The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s results for interim periods have been included. The notes that follow are an integral part of the Company’s interim consolidated financial statements. The Company’s results for interim periods should not be considered indicative of its results for a full year, and the year-end consolidated balance sheet does not include all of the disclosures required by GAAP. As such, these interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

 

Revision of Previously Issued Consolidated Financial Statements and Interim Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

 

As previously disclosed in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, during the financial close process for the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company identified immaterial errors related primarily to the timing of income tax expense recognition, including deferred tax valuation allowances. These errors impact previously issued financial statements beginning as of January 1, 2023, and subsequent quarterly and annual reporting periods through September 30, 2025. The Company assessed the materiality of these errors, as well as all other previously identified immaterial errors which impact previously issued financial statements beginning as of January 1, 2023, and subsequent quarterly and annual reporting periods through September 30, 2025. The Company assessed the materiality of these errors on prior period consolidated financial statements in accordance with ASC 250. Based on this assessment, management concluded that the amounts are not material to any previously presented interim or annual financial statements. However, these immaterial errors were revised in connection with, and as part of, the Company's year-end December 31, 2025 previously disclosed revisions of prior period financial statements, described in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

 

The following tables present the impact of these revisions for each of the applicable periods and impacted financial statements presented in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. The Company has also revised impacted amounts within the accompanying notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, as applicable.

Liquidity

The Company believes it has sufficient liquidity, through future cash flows from operations, unrestricted cash on hand and availability under its revolving credit facility to timely settle its current liabilities through at least the end of August 2027, however, an adverse resolution of one or more legal or environmental matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company's liquidity.

As disclosed in "Note 17 – Commitments and Contingent Liabilities", the Company and certain of its subsidiaries are subject to various lawsuits, claims, assessments, government investigations, regulatory proceedings and other legal proceedings with respect to product liability, intellectual property, personal injury, commercial, contractual, employment, regulatory, environmental, anti-trust, and other such matters that arise in the ordinary course of business in multiple jurisdictions. The Company’s ability to timely settle its long term liabilities in the event such liabilities become current as a result of an adverse resolution of a legal matter will depend on its ability to generate sufficient future operating cash flows, resolve legal and environmental matters under acceptable terms and conditions and refinance its revolving credit facility and other long term debt on acceptable terms and conditions. Accordingly, there are risks and uncertainties with respect to the Company's ability to achieve its liquidity objectives.

At June 30, 2026, the Company has $671 of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, of which $516 is maintained at foreign subsidiaries. The Company anticipates generating additional positive cash flows from operations in 2026. The Company has $1,861 of current liabilities as of June 30, 2026. The Company also has $953 of availability under its revolving credit facility at June 30, 2026. The Company’s revolving commitments are comprised of $780 in revolving commitments that mature on May 2, 2030 and $220 in revolving commitments that mature on October 7, 2026; in each case, subject to springing maturity provisions. See "Note 15 - Debt" to these Interim Consolidated Financial Statements for further details.
