As of September 30, 2026, the recoverability of our property, plant, and equipment was based on certain expectations regarding the ongoing operation of our international manufacturing facilities. However, it is reasonably possible that the operational status of one or more of our international facilities may be adversely affected by geopolitical developments, including trade policies or tariffs, which may result in future decisions to reduce, pause, or cease operations at these facilities. Such decisions may result in certain property, plant, and equipment being sold or otherwise disposed of before the end of their previously estimated useful lives, which, in turn, could result in a decrease in the value, and possible impairment, of this property, plant, and equipment. Accordingly, any such changes to the operational status of our international manufacturing facilities could be material to our condensed consolidated financial statements and have a significant adverse effect on our results of operations.

Depreciation of property, plant and equipment was $143.6 million and $430.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively, and $130.9 million and $375.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively.

As of September 30, 2026, the carrying amount of our investments in these subsidiaries was $6.8 million.
