 Form 10-K"). This report should be read in conjunction with our 2025 Form 10-K. In our opinion, these financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation.

  1. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This ASU updates improve financial reporting by requiring that public business entities disclose additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to financial statements at interim and annual reporting periods. This information is generally not presented in the financial statements today. The ASU also requires disclosure of the total amount of selling expenses and our definition of selling expenses. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements. This ASU clarifies interim disclosure requirements and provides a new disclosure principle for reporting material events occurring after the most recent fiscal year. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-12, Codification Improvements. This ASU updates a broad range of Topics arising from technical corrections, unintended application of the Codification, clarifications, and other minor improvements that has a wide application to any entity affected by accounting guidance. The amendments make the codification easier to understand and apply. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Term Loan facility

On June 27, 2025, the Company entered into a $95 million secured credit facility (the “Term Loan”) pursuant to a term loan and security agreement with TCW Asset Management Company LLC (“TCW Management”), as administrative agent, and other lender parties thereto. All obligations of the Company under the Term Loan are unconditionally guaranteed by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. The Company and each of its guarantor subsidiaries have granted liens in substantially all of their property to secure their respective obligations under the Term Loan, guaranties and related documents. The Term Loan matures on June 27, 2030.

The proceeds of the Term Loan were used, together with cash on hand of the Company, to (a) pay down the then existing term loan and revolving credit facilities due 2027 of the Company with Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent (the “Prior Credit Facilities"), (b) pay related transaction costs, fees and expenses incurred in connection therewith, and (c) for working capital and other lawful corporate purposes of the Company.

Interest Rates and Fees

Amounts outstanding under the Term Loan accrue interest at a per annum rate based on the consolidated total leverage ratio ranging from SOFR plus 8.75% with a leverage ratio <3.50 x to SOFR plus 10.75% with a leverage ratio >6.25 x. The interest rate was set at SOFR plus 9.75% through September 2025. At the Company’s option, interest may be paid at the base rate plus 9.75% with a leverage ratio <3.50 x to base rate plus 11.75% with a leverage ratio >6.25 x where the base rate is the greatest of (1)3.0%, (2) Federal Funds rate plus 0.5%, (3) SOFR plus 1.0%, or (4) Prime rate. The base rate margin was initially set at base rate plus 10.75%. In connection with the initial funding of the Term Loan the Company paid to the Term Loan lenders a fee equal to 3.0% of the Term Loan amount.

Covenants and Other Terms

The Term Loan contains a maximum total leverage ratio covenant, a maximum capital expenditure covenant, an average liquidity covenant, and other customary restrictive covenants, including, without limitation, limitations on the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur additional debt and guarantees; grant certain liens on assets; pay dividends or make certain other distributions; make certain investments or acquisitions; dispose of certain assets; make payments on certain indebtedness; merge, combine with any other person or liquidate; amend organizational documents; file consolidated tax returns with entities other than the Company and its subsidiaries; make material changes in accounting treatment or reporting practices; enter into certain restrictive agreements; enter into certain hedging agreements; engage in transactions with affiliates; enter into certain employee benefit plans; amend subordinated debt; and other matters customarily included in senior secured loan agreements. The consolidated total leverage ratio covenant did not exceed 7.25 to 1.00 for the quarter ended September 30, 2025;6.50 to 1.00 for the quarter ended December 31, 2025;6.00 to 1.00 for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. The consolidated total leverage ratio covenant may not exceed 5.25 to 1.00 for the quarter ending June 30, 2026;5.00 to 1.00 for the quarter ending September 30, 2026;4.75 to 1.00 for the quarter ending December 31, 2026;4.50 to 1.00 for the quarter ending March 31, 2027;4.25 to 1.00 for the quarter ending June 30, 2027; and 4.00 to 1.00 for the quarter ending September 30, 2027 and each fiscal quarter thereafter. The Term Loan also contains customary reporting and other affirmative covenants. We were in compliance with these covenants as of March 31, 2026.

The Term Loan contains customary events of default, including, without limitation, nonpayment of obligations under the Term Loan when due; material inaccuracy of representations and warranties; violation of covenants in the Term Loan and certain other documents executed in connection therewith; breach or default of agreements related to material debt; revocation or attempted revocation of guarantees; denial of the validity or enforceability of the loan documents or failure of the loan documents to be in full force and effect; certain material judgments; certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency; certain Employee Retirement Income Securities Act events; loss, theft, damage or destruction of collateral; and a change in control of the Company. Certain of the defaults are subject to exceptions, materiality qualifiers, grace periods and baskets customary for credit facilities of this type.

Term Loan amortization payments are to be made quarterly in an amount equal to 0.25% of the original principal balance of the Term Loan, stepping up to 1.25% from and after June 30, 2027.

The Term Loan requires the Company to make mandatory prepayments (subject to reinvestment rights) with the proceeds of certain asset dispositions and upon the receipt of certain extraordinary payments (including, without limitation, insurance or condemnation proceeds, tax refunds, and judgments). In addition, the Company is required to make annual excess cash flow prepayments commencing after fiscal 2026 financial results are final, and mandatory prepayments with proceeds of debt not permitted under the Term Loan. During the quarter ended March 31, 2026 the Company made a mandatory prepayment of $14.6 million as the result of a sale and leaseback transaction.

Voluntary prepayment of amounts outstanding under the Term Loan are permitted at any time, subject to a make-whole amount for the first year immediately following the initial funding of the Term Loan, a 4% premium for the second year and a 2% premium for the third year and the payment of customary breakage costs, if applicable.

In connection with entering into the Term Loan due 2030, the Company issued to affiliates of TCW Management five-year warrants for the purchase of up to an aggregate of 3,934,776 shares of the Company’s common stock, issued intwo equal tranches. See Note 5, Fair Value Measurement, for terms of these warrants.

ABL Revolving Credit Facility

On June 27, 2025, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, as co-borrowers entered into a loan and security agreement (the “ABL Revolving Credit Facility”) with Bank of America, N.A. as agent, and certain financial institutions as lenders, which agreement governs the Company’s revolving credit facility and amends and restates the Company’s Prior Revolving Credit Facility due 2027. The Company and each of its co-borrower subsidiaries are jointly and severally liable for all obligations arising under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility and have granted liens in substantially all of their property to secure their respective obligations under the revolving loan agreement and related documents. The ABL Revolving Credit Facility matures on June 27, 2030, springing to 91 days prior to the maturity of the Term Loan or third-party subordinated debt.

In accordance with the terms of the ABL Revolving Credit Facility the Company and the other named borrowers thereunder are entitled (subject to the terms and conditions described therein) to request loans and other financial accommodations in an amount equal to the lesser of $115.0 million and a borrowing base composed of accounts receivable and inventory. The ABL Revolving Credit Facility is comprised of a US subfacility of $100.0 million and a UK subfacility of $15.0 million, in each case subject to availability under the borrowing base. The US subfacility further has a first-in-last-out tranche equal to the lesser of $12.5 million and its borrowing base. The Company can increase the size of the revolving commitments thereunder by an incremental $50.0 million, subject to the consent of the lenders providing the incremental commitments. Up to an aggregate of $10.0 million is available to the Company and the other borrowers for the issuance of letters of credit, which reduces availability under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility. Borrowings are available in US Dollars, Pounds Sterling and Euros.

Interest Rates and Commitment Fees

Amounts outstanding under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility accrue interest at a per annum rate based on SOFR, SONIA or EURIBOR, as applicable for the currency of the loan, with margins based on the average daily availability ranging from 1.50% if average daily availability is greater than $50 million to 2.00% if average daily availability is less than $30 million. The interest rate was initially set at SOFR plus 1.75%. The first-in-last-out tranche accrues interest at a 1% higher rate. At the Company’s option, interest may be paid at the base rate. The base rate spread ranges from 0.50% if average daily availability is greater than $50 million to 1.00% if average daily availability is less than $30 million.

The Company will pay an unused fee to the lenders equal to 0.25% per annum of the unused amounts under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility.

Covenants and Other Terms

The ABL Revolving Credit Facility includes a springing minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.0:1.0, calculated when availability is less than the greater of $10.0 million and 10% of the revolver commitments. The fixed charge coverage ratio is determined with respect to approved obligors only.

The ABL Revolving Credit Facility contains customary restrictive covenants, including, without limitation, limitations on the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur additional debt and guarantees; grant liens on assets; pay dividends or make other distributions; make investments or acquisitions; dispose of assets; make payments on certain indebtedness; merge, combine with any other person or liquidate; amend organizational documents; file consolidated tax returns with entities other than the Company and its subsidiaries; make material changes in accounting treatment or reporting practices; enter into restrictive agreements; enter into hedging agreements; engage in transactions with affiliates; enter into certain employee benefit plans; amend subordinated debt; and other matters customarily included in senior secured loan agreements. The ABL Revolving Credit Facility also contains customary reporting and other affirmative covenants. We were in compliance with these covenants as of March 31, 2026.

The ABL Revolving Credit Facility contains customary events of default, including, without limitation, nonpayment of obligations under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility when due; material inaccuracy of representations and warranties; violation of covenants in the ABL Revolving Credit Facility and certain other documents executed in connection therewith; breach or default of agreements related to material debt; revocation or attempted revocation of guarantees; denial of the validity or enforceability of the loan documents or failure of the loan documents to be in full force and effect; certain material judgments; certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency; certain Employee Retirement Income Securities Act events; loss, theft, damage or destruction of collateral; and a change in control of the Company. Certain of the defaults are subject to exceptions, materiality qualifiers, grace periods and baskets customary for credit facilities of this type.

Voluntary prepayments of amounts outstanding under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility are permitted at any time, without premium or penalty, other than in respect of customary breakage costs, if applicable.

The ABL Revolving Credit Facility requires the borrowers to make mandatory prepayments with the receipt of any proceeds of certain insurance or condemnation awards paid in respect of revolving credit priority collateral.

At March 31, 2026, we had $16.1 million of borrowings under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility, outstanding letters of credit of $3.5 million and availability of $95.4 million (subject to customary borrowing base and other conditions). Combined with availability under our China Credit Facility (described below) of approximately $4.3 million, total consolidated availability was $99.7 million at March 31, 2026. The unamortized deferred financing fees associated with the ABL Revolving Credit Facility of $2.6 million and $2.5 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, are being amortized over the remaining life of the ABL Revolving Credit Facility. At December 31, 2025, we had $16.8 million borrowings under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility and we had outstanding letters of credit of $2.1 million.

The China Credit Facility was renewed in the quarter ended December 31, 2025, with availability of approximately$7.2 million (denominated in the local currency). We utilize the China Credit Facility to meet local working capital demands, fund letters of credit and bank guarantees, and support other short-term cash requirements of our China operations.

  1. Fair Value Measurement

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

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

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

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

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

Recurring Measurements

Foreign Currency Forward Exchange Contracts. Our derivative assets and liabilities represent foreign exchange contracts that are measured at fair value using observable market inputs such as forward rates, interest rates, our own credit risk and counterparty credit risk. Based on the utilization of these inputs, the derivative assets and liabilities are classified as Level 2. To manage our risk for transactions denominated in Mexican Pesos, Czech Crown, and Ukrainian Hryvnia, we have entered into forward exchange contracts that are designated as cash flow hedge instruments, which are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. The gains and losses as a result of the changes in fair value of the hedge contract for transactions denominated in Mexican Pesos are deferred in accumulated other comprehensive loss and recognized in cost of revenues in the period the related hedge transactions are settled. As of March 31, 2026, hedge contracts for transactions denominated in Czech Crown were not designated as hedging instruments; therefore, they are marked-to-market and the fair value of agreements is recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets with the offsetting gains and losses recognized in other (income) expense and recognized in cost of revenues in the period the related hedge transactions are settled in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Interest Rate Swaps. As of March 31, 2025, the Company settled its interest rate swap and received cash proceeds of $0.6 million. The gain on the swap settlement was recorded in Other comprehensive income (loss) and is being recognized over the life of the hedged transactions. As of March 31, 2026, there was no interest rate swap outstanding.

Stock Warrants Issued in Connection with Long-Term Debt —In connection with entering into the Term Loan due 2030, the Company issued to affiliates of TCW Management five-year warrants for the purchase of up to an aggregate of 3,934,776 shares of the Company’s common stock, issued intwo equal tranches. The tranches have an exercise price of $1.52 and $2.07 per share, respectively. Until the fourth anniversary after issuance, the Company has the right to repurchase up to 50% of each tranche of warrants at a price equal to $1.40 or $1.00 per share, respectively, above the applicable exercise price. Upon a refinancing of the Term Loan, the holders of the warrants can require the Company to repurchase up to 50% of each tranche at a price equal to the per share price of the Company's common stock at the time of repurchase less the exercise price. The warrants contain anti-dilution adjustments that may result in a change in the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise. The Company also has provided TCW Management with certain information and registration rights, including filing a registration statement within 45 days to register the resale of the shares underlying the warrants, pursuant to an Investor Rights Agreement.

As of March 31, 2026 the warrants were valued at$7.5 million using the Binomial Lattice Model and were recorded in Other long-term liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets with the offsetting gains and losses recognized in other (income) expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Losses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $5.0 million.

The fair values of our financial instruments measured on a recurring basis are categorized as follows:

Other Fair Value Measurements

The fair value of long-term debt obligations is based on a fair value model utilizing observable inputs. Based on these inputs, our long-term debt fair value as disclosed was classified as Level 3 as of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2026 due to the lack of observable market inputs or comparable instruments. With the refinancing of our long-term debt on June 27, 2025, the carrying values of our long-term debt obligations approximate the fair values.

We recorded a $1.9 million tax provision, or 68% effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to a $2.1 million tax provision, or (207)% effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The effective tax rate is impacted by the mix of the Company's profitable foreign operations and losses in the US while maintaining its full valuation allowance position on U.S. deferred tax assets. Income tax expense is based on an estimated annual effective tax rate, which requires management to make its best estimate of annual pretax income or loss. During the year, management regularly updates forecasted annual pretax results for the various countries in which the Company operates based on changes in factors such as prices, shipments, product mix, material inflation and manufacturing operations. To the extent that actual 2026 pretax results for U.S. and foreign income or loss vary from estimates, the actual income tax expense recognized in 2026 could be different from the forecasted amount used to estimate the income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, cash paid for taxes, net of refunds received, were$1.1 millionand $0.8 million, respectively.

  1. Commitments and Contingencies

Leases - As disclosed in Note 7, Leases, we lease office, warehouse and manufacturing space and equipment under non-cancelable operating lease agreements that generally require us to pay maintenance, insurance, taxes and other expenses in addition to annual rental fees. As of March 31, 2026, our equipment leases did not provide for any material guarantee of a specified portion of residual values.

Guarantees - Costs associated with guarantees are accrued when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The most likely cost to be incurred is accrued based on an evaluation of available facts; where no amount within a range of estimates is more likely, the minimum is accrued. As of March 31, 2026 and 2025, we had no such guarantees.

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

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

Warranty - We are subject to warranty claims for products that fail to perform as expected due to design or manufacturing deficiencies. Depending on the terms under which we supply products to our customers, a customer may hold us responsible for some or all of the repair or replacement costs of defective products when the product supplied did not perform as represented. Our policy is to record provisions for estimated future customer warranty costs based on historical trends and for specific claims. These amounts, as they relate to the periods ended March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, are included within accrued liabilities and other in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

On July 24, 2023, one of our customers issued a voluntary safety recall related to certain wiper system components supplied by us. On October 6, 2025, one of our customers issued a safety recall related to certain truck cabs produced in our cab manufacturing facility. The facility was sold during 2024 and reported as discontinued operations. To the extent a loss occurs that is attributed to us, we believe that we have reasonable levels of insurance coverage to mitigate recall exposure risk. It is reasonably possible that we will incur additional losses and fees above the amount accrued for warranty claims but we cannot estimate a range of such reasonably possible losses or fees related to these claims at this time. There are no assurances, however, that settlements reached and/or adverse judgments received, if any, will not exceed amounts normally accrued.

The following presents a summary of the warranty provision for the three months ended March 31, 2026:

Balance - December 31, 2025$1,387
Provision for warranty claims198
Deduction for payments made and other adjustments(330)
Balance - March 31, 2026$1,255

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