	For the three months ended
	March 31, 2022		March 31, 2021


Provision for income taxes	$	7,588	$	20,281

Table of Contents

The decrease in total tax for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021 was predominantly related to the overall decrease in income before taxes, driven in part by the mark-to-market loss on our investment in Quanergy as discussed in Note 14: Fair Value Measures.

The provision for income taxes consists of (1) current tax expense, which relates primarily to our profitable operations in tax jurisdictions with limited or no net operating loss carryforwards and withholding taxes related to management fees, royalties, and the repatriation of foreign earnings; and (2) deferred tax expense (or benefit), which represents adjustments in book-to-tax basis differences primarily related to (a) book versus tax basis in intangible assets, (b) changes in net operating loss carryforwards, (c) changes in tax rates, and (d) changes in our assessment of the realizability of our deferred tax assets.

8. Net Income per Share

Basic and diluted net income per share are calculated by dividing net income by the number of basic and diluted weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding during the period. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 the weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding used to calculate basic and diluted net income per share were as follows:


	For the three months ended
	March 31, 2022	March 31, 2021
Basic weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding	157,422	157,764
Dilutive effect of stock options	473	708
Dilutive effect of unvested restricted securities	735	758
Diluted weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding	158,630	159,230

Certain potential ordinary shares were excluded from our calculation of diluted weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding because either they would have had an anti-dilutive effect on net income per share or they related to equity awards that were contingently issuable for which the contingency had not been satisfied. These potential ordinary shares were as follows:


	For the three months ended
	March 31, 2022	March 31, 2021
Anti-dilutive shares excluded	4	6
Contingently issuable shares excluded	1,002	950

9. Inventories

Outstanding letters of credit are issued primarily for the benefit of certain operating activities. As of March 31, 2022, no amounts had been drawn against these outstanding letters of credit.

In the three months ended March 31, 2021, in connection with the redemption of $750.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.25% senior notes due 2026 (the "6.25% Senior Notes"), we recognized a loss of $30.1 million, which included $23.4 million in premiums paid, with the remaining loss representing write-off of debt discounts and deferred financing costs.

Accrued interest associated with our outstanding debt is included as a component of accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, accrued interest totaled $63.1 million and $45.1 million, respectively.

12. Commitments and Contingencies

We are regularly involved in a number of claims and litigation matters that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although it is not feasible to predict the outcome of these matters, based upon our experience and current information known to us, we do not expect the outcome of these matters, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, and/or cash flows.

13. Shareholders' Equity

Treasury Shares

From time to time, our Board of Directors has authorized various share repurchase programs, which may be modified or terminated by the Board at any time. On January 20, 2022, we announced that our Board of Directors had authorized a new $500.0 million ordinary share repurchase program (the “January 2022 Program”), which replaced the previous $500.0 million program approved in July 2019, which had availability of $254.5 million as of December 31, 2021.

Quanergy

As of December 31, 2021, we held a $50.0 million investment in Quanergy Systems, Inc. ("Quanergy") Series B Preferred Stock. This equity investment did not have a readily determinable fair value and it was held using the measurement alternative prescribed in Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 321, Investments - Equity Securities. Such investments are measured at cost, less any impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer.

On June 22, 2021, Quanergy announced that it had entered into a definitive business combination agreement with CITIC Capital Acquisition Corp ("CITIC") (NYSE: CCAC). On July 16, 2021, CITIC filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4 with the SEC, the effectiveness of which was a condition to closing of the business combination. At December 31, 2021, we assessed our investment in Quanergy based on the proposed terms of the business combination agreement and concluded that there were no indicators of impairment.

On January 6, 2022, the related Registration Statement on Form S-4 was declared effective by the SEC. An Extraordinary General Meeting of shareholders of CITIC was held on January 31, 2022, at which time the business combination was approved. The business combination closed on February 8, 2022. Beginning on February 9, 2022, the combined company, which retained the name "Quanergy Systems, Inc.," was listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") under the ticker symbol QNGY.

Upon closing of the business combination, our investment in Quanergy comprised the following:

•5.0 million common shares, which represented the conversion of our $50 million Series B Preferred Stock investment (at a $10 per share implied valuation);

•750,000 unregistered common shares, representing a $7.5 million private investment in public equity ("PIPE") contribution; and

•2.5 million common shares (the "Warrant Shares"), representing the conversion of 2.5 million warrants provided by Quanergy as up-front consideration for a four-year technical and marketing support agreement (the "Support Agreement").

The 5.75 million common share investment in Quanergy (excluding the Warrant Shares) have a historical cost basis of $57.5 million. The Warrant Shares were converted at a share price of $7.05 per share (the closing market price on February 8, 2022), or approximately $17.6 million, which was recorded as deferred income. Refer to below discussion for additional details on the Support Agreement. Refer to the below table for a summary of our investment in Quanergy as of March 31, 2022,

In exchange for the Warrant Shares, we entered into the Support Agreement, whereby we agreed to provide technical and marketing assistance to Quanergy for a term of four years from the effective date of February 8, 2022. We will recognize the consideration ($17.6 million) for the Support Agreement on a straight-line basis over the term of the agreement. We recognized approximately $0.7 million of income in the three months ended March 31, 2022 and will recognize approximately $1.1 million of income each quarter through the end of the term of the Support Agreement.

Measured on a Nonrecurring Basis

We evaluated our goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment as of October 1, 2021 and determined that they were not impaired. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, no events or changes in circumstances occurred that would have triggered the need for an additional impairment review of these assets.

Credit Risk Related Contingent Features

We have agreements with our derivative counterparties that contain a provision whereby if we default on our indebtedness and repayment of the indebtedness has been accelerated by the lender, then we could also be declared in default on our derivative obligations.

As of March 31, 2022, the termination value of outstanding derivatives in a liability position, excluding any adjustment for non-performance risk, was $5.5 million. As of March 31, 2022, we had not posted any cash collateral related to these agreements. If we breach any of the default provisions on any of our indebtedness as described above, we could be required to settle our obligations under the derivative agreements at their termination values.

16. Acquisitions

Spear Power Systems

On November 19, 2021, we acquired all of the equity interests of Spear, a leader in electrification solutions that supports our newly-established Clean Energy Solutions business unit, for an aggregate purchase price of $113.7 million, subject to certain post-closing items, including the discounted present value of contingent consideration. As of March 31, 2022, the present value of this contingent consideration was $2.3 million. Any gains or losses resulting from adjustments to contingent consideration are recorded in restructuring and other charges, net. We are integrating Spear into the Sensing Solutions reportable segment.

As of March 31, 2022, the allocation of purchase price of Spear is preliminary and is based on management’s judgments after evaluating several factors, including preliminary valuation assessments of tangible and intangible assets. The final allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired will be completed when the final valuations are completed. Refer to Note 21: Acquisitions of the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2021 Annual Report for detailed information regarding the preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of December 31, 2021.

SmartWitness Holdings, Inc.

On November 19, 2021, we acquired all of the equity interests of SmartWitness Holdings, Inc. ("SmartWitness"), a privately held innovator of video telematics technology for heavy- and light-duty fleets, for an aggregate cash purchase price of $204.2 million, subject to certain post-closing items. In addition to the aggregate purchase price, we paid $8.6 million of cash at closing related to an employee retention arrangement, which was reflected as an operating cash outflow on our consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2021. We are integrating SmartWitness into the Performance Sensing reportable segment.

As of March 31, 2022, the allocation of purchase price of SmartWitness is preliminary and is based on management’s judgments after evaluating several factors, including preliminary valuation assessments of tangible and intangible assets. The final allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired will be completed when the final valuations are completed. Refer to Note 21: Acquisitions of the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2021 Annual Report for detailed information regarding the preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of December 31, 2021.

Elastic M2M Inc.

On February 11, 2022, we acquired all of the equity interests of Elastic M2M Inc. ("Elastic M2M") for an aggregate cash purchase price of $51.2 million, subject to certain post-closing items. In addition to the aggregate cash purchase price, the previous shareholders of Elastic M2M are entitled to up to $30.0 million additional acquisition-related incentive compensation, pending the completion of certain technical milestones in fiscal year 2022 and achievement of revenue targets in fiscal years 2022 and 2023. In the first quarter of 2022, we determined that $15.0 million of that acquisition-related incentive compensation was earned as all of the technical milestones were achieved. This amount is recorded in restructuring and other charges, net. We paid $7.5 million of this acquisition-related incentive compensation in the three months ended March 31, 2022, which is reflected as an operating cash outflow on our condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Elastic M2M is a privately-held innovator of connected intelligence for operational assets across heavy-duty transport, warehouse, supply chain and logistics, industrial, light-duty passenger car, and a variety of other industry segments. Elastic M2M primarily serves telematics service providers and resellers, enabling them to leverage Elastic M2M’s cloud platform and analytics capabilities to deliver sensor-based operational insights to their end users. This acquisition augments our cloud capabilities critical to delivering actionable sensor-based insights, an increasingly important capability in this fast-growing industry segment. We are integrating Elastic M2M into the Performance Sensing reportable segment.

Table of Contents

The purchase price of Elastic M2M has been primarily allocated to goodwill. The preliminary valuation of intangible assets is not yet available. We expect the preliminary valuation to be complete in the second quarter of 2022, at which time we will adjust the allocation to include definite-lived intangible assets. The final allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired will be completed when the final valuations are completed.

17. Segment Reporting

We present financial information for two reportable segments, Performance Sensing and Sensing Solutions. The Performance Sensing reportable segment consists of two operating segments, Automotive and HVOR, which meet the criteria for aggregation in FASB ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting. The Sensing Solutions reportable segment is also an operating segment.

Our operating segments are businesses that we manage as components of an enterprise, for which separate financial information is evaluated regularly by our chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.

An operating segment’s performance is primarily evaluated based on segment operating income, which excludes amortization of intangible assets, restructuring and other charges, net, certain costs associated with our strategic megatrend initiatives, and certain corporate costs or credits not associated with the operations of the segment, including share-based compensation expense and a portion of depreciation expense associated with assets recognized in connection with acquisitions. Corporate and other costs excluded from an operating (and reportable) segment’s performance are separately stated below and also include costs that are related to functional areas such as finance, information technology, legal, and human resources. We believe that segment operating income, as defined above, is an appropriate measure for evaluating the operating performance of our segments. However, this measure should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, operating income or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The accounting policies of each of our operating and reportable segments are materially consistent with those described in Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies of the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2021 Annual Report.

The following table presents net revenue and segment operating income for our reportable segments and other operating results not allocated to our reportable segments for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021:


	For the three months ended
	March 31, 2022		March 31, 2021

18. Subsequent Events

On April 22, 2022, we signed a stock purchase agreement to acquire Dynapower Company, LLC ("Dynapower"), a leading provider of high-voltage power conversion solutions for clean energy segments, for an aggregate cash purchase price of $580 million, subject to working capital and other adjustments. We expect to complete the acquisition in the third quarter of 2022, subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions. We intend to fund the transaction using available cash on hand.

defense applications. Dynapower also provides aftermarket sales and service to maintain its equipment in the field. We are acquiring Dynapower as a foundational addition to our Clean Energy Solutions strategy and complement to our recent acquisitions of GIGAVAC, Lithium Balance, and Spear.

On April 26, 2022, we announced that our Board had declared a quarterly dividend of $0.11 per share, payable on May 25, 2022 to shareholders of record as of May 11, 2022.

Cautionary Statements Concerning Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements may be identified by terminology such as "may," "will," "could," "should," "expect," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "predict," "project," "forecast," "continue," "intend," "plan," "potential," "opportunity," "guidance," and similar terms or phrases. Forward-looking statements involve, among other things, expectations, projections, and assumptions about future financial and operating results, objectives, business and market outlook, megatrends, priorities, growth, shareholder value, capital expenditures, cash flows, demand for products and services, share repurchases, and Sensata’s strategic initiatives, including those relating to acquisitions and dispositions and the impact of such transactions on our strategic and operational plans and financial results. These statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other important factors relating to our operations and business environment, and we can give no assurances that these forward-looking statements will prove to be correct.

A wide variety of potential risks, uncertainties, and other factors could materially affect our ability to achieve the results either expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, risks related to public health crises, instability and changes in the global markets, supplier interruption or non-performance, the acquisition of disposition of businesses, adverse conditions or competition in the industries upon which we are dependent, intellectual property, product liability, warranty, and recall claims, market acceptance of new product introductions and product innovations, labor disruptions or increased labor costs, and changes in existing environmental or safety laws, regulations, and programs.

Investors and others should carefully consider the foregoing factors and other uncertainties, risks and potential events including, but not limited to, those described in Item 1A: Risk Factors included in our 2021 Annual Report and as may be updated from time to time in Item 1A: Risk Factors in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q or other subsequent filings with the SEC. All such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we do not undertake any obligation to update these statements other than as required by law.

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations supplements, and should be read in conjunction with, the discussion in Item 7: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our 2021 Annual Report. The following discussion should also be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Amounts and percentages in the following discussions have been calculated based on unrounded numbers. Accordingly, certain amounts may not appear to recalculate due to the effect of rounding.

Overview

In the first quarter of 2022, our net revenue increased 3.5% from the first quarter of 2021. This revenue growth was primarily driven by outgrowth to market and revenue from acquisitions completed in 2021, offset somewhat by market declines. In addition, we continued to drive new business wins, most of which were in areas representing our megatrend initiatives, and which will help drive future revenue growth.

Operating income decreased $31.5 million to $125.9 million (12.9% of net revenue) in the first quarter of 2022, compared to $157.5 million (16.7% of net revenue) in the prior year period. Refer to discussion under the heading Results of Operations elsewhere in this Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A").

Income before taxes decreased to $30.0 million in the first quarter of 2022, compared to $74.0 million in the first quarter of 2021. Much of this decline related to a mark-to-market loss on our investment in Quanergy as discussed further under the heading Quanergy below. Global supply chain disruptions and shortages continue to pressure our margins; however, we have made progress in recovering some of these additional costs from our customers through increased pricing.

Acquisitions

In the first quarter of 2022, we completed the strategic acquisition of Elastic M2M for $51.2 million. Elastic M2M is a privately-held innovator of connected intelligence for operational assets across heavy-duty transport, warehouse, supply chain and logistics, industrial, light-duty passenger car, and a variety of other industry segments. Elastic M2M primarily serves telematics service providers and resellers, enabling them to leverage Elastic M2M’s cloud platform and analytics capabilities to deliver sensor-based operational insights to their end users. This acquisition augments our cloud capabilities critical to delivering actionable sensor-based insights, an increasingly important capability in this fast-growing industry segment.

capital and other adjustments. Dynapower's revenue is expected to exceed $100 million on an annualized basis in 2022 with projected revenue growth in excess of 30% over the next several years. We expect to complete the acquisition in the third quarter of 2022, subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.

Dynapower is a leader in power conversion systems including inverters, converters, and rectifiers for renewable energy generation, green hydrogen production, electric vehicle charging stations, and microgrid applications, as well as industrial and defense applications. Dynapower also provides aftermarket sales and service to maintain its equipment in the field. We are acquiring Dynapower as a foundational addition to our Clean Energy Solutions strategy and complement to our recent acquisitions of GIGAVAC, Lithium Balance, and Spear.

Quanergy

Since fiscal year 2016, we have held a $50.0 million investment in Quanergy Series B Preferred Stock, which was classified as an equity investment without a readily determinable fair value. As discussed in Note 14: Fair Value Measures included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, in the first quarter of 2022, Quanergy became a public company traded on the NYSE, as a result of a business combination with CITIC. Upon closing of the business combination, our $50 million investment in Quanergy Series B Preferred stock was converted to 5.0 million common shares of Quanergy (at a $10 per share implied valuation). We also contributed $7.5 million to a PIPE investment to Quanergy in exchange for 750,000 unregistered common shares. Our investment in these two instruments was $57.5 million at February 8, 2022.

Effective as of the date of the business combination (February 8, 2022), we entered into the Support Agreement with Quanergy in exchange for 2.5 million warrants, converted to common stock on that date, valued at $17.6 million as of close of business February 8, 2022. This additional investment of $17.6 million was recorded as deferred income and will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the four-year term of the agreement.

Accordingly, we held 8.25 million common shares of Quanergy on March 31, 2022, with a carrying value of $75.1 million. The share price of Quanergy on March 31, 2022 was $1.84 per share, representing a market value of $15.2 million. As a result, we recorded a $59.9 million mark-to-market adjustment loss on this investment in the first quarter of 2022, which was recorded in other, net.

On April 26, 2022, we announced that our Board had declared a quarterly dividend of $0.11 per share, payable on May 25, 2022 to shareholders of record as of May 11, 2022.

Excluding a decrease of 0.6% attributed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and an increase of 4.1% due to the effect of acquisitions, net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was flat on an organic basis. However, we achieved market outgrowth of 790 basis points in the three months ended March 31, 2022. Organic revenue growth (or decline), discussed throughout this MD&A, is a financial measure not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Refer to the section entitled Non-GAAP Financial Measures below for additional information related to our use of organic revenue growth (or decline).

Performance Sensing

Performance Sensing net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 increased 0.4% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. Excluding a decrease of 0.7% attributed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and an increase of 4.8% due to the effect of acquisitions, Performance Sensing net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 decreased 3.7% on an organic basis, representing market outgrowth of 650 basis points.

Automotive net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 declined 6.4% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021.

HVOR net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 grew 21.1% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. Excluding a decline of 0.6% attributed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and growth of 19.2% due to the effect of acquisitions, HVOR net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 grew 2.5% on an organic basis, representing 1,340 basis points of market outgrowth in the quarter.

Sensing Solutions

Sensing Solutions net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 increased 13.2% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. Excluding a decline of 0.5% attributed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and growth of 2.1% due to the effect of acquisitions, Sensing Solutions net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 increased 11.6% on an organic basis.

Cost of revenue

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, cost of revenue as a percentage of net revenue decreased slightly from the three months ended March 31, 2021. The most significant drivers of cost of revenue as a percentage of net revenue in the first quarter of 2022, which largely offset, were the favorable effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and productivity headwinds. Increased costs related to industry-wide supply chain shortages were largely offset by recovery from customers in the form of pricing increases.

Table of Contents

Research and development expense

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, research and development ("R&D") expense increased from the three months ended March 31, 2021 primarily as a result of (1) higher spend to support megatrend growth initiatives and (1) incremental R&D expense related to acquired businesses. R&D expense related to megatrends during the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $16.4 million, an increase of $5.1 million from the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Selling, general and administrative expense

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expense increased from the three months ended March 31, 2021, primarily as a result of (1) incremental SG&A expense related to acquired businesses, including related transaction costs, (2) higher selling costs, and (3) higher share-based compensation, partially offset by the favorable impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Amortization of intangible assets

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, amortization expense increased from the three months ended March 31, 2021 primarily due to increased intangibles from recent acquisitions partially offset by the effect of the economic benefit amortization method.

Restructuring and other charges, net

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, restructuring and other charges, net increased from the three months ended March 31, 2021. This increase is primarily due to acquisition-related incentive compensation of $15.0 million related to Elastic M2M milestones which were met in the first quarter partially offset by a $6.2 million reduction in the liability for contingent consideration for Spear. Refer to Note 5: Restructuring and Other Charges, Net of our condensed consolidated financial statements, included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for additional information on our restructuring and other charges, net.

Operating income

In the three months ended March 31, 2022, operating income decreased compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, primarily due to (1) increased restructuring and other charges as described above, (2) higher selling costs, (3) increased amortization expense as described above, (4) higher spend to support our megatrends initiatives, and (5) higher share-based compensation, partially offset by the favorable effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Acquired businesses had a minor net impact on our operating income in the first quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2021.

Interest expense, net

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, interest expense, net increased from the three months ended March 31, 2021, primarily as a result of interest expense on the 4.0% Senior Notes, which were issued on March 29, 2021 and April 8, 2021 partially offset by the reduced interest expense resulting from our March 5, 2021 redemption of the 6.25% Senior Notes.

Other, net

Other, net primarily includes currency remeasurement gains and losses on net monetary assets, gains and losses on foreign currency and commodity forward contracts not designated as hedging instruments, losses related to debt refinancing, and the portion of our net periodic benefit cost excluding service cost. In the three months ended March 31, 2022, other, net represented a net loss of $50.5 million, an increase of $11.1 million compared to a net loss of $39.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021. This increase was primarily due to $59.3 million in mark-to-market losses on equity investments, primarily related to Quanergy, partially offset by the non-recurrence of $30.1 million loss on debt financing related to the redemption of our 6.25% Senior Notes in the first quarter of 2021 and increased gains from our commodity forward contracts.

Provision for income taxes

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, provision for income taxes decreased $12.7 million from the three months ended March 31, 2021, predominantly related to the overall decrease in income before tax, driven in part by a $59.9 million mark-to-market loss on our investment in Quanergy.

and the repatriation of foreign earnings; and (2) deferred tax expense (or benefit), which represents adjustments in book-to-tax basis differences primarily related to (a) book versus tax basis in intangible assets, (b) changes in net operating loss carryforwards, (c) changes in tax rates, and (d) changes in our assessment of the realizability of our deferred tax assets.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This section provides additional information regarding certain non-GAAP financial measures, including organic revenue growth (or decline), adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share ("EPS"), free cash flow, net leverage ratio, and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA"), which are used by our management, Board of Directors, and investors. We use these non-GAAP financial measures internally to make operating and strategic decisions, including the preparation of our annual operating plan, evaluation of our overall business performance, and as a factor in determining compensation for certain employees.

The use of our non-GAAP financial measures has limitations. They should be considered as supplemental in nature and are not intended to be considered in isolation from, or as an alternative to, reported net revenue growth (or decline), operating income, operating margin, net income, diluted EPS, operating cash flows, total debt, finance lease and other financing obligations, or EBITDA, respectively, calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, our measures of organic revenue growth (or decline), adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, adjusted EPS, free cash flow, net leverage ratio, and adjusted EBITDA may not be the same as, or comparable to, similar non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies.

Organic revenue growth (or decline)

Organic revenue growth (or decline) is defined as the reported percentage change in net revenue, calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding the period-over-period impact of foreign currency exchange rate differences as well as the net impact of material acquisitions and divestitures for the 12-month period following the respective transaction date(s).

We believe that organic revenue growth (or decline) provides investors with helpful information with respect to our operating performance, and we use organic revenue growth (or decline) to evaluate our ongoing operations as well as for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that organic revenue growth (or decline) provides useful information in evaluating the results of our business because it excludes items that we believe are not indicative of ongoing performance or that we believe impact comparability with the prior-year period.

Adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, and adjusted EPS

We define adjusted operating income as operating income, determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding certain non-GAAP adjustments which are described below. Adjusted operating margin is calculated by dividing adjusted operating income by net revenue determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We define adjusted net income as follows: net income (or loss) determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding certain non-GAAP adjustments which are described in Non-GAAP Adjustments below. Adjusted EPS is calculated by dividing adjusted net income by the number of diluted weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding in the period.

Management uses adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, and adjusted EPS as measures of operating performance, for planning purposes (including the preparation of our annual operating budget), to allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of our business, to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, in communications with our Board of Directors and investors concerning our financial performance, and as factors in determining compensation for certain employees. We believe investors and securities analysts also use these non-GAAP financial measures in their evaluation of our performance and the performance of other similar companies. These non-GAAP financial measures are not measures of liquidity.

Free cash flow

Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less additions to property, plant and equipment and capitalized software. We believe free cash flow is useful to management and investors as a measure of cash generated by business operations that will be used to repay scheduled debt maturities and can be used to, among other things, fund acquisitions, repurchase ordinary shares, and (or) accelerate the repayment of debt obligations.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (or loss), determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding interest expense, net, provision for (or benefit from) income taxes, depreciation expense, amortization of intangible assets, and the following non-GAAP adjustments, if applicable: (1) restructuring related and other, (2) financing and other transaction costs, (3) deferred

Table of Contents

loss or gain on derivative instruments, and (4) step-up inventory amortization. Refer to Non-GAAP Adjustments below for additional discussion of these adjustments.

Net leverage ratio

Net leverage ratio represents net debt (total debt, finance lease and other financing obligations less cash and cash equivalents) divided by last twelve months ("LTM") adjusted EBITDA. We believe that the net leverage ratio is a useful measure to management and investors in understanding trends in our overall financial condition.

Non-GAAP adjustments

Many of our non-GAAP adjustments relate to a series of strategic initiatives developed by our management aimed at better positioning us for future revenue growth and an improved cost structure. These initiatives have been modified from time to time to reflect changes in overall market conditions and the competitive environment facing our business. These initiatives include, among other items, acquisitions, divestitures, restructurings of certain business, supply chain, or corporate activities, and various financing transactions. We describe these adjustments in more detail below, each of which is net of current tax impacts, as applicable.

•Restructuring related and other: includes charges, net related to certain restructuring and other exit activities as well as other costs (or income) that we believe are either unique or unusual to the identified reporting period, and that we believe impact comparisons to prior period operating results. Such costs include charges related to optimization of our manufacturing processes to increase productivity. This type of activity occurs periodically, however each action is unique, discrete, and driven by various facts and circumstances. Such amounts are excluded from internal financial statements and analyses that management uses in connection with financial planning, and in its review and assessment of our operating and financial performance, including the performance of our segments.

•Financing and other transaction costs: includes losses or gains related to debt financing transactions, losses or gains related to the divestiture of a business, and costs incurred, including for legal, accounting, and other professional services, that are directly related to an acquisition, divestiture, or equity financing transaction.

•Deferred loss or gain on derivative instruments: includes unrealized losses or gains on derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting as well as the impact of commodity prices on our raw material costs relative to the strike price on our commodity forward contracts.

•Step-up depreciation and amortization: includes depreciation and amortization expense associated with the step-up in fair value of assets acquired in connection with a business combination (e.g., property, plant and equipment, definite-lived intangible assets, and inventories).

•Deferred taxes and other tax related: includes adjustments for book-to-tax basis differences due primarily to the step-up in fair value of fixed and intangible assets and goodwill, the utilization of net operating losses, and adjustments to our valuation allowance in connection with certain acquisitions and tax law changes. Other tax related items include certain adjustments to unrecognized tax benefits and withholding tax on repatriation of foreign earnings.

•Amortization of debt issuance costs. We adjust our results recorded in accordance with U.S. GAAP by the amortization of debt issuance costs, which are deferred as a contra-liability against our long-term debt, net on the consolidated balance sheets and which are reflected in interest expense on the consolidated statements of operations.

•Where applicable, the current income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments.

Our definition of adjusted net income excludes the deferred provision for (or benefit from) income taxes and other tax related items described above. As we treat deferred income taxes as an adjustment to compute adjusted net income, the deferred income tax effect associated with the reconciling items presented below would not change adjusted net income for any period presented.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we held cash and cash equivalents in the following regions (amounts have been calculated based on unrounded numbers; accordingly, certain amounts may not appear to recalculate due to the effect of rounding):

Total	$	1,608.5	$	1,709.0

The amount of cash and cash equivalents held in these geographic regions fluctuates throughout the year due to a variety of factors, such as our use of intercompany loans and dividends and the timing of cash receipts and disbursements in the normal course of business. Our earnings are not considered to be permanently reinvested in certain jurisdictions in which they were earned. We recognize a deferred tax liability on these unremitted earnings to the extent the remittance of such earnings cannot be recovered in a tax-free manner.

Cash Flows:

The table below summarizes our primary sources and uses of cash for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. We have derived this summarized statements of cash flows from the condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Amounts in the table below have been calculated based on unrounded numbers. Accordingly, certain amounts may not appear to recalculate due to the effect of rounding.

Table of Contents

Operating activities. Net cash provided by operating activities decreased in the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, primarily due to increased raw material purchases in order to maximize production flexibility given widespread parts shortages in our supply chain and in anticipation of volume increases later in the year, a cash payment of $7.5 million for earned acquisition-related incentive compensation related to Elastic M2M, and timing of supplier payments and customer receipts.

Investing activities. Net cash used in investing activities increased in the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily due to cash paid for the acquisitions of Elastic M2M and the $7.5 million PIPE investment in Quanergy. In fiscal year 2022, we anticipate capital expenditures of approximately $165.0 million to $175.0 million, which we expect to be funded from cash on hand.

Financing activities. In the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash used in financing activities increased primarily due to $67.3 million cash paid for share repurchases following the resumption of our program in the fourth quarter of 2021, partially offset by the nonrecurrence of $31.1 million of payments related to debt financing in the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Indebtedness and Liquidity

As of March 31, 2022, we had $4.3 billion in gross indebtedness, which includes finance lease and other financing obligations and excludes debt discounts, premiums, and deferred financing costs.

Capital Resources

Senior Secured Credit Facilities

The credit agreement governing our secured credit facility (as amended, the "Credit Agreement") provides for the Senior Secured Credit Facilities consisting of the Term Loan, the Revolving Credit Facility, and incremental availability (the "Accordion") under which additional secured credit facilities could be issued under certain circumstances.

Sources of liquidity

Our sources of liquidity include cash on hand, cash flows from operations, and available capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2022, we had $416.1 million available under the Revolving Credit Facility, net of $3.9 million of obligations in respect of outstanding letters of credit issued thereunder. Outstanding letters of credit are issued primarily for the benefit of certain operating activities. As of March 31, 2022, no amounts had been drawn against these outstanding letters of credit. Availability under the Accordion varies each period based on our attainment of certain financial metrics as set forth in the terms of the Credit Agreement and the indentures under which our senior notes were issued (the "Senior Notes Indentures"). As of March 31, 2022, availability under the Accordion was approximately $1.0 billion.

We believe, based on our current level of operations and taking into consideration the restrictions and covenants included in the Credit Agreement and Senior Notes Indentures, that the sources of liquidity described above will be sufficient to fund our operations, capital expenditures, ordinary share repurchases, and debt service for at least the next twelve months. However, we cannot make assurances that our business will generate sufficient cash flows from operations or that future borrowings will be available to us in an amount sufficient to enable us to pay our indebtedness or to fund our other liquidity needs. Further, our highly-leveraged nature may limit our ability to procure additional financing in the future.

Our ability to raise additional financing, and our borrowing costs, may be impacted by short- and long-term debt ratings assigned by independent rating agencies, which are based, in significant part, on our performance as measured by certain credit metrics such as interest coverage and leverage ratios. As of April 20, 2022, Moody’s Investors Service’s corporate credit rating for STBV was Ba2 with a stable outlook, and Standard & Poor’s corporate credit rating for STBV was BB+ with a stable outlook. Any future downgrades to STBV's credit ratings may increase our future borrowing costs but will not reduce availability under the Credit Agreement.

Restrictions and Covenants

The Credit Agreement provides that if our senior secured net leverage ratio exceeds a specified level we are required to use a portion of our excess cash flow, as defined in the Credit Agreement, generated by operating, investing, or financing activities to prepay some or all of the outstanding borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities. The Credit Agreement also requires mandatory prepayments of the outstanding borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities upon certain asset dispositions and casualty events, in each case subject to certain reinvestment rights, and upon the incurrence of certain indebtedness (excluding any permitted indebtedness). These provisions were not triggered during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Table of Contents

The Credit Agreement and the Senior Notes Indentures contain restrictions and covenants that limit the ability of our wholly-owned subsidiary, STBV, and certain of its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur subsequent indebtedness, sell assets, pay dividends, and make other restricted payments. For a full discussion of these restrictions and covenants, refer to Part II, Item 7: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Capital Resources included in our 2021 Annual Report. These restrictions and covenants, which are subject to important exceptions and qualifications set forth in the Credit Agreement and Senior Notes Indentures, were taken into consideration when we established our share repurchase programs and will be evaluated periodically with respect to future potential funding of those programs. As of March 31, 2022, we believe we were in compliance with all covenants and default provisions under our credit arrangements.

Share repurchase programs

From time to time, our Board of Directors has authorized various share repurchase programs, which may be modified or terminated by our Board at any time. We currently have an authorized $500.0 million share repurchase program (the "January 2022 Program") under which approximately $449.5 million remained available as of March 31, 2022.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

For a discussion of the critical accounting policies that require the use of significant judgments and estimates by management, refer to Part II, Item 7: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates included in our 2021 Annual Report.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

No significant changes to our market risk have occurred since December 31, 2021. For a discussion of market risks affecting us, refer to Part II, Item 7A: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk included in our 2021 Annual Report.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures.

The required certifications of our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Chief Accounting Officer are included as exhibits to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The disclosures set forth in this Item 4 contain information concerning the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures and changes in internal control over financial reporting referred to in these certifications. These certifications should be read in conjunction with this Item 4 for a more complete understanding of the matters covered by the certifications.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

With the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Chief Accounting Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2022. The term "disclosure controls and procedures," as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2022, our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Chief Accounting Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Table of Contents

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, even an effective system of internal control over financial reporting can only provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our internal controls over financial reporting are subject to various inherent limitations, including cost limitations, judgments used in decision making, assumptions about the likelihood of future events, the soundness of our systems, the possibility of human error, and the risk of fraud. Moreover, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may be inadequate because of changes in conditions and the risk that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate over time.
