Return on sales ("ROS") equals segment income divided by segment net sales or, on a consolidated basis, adjusted operating income divided by tot al net sales. Continuing Operations In July 2024 we announced an agreement to sell the Thermal Management business and this divestiture was completed in January 202 5. Accordingly, the Company is reporting the results of that business as discontinued operations. All results referenced throughout this presentation are on a continuing ope rations basis unless otherwise stated. Forward - Looking Statements
