2022 ANNUAL REPORT 1

Dear Fellow Shareholders:Amphenol delivered impressive results in 2022, a clear
reflection of our team’s ability to perform strongly in any
market environment. Despite the multitude of obstacles
that have arisen throughout the past three years, ourentrepreneurial organization has consistently reacted toensure that we can continue to support our customers
across our diversified end markets and thereby maintainour robust competitive position, while at the same timedelivering strong operating results and record financial
performance for our shareholders.

35 years ago. It was at that time beginning in 1987 that
we unleashed the power of Amphenol’s organization byplacing clear ownership and accountability in the handsof our General Managers around the world. Since thattime, the Amphenolian culture of entrepreneurship has
become our greatest asset, enabling us to adapt and excel
regardless of the direction of the electronics revolution
or the dynamics in the world economy. My greatest
priority as CEO during the last 14 years has been to
secure and scale this unique and powerful culture. I am
proud that we have been extremely successful in doing
so thus far. Indeed, when we started on this journeyof entrepreneurship 35 years ago, we had fewer than
20 General Managers delivering less than $500 millionof sales; today, we have approximately 130 General
Managers delivering $12.6 billion of sales. Yet, despite
this significant expansion, the Amphenol General Manager
of today is the same as the Amphenol General Manager
of 35 years ago – an entrepreneurial leader who owns
every function within his or her organization and thus
is fully accountable to our customers, employees andshareholders for that particular operation’s performance.
This clear combination of ownership and accountability
within our General Managers lies at the root of ourlong-term success.
In order to scale the Company while securing theconsistency of our culture, we have continued to evolve ourorganization in support of these General Managers. Notably,
these efforts included the formation of three global Divisions
led by Division Presidents at the beginning of 2022. These
Division Presidents, together with our 12 Group General
Managers, enable our General Managers to achieve the2022 marked Amphenol’s ninetieth year. Arthur Schmitt
founded The American Phenolic Corporation in 1932 to
produce molded tube sockets, a critical component enabling
radios, the vanguard device of the electronics revolutionof that era. From that humble beginning 90 years ago,
Amphenol has grown to become a global Fortune 500
company with $12.6 billion in sales and approximately
91,000 employees worldwide, providing interconnect,
sensor and antenna solutions to virtually every application
across the electronics industry. Our mission to Enable theElectronics Revolution has not wavered since the earliest
days of our company’s existence.
While there have been many changes over theseninety years, the most formative transformation of ourcompany was the creation of our entrepreneurial culture
2 AMPHENOL CORPORATION

Our people are the drivers of our innovationand performance.

superior results that we have come to expect, while at thesame time stimulating extensive collaboration among ourworldwide operations and providing even greater drive to
our already successful acquisition program.
Over these past three challenging years since 2019, ourunique Amphenolian culture has enabled exceptional
performance, with Amphenol growing sales by more than
50% and increasing earnings per share (EPS) by more than
60%. We did this all while remaining nimble and lean, with
our headcount increasing by just 23% during this same
period. Our performance in 2022 continued our outstanding
trend of delivering record performance across our business:• Sales grew by 16% in U.S. dollars, 19% in constantcurrencies and 15% organically, reaching a record$12.6 billion;• Adjusted Diluted EPS grew by 21% to a record $3.00;• Operating and Free Cash Flow were a record$2.2 billion and $1.8 billion, respectively; and• We returned more than $1.2 billion to
our shareholders.
These strong results represent a continuation of ourlong-term outperformance. In fact, since 2012, wehave grown our sales and Adjusted Diluted EPS at acompound annual rate of 11% and 13%, respectively. Most
importantly, we entered 2023 in the strongest financial
position in the history of the Company, with $4 billion in
cash and availability, a leverage ratio of 1.0x and a truly
global and resilient operating platform.
Creating Shareholder Value Year After Year
How are we able to deliver this exceptional and consistentlong-term performance? Our leadership team works
closely with a broad range of customers across theelectronics industry to develop enabling interconnect
technologies that solve our customers’ problems. Ouragile General Managers can react in real time to changes
in the marketplace and to narrowly tailor their offerings to
the needs of each customer. We do this across our broad
and balanced end markets, and with one of the widest
ranges of interconnect, sensor and antenna offeringsin the industry. Over time, our leading technologies,
combined with a sharp customer focus and detailed market
knowledge, have allowed us to gain share and expand our
product solutions to new areas of the interconnect market.

Our Values
EthicalWe do the right thing, always. Maintaining our integrity
and reputation will always be our priority.

DiverseDiversity of our markets, products, geographies andworkforce is a key pillar of our continued success. We
encourage and embrace diverse perspectives as theylead to better long-term outcomes for our business.

Empowered
Our culture of ownership and accountability empowers
our people to achieve industry-leading results.

Innovative
We are curious, focused and agile. These traits enable
us to develop new solutions that solve our customers’
diverse needs.

Sustainable
Sustainable business practices are at the core of how
we conduct our operations. We believe that adopting
sustainable business practices is not just the right thing
to do as a global company, it is simply good business.

Balancing risk is another way we seek to deliverconsistent performance over time. One way we manage
risk is through our diversification across products andend markets. Amphenol operates in eight diverse end
markets – Automotive, Broadband, Commercial Aerospace,
IT Datacom, Industrial, Military, Mobile Devices andMobile Networks – and we consistently strive to maintaina balanced exposure across these markets. We also focus
on maintaining a balanced mix of business across the2022 ANNUAL REPORT 3

longer-cycle end markets like Automotive, Commercial
Aerospace, Industrial and Military, and the shorter-cycle
end markets like Broadband, IT Datacom, Mobile Devices
and Mobile Networks. Another way we manage risk isthrough our globally diverse manufacturing footprint.
We have 240 manufacturing facilities across approximately
40 countries. This diverse global footprint allows us to
be close to our customers, while also limiting the risk ofoverexposure to any one country or region.
We also create significant value through our highly
successful acquisition program. Over the past 10 years,
Amphenol has acquired approximately 50 companies.
Each of these new businesses has added great people,
high-technology product capabilities and complementary
market positions, enabling us to expand the reach of ourinterconnect offerings for customers across our diversified
end markets. Our acquisition strategy has been a consistentvalue creator for us because we buy great companies andkeep them that way once they become part of Amphenol.
Our structure allows us to bring these new family members
into Amphenol as they are, with their people, processes,
technologies, brands and customers intact, rather thanadopting the more common, but often riskier, approach ofrestructuring and integrating newly acquired businesses.
Over time, these newly acquired businesses then benefit
from access to our broad customer contacts, access to
low-cost manufacturing, deep management know-how andfinancial discipline.
In 2022, we added two companies to the Amphenol family,
NPI Solutions and Integrated Cable Assembly Holdings(ICA). In June, we acquired NPI Solutions, a manufacturerof cable assemblies and value-add interconnect assemblies
for industrial applications with a particular focus on
semiconductor manufacturing equipment. In September,
we acquired ICA, a manufacturer of a broad array ofcable assemblies for a diverse range of applications in
the industrial markets. In January 2023, we also closed
on the acquisition of Control Measure Regulation Group(CMR) and announced an agreement to acquire the NorthIn September 2022, we complemented our solutions for theindustrial market with the acquisition of ICA.
4 AMPHENOL CORPORATIONIn January 2023, we acquired CMR, a manufacturer ofcomplex interconnect assemblies.
American cable and global base station antenna businessof RFS. CMR adds to our expertise in the manufacturingof cable assemblies and complex interconnect assemblies
primarily for the heavy-equipment vehicle market, while
RFS will expand our offering of interconnect and antennas
to mobile network operators. These new family members
bring complementary capabilities to our customers andstrengthen our business by adding outstanding,entrepreneurial management teams to Amphenol.
Ensuring Our Business is Sustainable
We remain highly focused on ensuring that everything we do
supports the long-term, sustainable success of our business.
In addition to driving consistent operating results, we also
support this long-term success by valuing and respecting
our employees, giving back to the communities in which we
operate and minimizing our impact on the environment. Our
people are the drivers of our innovation and performance;
thus, we constantly strive to create an environment where
they feel valued but also where they can develop, learn
and improve as Amphenolians. Just as we value diversity
in our business, we also value and celebrate the diversity
in our workforce as we know that having a multitude ofperspectives leads our team to make the best decisions forour business. Our workforce reflects our global diversity,with 57% of our employees located in Asia, 26% in North
America, 16% in Europe and 1% in the rest of the world at
the end of 2022. In addition, women represented 27% of
our core management team and approximately half of ourworldwide workforce.
Giving back to the communities in which we operatealso supports our long-term success. While Amphenol isa global company, each of our operations is truly local,
with a management team and workforce that is generally
drawn from the surrounding community, ensuring that ourbusiness units are deeply rooted in the places where theirteam members live. Our General Managers and their teams
are empowered to make decisions about how to supportand improve their communities. Many of these actions arehighlighted in our annual Sustainability Report.
We also know that ensuring a long-term sustainable businessmeans limiting the impact our business has on the world’s
environment. Towards that end, in 2019, we establishedeight sustainability goals in line with the United Nations
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). I am proud to saythat we achieved all eight of these goals as of the end of2022. As we look to make further progress, we are alsoestablishing eight new goals, while continuing to carefully
review our emissions. In addition to reducing our own
impact, we are extremely proud of the many significant
ways that our products continue to enable decarbonization.
Our engineers are working around the world to ensurethat our customers can create the next generation ofsystems and equipment to reduce carbon output – whether
through high-power connectors supporting electrified drive
trains in passenger and commercial vehicles, temperature
sensors and complex interconnect assemblies helping toensure performance and safety in next-generation batteriesor leading high-reliability interconnects integrated into
alternative energy generation equipment. This is not only
good for the world’s environment but represents great longterm business for Amphenol.

Electronics Revolution, and our business is supported by anumber of key long-term growth trends which include:• Clean and Efficient: Environmentally friendly and more
power efficient• Connected and Mobile: Always on and available
anywhere• High Speed: Increased bandwidth, 5G capable andbeyond• Increased Complexity: Multiple connections,interconnect, sensors and antennas• Harsh Environment: Ruggedized for extreme vibration,
temperature and pressure
Amphenol has capitalized on this revolution in electronics
for the past 90 years and we believe the years aheadpresent even greater opportunities.

We value and celebrate the diversity in our workforce.

Giving back to our communities supports ourlong-term success.

As we move into 2023, our team’s drive to maximize
performance and deliver value to our customers puts us ina strong position to outperform our industry regardless ofthe market environment. We remain committed to driving
growth, relentlessly focusing on costs, complementing
our solutions with new acquisitions, valuing our people,
supporting our communities and ensuring the long-termsustainability of Amphenol. As we end another successful
year in 2022, I want to thank all of the approximately
91,000 Amphenolians around the world for their
dedication, commitment and hard work.

Our Future Remains Bright
While the past few years have been marked by many
challenges, our team continues to perform at the highest
levels, delivering outstanding results in any environment.
We come out of 2022 stronger than ever, and weare well positioned to capitalize on the wide array ofopportunities across the electronics industry. Regardless ofthe economic environment, electronics have continued toproliferate across virtually every industry, enabling further

PART I
Item 1. Business
GeneralAmphenol Corporation is one of the world’s largest designers, manufacturers and marketers of electrical, electronic
and fiber optic connectors and interconnect systems, antennas, sensors and sensor-based products and coaxial and highspeed specialty cable. The Company estimates, based on recent reports of industry analysts, that worldwide sales ofinterconnect and sensor-related products were approximately $235 billion in 2022.
Certain predecessor businesses of the Company were founded in 1932, and the Company was incorporated under
the laws of the State of Delaware in 1986. The Company’s Class A Common Stock (“Common Stock”) began tradingon the New York Stock Exchange in 1991.
Reportable Business Segments
The Company’s strategy is to provide our customers with comprehensive design capabilities, a broad selection of
products and a high level of quality and service on a worldwide basis, while maintaining continuing programs of
productivity improvement and cost control. Effective January 1, 2022, the Company aligned its businesses into three
newly formed reportable business segments: (i) Harsh Environment Solutions, (ii) Communications Solutions and (iii)Interconnect and Sensor Systems. This new alignment, which replaced our historical reportable business segments,
reinforces the Company’s entrepreneurial culture and the clear accountability of each of our business unit generalmanagers, while enhancing the scalability of Amphenol’s business for the future. All businesses previously reported in
the Interconnect Products and Assemblies segment have been aligned with one of the three newly formed segments. All
businesses previously reported in the Cable Products and Solutions segment have been aligned with our newly formed
Communications Solutions segment.

2

A description of each of our newly formed reportable business segments is as follows:•

Harsh Environment Solutions – the Harsh Environment Solutions segment designs, manufactures andmarkets a broad range of ruggedized interconnect products, including connectors and interconnect systems,
printed circuits and printed circuit assemblies and other products.

•

Communications Solutions – the Communications Solutions segment designs, manufactures and markets a
broad range of connector and interconnect systems, including high speed, radio frequency, power, fiber
optic and other products, together with antennas.

•

Interconnect and Sensor Systems – the Interconnect and Sensor Systems segment designs, manufactures andmarkets a broad range of sensors, sensor-based systems, connectors and value-add interconnect systems.

The following table provides a summary of the end markets that we service and our key products within each of thethree reportable business segments:

In conjunction with the new alignment of our business, the Company appointed three new segment managers to lead
their respective reportable business segments, each reporting directly to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The
Company began reporting under its new reportable segments in connection with its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for
the quarterly period ended March 31, 2022 and for each quarterly period thereafter. Throughout this Annual Report, theCompany is reporting under the new reportable segments structure, which includes the recasting of relevant segment
information for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, in order to enable year-over-year segment comparisons.
For further details related to the Company’s reportable business segments, information regarding the Company’s
operations and results by reportable segment, as well as the Company’s net sales and long-lived assets by geographic
area, refer to Note 13 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Reportable Business Segments prior to 2022
Through December 31, 2021, the Company operated through two reporting segments: (i) Interconnect Products andAssemblies and (ii) Cable Products and Solutions. The Interconnect Products and Assemblies segment primarily
designed, manufactured and marketed a broad range of connector and connector systems, value-add products and otherproducts, including antennas and sensors, used in a wide range of applications in a diverse set of end markets.
Interconnect products included connectors which, when attached to an electrical, electronic or fiber optic cable, a printed
circuit board or other device, facilitate transmission of power or signals. Value-add systems generally consisted of asystem of cable, flexible circuits or printed circuit boards and connectors, antennas or sensors for linking electronicequipment. The Cable Products and Solutions segment primarily designed, manufactured and marketed cable, value-add
products and components for use primarily in the broadband communications and information technology markets, aswell as certain applications in other markets.
COVID-19 Pandemic
Since early 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted our offices and manufacturing facilities around the world,
as well as the facilities of our suppliers, customers and our customers’ contract manufacturers. These disruptions haveincluded, and may continue to include, government regulations that inhibit our ability to operate certain of our facilities
in the ordinary course, travel restrictions, supplier constraints, supply chain interruptions, logistics challenges andlimitations, labor disruptions and reduced demand from certain customers. During much of 2022, COVID-19 outbreaks
in China resulted in local or regional government-imposed lockdowns and restrictions, which impacted the ability ofseveral of our operations and manufacturing facilities to operate in the ordinary course. As of December 31, 2022, there
continue to be isolated COVID-19 outbreaks in certain regions of the world, particularly in China, but these outbreaks
have not had a significant impact on our operations. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will continue toimpact our business, operations, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations in 2023 and beyond remains
uncertain and unpredictable. For a discussion of certain risks related to the COVID-19 pandemic, refer to the risk factor
titled “We may be negatively impacted by adverse public health developments, including epidemics and pandemics, suchas the COVID-19 pandemic” in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors herein. For a discussion of the financial impact of the
COVID-19 pandemic on our business, operations, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations, refer to Part II,
Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Our Strategy
The Company’s overall strategy is to provide our customers with comprehensive design capabilities, a broad
selection of products and a high level of quality and service on a worldwide basis, while maintaining continuing
programs of productivity improvement and cost control. Specifically, our business strategy is as follows:• Pursue broad market diversification - The Company constantly strives to increase the diversity of its markets,
customers, applications and products. Due to the tremendous variety of opportunities in the electronics industry,
management believes that it is important to participate wherever significant growth opportunities are available.
This diversification positions us to proliferate our technologies across the broadest array of opportunities andreduces our exposure to any one particular market, thereby reducing the variability of our financial performance.
An overview of the Company’s market and product participation is described under “Markets”.
• Develop high-technology performance-enhancing solutions - The Company seeks to expand the scope andnumber of its preferred supplier relationships with customers across its diverse end markets. The Company works
closely with its customers at the design stage to create and manufacture innovative solutions. These products
generally have higher value-added content than other interconnect, antenna and sensor products, and have beendeveloped across the Company’s end markets. The Company is focused on technology leadership in theinterconnect areas of radio frequency, power, harsh environment, high-speed and fiber optics, as well as antennas
and sensors, as it views these technology areas to be of particular importance to our global customer base.
• Expand global presence - The Company is strategically expanding and shifting its global manufacturing,
engineering, sales and service operations to better serve its existing customer base, penetrate developing markets
and establish new customer relationships. As the Company’s global customers have grown their international
operations to access developing world markets and lower manufacturing costs, the Company is continuing to
expand and shift its international footprint in order to provide real-time capabilities to these customers. The
majority of the Company’s international operations have broad capabilities, including new product development.

4

The Company is also able to take advantage of the lower manufacturing costs in some regions, and has
established low-cost manufacturing and assembly facilities around the world.
• Control costs - The Company recognizes the importance in today’s global marketplace of maintaining acompetitive cost structure. Innovation, product quality and performance, and comprehensive customer service are
not mutually exclusive with controlling costs. Controlling costs is part of a mindset. It is having the discipline toinvest in programs that have a good return, maintaining a cost structure as flexible as possible to respond tochanges in the marketplace, working with suppliers and vendors in a fair but prudent way to ensure a reasonable
cost for materials and services and creating a mindset where managers manage the Company’s assets as if they
were their own. This mindset was particularly important in 2021 and 2022, as supply chain challenges andinflationary pressures accelerated.
• Pursue strategic acquisitions and investments - The Company believes that the industry in which it operates ishighly fragmented and continues to provide significant opportunities for strategic acquisitions. As a result, we
continue to pursue acquisitions of high-potential companies with strong management teams that complement ourexisting business while further expanding our product lines, technological capabilities and geographic presence.
We seek to enhance the performance of acquired companies by leveraging Amphenol’s position with customers
across our diverse end markets, our leading technologies and our access to low-cost manufacturing around theworld. In 2022, the Company invested approximately $288 million to fund two acquisitions, while in 2021, theCompany invested approximately $1.5 billion (net of the proceeds received from the divestiture of MTS Systems

Customers and Geographies
The Company manufactures and sells a broad portfolio of products on a global basis to customers in a wide variety
of industries. Our customers include many of the leaders in their respective industries, and our relationships with themtypically date back many years. We believe that our diversified customer base provides us with the opportunity toleverage our skills and experience across markets and reduces our exposure to particular end markets. Additionally, we
believe that the diversity of our customer base is an important asset of the Company.
For many years, customers have generally been consolidating their lists of qualified suppliers to companies thathave the ability to meet certain technical, quality, delivery and other standards while maintaining geographic flexibility
and competitive prices. The Company has positioned its global resources to compete effectively in this environment.
As an industry leader, the Company has established close working relationships with many of its customers on a global
basis. These relationships allow the Company to better anticipate and respond to these customer needs when designing
new products and new technical solutions. By working with customers to develop new products and technologies, theCompany is able to identify and act on trends and leverage knowledge about next-generation technology across our7

portfolio of products. In addition, the Company has concentrated its efforts on service, procurement and manufacturing
improvements designed to increase product quality and performance and lower product lead-time and cost. For a
discussion of certain risks related to the Company’s sales, refer to the subsection titled “Risks Related to our End
Markets” included in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors herein.
The Company’s products are sold to thousands of original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) in numerous
countries throughout the world. The Company’s products are also sold to electronic manufacturing services (“EMS”)
companies, to original design manufacturers (“ODMs”) and to service providers, including telecommunications network
service providers and web service providers. No single customer accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s net sales
during either of the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.
The Company sells its products through its own global sales force, independent representatives and a global networkof electronics distributors. The Company’s sales to distributors represented approximately 18% and 17% of theCompany’s net sales in 2022 and 2021, respectively. In addition to product design teams and collaborative initiatives
with customers, the Company uses key account managers to manage certain customer relationships on a global basis sothat it can bring to bear its total resources to meet the worldwide needs of its multinational customers.
Manufacturing
The Company is a global manufacturer employing advanced manufacturing processes including molding, stamping,
plating, turning, computer numerical control (“CNC”) machining, 3D printing, extruding, die casting, certain othermanufacturing, automation and assembly operations and proprietary process technology for connectors, specialty andcoaxial cable production, antenna and sensor fabrication. Outsourcing of certain manufacturing processes is used whencost-effective. Substantially all of the Company’s manufacturing facilities operate under certification to management
system standards of globally recognized, industry certification organizations. Our facilities are primarily certified toquality management systems, primarily ISO9001, but also may include ISO13485, AS9100, and IATF16949. In
addition, approximately half of our facilities are also certified to environmental or occupational health and safety
management systems, including ISO14001 and ISO45001.
The Company’s manufacturing facilities are generally vertically integrated operations from the initial design stage
through final design and manufacturing. The Company designs, manufactures and assembles its products at facilities inapproximately 40 countries around the world. Our global coverage positions us near many of our customers’ locations
and allows us to assist them in consolidating their supply base and lowering their production and logistics costs. In
addition, the Company generally relies on local management in every region, which we believe creates a strong degreeof organizational stability and operational agility, as well as a deeper understanding of local markets. We believe ourbroad and balanced geographic distribution lowers our exposure to particular geographies. This has been evident
throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, as we were generally able to support our customers even if pandemic-related
restrictions and other challenges were present in a particular geography. The Company believes that its global presence
is an important competitive advantage, as it allows the Company to provide quality products on a timely and worldwide
basis to its multinational customers, while at the same time offering a level of resiliency and diversification against local
risks and challenges that may emerge in any single geography.
The Company employs a global manufacturing strategy to provide proximity and reliable service to customers,
while also lowering production and logistics costs. Our strategy is to maintain strong cost and quality controls in our
manufacturing and assembly operations. The Company evaluates and adjusts its expense levels and workforce to reflectcurrent business conditions and attempts to maximize operating profitability as well as the return on capital investments.
This strategy has been, and continues to be, critical to the Company’s ability to mitigate supply chain constraints and ahigher inflationary environment, such as those experienced in 2021 and 2022. The Company sources its products on aworldwide basis. To better serve certain high-volume customers, the Company has established certain facilities nearthese major customers. The Company seeks to position its manufacturing and assembly facilities in order to serve local
markets while coordinating, as appropriate, product design and manufacturing responsibility with the Company’s otheroperations around the world. For a discussion of certain risks related to the Company’s global operations, refer to thesubsection titled “Risks Related to our Global Operations” included in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors herein.
Research and Development
The Company’s product development strategy is to rely on product design teams at each of our operating units
around the world working collaboratively with customers, which often results in the Company obtaining approved
vendor status for its customers’ new products and programs. The Company generally focuses its research and8development efforts primarily on those product areas that it believes have the potential for broad market applications andsignificant sales within a one- to three-year period. The Company seeks to have its products become widely acceptedwithin the industry for similar applications and products manufactured by other potential customers, which the Company
believes will provide additional sources of future revenue. At the end of 2022, our research, development andengineering efforts, which relate to the creation of new and improved products and processes, were supported byapproximately 3,700 of our employees and were performed primarily by individual operating units focused on specificmarkets and product technologies.
Intellectual Property
We own a significant portfolio of patents that principally relate to mechanical, electrical, radio frequency, opticaland electronic features of connector, antenna and sensor products. We also own a portfolio of trademarks and are alicensee of various patents and trademarks. Patents for individual products extend for varying periods according to thedate of patent filing or grant and the legal term of patents in the various countries where patent protection is obtained.
Trademark rights may potentially extend for longer periods of time and are dependent upon the laws of various
jurisdictions and the use of the trademarks.
We also rely upon trade secrets, manufacturing know-how, continuing technological innovations and licensing
opportunities to maintain and improve our competitive position. We review third-party proprietary rights, including
patents and patent applications, as available, in an effort to develop an effective intellectual property strategy, avoid
infringement of third-party proprietary rights, identify licensing opportunities and monitor the intellectual property
claims of others.
From time to time, the Company is involved in disputes with third parties regarding the Company’s or such third
party’s intellectual property assets, particularly patents. While we consider our patents and trademarks to be valuableassets, we do not believe that our competitive position or our operations are dependent upon or would be materially
impacted by the loss of any single patent or group of related patents, or by a third party’s successful enforcement of its
patents against us or any of our products. For a discussion of certain risks related to the Company’s intellectual
property, refer to the risk factor titled “We may experience difficulties in enforcing our intellectual property rights, which
could result in loss of market share, and we may be subject to claims of infringement of the intellectual property rights ofothers” in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors herein.
Raw Materials
The Company purchases a wide variety of raw materials for the manufacture of its products, including (i) precious
metals such as gold, silver and palladium, (ii) aluminum, steel, copper, titanium and metal alloy products and (iii) plastic
materials. The Company also purchases a wide variety of mechanical and electronic components for the manufacturingof its products. Such raw materials and components are generally available throughout the world and are purchased
locally from a variety of suppliers. The Company is generally not dependent upon any one source for raw materials orcomponents or, if one source is used, the Company generally attempts to protect itself through long-term supply
agreements. From time to time, the Company may encounter difficulties in obtaining certain raw materials orcomponents necessary for production due to supply chain constraints and logistical challenges, which may include
regulatory restrictions. These difficulties may also negatively impact the pricing of materials and components sourced orused by the Company. While the Company does not currently anticipate significant, broad-based difficulties in
obtaining raw materials or components necessary for production, in 2021 and 2022, there were supply chain andlogistical challenges that impacted the global economy, including our Company, and caused and continue to cause
supply constraints and commodity price increases on certain raw materials and components used by the Company inproduction, as well as decreased availability of, and increased prices for, freight and logistics, including air, sea andground freight. As of December 31, 2022, while some of the supply chain and logistical challenges have eased, inflation
continues to impact the cost of certain raw materials and components used by the Company. Given this environment, theCompany may experience supply shortages for discrete raw materials or components in the future, which could befurther exacerbated by increased commodity prices and additional inflation. For a discussion of certain risks related tothe availability of and dependence on raw materials and components, refer to the risk factor titled “The Company andcertain of its suppliers and customers have experienced difficulties obtaining certain raw materials and components, andthe cost of most of the Company’s raw materials and components is increasing” in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors herein.
Information regarding our obligations related to commitments to purchase certain goods and services is disclosed in
Note 14 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

9Competition
The Company encounters competition in substantially all areas of its business. The Company competes primarily on

competitors include Aptiv, Belden, Carlisle, Commscope, Eaton, Foxconn, Glenair, HARTING, Hirose,
HUBER+SUHNER, ICT Luxshare, JAE, Jonhon, JST, Molex, Phoenix Contact, Radiall, Rosenberger, Sensata, TE
Connectivity, Yazaki and 3M, among others. In addition, the Company competes with a large number of smaller
companies who compete in specific geographies, markets or products. For a discussion of certain risks related tocompetition, refer to the risk factor titled “The Company encounters competition in substantially all areas of ourbusiness” in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors herein.
Backlog and Seasonality
The Company estimates that its backlog of unfilled firm orders as of December 31, 2022 was approximately $4.1
billion compared with backlog of approximately $3.8 billion as of December 31, 2021. Orders typically fluctuate fromquarter to quarter based on customer demand and general business conditions. Unfilled orders may generally becancelled prior to shipment of goods. It is expected that nearly all of the Company’s backlog will be filled within thenext 12 months. Significant elements of the Company’s business, such as sales to the communications-related markets(including wireless communications, information technology and data communications and broadband communications)and sales to distributors, generally have short lead times. Therefore, backlog may not be indicative of future demand.
Generally, the Company does not experience significant seasonality in its business, although historically, the strongest
quarters have typically been the last two quarters of our fiscal year.
Cybersecurity
In an effort to reduce the likelihood and severity of cyber incidents, the Company has a cybersecurity program
designed to protect and preserve the confidentiality, integrity and availability of our data and systems. We perform risk
assessments and penetration tests relating to cybersecurity and technology risks. We also conduct workforce training to
instruct employees how to better identify cybersecurity concerns and to avoid actions that might inadvertently allow
outsiders to access our systems. We have installed end point protection software on our Company-managed systems andworkstations in an effort to detect and prevent malicious code from impacting our systems. The Company’s annualinternal audits also include procedures performed on the control environment related to our information security
systems. Our Board of Directors (the “Board”) maintains oversight responsibility relating to our information security andcybersecurity program, with assistance from the Audit Committee of the Board. At least annually, our senior leadershipteam (including the leaders of our Information Technology and Internal Audit teams) provides an update of our
information security and cybersecurity program to the full Board. In addition, the Company maintains standard
cybersecurity insurance. During the last three years, we have not experienced a material security breach and, as a result,
we have not incurred any material expenses from such a breach. Furthermore, during such time, we have not been
penalized or paid any amount under any information security breach settlement. For a discussion of certain risks related
to cybersecurity, refer to the risk factor titled “Cybersecurity incidents affecting our information technology systems
could disrupt business operations or cause the release of highly sensitive confidential information, resulting in adverse
impacts to our reputation and operating results and potentially leading to litigation and/or governmental investigations
and fines” in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors herein.
Environmental Matters
Certain operations of the Company are subject to environmental laws and regulations that govern the discharge ofpollutants into the air and water, as well as the handling and disposal of solid and hazardous wastes. The Company
believes that its operations are currently in substantial compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations
and that the costs of continuing compliance will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition,
results of operations or cash flows. For more information on certain environmental matters, refer to Note 14 of theNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

U.S. and other governments, including laws and regulations governing reporting obligations, interactions withgovernment officials, performance of government contracts, the use and treatment of government furnished property andthe nature of materials used in our products. In addition, the Company and its products are subject to import and export
regulations present in each of the various jurisdictions in which we operate around the world. Certain of our products,
including purchased components of such products, are subject to U.S. and non-U.S. export control laws and regulations,and may be exported only with the required export license or through an export license exception. The issuances of suchlicenses, in particular within the military market, are subject to complex laws and regulations that could change

For a discussion of certain risks related to government regulation, including export and import controls andsanctions, refer to the risk factors titled “The Company must comply with complex U.S. governmental export and importcontrols as well as economic sanctions and trade embargoes,” “Our business and financial results may be adversely
affected by government contracting risks,” and “Our international operations require us to comply with anti-corruption
laws and regulations of the U.S. government and various foreign jurisdictions, and our business reputation and financial
results may be impaired by improper conduct by any of our employees, customers, suppliers, distributors or any otherbusiness partners,” in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors herein.
Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance
At Amphenol, we believe that making sustainable business choices, building strong relationships with our
stakeholders and engaging in good corporate governance create long-term value for our Company. Whether throughminimizing our and our partners’ environmental footprint, following humane labor practices, supporting thedevelopment and diversity of our global team, ensuring the strength and integrity of our supply chain or giving back to

Human Capital Management and Our Culture
The Company’s success is closely tied to the capability, adaptability and accountability of our diverse, globalorganization. One of the key components of our business strategy is the fostering of a collaborative and entrepreneurial
management culture. Each of our general managers operates in a flat organizational structure and is incented to grow anddevelop their business, with the support of the resources of the larger organization. We believe this structure, withapproximately 130 general managers running unique, independent businesses, creates an environment and culture where
each of our general managers has a more direct link to the success of their individual businesses and a more personalconnection to the employees they oversee and the communities in which they operate.
As of December 31, 2022, the Company had approximately 91,000 employees worldwide, of which approximately
11,000 were located in the United States. Less than 10% of Amphenol’s U.S. workforce is represented by anindependent trade union or covered by collective bargaining. The Company believes that it has a good relationship withboth its unionized and non-unionized employees.
Governance and Culture – Our Board is actively involved in overseeing the Company’s employee-related strategies
and practices as well as the Company’s culture and ESG initiatives. This oversight is conducted both directly andthrough certain of the Board’s committees. At each of its regularly scheduled quarterly meetings, the Board reviews
changes in key personnel and, at least once a year, meets with management to discuss various human resources related
topics, including talent development, succession planning, diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives, compensation andculture. We believe the Company’s culture has been a critical component of the Company’s success and reinforcing that
culture is a key responsibility of our executive management.
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion – Amphenol is committed to workplace diversity and fostering a culture of equity,
inclusion and belonging across our organization. Our business spans the globe, and the employees in our facilities
reflect the diversity of the communities in which we operate. At Amphenol, we promote and maintain a culture ofrespect and appreciation of differences in our employees. The Company generally relies on local management in every
business unit to foster a culture of diversity, equity and inclusion, which we believe creates a strong degree oforganizational stability and a deep commitment to our people and the local community. A key hallmark of our structureis our entrepreneurial culture that creates clear accountability for each of our general managers, who are our key businessleaders. Our core management team is comprised of these general managers and their controllers, as well as our
executive management team. Women represented 27% of this core management team at the end of 2022. Of our total
employees worldwide, approximately half are women.
Health, Safety and Well-being – We believe that the protection of our employees is a moral obligation. In addition,
the safety and well-being of our employees is critical to the successful operation of our business. Our health and safety
activities are overseen by our corporate environmental, health, safety and sustainability leadership team and are managed
by our local teams, who coordinate on-site safety programs, resources, reporting and training in our facilities. We believethat this model of coaching and tracking at the corporate level, but administering at the facility level, has allowed us toprovide training and supervision that better fits the local needs of each of our workforces.
Compensation and Benefits – The Company is focused on providing our employees around the world equitable andcompetitive compensation and benefits. In the U.S., in addition to competitive compensation, the Company maintains
various employee benefits such as health and related insurance, retirement savings programs and health savings andflexible spending accounts. Outside the U.S., we maintain compensation and other benefits competitive with local
market conditions.
Community and Social Impact – Amphenol recognizes that we have a responsibility to be a positive influence in thecommunities in which we operate around the world. Most of our community outreach is organized by our local
management teams, which helps ensure that our efforts are working in support of the local communities in which our
employees live and work. Our local teams are actively supporting their communities in a variety of ways including:school supply drives, local blood drives, mentoring of at-risk students, community clean-up events, local tree planting,holiday-giving events and food delivery services. In 2022, a number of our operations in Europe supported refugees
who were fleeing Ukraine following the Russian invasion.

workforce outside the United States. The Company’s customers are located throughout the world, and the Company has
many manufacturing, administrative and sales facilities outside the United States.
During the last few years there have also been significant changes to U.S. trade policies, sanctions, legislation,
treaties and tariffs, including, but not limited to, trade policies and tariffs affecting China. These changes have, incertain cases, increased our costs of doing business. The imposition of additional tariffs or other trade barriers could
increase our costs in certain markets, and may cause our customers to find alternative sourcing or could make it moredifficult for us to sell our products in some markets. Other countries where we operate or sell our products havechanged, and may continue to change, their own policies on trade as well as business and foreign investment in theirrespective countries. Additionally, it is possible that U.S. policy changes and uncertainty about such changes could
increase market volatility and currency exchange rate fluctuations. As a result of these dynamics, we cannot predict the
impact to our business of any future changes to the U.S.’s or other countries’ trading relationships or the impact of newlaws or regulations adopted by the U.S. or other countries.

13

In addition to the risks noted above, a number of other legal, economic and geopolitical factors both in the UnitedStates and abroad could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operations, financial condition,liquidity and/or results of operations, such as:• a global or regional economic slowdown or recession in any of the Company’s end markets (or a prolonging or
intensification of such a slowdown or recession), which could negatively affect the financial condition of ourcustomers and result in reduced demand;• postponement of customer spending, in response to tighter credit, inflationary pressures, financial market
volatility and other global economic factors;• effects of significant changes in economic, monetary and/or fiscal policies in the United States and/or abroad,including interest rate changes by the U.S. Federal Reserve or other international central banking systems,
foreign currency fluctuations, significant income tax changes and inflationary pressures;• intergovernmental conflicts or actions, including, but not limited to, armed conflict, trade wars, cyberattacks andacts of terrorism or war, including the continuing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine and escalating
tensions in bordering countries within the Eurozone;• employment regulations and local labor conditions, including increases in employment costs, particularly in lowcost regions in which the Company currently operates;• industrial policies in various countries that favor domestic industries over multinationals or that restrict foreigncompanies altogether;• difficulties protecting intellectual property;• longer payment cycles;• changes in exchange control regulations, including any government actions that prohibit, limit or increase thecost of paying a dividend or otherwise moving cash between the Company’s subsidiaries located in different
countries;• credit risks and other challenges in collecting accounts receivable; and• changes in assumptions, such as discount rates, along with lower than expected investment returns andperformance related to the Company’s benefit plans.
We may be negatively impacted by adverse public health developments, including epidemics and pandemics, such as
the COVID-19 pandemic.
Any outbreaks of contagious diseases and other adverse public health developments in countries where we operate
could have a material and adverse effect on our business, operations, financial condition, liquidity and results ofoperations. Since early 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted our offices and manufacturing facilities around theworld, as well as the facilities of our suppliers, customers and our customers’ contract manufacturers. These disruptions
have included, and may continue to include, government regulations that inhibit our ability to operate certain of ourfacilities in the ordinary course, travel restrictions, supplier constraints, supply chain interruptions, logistics challenges
and limitations, labor disruptions and reduced demand from certain customers. During much of 2022, COVID-19
outbreaks in China resulted in local or regional government-imposed lockdowns and restrictions, which impacted theability of several of our operations and manufacturing facilities to operate in the ordinary course. As of December 31,
2022, there continue to be isolated COVID-19 outbreaks in certain regions of the world, particularly in China. There canbe no assurance that the COVID-19 pandemic will not have a material and adverse effect on our business, operations,financial condition, liquidity and results of operations in the future.
The Company and certain of its suppliers and customers have experienced difficulties obtaining certain raw materials
and components, and the cost of most of the Company’s raw materials and components is increasing.
The Company uses basic materials like aluminum, steel, copper, titanium, metal alloys, gold, silver, palladium andplastic resins in its manufacturing processes as well as a variety of components and relies on third-party suppliers tosecure these materials and components. While the Company does not currently anticipate significant, broad-based
difficulties in obtaining raw materials or components necessary for production, in 2021 and 2022, there were supply
chain and logistical challenges that impacted the global economy, including our Company, and caused and continue tocause supply constraints and commodity price increases on certain raw materials and components used by the Company.
In addition, recent inflationary pressures have been exacerbated by decreased availability of, and increased prices for,freight and logistics, including air, sea and ground freight. The Company may not be able to pass along increased raw
material or component prices to its customers, and may not be able to procure and obtain sufficient quantities of raw
materials and components at acceptable prices from our suppliers. Accordingly, any future delays, disruptions, andsupply and pricing risks could affect our ability to meet customer demand for our products or our profitability fromselling those products, which could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

14

In limited instances, we depend on a single source of supply or participate in commodity markets that may be served
by a limited number of suppliers. Delays in obtaining supplies may result from a number of factors affecting our
suppliers, and any delay could impair our ability to deliver products to our customers. The cost and availability of raw
materials may fluctuate significantly due to external factors including, but not limited to, product scarcity, disruptions
caused by climate change and adverse weather conditions, commodity market fluctuations, currency fluctuations,
governmental policies and regulations such as trade tariffs and import restrictions, as well as pandemics and epidemics(such as, but not limited to, the COVID-19 pandemic), which may, in turn, negatively impact our results of operations
and financial condition.
Cybersecurity incidents affecting our information technology systems could disrupt business operations or cause therelease of highly sensitive confidential information, resulting in adverse impacts to our reputation and operating
results and potentially leading to litigation and/or governmental investigations and fines.
Cybersecurity threats and techniques used to disrupt operations and gain unauthorized access to our information
technology systems, including, but not limited to, malware, phishing, credential harvesting, ransomware and otherincreasingly sophisticated attacks, continue to expand and evolve globally, making it difficult to detect and prevent suchthreats from impacting the Company. Globally, there continues to be an increased volume of cyber threats, ransomware
attempts and social engineering attacks such as phishing and impersonation, and attackers increasingly use tools andtechniques that are designed to circumvent controls, to avoid detection, and to remove or obfuscate forensic evidence. In
addition, the COVID-19 pandemic has increased cybersecurity risk as a result of global remote working dynamics that
may continue into the future and present additional risk that threat actors will engage in social engineering (for example,
phishing) and exploit vulnerabilities in corporate and non-corporate networks. Ransomware attacks have become easier
to execute, and with the rise of ransomware as a service, it has become an increasingly popular business model to leaseor sell ransomware variants to anyone willing to pay the fee.
The Company has been and expects to continue to be a target of various cybersecurity attacks, including, but notlimited to, ransomware attacks. While the impact of such attacks has not been material, future cybersecurity incidents
could lead to unauthorized access to and potentially impair the Company’s information technology systems, products,
customers, suppliers and third-party service providers. Cybersecurity incidents could potentially result in the disruptionof our business operations and/or misappropriation, destruction or corruption of critical data and confidential or
proprietary information. Cybersecurity events could also result in the loss of or inability to access confidential
information and critical business, financial or other data, and/or cause the release of highly sensitive confidential
information. Cybersecurity incidents could also result from unauthorized parties gaining access to our systems orinformation through fraudulent or other means of deceiving our employees, suppliers or third-party service providers.
Despite providing training to employees as well as implementing preventative security measures to prevent, detect,address and mitigate these threats, our or key third-party information technology systems and infrastructure are stillsusceptible to disruptions from cybersecurity incidents, ransomware attacks, security breaches, computer viruses,
security vulnerabilities or “bugs” in software or hardware, outages, systems failures, natural disasters, adverse publichealth developments, or other catastrophic events, any of which could include reputational damage, loss of ourintellectual property, release of highly sensitive confidential information, the inability to access critical data and otheroperational disruption, litigation with third parties and/or governmental investigations and fines, among other things,
which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We and our business partners maintain significant amounts of data electronically in locations around theworld. This data relates to all aspects of our business, including financial information and current and future products
under development, and also contains certain customer, supplier, partner and employee data, such as sensitive personal
data. We maintain systems and processes designed to protect this data, but notwithstanding such protective measures,
there is a risk of intrusion, cyberattacks or tampering that could compromise the integrity and privacy of this data or
make the data inaccessible to us. In addition, in certain cases, in order to conduct business, we outsource to third-party
business partners. We generally obtain assurances from those parties that they have systems and processes in place toprotect our data, and where applicable, that they will take steps to protect our data; nonetheless, those partners may also
be subject to data intrusion or a cyberattack. Any compromise of the data could substantially disrupt our operations,
impact future business opportunities, harm our customers, employees and other business partners, damage our
reputation, violate applicable laws, regulations, policies and contractual obligations and subject us to potentiallysignificant costs and liabilities, including litigation or other enforcement actions.

15

The regulatory environment surrounding information security and privacy is increasingly demanding, with frequentimposition of new and changing requirements, privacy laws and regulations around the world, for example, in theEuropean Union, People’s Republic of China, and the state of California, which impose significant obligations forcompanies on how they collect, store, protect, process and transfer personal data and can impose significant fines for
non-compliance. The potential for fines and other related costs in the event of a breach of or non-compliance with any
existing and forthcoming information security or privacy laws and requirements may have an adverse effect on our
financial results.
The Company may be negatively impacted by extreme weather conditions and natural catastrophic events, including
those caused or intensified by climate change and global warming.
From time to time, extreme weather conditions and natural disasters have negatively impacted, and may continue tonegatively impact, portions of our operations, as well as the operations of our suppliers, vendors, customers anddistributors. Such unpredictable weather conditions and natural disasters including, but not limited to, earthquakes, fires,floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, and stronger and longer-lasting weather patterns, and their consequences and effects have,in the past, temporarily disrupted our business operations both in the United States and abroad. These events could
cause some of the Company’s operations to suffer from supply chain disruptions and potential delays in fulfilling
customer orders or order cancellations altogether, lost business and sales, changing costs or availability of insurance,
and/or property damage or harm to our people, each and all of which could have an adverse effect on our business,
operations, financial condition and results of operations.
Increasing scrutiny and expectations regarding ESG matters could result in additional costs or risks or otherwise
adversely impact our business.
Companies across industries are facing increasing scrutiny from a variety of stakeholders related to their ESG andsustainability practices. Expectations regarding voluntary and potential mandatory ESG initiatives and disclosures may
result in increased costs, changes in demand for certain products, enhanced compliance or disclosure obligations, orother adverse impacts to our business, financial condition or results of operations. In addition, an inability to receive or
maintain favorable ESG ratings could negatively impact our reputation or impede our ability to compete as effectively to
attract and retain employees or customers, which may adversely impact our operations. Unfavorable ESG ratings could
also lead to increased negative investor sentiment towards us or our industry, which could negatively impact the shareprice of our Common Stock as well as our access to and cost of capital.
Our international operations require us to comply with anti-corruption laws and regulations of the U.S. government
and various foreign jurisdictions, and our business reputation and financial results may be impaired by improper
conduct by any of our employees, customers, suppliers, distributors or any other business partners.
Doing business on a worldwide basis requires us and our subsidiaries to comply with the laws and regulations of the
U.S. government and various foreign jurisdictions, and our failure to comply with these rules and regulations may
expose us to significant liabilities. These laws and regulations may apply to companies, individual directors, officers,
employees, subcontractors and agents, and may restrict our operations, trade practices, investment decisions andpartnering activities. In particular, our international operations are subject to U.S. and foreign anti-corruption laws andregulations, such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended (“FCPA”). As part of our business, we deal
with state-owned business enterprises, the employees and representatives of which may be considered foreign officials
for purposes of the FCPA. In addition, some of the foreign locations in which we operate lack a developed legal systemand have elevated levels of corruption. As a result of the above activities, we are exposed to the risk of violating U.S.
and foreign anti-corruption laws.
There can be no assurance that our policies and procedures designed for complying with applicable U.S. andinternational laws and regulations will be effective in preventing our directors, officers, employees, subcontractors andagents from taking actions that violate these legal requirements. Violations of these legal requirements could subject us
to criminal fines and imprisonment, civil penalties, disgorgement of profits, injunctions, debarment from government
contracts and other remedial measures. In addition, any actual or alleged violations could disrupt our operations, cause
reputational harm, involve significant management distraction and result in a material adverse effect on our competitive
position, results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

16

The Company’s results can be positively or negatively affected by changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
The Company conducts business in many foreign currencies through its worldwide operations, and as a result issubject to foreign exchange exposure due to changes in exchange rates of the various currencies, including possible
foreign currency restrictions and/or devaluations. Changes in exchange rates can positively or negatively affect theCompany’s sales, operating margins and equity. There can be no assurance that any or all actions taken by the Company
to mitigate currency risk, such as locating factories in the same country or region in which products are sold, hedging
contracts, cost reduction and pricing actions or working capital management, will be fully effective in successfully
managing currency risk. A significant and sudden decline in the value of any of the foreign currencies of the Company’s
worldwide operations could have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations
and cash flows.
The Company is dependent on attracting, recruiting, hiring and retaining skilled employees, including our various
management teams.
Our performance is dependent on our ability to attract, recruit, hire and retain skilled personnel, including our
executive and core management teams. Given the current inflationary wage environment and strong demand for skilledlabor in many of the countries and regions in which we operate, the ability to identify and attract new talent, as well as
retain existing talent, may prove to be difficult. It is possible that the current labor market could have an adverse effecton our ability to attract, recruit, hire and retain skilled employees, which in turn, could have an adverse effect on the
Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, our business could also be adversely
impacted by the ongoing increases in labor costs, including wages and benefits.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR END MARKETSThe Company encounters competition in substantially all areas of our business.
The Company competes primarily on the basis of technology innovation, product quality and performance, price,customer service and delivery time. Competitors include large, diversified companies, some of which have greater assets
and financial resources than the Company, as well as medium- to small-sized companies. Rapid technological changes
could also lead to the entry of new competitors of various sizes against whom we may not be able to successfullycompete. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to compete successfully against existing or newcompetition, and the inability to do so may result in price reductions, reduced margins, or loss of market share, any ofwhich could have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Company is dependent on end market dynamics to sell its products, particularly in the communications,
automotive and military end markets.
The Company is dependent on end market dynamics to sell its products, and our operating results could be
adversely affected by cyclical and reduced demand in any of these markets. Approximately 42% of the Company’s 2022
net sales came from sales to the communications industry. Demand for products in these markets is generally subject torapid technological change and/or capital spending by operators for constructing, rebuilding or upgrading their systems,
all of which could be affected by a variety of factors, including general economic conditions, consolidation within theindustry, the financial condition of operators and their access to financing, competition, technological developments,
new legislation and regulation. Approximately 21% of the Company’s net sales came from the automotive industry. The
automotive industry has historically experienced significant downturns during periods of deteriorating global or regional
economic or credit conditions. The communications and automotive end markets are also dominated by large customers
that regularly exert price pressures on their suppliers, including the Company. Approximately 9% of the Company’s net
sales came from sales to the military end market. Accordingly, the Company’s sales are affected by changes in the
defense budgets of the U.S. and foreign governments, which are subject to political and budgetary fluctuations andconstraints. Periodic downturns in any of our customers’ end markets can significantly reduce demand for certain of our
products, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results ofoperations.

17

RISKS RELATED TO ACQUISITIONSThe Company has at times experienced difficulties and unanticipated expenses in connection with purchasing andintegrating newly acquired businesses.
The Company has completed a number of acquisitions in recent years, including two in 2022. The Company
anticipates that it will continue to pursue acquisition opportunities as part of its growth strategy. From time to time, theCompany experiences difficulty and unanticipated expenses associated with purchasing and integrating acquisitions, andacquisitions do not always perform and deliver the financial benefits expected. The Company has also experienced
challenges at times following the acquisition of a new company or business, including, but not limited to, managing theoperations, manufacturing facilities and technology; maintaining and increasing the customer base; or retaining key
employees, suppliers and distributors. In certain limited cases, the Company has pursued indemnification claims against
seller(s) of an acquired business for pre-acquisition liabilities, breaches of representations, warranties or covenants or forother reasons provided for in the relevant acquisition agreement. To the extent we pursue indemnification claims against
the seller(s) of any acquired business, such seller(s) may successfully contest such claims and/or may not have thefinancial capacity to compensate us for such claims or such claims may otherwise be difficult or impractical to enforce.
We cannot predict or guarantee whether and to what extent anticipated cost savings, benefits, margin improvements andgrowth prospects will be achieved from recent or future acquisitions.
The Company may in the future incur goodwill and other intangible asset impairment charges.
On December 31, 2022, the total assets of the Company were $15.3 billion, which included $6.4 billion of goodwill(the excess of fair value of consideration paid over the fair value of net identifiable assets of businesses acquired) and$734.1 million of other intangible assets, net. The Company performs annual evaluations (or more frequently, if
necessary) for the potential impairment of the carrying value of goodwill and other intangible assets. Such evaluations
to date have not resulted in the need to recognize an impairment. However, if the financial performance of theCompany’s businesses were to decline significantly, the Company could incur a material non-cash charge to its income
statement for the impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets. Furthermore, we cannot provide assurance that
impairment charges in the future will not be required if the expected cash flow estimates as projected by management do
not occur, especially if an economic recession occurs and continues for a lengthy period or becomes severe, or if
acquisitions and investments made by the Company fail to achieve expected returns.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company’s credit agreements and senior notes contain certain requirements, which if breached, could have amaterial adverse effect on the Company.
The second amended and restated credit agreement that governs our $2.5 billion unsecured credit facility (the“Revolving Credit Facility”), which also backstops the Company’s U.S. commercial paper program (“U.S. Commercial
Paper Program”) and Euro commercial paper program (“Euro Commercial Paper Program”), contains financial and othercovenants, such as a limit on the ratio of debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, a limit onpriority indebtedness and limits on incurrence of liens. The Company also has similar financial and other covenantsassociated with its two-year, $750.0 million unsecured delayed draw term loan credit agreement (the “2022 Term Loan”)
entered into in April 2022. In addition, the ability to meet the financial covenants can be affected by events beyond theCompany’s control, and the Company cannot provide assurance that it will meet those tests. A breach of any of thesecovenants could result in a default under the Revolving Credit Facility and the 2022 Term Loan. Upon the occurrence ofan event of default under the Revolving Credit Facility or the 2022 Term Loan, the lenders could terminate allcommitments to extend further credit and elect to declare amounts outstanding thereunder to be immediately due andpayable which could result in the acceleration of certain of the Company’s other indebtedness and the Company nothaving sufficient assets to repay the Revolving Credit Facility, the 2022 Term Loan and such other indebtedness. As of
December 31, 2022, the Company had approximately $632.8 million of outstanding borrowings under the U.S.
Commercial Paper Program, and no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, 2022 Term Loan andEuro Commercial Paper Program.
In addition to these credit agreements, the Company’s various senior notes also impose certain obligations on the
Company and prohibit various actions by the Company unless it satisfies certain financial requirements. While theCompany is compliant with all such requirements as of December 31, 2022, there can be no assurance that the Company
will remain in compliance with such requirements.

18

The Company relies on the global capital markets, and an inability to access those markets on favorable terms could
adversely affect the Company’s results.
The Company has used the global capital markets to invest in its business and make strategic acquisitions. If
general economic and capital market conditions deteriorate significantly, it could impact the Company’s ability to accessthe capital markets. The capital and credit markets have experienced significant volatility in the past. Market conditions
could make it more difficult to access capital to finance capital investments, acquisitions and other initiatives including
dividends and share repurchases, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial
condition, results of operations or cash flows. In addition, if the credit rating agencies that rate the Company’s debt wereto downgrade the Company’s credit rating, it would likely increase the Company’s cost of capital and make it moredifficult for the Company to obtain new financing and access capital markets, which could also have a material adverse
effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
The Company’s results may be negatively affected by changing interest rates.
The Company is subject to interest rate volatility with regard to existing and future issuances of debt. The Company
monitors its mix of fixed-rate and variable-rate debt, as well as its mix of short-term and long-term debt. As of
December 31, 2022, approximately $640 million, or 14%, of the Company’s outstanding borrowings were subject tofloating interest rates, primarily from borrowings under the U.S. Commercial Paper Program. As a result of recent
increases in the federal funds rate by the U.S. Federal Reserve, the floating interest rates related to our U.S. Commercial
Paper Program increased substantially over the course of 2022, a trend that could continue throughout 2023.
Consequently, the Company currently expects the floating interest rates related to its U.S. Commercial Paper Program(as well as its Revolving Credit Facility and 2022 Term Loan, to the extent either are drawn upon in the future) tocontinue to increase in the first quarter of 2023 and potentially beyond, which is expected to result in increased interest
expense in 2023 as compared to 2022. There can be no assurance that interest rates will not change significantly fromcurrent levels.
RISKS RELATED TO LEGAL AND REGULATORY MATTERS
Our business and financial results may be adversely affected by government contracting risks.
We are subject to various laws and regulations applicable to parties doing business with the U.S. and othergovernments, including laws and regulations governing reporting obligations, interactions with government officials,
performance of government contracts, the use and treatment of government furnished property and the nature ofmaterials used in our products. We may be unilaterally suspended or barred from conducting business with the U.S. andother foreign governments or their suppliers (both directly and indirectly), or become subject to fines or other sanctions
if we are found to have violated such laws or regulations. As a result of the need to comply with these laws andregulations, we are subject to increased risks of governmental investigations, civil fraud actions, criminal prosecutions,whistleblower lawsuits and other enforcement actions. For example, in August 2018, we received a subpoena from the
U.S. Department of Defense, Office of the Inspector General, requesting documents from certain of the Company’s
Military and Aerospace businesses pertaining to certain products that are purchased or used by the U.S. government. In
connection with this investigation, during the third quarter of 2022, in a meeting with representatives of the U.S.
government, it was alleged that the Company likely violated various provisions of federal law, including violations
under the civil False Claims Act, as discussed more fully in Note 14 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
The U.S. laws and regulations to which we are subject include, but are not limited to, Export Administration
Regulations, the Federal Acquisition Regulation, the False Claims Act, International Traffic in Arms Regulations,
regulations from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms and the FCPA. We are subject to a wide range of similarlaws and regulations in other countries throughout the world. Failure, or the perceived failure, to comply with applicablerequirements also could harm our reputation and our ability to compete for future government contracts or sellcommercial equivalent products. Any of these outcomes could have a material adverse effect on our business,
operations, financial condition, liquidity, and results of operations.
In addition, U.S. government contracts are subject to modification, curtailment or termination by the U.S.
government without prior written notice, either for convenience or for default as a result of our failure to perform under
the applicable contract. If our contracts are terminated by the U.S. government as a result of our default, we could be
liable for additional costs the U.S. government incurs in acquiring undelivered goods or services from another source
and any other damages it suffers. Furthermore, the U.S. government periodically audits our governmental contract costs,

19

which could result in fines, penalties or adjustment of costs and prices under the contracts. Any such fines, penalties or
payment adjustments resulting from such audits could adversely affect our reputation, business, operations, financial
condition, liquidity, and results of operations.
The Company must comply with complex U.S. governmental export and import controls as well as economic
sanctions and trade embargoes.
Certain of our products, including purchased components of such products, are subject to U.S. and non-U.S. export
control laws and regulations, and may be exported only with the required export license or through an export license
exception. In addition, we are required to comply with certain U.S. and non-U.S. economic sanctions and tradeembargoes that restrict our ability to transact or deal with certain persons, countries, regions, and governments. Theselaws and regulations are complex, may change frequently and with limited notice, have generally become more stringent
over time and have intensified under recent U.S. administrations, especially in light of recent tensions with China. For
example, in 2019, the U.S. government added certain of the Company’s customers based in China to the “Entity List”
maintained by the U.S. Department of Commerce, which imposes additional restrictions on sales to such customers.
Further, in 2022, the U.S. Commerce Department’s Bureau of Industry Security released new export control regulations
that restrict the provision to China of certain technology, software, manufacturing equipment and commodities that areused to make certain advanced computing integrated circuits (“ICs”) and supercomputers. These changes include new
restrictions on the ability of U.S. companies to provide certain services to any facility in China that manufactures certain
advanced ICs. Although, to date, none of such restrictions have had a material adverse effect on the Company’sbusiness, financial condition and results of operations, the U.S. government has the power to place even greater
restrictions, and such restrictions could further limit or prohibit the Company from selling its products or providing its
services. In addition, we cannot ensure that our policies and procedures designed to maintain compliance withapplicable rules and regulations will be effective in preventing instances of non-compliance. If we were to fail tocomply with applicable export control restrictions (for example, by failing to obtain required export licensing), customs
regulations, economic sanctions and other laws, we could be subject to substantial civil and criminal penalties, including
fines, the incarceration of responsible employees and managers, reputational harm, and the possible loss of export orimport privileges. In addition, if our distributors fail to obtain appropriate import, export or re-export licenses or
permits, we may also be adversely affected through reputational harm and penalties. Obtaining the necessary export
license for a particular sale may be time-consuming and may result in the delay or loss of sales opportunities.
Changes in fiscal and tax policies, audits and examinations by taxing authorities could impact the Company’s results.
The Company is subject to tax in the U.S. and in numerous foreign jurisdictions. The Company is currently undertax examination in several jurisdictions, and, in addition, new examinations could be initiated by additional tax
authorities. As the Company has operations in jurisdictions throughout the world, the risk of tax examinations willcontinue to occur. The Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows may be materially impacted
by the results of these tax examinations.
On August 16, 2022, the President of the United States signed into law the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the“IRA”), a tax and spending package that introduces several tax-related provisions, including a 15% corporate alternative
minimum tax (“CAMT”) on certain large corporations and a 1% excise tax on certain corporate stock repurchases.
Companies will be required to reassess their valuation allowances for certain affected deferred tax assets in the period ofenactment but will not need to remeasure deferred tax balances for the related tax accounting implications of the CAMT.
The impact of these provisions, which became effective for Amphenol beginning on January 1, 2023, is dependent on
several factors, including interpretive regulatory guidance, which has not yet been released.
Any future changes in tax laws, regulations, accounting standards for income taxes and/or other tax guidance,
including related interpretations associated with the IRA or otherwise, could materially impact the Company’s current
and non-current tax liabilities, along with deferred tax assets and liabilities, and consequently, our financial condition,
results of operations or cash flows.
We may experience difficulties in enforcing our intellectual property rights, which could result in loss of market
share, and we may be subject to claims of infringement of the intellectual property rights of others.
We rely on patent and trade secret laws, copyright, trademark, confidentiality procedures, controls and contractual
commitments to protect our intellectual property rights. Despite our efforts, these protections may be limited and, fromtime to time, we encounter difficulties in protecting our intellectual property rights, particularly in certain countries

20

outside the U.S. We cannot provide assurance that the patents that we hold or may obtain will provide meaningfulprotection against our competitors. Changes in laws concerning intellectual property, or the enforcement of such laws,
may affect our ability to prevent or address the misappropriation of, or the unauthorized use of, our intellectual property,
potentially resulting in loss of market share. Litigation may be necessary to enforce our intellectual property rights.
Litigation is inherently uncertain and outcomes are unpredictable. If we cannot protect our intellectual property rights
against unauthorized copying or use, or other misappropriation, we may not remain competitive.
The intellectual property rights of others could inhibit our ability to introduce new products. Other companies holdpatents on technologies used in our industries and are aggressively seeking to expand, enforce and license their patentportfolios. We periodically receive notices from, or have lawsuits filed against us by, third parties claiming
infringement, misappropriation or other misuse of their intellectual property rights and/or breach of our agreements withthem. These third parties may include entities that do not have the capabilities to design, manufacture, or distributeproducts or that acquire intellectual property like patents for the sole purpose of monetizing their acquired intellectual
property through asserting claims of infringement and misuse. In addition, some foreign competitors may takeadvantage of the intellectual property laws in their home countries and the more favorable litigation and regulatoryenvironment to our detriment. Third-party claims of infringement may result in loss of revenue, substantial costs or leadto monetary damages or injunctive relief against us.
The Company is subject to customer claims, litigation and other regulatory or legal proceedings.
The Company is currently engaged in, or subject to, various customer claims, litigation and other regulatory andlegal matters and may be subject to additional claims, litigation and other regulatory or legal proceedings in the future.
Such matters expose the Company to risks that could be material, including, but not limited to, risks related to
employment disputes, tax controversies, government investigations, intellectual property infringement, compliance withenvironmental laws, unfair sales practices, product safety and liability, and product warranty, indemnity and othercontract-related claims. These matters may subject the Company to lawsuits, voluntary or forced product recalls,
government investigations and criminal liability, including claims for compensatory, punitive or consequential damages,
and could result in disruptions to our business and significant legal expenses. These matters could also damage our
reputation, harm our relationships with customers or negatively affect product demand.
While the Company does maintain certain insurance coverages that may mitigate losses associated with some ofthese types of claims and proceedings, the policies may not apply and, where insurance exists, the amount of insurance
coverage may not be adequate to cover the total claims and liabilities. In some cases, particularly with respect to productwarranty claims from customers, we self-insure against this risk, meaning that any product liability claims will likely
have to be paid from Company funds and not by insurance. Any current or future substantial liabilities or regulatory
actions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows and reputation.
The Company is subject to environmental laws and regulations that could adversely affect our business.
The Company operates in both the United States and various foreign jurisdictions, and we must comply with locallyenacted laws and regulations addressing health, safety and environmental matters in such jurisdictions in which we
manufacture and/or sell our products. Certain operations of the Company are subject to locally enacted environmental
laws and regulations that govern the discharge of pollutants into the air and water, as well as the handling and disposal ofsolid and hazardous wastes. The Company and its operations may be subject to liabilities, regardless of fault, forinvestigative and/or remediation efforts on such matters that may arise at any of the Company’s former or current
properties, either owned or leased. For example, as disclosed in Note 14 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements, the Company was named as one of several defendants in four separate lawsuits filed in the State of Indiana
relating to a manufacturing site in Franklin, Indiana where the Company has been conducting an environmental clean-up
effort under the direction of the United States Environmental Protection Agency. All the costs incurred by the Company
relating to these lawsuits as well as all costs associated with the clean-up effort at the manufacturing site have been
reimbursed by the former owner pursuant to an indemnification agreement entered into in connection with theacquisition of the manufacturing site as part of a larger acquisition that led to the establishment of the Company’sbusiness in 1987. Environmental liabilities can result from the use of hazardous materials in production, the disposal of
products, damages associated with the use of any of our products or other related matters. We cannot be certain as to thepotential impact of any changes to environmental conditions or environmental policies that may arise in any of ourjurisdictions. Our failure to comply with these local environmental laws and regulations could result in fines or other21

punitive damages and/or modifications to our production processes as well as subject us to reputational harm, any ofwhich could adversely impact our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
The Company is subject to, and may continue to be subject to, incremental costs, risks and regulations associatedwith efforts to combat the negative effects of climate change.
There is increased public awareness regarding climate change. This increased focus has led to international treaties
and agreements and legislative and regulatory efforts. In addition to the risks discussed under the risk factors titled “TheCompany may be negatively impacted by extreme weather conditions and natural catastrophic events, including thosecaused or intensified by climate change and global warming” and “Increasing scrutiny and expectations regarding ESG
matters could result in additional costs or risks or otherwise adversely impact our business,” the Company may also be
subject to larger, global climate change initiatives, laws, regulations or orders, such as any laws or regulations to
implement the Paris Climate Agreement, which seek to reduce greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions. In addition to
government requirements, our customers are also increasingly imposing climate-related requirements on their suppliers,
including us. Any failure, or perceived failure, to comply with these requirements may result in reduced demand for our
products, reputational harm, or other adverse impacts to our business.
Given our global manufacturing presence, any future regulations relating to GHG emissions and/or other climatechange-related laws and regulations, beyond initiatives already in process at the Company, could subject us to additional
and/or unforeseen compliance costs and limitations, increased energy and raw material costs and incremental capital
expenditure requirements. In addition, there may be additional mandatory climate-related reporting obligations, andpotentially GHG emissions reduction requirements, which would likely result in increased corporate- and operational
general and administrative efforts and associated costs and expenses.
Any future regulatory changes in any of the countries in which we operate could result in transition risks to theCompany, including, but not limited to: (i) the nature and timing of any requirement to lower GHG emissions and adopt
more energy-efficient energy use, which could result in changes or disruptions to the way the Company operates,(ii) financial risks where the compliance with such regulations requires unforeseen capital expenditures and becomes
costly or financially burdensome, (iii) legal risks associated with the failure to adapt to or comply with future climatechange-related regulations, (iv) risks of climate litigation associated with our disclosures and/or operations; (v) risks
associated with the implementation of any new technologies required to comply with such regulations, which could
impede our ability to innovate new products, meet customer and market demand or compete on pricing and quality in themarket, and/or (vi) reputational risks associated with our customers’ and investors’ perceptions of the Company and theirpreferences for maintaining relationships with companies with lower emissions, all of which could harm our reputationin the marketplace.

condition, are reasonably maintained and substantially all of its facilities are in regular use. The Company considers thepresent level of fixed assets along with planned capital expenditures as suitable and adequate for operations in thecurrent business environment. At December 31, 2022, the Company operated approximately 240 manufacturing
facilities with approximately 24.0 million square feet, of which approximately 17.0 million square feet were leased.
Manufacturing facilities located in the U.S. had approximately 4.0 million square feet, of which approximately 2.0
million square feet were leased. Manufacturing facilities located outside the U.S. had approximately 20.0 million square

In 2022, the Company reported net sales, operating income and net income from continuing operations attributable
to Amphenol Corporation of $12,623.0, $2,585.8 and $1,902.3, respectively, representing an increase of 16%, 23% and21%, respectively, from 2021. In 2022, the Company’s net income from continuing operations attributable to Amphenol
Corporation was impacted by (a) excess tax benefits of $56.0 related to stock-based compensation resulting from stock
option exercises, partially offset by (b) acquisition-related expenses of $21.5 ($18.4 after-tax) comprised primarily of theamortization related to the value associated with acquired backlog resulting from two acquisitions that closed in 2022,

27

along with external transaction costs. In 2021, the Company’s net income from continuing operations attributable toAmphenol Corporation was impacted by (a) excess tax benefits of $63.4 related to stock-based compensation resulting
from stock option exercises and (b) a discrete tax benefit of $14.9 related to the settlement of uncertain tax positions incertain non-U.S. jurisdictions, partially offset by (c) acquisition-related expenses of $70.4 ($57.3 after-tax) comprised
primarily of transaction, severance, restructuring and certain non-cash purchase accounting costs related to theacquisition of MTS Systems Corporation (“MTS”) in the second quarter of 2021 and external transaction costs andcertain non-cash purchase accounting costs related to the acquisition of Halo Technology Limited (“Halo”) in the fourth
quarter of 2021. Excluding the effects of these items, Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted Net Income fromcontinuing operations attributable to Amphenol Corporation, each as defined in the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”
section below and reconciled within this Part II, Item 7, increased by 20% and 20%, respectively, in 2022 compared to2021. Sales and profitability trends are discussed in detail in “Results of Operations” below. In addition, a strength of
the Company has been its ability to consistently generate net cash provided by operating activities from continuing
operations (“Operating Cash Flow”). The Company uses Operating Cash Flow to fund capital expenditures andacquisitions, repurchase shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock (“Common Stock”), pay dividends and reduceindebtedness. In 2022, the Company generated Operating Cash Flow of $2,174.6 and Free Cash Flow of $1,796.4. Free
Cash Flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined in the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section below andreconciled within this Part II, Item 7.
Impact of COVID-19 on our Business, Operations, Financial Condition, Liquidity and Results of Operations
Since early 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted our offices and manufacturing facilities around the world,
as well as the facilities of our suppliers, customers and our customers’ contract manufacturers. These disruptions haveincluded, and may continue to include, government regulations that inhibit our ability to operate certain of our facilities
in the ordinary course, travel restrictions, supplier constraints, supply chain interruptions, logistics challenges andlimitations, labor disruptions and reduced demand from certain customers. During much of 2022, COVID-19 outbreaks
in China resulted in local or regional government-imposed lockdowns and restrictions, which impacted the ability ofseveral of our operations and manufacturing facilities to operate in the ordinary course. As of December 31, 2022, there
continue to be isolated COVID-19 outbreaks in certain regions of the world, particularly in China, but these outbreaks
have not had a significant impact on our operations. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will continue toimpact our business, operations, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations in 2023 and beyond remains
uncertain and unpredictable. For further discussion on the risks and uncertainties associated with the COVID-19
pandemic, refer to Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors herein.
Inflation Reduction Act of 2022
On August 16, 2022, the President of the United States signed into law the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the“IRA”), a tax and spending package that introduces several tax-related provisions, including a 15% corporate alternative
minimum tax (“CAMT”) on certain large corporations and a 1% excise tax on certain corporate stock repurchases.
Companies will be required to reassess their valuation allowances for certain affected deferred tax assets in the period ofenactment but will not need to remeasure deferred tax balances for the related tax accounting implications of the CAMT.
The impact of these provisions, which became effective for Amphenol beginning on January 1, 2023, is dependent on
several factors, including interpretive regulatory guidance, which has not yet been released. The Company has reviewed
and assessed the provisions of the IRA, including several other non-tax related provisions, and the Company does not
currently believe that the IRA will have a material impact on its financial condition, results of operations, liquidity andcash flows.

2022 Compared to 2021
Net sales were $12,623.0 for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $10,876.3 for the year ended
December 31, 2021, which represented an increase of 16% in U.S. dollars, 19% in constant currencies and 15%organically (excluding both currency and acquisition impacts) over the prior year. The increase in net sales in 2022 wasdriven by robust growth across all three reportable business segments, as described below. From a market standpoint,
the increase in net sales was driven by robust organic growth across most end markets, including the automotive,
informational technology and data communications, industrial, broadband communications and commercial aerospacemarkets, moderate organic growth in the military, mobile networks and mobile devices markets, and contributions fromthe Company’s acquisition program. Net sales to the automotive market increased (approximately $470.1), reflecting
broad-based growth across our global automotive market, including the Company’s strength in next-generationelectronics, in particular electric and hybrid drive trains, power management, infotainment communications, antenna andantenna assemblies, charging stations, and safety and security systems. Net sales to the information technology and data
communications market increased (approximately $414.6), as we continue to benefit from our strong technology
solutions and leading position across a broad array of applications as customers continue to support higher demand forincreased bandwidth and cloud storage, along with contributions from acquisitions. Net sales to the industrial market
increased (approximately $399.7), with broad-based growth across nearly all market segments of the global industrial
market, with particular strength in e-mobility applications primarily in heavy and commercial vehicles, along with strong
growth in factory automation, alternative energy, medical, and transportation applications, as well as contributions fromacquisitions. Net sales to the broadband communications market increased (approximately $241.2), driven by increased
overall demand from broadband service operators related to data network upgrades and expansions, along with
contributions from acquisitions. Net sales to the commercial aerospace market increased (approximately $85.6),
primarily due to the continued recovery in travel and demand for aircraft, along with contributions from acquisitions.
Net sales to the military market increased (approximately $47.9), driven by strength in space-related applications,
unmanned aerial vehicles, ground vehicles, and avionics, as well as contributions from acquisitions. Net sales to themobile networks market increased (approximately $46.4), driven by a continued recovery in demand from mobile
networks equipment manufacturers and mobile operators, along with contributions from acquisitions. Net sales to themobile devices market increased (approximately $41.2), driven by growth in products incorporated into smartphones andwearable devices, partially offset by moderations in sales of tablets, hearable devices and laptops.
Net sales in the Harsh Environment Solutions segment (approximately 25% of net sales) increased 13% in U.S.
dollars, 16% in constant currencies and 15% organically, in 2022, compared to 2021. The sales growth in 2022 wasdriven by strong organic growth in the industrial, automotive and commercial aerospace markets, and moderate organic
growth in the military, mobile networks and information technology and data communications markets, along with
contributions from the Company’s acquisition program.

29

Net sales in the Communications Solutions segment (approximately 45% of net sales) increased 17% in U.S.
dollars, 19% in constant currencies and 13% organically, in 2022, compared to 2021. The sales growth in 2022 wasdriven by strong organic growth across several end markets, in particular the information technology and data
communications, broadband communications and automotive markets, and moderate organic growth in the mobile
devices, industrial and mobile networks markets, along with contributions from the Company’s acquisition program.
Net sales in the Interconnect and Sensor Systems segment (approximately 30% of net sales) increased 17% in U.S.
dollars, 23% in constant currencies and 18% organically, in 2022, compared to 2021. The sales growth in 2022 wasdriven primarily by strong organic growth in the automotive, industrial, information technology and data
communications, military and commercial aerospace markets, along with contributions from the Company’s acquisition
program, partially offset by a moderate decline in the mobile networks market.

(1) Percentages in this table were calculated using actual, unrounded results; therefore, the sum of the components may not add due to rounding.
(2) Net sales growth in U.S. dollars is calculated based on Net sales as reported in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Note 13 of the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements. While the term “net sales growth in U.S. dollars” is not considered a U.S. GAAP financial measure, for purposes of this table, we derive thereported (GAAP) measure based on GAAP results, which serves as the basis for the reconciliation to its comparable non-GAAP financial measures.
(3) Foreign currency translation impact, a non-GAAP measure, represents the percentage impact on net sales resulting from foreign currency exchange rate changes in thecurrent reporting year compared to the prior reporting year. Such amount is calculated by subtracting current year net sales translated at average foreign currency
exchange rates for the prior year from current year net sales, taken as a percentage of the prior year’s net sales.
(4) Constant Currency Net Sales Growth and Organic Net Sales Growth are non-GAAP financial measures as defined in the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section ofthis Item 7.
(5) Acquisition impact, a non-GAAP measure, represents the percentage impact on net sales resulting from acquisitions that have not been included in the Company’s
consolidated results for the full current year and/or prior comparable year presented. Such net sales related to these acquisitions do not reflect the underlying growth of
the Company on a comparative basis. Acquisition impact is calculated as a percentage of the respective prior year period(s) net sales.
(6) Net sales by geographic area are based on the customer location to which the product is shipped.

The increase in foreign net sales in 2022 compared to 2021 was driven by strong growth in both Europe and Asia.
The comparatively stronger U.S. dollar in 2022 had the effect of decreasing sales by approximately $359.8, compared to
2021.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $1,420.9, or 11.3% of net sales for 2022, compared to $1,226.3,
or 11.3% of net sales for 2021. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales in 2022
remained flat as the leverage on the higher sales volumes during the year was offset by the MTS Sensors business,acquired in early 2021, having higher selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales comparedto the average of the Company. Administrative expenses increased $90.6 in 2022, and represented approximately 4.6%of net sales in 2022 and 4.5% of net sales in 2021. Research and development expenses increased $5.9 in 2022 primarily
related to increases in expenses for new product development, and represented approximately 2.6% of net sales in 2022
and 2.9% of net sales in 2021. Selling and marketing expenses increased $98.1 in 2022 compared to 2021, andrepresented approximately 4.1% of net sales in 2022 and 3.8% of net sales in 2021.

Operating income was $2,585.8, or 20.5% of net sales in 2022, compared to $2,105.1, or 19.4% of net sales in 2021.
Operating income in 2022 included acquisition-related expenses of $21.5, comprised primarily of the amortization
related to the value associated with acquired backlog resulting from two acquisitions that closed in 2022, along withexternal transaction costs. Operating income in 2021 included acquisition-related expenses of $70.4, comprised
primarily of transaction, severance, restructuring and certain non-cash purchase accounting costs related to theacquisition of MTS in the second quarter of 2021, along with external transaction costs and certain non-cash purchaseaccounting costs related to the acquisition of Halo in the fourth quarter of 2021. The acquisition-related expenses in
2022 and 2021 had the effect of decreasing net income from continuing operations by $18.4, or $0.03 per share, and$57.3, or $0.09 per share, respectively. Acquisition-related expenses are presented separately in the Consolidated
Statements of Income. Excluding the effect of these acquisition-related expenses, Adjusted Operating Income andAdjusted Operating Margin, each as defined in the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section below, were $2,607.3 and20.7% of net sales, respectively, in 2022, and $2,175.5 and 20.0% of net sales, respectively, in 2021. The increases in
Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted Operating Margin in 2022 relative to 2021 was driven by all three segments,
as described below.
Operating income for the Harsh Environment Solutions segment in 2022 was $801.6, or 25.8% of net sales,
compared to $708.2, or 25.7% of net sales in 2021. The slight increase in operating margin for the Harsh Environment
Solutions segment for 2022 compared to 2021 was primarily driven by normal operating leverage on the higher sales
volumes, combined with the benefit of pricing actions, which were largely offset by the impact of the more challenging
cost environment experienced in 2022.
Operating income for the Communications Solutions segment in 2022 was $1,245.7, or 22.0% of net sales,
compared to $1,023.3, or 21.2% of net sales in 2021. The increase in operating margin for the Communications
Solutions segment for 2022 compared to 2021 was primarily driven by normal operating leverage on the higher sales
volumes, combined with the benefit of pricing actions, partially offset by the impact of the more challenging costenvironment experienced in 2022.
Operating income for the Interconnect and Sensor Systems segment in 2022 was $716.5, or 18.5% of net sales,
compared to $588.1, or 17.9% of net sales in 2021. The increase in operating margin for the Interconnect and Sensor
Systems segment for 2022 compared to 2021 was primarily driven by normal operating leverage on the higher sales
volumes, combined with the benefit of pricing actions, partially offset by the impact of the more challenging costenvironment experienced in 2022.
Interest expense was $128.4 in 2022 compared to $115.5 in 2021. The increase in interest expense was driven by
the rising interest rate environment and its impact on the balance outstanding under the Company’s U.S. Commercial
Paper Program. Refer to Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information related to theCompany’s debt.
Provision for income taxes was at an effective rate of 22.3% in 2022 and 20.6% in 2021. Provision for income taxes
in 2022 included excess tax benefits of $56.0 from stock option exercises, partially offset by the tax effects related toacquisition-related expenses during the year. These items had the aggregate effect of decreasing the effective tax rateand increasing earnings per share by the amounts noted in the table below. Provision for income taxes in 2021 included(i) excess tax benefits of $63.4 from stock option exercises and (ii) a discrete tax benefit of $14.9 related to thesettlement of uncertain tax positions in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions, all of which was partially offset by the tax effects
related to acquisition-related expenses during the year. These items had the aggregate effect of decreasing the effective
tax rate and increasing earnings per share by the amounts noted in the table below. Excluding the effect of these items,
the Adjusted Effective Tax Rate, a non-GAAP financial measure as defined in the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”
section below within this Item 7, was 24.5% and 24.3% for 2022 and 2021, respectively, as reconciled in the table below
to the comparable effective tax rate based on GAAP results. For additional details related to the reconciliation between
the U.S. statutory federal tax rate and the Company’s effective tax rate for these years, refer to Note 6 of the Notes toConsolidated Financial Statements.
Net income from continuing operations attributable to Amphenol Corporation and Net income from continuing
operations per common share attributable to Amphenol Corporation-Diluted (“Diluted EPS”) were $1,902.3 and $3.06,
respectively, for 2022, compared to $1,569.4 and $2.51, respectively, for 2021. Excluding the effect of the items
discussed above, Adjusted Net Income from continuing operations attributable to Amphenol Corporation and Adjusted
Diluted EPS, non-GAAP financial measures as defined in the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section below within
this Item 7, were $1,864.7 and $3.00, respectively, for 2022, compared to $1,548.4 and $2.48, respectively, for 2021.

2021 Compared to 2020
Net sales were $10,876.3 for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to $8,598.9 for the year ended
December 31, 2020, which represented an increase of 26% in U.S. dollars, 25% in constant currencies and 18%
organically (excluding both currency and acquisition impacts) over the prior year. The increase in net sales in 2021 wasdriven by robust growth across all three reportable business segments, as described below. From a market standpoint,
the increase in net sales was driven by strong organic growth across nearly all end markets, including the industrial,
automotive, information technology and data communications, military and mobile networks markets, moderate growthin the mobile devices market, and contributions from the Company’s acquisition program. This strong sales growth in
2021 also reflected a recovery in certain markets from the more negative impact resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic
during 2020. This sales growth was partially offset by a decline in the commercial aerospace market, which continued tobe negatively impacted by the significant impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on travel and aircraft production. Net sales
to the industrial market increased (approximately $864.6), with broad-based growth across nearly all market segments ofthe global industrial market, with particular strength in heavy equipment, factory automation, industrial instrumentation,battery and heavy electric vehicle, alternative energy, rail mass transit, and transportation, along with contributions fromacquisitions. Net sales to the automotive market increased (approximately $683.4), reflecting the continued recovery
and growth in most regions of the global automotive market, as well as the Company’s expanded position in nextgeneration electronics, including in particular electric and hybrid drive trains. Net sales to the information technology
and data communications market increased (approximately $482.7), driven primarily by continued strong sales growth to
web service providers and broad-based market demand for server, storage and networking related products as customers
worked to support higher demand for increased bandwidth. Net sales to the military market increased (approximately$135.8), driven by strength across nearly all segments of the military market, including missile, military communications
and naval and space-related applications, along with a recovery from the impact of pandemic-related production
disruptions experienced during the first half of 2020, as well as contributions from acquisitions. Net sales to the mobile
networks market increased (approximately $60.5), driven by a recovery in demand from mobile networks equipment
manufacturers and mobile operators, which was primarily driven by increased demand for products used in 5G networkbuild-outs and contributions from acquisitions, offset in part by reductions of sales to certain customers in China thatwere added to the U.S. Department of Commerce’s “Entity List”. Net sales to the mobile devices market increased(approximately $45.7), driven by growth in products incorporated into laptops and wearable devices, along withproduction-related products, and was partially offset by moderations of sales into smartphones and tablets. Net sales tothe commercial aerospace market decreased (approximately $26.6) primarily due to the continued significant impact of
the COVID-19 pandemic on travel and aircraft production during that period.

Net sales in the Harsh Environment Solutions segment (approximately 25% of net sales) increased 20% in U.S.
dollars, 19% in constant currencies and 15% organically, in 2021, compared to 2020. The sales growth in 2021 wasdriven primarily by strong organic growth in the industrial, automotive, and information technology and data
communications markets, moderate organic growth in the military market, and contributions from the Company’s
acquisition program, all of which was partially offset by a decline in the commercial aerospace market.
Net sales in the Communications Solutions segment (approximately 45% of net sales) increased 19% in U.S.
dollars, 18% in constant currencies and 16% organically, in 2021, compared to 2020. The sales growth in 2021 wasdriven by strong organic growth across several end markets, including the information technology and data
communications, industrial, and automotive markets, moderate organic growth in the mobile networks, mobile devices,and military markets, and contributions from the Company’s acquisition program.
Net sales in the Interconnect and Sensor Systems segment (approximately 30% of net sales) increased 46% in U.S.
dollars, 43% in constant currencies and 26% organically, in 2021, compared to 2020. The sales growth in 2021 wasdriven primarily by strong organic growth in the automotive, information technology and data communications,industrial and mobile networks markets, along with contributions from the Company’s acquisition program, all of which
was partially offset by a decline in the commercial aerospace market in that period.

(1) Percentages in this table were calculated using actual, unrounded results; therefore, the sum of the components may not add due to rounding.
(2) Net sales growth in U.S. dollars is calculated based on Net sales as reported in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Note 13 of the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements. While the term “net sales growth in U.S. dollars” is not considered a U.S. GAAP financial measure, for purposes of this table, we derive thereported (GAAP) measure based on GAAP results, which serves as the basis for the reconciliation to its comparable non-GAAP financial measures.
(3) Foreign currency translation impact, a non-GAAP measure, represents the percentage impact on net sales resulting from foreign currency exchange rate changes in thecurrent reporting year compared to the prior reporting year. Such amount is calculated by subtracting current year net sales translated at average foreign currency
exchange rates for the prior year from current year net sales, taken as a percentage of the prior year’s net sales.
(4) Constant Currency Net Sales Growth and Organic Net Sales Growth are non-GAAP financial measures as defined in the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section ofthis Item 7.
(5) Acquisition impact, a non-GAAP measure, represents the percentage impact on net sales resulting from acquisitions that have not been included in the Company’s
consolidated results for the full current year and/or prior comparable year presented. Such net sales related to these acquisitions do not reflect the underlying growth of
the Company on a comparative basis. Acquisition impact is calculated as a percentage of the respective prior year period(s) net sales.
(6) Net sales by geographic area are based on the customer location to which the product is shipped.

The increase in foreign net sales in 2021 compared to 2020 was driven by strong growth in both Europe and Asia.
The comparatively weaker U.S. dollar in 2021 had the effect of increasing sales by approximately $159.1, compared to2020.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $1,226.3, or 11.3% of net sales for 2021, compared to $1,014.2,
or 11.8% of net sales for 2020. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales
in 2021 was driven primarily by higher sales during the year, relative to 2020 which was more negatively impacted by
the COVID-19 pandemic, slightly offset by the impact of the MTS Sensors business, acquired in 2021, which has higher
selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales compared to the average of the Company.
Administrative expenses increased $78.6 in 2021, and represented approximately 4.5% of net sales in 2021 and 4.8% of
net sales in 2020. Research and development expenses increased $57.0 in 2021 primarily related to increases in33

expenses for new product development, and represented approximately 2.9% of net sales in 2021 and 3.0% of net sales
in 2020. Selling and marketing expenses increased $76.5 in 2021 compared to 2020, and represented approximately
3.8% of net sales in 2021 and 4.0% of net sales in 2020.
Operating income was $2,105.1, or 19.4% of net sales in 2021, compared to $1,638.4, or 19.1% of net sales in 2020.
Operating income in 2021 included acquisition-related expenses of $70.4, comprised primarily of transaction, severance,
restructuring and certain non-cash purchase accounting costs related to the MTS acquisition in the second quarter of2021, along with external transaction costs and certain non-cash purchase accounting costs related to the Haloacquisition in the fourth quarter of 2021. Operating income in 2020 included acquisition-related expenses of $11.5,
comprised primarily of external transaction costs related to acquisitions that were announced or closed. These
acquisition-related expenses in 2021 and 2020 had the effect of decreasing net income from continuing operations by$57.3, or $0.09 per share, and $10.7, or $0.02 per share, respectively. Acquisition-related expenses are presented
separately in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Excluding the effect of these acquisition-related expenses,
Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted Operating Margin, each as defined in the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”
section below, were $2,175.5 and 20.0% of net sales, respectively, in 2021, and $1,649.9 and 19.2% of net sales,
respectively, in 2020. The increase in Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted Operating Margin in 2021 relative to2020 was driven by all three segments, and in particular, by normal operating leverage on the higher sales volumes
combined with the benefit of a lower cost impact resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic compared to 2020, partially
offset by the impact of the more challenging commodity and supply chain environment experienced in 2021, along with
the impact of the Company’s 2021 acquisitions.
Operating income for the Harsh Environment Solutions segment in 2021 was $708.2, or 25.7% of net sales,
compared to $556.8, or 24.4% of net sales in 2020. The increase in operating margin for the Harsh Environment
Solutions segment for 2021 compared to 2020 was primarily driven by normal operating leverage on the higher sales
volumes combined with the benefit of a lower cost impact resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic compared to 2020,
partially offset by the impact of the more challenging commodity, logistics and supply chain environment experienced in
2021.
Operating income for the Communications Solutions segment in 2021 was $1,023.3, or 21.2% of net sales,
compared to $871.2, or 21.5% of net sales in 2020. The slight decrease in operating margin for the Communications
Solutions segment for 2021 compared to 2020 was primarily driven by the impact of the more challenging commodity,
logistics and supply chain environment experienced in 2021, which was largely offset by the normal operating leverageon the higher sales volumes combined with the benefit of a lower cost impact resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic
compared to 2020.
Operating income for the Interconnect and Sensor Systems segment in 2021 was $588.1, or 17.9% of net sales,
compared to $348.6, or 15.4% of net sales in 2020. The increase in operating margin for the Interconnect and Sensor
Systems segment for 2021 compared to 2020 was primarily driven by normal operating leverage on the higher sales
volumes combined with the benefit of a lower cost impact resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic compared to 2020,
partially offset by the impact of the more challenging commodity, logistics and supply chain environment experienced in
2021, along with the impact of the Company’s 2021 acquisitions, in particular the MTS Sensors business closed in
April 2021, which operated at a lower operating margin compared to the average of the Interconnect and Sensor Systems
segment.
Interest expense was $115.5 in 2021 compared to $115.4 in 2020. Refer to Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements for further information related to the Company’s debt.
Provision for income taxes was at an effective rate of 20.6% in 2021 and 20.5% in 2020. Provision for income taxes
in 2021 included (i) excess tax benefits of $63.4 from stock option exercises and (ii) a discrete tax benefit of $14.9
related to the settlement of uncertain tax positions in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions, all of which was partially offset by
the tax effects related to acquisition-related expenses during the year. These items had the aggregate effect of decreasing
the effective tax rate and increasing earnings per share by the amounts noted in the table below. Provision for income
taxes in 2020 included (i) excess tax benefits of $42.8 from stock option exercises and (ii) a discrete tax benefit of $19.9
related to the settlements of refund claims in a non-U.S. jurisdiction and the resulting adjustments to deferred taxes,
which were partially offset by the tax effects related to acquisition-related expenses during the year. These items had theaggregate effect of decreasing the effective tax rate and increasing earnings per share by the amounts noted in the tablebelow. Excluding the effect of these items, the Adjusted Effective Tax Rate, a non-GAAP financial measure as definedin the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section below within this Item 7, was 24.3% and 24.5% for 2021 and 2020,34

respectively, as reconciled in the table below to the comparable effective tax rate based on GAAP results. For additional
details related to the reconciliation between the U.S. statutory federal tax rate and the Company’s effective tax rate forthese years, refer to Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Net income from continuing operations attributable to Amphenol Corporation and Diluted EPS were $1,569.4 and$2.51, respectively, for 2021, compared to $1,203.4 and $1.96, respectively, for 2020. Excluding the effect of the items
discussed above, Adjusted Net Income from continuing operations attributable to Amphenol Corporation and Adjusted
Diluted EPS, non-GAAP financial measures as defined in the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section below within
this Item 7, were $1,548.4 and $2.48, respectively, for 2021, compared to $1,151.4 and $1.87, respectively, for 2020.
The following table reconciles Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Operating Margin, Adjusted Net Income fromcontinuing operations attributable to Amphenol Corporation, Adjusted Effective Tax Rate and Adjusted Diluted EPS (allon a continuing operations basis only, each as defined in the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section below) to themost directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020:

(1) While the terms “operating margin” and “effective tax rate” are not considered U.S. GAAP financial measures, for purposes of this table, we
derive the reported (GAAP) measures based on GAAP results, which serve as the basis for the reconciliation to their comparable non-GAAP
financial measures.
(2) All percentages and per share amounts in this table were calculated using actual, unrounded results; therefore, the sum of the components may not
add due to rounding.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity and Cash Requirements
At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $1,434.2
and $1,241.4, respectively, with the vast majority of the Company’s cash, cash equivalents and short-term investmentson hand located outside of the United States.
The Company’s primary sources of liquidity are internally generated cash provided by operating activities, our cash,
cash equivalents and short-term investments on hand, as well as availability under the U.S. Commercial Paper Program,the Euro Commercial Paper Program, the Revolving Credit Facility, and the 2022 Term Loan (all of which are definedand discussed in more detail below within this Item 7). The Company believes that these sources of liquidity, along withaccess to capital markets, provide adequate liquidity to meet both its short-term (next 12 months) and reasonably
foreseeable long-term requirements and obligations.
Cash Requirements from Known Contractual and Other Obligations
The Company’s primary ongoing cash requirements will be for operating and working capital needs, capital
expenditures, product development activities, repurchases of our Common Stock, dividends, debt service, payments
associated with the one-time tax on the deemed repatriation of all of the Company’s pre-2018 accumulated unremitted
earnings and profits of foreign subsidiaries (“Transition Tax”), which is payable in annual installments until 2025, taxes
due upon the repatriation of foreign earnings (which will be payable upon the repatriation of such earnings), funding ofpension obligations, and other contractual obligations and commitments (refer to the table below for the Company’s
material cash requirements from known contractual and other obligations). The Company may also use cash to fund allor part of the cost of future acquisitions. The Company expects that capital expenditures in 2023 will be in a range of35

3% to 4% of net sales. The Company’s debt service requirements consist primarily of principal and interest on the
Company’s Senior Notes, and to the extent of any amounts outstanding, the Revolving Credit Facility, Commercial
Paper Programs and the 2022 Term Loan (all as defined below). As of December 31, 2022, outstanding borrowings
under the U.S. Commercial Paper Program were at a weighted average floating interest rate of 4.69%, while there wereno outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, 2022 Term Loan and Euro Commercial Paper Program.
As a result of recent increases in the federal funds rate by the U.S. Federal Reserve, the floating interest rates related to
our U.S. Commercial Paper Program increased substantially over the course of 2022, a trend that could continue
throughout 2023. Consequently, the Company currently expects the floating interest rates related to its U.S. Commercial
Paper Program (as well as its Revolving Credit Facility and 2022 Term Loan, to the extent either are drawn upon in the
future) to continue to increase in the first quarter of 2023 and potentially beyond, which is expected to result in increased
interest expense in 2023 as compared to 2022. Although the Company does not expect changes in interest rates to havea material effect on income or cash flows in 2023, primarily due to our current expected limited reliance on borrowings
tied to floating rates of interest, there can be no assurance that interest rates will not change significantly from current
levels.
The following table summarizes the Company’s material short- and long-term cash requirements from known
obligations pursuant to certain contracts and commitments as of December 31, 2022, as well as an estimate of the timing
in which such obligations and payments are expected to be satisfied.

$ 6,522.2 $ 1,063.9 $ 1,130.5 $ 1,395.8 $ 2,932.0(1) The Company has excluded expected interest payments on the Revolving Credit Facility, 2022 Term Loan, U.S. Commercial Paper Program and Euro Commercial
Paper Program from the above table, as this calculation is largely dependent on average debt levels during each of the years presented. The actual interest payments
made related to the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility, 2022 Term Loan and both Commercial Paper Programs combined, in 2022, were approximately $21.1.
Expected debt levels, and therefore expected interest payments, are difficult to predict, as they are significantly impacted by items such as future acquisitions,repurchases of Common Stock and dividend payments, as well as payments or additional borrowings made to reduce or increase the underlying revolver balance.
(2) The Company’s operating lease payments included in this table reflect the future minimum undiscounted fixed lease payments, which serve as the basis for calculating
the Company’s operating lease liabilities as of December 31, 2022. The table above excludes any variable lease payments not included in the measurement of theCompany’s right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities, due to their uncertainty. Finance leases are not material to the Company individually or in the aggregate
and as such have been excluded from the table above.
(3) Purchase obligations relate primarily to open purchase orders for goods and services, including but not limited to, raw materials and components to be used in
production.
(4) This table includes estimated benefit payments expected to be made under the Company’s unfunded pension and postretirement benefit plans, as well as the anticipatedminimum required contributions under the Company’s funded pension plans, the most significant of which covers certain of its U.S. employees. Over the past several
years, there has been no minimum requirement for Company contributions to our defined benefit pension plans in the United States (“U.S. Plans”) due to priorcontributions made in excess of minimum requirements, and as a result, there was no anticipated minimum required contribution included in the table above related to
the U.S. Plans for 2023. The Company did not make any voluntary contributions to its U.S. Plans in 2022 and 2021. It is not possible to reasonably estimate expected
required contributions in the above table after 2023 since several assumptions are required to calculate minimum required contributions, such as the discount rate andexpected returns on pension assets.
(5) As a result of the enactment of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (“Tax Act”) in December 2017, the United States changed to a modified territorial tax system,
which significantly reduced the U.S. tax expense associated with the remittance of foreign earnings, among other changes. The Tax Act also imposed the Transition
Tax associated with all of the Company’s pre-2018 accumulated unremitted earnings and profits of foreign subsidiaries. As a result, on December 31, 2017, theCompany recorded a provisional U.S. tax expense for the Transition Tax, which was adjusted and finalized in 2018. The Transition Tax is to be paid in annual
installments over the eight-year period until 2025, as permitted under the Tax Act. The table above reflects the remaining amounts associated with the Transition Tax,
which is net of applicable tax credits and deductions. The fifth installment of the Transition Tax was paid in the second quarter of 2022.
(6) As of December 31, 2022, the Company has recorded net liabilities of approximately $193.5 related to unrecognized tax benefits. These liabilities have been excluded
from the above table due to the high degree of uncertainty regarding the timing of potential future cash flows. It is difficult to make a reasonably reliable estimate of
the amount and period in which all of these liabilities might be paid.

Repatriation of Foreign Earnings and Related Income Taxes
The Company has previously indicated an intention to repatriate most of its pre-2022 accumulated earnings and has
accrued the foreign and U.S. state and local taxes, if applicable, on those earnings, as appropriate. The associated tax
payments are due as the repatriations are made. The Company intends to indefinitely reinvest the remaining pre-2022
foreign earnings. The Company intends to distribute certain 2022 foreign earnings and, as of December 31, 2022, has
accrued foreign and U.S. state and local taxes, where applicable, on those foreign earnings that we intend to repatriate,
and intends to indefinitely reinvest the remaining 2022 foreign earnings. The Company intends to (i) evaluate certain36

post-2022 earnings for repatriation, and will accrue for those distributions where appropriate, and (ii) indefinitely
reinvest all other foreign earnings. In addition, the Company paid its fifth annual installment of the Transition Tax, netof applicable tax credits and deductions, in the second quarter of 2022, and will pay the balance of the Transition Tax,
net of applicable tax credits and deductions, in annual installments over the remainder of the eight-year period ending
2025, as permitted under the Tax Act. As of December 31, 2022, the Company has not provided for deferred income
taxes on undistributed foreign earnings of approximately $1,100 related to certain geographies, as it is the Company’s
intention to permanently reinvest such earnings outside the United States. It is impracticable to calculate the amount oftaxes that would be payable if these undistributed foreign earnings were to be repatriated.

Operating Activities
The ability to generate cash from operating activities is one of the Company’s fundamental financial strengths.
Operating Cash Flow was $2,174.6 in 2022, compared to $1,523.9 in 2021 and $1,592.0 in 2020. The increase in
Operating Cash Flow in 2022 compared to 2021 was primarily due to both an increase in net income from continuing
operations and a lower usage of cash related to the change in working capital as discussed below. The decrease in
Operating Cash Flow in 2021 compared to 2020 was primarily due to a higher usage of cash related to the change inworking capital as discussed below, partially offset by an increase in net income from continuing operations.
In 2022, the components of working capital as presented on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Cash
Flow increased $193.1, excluding the impact of acquisitions and foreign currency translation, primarily due to increases
in inventories of $278.5 and accounts receivable of $273.1, partially offset by increases in accrued liabilities, including
income taxes, of $246.3 and accounts payable of $62.5, and a decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets of$49.7. In 2021, the components of working capital as presented on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Cash
Flow increased $496.4, excluding the impact of acquisitions and foreign currency translation, primarily due to increases
in accounts receivable, inventories, and prepaid expenses and other current assets of $398.4, $263.0 and $20.2,
respectively, partially offset by increases in accounts payable of $131.7 and accrued liabilities, including income taxes,of $53.5. In 2020, the components of working capital as presented on the accompanying Consolidated Statements ofCash Flow increased $38.9, excluding the impact of acquisitions and foreign currency translation, due to increases inaccounts receivable, inventories, and prepaid expenses and other current assets of $146.3, $102.0 and $88.6,
respectively, partially offset by increases in accounts payable of $204.3 and accrued liabilities, including income taxes,of $93.7.
The following describes the significant changes in the amounts as presented on the accompanying Consolidated
Balance Sheets at December 31, 2022 compared to December 31, 2021. Accounts receivable increased $176.5 to$2,631.3 primarily due to higher sales in the fourth quarter of 2022 relative to the fourth quarter of 2021, along with theimpact of the two acquisitions (collectively, the “2022 Acquisitions”) that closed during 2022, partially offset by theeffect of translation from exchange rate changes (“Translation”) at December 31, 2022 compared to December 31, 2021.
Days sales outstanding at December 31, 2022 and 2021 were 73 days and 71 days, respectively. Inventories increased$199.5 to $2,093.6, which was primarily driven by the impact of higher sales and the 2022 Acquisitions, along with theimpact of the ongoing supply chain disruptions experienced throughout 2022, partially offset by Translation. Inventory
days at December 31, 2022 and 2021 were 86 days and 80 days, respectively. Prepaid expenses and other current assets
decreased $47.9 to $320.0, primarily due to decreases in certain other current receivables. Property, plant and37

equipment, net, increased $29.0 to $1,204.3, primarily due to capital expenditures of $383.8 and the impact of the 2022
Acquisitions, partially offset by depreciation of $306.1, disposals and Translation. Goodwill increased $69.3 to$6,446.1, primarily driven by goodwill recognized resulting from the 2022 Acquisitions, partially offset by Translation.
Other intangible assets, net, decreased $22.8 to $734.1 due to the amortization of $81.0 related to the Company’s current
intangible assets, partially offset by the recognition of certain intangible assets related to recent acquisitions. Other longterm assets increased $51.4 to $462.6, primarily due to (i) the purchase of long-term certificates of deposit investmentsand (ii) an increase in operating lease right-of-use assets resulting from new and renewed lease agreements entered into
during 2022, along with leases assumed from acquisitions, partially offset by a decrease in prepaid pension assets
resulting from a decrease in the overfunded status of certain pension plans primarily in the U.S. Accounts payable
decreased $2.9 to $1,309.1, primarily due to Translation, largely offset by slightly increased purchasing activity related
to higher sales levels in the fourth quarter of 2022 relative to the fourth quarter of 2021, along with the effect of the 2022
Acquisitions. Payable days at December 31, 2022 and 2021 were 54 days and 56 days, respectively. Total accrued
expenses, including accrued income taxes, increased $233.2 to $1,364.3, primarily as a result of increases in accrued
income taxes, accrued salaries, wages and employee benefits and certain other accrued expenses, partially offset byTranslation. Accrued pension and postretirement benefit obligations decreased $65.5 to $127.9, primarily driven by asignificant decrease in our projected benefit obligations resulting from higher interest rates, along with Translation,
partially offset by negative returns on plan assets in 2022.
In 2022, 2021 and 2020, the Company made aggregate cash contributions to its defined benefit pension plans ofapproximately $6.3, $6.8 and $6.5, respectively. There is no current requirement for cash contributions to any of theCompany’s U.S. Plans, and the Company plans to evaluate annually, based on actuarial calculations and the investment
performance of the Plans’ assets, the timing and amount of cash contributions in the future, if any, as discussed in moredetail in Note 9 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
In addition to Operating Cash Flow, the Company also considers Free Cash Flow, a non-GAAP financial measuredefined in the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section below, as a key metric in measuring the Company’s ability togenerate cash. The following table reconciles Free Cash Flow to its most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial
measure for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020. The increase in Free Cash Flow in 2022 compared to2021 was driven by the increase in Operating Cash Flow, as described above. The decrease in Free Cash Flow in 2021
compared to 2020 was driven by the increase in capital expenditures to support our strong sales growth and, to a lesser
extent, the decrease in Operating Cash Flow, as described above. The following table is on a continuing operations basis
only and excludes any cash flows related to discontinued operations:Operating Cash Flow (GAAP) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Investing Activities
Cash flows from investing activities consist primarily of cash flows associated with capital expenditures, proceedsfrom disposals of property, plant and equipment, net purchases (sales and maturities) of short- and long-term
investments, and acquisitions.
Net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations was $731.1 in 2022, compared to $2,604.4 in 2021
and $333.5 in 2020. In 2022, net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations was driven primarily bycapital expenditures (net of disposals) of $378.2, the use of $288.2 to fund acquisitions, net purchases of long-term
investments of $56.0, and net purchases of short-term investments of $25.2. In 2021, net cash used in investing
activities from continuing operations was driven primarily by the use of $2,225.4 to fund acquisitions, capital
expenditures (net of disposals) of $356.7, and net purchases of short-term investments of $8.6. In 2020, net cash used ininvesting activities from continuing operations was driven primarily by capital expenditures (net of disposals) of $264.1,
the use of $50.4 to fund acquisitions, and net purchases of short-term investments of $18.4.

38

Financing Activities
Cash flows from financing activities consist primarily of cash flows associated with borrowings and repayments of
the Company’s credit facilities and other long-term debt, repurchases of Common Stock, proceeds from stock option
exercises, dividend payments, and distributions to and purchases of noncontrolling interests.
Net cash used in financing activities from continuing operations was $1,196.7 in 2022, compared to $145.1 in 2021
and $516.6 in 2020. In 2022, net cash used in financing activities from continuing operations was driven primarily by(i) repurchases of the Company’s Common Stock of $730.5, (ii) dividend payments of $477.4, (iii) net repayments of$159.3, primarily under the U.S. Commercial Paper Program, (iv) other debt repayments of $55.2, primarily related toshort-term debt, and (v) distributions to and purchases of noncontrolling interests of $9.9, partially offset by (a) cash
proceeds of $185.3 from the exercise of stock options and (b) proceeds of $50.7 primarily related to short-termborrowings. In 2021, net cash used in financing activities from continuing operations was driven primarily by (i) debt
repayments of $912.6, primarily related to the repayment of the assumed then-outstanding MTS senior notes in thesecond quarter of 2021 as well as the redemption of the 3.125% Senior Notes (the “2021 Senior Notes”) in the third
quarter of 2021 and the redemption of the 4.00% Senior Notes (the “2022 Senior Notes”) in the fourth quarter of 2021,(ii) repurchases of the Company’s Common Stock of $661.7, (iii) dividend payments of $346.7, (iv) a cash transfer of$28.7 made by the Company’s continuing operations to its discontinued operations in order to fund the September 2021
payment of contingent consideration assumed as part of the MTS acquisition, (v) distributions to and purchases ofnoncontrolling interests of $18.9, (vi) payments of $9.3 related to debt financing costs associated with the Company’s$750.0 principal amount of unsecured 2.200% Senior Notes due September 15, 2031 (the “2031 Senior Notes”), and(vii) payments of $4.1 associated with the deferred purchase price related to acquisitions, partially offset by (a) net
borrowings of $796.3 primarily under the U.S. Commercial Paper Program, the majority of the proceeds of which wereused to fund acquisitions, including MTS, and to redeem the 2021 Senior Notes and the 2022 Senior Notes, (b) net cash
proceeds of $752.1, primarily related to the September 2021 issuance of the 2031 Senior Notes, and (c) cash proceeds of$288.5 from the exercise of stock options. In 2020, net cash used in financing activities from continuing operations was
driven primarily by (i) repurchases of the Company’s Common Stock of $641.3, (ii) debt repayments of $404.4 related
to the Company’s 2.20% Senior Notes due April 2020 and other debt, (iii) net repayments of $385.8 related to theCompany’s Commercial Paper Programs, (iv) dividend payments of $297.6, (v) payment of $75.0 related to acquisitionrelated contingent consideration, (vi) payment of $16.2 associated with the deferred purchase price related to an
acquisition, (vii) distributions to and purchases of noncontrolling interests of $14.9, (vii) payments of $8.7 related to debt
financing costs primarily associated with its $400.0 principal amount of unsecured 2.050% Senior Notes due March 1,2025 (the “2025 Senior Notes”) and 2026 Euro Notes (defined below), and (viii) net repayments of $0.7 under theCompany’s credit facilities, partially offset by (a) aggregate net cash proceeds of $942.3 from both the February 2020
issuance of the 2025 Senior Notes and the May 2020 issuance of the 2026 Euro Notes and (b) cash proceeds of $385.7
from the exercise of stock options.
The Company has significant flexibility to meet its financial commitments. The Company uses debt financing tolower the overall cost of capital and increase return on stockholders’ equity. The Company’s debt financing includes theuse of Commercial Paper Programs, the Revolving Credit Facility, the 2022 Term Loan, and senior notes as part of its
overall cash management strategy.
On November 30, 2021, the Company amended and restated its $2,500.0 unsecured revolving credit facility (the“Revolving Credit Facility”). As a result, the Revolving Credit Facility no longer references the London Interbank
Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) for interest rate determinations. The Revolving Credit Facility maintains the lenders’aggregate commitments under the facility at $2,500.0. The Revolving Credit Facility matures in November 2026 andgives the Company the ability to borrow, in various currencies, at a spread that varies, based on the Company’s debt
rating, over certain currency-specific benchmark rates, which benchmark rates in the case of U.S. dollar borrowings areeither the base rate or the adjusted term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). The Company may utilize the
Revolving Credit Facility for general corporate purposes. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no outstanding
borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility requires payment of certain annual
agency and commitment fees and requires that the Company satisfy certain financial covenants. On December 31, 2022,
the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants under the Revolving Credit Facility.

39

Although the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority (the “FCA”), which regulates LIBOR, previously
announced its intent to phase out the use of LIBOR in 2023, the Company does not currently have nor does it expect tohave any more reliance on borrowings or any other financial instruments tied to LIBOR. As a result, the LIBOR
transition will not have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
On April 19, 2022, the Company entered into a two-year, $750.0 unsecured delayed draw term loan credit
agreement (the “2022 Term Loan”), which is scheduled to mature on April 19, 2024. The 2022 Term Loan was undrawn
at closing and may be drawn on up to five occasions over the life of the facility. The 2022 Term Loan may be repaid at
any time without premium or penalty, and, once repaid, cannot be reborrowed. When drawn upon, the proceeds fromthe 2022 Term Loan are expected to be used for general corporate purposes. Interest rates under the 2022 Term Loanare based on a spread over either the base rate or the adjusted term SOFR, which spread varies based on the Company’s
debt rating. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had not yet drawn upon the 2022 Term Loan, and as such, there
were no outstanding borrowings under the 2022 Term Loan. The 2022 Term Loan requires payment of certain
commitment fees and requires that the Company satisfy certain financial covenants, which financial covenants are thesame as those under the Revolving Credit Facility. On December 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with thefinancial covenants under the 2022 Term Loan.
The Company has a commercial paper program pursuant to which the Company may issue short-term unsecuredcommercial paper notes (the “USCP Notes”) in one or more private placements in the United States (the “U.S.
Commercial Paper Program”). The maximum aggregate principal amount outstanding of USCP Notes at any time is$2,500.0. The Company utilizes borrowings under the U.S. Commercial Paper Program for general corporate purposes,
which in recent years, have included fully or partially funding acquisitions, as well as repaying certain outstanding seniornotes, such as (i) the third quarter 2021 redemption of its unsecured 2021 Senior Notes due September 15, 2021, of
which $227.7 aggregate principal amount was then outstanding and (ii) the fourth quarter 2021 redemption of its
unsecured 2022 Senior Notes due February 1, 2022, of which $295.0 aggregate principal amount was then outstanding.
The amount of USCP Notes outstanding as of December 31, 2022 was $632.8, with a weighted average interest rate of
4.69% As of December 31, 2021, the amount of USCP Notes outstanding was $795.2, with a weighted average interest
rate of 0.29%.
The Company and one of its wholly owned European subsidiaries (the “Euro Issuer”) also have a commercial paper
program (the “Euro Commercial Paper Program” and, together with the U.S. Commercial Paper Program, the“Commercial Paper Programs”), pursuant to which the Euro Issuer may issue short-term unsecured commercial paper
notes (the “ECP Notes” and, together with the USCP Notes, the “Commercial Paper”), which are guaranteed by theCompany and are to be issued outside of the United States. The ECP Notes may be issued in Euros, Sterling, U.S.
dollars or other currencies. The maximum aggregate principal amount outstanding of ECP Notes at any time is$2,000.0. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no ECP Notes outstanding.
Amounts available under the Commercial Paper Programs may be borrowed, repaid and re-borrowed from time totime. In conjunction with the Revolving Credit Facility, as of December 31, 2022, the authorization from theCompany’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) limits the maximum principal amount outstanding of USCP Notes, ECP
Notes, and any other commercial paper or similar programs, along with outstanding amounts under the Revolving Credit
Facility, at any time to $2,500.0 in the aggregate. The Commercial Paper Programs are rated A-2 by Standard & Poor’s
and P-2 by Moody’s and, based on the Board’s authorization described above, are currently backstopped by the
Revolving Credit Facility, as amounts undrawn under the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility are available to repay
Commercial Paper, if necessary. Net proceeds of the issuances of Commercial Paper are expected to be used for general
corporate purposes. The Company reviews its optimal mix of short-term and long-term debt regularly and may replacecertain amounts of Commercial Paper, short-term debt and current maturities of long-term debt with new issuances oflong-term debt in the future.

On September 14, 2021, the Company issued the 2031 Senior Notes. The Company used the net proceeds from the2031 Senior Notes to repay certain outstanding borrowings under the U.S. Commercial Paper Program.
All of the Company’s outstanding senior notes in the United States (the “U.S. Senior Notes”) are unsecured andrank equally in right of payment with the Company’s and the Euro Issuer’s other unsecured senior indebtedness. Interest
on each series of U.S. Senior Notes is payable semiannually. The Company may, at its option, redeem some or all of
any series of U.S. Senior Notes at any time, subject to certain terms and conditions.
The Euro Issuer has two outstanding unsecured senior notes issued in Europe. In 2020, the Euro Issuer issued€500.0 (approximately $545.4 at date of issuance) principal amount of unsecured 0.750% Senior Notes due May 4, 2026
(the “2026 Euro Notes”), the net proceeds of which were used to repay amounts outstanding under the then existing
revolving credit facility. In addition, the Euro Issuer also has €500.0 (approximately $574.6 at date of issuance)
principal amount of unsecured 2.000% Senior Notes due October 8, 2028 (the “2028 Euro Notes”, together with the2026 Euro Notes, the “Euro Notes”, and collectively with the 2026 Euro Notes and the U.S. Senior Notes, the “SeniorNotes”), the net proceeds of which were used to repay a portion of the outstanding amounts under our Commercial Paper
Programs, with the remainder of the net proceeds being used for general corporate purposes. The Euro Notes are
unsecured and rank equally in right of payment with the Company’s and the Euro Issuer’s other unsecured seniorindebtedness, and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Company. Interest on
each series of Euro Notes is payable annually. The Company may, at its option, redeem some or all of either series ofEuro Notes at any time, subject to certain terms and conditions.
The Company’s Senior Notes impose certain obligations on the Company and prohibit various actions by theCompany unless it satisfies certain financial requirements. On December 31, 2022, the Company was in compliancewith all requirements under its Senior Notes. Refer to Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements forfurther information related to the Company’s debt.
On April 27, 2021, the Board authorized a stock repurchase program under which the Company may purchase up to$2,000.0 of the Company’s Common Stock during the three-year period ending April 27, 2024 (the “2021 Stock
Repurchase Program”) in accordance with the requirements of Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the “Exchange Act”). During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company repurchased 9.9
million and 6.2 million shares of its Common Stock for $730.5 and $457.9, respectively, under the 2021 Stock
Repurchase Program. Of the total repurchases made in 2022 under the 2021 Stock Repurchase Program, 9.3 million
shares, or $689.7, have been retired by the Company, with the remainder of the repurchased shares being retained in
Treasury stock at the time of repurchase. Of the total repurchases made in 2021 under the 2021 Stock Repurchase
Program, 5.8 million shares, or $424.9, were retired by the Company, with the remainder of the repurchased shares being
retained in Treasury stock at the time of repurchase. From January 1, 2023 through January 31, 2023, the Company
repurchased 0.6 million additional shares of its Common Stock for $48.8, and, as of February 1, 2023, the Company hasremaining authorization to purchase up to $762.8 of its Common Stock under the 2021 Stock Repurchase Program. The
price and timing of any future purchases will depend on a number of factors, such as levels of cash generation fromoperations, the volume of stock options exercised by employees, cash requirements for acquisitions, dividends paid,
economic and market conditions and the price of the Common Stock.
In April 2018, the Board authorized a stock repurchase program under which the Company could purchase up to$2,000.0 of Common Stock during the three-year period ending April 24, 2021 (the “2018 Stock Repurchase Program”)
in accordance with the requirements of Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act. During the year ended December 31, 2021,
the Company repurchased 3.1 million shares of its Common Stock for $203.8 under the 2018 Stock Repurchase41

Program. As a result of these purchases, the Company completed all purchases authorized under the 2018 Stock
Repurchase Program, and, therefore, the 2018 Stock Repurchase Program was terminated. Of the total repurchases
made in 2021 under the 2018 Stock Repurchase Program, 2.8 million shares, or $184.0, were retired by the Company,
with the remainder of the repurchased shares being retained in Treasury stock at the time of repurchase. During the year
ended December 31, 2020, the Company repurchased 12.0 million shares of its Common Stock for $641.3 under the2018 Stock Repurchase Program. Of the total repurchases made in 2020, 9.3 million shares, or $487.4, were retired by
the Company, with the remainder of the repurchased shares being retained in Treasury stock at the time of repurchase.
Contingent upon declaration by the Board, the Company pays a quarterly dividend on shares of its Common Stock.
On October 26, 2021, the Board approved an increase to the Company’s quarterly dividend rate from $0.145 per share to$0.20 per share, effective with dividends declared in the fourth quarter of 2021, and on October 25, 2022, approved an
additional increase to the Company’s quarterly dividend rate from $0.20 per share to $0.21 per share, effective withdividends declared in the fourth quarter of 2022, contingent upon declaration by the Board.

Pensions
The Company and certain of its subsidiaries in the United States have defined benefit pension plans (“U.S. Plans”),
which cover certain U.S. employees and which represent the majority of the plan assets and benefit obligations of theaggregate defined benefit plans of the Company. The U.S. Plans’ benefits are generally based on years of service andcompensation and are generally noncontributory. The majority of U.S. employees are not covered by the U.S. Plans andare instead covered by various defined contribution plans. Certain foreign subsidiaries also have defined benefit planscovering their employees (the “Foreign Plans” and, together with the U.S. Plans, the “Plans”). The total liability for
accrued pension and postretirement benefit obligations associated with the Company’s underfunded pension andpostretirement benefit plans decreased in 2022 to $111.1 from $173.9 in 2021, primarily driven by a significant decreasein our projected benefit obligations resulting from higher interest rates, along with foreign currency exchange translation,
partially offset by negative returns on plan assets in 2022. There is no current requirement for cash contributions to anyof the U.S. Plans, and the Company plans to evaluate annually, based on actuarial calculations and the investment
performance of the Plans’ assets, the timing and amount of cash contributions in the future, if any.
Refer to Note 9 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of the Company’s benefit
plans and other postretirement benefit plans.
Acquisitions and Divestitures
During 2022, the Company completed two acquisitions (the “2022 Acquisitions”) for $288.2, net of cash acquired.
One of the 2022 Acquisitions was included in the Harsh Environment Solutions segment and the other acquisition was
included in the Interconnect and Sensor Systems segment. The 2022 Acquisitions, which were funded through a
combination of borrowings under the U.S. Commercial Paper Program and cash on hand, were not material, either
individually or in the aggregate, to the Company’s financial results.

42

During 2021, the Company completed seven acquisitions (the “2021 Acquisitions”) for $2,225.4, net of cash
acquired, while also completing the divestiture of the Divested MTS business, as defined and discussed below. One of
the 2021 Acquisitions was included in the Harsh Environment Solutions segment, three acquisitions were included in theCommunications Solutions segment and three acquisitions were included in the Interconnect and Sensor Systems
segment. The 2021 Acquisitions were not material, either individually or in the aggregate, to the Company’s financial
results.
Acquisition of MTS
On April 7, 2021, pursuant to a definitive agreement dated December 9, 2020, by and among the Company and
MTS Systems Corporation (“MTS”), the Company completed the acquisition of MTS for a total enterprise value ofapproximately $1,700, net of cash acquired and including the repayment of all outstanding debt and certain liabilities.
The MTS acquisition was funded through a combination of borrowings under the U.S. Commercial Paper Program andcash on hand. At closing, the Company paid approximately $1,300, net of cash acquired, for 100% of the common stockof MTS, including certain liabilities settled at closing, which was reflected within Net cash used in investing activities
from continuing operations in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow for the year ended
December 31, 2021. In addition, the Company also assumed MTS’s then-outstanding $350.0 principal amount of seniornotes due August 15, 2027. Shortly after the closing, the Company repaid and settled the MTS senior notes forapproximately $387.3, which included accrued interest and a make-whole premium incurred as a result of the early
extinguishment of the senior notes. The repayment of the outstanding senior notes, including the make-whole premium
and excluding interest, was reflected within Net cash used in financing activities from continuing operations in theaccompanying Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow for the year ended December 31, 2021. MTS, a leading global
supplier of precision sensors, advanced test systems and motion simulators, was historically organized into two businesssegments: Sensors (“MTS Sensors”) and Test & Simulation (“MTS T&S”). The retained MTS Sensors businessprovides the Company with a highly complementary offering of high-technology, harsh environment sensors sold into
diverse end markets and applications. The MTS Sensors business further expands the Company’s range of sensor andsensor-based products across a wide array of industries and is reported as part of our continuing operations and within
our Interconnect and Sensor Systems segment. In the second quarter of 2021, the Company incurred $55.4 ($44.6 aftertax, or $0.07 per diluted share) of acquisition-related expenses, comprised primarily of transaction, severance,
restructuring and certain non-cash purchase accounting costs related to the MTS acquisition.
Sale of the Divested MTS Business
On January 19, 2021 and prior to the closing of the MTS acquisition, the Company entered into a definitive
agreement to sell MTS (including the MTS T&S business, but excluding the MTS Sensors business) to Illinois Tool
Works Inc. (“ITW”). Throughout this Annual Report, we refer to MTS (including the MTS T&S business, but
excluding the MTS Sensors business) as the “Divested MTS business”. As a result of the agreement to sell the Divested
MTS business to ITW, the Divested MTS business met the discontinued operations reporting criteria and “held for sale”
accounting criteria as of the MTS acquisition date of April 7, 2021, and therefore, the Company did not assign the
Divested MTS business to any of its reportable business segments. Accordingly, the Company accounted for theoperating results and related cash flows associated with the Divested MTS business as discontinued operations in theaccompanying Consolidated Financial Statements through December 1, 2021, the date of the sale of the Divested MTS
business to ITW. Income from discontinued operations attributable to Amphenol Corporation, net of income taxes, was$21.4 for the year ended December 31, 2021. On December 1, 2021, the Company completed the sale of the Divested
MTS business for approximately $750, net of cash divested and excluding related transaction fees and expenses. The
proceeds from the sale of the Divested MTS business were included in Net cash provided by investing activities fromdiscontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow for the year ended December 31, 2021. Amphenol
has had no continuing involvement with the Divested MTS business after the completion of the sale. After giving effectto the sale of the Divested MTS business as well as the repayment of the aforementioned MTS senior notes as part of the
MTS acquisition, the Company paid approximately $950, net of cash acquired and excluding related transaction fees andexpenses, for the retained MTS Sensors business. Refer to Note 11 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
for further details related to the completed divestiture of the Divested MTS business.

43Acquisition of Halo Technology Limited
On December 1, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of approximately 97% of the common stock of Halo
Technology Limited (“Halo”) for a purchase price of approximately $694, net of cash acquired. The sellers retained anoncontrolling interest of less than 3% in Halo, which includes redeemable features that are outside the control of theCompany and therefore, has been classified as temporary equity on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31,
2022 and 2021, as discussed in more detail in Notes 1 and 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The
acquisition was funded with cash on hand. Halo, which is headquartered in the United States (California), is a leading
provider of active and passive fiber optic interconnect components, with product offerings that are highly
complementary to our existing high-speed and fiber optic interconnect solutions for the communications infrastructure
markets. The operating results for Halo have been included in the Consolidated Statements of Income since theacquisition date. Halo is reported within our Communications Solutions segment.
Acquisition-related Expenses
In 2022, the Company incurred $21.5 ($18.4 after-tax) of acquisition-related expenses, comprised primarily of theamortization related to the value associated with acquired backlog resulting from two acquisitions that closed in 2022,
along with external transaction costs. In 2021, the Company incurred $70.4 ($57.3 after-tax) of acquisition-related
expenses, comprised primarily of transaction, severance, restructuring and certain non-cash purchase accounting costs
related to the MTS acquisition in the second quarter of 2021, along with external transaction costs and certain non-cash
purchase accounting costs related to the Halo acquisition in the fourth quarter of 2021. Such acquisition-related
expenses are presented separately in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income.
For further discussion of the Company’s acquisitions, as well as the Company’s discontinued operations andcompleted divestiture of the Divested MTS business, refer to Note 11 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Environmental Matters
Certain operations of the Company are subject to environmental laws and regulations that govern the discharge ofpollutants into the air and water, as well as the handling and disposal of solid and hazardous wastes. The Company
believes that its operations are currently in substantial compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations
and that the costs of continuing compliance will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition,
results of operations or cash flows. For more information on certain environmental matters, refer to Note 14 of theNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Inflation and Costs
The cost of the Company’s products is influenced by the cost of a wide variety of raw materials. The Company
strives to offset the impact of increases in the cost of raw materials, labor and services through price increases,
productivity improvements and cost saving programs. However, in certain markets, implementing price increases can bedifficult and there is no guarantee that the Company will be successful. From time to time, the Company may encounter
difficulties in obtaining certain raw materials or components necessary for production due to supply chain constraints
and logistical challenges, which may include regulatory restrictions and also negatively impact the pricing of materials
and components sourced or used by the Company. While the Company does not currently anticipate significant, broadbased difficulties in obtaining raw materials or components necessary for production, in 2021 and 2022, there were
supply chain and logistical challenges that impacted the global economy, including our Company, and caused andcontinue to cause supply constraints and commodity price increases on certain raw materials and components used by
the Company in production, as well as decreased availability of, and increased prices for, freight and logistics, including
air, sea and ground freight. As of December 31, 2022, while some of the supply chain and logistical challenges haveeased, inflation continues to impact the cost of certain raw materials and components used by the Company. Given thisenvironment, the Company may experience supply shortages for discrete raw materials or components in the future,
which could be further exacerbated by increased commodity prices and additional inflation. For a discussion of certain
risks related to inflation and costs, refer to the risk factor titled “The Company and certain of its suppliers and customers
have experienced difficulties obtaining certain raw materials and components, and the cost of most of the Company’s
raw materials and components is increasing” in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors herein.

44Foreign Currency Exchange Rates
The Company conducts business in many foreign currencies through its worldwide operations, and as a result issubject to foreign exchange exposure due to changes in exchange rates of the various currencies, including possible
currency devaluations. Changes in exchange rates can positively or negatively affect the Company’s sales, operating
margins and equity. The Company attempts to mitigate currency risk in a number of ways, such as locating factories inthe same country or region in which products are sold, hedging contracts, cost reduction and pricing actions or working
capital management. However, there can be no assurance that any or all such actions taken by the Company will be fully
effective in successfully managing currency risk, including in the event of a significant and sudden decline in the valueof any of the foreign currencies of the Company’s worldwide operations. For further discussion of foreign exchange
exposures, risks and uncertainties, refer to the risk factor titled “The Company’s results can be positively or negatively
affected by changes in foreign currency exchange rates” in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors herein.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to assessing the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and cash flows inaccordance with U.S. GAAP, management utilizes certain non-GAAP financial measures, defined below, as part of its
internal reviews for purposes of monitoring, evaluating and forecasting the Company’s financial performance,
communicating operating results to the Board and assessing related employee compensation measures. Management
believes that these non-GAAP financial measures may be helpful to investors in assessing the Company’s overall
financial performance, trends and year-over-year comparative results, in addition to the reasons noted below. NonGAAP financial measures related to operating income, operating margin, net income from continuing operations
attributable to Amphenol Corporation, effective tax rate and diluted EPS from continuing operations exclude income andexpenses that are not directly related to the Company’s operating performance during the years presented. Items
excluded in the presentation of such non-GAAP financial measures in any period may consist of, without limitation,acquisition-related expenses, refinancing-related costs, and certain discrete tax items including but not limited to (i) theexcess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation and (ii) the impact of significant changes in tax law. NonGAAP financial measures related to net sales exclude the impact of foreign currency exchange rates andacquisitions. Non-GAAP financial measures and their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measurespresented within this Item 7 are on a continuing operations basis only and exclude any results associated withdiscontinued operations. The non-GAAP financial information contained herein is included for supplemental purposes
only and should not be considered in isolation, as a substitute for or superior to the related U.S. GAAP financial
measures. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are not necessarily the same or comparable to similar
measures presented by other companies as such measures may be calculated differently or may exclude different items.
The non-GAAP financial measures defined below should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial
statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to themost directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 are
included in “Results of Operations” and “Liquidity and Capital Resources” within this Item 7:• Adjusted Diluted EPS is defined as diluted earnings per share from continuing operations (as reported inaccordance with U.S. GAAP), excluding income and expenses and their specific tax effects that are not directly
related to the Company’s operating performance during the years presented. Adjusted Diluted EPS is calculated
as Adjusted Net Income from continuing operations attributable to Amphenol Corporation, as defined below,
divided by the weighted average outstanding diluted shares as reported in the Consolidated Statements ofIncome.
• Adjusted Effective Tax Rate is defined as Provision for income taxes, as reported in the Consolidated Statementsof Income, expressed as a percentage of Income from continuing operations before income taxes, as reported in
the Consolidated Statements of Income, each excluding income and expenses and their specific tax effects thatare not directly related to the Company’s operating performance during the years presented.
• Adjusted Net Income from continuing operations attributable to Amphenol Corporation is defined as Net income
from continuing operations attributable to Amphenol Corporation, as reported in the Consolidated Statements ofIncome, excluding income and expenses and their specific tax effects that are not directly related to theCompany’s operating performance during the years presented.

45• Adjusted Operating Income is defined as Operating income, as reported in the Consolidated Statements ofIncome, excluding income and expenses that are not directly related to the Company’s operating performance
during the years presented.
• Adjusted Operating Margin is defined as Adjusted Operating Income (as defined above) expressed as apercentage of Net sales (as reported in the Consolidated Statements of Income).
• Constant Currency Net Sales Growth is defined as the year-over-year percentage change in net sales growth,
excluding the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company’s results are subject tovolatility related to foreign currency translation fluctuations. As such, management evaluates the Company’ssales performance based on actual sales growth in U.S. dollars, as well as Organic Net Sales Growth (defined
below) and Constant Currency Net Sales Growth, and believes that such information is useful to investors toassess the underlying sales trends.
• Free Cash Flow is defined as (i) Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations(“Operating Cash Flow” - as reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP) less (ii) capital expenditures (as reported
in accordance with U.S. GAAP), net of proceeds from disposals of property, plant and equipment (as reported inaccordance with U.S. GAAP), all of which are derived from the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow. Free
Cash Flow is an important liquidity measure for the Company, as we believe it is useful for management andinvestors to assess our ability to generate cash, as well as to assess how much cash can be used to reinvest in thegrowth of the Company or to return to stockholders through either stock repurchases or dividends.
• Organic Net Sales Growth is defined as the year-over-year percentage change in net sales growth resulting fromoperating volume and pricing changes, and excludes the impact of (i) changes in foreign currency exchange rates(described above), which is outside the control of the Company, and (ii) acquisitions, both of which are taken asa percentage of the respective prior year period(s) net sales. The acquisition impact represents the percentage
impact on net sales resulting from acquisitions that have not been included in the Company’s consolidated results
for the full current year period(s) and/or prior comparable year period(s) presented. Such net sales related tothese acquisitions do not reflect the underlying growth of the Company on a comparative basis. Management
evaluates the Company’s sales performance based on actual sales growth in U.S. dollars, as well as ConstantCurrency Net Sales Growth (defined above) and Organic Net Sales Growth, and believes that such information isuseful to investors to assess the underlying sales trends.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of recently issued accounting
pronouncements, including those adopted by the Company.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amountsof assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases its
estimates on historical experience along with other assumptions that we believe are reasonable in formulating our bases
for making judgements regarding the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent elsewhere.
Estimates are adjusted as new information becomes available. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The
Company believes that the following accounting policies and estimates are most critical since they require significant
assumptions and judgments that inherently are subject to risks and uncertainties. The significant accounting policies are
more fully described in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s net sales in the Consolidated Statements of Income for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021
and 2020 are presented under Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with
Customers (Topic 606) (collectively with its related subsequent amendments, “Topic 606”). The Company’s primarysource of revenues consist of product sales to either end customers and their appointed contract manufacturers (including
original equipment manufacturers) or to distributors. Our revenues are derived from contracts with customers, which inmost cases are customer purchase orders that may be governed by master sales agreements. For each contract, thepromise to transfer the control of the products, each of which is individually distinct, is considered to be the identified

46

performance obligation. As part of the consideration promised in each contract, the Company evaluates the customer’s
credit risk. Our contracts do not have any significant financing components, as payment terms are generally due net 30
to 120 days after delivery. Although products are almost always sold at fixed prices, in determining the transaction
price, we evaluate whether the price is subject to refund (due to returns) or adjustment (due to volume discounts, rebates,or price concessions) to determine the net consideration we expect to be entitled to. We allocate the transaction price toeach distinct product based on its relative standalone selling price. Taxes assessed by governmental authorities andcollected from the customer, including but not limited to sales and use taxes and value-added taxes, are not included in
the transaction price.
The vast majority of our sales are recognized at a point-in-time under the core principle of recognizing revenue
when control transfers to the customer, which generally occurs when we ship or deliver the product from ourmanufacturing facility to our customers, when our customer accepts and has legal title of the goods, and where theCompany has a present right to payment for such goods. Based on the respective contract terms, most of our contracts’revenues are recognized either (i) upon shipment based on free on board (“FOB”) shipping point or (ii) when the productarrives at its destination. For the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, less than 5% of our net sales wererecognized over time, where the associated contracts relate to the sale of goods with no alternative use as they are only
sold to a single customer and whose underlying contract terms provide the Company with an enforceable right topayment, including a reasonable profit margin, for performance completed to date, in the event of customer termination.
For the contracts recognized over time, we typically record revenue using the input method, based on the materials andlabor costs incurred to date relative to the contract’s total estimated costs. This method reasonably depicts when and as
control of the goods transfers to the customer, since it measures our progress in producing the goods which is generallycommensurate with this transfer of control. Since we typically invoice our customers at the same time that we satisfy
our performance obligations, contract assets and contract liabilities related to our contracts with customers recorded in
the Consolidated Balance Sheets were not material as of December 31, 2022 and 2021.
Standard product warranty coverage, which provides assurance that our products will conform to the contractuallyagreed-upon specifications for a limited period from the date of shipment, is typically offered, while extended or
separately priced warranty coverage is typically not offered. The warranty claim is generally limited to a credit equal tothe purchase price or a promise to repair or replace the product for a specified period of time at no additional charge.
We estimate our warranty liability based on historical experience, product history, and current trends.
Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes are provided for revenue and expenses which are recognized in different periods for income
tax and financial statement reporting purposes. The Company recognizes the effects of changes in tax laws and rates ondeferred income taxes in the period in which legislation is enacted. Deferred income taxes are provided on undistributed
earnings of foreign subsidiaries in the period in which the Company determines it no longer intends to permanently
reinvest such earnings outside the United States. As of December 31, 2022, the Company has not provided for deferredincome taxes on undistributed foreign earnings of approximately $1,100 related to certain geographies, as it is theCompany’s intention to permanently reinvest such earnings outside the United States. It is impracticable to calculate theamount of taxes that would be payable if these undistributed foreign earnings were to be repatriated. In addition, theCompany remains indefinitely reinvested with respect to its financial statement basis in excess of tax basis of its
investments in foreign subsidiaries. It is not practicable to determine the deferred tax liability with respect to such basis
differences. Deferred tax assets are regularly assessed for recoverability based on both historical and anticipatedearnings levels and a valuation allowance is recorded when it is more likely than not that these amounts will not berecovered.
The tax effects of an uncertain tax position taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns are recognized only
if it is “more likely than not” to be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on its technical merits as of
the reporting date. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on
the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The
Company includes estimated interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes.
As a result of the Tax Act, the global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) provision imposed a tax on certain
earnings of foreign subsidiaries. The Company elected an accounting policy to account for GILTI as a period cost. The
U.S. Treasury Department has issued final interpretive guidance relating to certain provisions of the Tax Act andproposed additional guidance related to the same provisions. The Company will account for the impact of additional
guidance in the period in which any new guidance is released, if appropriate.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
(amounts in millions)

The Company, in the normal course of doing business, is exposed to a variety of risks, including market risks
associated with foreign currency exchange rates and changes in interest rates. The Company does not have any
significant concentration with any one counterparty.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
The Company conducts business in many foreign currencies through its worldwide operations, and as a result issubject to foreign exchange exposure due to changes in exchange rates of the various currencies. Changes in exchange
rates can positively or negatively affect the Company’s sales, operating margins and equity. The Company attempts tomitigate currency risk in a number of ways, such as locating factories in the same country or region in which products
are sold, hedging contracts, cost reduction and pricing actions or working capital management. However, there can be
no assurance that any or all such actions taken by the Company will be fully effective in successfully managing currency
risk, including in the event of a significant and sudden decline in the value of any of the foreign currencies of theCompany’s worldwide operations.
One of the Company’s wholly owned European subsidiaries (the “Euro Issuer”) has two outstanding unsecured
senior notes issued in Europe (collectively, the “Euro Notes”), each of which were issued with a principal amount of€500.0. The 0.750% Euro Senior Notes, which were issued in May 2020, mature on May 4, 2026, while the 2.000%
Euro Senior Notes, which were issued in October 2018, mature on October 8, 2028. The Company and the Euro Issuer
also have a commercial paper program (the “Euro Commercial Paper Program” and, together with the U.S. Commercial
Paper Program, the “Commercial Paper Programs”), pursuant to which the Euro Issuer may issue, outside of the UnitedStates, short-term unsecured commercial paper notes. While the Euro Notes are denominated in Euros, the Company
may borrow, from time to time, under the Revolving Credit Facility and Euro Commercial Paper Program, and suchborrowings have been and may continue to be denominated in various foreign currencies, including the Euro. Whenborrowing in foreign currencies, there can be no assurance that the Company can successfully manage changes inexchange rates, including in the event of a significant and sudden decline in the value of any of the foreign currencies inwhich such borrowings are made. Refer to Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion ofdebt.
The Company also utilizes foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations
for exposures associated with (i) certain transactions denominated in foreign currencies and (ii) net investments incertain foreign subsidiaries from which we expect to repatriate earnings to the United States. As of December 31, 2022,
the fair value of such foreign exchange forward contracts was not material. A 10% change in foreign currency exchange
rates would not have a material effect on the value of the hedges as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. The Company does
not engage in purchasing forward contracts for trading or speculative purposes, and our derivative financial instruments
are with large financial institutions with strong credit ratings. As of December 31, 2022, the Company does not haveany significant concentration of exposure with any one counterparty. Refer to Note 1 and Note 5 of the Notes toConsolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of derivative financial instruments.
Interest Rate Risk
The Company is subject to market risk from exposure to changes in interest rates based on the Company’s financing
activities. The Company manages its exposure to interest rate risk through a mix of fixed and variable rate debt. The
Company currently has various fixed rate senior notes outstanding, in both the United States and Europe, with various
maturity dates, the most recent of which was issued in 2021. In September 2021, the Company issued $750.0 principal
amount of unsecured 2.200% Senior Notes due September 15, 2031, the net proceeds of which were used to repay
certain outstanding borrowings under the U.S. Commercial Paper Program.
Any borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at rates that fluctuate with a spread that varies,
based on the Company’s debt rating, over certain currency-specific benchmark rates, which benchmark rates in the caseof U.S. dollar borrowings are either the base rate or the adjusted term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”).
Similarly, any borrowings under the two-year, $750.0 unsecured delayed draw term loan credit agreement (the “202248

Term Loan”) entered into by the Company in April of 2022, bear interest at rates that fluctuate with a spread that varies,
based on the Company’s debt rating, over either the base rate or the adjusted term SOFR. Any borrowings under theCommercial Paper Programs are subject to floating interest rates. Therefore, when the Company borrows under thesedebt instruments, the Company is exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates. As of December 31, 2022,
approximately $640, or 14%, of the Company’s outstanding borrowings, primarily under the U.S. Commercial Paper
Program, were subject to floating interest rates; the Company’s weighted average floating rate on borrowings under the
U.S. Commercial Paper Program as of December 31, 2022 was 4.69%. As of December 31, 2021, approximately $804,
or 17%, of the Company’s outstanding borrowings, primarily under the U.S. Commercial Paper Program, were subject tofloating interest rates; the Company’s weighted average floating rate on borrowings under the U.S. Commercial Paper
Program as of December 31, 2021 was 0.29%. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no outstanding
borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, 2022 Term Loan, and Euro Commercial Paper Program. As a result ofrecent increases in the federal funds rate by the U.S. Federal Reserve, the floating interest rates related to our U.S.
Commercial Paper Program increased substantially over the course of 2022, a trend that could continue throughout 2023.
Consequently, the Company currently expects the floating interest rates related to its U.S. Commercial Paper Program(as well as its Revolving Credit Facility and 2022 Term Loan, to the extent either are drawn upon in the future) tocontinue to increase in the first quarter of 2023 and potentially beyond, which is expected to result in increased interest
expense in 2023 as compared to 2022. A 10% change in the interest rate at December 31, 2022 and 2021 under our
Revolving Credit Facility, 2022 Term Loan or Commercial Paper Programs would not have a material effect on interest
expense. Although the Company does not expect changes in interest rates to have a material effect on income or cash
flows in 2023, primarily due to our current expected limited reliance on borrowings tied to floating rates of interest, there
can be no assurance that interest rates will not change significantly from current levels.

Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the stockholders and the Board of Directors of Amphenol Corporation
Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Amphenol Corporation and subsidiaries (the “Company”)
as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity,and cash flow, for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022, and the related notes and the schedule listed
in the Index at Item 15 (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). We also have audited the Company’s internal
control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated
Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of theCompany as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ofAmerica (generally accepted accounting principles). Also, in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects,
effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control —Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.
Basis for Opinions
The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control overfinancial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in theaccompanying Management Report on Internal Control. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements and an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public
accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required
to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules andregulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and performthe audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due
to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audits of the financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of thefinancial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures to respond to those risks. Such procedures
included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also
included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating theoverall presentation of the financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an
understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing andevaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included
performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinions.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding thereliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and proceduresthat (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions anddispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary topermit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts andexpenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of thecompany; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or
disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also,
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements thatwas communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures thatare material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The
communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, andwe are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on theaccounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Income Taxes — Unrecognized Tax Benefits — Refer to Notes 1 and 6 to the financial statements
Critical Audit Matter Description
The Company operates in the U.S. and numerous foreign taxable jurisdictions, and at any point in time has numerous audits
underway at various stages of completion. The Company evaluates its tax positions and establishes liabilities for uncertain tax
positions that may be challenged by tax authorities and may not be fully sustained, despite the Company’s belief that theunderlying tax positions are fully supportable. The tax effects of an uncertain tax position taken or expected to be taken inincome tax returns are recognized only if it is “more likely than not” to be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities,
based on its technical merits as of the reporting date. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a
position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized uponultimate settlement.
Management judgment is required to identify and evaluate each uncertain tax position to determine whether the more likely
than not recognition thresholds have been met. Further, the evaluation of each uncertain tax position requires management toapply specialized skill and knowledge related to the identified position. The Company has unrecognized tax benefits of $199.9
million, including penalties and interest, as of December 31, 2022.
We identified the liabilities for uncertain tax positions as a critical audit matter because of the complexity created by themultiple jurisdictions in which the Company files its tax returns, each of which has differing and complex tax laws andregulations. This required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort, including the need to involve ourincome tax specialists, when performing audit procedures to evaluate management’s identification of uncertain tax positions,the estimates of the amounts to be realized and whether it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained.

How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to uncertain tax positions included the following, among others:• We tested the effectiveness of controls over the uncertain tax positions for income taxes, including management’s
controls over the identification and recording of uncertain tax positions as well as the determination of whether it ismore likely than not that the tax position will be sustained.
• With the assistance of our income tax specialists, we evaluated management’s significant judgements regarding
uncertain tax positions including:
Assessing the reasonableness of the methods and assumptions used by management to identify uncertain tax
positions including but not limited to:Evaluating former and ongoing tax audits by tax authorities

Evaluating transactions for which third-party tax advice or tax opinions were received

Determining if there’s any additional information available to us that was not identified andconsidered in management’s assessment.
Assessing the technical merits of a sample of positions identified and the reasonableness of the methodology
used to determine the uncertain tax liability.
Evaluating management’s conclusion with respect to whether uncertain tax positions accounted for in priorperiods have been effectively settled and/or whether the statute of limitations has expired and, if so, whether
the resolution of the tax position has been appropriately accounted for in the financial statements.
Evaluating tax positions that have not yet settled or are within statute to determine whether any new
information regarding the sustainability of these tax positions or measurement of tax benefit is present suchthat a previously unrecognized uncertain tax position is recognized.

AMPHENOL CORPORATION
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements(All amounts included in the following Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in millions, except
share and per share data, unless otherwise noted)
Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Business
Amphenol Corporation (together with its subsidiaries, “Amphenol,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) is one of
the world’s largest designers, manufacturers and marketers of electrical, electronic and fiber optic connectors andinterconnect systems, antennas, sensors and sensor-based products and coaxial and high-speed specialty cable. The
Company sells its products to customers worldwide.
Effective January 1, 2022, the Company aligned its businesses into the following three newly formed reportablebusiness segments:• Harsh Environment Solutions – the Harsh Environment Solutions segment designs, manufactures andmarkets a broad range of ruggedized interconnect products, including connectors and interconnect systems,
printed circuits and printed circuit assemblies and other products for use in the industrial, military,commercial aerospace, automotive, mobile networks and information technology and data communications
end markets.
• Communications Solutions – the Communications Solutions segment designs, manufactures and markets a
broad range of connector and interconnect systems, including high speed, radio frequency, power, fiber
optic and other products, together with antennas, for use in the information technology and data
communications, mobile devices, industrial, mobile networks, broadband communications, automotive,commercial aerospace and military end markets.
• Interconnect and Sensor Systems – the Interconnect and Sensor Systems segment designs, manufactures andmarkets a broad range of sensors, sensor-based systems, connectors and value-add interconnect systems
used in the automotive, industrial, information technology and data communications, mobile networks,
military and commercial aerospace end markets.
This new alignment replaced our historic reportable business segments. The Company began reporting under its
new reportable segments in connection with its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31,
2022 and for each quarterly period thereafter. Throughout this Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Annual Report”), theCompany is reporting under the new reportable segments structure, which includes the recasting of relevant segment
information for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, in order to enable year-over-year segment comparisons.
Refer to Note 13 herein for further details related to the Company’s change in its reportable business segments effective
January 1, 2022.
Prior to 2022 and through December 31, 2021, the Company operated through two reportable business segments:• Interconnect Products and Assemblies – The Interconnect Products and Assemblies segment primarily
designed, manufactured and marketed a broad range of connector and connector systems, value-add
products and other products, including antennas and sensors, used in a wide range of applications in adiverse set of end markets.
• Cable Products and Solutions – The Cable Products and Solutions segment primarily designed,
manufactured and marketed cable, value-add products and components for use primarily in the broadband
communications and information technology markets, as well as certain applications in other markets.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP” or “GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the57

consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The
Company’s management evaluates these significant estimates and assumptions that affect the consolidated financial
statements and related disclosures. Estimates used in calculating certain accounts, including but not limited to, theallowance for doubtful accounts, provisions for slow-moving or obsolete inventory, revenue recognition, income taxes
and related valuation allowances, goodwill and intangible assets from acquisitions, and pensions, are developed based on
historical experience or other assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable. Actual results could differ fromthose estimates.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements are prepared in U.S. dollars and include the accounts of the Company and its
wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany account balances and transactions have been eliminatedin consolidation. The results of companies acquired are included in the Consolidated Financial Statements from theeffective date of acquisition. Similarly, the results of companies divested are included in the Consolidated Financial
Statements during the period of Amphenol’s ownership through the date of the divestiture.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.
The carrying amounts approximate fair values of those instruments, the vast majority of which are in non-U.S. bankaccounts.
Short-term and Long-term Investments
Short-term investments consist primarily of certificates of deposit with original or remaining maturities of twelve
months or less. Long-term investments consist primarily of certificates of deposit with original and remaining maturities
of more than twelve months. The carrying amounts of these short-term and long-term investments approximate theirrespective fair values, the vast majority of which are in non-U.S. bank accounts. Short-term investments are presented
separately as its own line item on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Long-term investments are recorded in Other longterm assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable is stated at net realizable value. The Company regularly reviews accounts receivable balances
and adjusts the receivable reserves as necessary whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying value may not
be recoverable. The Company assesses and records an allowance for expected credit losses on accounts receivable.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The principal components of cost included ininventories are materials, direct labor and manufacturing overhead. The Company regularly reviews inventory quantities
on hand, evaluates the realizability of inventories and adjusts the carrying value as necessary based on forecasted
product demand. Provisions for slow-moving and obsolete inventory are made based on historical experience andproduct demand.
Depreciable Assets
Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recorded on astraight-line basis over the respective asset lives determined on a composite basis by asset group or on a specific item
basis using the estimated useful lives of such assets, which generally range from 3 to 12 years for machinery andequipment and office equipment and 20 to 40 years for buildings. Leasehold building improvements are amortized overthe shorter of the remaining lease term or estimated useful life of such improvements. The Company periodicallyreviews fixed asset lives. Depreciation expense is included in both Cost of sales and Selling, general and administrative
expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income, dependent upon the specific categorization and use of theunderlying asset being depreciated. The Company assesses the impairment of property, plant and equipment subject todepreciation, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors
the Company considers important, which could trigger an impairment review, include significant changes in the mannerof the use of the asset, significant changes in historical trends in operating performance, significant changes in projected
operating performance, and significant negative economic trends. There have been no impairments recorded in 2022,
2021 or 2020 as a result of such reviews.

Leases
Amphenol is a lessee of buildings, office space, automobiles and equipment throughout the world, nearly all ofwhich are classified as operating leases expiring at various dates. The Company determines if an arrangement qualifies
as a lease at lease inception. Lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities for existing operating leases arerecognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Operating lease liabilities are recorded based on the present value of the
future lease payments over the lease term, assessed as of the commencement date. The Company’s real estate leases,
which are comprised primarily of manufacturing facilities, warehouses and sales offices, represent the vast majority of
our operating lease liabilities and generally have a lease term between 2 and 12 years. The remaining leases consist
primarily of machinery and equipment used in production, office equipment and vehicles, each with various lease terms.
The vast majority of our leases are comprised of fixed lease payments, with a small percentage of the Company’s realestate leases including lease payments tied to a rate or index which may be subject to variability. Certain real estateleases also include executory costs such as common area maintenance (non-lease component), as well as property
insurance and property taxes (non-components). We account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease
component for our real estate leases. Lease payments, which may include lease components, non-lease components andnon-components, are included in the measurement of the Company’s lease liabilities to the extent that such payments areeither fixed amounts or variable amounts based on a rate or index (fixed in substance) as stipulated in the lease contract.
Any actual costs in excess of such amounts are expensed as incurred as variable lease cost.
Substantially all of our lease agreements do not specify an implicit borrowing rate, and as such, the Company
utilizes its incremental borrowing rate by lease term, in order to calculate the present value of our future lease payments.
The discount rate represents a risk-adjusted rate on a secured basis, and is the rate at which the Company would borrowfunds to satisfy the scheduled lease liability payment streams commensurate with the lease term. For new or renewedleases, the discount rate is determined using available data at lease commencement and based on the lease term including
any reasonably certain renewal periods.
Some of our lease agreements, primarily related to real estate, include options for the Company to either renew(extend) or early terminate the lease. Leases with renewal options allow the Company to extend the lease term typicallybetween 1 and 6 years. Renewal options are reviewed at lease commencement to determine if such options arereasonably certain of being exercised, which could impact the lease term. When determining if a renewal option isreasonably certain of being exercised, the Company considers several factors, including but not limited to, thesignificance of leasehold improvements incurred on the property, whether the asset is difficult to replace, or specificcharacteristics unique to the particular lease that would make it reasonably certain that we would exercise such option.
In most cases and unless there is an economic, financial or business reason to do so, the Company has concluded that
renewal and early termination options are not reasonably certain of being exercised by the Company (and thus notincluded in our ROU asset and lease liability).
Refer to Note 10 herein for further information related to our lease portfolio.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess purchase cost over the fair value of net assets acquired in business combinations. As
a result of the aforementioned new reporting segment structure that went in effect on January 1, 2022, the Company
utilized the relative fair value allocation approach to reallocate the historical goodwill associated with the previous
Interconnect Products and Assemblies segment, while the historical goodwill associated with the previous Cable
Products and Solutions segment has been allocated in full to the newly formed Communications Solutions segment. The
Company concluded that there were no events or changes in circumstances, immediately prior to the reporting unitchange, that would indicate that either of the Company’s legacy reporting unit’s carrying amount may be impaired.
Therefore, no goodwill impairment assessment was deemed necessary related to the legacy reporting units prior to thechange.
The Company continues to perform its evaluation for the impairment of goodwill associated with the Company’s
reporting units on an annual basis as of each July 1, or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change thatwould indicate that a reporting unit’s carrying amount may be impaired. The Company reviews its reporting unit
structure each year, or more frequently based on changes in our organization. In conjunction with the new reporting
segment structure, we determined that the Company’s reporting units are the three new reportable business segments.
Prior to the segment structure change and through December 31, 2021, the Company then defined its reporting units as
the two reportable business segments “Interconnect Products and Assemblies” and “Cable Products and Solutions”.

59

In 2022, the annual goodwill impairment assessment was performed on the Company’s three reporting units, whilein 2021 and 2020, the Company performed its annual assessment on the historic two reporting units that were then in
effect. In the third quarter of 2022 and 2021, as part of our annual evaluations, the Company utilized the option to firstassess qualitative factors to determine whether it was necessary to perform the quantitative goodwill impairment
assessment. As part of these assessments, the Company reviews qualitative factors which include, but are not limited to,
economic, market and industry conditions, as well as the financial performance of each reporting unit. In accordancewith applicable guidance, an entity is not required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit if, after assessing thesequalitative factors, the Company determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value of each of its reporting units
is greater than its respective carrying amount. As of July 1, 2022 and 2021, the Company determined that it was more
likely than not that the fair value of each of its reporting units exceeded its respective carrying amount and, therefore, aquantitative assessment was not required. As a result, no goodwill impairment resulted from the assessment as of July 1,
2022 and 2021.
The Company has not recognized any goodwill impairment in 2022, 2021 or 2020 in connection with our annual
impairment assessments. Refer to Note 12 herein for further details related to the carrying amount of goodwill bysegment.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets consist primarily of customer relationships, proprietary technology and license agreements and are
generally amortized over the estimated periods of benefit. The fair value associated with acquired identifiable intangible
assets are generally valued based on discounted cash flow analyses, independent appraisals and certain estimates madeby management. The Company assesses and reviews its identifiable intangible assets, other than goodwill and including
identifiable intangible assets subject to amortization, for potential impairment whenever events or changes incircumstances indicate the intangible asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. Factors the Company considers
important, which could trigger an impairment review, include significant changes in the manner of the use of the asset,changes in historical trends in operating performance, significant changes in projected operating performance,
anticipated future cash flows and significant negative economic trends. Any indefinite-lived intangible assets that are
not subject to amortization, which are comprised of certain trade names, are reviewed at least annually for impairment.
In the third quarter of 2022, the Company performed its annual assessment of these identifiable indefinite-lived
intangible assets. Based on our assessment, the Company determined that it was more likely than not that the fair valueof the indefinite-lived intangible assets exceeded their respective carrying amounts. There has been no impairment
associated with our intangible assets in 2022, 2021 or 2020 as a result of such reviews.
Acquisitions
The Company accounts for acquisitions using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires that assets
acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at fair value as of the acquisition date. The purchase price of acquisitions
is allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimated fairvalues, and any excess purchase price over the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recorded as
goodwill. Any subsequent adjustments to the purchase price allocation prior to the completion of the measurement
period will be reflected as an adjustment to goodwill in the period in which the adjustments are identified. The
Company may use independent valuation specialists to assist in determining the estimated fair values of assets acquired
and liabilities assumed, which could require certain significant management assumptions and estimates.
Discontinued Operations and Held for Sale Accounting
The Company reports a component of an entity or group of components of an entity as a discontinued operation andheld for sale upon acquisition, if the Company has (i) executed a plan to sell the business as of the acquisition date or (ii)has begun to formulate a plan to sell the business and either currently meets or expects to meet the held for sale criteria
within three months. An entity meets the held for sale criteria when (a) management, having the authority to approve theaction, commits to a plan to sell the discontinued operation, the plan of which is unlikely to have any significant changes
or to be withdrawn, (b) the completed sale is probable within one year, and (c) an active program to locate a buyer has
been initiated with the operation actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value
and for immediate sale in its present condition. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed from an entity that qualifies
for held for sale accounting are measured and recorded at fair value less costs to sell, and are recorded as current assets
held for sale and current liabilities held for sale when the planned sale is expected to close within one year. The

60

Company separately accounts for the operating results and related cash flows associated with discontinued operations
until such operations are divested; such discontinued operations are reported separately from the operating results andrelated cash flows associated with continuing operations in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements. For
further information related to the Company’s discontinued operations, refer to Note 11 herein.
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s net sales in the Consolidated Statements of Income for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021
and 2020 are presented under Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with
Customers (Topic 606) (collectively with its related subsequent amendments, “Topic 606”). The Company recognizes
revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration towhich the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for such goods or services. The vast majority of our sales arerecognized when products are shipped from our facilities or delivered to our customers, depending on the respective
contractual terms. A nominal portion of our contracts have revenue recognized over time as control of the goods
transfers, rather than when the goods are delivered, and title, risk and reward of ownership are passed to the customer,
since they have no alternative use and for which the Company has an enforceable right to payment, including areasonable profit margin, from the customer for performance completed to date. Refer to Note 13 herein for further
discussion regarding the Company’s disaggregation of net sales.
The Company’s primary source of revenues consist of product sales to either end customers and their appointed
contract manufacturers (including original equipment manufacturers) or to distributors, and the vast majority of our sales
are recognized at a point-in-time under the core principle of recognizing revenue when control transfers to the customer.
Revenues are derived from contracts with customers, which in most cases are customer purchase orders that may be
governed by master sales agreements. For each contract, the promise to transfer the control of the products, each ofwhich is individually distinct, is considered to be the identified performance obligation. As part of the consideration
promised in each contract, the Company evaluates the customer’s credit risk. Our contracts do not have any significant
financing components, as payment terms are generally due net 30 to 120 days after delivery. Although products arealmost always sold at fixed prices, in determining the transaction price, we evaluate whether the price is subject torefund (due to returns) or adjustment (due to volume discounts, rebates, or price concessions) to determine the net
consideration we expect to be entitled to. We allocate the transaction price to each distinct product based on its relative
standalone selling price. Taxes assessed by governmental authorities and collected from the customer, including but notlimited to sales and use taxes and value-added taxes, are not included in the transaction price.
The vast majority of our sales are recognized at a point-in-time under the core principle of recognizing revenue
when control transfers to the customer. With limited exceptions, the Company recognizes revenue at the point in time
when we ship or deliver the product from our manufacturing facility to our customer, when our customer accepts and has
legal title of the goods, and where the Company has a present right to payment for such goods. Based on the respective
contract terms, most of our contracts’ revenues are recognized either (i) upon shipment based on free on board (“FOB”)
shipping point or (ii) when the product arrives at its destination. For the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and2020, less than 5% of our net sales were recognized over time, where the associated contracts relate to the sale of goods
with no alternative use as they are only sold to a single customer and whose underlying contract terms provide theCompany with an enforceable right to payment, including a reasonable profit margin, for performance completed to date,in the event of customer termination. For the contracts recognized over time, we typically record revenue using the input
method, based on the materials and labor costs incurred to date relative to the contract’s total estimated costs. Thismethod reasonably depicts when and as control of the goods transfers to the customer, since it measures our progress in
producing the goods, which is generally commensurate with this transfer of control. Since we typically invoice ourcustomers at the same time that we satisfy our performance obligations, contract assets and contract liabilities related toour contracts with customers recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets were not material as of December 31, 2022
and 2021.
The Company receives customer orders negotiated with multiple delivery dates that may extend across more than
one reporting period until the contract is fulfilled, the end of the order period is reached, or a pre-determined maximum
order value has been reached. Orders typically fluctuate from quarter to quarter based on customer demand and generalbusiness conditions. It is generally expected that a substantial portion of our remaining performance obligations will be
fulfilled within three months. Nearly all of our performance obligations are fulfilled within one year. Since our
performance obligations are part of contracts that generally have original durations of one year or less, we have not61

disclosed the aggregate amount of transaction prices associated with unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied performanceobligations as of December 31, 2022 and 2021.
Sales to Distributors and Resellers
Sales to certain distributors and resellers are made under terms allowing certain price adjustments and limited rightsof return of the Company’s products held in their inventory or upon sale to their end customers. The Company
maintains a reserve for unprocessed and estimated future price adjustment claims and returns as a refund liability. The
reserve is recorded as a reduction to revenue in the same period that the related revenue is recorded and is calculated
based on an analysis of historical claims and returns over a period of time to appropriately account for current pricing
and business trends. Similarly, sales returns and allowances are recorded based on historical return rates, as a reduction
to revenue with a corresponding reduction to cost of sales for the estimated cost of inventory that is expected to be
returned. These reserves were not material to the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021.
Warranty
Standard product warranty coverage, which provides assurance that our products will conform to the contractuallyagreed-upon specifications for a limited period from the date of shipment, is typically offered, while extended or
separately priced warranty coverage is typically not offered. The warranty claim is generally limited to a credit equal tothe purchase price or a promise to repair or replace the product for a specified period of time at no additional charge. We
estimate our warranty liability based on historical experience, product history, and current trends, and record warranty
expense in Cost of sales in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Warranty liabilities and related warranty expense
have not been and were not material in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the years
ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020.
Shipping and Handling Costs
The Company accounts for shipping and handling activities related to contracts with customers as a cost to fulfill
our promise to transfer control of the related product, including any such costs incurred after the customer has obtained
control of the goods. Shipping and handling costs are generally charged to and paid by the majority of our customers aspart of the contract. For a nominal portion of our customer contracts, primarily for certain customers in the broadband
communications market (a market primarily in the Communications Solutions segment), such costs are not separately
charged to the customers. Shipping and handling costs are included in Cost of sales in the accompanying Consolidated
Statements of Income.
Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities
The Company records contract assets or contract liabilities depending on the timing of revenue recognition, billingsand cash collections on a contract-by-contract basis. Contract assets represent unbilled receivables, which generally
arise when revenue recognized over time exceed amounts billed to customers. Contract liabilities represent billings oradvanced consideration received from customers in excess of revenue recognized to date. As the Company’s
performance obligations are typically less than one year, these amounts are generally recorded as current in theaccompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets within Prepaid expenses and other current assets or Other accrued expenses
as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. Contract assets and contract liabilities recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets
were not material as of December 31, 2022 and 2021.
Contract Costs
The Company’s policy is to capitalize any incremental costs incurred to obtain a customer contract, only to theextent that such costs are explicitly chargeable to the customer and the benefit associated with the costs is expected to belonger than one year. Otherwise, such costs are expensed as incurred and recorded within Selling, general andadministrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. Incremental costs to fulfill customer
orders, which are mostly comprised of pre-production and set-up costs, are generally capitalized to the extent such costs
are contractually guaranteed to be reimbursed by the customer. Otherwise, such costs are expensed as incurred.
Capitalized contract costs to obtain a contract or to fulfill a contract that are not accounted for under other existingaccounting standards are recorded as either other current or long-term assets on the accompanying Consolidated Balance
Sheets, depending on the timing of when the Company expects to recognize the expense, and are generally amortizedconsistent with the timing of when transfer of control of the related goods occurs. Such capitalized contract costs were62not material as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related amortization expense was not material for the years
ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020.
Retirement Pension Plans
Costs for retirement pension plans include current service costs and amortization of prior service costs over the
average working life expectancy. It is the Company’s policy to fund current pension costs taking into consideration
minimum funding requirements and maximum tax deductible limitations. The expense of retiree medical benefit
programs is recognized during the employees’ service with the Company. The recognition of expense and the related
obligation for retirement pension plans and medical benefit programs is significantly impacted by estimates andassumptions made by management such as discount rates used to value certain liabilities, expected return on assets,mortality projections and future health care costs. The Company uses third-party specialists such as actuaries andinvestment advisors to assist management in appropriately measuring the expense and obligations associated withpension and other postretirement plan benefits.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for its stock option and restricted share awards based on the fair value of the award at thedate of grant and recognizes compensation expense over the service period that the awards are expected to vest. The
Company recognizes expense for stock-based compensation with graded vesting on a straight-line basis over the vesting
period of the entire award. Stock-based compensation expense includes the estimated effects of forfeitures, which areadjusted over the requisite service period to the extent actual forfeitures differ or are expected to differ from such
estimates. Changes in estimated forfeitures are recognized in the period of change and impact the amount of expense to
be recognized in future periods. The expense incurred for stock-based compensation plans is included in Selling, generaland administrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income.
Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes are provided for revenue and expenses which are recognized in different periods for income
tax and financial statement reporting purposes. The Company recognizes the effects of changes in tax laws and rates ondeferred income taxes in the period in which legislation is enacted. Deferred income taxes are provided on undistributed
earnings of foreign subsidiaries in the period in which the Company determines it no longer intends to permanently
reinvest such earnings outside the United States. As of December 31, 2022, the Company has not provided for deferredincome taxes on undistributed foreign earnings of approximately $1,100 related to certain geographies, as it is theCompany’s intention to permanently reinvest such earnings outside the United States. It is impracticable to calculate theamount of taxes that would be payable if these undistributed foreign earnings were to be repatriated. In addition, theCompany remains indefinitely reinvested with respect to its financial statement basis in excess of tax basis of its
investments in foreign subsidiaries. It is not practicable to determine the deferred tax liability with respect to such basis
differences. Deferred tax assets are regularly assessed for recoverability based on both historical and anticipatedearnings levels and a valuation allowance is recorded when it is more likely than not that these amounts will not berecovered.
The tax effects of an uncertain tax position taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns are recognized only
if it is “more likely than not” to be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on its technical merits as of
the reporting date. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on
the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The
Company includes estimated interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes.
As a result of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”), the global intangible low-taxed income(“GILTI”) provision imposed a tax on certain earnings of foreign subsidiaries. The Company elected an accounting
policy to account for GILTI as a period cost. The U.S. Treasury Department has issued final interpretive guidance
relating to certain provisions of the Tax Act and proposed additional guidance related to the same provisions. The
Company will account for the impact of additional guidance in the period in which any new guidance is released, if
appropriate.
Foreign Currency Translation
The financial position and results of operations of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are measured using local
currency as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities of such subsidiaries have been translated into U.S. dollars at63

current exchange rates and related revenues and expenses have been translated at weighted average exchange rates. The
aggregate effect of translation adjustments is included as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive income(loss) within equity. Transaction gains and losses related to operating assets and liabilities are included in Cost of sales.
Research and Development
Costs incurred in connection with the development of new products and applications are expensed as incurred.
Research and development expenses for the creation of new and improved products and processes were $323.6, $317.7,
and $260.7, for the years 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and are included in Selling, general and administrative
expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income.
Environmental Obligations
The Company recognizes the potential cost for environmental remediation activities when site assessments are
made, remediation efforts are probable and related amounts can be reasonably estimated. The Company assesses its
environmental liabilities as necessary and appropriate through regular reviews of contractual commitments, site
assessments, feasibility studies and formal remedial design and action plans.
Net Income per Common Share
Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income attributable to Amphenol Corporation by theweighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing
net income attributable to Amphenol Corporation by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares,
including dilutive common shares, the dilutive effect of which relates to stock options. Diluted earnings per commonshare assumes the exercise of outstanding dilutive stock options using the treasury stock method. Refer to Note 8 of theNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a reconciliation of the basic weighted average common shares
outstanding to diluted weighted average common shares outstanding, used in the calculation of earnings per share (basic
and diluted) from continuing operations, discontinued operations and for total Amphenol Corporation.
Treasury Stock
Treasury stock purchases are recorded at cost. Any issuances from treasury shares are recorded using the weighted
average cost method.
Noncontrolling Interests
The Company presents noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities as its own caption within equity, separate
from the Company’s equity attributable to Amphenol Corporation stockholders, to the extent that such noncontrollinginterests do not have redemption features that are not solely within the control of the Company, as discussed below. Net
income from continuing operations attributable to noncontrolling interests is classified below net income fromcontinuing operations. Earnings per share is determined after the impact of the noncontrolling interests’ share in net
income of the Company.
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest
The Company reports noncontrolling interests in the mezzanine (“temporary equity”) section, between liabilities andequity, of the Consolidated Balance Sheets, to the extent that such noncontrolling interests have redemption features,such as a put option, that is redeemable at a fixed or determinable price on a fixed or determinable date at the option of
the holder, or upon the occurrence of an event that is not solely within the control of the Company. Due to its
redeemable features that are outside the control of the Company, the redeemable noncontrolling interest is and willcontinue to be reported in the mezzanine section in the Consolidated Balance Sheets for as long as the put option is
exercisable by the option holder. The carrying amount of the redeemable noncontrolling interest, initially valued at fairvalue as part of acquisition accounting, is adjusted each reporting period to equal the greater of the (i) redemption valueor (ii) carrying value of the noncontrolling interest, adjusted each reporting period for income or loss attributable to thenoncontrolling interest and any distributions made to date. The redemption value is generally calculated based on amultiple of earnings. Any measurement adjustments, if applicable, to the redeemable noncontrolling interest are64

recognized in Additional paid-in capital in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Refer to Note 5 herein for further details
related to the redeemable noncontrolling interest.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company records each of its derivatives at fair value within the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets,
and the respective accounting treatment for each derivative is based on its hedge designation. We do not enter into
derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes, and our derivative financial instruments are withlarge financial institutions with strong credit ratings. As of December 31, 2022, the Company does not have any
significant concentration of exposure with any one counterparty. Refer to Note 5 herein for further discussion of ourderivative financial instruments.
Cash Flow Hedges
The Company periodically utilizes derivative financial instruments in the management of interest rate and foreign
currency exposures. Such cash flow hedges include foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge exposure to foreign
currency exchange rate fluctuations for certain transactions denominated in foreign currencies. As of December 31,
2022 and 2021, the aggregate notional value of our outstanding cash flow hedge contracts was approximately nil and$20, respectively. Gains and losses on derivatives designated as cash flow hedges resulting from changes in fair value
are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), and subsequently reflected in Cost of sales in theConsolidated Statements of Income in a manner that matches the timing of the actual income or expense of such
instruments with that of the hedged transaction. Any ineffective portion of the change in the fair value of designatedhedging instruments is included in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Cash flows associated with cash flow hedges
are classified and reported consistent with the cash flows associated with the underlying hedged item.
Net Investment Hedges
The Company is exposed to variability in the U.S. dollar equivalent of the net investments in our foreignsubsidiaries and, by extension, the U.S. dollar equivalent of any foreign earnings repatriated to the U.S. due to potentialchanges in foreign currency exchange rates. As a result, the Company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts tohedge the net investments in certain foreign subsidiaries from which we expect to repatriate earnings to the UnitedStates. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the aggregate notional value of our outstanding net investment hedge
contracts was $75 and $250, respectively. For such instruments that are designated and qualify as a net investment
hedge, the effective portion of the hedging instrument’s gain or loss is reported as a component of other comprehensive
income (loss) and recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The
gain or loss will be subsequently reclassified into net earnings if the net investment in the hedged foreign operation iseither sold or substantially liquidated. Cash flows associated with net investment hedges are classified and reported
within investing activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow. Cash flows associated with our net investment
hedges were not material for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020.
Non-Designated Derivatives
The Company enters into certain derivative financial instruments, from time to time, that are not designated as
hedging instruments. The Company enters into such foreign exchange forward contracts to reduce and minimize theimpact of foreign currency fluctuations arising from the change in fair value of certain foreign currency denominatedassets and liabilities. These non-designated derivative instruments are adjusted to fair value each period throughearnings, within the financial statement line item to which the derivative instrument relates. For each of the three years
ended December 31, 2022, such non-designated derivative instruments, including their impact to the Consolidated
Statements of Income, were not material to the Company. Cash flows associated with non-designated hedges areclassified and reported consistent with the cash flows associated with the underlying hedged item.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update(“ASU”) No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities
from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2021-08”), which amends ASC 805 by requiring acquiring entities to apply ASC
606 to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities in a business combination. Under current GAAP, anacquirer generally recognizes such items at fair value on the acquisition date. The intent of ASU 2021-08 is to address
diversity in practice and improve comparability for both the recognition and measurement of acquired revenue contracts65

by providing (i) guidance on how to determine whether a contract liability is recognized by the acquirer in a businesscombination and (ii) specific guidance on how to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities fromrevenue contracts in a business combination. ASU 2021-08 is effective for fiscal years, including interim periods withinthose fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2022, and the amendments should be applied prospectively to businesscombinations occurring on or after the effective date of the amendments, with early adoption permitted. The Company
has completed its evaluation of ASU 2021-08, which we adopted on January 1, 2023, and its impact on our financial
condition, results of operations or cash flows will be dependent upon the nature of any future business combinations.
The United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority (the “FCA”), which regulates the London Interbank Offered
Rate (“LIBOR”), previously announced its intent to phase out the use of LIBOR by the end of 2021. In December 2020,
the ICE Benchmark Administration published a consultation on its intention to extend the publication of certain U.S.
dollar LIBOR (“USD LIBOR”) rates until June 30, 2023. Subsequently in March 2021, the FCA announced some USD
LIBOR tenors (overnight, 1-month, 3-month, 6-month and 12-month) will continue to be published until June 30, 2023.
The U.S. Federal Reserve, in conjunction with the Alternative Reference Rates Committee, a steering committee
comprised of large U.S. financial institutions, identified the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (the “SOFR”) as its
preferred benchmark alternative to USD LIBOR. The SOFR represents a measure of the cost of borrowing cash
overnight, collateralized by U.S. Treasury securities, and is calculated based on directly observable U.S. Treasurybacked repurchase transactions. In response, the FASB has since issued various guidance to help facilitate the transition
away from LIBOR, including, among other things, optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP tocontracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to bediscontinued by reference rate reform. Effective November 30, 2021, the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility (asdefined in Note 4 herein) no longer references LIBOR for interest rate determinations. Since the Company does not
currently have nor does it expect to have any more reliance on borrowings or any other financial instruments tied to
LIBOR, the LIBOR transition will not have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash
flows.
In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-04, Liabilities – Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic
405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations (“ASU 2022-04”), which amends ASC 405 by requiring
entities to provide more detailed disclosures regarding supplier finance programs used in connection with the purchaseof goods and services. The intent of ASU 2022-04 is to enhance transparency of these programs by requiring entities todisclose (i) the key terms of the program(s), including the payment terms and assets pledged as security or other forms ofguarantees, (ii) the amount of obligations outstanding at the end of the reporting period and a description of where thoseobligations are presented on the balance sheet, and (iii) annual rollforward information of the activity of such obligations
during the reporting period. ASU 2022-04 is effective for fiscal years, including interim periods within those fiscal
years, beginning after December 15, 2022, with the exception of the disclosure of rollforward information, which iseffective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. Disclosure requirements under ASU 2022-04 must be
applied retrospectively covering each period for which a balance sheet is presented, with the exception of the rollforward
information which shall be applied prospectively. The Company has completed its evaluation of ASU 2022-04, which is
not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements upon its adoption in the first quarter of
2023.

5,005.8(1) The fair value of each series of the Company’s Senior Notes is based on recent bid prices in an active market and is therefore
classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy (Note 5).

Revolving Credit Facility
On November 30, 2021, the Company amended and restated its $2,500.0 unsecured revolving credit facility (the“Revolving Credit Facility”). As a result, the Revolving Credit Facility no longer references LIBOR for interest rate
determinations. The Revolving Credit Facility maintains the lenders’ aggregate commitments under the facility at$2,500.0. The Revolving Credit Facility matures in November 2026 and gives the Company the ability to borrow, invarious currencies, at a spread that varies, based on the Company’s debt rating, over certain currency-specific benchmark
rates, which benchmark rates in the case of U.S. dollar borrowings are either the base rate or the adjusted term SOFR.
The Company may utilize the Revolving Credit Facility for general corporate purposes. As of December 31, 2022 and672021, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility. The carrying value of any borrowings
under the Revolving Credit Facility would approximate their fair value due primarily to their market interest rates andwould be classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy (Note 5). Any outstanding borrowings under the Revolving
Credit Facility are classified as long-term debt in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Revolving Credit
Facility requires payment of certain annual agency and commitment fees and requires that the Company satisfy certain
financial covenants.
Term Loan Credit Facility
On April 19, 2022, the Company entered into a two-year, $750.0 unsecured delayed draw term loan credit
agreement (the “2022 Term Loan”), which is scheduled to mature on April 19, 2024. The 2022 Term Loan was undrawn
at closing and may be drawn on up to five occasions over the life of the facility. The 2022 Term Loan may be repaid at
any time without premium or penalty, and, once repaid, cannot be reborrowed. When drawn upon, the proceeds fromthe 2022 Term Loan are expected to be used for general corporate purposes. Interest rates under the 2022 Term Loanare based on a spread over either the base rate or the adjusted term SOFR, which spread varies based on the Company’s
debt rating. The carrying value of any borrowings under the 2022 Term Loan would approximate its fair value due
primarily to its market interest rates and would be classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy (Note 5). As of
December 31, 2022, the Company had not yet drawn upon the 2022 Term Loan, and as such, there were no outstanding
borrowings under the 2022 Term Loan. The 2022 Term Loan requires payment of certain commitment fees and requiresthat the Company satisfy certain financial covenants, which financial covenants are the same as those under the
Revolving Credit Facility.
Commercial Paper Programs
The Company has a commercial paper program (the “U.S. Commercial Paper Program”) pursuant to which theCompany may issue short-term unsecured commercial paper notes (the “USCP Notes” or “U.S. Commercial Paper”) in
one or more private placements in the United States. The maturities of the USCP Notes vary, but may not exceed 397
days from the date of issue. The USCP Notes are sold under customary terms in the commercial paper market and may
be issued at par or a discount therefrom, and bear varying interest rates on a fixed or floating basis. The maximum
aggregate principal amount outstanding of USCP Notes at any time is $2,500.0. The Company utilizes borrowings
under the U.S. Commercial Paper Program for general corporate purposes, which in recent years, have included fully or
partially funding acquisitions, as well as repaying certain outstanding senior notes, such as (i) the third quarter 2021
redemption of its unsecured 3.125% Senior Notes (the “2021 Senior Notes”) due September 15, 2021, of which $227.7
aggregate principal amount was then outstanding and (ii) the fourth quarter 2021 redemption of its unsecured 4.00%
Senior Notes (the “2022 Senior Notes”) due February 1, 2022, of which $295.0 aggregate principal amount was thenoutstanding. As of December 31, 2022, the amount of USCP Notes outstanding was $632.8, with a weighted averageinterest rate of 4.69%. As of December 31, 2021, the amount of USCP Notes outstanding was $795.2, with a weighted
average interest rate of 0.29%.
The Company and one of its wholly owned European subsidiaries (the “Euro Issuer”) also have a commercial paper
program (the “Euro Commercial Paper Program” and, together with the U.S. Commercial Paper Program, the“Commercial Paper Programs”), pursuant to which the Euro Issuer may issue short-term unsecured commercial paper
notes (the “ECP Notes” and, together with the USCP Notes, the “Commercial Paper”), which are guaranteed by theCompany and are to be issued outside of the United States. The maturities of the ECP Notes will vary, but may notexceed 183 days from the date of issue. The ECP Notes are sold under customary terms in the commercial paper market
and may be issued at par or a discount therefrom or a premium thereto and bear varying interest rates on a fixed or
floating basis. The ECP Notes may be issued in Euros, Sterling, U.S. dollars or other currencies. The maximum
aggregate principal amount outstanding of ECP Notes at any time is $2,000.0. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, there
were no ECP Notes outstanding under the Euro Commercial Paper Program.
Amounts available under the Commercial Paper Programs may be borrowed, repaid and re-borrowed from time totime. In conjunction with the Revolving Credit Facility, as of December 31, 2022, the authorization from theCompany’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) limits the maximum principal amount outstanding of USCP Notes, ECP
Notes, and any other commercial paper or similar programs, along with outstanding amounts under the Revolving Credit
Facility, at any time to $2,500.0 in the aggregate. The Commercial Paper Programs are rated A-2 by Standard & Poor’s
and P-2 by Moody’s and, based on the Board’s authorization described above, are currently backstopped by the
Revolving Credit Facility, as amounts undrawn under the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility are available to repay
Commercial Paper, if necessary. Net proceeds of the issuances of Commercial Paper are expected to be used for general68corporate purposes. The Commercial Paper is classified as long-term debt in the accompanying Consolidated Balance
Sheets since the Company has the intent and ability to refinance the Commercial Paper on a long-term basis using theCompany’s Revolving Credit Facility. The carrying value of Commercial Paper approximates its fair value, due
primarily to its market interest rates and is classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy (Note 5).
U.S. Senior Notes
On September 14, 2021, the Company issued $750.0 principal amount of unsecured 2.200% Senior Notes due
September 15, 2031 at 99.634% of face value (the “2031 Senior Notes”). The 2031 Senior Notes are unsecured and rank
equally in right of payment with the Company’s and the Euro Issuer’s other unsecured senior indebtedness. Interest on
the 2031 Senior Notes is payable semiannually on March 15 and September 15 of each year, commencing on March 15,2022. Prior to June 15, 2031, the Company may, at its option, redeem some or all of the 2031 Senior Notes at any timeby paying the redemption price (which includes a make-whole premium), plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but
not including, the date of redemption. If redeemed on or after June 15, 2031, the Company may, at its option, redeem
some or all of the 2031 Senior Notes at any time by paying the redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amountthereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of redemption. The Company used the net
proceeds from the 2031 Senior Notes to repay certain outstanding borrowings under the U.S. Commercial Paper
Program.
On February 20, 2020, the Company issued $400.0 principal amount of unsecured 2.050% Senior Notes due
March 1, 2025 at 99.829% of face value (the “2025 Senior Notes”). The 2025 Senior Notes are unsecured and rank
equally in right of payment with the Company’s and the Euro Issuer’s other unsecured senior indebtedness. Interest on
the 2025 Senior Notes is payable semiannually on March 1 and September 1 of each year, commencing on September 1,
2020. Prior to February 1, 2025, the Company may, at its option, redeem some or all of the 2025 Senior Notes at any
time by paying the redemption price (which includes a make-whole premium), plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any,
to, but not including, the date of redemption. If redeemed on or after February 1, 2025, the Company may, at its option,
redeem some or all of the 2025 Senior Notes at any time by paying the redemption price equal to 100% of the principal
amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of redemption. On April 1, 2020,
the Company used the net proceeds from the 2025 Senior Notes, together with cash on hand, to repay the $400.0
outstanding principal amount of unsecured 2.20% Senior Notes due April 1, 2020 upon maturity.
All of the Company’s outstanding senior notes in the United States (the “U.S. Senior Notes”) are unsecured andrank equally in right of payment with the Company’s and the Euro Issuer’s other unsecured senior indebtedness. Interest
on each series of U.S. Senior Notes is payable semiannually. The Company may, at its option, redeem some or all of
any series of U.S. Senior Notes at any time, subject to certain terms and conditions, which include paying 100% of theprincipal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption, and, with certain exceptions, a
make-whole premium.
Euro Senior Notes
The Euro Issuer has two outstanding unsecured senior notes issued in Europe. In 2020, the Euro Issuer issued€500.0 (approximately $545.4 at date of issuance) principal amount of unsecured 0.750% Senior Notes due May 4, 2026
at 99.563% of face value (the “2026 Euro Notes” or the “0.750% Euro Senior Notes”), the net proceeds of which wereused to repay amounts outstanding under the then existing revolving credit facility. The Euro Issuer also has €500.0(approximately $574.6 at date of issuance) principal amount of unsecured 2.000% Senior Notes due October 8, 2028 at
99.498% of face value (the “2028 Euro Notes” or the “2.000% Euro Senior Notes”, together with the 2026 Euro Notes,
the “Euro Notes”, and collectively with the 2026 Euro Notes and the U.S. Senior Notes, the “Senior Notes”), the net
proceeds of which were used to repay a portion of the outstanding amounts under our Commercial Paper Programs, withthe remainder of the net proceeds being used for general corporate purposes. The Euro Notes are unsecured and rank
equally in right of payment with the Company’s and the Euro Issuer’s other unsecured senior indebtedness, and are fully
and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Company. Interest on the 2026 Euro Notes and 2028
Euro Notes is payable annually on May 4 and October 8 of each year, respectively. The Company may, at its option,
redeem some or all of either series of Euro Notes at any time, subject to certain terms and conditions, which include
paying 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date ofredemption, and, with certain exceptions, a make-whole premium.

69

The fair value of each series of Senior Notes is based on recent bid prices in an active market and is therefore
classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy (Note 5). The Company’s Senior Notes impose certain obligations on the
Company and prohibit various actions by the Company unless it satisfies certain financial requirements.
The maturity of the Company’s debt (exclusive of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs as of December 31,2022) over each of the next five years ending December 31 and thereafter, is as follows:

Note 5—Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is determined based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer aliability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants. These requirements establish market or observable inputs as the preferred source of values.
Assumptions based on hypothetical transactions are used in the absence of market inputs. The Company does not haveany non-financial instruments accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis.
The valuation techniques required are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflectmarket data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions.
These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:
Level 1
Level 2

Level 3

Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar
instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs areobservable or whose significant value drivers are observable.
Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable.

The Company’s assets and liabilities currently subject to such standards with fair value disclosure requirements areprimarily (i) debt instruments, (ii) pension plan assets, and (iii) assets acquired and liabilities and noncontrolling interests
assumed as part of acquisition accounting, which are discussed in Note 4, Note 9 and Note 11, respectively, herein,along with short- and long-term investments and derivative instruments, discussed below. Substantially all of theCompany’s short- and long-term investments consist of certificates of deposit, which are considered as Level 2 in thefair value hierarchy. The vast majority of long-term investments have original maturities of two years. The carrying
amounts of these short-term and long-term instruments, the vast majority of which are in non-U.S. bank accounts,
approximate their respective fair values. The Company’s derivative instruments primarily consist of foreign exchange
forward contracts, which are valued using bank quotations based on market observable inputs such as forward and spot
rates and are therefore classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The impact of the credit risk related to thesefinancial assets is immaterial.

70

The Company reviews the fair value hierarchy classifications on a quarterly basis and determines the appropriateclassification of such assets and liabilities subject to the fair value hierarchy standards based on, among other things, theability to observe valuation inputs. The fair values of the Company’s financial and non-financial assets and liabilities
subject to such standards at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 are as follows:

(19.0)(19.0)The Company utilizes foreign exchange forward contracts, hedging instruments accounted for as cash flow hedges,
in the management of foreign currency exposures. In addition, the Company also enters into foreign exchange forward
contracts, accounted for as net investment hedges, to hedge our exposure to variability in the U.S. dollar equivalent of
the net investments in certain foreign subsidiaries. As of December 31, 2022, the fair value of such foreign exchange
forward contracts in the table above consisted primarily of (i) one outstanding foreign exchange forward contract
accounted for as a net investment hedge and (ii) various outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts that are notdesignated as hedging instruments. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had no outstanding foreign exchange
forward contracts accounted for as cash flow hedges. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the fair values of theCompany’s forward contracts are recorded within Prepaid expenses and other current assets, Other long-term assets,
Other accrued expenses and Other long-term liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets, depending on
their value and remaining contractual period.
Certain acquisitions may result in noncontrolling interest holders who, in certain cases, are entitled to a put option,
giving them the ability to put some or all of their redeemable interest in the shares of the acquiree to the Company.
Specifically, if exercised by the noncontrolling interest holder, Amphenol would be required to purchase some or all of
the option holder’s redeemable interest, at a redemption price during specified time period(s) stipulated in the respective
acquisition agreement. The redeemable noncontrolling interest as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 is related to theacquisition of Halo Technology Limited (“Halo”), which closed in December 2021, and based on the terms of theagreement, will remain in temporary equity until the put option is either fully exercised or expires. The redemption
value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest is generally calculated using Level 3 unobservable inputs based on amultiple of earnings, which, for the redeemable noncontrolling interest currently outstanding, approximates fair value.
As such, the redemption value is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, and is recorded as Redeemablenoncontrolling interest on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. A rollforward of the
Redeemable noncontrolling interest for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 is included in the accompanying
Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity.
With the exception of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with acquisition
accounting, the Company does not have any other significant financial or non-financial assets and liabilities that aremeasured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. For further discussion and related policies regarding the Company’s
short- and long-term investments, derivative financial instruments, and redeemable noncontrolling interest, refer to Note

The United States federal government enacted the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“Tax Act”) in December 2017. As aresult, in 2017, the Company recorded a transition tax (“Transition Tax”) related to the deemed repatriation of theaccumulated unremitted earnings and profits of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries. In the second quarter of 2022, theCompany paid its fifth annual installment of the Transition Tax, net of applicable tax credits and deductions. The
Company will pay the balance of the Transition Tax, net of applicable tax credits and deductions, over the remainder ofthe eight-year period ending 2025, as permitted under the Tax Act. The current and long-term portions of the Transition
Tax are recorded in Accrued income taxes and Other long-term liabilities, respectively, on the Consolidated Balance
Sheets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. In addition, as a result of the Tax Act, the Company also recorded a tax
charge, in 2017, related to changes in the Company’s permanent reinvestment assertion, due to our intention to repatriate
prior accumulated unremitted earnings from certain foreign subsidiaries over time. We will pay such taxes when those
respective earnings are repatriated.
At December 31, 2022, the Company had $132.7 of foreign tax loss carryforwards, $82.5 of U.S. state tax loss
carryforwards and $11.1 of U.S. federal tax loss carryforwards, of which $59.5, $82.5 and $11.1, respectively, will either
expire or be refunded at various dates through 2042 and the balance can be carried forward indefinitely. At
December 31, 2022, the Company had $0.3 of foreign tax credit carryforwards, $17.8 of U.S. state tax credit
carryforwards, and $1.6 of U.S. federal tax credit carryforwards, of which $0.3, $11.9, and $1.6, respectively, will either
expire or be refunded at various dates through 2042 and the balance can be carried forward indefinitely.
A valuation allowance of $42.2 and $44.9 at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, has been recorded which
relates primarily to the U.S. state and foreign net operating loss carryforwards and U.S. state tax credits. The valuation
allowance for deferred tax assets decreased by $2.7 in 2022, which was primarily driven by foreign currency exchange.
The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets increased by $4.8 in 2021, which was primarily driven by U.S. state andforeign net operating loss carryforwards.

The Company includes estimated interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision forincome taxes. During the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, the provision for income taxes included a net
expense (benefit) of $0.8, ($4.6) and $2.8, respectively, in estimated interest and penalties. As of December 31, 2022,
2021 and 2020, the liability for unrecognized tax benefits included $35.8, $34.5 and $39.2, respectively, for tax-related
interest and penalties.
The Company operates in the U.S. and numerous foreign taxable jurisdictions, and at any point in time has
numerous audits underway at various stages of completion. With few exceptions, the Company is subject to income tax
examinations by tax authorities for the years 2017 and after. The Company is generally not able to precisely estimate theultimate settlement amounts or timing until the close of an audit. The Company evaluates its tax positions andestablishes liabilities for uncertain tax positions that may be challenged by tax authorities and may not be fully sustained,
despite the Company’s belief that the underlying tax positions are fully supportable. As of December 31, 2022 and
2021, the amount of unrecognized tax benefits, including penalties and interest, which if recognized would impact theeffective tax rate, was approximately $194.4 and $177.6, respectively. Unrecognized tax benefits are reviewed on an
ongoing basis and are adjusted for changing facts and circumstances, including the progress of tax audits and the closingof statutes of limitations. Based on information currently available, management anticipates that over the next twelvemonth period, audit activity could be completed and statutes of limitations may close relating to existing unrecognizedtax benefits of approximately $18.5.
Inflation Reduction Act of 2022
On August 16, 2022, the President of the United States signed into law the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the“IRA”), a tax and spending package that introduces several tax-related provisions, including a 15% corporate alternative
minimum tax (“CAMT”) on certain large corporations and a 1% excise tax on certain corporate stock repurchases.
Companies will be required to reassess their valuation allowances for certain affected deferred tax assets in the period ofenactment but will not need to remeasure deferred tax balances for the related tax accounting implications of the CAMT.
The impact of these provisions, which became effective for Amphenol beginning on January 1, 2023, is dependent on
several factors, including interpretive regulatory guidance, which has not yet been released. The Company has reviewed
and assessed the provisions of the IRA, including several other non-tax related provisions, and the Company does not
currently believe that the IRA will have a material impact on its financial condition, results of operations, liquidity andcash flows.
Note 7—Equity
Stock-Based Compensation:
For the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, the Company’s Income from continuing operations before
income taxes was reduced for stock-based compensation expense of $89.5, $83.0 and $70.5, respectively, the expense ofwhich is included in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements ofIncome. In addition, for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized aggregate
income tax benefits (associated with stock-based compensation) of $64.8, $71.7 and $50.7, respectively, in Provision forincome taxes in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. These aggregate income tax benefits during theyears ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 include excess tax benefits of $56.0, $63.4 and $42.8, respectively,from option exercises. The impact associated with recognizing excess tax benefits from option exercises in theprovision for income taxes on our consolidated financial statements could result in significant fluctuations in our
effective tax rate in the future, since the provision for income taxes will be impacted by the timing and intrinsic value of
future stock-based compensation award exercises.
Stock Options
In May 2017, the Company adopted the 2017 Stock Purchase and Option Plan for Key Employees of Amphenol andSubsidiaries (the “2017 Employee Option Plan”), which provided for the issuance of 60,000,000 shares. In March 2021,
the Board authorized and approved the Amended and Restated 2017 Stock Purchase and Option Plan for Key Employeesof Amphenol and Subsidiaries (the “Amended 2017 Employee Option Plan” and, together with the 2017 Employee
Option Plan, the “2017 Option Plan”), which among other things, increased the number of shares reserved for issuanceunder the plan by 40,000,000 shares. The Amended 2017 Employee Option Plan was approved by the Company’s
stockholders and became effective on May 19, 2021. As of December 31, 2022, there were 36,808,063 shares ofCommon Stock available for the granting of additional stock options under the 2017 Option Plan. Prior to the approval74

of the 2017 Employee Option Plan, the Company issued stock options under the 2009 Stock Purchase and Option Plan
for Key Employees of Amphenol and Subsidiaries, and its amendment (the “2009 Employee Option Plan”). No
additional stock options will be granted under the 2009 Employee Option Plan. Options granted under the 2017 Option
Plan and the 2009 Employee Option Plan generally vest ratably over a period of five years from the date of grant and are
generally exercisable over a period of ten years from the date of grant.

As of December 31, 2022, the total compensation cost related to non-vested options not yet recognized wasapproximately $224.2, with a weighted average expected amortization period of 3.36 years.
The grant-date fair value of each option grant under the 2009 Employee Option Plan and the 2017 Option Plan isestimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The grant-date fair value of each share grant is determinedbased on the closing share price of the Company’s Common Stock on the date of the grant. The fair value is thenamortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards, which is generally the vesting period.
Use of a valuation model for option grants requires management to make certain assumptions with respect to selected75

model inputs. Expected share price volatility is calculated based on the historical volatility of the Common Stock andimplied volatility derived from related exchange traded options. The average expected life is based on the contractual
term of the option and expected exercise and historical experience. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury
zero-coupon issuances with a remaining term equal to the expected life assumed at the date of grant. The expectedannual dividend per share is based on the Company’s dividend rate.

Note 9—Benefit Plans and Other Postretirement Benefits
Defined Benefit Plans
The Company and certain of its domestic subsidiaries have defined benefit pension plans (the “U.S. Plans”), which
cover certain U.S. employees and which represent the majority of the plan assets and benefit obligations of the aggregate
defined benefit plans of the Company. The U.S. Plans’ benefits are generally based on years of service andcompensation and are generally noncontributory. The majority of U.S. employees are not covered by the U.S. Plans andare instead covered by various defined contribution plans. The Company also has an unfunded Supplemental Employee
Retirement Plan (“SERP”), which provides for the payment of the portion of annual pension which cannot be paid fromthe retirement plan as a result of regulatory limitations on average compensation for purposes of the benefit computation.
Certain foreign subsidiaries have defined benefit plans covering their employees (the “Foreign Plans” and, together with
the U.S. Plans, the “Plans”). The largest foreign pension plan, in accordance with local regulations, is unfunded and had
a projected benefit obligation of approximately $71.5 and $104.1 at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Total
required contributions to be made during 2023 for the unfunded Foreign Plans are included in Other accrued expenses in
the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets and in the tables below.

The projected benefit obligations decreased in 2022 primarily due to actuarial gains, resulting from the impact ofhigher discount rates on our projected benefit obligation, along with foreign exchange translation and benefits paid
during the year. The projected benefit obligation decreased in 2021 primarily due to both actuarial gains, resulting fromthe impact of higher discount rates on our projected benefit obligation, and benefits paid during the year. The
accumulated benefit obligation for the Company’s defined benefit pension plans was $560.1 and $753.7 at December 31,
2022 and 2021, respectively. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the accumulated benefit obligation for the U.S. Plans
was $387.8 and $494.2, respectively, and for the Foreign Plans was $172.3 and $259.5, respectively.

1.58 % 1.12 % 1.59 %3.35 % 2.71 % 3.25 %1.75 % 1.75 % 1.78 %The pension expense for the Plans is calculated based upon a number of actuarial assumptions established on
January 1 of the applicable year, including mortality projections as well as a weighted average discount rate, rate ofincrease in future compensation levels and an expected long-term rate of return on the respective Plans’ assets which aredetailed in the table above. The Company records service costs in the same line item as the respective employeecompensation costs and within operating income, while all non-service costs are reported separately within Other
income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
The discount rate used by the Company for valuing pension liabilities is based on a review of high quality corporatebond yields with maturities approximating the remaining life of the projected benefit obligations. The weighted average
discount rate for the U.S. Plans on this basis was 5.18% and 2.69% at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The
increase in the discount rate for the U.S. Plans resulted in a decrease in the benefit obligation of approximately $107 at
December 31, 2022. The weighted average discount rate for the Foreign Plans was 4.20% and 1.58% at December 31,
2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease in the benefit obligation associated with our Foreign Plans at December 31,
2022 was primarily driven by the increase in the discount rate, along with foreign currency translation. The Company
calculates its service and interest costs by applying a split discount rate approach under which specific spot rates along
the selected yield curve are applied to the relevant projected cash flows as the Company believes this method more
precisely measures its obligations. The mortality assumptions used by the Company reflect commonly used mortality
tables and improvement scales for each plan and increased life expectancies for plan participants.
The primary investment objective of the Plans is to ensure an adequate pool of assets to support the benefit
obligations to participants, retirees and beneficiaries. Over time, the Plans have aimed to earn a rate of return on assets
greater than the liability discount rate, with a prudent level of risk and diversification. For the U.S. Plans, this has
resulted in assets exceeding benefit obligations. In an effort to reduce the funding status volatility of the Plans, the target
asset allocations for the U.S. Plans were 25% equities and 75% fixed income as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. The
Company expects to maintain these target asset allocations for the U.S. Plans for 2023. Short-term strategic ranges forinvestments will continue to be established within these new long-term target percentages. The Company regularly
reviews the actual asset allocation and periodically rebalances investments to its targeted allocation when consideredappropriate.
81

The Company invests in a diversified investment portfolio through various investment managers and evaluates its
plan assets for the existence of concentration risks. As of December 31, 2022, there were no significant concentrationsof risks in the Company’s defined benefit plan assets. The Company does not invest nor instruct investment managers toinvest pension assets in Amphenol securities. The Plans may indirectly hold the Company’s securities as a result of
external investment management in certain commingled funds. Such holdings would not be material relative to thePlans’ total assets. The Company’s Foreign Plans primarily invest in equity and debt securities and insurance contracts,
as determined by each Plans’ Trustees or investment managers.
In developing the expected long-term rate of return assumption for the U.S. Plans, the Company relies primarily on
projected long-term asset returns by asset class prepared annually by our investment consultants. During 2022, theexpected long-term rate of return on the U.S. Plans’ assets was based on an asset allocation assumption of approximately
25% with equity managers (with an expected long-term rate of return of approximately 6.0%) and 75% with fixedincome managers (with an expected long-term rate of return of approximately 5.3%).
The Company’s Plan assets, the vast majority of which relate to the U.S. Plans, are reported at fair value andclassified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The
process requires judgment and may have an effect on the placement of the Plan assets within the fair value measurement
hierarchy. The fair values of the Company’s pension Plans’ assets at December 31, 2022 and 2021 by asset category are
as follows (refer to Note 5 for definitions of Level 1, 2 and 3 inputs):

Equity securities consist primarily of publicly traded U.S. and non-U.S. equities. Publicly traded securities arevalued at the last trade or closing price reported in the active market in which the individual securities are traded.
Certain equity securities held in commingled funds are valued at unitized net asset value (“NAV”) based on the fairvalue of the underlying net assets owned by the funds. Alternative investment funds include investments in hedge funds
including fund of fund products.
Fixed income securities consist primarily of government securities and corporate bonds. They are valued at theclosing price in the active market or at quotes obtained from brokers/dealers or pricing services. Certain fixed income
securities held within commingled funds are valued based on the fair value of the underlying net assets of the funds, as
determined by the custodian of the funds.
The Level 2 pension plan assets are comprised primarily of pooled funds valued using published prices based off ofobservable market data.
The Level 3 pension plan assets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 included in the table above consist primarily ofcontracts with insurance companies related to certain foreign plans. The insurance contracts generally include
guarantees in accordance with the policy purchased. Our valuation of Level 3 assets is based on insurance company or
third-party actuarial valuations, representing an estimation of the surrender or market values of the insurance contract
between the Company and the insurance companies. The following table sets forth a summary of changes of the fairvalue of the Level 3 pension plan assets for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021:

Certain foreign subsidiaries of the Company offer certain benefits under local statutory plans which are excluded
from the tables above. The net liability for such plans was $15.6 and $16.6 as of December 31, 2022 and 2021,
respectively, the majority of which is included within Accrued pension and postretirement benefit obligations in theaccompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.

83Other Postretirement Benefit Plans
The Company maintains self-insurance programs for that portion of its health care and workers compensation costs
not covered by insurance. The Company also provides certain health care and life insurance benefits to certain eligible
retirees in the U.S. through postretirement benefit (“OPEB”) programs. The Company’s share of the cost of such plans
for most participants is fixed, and any increase in the cost of such plans will be the responsibility of the retirees. The
Company funds the benefit costs for such plans on a pay-as-you-go basis. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the total
liability associated with postretirement benefit obligations was approximately $4.3 and $6.0, respectively, the majorityof which is included in Accrued pension and postretirement benefit obligations on the accompanying Consolidated
Balance Sheets. The weighted average discount rate used to determine the projected benefit obligation as ofDecember 31, 2022 and 2021 was 5.22% and 2.75%, respectively. Net postretirement benefit expense on theaccompanying Consolidated Statements of Income was not material for each of the years ended December 31, 2022,
2021 and 2020. Since the Company’s obligation for postretirement medical plans is fixed and since the benefit
obligation and the net postretirement benefit expense are not material in relation to the Company’s financial condition or
results of operations, the Company believes any change in medical costs from that estimated will not have a significant
impact on the Company.
Defined Contribution Plans
The Company offers various defined contribution plans for certain U.S. and foreign employees. Participation inthese plans is based on certain eligibility requirements. The Company matches employee contributions to the U.S.
defined contribution plans up to a maximum of 6% of eligible compensation. The Company provided matching
contributions to the U.S. defined contribution plans of approximately $18.0, $16.2 and $13.3 in 2022, 2021 and 2020,
respectively. Effective January 1, 2023, the Company increased its matching of employee contributions to the U.S.
defined contribution plans to a maximum of 7% of eligible compensation.
Note 10—Leases
Operating Leases
For the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, total operating lease cost was $121.4, $118.2, and $98.7,
respectively, which include an immaterial amount of variable lease cost, and is recorded in Cost of sales and Selling,
general and administrative expenses, dependent on the nature of the leased asset. Other than variable lease cost,
operating lease cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The following summarizes (i) the future
minimum undiscounted lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases for each of the next five years andthereafter, incorporating the practical expedient to account for lease and non-lease components as a single lease
component for our existing real estate leases and (ii) a reconciliation of the undiscounted lease payments to the present
value of the lease liabilities recognized, all as of December 31, 2022:

Ourlease agreements generally do not include residual value guarantees nor do we enter into sublease arrangements withexternal parties.
Finance Leases
In rare circumstances, the Company may enter into finance leases for specific equipment used in manufacturing, inwhich the Company takes ownership of the asset upon the end of the lease. The Company records its finance leases
within Property, plant and equipment, net, Current portion of long-term debt and Long-term debt on the accompanying
Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company’s finance leases and related depreciation and interest expense, cash flows
and impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements were not material individually or in the aggregate as ofand for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020.
Note 11—Acquisitions
2022 Acquisitions
During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company completed two acquisitions for approximately $288.2, netof cash acquired. The acquisitions were funded through a combination of borrowings under the U.S. Commercial Paper
Program and cash on hand. One acquisition has been included in the Harsh Environment Solutions segment, while theother acquisition has been included in the Interconnect and Sensor Systems segment. While the current purchase priceallocation is based on preliminary assessments made by management as of December 31, 2022, the Company is in theprocess of completing its analyses of the allocation of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The
Company anticipates that the final assessments of values for these acquisitions will not differ materially from thepreliminary assessments. The operating results of the 2022 acquisitions have been included in the Consolidated
Statements of Income for the year ended December 31, 2022, since their respective dates of acquisition. Pro forma
financial information, as well as further details regarding the purchase price allocation related to these acquisitions, havenot been presented, since these acquisitions were not material, either individually or in the aggregate, to the Company’s
financial results.

2021 Acquisitions
During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company completed seven acquisitions for $2,225.4, net of cash
acquired, while also completing the divestiture of the Divested MTS business, as discussed below. One of theacquisitions was included in the Harsh Environment Solutions segment, three acquisitions were included in theCommunications Solutions segment, and three acquisitions were included in the Interconnect and Sensor Systems
segment. The Company completed the acquisition accounting, including the analyses of the fair value of the assets
acquired and liabilities assumed, for all of its 2021 acquisitions, and each of the final assessment of values did not differ
materially from their previous preliminary assessments. The operating results of the 2021 acquisitions were included in
the Consolidated Statements of Income since their respective dates of acquisition. Pro forma financial information, as
well as further details regarding the purchase price allocation related to these acquisitions, was not presented, since theseacquisitions were not material, either individually or in the aggregate, to the Company’s financial results.
Acquisition of MTS Systems Corporation
On December 9, 2020, Amphenol announced that the Company entered into a definitive agreement under which
Amphenol would acquire MTS Systems Corporation (Nasdaq: MTSC) (“MTS”) for $58.50 per share in cash. MTS, aleading global supplier of precision sensors, advanced test systems and motion simulators, was historically organized
into two business segments: Sensors (“MTS Sensors”) and Test & Simulation (“MTS T&S”). The MTS Sensors
business provides the Company with a highly complementary offering of high-technology, harsh environment sensors
sold into diverse end markets and applications. The MTS Sensors business further expands the Company’s range ofsensor and sensor-based products across a wide array of industries and is reported as part of our continuing operations
and within our Interconnect and Sensor Systems segment. On January 19, 2021 and prior to the closing of the MTS
acquisition, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell MTS (including the MTS T&S business, but
excluding the MTS Sensors business) to Illinois Tool Works Inc. (“ITW”). Throughout this Annual Report, we refer to
MTS (including the MTS T&S business, but excluding the MTS Sensors business) as the “Divested MTS business”.
On April 7, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of MTS for a total enterprise value of approximately$1,700, net of cash acquired and including the repayment of all outstanding debt and certain liabilities. The MTS
acquisition was funded through a combination of borrowings under the U.S. Commercial Paper Program and cash on
hand. At closing, the Company paid approximately $1,300, net of cash acquired, for 100% of the common stock of
MTS, including certain liabilities settled at closing, which was reflected within Net cash used in investing activities fromcontinuing operations in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow for the year ended December 31,
2021. In addition, the Company also assumed MTS’s then-outstanding $350.0 principal amount of senior notes due
August 15, 2027. Shortly after the closing, the Company repaid and settled the MTS senior notes for approximately$387.3, which included accrued interest and a make-whole premium incurred as a result of the early extinguishment of
the senior notes. The repayment of the outstanding senior notes, including the make-whole premium and excludinginterest, was reflected within Net cash used in financing activities from continuing operations in the accompanying
Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow for the year ended December 31, 2021. On December 1, 2021, the Company
completed the sale of the Divested MTS business to ITW for approximately $750, net of cash divested and excluding
related transaction fees and expenses. After giving effect to the sale of the Divested MTS business as well as therepayment of the aforementioned MTS senior notes as part of the MTS acquisition, the Company paid approximately$950, net of cash acquired and excluding related transaction fees and expenses, for the retained MTS Sensors business.
Refer to “Presentation and Sale of the Divested MTS Business” section below for further details related to theCompany’s discontinued operations and the completed divestiture of the Divested MTS business.
The purchase price allocation for the MTS Sensors business was performed separately from the Divested MTS
business, the latter of which was accounted for as discontinued operations and whose assets acquired, including
associated goodwill, and liabilities assumed were reported as current assets held for sale and current liabilities held forsale on the Company’s balance sheet. As a result of the sale of the Divested MTS business on December 1, 2021, theCompany completed the acquisition accounting associated with the Divested MTS business and the associated current
assets held for sale and current liabilities held for sale are no longer reported on the Company’s Consolidated Balance
Sheets as of December 31, 2021.

86

The retained MTS Sensors business is reported within our Interconnect and Sensor Systems segment. In 2022, theCompany completed its analysis of the purchase price allocation of the fair value of the tangible and identifiableintangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as part of the acquisition accounting associated with the MTS Sensors
business. The final assessment of values for the MTS Sensors business did not differ materially from previous
preliminary assessments. The MTS acquisition resulted in the recognition of $738.7 of goodwill, $54.0 of indefinitelived tradename intangible assets and $178.2 of definite-lived intangible assets, each associated with the MTS Sensors
business. The definite-lived intangible assets are comprised of customer relationships, proprietary technology, andbacklog of $122.9, $39.1 and $16.2, respectively, and are amortized based upon the underlying pattern of economic
benefit with weighted average useful lives of 11 years, 15 years and 0.25 years, respectively. Other than these intangible
assets, the remainder of the purchase price has been allocated to other identifiable assets acquired and liabilities
assumed. As part of acquisition accounting, the Company also recorded $47.0 of deferred tax liabilities associated withcertain basis differences, the majority of which the Company recognized for tax purposes and paid in the fourth quarterof 2021 upon the sale of the Divested MTS business. The excess purchase price over the fair value of the underlying
assets acquired (net of liabilities assumed) was allocated to goodwill, which primarily represents the value of assembled
workforce and the anticipated cost savings and efficiencies associated with the integration of the MTS Sensors business,along with other intangible assets acquired that do not qualify for separate recognition. The Company does not expect
any such recognized goodwill associated with the acquisition of the MTS Sensors business to be deductible for tax
purposes. The operating results for the MTS Sensors business have been included within continuing operations in theConsolidated Statements of Income since the acquisition date of April 7, 2021, while the operating results for the
Divested MTS business were classified and reported as discontinued operations as discussed further below.
Presentation and Sale of the Divested MTS Business
On January 19, 2021 and prior to the closing of the MTS acquisition, the Company entered into a definitive
agreement to sell the Divested MTS business to ITW. As a result of the agreement to sell the Divested MTS business to
ITW, the Divested MTS business met the discontinued operations reporting criteria and “held for sale” accounting
criteria as of the MTS acquisition date of April 7, 2021, and therefore, the Company did not assign the Divested MTS
business to any of its three reportable business segments. Accordingly, since the Divested MTS business has never been
nor was expected to ever be considered part of our continuing operations, the Company accounted for the operating
results and related cash flows associated with the Divested MTS business as discontinued operations in theaccompanying Consolidated Statements of Income and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow, respectively, as of the
MTS acquisition date through December 1, 2021, the date of the sale of the Divested MTS business. For the year ended
December 31, 2021, the comprehensive income associated with discontinued operations was not material and was notpresented separately in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The Company also ceased recording
depreciation and amortization on the held for sale assets as of the MTS acquisition date.
In 2021, the assets and liabilities associated with the Divested MTS business were presented as current assets held
for sale and current liabilities held for sale, respectively, on the Company’s balance sheet throughout the period in which
Amphenol owned the business. As discussed above, the purchase price allocation associated with the Divested MTS
business was performed separately from the MTS Sensors business, as the Divested MTS business met the “held forsale” accounting criteria. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed resulting from the purchase price allocation for the
Divested MTS business were measured and recorded at fair value less costs to sell, which was considered a Level 3 fairvalue measurement based on the transaction’s then-expected consideration. Such assets acquired and liabilities assumed
were recorded as current assets held for sale and current liabilities held for sale, as separate single line items on the
Company’s balance sheet as of the MTS acquisition date through December 1, 2021, the date of the sale of the Divested
MTS business. At each reporting period in 2021, the Company reassessed the fair value of these assets held for sale andliabilities held for sale and noted that the carrying value of the disposal group did not exceed its fair value less costs tosell. In addition, the Company assumed a $28.7 contingent consideration liability from the MTS acquisition, which wasrecognized at fair value as part of acquisition accounting. This contingent consideration was recorded within current
liabilities held for sale on the Company’s balance sheet as of the acquisition date. During the third quarter of 2021, theCompany made a capital contribution to the Divested MTS business, which in turn used the funding to settle thecontingent consideration.

87

On December 1, 2021, the Company completed the sale of the Divested MTS business to ITW for approximately$750, net of cash divested and excluding related transaction fees and expenses. The proceeds from the sale of theDivested MTS business were included in Net cash provided by investing activities from discontinued operations in theConsolidated Statements of Cash Flow for the year ended December 31, 2021. Amphenol has had no continuing
involvement with the Divested MTS business after the completion of the sale. At December 31, 2021, there were no
assets held for sale nor liabilities held for sale on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, as a result of the sale of the Divested
MTS business in December 2021. In addition, there were no material adjustments to previously reported balances
associated with the assets held for sale and liabilities held for sale. The sale of the Divested MTS business did not resultin any significant gain or loss recorded to discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Income for the year
ended December 31, 2021.
Acquisition of Halo Technology Limited
On December 1, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of approximately 97% of the common stock of Halo
Technology Limited (“Halo”) for a purchase price of approximately $694, net of cash acquired. The sellers retained anoncontrolling interest of less than 3% in Halo, which includes redeemable features that are outside the control of theCompany and therefore, has been classified as temporary equity on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31,
2022 and 2021, as discussed in more detail in Notes 1 and 5 herein. The acquisition was funded with cash on hand.
Halo, which is headquartered in the United States (California), is a leading provider of active and passive fiber optic
interconnect components, with product offerings that are highly complementary to our existing high-speed and fiber
optic interconnect solutions for the communications infrastructure markets. The Company completed the acquisition
accounting related to the Halo acquisition, specifically associated with the purchase price allocation of the fair value ofthe tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities and noncontrolling interest assumed. The final
assessment of values for the Halo acquisition did not differ materially from previous preliminary assessments. As of
December 31, 2022, the Halo acquisition resulted in the recognition of $522.1 of goodwill, $29.0 of indefinite-lived
tradename intangible assets and $168.0 of definite-lived intangible assets. The definite-lived intangible assets arecomprised of customer relationships, proprietary technology, and backlog of $44.0, $115.0 and $9.0, respectively, andare amortized based upon the underlying pattern of economic benefit with weighted average useful lives of 13 years, 15
years and one month, respectively. Other than these intangible assets, the remainder of the purchase price has been
allocated to other identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and noncontrolling interests (including redeemablenoncontrolling interests) assumed. As part of acquisition accounting, the excess purchase price over the fair value of theunderlying assets acquired (net of liabilities and noncontrolling interests assumed) was allocated to goodwill, whichprimarily represents the value of assembled workforce and the anticipated cost savings and efficiencies associated with
the integration of Halo, along with other intangible assets acquired that do not qualify for separate recognition. The
Company does not expect any such recognized goodwill associated with the Halo acquisition to be deductible for tax
purposes. The operating results for Halo have been included in the Consolidated Statements of Income since theacquisition date. The acquisition of Halo, which is reported within our Communications Solutions segment, was notmaterial to the Company’s financial results.
2020 Acquisitions
During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company completed two acquisitions for $50.4, net of cash
acquired. One of the acquisitions was included in the Harsh Environment Solutions segment, and the other acquisition
was included in the Interconnect and Sensor Systems segment. The Company completed the acquisition accounting,including the analyses of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, for both 2020 acquisitions, and thefinal assessments of values did not differ materially from the previous preliminary assessments. Pro forma financial
information, as well as further details regarding the purchase price allocation related to these acquisitions, was notpresented, since these acquisitions were not material, either individually or in the aggregate, to the Company’s financial
results.
Acquisition-related Expenses
In 2022, the Company incurred $21.5 ($18.4 after-tax) of acquisition-related expenses, comprised primarily of theamortization of $12.0 related to the value associated with acquired backlog resulting from the acquisitions that closed in
2022, along with external transaction costs. In 2021, the Company incurred $70.4 ($57.3 after-tax) of acquisition-related
expenses, comprised primarily of transaction, severance, restructuring and certain non-cash purchase accounting costs
related to the MTS acquisition in the second quarter of 2021, along with external transaction costs and certain non-cash

88purchase accounting costs related to the Halo acquisition in the fourth quarter of 2021. In 2020, the Company incurred
approximately $11.5 ($10.7 after-tax) of acquisition-related expenses, comprised primarily of external transaction costs
related to acquisitions that were announced or closed. Such acquisition-related expenses are presented separately in theaccompanying Consolidated Statements of Income.

acquisitions. Amortization expense for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 was approximately $81.0,$86.4 and $49.6, respectively. Amortization expense in 2022 includes $12.0 related to the amortization of acquired
backlog from the 2022 acquisitions, while amortization expense in 2021 included $16.2 and $9.0 related to theamortization of acquired backlog resulting from the MTS and Halo acquisitions, respectively. As of December 31, 2022,
amortization expense relating to the Company’s current intangible assets estimated for each of the next five fiscal years
is approximately $69.1 in 2023, $63.8 in 2024, $54.5 in 2025, $52.8 in 2026, and $46.0 in 2027.
Note 13—Reportable Business Segments and International Operations
Effective January 1, 2022, the Company aligned its businesses into three newly formed reportable businesssegments: (i) Harsh Environment Solutions, (ii) Communications Solutions and (iii) Interconnect and Sensor Systems.
This new alignment replaced our historic reportable business segments. All businesses previously reported in theInterconnect Products and Assemblies segment have been aligned with one of the three newly formed segments. All
businesses previously reported in the Cable Products and Solutions segment have been aligned with our newly formed
Communications Solutions segment. This segment structure reflects (i) the manner in which the Chief Operating
Decision Maker (“CODM”), who is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, regularly assesses information for decisionmaking purposes, including the allocation of resources, and (ii) how the Company operates its businesses, assesses
performance, and communicates results and strategy, among other items, to the Board and its stockholders. In
conjunction with the new alignment of our business, the Company appointed three new segment managers to lead their89

respective reportable business segments, each reporting directly to the Chief Executive Officer. The Company organizes
its reportable business segments based on the manner in which management evaluates the performance of the Company,
combined with the nature of the individual business activities and the product-based solutions offered.
The following are the Company’s three reportable business segments:•••

Harsh Environment Solutions – the Harsh Environment Solutions segment designs, manufactures andmarkets a broad range of ruggedized interconnect products, including connectors and interconnect systems,
printed circuits and printed circuit assemblies and other products for use in the industrial, military,commercial aerospace, automotive, mobile networks and information technology and data communications
end markets.
Communications Solutions – the Communications Solutions segment designs, manufactures and markets a
broad range of connector and interconnect systems, including high speed, radio frequency, power, fiber
optic and other products, together with antennas, for use in the information technology and data
communications, mobile devices, industrial, mobile networks, broadband communications, automotive,commercial aerospace and military end markets.
Interconnect and Sensor Systems – the Interconnect and Sensor Systems segment designs, manufactures andmarkets a broad range of sensors, sensor-based systems, connectors and value-add interconnect systems
used in the automotive, industrial, information technology and data communications, mobile networks,
military and commercial aerospace end markets.

The Company has recast all relevant prior year period segment information in order to enable year-over-year
segment comparisons in this Annual Report. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those for theCompany as a whole, as described in Note 1 herein. The Company evaluates the performance of the segments andallocates resources to each of them based on, among other things, profit or loss from operations before certain corporate
and other related items such as interest, stock-based compensation expense, income taxes, amortization related to certain
intangible assets and nonrecurring gains and losses. The Company also incurs general corporate expenses and costs
which are not allocated to the reportable business segments, but have been included in “Corporate / Other” in thefollowing tables for reconciliation purposes. Assets are reviewed by the CODM on a consolidated basis and therefore
are not presented by reportable business segment.
Net sales by segment for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 are as follows:

Net sales by geographic area are based on the customer location to which the product is shipped. No single
customer accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s net sales during either of the years ended December 31, 2022
and 2021. During the year ended December 31, 2020, aggregate sales to the Company’s largest customer accounted forapproximately 11% of the Company’s net sales, nearly all of the sales of which were reported within our
Communications Solutions segment. It is impracticable to disclose net sales by product or group of products. For
further discussion related to the Company’s policies surrounding revenue recognition, refer to Note 1 herein.
Note 14—Commitments and Contingencies
From time to time, the Company has been threatened with, or named as a defendant in, various legal or regulatory
actions in the ordinary course of business. The Company records a loss contingency liability when a loss is considered
probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Although the potential liability with respect to certain of such
legal or regulatory actions cannot be reasonably estimated, none of such matters is expected to have a material adverse
effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The Company’s legal costs associatedwith defending itself are recorded to expense as incurred.
In August 2018, the Company received a subpoena from the U.S. Department of Defense, Office of the Inspector
General (the “OIG”), requesting documents from certain of the Company’s Military and Aerospace businesses pertaining
to certain products that are purchased or used by the U.S. government. As of the date of this filing, the Company has
responded to several production requests from the OIG, with the most recent being completed during the third quarter of92

2021. In connection with this investigation, during the third quarter of 2022, in a meeting with representatives of the
U.S. government, it was alleged that the Company likely violated various provisions of federal law, including violations
under the civil False Claims Act. The alleged violations relate to various Company actions and inactions that occurredprior to and surrounding the several “stop shipment” orders regarding certain military connector products that werereceived by the Company in March 2016 and lifted by the U.S. government for all affected products over a period from
April 2016 through January 2017. The Company is currently evaluating these allegations, and continues tocommunicate and cooperate with the U.S. government on this ongoing matter. The Company is currently unable toestimate the timing or outcome of this matter.
From December 2019 through October 2020, the Company was named as one of several defendants in four separate
lawsuits filed in the State of Indiana. The lawsuits relate to a manufacturing site in Franklin, Indiana (the “Site”) where
the Company has been conducting an environmental clean-up effort under the direction of the United States
Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”). The Site was shut down in 1983, more than three years before theCompany acquired the Site as part of a larger acquisition that led to the establishment of the Company’s business in1987 (the “Acquisition”). In connection with the Acquisition, the Company agreed, and has continued, to work closelywith the EPA regarding the ongoing clean-up effort at the Site, subject to an indemnity from the seller (the “Seller”). In
1989, the Company sold the property where the Site is located. The lawsuits collectively seek, among other things,
compensation for personal injuries and for past, present and future medical expenses, compensation for loss of property
values near the Site and costs related to medical monitoring for individuals living close to the Site, in each case arisingfrom alleged exposure to hazardous chemicals. The Company denies any wrongdoing and is defending each of theabove described lawsuits. All the costs incurred relating to these lawsuits have been reimbursed by the Seller based on
the Seller’s indemnification obligations entered into in connection with the Acquisition (the “1987 Indemnification
Agreement”). In addition, the environmental investigation, remediation and monitoring activities undertaken by theCompany relating to the Site have been reimbursed under the 1987 Indemnification Agreement. As a result, theCompany does not believe that the costs associated with these lawsuits or the resolution of the related environmental
matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or
cash flows.
Certain operations of the Company are subject to environmental laws and regulations that govern the discharge ofpollutants into the air and water, as well as the handling and disposal of solid and hazardous wastes. The Company
believes that its operations are currently in substantial compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations
and that the costs of continuing compliance will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition,
results of operations or cash flows.
The Company also has purchase obligations related to commitments to purchase certain goods and services. At
December 31, 2022, the Company had purchase commitments of $835.7 in 2023, $38.0 in 2024 and 2025, combined,
and $5.0 beyond 2025.

Internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability offinancial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance withaccounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Under the supervision and with theparticipation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the Company
conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting based on criteria establishedin the Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of theTreadway Commission (COSO). Based on that evaluation, management concluded that the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2022.

control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022 in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB). Those standards require that Deloitte & Touche LLP plan and perform the audit
