Due to the continued and sustained decline in the market value of its ordinary shares during the second quarter of fiscal 2025 resulting from the uncertainties surrounding future production volume within the automotive industry, a triggering event was identified requiring a quantitative goodwill impairment analysis in the previous year. As a result, a $333 million non-cash goodwill impairment was recorded in the EMEA reporting unit. No amounts of goodwill remain recorded in EMEA.
