Basis of Presentation

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, although we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The information furnished reflects all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, were necessary for a fair statement of the Consolidated Financial Statements for the periods presented. Such adjustments were of a normal recurring nature, unless otherwise disclosed.

Allowance for Credit Losses

We have an allowance for credit losses recorded as an estimate of the accounts receivable balance that may not be collected. This allowance is calculated on an entity-by-entity basis with consideration of historical write-off experience, age of receivables, market conditions, and a specific review for expected credit losses. Items that affect this balance mainly include provision for credit losses and the write-off of accounts receivable balances.

A rollforward of our allowance for credit losses is shown below:


	Three Months Ended March 31, 2026
Balance, December 31, 2025	$	74.1
Provision for credit losses		2.5
Write-offs		(4.0	)
Currency impact and other		(0.9	)
Balance, March 31, 2026	$	71.7

Leases

We determine whether a contract is or contains a lease at contract inception. We recognize right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for leases with contract terms longer than 12 months. We classify the lease as a finance or operating lease which affects the recognition, measurement, and presentation of lease expenses and cash flows. Our Consolidated Balance Sheets present ROU assets, short-term lease liability and long-term lease liability as separate line items.

ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term. Lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term. As the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable in most of our leases, we use our incremental borrowing rate. We determine our incremental borrowing rate at the commencement date using our unsecured borrowing rate, adjusted for collateralization, lease term, economic environment, currency and other factors. ROU assets are recognized at commencement date at the value of the related lease liabilities, adjusted for any prepayments, lease incentives received, and initial direct costs incurred. Our lease terms include options to renew or not terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option.

Lease expenses for operating leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and recorded in selling and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Impairment of Goodwill and Other Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets

In accordance with the accounting guidance on goodwill and other intangible assets, we perform an annual impairment test of goodwill at our reporting unit level and indefinite-lived intangible assets at our unit of account level during the third quarter, or more frequently if events or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of our reporting units below their carrying value. In the event the fair value of a reporting unit is less than the carrying value including goodwill, we record an impairment charge equal to the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value. Similarly, if the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying value, we record an impairment charge for the difference.

We evaluate the recoverability of goodwill utilizing an income approach that estimates the fair value of the future discounted cash flows to which the goodwill relates. This approach reflects management’s internal outlook of the reporting units, which is believed to be the best determination of value due to management’s insight and experience with the reporting units. We evaluate the following assumptions which are used in our goodwill impairment tests: expected future revenue growth rates, operating unit profit (OUP) margins, working capital levels, discount rates, and terminal value revenue growth rate. We consider expected future revenue growth rates, OUP margins and discount rates to be the more significant assumptions. The expected future revenue growth rates and OUP margins are determined after taking into consideration historical performance, our assessment of future market potential, and expected future business performance conditions. We believe that the discounted cash flow model provides the most reasonable and meaningful estimate of fair value, consistent with how market participants would value our reporting units in an orderly transaction.

For indefinite-lived intangible assets, we use either an income approach or a relief-from-royalty method, depending on the nature of the asset. Significant assumptions include expected future revenue growth rates, profit margins, discount rates, and market participant assumptions.

Management closely monitors the financial and operating results relative to the assumptions used in our fair value estimates, as well as macroeconomic conditions and strategic initiatives that may impact the reporting units and indefinite-lived intangible assets. During the first quarter of 2026, in connection with the preparation of our financial statements, we assessed the changes in circumstances that occurred during the quarter to determine if it was more likely than not that the fair value of any reporting unit were below its carrying amount. The actual results of revenues and OUP margins for our key reporting units were consistent with the forecasted assumptions used for the near-term revenue growth and OUP margins utilized in the discounted cash flow models as of our valuation date. In evaluating triggering events, we considered external data points from analysts, market peers, our past history and experience, actual operating results, and near-term and long-term forecasts. Specifically, we observed largely stable activity levels across North America and Europe, with improving trends in certain reporting units, which management expects to continue through 2026. Based on the analysis performed, we concluded that the fair value of the reporting units continued to equal or exceed the carrying value and that no triggering events requiring an interim impairment test were identified.

We have recently had stable activity levels in certain markets, and in prior periods, we have experienced decreases in our operating results. There could be further decreases in our operating results, which may result in the recognition of goodwill impairments.
