Gentherm (NASDAQ: THRM) posts Q1 2026 growth and details $1B Modine deal
Gentherm Incorporated reported Q1 2026 product revenue of $393.7 million, up 11.3% year over year, as Automotive sales rose across Climate Control Seats, lumbar and massage systems, and other comfort products. Gross margin improved slightly to 24.7% and net income reached $4.2 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, versus a small loss a year ago.
Operating income fell to $11.3 million as selling, general and administrative costs jumped, largely from $14.8 million of Modine merger and acquisition expenses and higher restructuring charges. The company ended the quarter with $177.4 million in cash, $219.0 million drawn on its revolving credit facility, and outlined a planned Reverse Morris Trust combination with Modine’s Performance Technologies business valued at about $1.0 billion.

Insights
Gentherm posts solid revenue growth while preparing for a large, leveraged Modine combination.
Gentherm grew Q1 2026 revenue by 11.3% to $393.7M, with Automotive up 11.8%. However, heavy Modine-related deal costs and restructuring lifted operating expenses, cutting operating income to $11.3M from $17.1M.
The planned Reverse Morris Trust with Modine’s Performance Technologies unit is valued around $1.0B. Structure and disclosures indicate Modine shareholders would own about 40% of the combined company, with Gentherm shareholders at about 60%, and SpinCo paying a $210M cash distribution to Modine.
To support the transaction, Gentherm lined up a $290M Bridge Facility and amended its $500M revolving credit agreement to permit up to $400M of additional term debt. Actual impact will depend on closing in Q4 2026, regulatory approvals, financing terms and integration execution.

Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
The unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. The information furnished in the consolidated condensed financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of only normal, recurring adjustments) considered necessary to present fairly the results of operations, financial position and cash flows of the

Company. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. The operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for other interim periods or for the full year.
In preparing these financial statements, management was required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are based on our historical experience, the terms of existing contracts, our evaluation of trends in the industry, information provided by our customers and suppliers and information available from other third-party sources, as appropriate. These estimates and assumptions are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty and may change as new events occur and additional information is obtained. As a result, actual results may differ significantly from our estimates, and any such differences may be material to our financial statements.
All amounts in these notes to the consolidated condensed financial statements are presented in thousands, except share and per share data.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and those entities in which it has a controlling financial interest. The Company evaluates its relationship with other entities for consolidation and to identify whether such entities are variable interest entities and to assess whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of such entities. Investments in affiliates in which Gentherm does not have control but does have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies are accounted for under the equity method. When Gentherm does not have the ability to exercise significant influence (generally when ownership interest is less than
Revenue Recognition - payments to customers
From time to time, the Company provides cash incentives to customers in exchange for new business awards. The Company evaluates the underlying economics of each amount of consideration payable to a customer to determine the proper accounting by understanding the reasons for the payment, the rights and obligations resulting from the payment, the nature of the promises in the contract, and other relevant facts and circumstances. When the Company concludes that the payment is incurred only if the new business is obtained and the Company expects to recover the amounts from the customer over the term of the new business arrangement, the Company recognizes these payments as an asset. The Company amortizes the asset as a reduction of revenue as products related to the payment are transferred to the customer, based on the total amount of products expected to be sold over the term of the arrangement (generally

Note 3 – Restructuring
The Company continuously monitors market developments, industry trends and changing customer needs and in response, has taken and may continue to undertake restructuring actions, as necessary, to execute management’s strategy, streamline operations and optimize the Company’s cost structure. Restructuring actions may include the realignment of existing manufacturing footprint, facility closures or similar actions, either in the normal course of business or pursuant to significant restructuring programs.
These actions may result in employees receiving voluntary or involuntary employee termination benefits, which are mainly statutory requirements or other contractual agreements. Voluntary termination benefits are accrued when an employee accepts the related offer. Involuntary termination benefits are accrued upon the commitment to a termination plan and when the benefit arrangement is communicated to affected employees, or when liabilities are determined to be probable and estimable, depending on the existence of a substantive plan for severance or termination.
2026 Plan
In February 2026, the Company committed to a restructuring plan to realign its operating model and organizational structure to deliver on its key financial and operational priorities (“2026 Plan”). The 2026 Plan is expected to result in structural cost reductions impacting the Company’s global salaried workforce.

Under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, all obligations are unconditionally guaranteed by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries and a security interest is granted in substantially all of the personal property of the Company and its U.S. subsidiaries designated as borrowers, including the stock and membership interests of specified subsidiaries. The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement contains covenants, that, among other things, (i) prohibit or limit the ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens, pay dividends, make certain types of investments (including acquisitions), enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates, prepay other indebtedness, sell assets or enter into certain other transactions outside the ordinary course of business, and (ii) require that Gentherm maintain a minimum Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio and a maximum Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio (based on consolidated EBITDA for the applicable trailing four fiscal quarters) as of the end of any fiscal quarter. The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default.
On February 24, 2026, the Company entered into the First Amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “First Amendment”).

Note 7 – Commitments and Contingencies
Legal and Other Contingencies
The Company is subject to various legal actions and claims in the ordinary course of its business, which may include those arising out of breach of contracts, intellectual property rights, environmental matters, regulatory matters and employment-related matters. The Company establishes accruals for matters which it believes that losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. Although it is not possible to predict with certainty the outcome of these matters, the Company is of the opinion that the ultimate
14
Table of Contents
resolution of these matters outstanding as of March 31, 2026 will not have a material adverse effect on its results of operations or financial position. Product liability and warranty reserves are recorded separately from legal reserves.
Product Liability and Warranty Matters
Our products subject us to warranty claims and, from time to time, product liability claims based on the Company’s products alleged failure to perform as expected or resulting in alleged bodily injury or property damage. If any of our products are or are alleged to be defective, we may be required to participate in a recall or other corrective action involving such products. The Company maintains warranty and product liability insurance coverage at levels based on commercial norms and historical claims experience. Such policies may not cover all costs associated with a claim. The Company can provide no assurances that it will not experience material warranty or product liability claims or liabilities in the future or that it will not incur significant costs to defend such claims.
The Company accrues warranty obligations for products sold based on management estimates of future failure rates and current claim cost experience, with support from the sales, engineering, quality and legal functions. Using historical information available to the Company, including any claims filed by customers, the warranty accrual is adjusted quarterly to reflect management’s estimate of future claims.

Note 8 – Supplier Finance Program
The Company is party to a supplier finance program with a third-party service provider (“Service Provider”), pursuant to which the Company has offered the opportunity to participate to certain of the Company's suppliers. The Company has no economic interest in a supplier’s participation and the Company has not pledged any assets to the Service Provider under this program.
Under this program, the Company and supplier initially agree on the contractual payment terms for the goods to be procured for the Company in the ordinary course. A supplier’s participation in this program is voluntary and does not impact its contractual payment terms with the Company, including the payment amount and timing of when payments are due. A participating supplier has the sole discretion to determine whether to discount one or more invoices, if any, to the Service Provider in exchange for payment by the Service Provider on an earlier date than provided for in the contract with the Company. Amounts due to participating suppliers are included in accounts payable in the consolidated condensed balance sheets until the Company makes payment to the Service Provider, even though the payment of such amount will be made to the supplier at an earlier date by the Service Provider. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had supplier obligations that had been confirmed under these arrangements of $
Note 9 – Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Note 10 – Financial Instruments
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company is exposed to various market risks including, but not limited to, changes in foreign currency exchange rates, changes in interest rates and price fluctuations of certain material commodities.
The Company regularly enters into derivative contracts with the objective of managing its financial and operational exposure arising from these risks by offsetting gains and losses on the underlying exposures with gains and losses on the financial instruments used to hedge them. The decision of whether and when to execute derivative financial instruments, along with the duration of the instrument, may vary from period to period depending on market conditions, the relative costs of the instruments and capacity to hedge. The duration is linked to the timing of the underlying exposure, with the connection between the two being regularly monitored. The Company does not enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes.

Note 11 – Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible and also considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value.
Fair value measurements are classified under the following fair value hierarchy:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.
17
Table of Contents
Level 2: Inputs, other than quoted market prices included in Level 1, that are observable either directly or indirectly for the asset or liability.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are used when little or no market data is available. Unobservable inputs are used if there is little or no market data for the asset or liability at the measurement date.
Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The Company uses an income approach to value derivatives instruments, analyzing quoted market prices to calculate the forward values and then discounting such forward values to the present value using benchmark rates at commonly quoted intervals for the instrument’s full term. The Company had
Items Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
The Company measures certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, there was a decrease in the fair value of an equity investment of $
Items Not Carried at Fair Value
The Company uses an income valuation technique to measure the fair values of its debt instruments by converting amounts of future cash flows to a single present value amount using rates based on current market expectations (Level 2 inputs). As of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, the carrying values of the indebtedness under the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement were not materially different than the estimated fair values because the interest rates on variable rate debt approximated rates currently available to the Company (see Note 6, “Debt”).
Note 12 – Equity
In June 2024, the Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program (the “2024 Stock Repurchase Program”) to commence upon expiration of the Company’s prior stock repurchase program on June 30, 2024. Under the 2024 Stock Repurchase Program, the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $

The Company expects that substantially all of the existing gains and losses related to cash flow derivatives reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss as of March 31, 2026 to be reclassified into earnings during the next twelve months. See Note 10 for additional information about derivative financial instruments and the effects from reclassification to net income (loss).
Note 14 – Income Taxes
At the end of each interim period, the Company makes an estimate of the annual expected effective income tax rate and applies that rate to its ordinary year-to-date earnings or loss. The income tax provision or benefit related to unusual or infrequent items, if applicable, that will be separately reported or reported net of their related tax effects are individually computed and recognized in the interim period in which those items occur. In addition, the effect of changes in enacted tax laws or rates, tax status, judgment on the realizability of a beginning-of-the-year deferred tax asset in future years or income tax contingencies is recognized in the interim period in which the change occurs.
The computation of the annual expected effective income tax rate at each interim period requires certain estimates and assumptions including, but not limited to, the expected pre-tax income (or loss) for the year, projections of the proportion of income (and/or loss) earned and taxed in respective jurisdictions, permanent and temporary differences, and the likelihood of the realizability of deferred tax assets generated in the current year. Jurisdictions with a projected loss for the year for which no tax benefit can be recognized due to a valuation allowance are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate. The impact of such an exclusion could result in a higher or lower effective tax rate during a particular quarter, based upon the composition and timing of actual
19

earnings compared to annual projections. The estimates used to compute the provision or benefit for income taxes may change as new events occur, additional information is obtained or as our tax environment changes. To the extent that the expected annual effective income tax rate changes, the effect of the change on prior interim periods is included in the income tax provision in the period in which the change in estimate occurs.
A summary of the provision for income taxes and the corresponding effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, is shown below:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Report”) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements represent our goals, beliefs, plans and expectations about our prospects for the future and other future events, such as: the expected light vehicle production in the Company’s key markets; the impact of macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions, the components of and our execution of our strategic plan, product and technology development and manufacturing footprint optimization restructuring plans; our operating performance; long-term consumer and technological trends in the automotive industry and our related market opportunity for our existing and new products and technologies; the competitive landscape; the impact of global tax reform legislation and other regulatory matters; the sufficiency of our cash balances and cash generated from operating, investing and financing activities for our future liquidity and capital resource needs; our ability to finance sufficient working capital; and significant matters related to the Modine Transaction, including the expected closing timing and structure thereof, the ability of the parties to complete such transaction and planned actions to satisfy the closing conditions, the expected benefits thereof, the tax consequences thereof, the terms and scope of the expected financing in connection with such transaction, and the combined company’s plans, objectives, expectations and intentions, including integration activities. Reference is made in particular to forward-looking statements included in this “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”. Such statements may be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may”, “will”, “expect”, “believe”, “estimate”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “continue”, or similar terms, variations of such terms or the negative of such terms.
The forward-looking statements included in this Report are made as of the date hereof or as of the date specified herein and are based on management’s reasonable expectations and beliefs. In making these statements we rely on assumptions and analyses based on our experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, third-party information and projections from sources that management believes to be reputable, as well as other factors we consider appropriate under the circumstances.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by, the consolidated condensed financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Report and our consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Overview
Gentherm Incorporated is a global market leader of innovative thermal management and pneumatic comfort technologies. Our automotive products include Climate Control Seats (CCS®), Climate Control Interiors (CCI™), Lumbar and Massage Comfort Solutions, Valve Systems, and Climate and Comfort Electronics. We operate in locations aligned with our major customers’ product strategies to provide locally enhanced design, integration and production capabilities. Our medical products include patient temperature management systems that can be found in hospitals throughout the world.
Our Automotive sales are driven by the number of light vehicles produced by the OEMs primarily in our key markets of North America, Europe, China, Japan and South Korea, which is ultimately dependent on consumer demand for automotive light vehicles, our product content per vehicle, and other factors that may limit or otherwise impact production by us, our supply chain and our customers. Historically, new vehicle demand and product content (i.e. vehicle features) have been driven by macroeconomic and other factors, such as interest rates, automotive manufacturer and dealer sales incentives, fuel prices, consumer confidence, employment levels, income growth trends and government incentives. Vehicle content has also been driven by trends in consumer preferences. We believe our diversified OEM customer base and geographic revenue base, along with our flexible cost structure, have well positioned us to withstand the impact of industry downturns and benefit from industry upturns in the ordinary course. Our industry is increasingly
23
Table of Contents
progressing towards a focus on human comfort, health and wellness, which is evidenced by increasing adoption rates for comfort products. Gentherm is an independent partner that can cooperate with any combination of the vehicle OEMs and seat manufacturers globally, to create innovative and unique configurations that adapt to industry trends.
Modine Transaction
On January 29, 2026, the Company, entered into definitive agreements to combine the Performance Technologies business (“Performance Technologies”) of Modine Manufacturing Company, a Wisconsin corporation (“Modine”), with Gentherm (the “Modine Transaction”). The Modine Transaction is structured as a Reverse Morris Trust transaction, where a wholly owned subsidiary of Modine (“SpinCo”), owning Performance Technologies, will be spun off to Modine shareholders (the “Distribution”) and simultaneously merged with a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”). The transaction was valued at approximately $1,000.0 million as of the date of signing, based on specified assumptions. Shareholders of the Company immediately prior to the Merger are expected to own approximately 60.0% of the combined company and Modine shareholders are expected to own approximately 40.0% of the combined company, on a fully diluted basis, without taking into account any overlapping shareholder ownership and subject to adjustment.
Prior to and as a condition of, the Distribution, Modine will receive a cash distribution from SpinCo of $210.0 million subject to adjustment for cash, working capital and indebtedness of SpinCo, and subject to decrease if additional shares of Common Stock will be issued to Modine shareholders to support the intended tax-free treatment of the Distribution to Modine shareholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2026, subject to various closing conditions, including specified approvals by the Company’s shareholders, completion of financing for SpinCo, a customary IRS tax ruling, receipt of required regulatory approvals and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions.
The Merger Agreement also contains specified termination rights for the Company and Modine, including a right allowing the Company or Modine to terminate the Merger Agreement if the Merger has not been consummated on or prior to March 31, 2027 (which date may be extended to June 30, 2027 in the event that required regulatory approvals have not been received). Additionally, the Merger Agreement requires the Company to pay Modine a termination fee of $45.0 million if the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain circumstances.
In connection with the Merger Agreement, the Company, SpinCo and a financial institution executed a 364-day bridge loan facility commitment letter, pursuant to which such financial institution committed (i) to provide bridge financing of $290.0 million to fund dividends, fees and expenses related to the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (“Bridge Facility”) and (ii) to the Company a backstop of the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as defined below) (“Backstop Commitment”).
On February 24, 2026, the Company amended the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to permit the Modine Transaction, which terminated the Backstop Commitment. The Bridge Facility remains available but is expected to be replaced with permanent financing.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company incurred $3.0 million of fees associated with the Bridge Financing and Backstop Commitment. Such fees are recorded in Selling, general and administrative expenses.
Recent Trends
Tariffs and Global Trade Environment
Since March 2025, the U.S. government has periodically announced additional significant tariffs on various goods imported to the U.S. and other countries have periodically announced reciprocal tariffs on goods imported to such countries, including goods used by or manufactured by us. There has been significant uncertainty resulting from the implementation, termination and/or conditional pause of these additional tariffs. In February 2026, the Supreme Court of the U.S. issued a ruling striking down certain tariffs previously imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. The ultimate availability, timing, and amount of any potential refunds of such tariffs remain uncertain and are subject to further legal, regulatory, and administrative developments. The U.S. presidential administration subsequently invoked additional tariffs under other laws resulting in a rapidly changing tariff environment. At this time we cannot reasonably estimate the total financial impact of this ruling. Further, it is reasonably possible that
24
Table of Contents
new or additional tariffs will be periodically announced in the future given the current global trade environment. We continue to monitor and evaluate the direct and indirect impacts of these tariffs and heightened global trade disputes. Our business model of manufacturing by regions for the regions limit the global impact of certain trade restrictions and tariffs. Further, the majority of our supply components are not currently subject to the additional tariffs or are compliant with exceptions, and we believe that we can generally mitigate the direct impact of any such tariffs currently in effect by directly or indirectly passing the additional costs through to customers. We are taking and will continue to take additional actions to mitigate any direct and indirect impacts.
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the additional tariffs did not have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.
Global Conditions
The global automotive light vehicle industry is impacted by a number of factors, including global and regional economic conditions. At times in recent years, the global economy has experienced significant volatility, inflationary pressures and supply chain disruptions, which have a widespread adverse effect on the global automotive industry. These macroeconomic conditions have resulted in fluctuating demand and production disruptions, facility closures, labor shortages, work stoppages, and increased prices of inputs to our products. Rising costs of materials, labor, equipment and other inputs used to manufacture and sell our products, including freight and logistics costs, have adversely impacted, and may in the future adversely impact, operating costs and operating results. We continue to employ measures to mitigate the impact of cost increases through identification of sourcing and manufacturing efficiencies where possible, and commercial negotiations with our customers. However, we have been unable to fully mitigate or pass through the increases in our operating costs, which may continue in the future.
We are exposed to foreign currency risk due to the translation and remeasurement of the results of certain international operations into U.S. Dollars as part of the consolidation process. Therefore, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates can create volatility in the results of operations and may adversely affect our financial condition.
We have a global manufacturing footprint that enables us to serve our customers in the regions they operate and shift production between regions to remain competitive. There have been various ongoing geopolitical conflicts, such as the current conflicts between Russia and Ukraine and in the Middle East and heightened tensions in the Red Sea and in the South China Sea. These conflicts have interrupted ocean freight shipping and if prolonged or intensified, could have a substantial adverse effect on our financial results. Further, it is reasonably possible that certain political pressures, such as changes to international trade agreements, increases in tariffs, import quotas or other trade restrictions or actions, including export controls and other retaliatory responses to such actions, could continue to affect the operations of our OEM customers, resulting in reduced automotive production in certain regions or shifts in the mix of production to higher cost regions. See “—Tariffs and Global Trade Environment” above for further information on the impact of tariffs and the global trade environment. We, like other manufacturers, have a high proportion of fixed structural costs, and therefore relatively small changes in industry vehicle production can have a substantial effect on our financial results.
Light Vehicle Production Volumes
Our sales are driven by the number of vehicles produced by the automotive manufacturers, which is ultimately dependent on consumer demand for automotive vehicles, our content per vehicle, and other factors that may limit or otherwise impact production by us, our supply chain and our customers. According to the forecasting firm S&P Global Mobility (April 2026 release), global light vehicle production in the three months ended March 31, 2026, in the Company’s key markets of North America, Europe, China, Japan and South Korea, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, are shown below (in millions of units):

The S&P Global Mobility (April 2026 release) forecasted light vehicle production volume in the Company’s key markets for full year 2026 to decrease to 75.9 million units, a 2.1% decrease from full year 2025 light vehicle production volumes. Forecasted light vehicle production volumes are a component of the data we use in forecasting future business. However, these forecasts generally are updated monthly, and future forecasts have been and may continue to be significantly different from period to period due to changes in macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions or matters specific to the automotive industry. Further, due to differences in regional product mix at our manufacturing facilities, as well as material production schedules from our customers for our products on specific vehicle programs, our future forecasted results do not directly correlate with the global and/or regional light vehicle production forecasts of S&P Global Mobility or other third-party sources.
New Business Awards
We believe that innovation is an important element to gaining market acceptance of our products and strengthening our market position. During the first quarter of 2026, we secured automotive new business awards totaling $395 million. Automotive new business awards represent the aggregate projected lifetime revenue of new awards provided by our customers to Gentherm in the applicable period, with the value based on the price and volume projections received from each customer as of the award date. Although automotive new business awards are not firm customer orders, we believe that automotive new business awards are an indicator of future revenue. Automotive new business awards are not projections of revenue or future business as of March 31, 2026, the date of this Report or any other date. Customer projections regularly change over time, and we do not update our calculation of any automotive new business award after the date initially communicated. Automotive new business awards in the first quarter of 2026 also do not reflect, in particular, the impact of macroeconomic and geopolitical challenges on future business. Revenues resulting from automotive new business awards also are subject to additional risks and uncertainties that are included in this Report or incorporated by reference in “Forward-Looking Statements” above.
Stock Repurchase Program
In June 2024, the Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program (the “2024 Stock Repurchase Program”) to commence upon expiration of the Company’s prior stock repurchase program on June 30, 2024. Under the 2024 Stock Repurchase Program, the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $150.0 million of its issued and outstanding Common Stock over a three-year period, expiring June 30, 2027. Repurchases may be made, from time to time, in amounts and at prices the Company deems appropriate, subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements, debt covenants and other considerations.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company did not repurchase any shares. The 2024 Stock Repurchase Program had $110.1 million of repurchase authorization remaining as of March 31, 2026.
Reportable Segments
The Company has two reportable segments for financial reporting purposes: Automotive and Medical. See Note 15, “Segment Reporting,” to the consolidated condensed financial statements included in this Report for a description of our reportable segments as

well as their proportional contribution to the Company’s reported product revenues, significant segment expenses, operating income, and depreciation and amortization.

Product revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased 11.3% as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase in product revenues is due to favorable automotive volumes and favorable foreign currency impacts primarily attributable to the Euro and the Chinese Renminbi, partially offset by unfavorable pricing and unfavorable currency impacts primarily attributable to the Korean Won.

Cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased 10.9% as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase in cost of sales is primarily due to higher automotive volumes, unfavorable foreign currency impacts primarily attributable to the Euro, Mexican Peso, Czech Koruna and the Chinese Renminbi, higher quality costs and higher labor costs, partially offset by material purchasing savings and lower freight costs.

Income tax expense was $3.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 on earnings before income tax of $7.6 million, representing an effective tax rate of 44.6%. The effective tax rate differed from the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to the impact of income taxes on foreign earnings taxed at rates varying from the U.S. Federal statutory rate, unfavorable tax effects of the vesting of stock based compensation awards and the unfavorable impact of global intangible low-tax income.
Income tax expense was $2.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 on earnings before income tax of $2.1 million, representing an effective tax rate of 106.1%. The effective tax rate differed from the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to unfavorable tax effects of the vesting of stock based compensation awards and a valuation allowance established in the U.S. related to a capital loss carryforward.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
Our primary sources of liquidity and capital resources are cash flows from operations and borrowings available under our Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (defined below). Our cash requirements consist principally of working capital, capital expenditures, research and development, operating lease payments, income tax payments and general corporate purposes. We generally reinvest available cash flows from operations into our business, while opportunistically utilizing our authorized stock repurchase program. Further, we continuously evaluate acquisition and investment opportunities that will enhance our business strategies.
As of March 31, 2026, the Company had $177.4 million of cash and cash equivalents and $278.1 million of availability under our Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. We may issue debt or equity securities, which may provide an additional source of liquidity. However, there can be no assurance equity or debt financing will be available to us when we need it or, if available, the terms will be satisfactory to us and not dilutive to our then-current shareholders.
30
Table of Contents
We continue to expect to be able to move funds between different countries to manage our global liquidity needs without material adverse tax implications, subject to current monetary policies and the terms of the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. We utilize a combination of strategies, including dividends, cash pooling arrangements, intercompany loan repayments and other distributions and advances to provide the funds necessary to meet our global liquidity needs. There are no significant restrictions on the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other distributions to Gentherm Incorporated. As of March 31, 2026, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents held by our non-U.S. subsidiaries totaled $118.3 million. If additional non-U.S. cash was needed for our U.S. operations, we may be required to accrue and pay withholding if we were to distribute such funds from non-U.S. subsidiaries to the U.S.; however, based on our current liquidity needs and strategies, we do not anticipate a need to accrue and pay such additional amounts.
We currently believe that our cash and cash equivalents, borrowings available under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and cash flows from operations will be adequate to meet anticipated cash requirements for at least the next twelve months and the foreseeable future.

Credit Agreement
Gentherm, together with certain of its subsidiaries, maintain a revolving credit note (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) under its Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with a consortium of lenders and Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent (as amended by the First Amendment described below, the “Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”). The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement was entered into on June 10, 2022 and amends and restates in its entirety the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated June 27, 2019, by and among Gentherm, certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries, the lenders party thereto and the Agent. The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement has a maximum borrowing capacity of $500 million and matures on June 10, 2027. The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement contains covenants, that, among other things, (i) prohibit or limit the ability of the borrowers and any material subsidiary to incur additional indebtedness, create liens, pay dividends, make certain types of investments (including acquisitions), enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates, prepay other indebtedness, sell assets or enter into certain other transactions outside the ordinary course of business, and (ii) require that Gentherm maintain a minimum Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio and a maximum Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio (based on consolidated EBITDA for the applicable trailing four fiscal quarters) as of the end of any fiscal quarter.
On February 24, 2026, the Company entered into the First Amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “First Amendment”). The First Amendment amends the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to i) permit the Modine Transaction, ii) permit the incurrence, issuance or assumption of up to $400 million of additional term indebtedness in connection with the Modine Transaction, iii) release and/or remove certain borrower and guarantor entities that no longer exist or will be liquidated and iv) remove the credit spread adjustments related to the SOFR and Sterling Overnight Index Average rates.
As of March 31, 2026, the Company was in compliance with the terms of the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.
Modine Transaction
In connection with the Merger Agreement, Gentherm, SpinCo and a financial institution executed a 364-day bridge loan facility commitment letter, pursuant to which such financial institution committed to provide the Bridge Facility and the Backstop Commitment.
On February 24, 2026, the Company entered into the First Amendment, which terminated the Backstop Commitment. The Bridge Facility remains available but is expected to be replaced with permanent financing. If the Modine Transaction is consummated, any indebtedness incurred by SpinCo under the Bridge Facility or the permanent financing will become indebtedness of a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
Material Cash Requirements
In February 2026, we committed to a restructuring plan to realign our operating model and organizational structure to deliver on

key financial and operational priorities. We expect to incur cash restructuring costs of between $8.5 million and $9.5 million for employee severance costs.
In July 2025, we committed to a restructuring plan to further optimize our manufacturing footprint by realigning our global manufacturing capacity. We expect to incur cash restructuring costs of between $3 million and $4 million for employee severance and retention costs and $1 million of other transition costs primarily for machinery and equipment move and set up costs. Additionally, we expect to incur capital expenditures of between $1 million and $2 million.
In February 2025, we committed to a restructuring plan to further optimize our manufacturing footprint by realigning our manufacturing capacity in Europe. We expect to incur cash restructuring costs of between $4 million and $6 million for employee severance and retention costs and between $2 million and $3 million of other transition costs primarily for machinery and equipment move and set up costs. Additionally, we expect to incur capital expenditures of between $1 million and $2 million.
See Note 3, “Restructuring,” to the consolidated condensed financial statements included in this Report for additional information regarding these plans.
Except as described above and the requirements for the Modine Transaction described in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in this Report, there have been no material changes in our cash requirements since December 31, 2025, the end of fiscal year 2025. See Part II, Item 7 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 for additional information regarding our material cash requirements.
Effects of Inflation
The automotive component supply industry has historically been subject to inflationary pressures with respect to materials and labor. At times in recent years, the automotive industry has experienced significant volatility in the costs of certain materials and components, labor and transportation. Rising costs of materials, labor, equipment and other inputs used to manufacture and sell our products, including freight and logistics costs, have adversely impacted, and may in the future adversely impact, operating costs and operating results. The impact of tariffs and geopolitical conflicts could add to these inflationary pressures. Although the Company has developed and implemented strategies to mitigate the impact of higher material component costs and transportation costs through sourcing and manufacturing efficiencies where possible, these strategies together with commercial negotiations with Gentherm's customers and suppliers have not fully offset to date and may not fully offset our future cost increases. Such inflationary cost increase may increase the cash required to fund our operations by a material amount.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated condensed financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. For discussion of our significant accounting policies, see Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies or critical accounting estimates during the three months ended March 31, 2026. We are not presently aware of any events or circumstances that would require us to update our estimates, assumptions or revise the carrying value of our assets or liabilities. Our estimates may change, however, as new events occur and additional information is obtained. As a result, actual results may differ significantly from our estimates, and any such differences may be material to our financial statements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company is exposed to various market risks including, but not limited to, changes in foreign currency exchange rates, changes in interest rates and price fluctuations of certain material commodities. Market risks for changes in interest rates relate primarily to the Company's debt obligations under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. Foreign currency exchange risks are attributable to sales to foreign customers and purchases from foreign suppliers not denominated in a location’s functional currency, foreign plant operations, intercompany indebtedness, acquisitions denominated in foreign currencies, intercompany investments and include exposures to the Euro, Mexican Peso, Hungarian Forint, North Macedonian Denar, Ukrainian Hryvnia, Japanese Yen, Chinese Renminbi, Korean Won, Czech Koruna, Vietnamese Dong and Moroccan Dirham.
The Company regularly enters into derivative contracts with the objective of managing its financial and operational exposure arising from these risks by offsetting gains and losses on the underlying exposures with gains and losses on the financial instruments used to hedge them. The decision of whether and when to execute derivative financial instruments, along with the duration of the instrument, may vary from period to period depending on market conditions, the relative costs of the instruments and capacity to hedge. The duration is linked to the timing of the underlying exposure, with the connection between the two being regularly monitored. The Company does not enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes.
The Company’s designated hedging relationships are formally documented at the inception of the hedge, and hedges must be highly effective in offsetting changes to future cash flows on hedged transactions both at the inception of a hedge and on an ongoing basis to be designated for hedge accounting treatment. For derivative contracts that can be classified as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the change in the fair value of the derivative is recorded to accumulated other comprehensive loss in the consolidated condensed balance sheets. When the underlying hedge transaction is realized, the gain or loss included in accumulated other comprehensive loss is recorded in earnings in the consolidated condensed statements of income (loss) on the same line as the hedged item. Cash flows associated with derivatives are reported in net cash provided by operating activities in the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows.
Information related to the fair values of all derivative instruments in the consolidated condensed balance sheet as of March 31, 2026 is set forth in Note 10, “Financial Instruments” in the consolidated condensed financial statements included in this Report.

The table below presents principal cash flows and related weighted average interest rates by expected maturity dates for each of the Company’s debt obligations, excluding finance leases. The information is presented in U.S. Dollar equivalents, which is the Company’s reporting currency.

Based on the amounts outstanding as of March 31, 2026, a hypothetical 100 basis point change (increase or decrease) in interest rates would impact annual interest expense by $2.2 million. To hedge the Company's exposure to interest payment fluctuations on a portion of these borrowings, we entered into floating-to-fixed interest rate swap agreements with notional amounts totaling $100.0 million.
