**Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities**

On June 3, 2025, Novanta Inc. (the "Company") committed to a restructuring plan (the "2025 Restructuring Plan") to streamline operations and align with long-term goals. The 2025 Restructuring Plan includes measures to regionalize manufacturing operations, expedite the closure of certain sites, streamline management structures, and implement cost-saving strategies in areas anticipated to have a minimal long-term impact on the Company's overall business performance.

The Company estimates that it will incur approximately $20 million to $25 million in pre-tax charges in connection with the 2025 Restructuring Plan, consisting of employee-related costs, third-party manufacturing moving costs, contract terminations, asset write-offs and other costs. The 2025 Restructuring Plan will commence in June 2025 and is anticipated to be substantially completed within an estimated eighteen-month period. The Company expects savings from this initiative of approximately $20 million on an annualized basis once the 2025 Restructuring Plan is completed.

The estimates of costs and expenses that the Company expects to incur in connection with the 2025 Restructuring Plan are subject to several assumptions and actual results may differ materially. The Company may also incur additional costs not currently contemplated due to events that may occur because of, or that are associated with, the 2025 Restructuring Plan.

**Safe Harbor and Forward-Looking Information** 

*This Current Report on Form 8-K contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties. All statements contained in this 8-k that do not relate to matters of historical fact should be considered forward-looking statements, and are generally identified by words such as "estimate," "expect," "believe," "future," "could," "should," "plan," "aim," and other similar expressions and include, without limitation, statements regarding the Company's restructuring plan, its expectations and estimates regarding the workforce reduction, the objectives of the restructuring plan and the timing thereof, amounts and timing of the charges, savings to be incurred in connection with the restructuring plan, and the potential impact of the restructuring plan. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected, anticipated or implied. Potential risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from expected results include, among others, whether the Company will be able to implement the restructuring program as planned, whether additional measures outside those set forth herein will need to be taken to fulfill the objectives of the restructuring plan, whether the expected amount of the costs associated with the restructuring program will differ from or exceed the Company's forecasts and whether the Company will be able to realize the full amount of estimated savings from the restructuring program or in the timeframe expected. It is not possible to predict or identify all risks and uncertainties, and additional significant risks and uncertainties are described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, and subsequent reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The reader should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are first made. Except to the extent required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly release any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof, or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.*
