4. ASSETS HELD FOR SALE

In September 2025, the Company announced a strategic review that included the potential sale of its High-Density Polyethylene ("HDPE") pipe business. During the second quarter of 2026, the Company's Board of Directors approved the sale and a potential buyer was identified. As of March 27, 2026, all criteria under ASC 360-10-45-9 were met, and the Company's HDPE business (the "disposal group"), a component of the Electrical reportable segment, was classified as held for sale. The disposal group did not meet the criteria for classification as a discontinued operation under ASC 205-20, and accordingly, the results of operations of the HDPE business are included in the Company's results from continuing operations for all periods presented.

On April 7, 2026, the Company completed the sale of the HDPE business to Infra Pipes Solutions U.S Corp. Under the terms of the sale agreement, Atkore contributed its HDPE business, together with commitments to provide an additional approximately $28,000 of cash, in exchange for a retained 10% equity interest in the combined entity and contingent consideration.

The disposal group, consisting of the associated assets and liabilities, is measured at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. Depreciation and amortization expense is not recorded for the period in which assets are classified as held for sale.
Goodwill of $6,500 associated with the HDPE business was determined to be fully impaired as of March 27, 2026, resulting in an impairment charge that is included in Asset impairments in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended March 27, 2026.

After the impairment of the goodwill, the carrying value of the remaining net assets held for sale was greater than their fair value less costs to sell, resulting in a loss of $25,664 that is included in Other expense, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended March 27, 2026.

The fair value less costs to sell of the disposal group was primarily determined using a discounted cash flows model but also considered information obtained through the bidding process. The discounted cash flows model includes significant unobservable inputs, and is therefore classified as a Level 3 fair value measurement. This fair value measurement is preliminary and subject to change as the Company finalizes its valuation analysis.
