ENPRO

# 2022 HIGHLIGHTS

Since 2019, we have sharpened our focus on our most profitable, fastest-growing businesses within our Sealing Technologies and Advanced Surface Technologies segments, with a number of acquisitions and divestitures, solidifying our position as a dynamic industrial technology company while encouraging our colleagues to “Empower Technology with Purpose.”

Completed the divestiture portion of Enpro’s portfolio reshaping efforts with the exit of the remaining businesses in our Engineered Materials segment, GGB in November 2022 and Garlock Pipeline Technologies (GPT) in January 2023, which eliminated our automotive exposure and further reduced our participation in the oil & gas market.

Navigated profitably through extraordinary inflationary pressures and supply chain constraints, using effective pricing strategies and flexible sourcing processes globally to meet customer needs, while advancing productivity and simplifying operations across Enpro.

Achieved strong revenue growth, profitability and cash flow amidst macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty. Organic revenue growth of more than 14% in 2022 was driven by strong demand across our major end markets; adjusted EBITDA margin expanded more than 400 basis points to 23.4%.

Continued execution on our long-term organic growth strategies across both the Sealing and Advanced Surface Technologies segments.

Furthered environmental efforts with the adoption of a new Environmental Sustainability Policy, establishing baselines by measuring resource usage at each of the company’s primary manufacturing facilities.

Our enduring values of Safety, Excellence & Respect continue to be cultural cornerstones for our colleagues, encouraging them to practice physical and psychological safety, open and creative communication and applied engineering and technology excellence as they continue delivering differentiated value to our customers.

We strive to foster an inclusive environment where all employees can flourish in our culture where human development is viewed as being equally important to financial results. While this has always been evident in our actions, sustainability is now explicitly hallmarked in our values.

Provided supervisors and managers Diversity Without Division training, offering enhanced tools and processes to create an inclusive environment for all of our teams. We plan to implement this program further into the organization in 2023.

Diversity in our workforce is critical to our success. We continue to incorporate inclusive practices in talent acquisition, such as requiring diverse candidate slates and diverse interview panels, while implementing tools and structures to reduce bias during the interview and selection process. At 2022 year-end, more than 40% of our colleagues, three senior levels into the company, were diverse by gender and/or ethnicity.

# Fellow Shareholders

I reflect on my first full year as President and Chief Executive Officer of Enpro with tremendous gratitude for our colleagues who executed well on many initiatives that drove outstanding commercial and financial results. We further advanced our strategy in building the highly profitable foundation upon which we will drive future growth.

President and Chief Executive Officer

As we enter 2023, a year of execution, our organization is in a terrific position. Our existing businesses are pivoting to the compelling organic growth opportunities that will drive future growth, especially as the divestiture portion of our portfolio optimization strategy has been completed, following the sales of the remaining businesses in the Engineered Materials segment announced in the fourth quarter of 2022. We will maintain and grow our technological capabilities and our leading market positions. Today, Enpro's portfolio of businesses leans toward faster-growing end markets with higher profitability and cash flow returns. With ample balance sheet capacity entering 2023, the company has never been in a stronger position.

Our achievements in 2022 were many, and I am incredibly proud of the resilience of the Enpro team as macroeconomic and geopolitical issues created many uncertainties in our operating environments. With these challenges in the background, we still delivered on our strategic and financial imperatives, while caring for one another's safety and well-being and remaining focused on the collective goals of all of our stakeholders. We maintain our three priorities of enterprise-level profitable growth, professional and personal development for our colleagues, and stewardship of the environment in the diverse communities within which we operate.

2022 ANNUAL REPORT | 2 | ENPRO INDUSTRIES, INC.

In 2022, organic sales grew more than 14% to $1.10 billion. Demand in many of our end markets was consistently strong, despite a difficult inflationary environment and geopolitical variables beyond our control. Our portfolio reshaping actions, along with firm demand in most of our major end markets, led to record profitability. As we look forward, we see opportunities to invest to drive long-term organic revenue growth, maintain, or expand margins, and selectively pursue acquisitions with our strong balance sheet and reliable free cash flow.

We advanced our portfolio optimization strategy with the exit of the remaining businesses in the Engineered Materials segment and recast our financial results to reflect the segment as a discontinued operation. Specifically, we completed the divestitures of GGB in November 2022 and GPT in January 2023. As a result of our portfolio reshaping strategy, a greater percentage of our revenue is from North America, including 70% of our revenue in 2022. We also increased our aftermarket or recurring revenue exposure to more than 50% of our total business.

We continued down the path of integrating NxEdge, acquired in December 2021, into our organization and, despite some cyclical variability expected in the semiconductor market in 2023, we are optimistic about our long-term growth opportunities as our strategies to drive organic revenue growth throughout the Advanced Surface Technologies segment are compelling and differentiated.

We enter 2023 with a leverage ratio of 1.8x. Our businesses are cash-generative, and total company profitability is at the highest level in our 20-year history. We continue to identify opportunities for organic growth while building our M&A pipeline with opportunities that meet our strategic and financial objectives. Finally, our current plan is to continue steady increases in our dividend over time as we pursue our balanced capital allocation strategy.

2022 ANNUAL REPORT | 3 | ENPRO INDUSTRIES, INC.

## Enpro's Purpose and Way of Working

At Enpro, we Empower Technology with Purpose. We will continue building our company into one that delivers outstanding financial results by providing products and solutions that enable the safeguarding of critical environments across many growing end markets with our differentiated technologies and applied engineering capabilities. We will also continue providing platforms for our employees and other stakeholders to learn, challenge and develop. Honoring our values of Safety, Excellence, and Respect, we believe diversity of people, and of thought, advance these priorities as we maintain our commitments to the communities we serve and contribute to a sustainable future.

We made great strides in integrating Enpro's Environmental, Social & Governance priorities into the way we work. In 2022, we measured our resource usage across all primary manufacturing sites to determine baselines and implement organized processes in an effort to reduce our emissions footprint over time. We plan to show steady improvements in our resource usage over time and report back to all stakeholders on our progress. We will continue our focus on reducing waste and increasing recycling, with several facilities in our system considered 'zero landfill.' Our teams continue to find ways to appropriately reduce our resource utilization, while delivering innovative products and solutions to our customers.

We have always celebrated the diversity of colleagues and have a vibrant community. In 2023, we are enhancing recruitment and talent acquisition processes to drive continued success in this important area across the company. More than 40% of senior-level colleagues three levels into the organization are diverse by gender and/or ethnicity and we are well on our way to show further progress, while encouraging both physical and psychological safety across the organization.

**2022 was an outstanding year for Enpro. I would like to again thank our colleagues for their hard work and all of our shareholders and other stakeholders for their support as we drive our enduring, value-creating strategy forward.**

With gratitude,

President & Chief Executive Officer

## PART I

### ITEM 1. BUSINESS

As used in this report, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “EnPro” and “Company” mean EnPro Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries (unless the context indicates another meaning). The term “common stock” means the common stock of EnPro Industries, Inc., par value $0.01 per share.

#### *Background*

We were incorporated under the laws of the State of North Carolina on January 11, 2002, as a wholly owned subsidiary of Goodrich Corporation (“Goodrich”). The incorporation was in anticipation of Goodrich’s announced distribution of its Engineered Industrial Products segment to existing Goodrich shareholders. The distribution took place on May 31, 2002.

Today, we are a leading-edge industrial technology company focused on critical applications across a diverse group of growing end markets such as semiconductor, photonics, industrial process, aerospace, food, biopharma and life sciences. EnPro is a leader in applied engineering and designs, develops, manufactures, and markets proprietary, value-added products and solutions that contribute key functionality or safeguard a variety of critical environments. Over the past several years, we have executed several strategic initiatives to create a portfolio of businesses that offers proprietary, industrial technology-related products and solutions with high barriers to entry, compelling margins, strong cash flow, and perpetual recurring/aftermarket revenue in markets with favorable secular tailwinds. These initiatives, described in “Acquisitions” and “Dispositions” below, have increased our ability to provide solutions to the semiconductor, life sciences, and other technology industries. As of December 31, 2022, our continuing operations had 13 primary manufacturing and service facilities (approximately 50,000 square feet or larger) located in 6 countries, including the United States.

Our sales from continuing operations by geographic region in 2022, 2021 and 2020 were as follows:

|  | 2022 | 2021 | 2020 |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
|  | (in millions) |  |  |
| United States | $687.4 | $445.7 | $477.7 |
| Europe | 139.7 | 132.7 | 117.5 |
| Other | 272.1 | 262.0 | 204.8 |
| Total | $1,099.2 | $840.4 | $800.0 |

We maintain an Internet website at www.enproindustries.com. We will make this annual report, in addition to our other annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and amendments to these reports, available free of charge on our website as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file such material with, or furnish it to, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Our Corporate Governance Guidelines and the charters for each of our Board Committees (Audit and Risk Management, Compensation and Human Resources, Executive, and Nominating and Corporate Governance committees) are also available on our website, and copies of this information are available in print to any shareholder who requests it. Information included on or linked to our website is not incorporated by reference into this annual report.

#### *Acquisitions*

On December 17, 2021, our direct, wholly owned subsidiary, EnPro Holdings, Inc. (“EnPro Holdings”), completed the acquisition of all issued and outstanding membership interests of TCFII NxEdge LLC (“NxEdge”). NxEdge is headquartered in Boise, Idaho and operates six main facilities located in California and Idaho. NxEdge is an advanced manufacturing, cleaning, coating, and refurbishment business serving the semiconductor industry. NxEdge produces and services components used in advanced nodes (<14nm) for leading-edge semiconductor processes, offers technically advanced coatings and surface treatments along with refurbishment services and spare parts. NxEdge is included as part of our Advanced Surface Technologies segment. We paid $853.9 million, net of cash acquired, for the business.

On October 26, 2020, a subsidiary of EnPro formed for this purpose (the “Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary”) acquired all of the equity securities of Alluxa, Inc. (“Alluxa”), a privately held, California-based company. Alluxa is an industrial technology company that provides specialized optical filters and thin-film coatings for the most challenging applications in the industrial technology, life sciences, semiconductor, defense, and communications markets. Alluxa’s products are developed through a

1

proprietary coating process using state-of-the-art advanced equipment. Alluxa is included as part of the Advanced Surface Technologies segment.

Alluxa works in collaboration with customers across major end markets to provide customized, complex precision coating solutions through its specialized technology platform and proprietary processes. Alluxa has long-standing customer relationships across its diversified customer base, serving customers across the Americas, Europe, and Asia. Founded in 2007, Alluxa has two locations in California and is headquartered in Santa Rosa, California.

The cash purchase price of Alluxa was $238.4 million, net of cash acquired. We funded the purchase with available cash and rollover equity from Alluxa executives. In connection with the completion of the transaction, we entered into a limited liability operating agreement with respect to the Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary in connection with the rollover transaction, with three equity owners of Alluxa, who were also executives of Alluxa, receiving approximately 7% of the equity interests of the Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary in return for their contribution of the rollover shares of Alluxa.

In September 2019, Lunar Investment LLC ('Lunar'), a subsidiary of EnPro, acquired all of the equity securities of LeanTeq Co, LTD. and its affiliate LeanTeq LLC (collectively referred to as 'LeanTeq'). As part of the transaction, two of the equity owners of LeanTeq, who were executives of the acquired entity (the 'LeanTeq Executives'), acquired approximately a 10% ownership share of Lunar in the form of rollover equity. Founded in 2011 and headquartered in Taoyuan City, Taiwan, LeanTeq has two locations in Taiwan and one in the United States (Silicon Valley). LeanTeq primarily provides refurbishment solutions for critical components and assemblies used in state-of-the-art semiconductor manufacturing equipment. This equipment is used to produce technologically advanced microchips for smartphones, autonomous vehicles, high-speed wireless connectivity, artificial intelligence, and other leading-edge applications. LeanTeq partners closely with original equipment manufacturers throughout the development and production lifecycle to achieve Process of Record qualifications, enabling long-term, recurring aftermarket revenue. Aftermarket refurbishment solutions have historically represented approximately 65% of LeanTeq's total sales. LeanTeq's suite of solutions includes cleaning, coating, analytical testing, inspection and verification, kit assembly, failure analysis, and other value-added solutions. LeanTeq is included as part of our Advanced Surface Technologies segment. During the fourth quarter of 2022, EnPro acquired all the shares of Lunar owned by the LeanTeq Executives and became sole owner of LeanTeq.

### *Dispositions*

During the third quarter of 2022, we entered into an agreement to sell our GGB business and announced our intention to sell Garlock Pipeline Technologies, Inc. (GPT). These businesses, along with Compressor Products International (CPI), which was divested on December 21, 2021, comprised our entire Engineered Materials segment ('Engineered Materials'). As a result of classifying the GGB and GPT businesses as held for sale in the third quarter of 2022, we determined Engineered Materials to be a discontinued operation. Unless otherwise indicated, amounts provided in Part I pertain to continuing operations only (see Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-K for information on discontinued operations and the related disposition of those operations).

The sale of GGB closed on November 4, 2022 to The Timken Company for total proceeds of $305 million, subject to closing date purchase price adjustments. The pre-tax gain on the disposition of GGB recognized in the fourth quarter of 2022 was $189.1 million.

The sale of GGB included a subsidiary of our Sealing Technologies segment which is not part of the discontinued operations described above. The results of operations of this subsidiary are included in continuing operations for all periods being reported. As a result of this sale, we recorded a $0.4 million loss in the fourth quarter of 2022 in other expense in our consolidated statement of operations.

During January 2023 we completed the sale of our GPT business for approximately $31 million resulting in a pretax gain of approximately $14 million to be recorded in the first quarter of 2023. Net cash proceeds after selling expenses was approximately $28 million.

On October 12, 2021, we entered into an Equity and Asset Purchase Agreement (the 'Purchase Agreement') providing for the sale of specified equity interests and assets of our Compressor Products International business ('CPI Business'), which had been included in our Engineered Materials segment. The sale closed on December 21, 2021 and we recorded a pretax gain of $117.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2021 as a result of this transaction.

In September 2, 2021, we sold certain assets and liabilities of our polymer components business unit, which was principally located in Houston, Texas and had been included in our Sealing Technologies segment. As a result of the sale, we recorded a pre-tax gain of $19.5 million in other income (expense) on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

2

On December 31, 2020, we sold the shares of Technetics Group UK Limited ('Technetics Group UK'), a manufacturer of elastomeric components primarily for use in the aerospace industry, which had been included in our Sealing Technologies segment, for a nominal cash purchase price. As part of the agreement with the buyer, we delivered to the buyer £148,000 of cash to fund value added tax ('VAT') payments due for VAT liabilities already incurred and £50,000 for working capital. We incurred a loss upon the sale of approximately £976,000 ($1.3 million).

On November 20, 2020, we completed the sale of the Air Springs portion of our heavy-duty trucking business for $23.1 million in cash, net of an estimated working capital adjustment and fees, and a long-term promissory note with a fair-value of $6.4 million (face value of $7.5 million). As part of the agreement with the buyer, we retained the U.S. accounts receivable for the business, which created a large working capital adjustment at closing. The amount of retained accounts receivable in the U.S. was approximately $8.6 million, of which approximately $2.0 million was outstanding at December 31, 2020. We recorded a $0.1 million non-cash loss on sale of this business, which had been included in our Sealing Technologies segment, in the fourth quarter of 2020. Upon the resolution of all remaining open items, we recorded an additional loss of $2.1 million in the first quarter of 2021.

In August of 2020, subsequent to announcing the exit of our Motor Wheel® brake drum and Crewson® brake adjuster brands in the second quarter of 2020, we identified a buyer and entered into a definitive agreement to sell the assets related to the businesses. On September 2, 2020, we completed the sale for $8.9 million, net of transaction fees. This transaction resulted in a $3.1 million loss on sale of the business in other non-operating expense on our consolidated statements of operations, composed of a $3.0 million non-cash loss on the sales of assets and a $0.1 million loss on other expenses. Prior to finding a buyer of the brands, we determined the assets were impaired and recorded restructuring and impairment charges of $7.4 million in other operating expenses on our consolidated statements of operations. Total losses on the exit of our Motor Wheel® brake drum and Crewson® brake adjuster brands, which had been included in our Sealing Technologies segment, recorded in 2020 were $10.5 million.

In the second quarter of 2020, we entered into an agreement to sell the Lunar® air disc brake business located in both the U.S. and in Shanghai, China. The sale of the U.S. assets of the business closed in the third quarter of 2020 for $0.3 million, resulting in a gain of $0.2 million recorded in non-operating income on our consolidated statement of operations. The sale of the Lunar® manufacturing facility located in Shanghai, China closed in the fourth quarter of 2020 for $0.9 million, resulting in no gain or loss. Prior to closing on the sale of the business, we determined the assets to be impaired and recorded a $2.1 million impairment charge, of which $1.6 million was related to impairment of long-lived assets and $0.5 million related to the impairment of inventory. The impairment of long-lived assets was recorded in other operating expense and the impairment of inventory was recorded in cost of sales on our consolidated statement of operations. Total net loss related to the exit of the Lunar® air disc brake business, which had been included in our Sealing Technologies segment, was $1.9 million.

On December 12, 2019, certain of our subsidiaries entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement with Arcline FM Holdings, LLC ('Arcline FM Holdings'), an affiliate of Arcline Investment Management, LP, pursuant to which we sold all of the outstanding equity interests in our indirect subsidiary, Fairbanks Morse, LLC ('Fairbanks Morse'), to Arcline FM Holdings and caused one of our subsidiaries to sell certain related Canadian assets to an affiliate of Arcline FM Holdings, for an aggregate sales price of $450 million. This divestiture transaction was completed on January 21, 2020. Fairbanks Morse manufactured heavy-duty, medium-speed reciprocating engines used primarily in marine and power generation applications and comprised our entire Power Systems segment. In light of the entry into the definitive agreement in December 2019 to divest Fairbanks Morse, we classified the Power Systems segment as a discontinued operation for the fourth quarter and full year 2019, and all prior quarterly and annual financial results of EnPro have been recast to reflect the Power Systems segment as a discontinued operation. We recorded a pretax gain of $274.3 million in the first quarter of 2020 as a result of this transaction.

### *Operations*

We manage our business as two segments: a Sealing Technologies segment and an Advanced Surface Technologies segment. Our reportable segments are managed separately based on differences in their respective products and solutions and end-customers. For financial information with respect to our business segments, see Item 7, 'Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Results of Operations,' and Note 19 to our Consolidated Financial Statements. Item 7 contains information about sales and profits for each segment, and Note 19 contains information about each segment's sales by major end market, capital expenditures, depreciation and amortization, and assets.

## ***Backlog***

At December 31, 2022, we had a backlog of orders of continuing operations valued at $310.7 million, of which $123.9 million related to Sealing Technologies and $186.8 million related to Advanced Surface Technologies compared with $274.7 million at December 31, 2021, of which $102.8 million related to Sealing Technologies and $171.9 million related to Advanced Surface Technologies. Approximately 7% of the December 31, 2022 backlog is expected to be filled beyond 2023. Backlog represents orders on hand we believe to be firm. However, there is no certainty the backlog orders will result in actual sales at the times or in the amounts ordered.

## ***Quality Assurance***

We believe the quality of our products and solutions is among the most important factors in developing and maintaining strong, long-term relationships with our customers. In order to meet the exacting requirements of our customers, we maintain stringent standards of quality control. We routinely employ in-process inspection by using testing equipment as a process aid during all stages of development, design and production to ensure product quality and reliability. These include state-of-the-art CAD/CAM equipment, statistical process control systems, laser tracking devices, failure mode and effect analysis, and coordinate measuring machines. We are able to extract numerical quality control data as a statistical measurement of the quality of the parts being manufactured from our Computer Numerical Control ('CNC') machinery. In addition, we perform quality control tests on parts that we outsource. As a result of our practices, we are able to significantly improve the quality of the services we provide and the parts we manufacture, avoid and reduce defects, and improve efficiency and reliability.

As of December 31, 2022, 31 of our manufacturing and service facilities were ISO 9000 certified. Three of our facilities are ISO 14001 certified.

## ***Patents, Trademarks and Other Intellectual Property***

We maintain a number of patents and trademarks issued by the U.S. and other countries relating to the name and design of our products and have granted licenses to some of these patents and trademarks. We routinely evaluate the need to protect new and existing products through the patent and trademark systems in the U.S. and other countries. We also have unpatented proprietary information, consisting of know-how and trade secrets relating to the design, manufacture and operation of our products and their use, and to certain services we perform. Except for proprietary formulations and know-how in our Advanced Surface Technologies segment, we do not consider our business as a whole to be materially dependent on any particular patent, patent right, trademark, trade secret or license granted or group of related patents, patent rights, trademarks, trade secrets or licenses granted.

In general, we are the owner of the rights to the products that we manufacture and sell. However, we also license certain intellectual property from various entities. These licenses are subject to renewal and it is possible we may not successfully renegotiate these licenses or they could be terminated in the event of a material breach. If this were to occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected.

## ***Human Capital***

As of December 31, 2022, we had approximately 3,500 employees, of which approximately 68% are in North America, 12% in Europe, and 20% in Asia Pacific.

We strive to create an environment where all employees can flourish and develop, and view human development as a basic right, and a core foundation to achieving excellence. At Enpro, development of our colleagues leads to excellence, and creates an environment that drives strong financial performance. Safety, excellence and respect are our enduring core values and are the standard by which we measure all of our actions, including how we treat our colleagues.

In 2023, we are introducing a new performance management and development process, placing emphasis on both manager engagement and employee ownership. We regularly conduct employee engagement and satisfaction surveys, including one completed in early 2023. Results from these surveys and engagement activities drive advances in senior management focus to continuously improve our culture and way of working.

**Focus on Safety and Wellbeing of our Employees.** Our core value of safety, includes physical safety on our factory floors, and also the wellness and psychological safety of all colleagues. We have worked for many years to develop a world-class safety program and culture, where the intention is that each employee goes home each day as healthy as they arrived. Our commitment to safety has resulted in our being the only public company to have been recognized on three separate occasions by EHS Today as 'America's Safest Company'. Each year, we enhance our safety culture and programs. In 2023, we are

7

implementing new safety onboarding programs so that our newest colleagues can thoroughly understand our safety culture and expectations, which is often unique from any place they have worked before.

**Competitive Pay, Benefits and Equity:** We provide comprehensive compensation and benefits programs that are designed to attract and retain colleagues - our most valuable resource. Our compensation programs include a focus on building long-term value and alignment with our stakeholders, including a significant portion of compensation at appropriate levels designed to foster a culture of ownership and alignment with our shareholders. We have improved these our benefit programs each year to meet the changing needs of our employees and their families. In the United States, this includes a company-wide minimum wage of $15 per hour, a 401k plan with above-market company match, an award-winning health and wellbeing program, flexible vacation and time off policies, enhanced employee assistance programs, paid family leave, and comprehensive healthcare benefits, as well as company-paid long-term disability, critical illness, and accident coverage.

We continue to focus on the mental wellbeing of our colleagues through company-wide resource groups that focus on mental health and inclusion, as well as through our employee assistance programs.

**Focus on Diversity and Respect.** A diverse workforce, as well as a commitment to diverse thinking, is critical to our long-term growth and success. We continue to utilize inclusive practices within our talent acquisition practices, including diverse candidate slates and diverse interview panels. We have implemented tools and structures to reduce bias during the interview and selection process, including unconscious bias training. We provided Diversity Without Division to our first line supervisors in 2022 with planned roll-out to all supervisors and managers in 2023. Our gender and ethnic/racial diversity including senior management and through two levels down is 46% diverse, a testament to our focus on creating a diverse and inclusive environment, and one with opportunity for growth and development.

The positive impact of our care, compassion and flexible programs is demonstrated by our employee retention rates. In a market with volatile turnover, our retention rates are at or above market level, in part due to our culture and progressive approach.

**Focus on the Communities and our New Employee Assistance Fund.** In 2020, we launched the Enpro Foundation to support charitable organizations in the communities where our colleagues live and work. Enpro contributed $1.5 million to the Enpro Foundation since formation in 2020 and our Foundation has made $356,000 in donations, with a special focus on charitable organizations where our colleagues are directly involved. Through our Foundation, we have created and funded an employee assistance fund, administered by a third-party specializing in this area, where we can confidentially assist employees undergoing tragedy in a way that is objective and respectful.

## ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

*In addition to the risks stated elsewhere in this annual report, set forth below are certain risk factors that we believe are material. If any of these risks occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and reputation could be harmed. You should also consider these risk factors when you read “forward-looking statements” elsewhere in this report. You can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “may,” “hope,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential” or “continue,” the negative of those terms or other comparable terms. Those forward-looking statements are only predictions and can be adversely affected if any of these risks occur.*

### Risks Related to Our Business

*Our business and some of the markets we serve are cyclical and distressed market conditions could have a material adverse effect on our business.*

The markets in which we sell our products and solutions, particularly wafer fab equipment for semiconductor manufacturing, chemical companies, petroleum refineries, heavy-duty trucking, and capital equipment are, to varying degrees, cyclical and have historically experienced periodic downturns. Prior downturns have been characterized by diminished product demand, excess manufacturing capacity and subsequent erosion of average selling prices in these markets resulting in negative effects on our net sales and results of operations. The wafer fab equipment for semiconductor manufacturing market, has historically been characterized by rapid changes in demand due to changes in electronics demand, economic conditions (both general and in the semiconductor and electronics industries), industry supply and demand, prices for semiconductors, and the ability of fabricators to manufacture increasingly complex and costly semiconductor devices. A prolonged and severe downward cycle in our markets, particularly in our semiconductor markets, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

8

# ***We face intense competition that could have a material adverse effect on our business.***

We encounter intense competition in almost all areas of our businesses. Customers for many of our products and solutions are attempting to reduce the number of vendors from which they purchase. To remain competitive, we need to invest continuously in manufacturing, marketing, customer service and support and our distribution networks. We also need to develop new products and solutions to continue to meet the needs and desires of our customers. We may not have sufficient resources to continue to make such investments or maintain our competitive position. Additionally, some of our competitors are larger than we are and have substantially greater financial resources than we do. As a result, they may be better able to withstand the effects of periodic economic downturns. Certain of our products and solutions may also experience transformation from unique branded products to undifferentiated price sensitive products and solutions. This commoditization may be accelerated by low-cost foreign competition. Changes in the replacement cycle of certain of our products and solutions, including because of improved product and service quality or improved maintenance, may affect aftermarket demand for such products and solutions. Initiatives designed to distinguish our products and solutions through superior service, continuous improvement, innovation, customer relationships, technology, new product acquisitions, bundling with key services, long-term contracts or market focus may not be effective. Pricing and other competitive pressures could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

# ***The reliance of our Advanced Surface Technologies segment on a small number of significant customers may adversely affect our financial results***

A majority of the revenues of our Advanced Surface Technologies segment are derived from manufacturing, cleaning, coating and refurbishing components used in advanced node semiconductor manufacturing equipment. Due to consolidation in the semiconductor manufacturing equipment industry, a small number of companies control a significant majority of the global production of semiconductor manufacturing equipment. As a result, the segment is dependent on certain key relationships with customers in that industry, including a customer that accounted for approximately 27% of our 2022 consolidated net sales, and the loss of the segment's relationship with that customer or other key customers or other adverse changes in the segment's relationships with those customers could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Consolidation among our customers, or a decision by any one or more of our customers to no longer outsource the type of solutions provided by our Advanced Surface Technologies segment, may further concentrate our business in a limited number of customers and expose us to increased risks relating to dependence on an even smaller number of customers.

# ***If we fail to retain the agents and distributors upon whom we rely to market our products, we may be unable to effectively market our products and our revenue and profitability may decline.***

The marketing success of many of our businesses in the U.S. and abroad depends largely upon our independent agents' and distributors' sales and service expertise and relationships with customers in our markets. Many of these agents have developed strong ties to existing and potential customers because of their detailed knowledge of our products. A loss of a significant number of these agents or distributors, or of a particular agent or distributor in a key market or with key customer relationships, could significantly inhibit our ability to effectively market our products, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

# ***Increased costs for raw materials, the termination of existing supply arrangements or other disruptions of our supply chain has had, and could continue in the future to have a material adverse effect on our business.***

The prices for most of the raw materials we purchase increased in 2022. In addition to organic changes in the prices of raw materials, the prices of some of our raw materials may increase due to supply chain limitations or the imposition (or announcement of the intended imposition) of new or increased tariffs or changes in trade laws. While we have been successful in passing along some of these higher costs, there can be no assurance we will be able to continue doing so without losing customers. Similarly, the loss of a key supplier, the unavailability of a key raw material, or other disruptions of our supply chain could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In addition, we have limited sources for certain key raw materials and other supplies.

# ***If we are unable to protect our intellectual property rights and knowledge relating to our products and services, our business and prospects may be negatively impacted.***

We believe that proprietary products, processes, and technology are important to our success. If we are unable to adequately protect our intellectual property and know-how, our business and prospects could be negatively impacted. Our efforts to protect our intellectual property through patents, trademarks, service marks, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights, confidentiality, non-compete and nondisclosure agreements and other measures may not be adequate to protect our proprietary

9

rights. Patents issued to third parties, whether before or after the issue date of our patents, could render our intellectual property less valuable. Questions as to whether our competitors' products or services infringe our intellectual property rights or whether our products and services infringe our competitors' intellectual property rights may be disputed. In addition, intellectual property rights may be unavailable, limited or difficult to enforce in some jurisdictions, which could make it easier for competitors to capture market share in those jurisdictions.

Our competitors may capture market share from us by selling products that claim to mirror the capabilities of our products or technology. Without sufficient protection nationally and internationally for our intellectual property, our competitiveness worldwide could be impaired, which would negatively impact our growth and future revenue. As a result, we may be required to spend significant resources to monitor and enforce our intellectual property rights.

# ***Failure to maintain or renew licenses to certain intellectual property rights could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.***

In general, we are the owner of the rights to the products and services that we manufacture and provide. However, we also license certain intellectual property from various entities. These licenses are subject to renewal and it is possible we may not successfully renegotiate these licenses or they could be terminated in the event of a material breach. If this were to occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected.

# ***Our products and solutions are often used in critical applications, which could expose us to potentially significant product liability, warranty and other claims and recalls. Our insurance coverage may be inadequate to cover all of our significant risks or our insurers may deny coverage of material losses we incur, which could adversely affect our profitability and overall financial condition.***

Our products and solutions are often used in critical applications in demanding environments, including in the nuclear, oil and gas, automotive, aerospace and pharmaceutical industries. Accordingly, product and service failures can have significant consequences and could result in significant product liability, warranty and other claims against us, regardless of whether our products and services caused the incident that is the subject of the claim, and we may have obligations to participate in the recall of products in which our products are components, if any of the components or services we supply prove to be defective. We endeavor to identify and obtain in established markets insurance agreements to cover certain significant risks and liabilities, though insurance against some of the risks inherent in our operations (such as insurance covering down-stream customer product recalls) is either unavailable or available only at rates or on terms that we consider excessive. Depending on competitive conditions and other factors, we endeavor to obtain contractual protection against uninsured risks from our customers, including limitations on liability and indemnification. In some cases, we are unable to obtain such contractual protections, and when we do, such contractual protection may not be as broad as we desire, may not be supported by adequate insurance maintained by the customer, or may not be fully enforceable in the jurisdictions in which our customers are located. Such insurance or contractual protection may not be sufficient or effective under all circumstances or against all hazards to which we may be subject. A successful claim or product recall for which we are not insured or for which we are underinsured could have a material adverse effect on us. Additionally, disputes with insurance carriers over coverage may affect the timing of cash flows and, if litigation with the carrier becomes necessary, an outcome unfavorable to us may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

# ***Our business may be adversely affected by information technology disruptions.***

Our business may be impacted by information technology disruptions, including information technology attacks. Cybersecurity attacks, in particular, are evolving and include, but are not limited to, malicious software, attempts to gain unauthorized access to data or corporate funds, and other electronic security breaches that could lead to disruptions in systems, unauthorized release of confidential or otherwise protected information and corruption of data (our own or that of third parties). We have experienced cybersecurity attacks and, while we believe that we have adopted appropriate measures and procedures to mitigate potential risks to our systems from information technology-related disruptions, it is possible that a cybersecurity attack could be successful in breaching the measures and procedures designed to protect our systems. In such an event, we could potentially be subject to production downtimes, operational delays, other detrimental impacts on our operations or ability to provide products and services to our customers, the compromising of confidential or otherwise protected information, misappropriation, destruction or corruption of data, security breaches, misappropriation of corporate funds, other manipulation or improper use of our systems or networks, financial losses from remedial actions, loss of business or potential liability, and/or damage to our reputation, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

10

*A failure to develop new or improved products and solutions may result in a significant competitive disadvantage.*

In order to maintain our market positions and margins, we need to continually develop and introduce high-quality, technologically advanced and cost-effective products and solutions on a timely basis, in many cases in multiple jurisdictions around the world. The failure to do so could result in a significant competitive disadvantage that could materially adversely affect our results of operations.

*The loss of key personnel and an inability to attract and retain qualified employees could have a material adverse effect on our operations.*

We are dependent on the continued services of our leadership team. The loss of these personnel without adequate replacement could have a material adverse effect on our operations. Additionally, we need qualified managers and skilled employees with technical and industry experience in many locations in order to operate our business successfully. From time to time, there may be a shortage of skilled labor, which may make it more difficult and expensive for us to attract and retain qualified employees. If we were unable to attract and retain sufficient numbers of qualified individuals or our costs to do so were to increase significantly, our operations and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

*Our business with the U.S. government is subject to government contracting risks.*

Our business with government agencies, including sales to prime contractors that supply these agencies, is subject to government contracting risks. U.S. government contracts are subject to termination by the government, either for the convenience of the government or for default as a result of our failure to perform under the applicable contract. In addition, if we or one of our divisions were charged with wrongdoing with respect to a U.S. government contract, the U.S. government could suspend us from bidding on or receiving awards of new government contracts pending the completion of legal proceedings, and if we are found liable, we could subject us to fines, penalties, repayments and treble and other damages, and/or debarment from bidding on or receiving new awards of U.S. government contracts.

*Climate change and legal or regulatory responses thereto may have an adverse impact on our business and results of operations and corporate sustainability efforts by suppliers may restrict the availability of raw materials critical to certain of our products.*

There is growing concern that a gradual increase in global average temperatures as a result of increased concentration of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere will cause significant changes in weather patterns around the globe and an increase in the frequency and severity of natural disasters. Many of our manufacturing facilities use significant amounts of electricity generated by burning fossil fuels, which releases carbon dioxide. Such climate change may impair our production capabilities, disrupt our supply chain or impact demand for our products. Growing concern over climate change also may result in additional legal or regulatory requirements designed to reduce or mitigate the effects of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions on the environment. Increased energy or compliance costs and expenses as a result of increased legal or regulatory requirements may cause disruptions in, or an increase in the costs associated with, the manufacturing and distribution of our products. The impacts of climate change and legal or regulatory initiatives to address climate change could have a long-term adverse impact on our business and results of operations. If we fail to achieve or improperly report on our progress toward achieving our goals and commitments to reduce our carbon footprint or in environmental and sustainability programs and initiatives, the results could have an adverse impact on our business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Corporate sustainability initiatives by suppliers could restrict the availability of raw materials critical to the manufacture of certain of our products. Recently, two major global suppliers of PTFE resins announced their intention, as part of their corporate sustainability initiatives, to discontinue the production of PTFE resins that are manufactured with the use of fluorosurfactants. PTFE resins are a critical raw material in the manufacture of certain of the products of our Sealing Technologies segment. While these actions are not expected to directly impact our ability to manufacture many of those products, as PTFE resins are currently available from other sources, similar actions by other existing suppliers could limit or restrict our ability to manufacture those products. In that event, if we were unable to develop products using substitute materials that provide the same reliability and performance as our current products manufactured with PTFE resins, our results of operations could be adversely affected.

*Our business could be materially adversely affected by numerous other risks, including rising healthcare costs, changes in environmental laws and other unforeseen business interruptions.*

Our business may be negatively impacted by numerous other risks. For example, medical and other healthcare costs may continue to grow faster than general inflation or employees may receive more or higher cost services in future periods.

11

Initiatives to address these costs, such as consumer driven health plan packages, may not successfully reduce these expenses to the extent expected or required. Failure to offer competitive employee benefits may result in our inability to recruit or maintain key employees. Other risks to our business include potential changes in environmental rules or regulations, which could negatively impact our manufacturing processes, or changes to the magnitude of costs at existing environmental sites. Use of certain chemicals and other substances could become restricted or such changes may otherwise require us to incur additional costs which could reduce our profitability and impair our ability to offer competitively priced products. Additional risks to our business include global or local events which could significantly disrupt our operations. Certain of our facilities are located in areas at risk for hurricanes, earthquakes, wildfires and/or flooding. Such natural disasters, as well as terrorist attacks, political insurgencies, pandemics and electrical grid disruptions and outages are some of the unforeseen risks that could negatively affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

### **Risks Related to the COVID 19 pandemic**

#### ***The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected, and may continue to adversely affect, our business and results of operations***

The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected our business and consolidated financial results in the past and could have an adverse impact on our business and consolidated financial results during 2023, and we are unable to determine the extent, duration, or nature of its continuing impact at this time. The intensity, duration and governmental responses to the pandemic, as well as the pace of vaccination efforts and the emergence of new variants of the virus that cause COVID-19, are all highly uncertain and could contribute to the ultimate impact on our business which is conducted globally. Our customers are principally global manufacturers and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on general economic conditions, and more deleterious effects in certain regions or on certain markets have had and may continue to have negative implications on demand for their goods and consequently on their demand for our products and services. Due to the scope of our operations, and our sale to customers around the world, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations and the demand for our products and solutions may not coincide with impacts experienced in the United States in the event that the impacts in the United States continue to improve over time due to increased vaccinations or improved medical treatments. Accordingly, to the extent that the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States may improve over time, we may continue to be adversely affected by COVID-19 impacts in other areas of the world.

### **Risks Related to Our M&A Activities**

#### ***We have made and expect to continue to make acquisitions, which could involve certain risks and uncertainties.***

We expect to continue to make acquisitions in the future. Acquisitions involve numerous inherent challenges, such as properly evaluating acquisition opportunities, properly evaluating risks and other diligence matters, ensuring adequate capital availability and balancing other resource constraints. There are risks and uncertainties related to acquisitions, including: difficulties integrating acquired technology, operations, personnel and financial and other systems; unrealized sales expectations from the acquired business; unrealized synergies and cost savings; unknown or underestimated liabilities; diversion of management attention from running our existing businesses; and potential loss of key management employees or customers of the acquired business. In addition, internal controls over financial reporting of acquired companies may not be up to required U.S. public company standards. Our integration activities may place substantial demands on our management, operational resources and financial and internal control systems. Customer dissatisfaction or performance problems with an acquired business, technology, service or product could also have a material adverse effect on our reputation and business.

### **Risks Related to Our Prior Ownership of Disposed Businesses**

#### ***We have exposure to some contingent liabilities relating to previously owned businesses, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows in any fiscal period.***

We have contingent liabilities related to discontinued operations and previously owned businesses of our predecessors, including environmental liabilities and liabilities for certain products and other matters. In some instances we have indemnified others against those liabilities, and in other instances we have received indemnities from third parties against those liabilities. For example, in 2014 when our then Fairbanks Morse division and a consortium partner entered into a multi-year arrangement with Electricite de France ('EDF') to supply opposed-piston, diesel engine generator set to EDF for emergency backup power at 20 of EDF's nuclear power plants in France, EnPro Industries, Inc. guaranteed the performance of Fairbanks Morse's obligations under agreements with our consortium partner, which guarantee continues to be in place following our sale of Fairbanks Morse, though both Fairbanks Morse and the purchaser of Fairbanks Morse have agreed to indemnify us for any payments we are required to make pursuant to such guarantee.

12

Claims could arise relating to products, facilities, employees or former employees, or other matters related to our discontinued operations. Some of these claims could seek substantial monetary payments. For example, EnPro has entered into an Administrative Settlement Agreement and Order on Consent for Interim Removal Action with the Environmental Protection Agency for the assessment and potential remediation of eight surface uranium mines in Arizona on the basis that our EnPro Holdings subsidiary, through which we hold most of our operating subsidiaries, was a potentially responsible party under federal environmental laws as the successor to a former operator in the 1950s of those mines. Further, we could potentially be liable with respect to firearms manufactured prior to March 1990 by Colt Firearms, a former operation of a corporate predecessor of EnPro Holdings, and electrical transformers manufactured prior to May 1994 by Central Moloney, another former operation of that corporate predecessor.

We have established reserves related to some of these liabilities based upon our best estimates in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. However, if our insurance coverage is depleted or our reserves are not adequate, environmental and other liabilities relating to discontinued operations could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

## Risks Related to Our International Operations

*We conduct a significant amount of our sales and service activities outside of the U.S., which subjects us to additional business risks, including foreign exchange risks, that may cause our profitability to decline.*

Because we sell our products and provide services in a number of foreign countries, we are subject to risks associated with doing business internationally. In 2022, we derived approximately 37% of our net sales from sales of our products and solutions outside of the U.S. Outside the U.S., we operate 12 primary manufacturing and service facilities (approximately 50,000 square feet or larger) located in 5 countries. Our sales and operating activities outside of the U.S. are, and will continue to be, subject to a number of risks, including:

- • unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, including long-term contracts denominated in foreign currencies;
- • adverse changes in foreign tax, legal and regulatory requirements;
- • political and economic instability, including instabilities associated with the armed conflict in Ukraine and any conflict or threat of conflict that may affect Taiwan;
- • difficulty in protecting intellectual property;
- • government embargoes, tariffs and trade protection measures, such as “anti-dumping” duties applicable to classes of products, and import or export licensing requirements, as well as the imposition of trade sanctions against a class of products imported from or sold and exported to, or the loss of “normal trade relations” status with, countries in which we conduct business, could significantly increase our cost of products or otherwise reduce our sales and harm our business;
- • cultural norms and expectations that may sometimes be inconsistent with our Code of Conduct and our requirements about the manner in which our employees, agents and distributors conduct business;
- • differing labor regulations; and
- • acts of hostility, terror or war.

Any of these factors, individually or together, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. For example, tapered roller bearings manufactured at our facilities in China that are imported into the United States before re-sale to customers are currently subject to “anti-dumping” duties imposed by the U.S. Department of Commerce based on its periodic review and analysis of our manufacturing and selling activities or the manufacturing and selling activities of larger Chinese suppliers of these products. Such duties, if imposed at higher levels, could materially adversely affect the commercial competitiveness of these products, which could adversely affect the business and results of operations of our Sealing Technologies segment.

Our operations outside the United States require us to comply with a number of United States and international regulations. For example, we are subject to the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the “FCPA”), which prohibits United States companies or their agents and employees from providing anything of value to a foreign official for the purposes of influencing any act or decision of these individuals in their official capacity to help obtain or retain business, direct business to any person or corporate entity, or obtain any unfair advantage. Our activities in countries outside the United States create the risk of unauthorized payments or offers of payments by one of our employees or agents that could be in violation of the FCPA, even though these parties are not always subject to our control. We have internal control policies and procedures and have

13

implemented training and compliance programs with respect to the FCPA. However, we cannot assure that our policies, procedures and programs always will protect us from reckless or criminal acts committed by our employees or agents. In the event that we believe or have reason to believe that our employees or agents have or may have violated applicable anti-corruption laws, including the FCPA, we may be required to investigate or have outside counsel investigate the relevant facts and circumstances. In addition, we are subject to and must comply with all applicable export controls and economic sanctions laws and embargoes imposed by the United States and other various governments. Changes in export control or trade sanctions laws may restrict our business practices, including cessation of business activities in sanctioned countries or with sanctioned entities, and may result in modifications to compliance programs and increase compliance costs, and violations of these laws or regulations may subject us to fines, penalties and other sanctions, such as loss of authorizations needed to conduct aspects of our international business or departments from export privileges. Violations of the FCPA or export controls or sanctions laws and regulations may result in severe criminal or civil sanctions, and we may be subject to other liabilities, which could negatively affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

We intend to continue to pursue international growth opportunities, which could increase our exposure to risks associated with international sales and operations. As we expand our international operations, we may also encounter new risks that could adversely affect our revenues and profitability. For example, as we focus on building our international sales and distribution networks in new geographic regions, we must continue to develop relationships with reputable and qualified local agents, distributors and trading companies. If we are not successful in developing these relationships, we may not be able to increase sales in these regions.

Failure to properly manage these risks could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

### **Risks Related to Our Capital Structure**

*Our debt agreement and the indenture governing our senior notes impose limitations on our operations, which could impede our ability to respond to market conditions, address unanticipated capital investments and/or pursue business opportunities.*

The agreement governing our senior secured revolving credit facility and the indenture governing our senior notes impose limitations on our operations, such as limitations on certain restricted payments, investments, incurrence or repayment of indebtedness, and maintenance of a consolidated net leverage ratio and an interest coverage financial ratio. In addition, the indenture governing our senior notes contains limitations on certain restricted payments, investments and incurrence or repayment of indebtedness. These limitations could impede our ability to respond to market conditions, address unanticipated capital investment needs and/or pursue business opportunities.

*We may not have sufficient cash to fund a required repurchase of our senior notes upon a change of control.*

Upon a change of control, as defined under the indenture governing our senior notes and includes events that may be beyond our control, the holders of our senior notes have the right to require us to offer to purchase all of our senior notes then outstanding at a price equal to 101% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. In order to obtain sufficient funds to pay the purchase price of the outstanding notes, we expect that we would have to refinance our senior notes. We cannot assure you that we would be able to refinance our senior notes on reasonable terms, if at all. Our failure to offer to purchase all outstanding notes or to purchase all validly tendered notes would be an event of default under the indenture governing our senior notes. Such an event of default may cause the acceleration of our other debt.

*We may incur increased interest expense as a result of our variable rate debt.*

Borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility and our Term Loan Facilities incur interest which is variable based on fluctuations in the referenced SOFR ('Secured Overnight Financing Rate'). Increases in the referenced SOFR will increase the Company's borrowing costs and negatively impact financial results and cash flows.

### **Risks Related to Ownership of Our Common Stock**

*The market price of our common stock may be volatile.*

A relatively small number of shares are normally traded in any one day and higher volumes could have a significant effect on the market price of our common stock. The market price of our common stock could fluctuate significantly for many reasons, including in response to the risks described in this section and elsewhere in this report or for reasons unrelated to our operations, such as reports by industry analysts, investor perceptions or negative announcements by our customers, competitors or suppliers regarding their own performance, as well as industry conditions and general financial, economic and political instability.

14

*Because our quarterly revenues and operating results may vary significantly in future periods, our stock price may fluctuate.*

Our revenue and operating results may vary significantly from quarter to quarter. A high proportion of our costs are fixed, due in part to significant selling and manufacturing costs. Small declines in revenues could disproportionately affect operating results in a quarter and the price of our common stock may fall. Other factors that could significantly affect quarterly operating results include, but are not limited to:

- demand for our products and services;
- the timing and execution of customer contracts;
- the timing of sales of our products and services;
- contractual penalties for late delivery of long-lead-time products;
- increases in costs due to equipment or labor issues;
- changes in foreign currency exchange rates;
- changes in applicable tax rates;
- an impairment of goodwill or other intangibles at one of our reporting units;
- unanticipated delays or problems in introducing new products;
- announcements by competitors of new products, services or technological innovations;
- changes in our pricing policies or the pricing policies of our competitors;
- increased expenses, whether related to sales and marketing, raw materials or supplies, product development or administration;
- major changes in the level of economic activity in major regions of the world in which we do business;
- costs related to possible future acquisitions or divestitures of technologies or businesses;
- an increase in the number or magnitude of product liability or environmental claims;
- our ability to expand our operations and the amount and timing of expenditures related to expansion of our operations, particularly outside the U.S.; and
- economic assumptions and market factors used to determine postretirement benefits and pension liabilities.

*Various provisions and laws could delay or prevent a change of control.*

The anti-takeover provisions of our articles of incorporation and bylaws and provisions of North Carolina law could delay or prevent a change of control or may impede the ability of the holders of our common stock to change our management. In particular, our articles of incorporation and bylaws, among other things:

- require a supermajority shareholder vote to approve any business combination transaction with an owner of 5% or more of our shares unless the transaction is recommended by disinterested directors;
- limit the right of shareholders to remove directors and fill vacancies;
- regulate how shareholders may present proposals or nominate directors for election at shareholders' meetings; and
- authorize our board of directors to issue preferred stock in one or more series, without shareholder approval.

*Future sales of our common stock in the public market could lower the market price for our common stock.*

In the future, we may sell additional shares of our common stock to raise capital or issue shares of common stock as consideration in connection with an acquisition. In addition, a reasonable number of shares of our common stock are reserved for issuance under our equity compensation plans, including shares to be issued upon the vesting of restricted stock or unit grants. We cannot predict the size of future issuances or the effect, if any, that they may have on the market price for our common stock. The issuance and sales of substantial amounts of common stock, or the perception that such issuances and sales may occur, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

Our manufacturing capabilities are flexible and allow us to tailor the manufacturing process to increase performance and value for our customers and meet particular specifications. We also maintain smaller manufacturing and service facilities, sales offices and warehouse facilities in strategic locations in the U.S. and other countries. We believe our facilities and equipment are generally in good condition and are well maintained and able to continue to operate at present or higher than current levels.

## ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Descriptions of environmental and other legal matters are included in Item 7 of this annual report under the heading 'Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Contingencies' and in Note 20 to our Consolidated Financial Statements, which descriptions are incorporated by reference herein.

In addition to the matters noted above and discussed in those sections of this report, we are from time to time subject to, and are presently involved in, other litigation and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. We believe that the outcome of such other litigation and legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

We were not subject to any penalties associated with any failure to disclose 'reportable transactions' under Section 6707A of the Internal Revenue Code.

## ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

*The following is management's discussion and analysis of certain significant factors that have affected our consolidated financial condition and operating results during the periods included in the accompanying audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes. You should read the following discussion in conjunction with our audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes, included elsewhere in this annual report.*

### Forward-Looking Statements

*This report contains certain statements that are 'forward-looking statements' as that term is defined under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the 'Act') and releases issued by the SEC. The words 'may,' 'hope,' 'will,' 'should,' 'could,' 'expect,' 'plan,' 'anticipate,' 'intend,' 'believe,' 'estimate,' 'predict,' 'potential,' 'continue,' and other expressions which are predictions of or indicate future events and trends and which do not relate to historical matters identify forward-looking statements. We believe that it is important to communicate our future expectations to our shareholders, and we therefore make forward-looking statements in reliance upon the safe harbor provisions of the Act. However, there may be events in the future that we are not able to accurately predict or control, and our actual results may differ materially from the expectations we describe in our forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from anticipated future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: the risks and uncertainties set forth in Item 1A of this annual report, entitled 'Risk Factors.' We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law. Whenever you read or hear any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements attributed to us or any person acting on our behalf, you should keep in mind the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section.*

### Non-GAAP Financial Information

In our discussion of our outlook and results of operations, we utilize financial measures that have not been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ('GAAP'). They include adjusted income from continuing operations attributable to EnPro Industries, Inc., adjusted diluted earnings per share attributable to EnPro Industries, Inc. continuing operations, adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ('adjusted EBITDA'), and total adjusted segment EBITDA. Tables showing the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures, other than total adjusted segment EBITDA, to the comparable GAAP measures are included in '-Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to the Comparable GAAP Measures,' while the reconciliation of total adjusted segment EBITDA is included in '-Results of Operations.'

We believe non-GAAP metrics are commonly used financial measures for investors to evaluate our operating performance and, when read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements, present a useful tool to evaluate our ongoing operations and performance from period to period. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are some of the factors we use in internal evaluations of the overall performance of our businesses. We acknowledge that there are many items that impact our reported results and the adjustments reflected in these non-GAAP measures are not intended to present all items that may have impacted these results. In addition, the non-GAAP measures we use are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

### Overview

Overview. We are a leading-edge industrial technology company focused on critical applications across a diverse group of growing end markets such as semiconductor, photonics, industrial process, aerospace, food, biopharma and life sciences. We have 13 primary manufacturing and service facilities located in 6 countries, including the United States. EnPro is a leader in applied engineering and designs, develops, manufactures, and markets proprietary, value-added products and solutions that safeguard a variety of critical environments.

Over the past several years, we have executed several strategic initiatives to focus the portfolio of businesses where we offer proprietary, industrial technology-related products and solutions with high barriers to entry, compelling margins, strong cash flow, and perpetual recurring/aftermarket revenue in markets with favorable secular tailwinds.

We manage our business as two segments: a Sealing Technologies segment and an Advanced Surface Technologies segment.

$^{1}$ As Reported represents the consolidated financial statement balances that have been recast for discontinued operations exclusive of the impact of our change in accounting method from LIFO to FIFO.

*Revenue Recognition* - The largest stream of revenue is product revenue for shipments of the various products discussed further in Note 19, 'Business Segment Information,' along with a smaller amount of revenue from services that typically take place over a short period of time. We recognize revenue at a point in time following the transfer of control, which typically occurs when a product is shipped or delivered, depending on the terms of the sale agreement, or when services are rendered. Shipping costs billed to customers are recognized as revenue and expensed in cost of goods sold as a fulfillment cost when control of the product transfers to the customer. Payment from customers is typically due within 30 days of the sale for sales in the U.S. For sales outside of the U.S., payment terms may be longer based upon local business customs, but are typically due no later than 90 days after the sale.

At December 31, 2022, we had a backlog of orders of continuing operations valued at $310.7 million of which $123.9 million related to Sealing Technologies and $186.8 million related to Advanced Surface Technologies compared with $274.7 million at December 31, 2021 of which $102.8 million related to Sealing Technologies and $171.9 million related to Advanced Surface Technologies. Approximately 7% of the backlog is expected to be filled beyond 2023. Backlog represents orders on hand we believe to be firm. However, there is no certainty the backlog orders will result in actual sales at the times or in the amounts ordered.

*Redeemable Non-Controlling Interests* - Non-controlling interests in subsidiaries that are redeemable for cash or other assets outside of the our control are classified as mezzanine equity, outside of equity and liabilities, at the greater of the carrying value or the redemption value. The increases or decreases in the estimated redemption amount are recorded with corresponding adjustments against equity and are reflected in the computation of earnings per share. At December 31, 2022, the redeemable non-controlling interest relates solely to Alluxa.

*Foreign Currency Translation* - The financial statements of those operations whose functional currency is a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars using the current rate method. Under this method, all assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars using current exchange rates, and income statement activities are translated using average exchange rates. The foreign currency translation adjustment is included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Gains and losses on foreign currency transactions are included in operating income. Foreign currency transaction losses (gains) totaled $(4.8) million, $1.7 million, and $3.0 million, respectively, in 2022, 2021, and 2020.

*Research and Development Expense* - Costs related to research and development activities are expensed as incurred. We perform research and development primarily under Company-funded programs for commercial products. Research and development expenditures in 2022, 2021, and 2020 were $10.1 million, $9.8 million, and $9.4 million, respectively, and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

*Income Taxes* - We use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Temporary differences arising between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its carrying amount on the Consolidated Balance Sheet are used to calculate future income tax assets or liabilities. This method also requires the recognition of deferred tax benefits, such as net operating loss carryforwards. Valuation allowances are recorded as appropriate to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount considered likely to be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to the taxable income (losses) in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the date of enactment of the change. A tax benefit from an uncertain tax position is recognized only if we believe it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on its technical merits. If the recognition threshold for the tax position is met, only the portion of the tax benefit that we believe is greater than 50 percent likely to be realized is recorded. Our future results may include favorable or unfavorable adjustments to our estimated tax liabilities due to closure of income tax examinations, statute expirations, new regulatory or judicial pronouncements, changes in tax laws, changes in projected levels of taxable income, future tax planning strategies, or other relevant events.

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the 'Tax Act') provides for a territorial tax system, that includes the global intangible low-taxed income ('GILTI') provision beginning in 2018. The GILTI provisions require us to include in our U.S. income tax return certain current year foreign subsidiary earnings net of foreign tax credits, subject to limitation. We elected to account for the GILTI tax in the period in which it is incurred.

*Cash and Cash Equivalents* - Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, demand deposits and highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase.

*Receivables* - Accounts receivable are stated at the historical carrying amount net of write-offs and allowance for doubtful accounts. We establish an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable based on historical experience and any specific

62

customer collection issues we have identified. Doubtful accounts receivable are written off when a settlement is reached for an amount less than the outstanding historical balance or when we have determined the balance will not be collected.

*Property, Plant and Equipment* - Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation of plant and equipment is determined on the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives of the assets: buildings and improvements, 5 to 25 years; machinery and equipment, 3 to 10 years.

*Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets* - Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets of acquired businesses. Goodwill is not amortized, but instead is subject to impairment testing that is conducted at least annually each calendar year in the fourth quarter. We transitioned from an October 1 annual testing date to a November 1 annual testing date in the fourth quarter of 2021. In making the transition, we performed annual impairment testing for our intangibles on both dates in the fourth quarter of 2021.

The goodwill asset impairment test involves comparing the fair value of a reporting unit to its carrying amount. An impairment charge is recognized when the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value; however, the loss recognized would not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Interim tests during the year may be required if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount.

To estimate the fair value of our five reporting units, we use both a discounted cash flow and a market valuation approach. The discounted cash flow approach uses cash flow projections and a discount rate to calculate the fair value of each reporting unit while the market approach relies on market multiples of similar companies. The key assumptions used for the discounted cash flow approach include projected revenues and profit margins, projected capital expenditures, changes in working capital, and the current discount and tax rates. For the market approach, we select a group of peer companies that we believe are best representative of each reporting unit. We used a 75% weighting for the discounted cash flow valuation approach and a 25% weighting for the market valuation approach, reflecting our belief that the discounted cash flow valuation approach is a better indicator of a reporting unit's value since it reflects the specific cash flows anticipated to be generated in the future by the business.

In the second quarter of 2022, we determined the performance of our Alluxa reporting unit to be a triggering event for an interim goodwill impairment test and, as a result, we performed an assessment as of June 30, 2022. The fair value of our Alluxa reporting unit, which is included in our Advanced Surface Technologies segment, and is allocated $126.0 million of goodwill, exceeded its carrying value by approximately 21% as of the interim testing date.

At the time of our annual test as of November 1, 2022, our updated forecast and projections based upon our annual strategic plan indicated that Alluxa's cash flows were below the June 30, 2022 assessment estimates, and the discount rate to determine fair value utilizing the income approach was significantly higher. The projection and analysis indicated that the book value of the Alluxa reporting unit exceeded fair value by $65.2 million which has been recognized as an impairment charge in the fourth quarter of 2022. The discount rate to determine the fair value of Alluxa increased from 12.0% as of November 1, 2021 to 14.6% as of November 1, 2022, resulting in a $50 million decline in the fair value of the Alluxa reporting unit utilizing the income approach. A 1% increase in the discount rate as of November 1, 2022 to 15.6% would decrease the fair value of the Alluxa reporting unit and result in an increase in the amount of the impairment being recognized by $11.2 million.

The fair value of our semiconductor reporting unit, included in the Advanced Surface Technologies segment, exceeded book value by 21.8% as of November 1, 2022. A 1% increase in the discount rate as of November 1, 2022 would result in a decrease in the cushion in the test to 12.7%. Separately, a 1% decline in the year-over-year revenue growth rates over the projection period would lower the cushion to 17.3%. The combination of a 1% increase in the discount rate and a 1% decline in the year-over-year revenue growth rates would lower the cushion to 8.8%.

The fair value of the three reporting units of our Sealing Technologies segment all exceeded their respective carrying values by more than 60% as of November 1, 2022. We completed our annual impairment tests of goodwill as of November 1, 2021, October 1, 2021 and 2020 with no impairment indicated.

Annual assessments are conducted in the context of information that was reasonably available to us as of the date of the assessment including our best estimates of future sales volumes and prices; material and labor cost and availability; operational efficiency including the impact of projected capital asset additions, and the then current discount rates and tax rates. We will perform our next annual goodwill impairment tests as of November 1, 2023; or earlier, if adverse changes in circumstances result in our assessment that a triggering event has occurred at any of our reporting units and an interim test is required.

63

Other intangible assets are recorded at cost or, when acquired as a part of a business combination, at estimated fair value. These assets include customer relationships, patents and other technology-related assets, trademarks, licenses, and non-compete agreements. Intangible assets that have definite lives are amortized using a method that reflects the pattern in which the economic benefits of the assets are consumed or the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of 1 to 21 years. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are subject to at least annual impairment testing, which were conducted as of November 1 in 2022 and 2021, and as of October 1, 2021 and 2020. The impairment testing compares the fair value of the intangible asset with its carrying amount using the relief from royalty method. The test completed as of November 1, 2022 and 2021, indicated no impairment. Interim tests may be required if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value below the carrying value or change the useful life of the asset.

In 2020, sales declines by businesses utilizing two of the indefinite-lived trademarks within our Sealing Technologies segment were determined to be triggering events for an interim impairment analysis. Based on the results of this analysis, we recorded a $16.1 million impairment of indefinite-lived trademarks in the third quarter of 2020.

Debt - Debt issuance costs associated with our senior secured revolving credit facility are presented as an asset and subsequently amortized into interest expense ratably over the term of the revolving debt arrangement. Debt issuance costs associated with any of our other debt instruments that are incremental third-party costs of issuing the debt are recognized as a reduction in the carrying value of the debt and amortized into interest expense over the time period to maturity using the interest method.

Derivative Instruments - We use derivative financial instruments to manage our exposure to various risks. The use of these financial instruments modifies the exposure with the intent of reducing our risk. We do not use financial instruments for trading purposes, nor do we use leveraged financial instruments. The counterparties to these contractual arrangements are major financial institutions. We use multiple financial institutions for derivative contracts to minimize the concentration of credit risk. The current accounting rules require derivative instruments, excluding certain contracts that are issued and held by a reporting entity that are both indexed to its own stock and classified in shareholders’ equity, be reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value and that changes in a derivative’s fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met.

Fair Value Measurements - Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.

We utilize a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:

- Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
- Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
- Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect our own assumptions.

The fair value of intangible assets associated with acquisitions is determined using an income valuation approach. Projecting discounted future cash flows requires us to make significant estimates regarding projected revenues and profit margins, projected capital expenditures, changes in working capital, discount rates, attrition rates, royalty rates, obsolescence rates and tax rates. This non-recurring fair value measurement would be classified as Level 3 due to the absence of quoted market prices or observable inputs for assets of a similar nature.

We review the carrying amounts of long-lived assets when certain events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of the asset group is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. We estimate the fair values of assets subject to long-lived asset impairment based on our own judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets. In doing so, we use a market approach when available or an income approach based upon discounted cash flows. The key assumptions used for the discounted cash flow approach include expected cash flows based on internal business plans, projected growth rates, discount rates, and royalty rates for certain intangible assets. We classify these fair value measurements as Level 3.

Similarly, the fair value computations for the recurring impairment analyses of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets would be classified as Level 3 due to the absence of quoted market prices or observable inputs. The key assumptions used for the discounted cash flow approach include projected revenues and profit margins, projected capital expenditures, changes in working capital, discount rates, tax rates and royalty rates for certain indefinite-lived intangible assets. Significant changes in any of those inputs could result in a significantly different fair value measurement.

*Pensions and Postretirement Benefits* - Amortization of the net gain or loss resulting from experience different from that assumed and from changes in assumptions is included as a component of benefit cost. If, as of the beginning of the year, that net gain or loss exceeds 10% of the greater of the projected benefit obligation or the market-related value of plan assets, the amortization is that excess divided by the average remaining service period of participating employees expected to receive benefits under the plan. We amortize prior service cost using the straight-line basis over the average future service life of active participants.

For segment reporting purposes, we allocate service cost to each location generating those costs. All other components of net periodic pension cost are reported in other (non-operating) expense.

## 2. Discontinued Operation

On January 30, 2023 we completed the sale of GPT for approximately $31 million resulting in a pretax gain of approximately $14 million to be recognized in the first quarter of 2023. Net cash proceeds after selling expenses was approximately $28 million.

In the third quarter of 2022, we entered into an agreement to sell our GGB business and announced our intention to sell Garlock Pipeline Technologies, Inc. (GPT). These businesses, along with Compressor Products International (CPI), which was divested on December 21, 2021, comprised our entire Engineered Materials segment ('Engineered Materials'). As a result of classifying the GGB and GPT businesses as held for sale in the third quarter of 2022, we determined Engineered Materials to be discontinued operations. Accordingly, we have reported, for all periods presented, the financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows of Engineered Materials as discontinued operations in the accompanying financial statements.

The sale of GGB closed on November 4, 2022 to The Timken Company for total proceeds of $305 million, subject to closing date purchase price adjustments. We recorded a pre-tax gain of $189.1 million as part of our discontinued operations in the fourth quarter of 2022. The sale of GGB included a subsidiary of our Sealing Technologies segment which is not part of the discontinued operations described above. We recorded a pre-tax loss of $0.4 million related to the sale of this subsidiary. The loss on sale as well as operating activity of this subsidiary are included in continuing operations for all periods being reported.

On December 21, 2021, we completed the sale of specified equity interests and assets of our CPI, which had been included in our Engineered Materials segment. We received $185.7 million, net of transaction fees and cash sold, resulting in a pre-tax book gain of $117.6 million as part of our discontinued operations.

During the fourth quarter of 2019, we entered into an agreement to sell the Fairbanks Morse division, which comprised our entire Power Systems segment. The sale of Fairbanks Morse to an affiliate of funds managed by private equity firm Arcline Investment Management closed on January 21, 2020 for a sales price of $450 million. The pre-tax gain on the disposition of Fairbanks Morse was $264.7 million. We have reported, for all periods presented, the results of operations and cash flows of the Power System segment as a discontinued operation in the accompanying financial statements.

Pursuant to applicable accounting guidance for the reporting of discontinued operations, allocations to our Engineered Materials segment for corporate services not expected to continue at the divested business subsequent to closing have not been reflected in the above financial statements of discontinued operations and have been reclassified to income from continuing operations in our accompanying consolidated financial statements for all periods. In addition, divestiture-related costs previously not allocated to our Engineered Materials segment that were incurred as a result of the divestiture of Engineered Materials have been reflected in the financial results of discontinued operations. As a result,

66

income (loss) from discontinued operations before income taxes of Engineered Materials has been decreased by $1.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 and increased $2.4 million, and $3.9 million, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2021, and 2020 with offsetting changes in corporate expenses of continuing operations.

### 3. Acquisitions and Dispositions

#### *Acquisitions*

On December 17, 2021, our subsidiary, EnPro Holdings, Inc. ('EnPro Holdings'), completed the acquisition of all issued and outstanding membership interests of TCFII NxEdge LLC ('NxEdge'). Based in Boise, Idaho, NxEdge serves customers across the semiconductor supply chain, including top tier global integrated device manufacturers and original equipment manufacturers from six main facilities located in Idaho and California. With vertically integrated capabilities across the semiconductor value chain, including a robust aftermarket business, NxEdge is a leading supplier offering a set of integrated capabilities with unique processes resulting in a broad range of qualifications at top customers. NxEdge is included in our Advanced Surface Technologies segment.

The acquisition was paid for with $853.9 million in cash, net of cash acquired. We funded the payment with available cash on hand, borrowings under our revolving credit facility and borrowings under new term loan facilities. Additionally, there were $15.0 million of acquisition-related costs recorded during the year ended December 31, 2021, which were expensed when incurred and included in selling, general and administrative expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year then ended.

On October 26, 2020, a subsidiary of EnPro formed for this purpose (the 'Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary') acquired all of the equity securities of Alluxa, Inc. ('Alluxa'), a privately held, California-based company. Alluxa is an industrial technology company that provides specialized optical filters and thin-film coatings for the most challenging applications in the industrial technology, life sciences, and semiconductor markets. Alluxa's products are developed through a proprietary coating process using state-of-the-art advanced equipment. Alluxa is included with the Advanced Surface Technologies segment.

Alluxa works in collaboration with customers across major end markets to provide customized, complex precision coating solutions through its specialized technology platform and proprietary processes. Alluxa has cultivated long-standing customer relationships across its diversified customer base. Alluxa's global distribution capabilities support the company's international reach, serving customers across the Americas, Europe, and Asia. Founded in 2007, Alluxa has two locations in California and is headquartered in Santa Rosa, California.

The acquisition was paid for with $238.4 million, net of cash acquired, plus rollover equity from three Alluxa executives (the 'Alluxa Executives'). Additionally, there were $5.0 million of acquisition-related costs recorded during the year ended December 31, 2020 related to this transaction which were expensed during the period and included in selling, general and administrative expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations.

In connection with the completion of the transaction, we entered into a limited liability operating agreement (the 'Alluxa LLC Agreement') with respect to the 'Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary' in connection with the rollover transaction with the Alluxa Executives receiving approximately 7% of the equity interests of the Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary in return for their contribution of the rollover shares of Alluxa. Pursuant to the Alluxa LLC Agreement, each Alluxa Executive has the right to sell to us, and we have the right to purchase from each Alluxa Executive (collectively, the 'Put and Call Rights'), one-third of the Alluxa Executive equity interests in the Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary during each of three exercise periods in 2024, 2025 and 2026, with any amount not sold or purchased in a prior exercise period being carried forward to the subsequent exercise periods (although for one Alluxa Executive who transitioned to a consulting role on January 1, 2023, the full amount of his equity interests are subject to the Company's right to purchase on June 30, 2024, with two-thirds of the equity interests purchasable at the fixed value of the equity interests as set forth in the Alluxa LLC Agreement). The Alluxa LLC Agreement also provides for the purchase by us of all of an Alluxa Executive's equity interests in the Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary in connection with the termination of employment of the Alluxa Executive under specified circumstances, with payments in certain circumstances to be made in annual installments. In certain cases involving the termination of an Alluxa Executive's employment, the consideration payable to an Alluxa Executive for the purchase of his equity interests is equal to the fixed value set forth in the Alluxa LLC Agreement (an aggregate of $17.85 million for all of the Alluxa Executives). In all other cases, including upon any exercise of the Alluxa Put and Call Rights, the consideration payable under the Alluxa LLC Agreement in connection with any such purchase by us of an Alluxa Executive's equity interests in the Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary is equal to the greater of the fixed value of the equity interests as set forth in the Alluxa LLC Agreement or a price based upon a multiple of twelve-month adjusted EBITDA based upon certain financial metrics of the Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary, plus cash and less indebtedness of the Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary prior to the relevant payment, and subject to certain adjustments dependent upon the circumstances of the purchase and sale.

67

On September 25, 2019, we acquired all of the equity securities of LeanTeq Co., Ltd. and its affiliate LeanTeq LLC (collectively referred to as "LeanTeq"). LeanTeq primarily provides refurbishment services for critical components and assemblies used in state-of-the-art semiconductor equipment. This equipment is used to produce the latest and most technologically advanced microchips for smartphones, autonomous vehicles, high-speed wireless connectivity, artificial intelligence, and other leading-edge applications. Founded in 2011 and headquartered in Taoyuan City, Taiwan, LeanTeq has two locations in Taiwan and one in the United States (Silicon Valley). LeanTeq is included within the Advanced Surface Technologies segment.

A limited liability company agreement (the "LeanTeq LLC Agreement") entered into with respect to Lunar as part of the LeanTeq acquisition, provided EnPro with the right to buy from each LeanTeq Executive (each a LeanTeq "Call Option"), and each LeanTeq Executive with the right to sell to EnPro (the "Put Option") such LeanTeq Executive's Rollover Equity as follows:

EnPro had the right to buy, and the LeanTeq Executive had the right to sell, such Rollover Equity within 90 days following the third anniversary of the closing and payable in two installments as follows (the "Put/Call Price"):

- Half of the price payable for the Rollover Equity is to be equal to a pro rata portion of a multiple of EBITDA (as defined) of Lunar (on a consolidated basis) during the last 12 months ("LTM") ending on the closest month end prior to the last month end before the purchase or sale (the "First Measurement Date") less Lunar's consolidated net debt in excess of cash as of the First Measurement Date (the "First Exercise Price"). The applicable multiple depends on the future LTM EBITDA margin and revenue growth;
- The remaining half of the price payable for the Rollover Equity is to be equal to an amount that is the higher of the First Exercise Price and a pro rata portion of a multiple of EBITDA of Lunar (on a consolidated basis) during the LTM prior to the first anniversary of the First Measurement Date (the "Second Measurement Date") less Lunar's consolidated net debt in excess of cash as of the Second Measurement Date. The applicable multiple depends on the future LTM EBITDA margin and revenue growth.
- During the fourth quarter of 2022, EnPro acquired all the equity securities of Lunar owned by the LeanTeq Executives for an anticipated $42.8 million and became the sole owner of LeanTeq. As a result of this purchase transaction, $35.0 million of our Redeemable Non-Controlling Interests was reclassified as a liability. We entered into a subsequent agreement with the LeanTeq Executives where we agreed to pay the full Put/Call Price calculated at the First Measurement Date and paid $41.9 million in December 2022, which was the minimum purchase price for these equity securities, of which $7.8 million eliminated our outstanding deferred compensation liability and $34.1 million reduced the liability attributable to the redeemable non-controlling interest acquisition. We anticipate an additional $0.8 million payment in December of 2023 based on Put/Call Price determined at the Second Measurement Date, which is subject to the financial performance of LeanTeq through November 2023. We have recorded this anticipated $0.8 million payment as a liability included in accrued expenses on our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022.

The fair value of the Alluxa Executives' equity interests and the LeanTeq Executives' Rollover Equity was estimated as of the closing date of those transactions. Due to the presence of the put arrangements and thus that redemption is not solely within our control, the Alluxa Executives' equity interests is, and, prior to December 2022, the LeanTeq Executives' Rollover Equity had been, presented as redeemable non-controlling interests. We initially recognized the amount at fair value, inclusive of the put-call provisions. We adjust the redeemable non-controlling interests when the redemption value exceeds the carrying value with changes recognized as an adjustment to equity.

Sales of $8.6 million and a pre-tax loss of $1.9 million for NxEdge are included in our Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2021. Sales of $5.7 million and a pre-tax loss of $6.1 million for Alluxa are included in our Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2020. The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020 are presented as if these acquisitions had been completed before January 1, 2020:

|  | 2022 | 2021 | 2020 |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Pro forma net sales | $1,099.2 | $1,318.2 | $1,275.2 |
| Pro forma net income (loss) from continuing operations | 16.2 | 202.4 | (19.5) |

These amounts have been calculated after applying our accounting policies and adjusting the results of NxEdge and Alluxa to reflect the additional depreciation and amortization that would have been charged assuming the fair value adjustments to inventory, property, plant and equipment and intangible assets had been applied prior to January 1, 2020 as well as additional interest expense to reflect financing required, together with the corresponding tax effects. The supplemental pro forma net income for the year ended December 31, 2021 was adjusted to exclude $15.0 million of pre-tax acquisition-related costs. The supplemental pro forma net income for the year ended December 31, 2020 was adjusted to exclude $5.0 million of pre-tax acquisition-related costs. These pro forma financial results have been prepared for comparative purposes only and do not reflect the effect of synergies that would have been expected to result from the integration of these acquisitions. The pro forma information does not purport to be indicative of the results of operations that actually would have resulted had the acquisitions occurred prior to January 1, 2020, or of future results of the consolidated entities.

### *Dispositions*

On September 2, 2021, we sold certain assets and liabilities of our polymer components business unit, which was principally located in Houston, Texas and had been included in our Sealing Technologies segment. As a result of the sale, we recorded a pre-tax gain of $19.5 million in other income (expense) on our Consolidated Statement of Operations.

On December 31, 2020, we sold the shares of Technetics Group UK Limited ('Technetics Group UK'), a manufacturer of elastomeric components primarily for use in the aerospace industry, which had been included in our Sealing Technologies segment, for a nominal cash purchase price. As part of the agreement with the buyer, we delivered to the buyer £148,000 of cash to fund value added tax ('VAT') payments due for VAT liabilities already incurred and £50,000 for working capital. We incurred a loss upon the sale of approximately £976,000 ($1.3 million). Upon the resolution of all remaining open items, we recorded an additional gain of $0.1 million in the first quarter of 2021.

On November 20, 2020, we completed the sale of the Air Springs portion of our heavy-duty trucking business for $23.1 million in cash, net of an estimated working capital adjustment and fees, and a long-term promissory note with a fair-value of $6.4 million (face value of $7.5 million). As part of the agreement with the buyer, we retained the U.S. accounts receivable for the business, which created a large working capital adjustment at closing. The amount of retained accounts receivable in the U.S. was approximately $8.6 million. We recorded a $0.1 million loss on sale of this business, which had been included in our Sealing Technologies segment in the fourth quarter of 2020. Upon the resolution of all remaining open items, we recorded an additional loss of $2.1 million in the first quarter of 2021.

In August of 2020, subsequent to announcing the exit of our Motor Wheel® brake drum and Crewson® brake adjuster brands in the second quarter of 2020, we identified a buyer and entered into a definitive agreement to sell the assets related to the businesses. On September 2, 2020, we completed the sale for $8.9 million, net of transaction fees. This transaction resulted in a $3.1 million loss on sale of the business in other income (expense) on our Consolidated Statement of Operations, comprised of a $3.0 million non-cash loss on the sale of assets and a $0.1 million loss on other expenses. Prior to finding a buyer of the brands, we determined the assets were impaired and recorded restructuring and impairment charges of $7.4 million in other operating (income) expense on our Consolidated Statement of Operations. Total losses on the exit of our Motor Wheel® brake drum and Crewson® brake adjuster brands, which had been included in our Sealing Technologies segment, recorded in 2020 were $10.5 million.

In the second quarter of 2020 we entered into an agreement to sell the Lunar® air disc brake business located in both the U.S. and in Shanghai, China. The sale of the U.S. assets of the business closed in the third quarter of 2020 for $0.3 million, resulting in a gain of $0.2 million recorded in other income (expense) on our Consolidated Statement of Operations. The sale of the Lunar® manufacturing facility located in Shanghai, China closed in the fourth quarter of 2020 for $0.9 million, resulting in a loss of $0.1 million. Prior to closing on the sale of the business, we determined the assets to be impaired and recorded a $2.1 million impairment charge, of which $1.6 million was related to impairment of long-lived assets and $0.5 million related to the impairment of inventory. The impairment of long-lived assets was recorded in other operating (income) expense and the impairment of inventory was recorded in cost of sales on our Consolidated Statement of Operations. Total net loss related to the exit of the Lunar® air disc brake business, which had been included in our Sealing Technologies segment, was $1.9 million.

For a further discussion of the impairment charges recorded in connection with the Motor Wheel® brake drum and Crewson® brake adjuster brands and the Lunar® air disc brake business, see Note 4, 'Other Income (Expense)'.

See Note 2, 'Discontinued Operations,' for information related to the disposition of our Engineered Materials segment and the Fairbanks Morse division, which comprised the entire Power Systems segment.

#### 4. Other Income (Expense)

##### *Operating*

We incurred $3.0 million, $2.5 million and $30.4 million of restructuring and impairment costs, excluding goodwill impairment, for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. See Note 1, 'Overview, Basis of Presentation, and Significant Accounting Policies' for information related to a goodwill impairment charge incurred in 2022.

Of the restructuring and impairment costs incurred in 2022 we incurred $1.8 million of restructuring costs related to the reorganization of sites and functions, primarily in the United States and $1.2 million of non-cash impairment charges of long-lived assets. Workforce reductions associated with our restructuring activities totaled 25 administrative and manufacturing positions.

During 2021, we conducted a number of restructuring activities throughout our operations which was mostly comprised of targeted workforce reductions. All costs associated with such initiatives were incurred in 2021. Workforce reductions associated with our restructuring activities totaled 36 administrative and manufacturing positions.

In the fourth quarter of 2020, we decided to exit the manufacturing of metallic gaskets. As a result of this decision, we evaluated the product line and determined the assets were impaired. We recorded a $1.5 million impairment, of which $1.4 million was related to the impairment of long-lived assets and $0.1 million was related to inventory.

In the third quarter of 2020, sales declines by businesses utilizing two of the indefinite-lived trademarks within our Sealing Technologies segment were determined to be triggering events for an interim impairment analysis. Based on the results of this analysis, we recorded a $16.1 million impairment of indefinite-lived trademarks in the third quarter.

The exit from our Motor Wheel® brake drum and Crewson® brake adjuster brands resulted in restructuring and impairment charges of $7.4 million in 2020, of which $3.6 million was related to inventory impairment charges, $3.5 million was impairment of intangible assets, and $0.3 million related to severance, contract cancellation costs, and other expenses million.

In the second quarter of 2020, we entered into an agreement to sell the Lunar® air disc brake business. As a result of this agreement, we incurred $1.9 million in impairment charges, of which $1.4 million related to impairment of long-lived assets and $0.5 million related to impairment of inventory.

In addition to the above mentioned restructuring and impairment charges, we undertook various other smaller restructuring and impairment action in 2020 that resulted in recording $3.3 million of restructuring related to severance and other exit costs and $0.2 million of impairment related to inventory of discontinued product lines.

Workforce reductions in 2020 associated with the aforementioned restructuring actions totaled 101 administrative and manufacturing positions.

Restructuring and impairment costs by reportable segment are as follows:

|  | Years Ended December 31, |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
|  | 2022 | 2021 | 2020 |
|  | (in millions) |  |  |
| Sealing Technologies | $0.7 | $2.4 | $30.3 |
| Advanced Surface Technologies | 1.3 | - | 0.1 |
| Corporate | 1.0 | 0.1 | - |
|  | $3.0 | $2.5 | $30.4 |

Also included in other operating income (expense) for the year ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020 were $0.1 million, $(0.1) million, and $0.2 million of other costs, respectively.

##### *Non-Operating*

During 2022, 2021 and 2020, we recorded expense of $5.1 million, $8.3 million and $36.0 million, respectively, due to environmental reserve increases based on additional information at several specific sites and other ongoing obligations of previously owned businesses. Refer to Note 20, 'Commitments and Contingencies - Environmental,' for additional information about our environmental liabilities.

70

We report the service cost component of pension and other postretirement benefits expense in operating income in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost are presented in other income (expense). For the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, we reported approximately $3.6 million, $8.5 million and $3.1 million, respectively, of income on the Consolidated Statements of Operations related to the components of net benefit cost other than service cost. Refer to Note 15, 'Pensions and Postretirement Benefits,' for additional information regarding net benefit costs.

In connection with the sale of GGB, accounted for as a discontinued operation, in the fourth quarter of 2022, we issued a note between a domestic and foreign entity that was denominated in a foreign currency. As a result, we recorded a $3.8 million loss due to the change in exchange rate in December 2022. In January 2023, we hedged the outstanding notes and expect the future gains or losses to be minimal.

In 2022, we evaluated our outstanding long-term receivable related to anticipated receipts from legacy asbestos insurance claims and adjusted the receivable down by $2.8 million.

In connection with the acquisition of Aseptic in 2019, we recognized a liability for uncertain tax positions and a related indemnification asset for the portion of that liability recoverable from the seller. We determined the statute of limitations expired on some of the uncertain tax positions in 2022 and 2021 and, accordingly, removed a portion of the liability and receivable. For the year ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the release of the related liability was recorded as part of our tax expense and we recorded a $0.9 million and $3.0 million expense, respectively, related to the reversal of the receivable in other non-operating income (expense) on our consolidated statement of operations.

In 2021, we recorded a pre-tax gain of $17.5 million primarily related to the sale of our polymer components business unit, which was principally located in Houston, Texas and included in our Sealing Technologies segment. Sales reported for this business included in our net sales for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 were $21.4 million and $26.4 million, respectively.

In 2020, we recorded a pretax loss of $2.7 million related to the sale of several businesses, including the Technetics Group UK Limited business, the Air Springs portion of our heavy-duty trucking business, our Motor Wheel® brake drum and Crewson® brake adjuster brands, and our Lunar ® air disc brake business located in our Sealing Technologies segment. Sales reported for the divested businesses included in our net sales for the year ended December 31, 2020 $110.1 million. For a further discussion on businesses disposed of, see Note 3, 'Acquisitions and Dispositions.'

Additional disclosures are not presented since the assets, liabilities and results of our disposed operations are not significant to our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

## 5. Income Taxes

Income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes as shown in the Consolidated Statements of Operations consists of the following:

|  | Years Ended December 31, |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
|  | 2022 | 2021 | 2020 |
|  | (in millions) |  |  |
| Domestic | $(77.2) | $(1.8) | $(85.9) |
| Foreign | 105.5 | 67.8 | 62.4 |
| Total | $28.3 | $66.0 | $(23.5) |

A summary of income tax expense (benefit) from continuing operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations is as follows:

|  | Years Ended December 31, |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
|  | 2022 | 2021 | 2020 |
|  | (in millions) |  |  |
| Current: |  |  |  |
| Federal | $15.0 | $(3.7) | $(15.1) |
| Foreign | 23.2 | 17.8 | 21.5 |

| State | 1.3 | (1.1) | (1.3) |
|  | (14.0) | (5.5) | (9.0) |
| Total | $24.4 | $8.7 | $(2.5) |

The GILTI provisions require us to include in our U.S. income tax return certain current foreign subsidiary earnings net of foreign tax credits, subject to limitation. We elected to account for the GILTI tax in the period in which it is incurred. As a result of these provisions, our effective tax rate was increased by 5.2% due to GILTI.

Significant components of deferred income tax assets and liabilities are as follows:

|  | As of December 31, |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
|  | 2022 | 2021 |
|  | (in millions) |  |
| Deferred income tax assets: |  |  |
| Net operating losses and tax credits | $18.5 | $22.8 |
| Environmental reserves | 10.2 | 11.4 |
| Accruals and reserves | 2.4 | 2.9 |
| Operating leases | 10.8 | 12.5 |
| Interest | 7.1 | 8.8 |
| Compensation and benefits | 8.6 | 8.9 |
| Inventories | 2.9 | - |
| Retained liabilities of previously owned businesses | 0.5 | 0.7 |
| Postretirement benefits other than pensions | 0.3 | 0.3 |
| Other | 2.5 | - |
| Gross deferred income tax assets | 63.8 | 68.3 |
| Valuation allowance | (10.7) | (8.9) |
| Total deferred income tax assets | 53.1 | 59.4 |
| Deferred income tax liabilities: |  |  |
| Depreciation and amortization | (160.6) | (183.7) |
| Operating leases | (10.8) | (12.5) |
| Cross currency swap | (2.1) | (2.1) |
| Inventories | - | (1.8) |
| Pension obligations | (1.6) | (5.3) |
| Other | - | (0.6) |
| Total deferred income tax liabilities | (175.1) | (206.0) |
| Net deferred income tax liabilities | $(122.0) | $(146.6) |

The net deferred income tax liabilities are reflected on a jurisdictional basis as a component of the December 31, 2022 and 2021 Consolidated Balance Sheet line items noted below:

72

|  | As of December 31, |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
|  | 2022 | 2021 |
|  | (in millions) |  |
| Other assets (non-current) | $12.8 | $17.6 |
| Deferred taxes and non-current income taxes payable | (134.8) | (164.2) |
| Net deferred income tax liabilities | $(122.0) | $(146.6) |

At December 31, 2022, we had $43.9 million of foreign net operating loss carryforwards, of which $36.8 million expire at various dates from 2027 through 2040 if unused, and $7.1 million have an indefinite carryforward period. We also had state net operating loss carryforwards with a tax effect of $3.9 million which expire at various dates from 2024 through 2042. These net operating loss carryforwards may be used to offset a portion of future taxable income and, thereby, reduce or eliminate our state or foreign income taxes otherwise payable.

Because of the transition tax, GILTI, and Subpart F provisions, undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries totaling $225.1 million at December 31, 2021 have been subjected to U.S. income tax or are eligible for the 100 percent dividends-received deduction under Section 245A of the Internal Revenue Code ('IRC') provided in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Additional undistributed earnings are estimated to be $66.7 million as of December 31, 2022. Whether through the application of the 100 percent dividends received deduction, or distribution of these previously-taxed earnings, we do not intend to distribute foreign earnings that will be subject to any significant incremental U.S. or foreign tax. During 2022, we repatriated $298.3 million of earnings from our foreign subsidiaries, resulting in $2.0 million of withholding taxes net of refunds to be received. We have determined that estimating any tax liability on our investment in foreign subsidiaries is not practicable. Therefore, we have not recorded any deferred tax liability on undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries.

We determined, based on the available evidence, that it is uncertain whether certain entities in various jurisdictions will generate sufficient future taxable income to recognize certain of these deferred tax assets. As a result, valuation allowances of $10.7 million and $8.9 million have been recorded as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Valuation allowances recorded relate to certain state and foreign net operating losses and other net deferred tax assets in jurisdictions where future taxable income is uncertain. In addition, a valuation allowance of $2.0 million has been recorded against $3.2 million of general foreign tax credit carryforwards due to uncertainty around the ability to generate the requisite foreign source income to utilize that portion of the foreign tax credits. Valuation allowances may arise associated with deferred tax assets recorded in purchase accounting. In accordance with applicable accounting guidelines, any reversal of a valuation allowance that was recorded in purchase accounting reduces income tax expense.

The effective income tax rate from continuing operations varied from the statutory federal income tax rate as follows:

|  | Percent of Pretax Income Years Ended December 31, |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
|  | 2022 | 2021 | 2020 |
| Statutory federal income tax rate | 21.0% | 21.0% | 21.0% |
| U.S. taxation of foreign profits, net of foreign tax credits | - | (5.6) | (0.5) |
| Research and employment tax credits | (2.2) | (1.1) | 0.3 |
| State and local taxes | 1.5 | (1.2) | 4.0 |
| Foreign tax rate differences | 8.4 | 10.1 | (34.2) |
| Statutory changes in tax rates | (1.1) | 0.2 | (1.3) |
| Valuation allowance | 8.1 | (5.1) | 2.1 |
| Changes in uncertain tax positions | (3.4) | (9.4) | (2.3) |
| Goodwill impairment | 48.4 | - | - |
| Nondeductible expenses | 2.3 | 4.1 | (7.6) |
| GILTI and FDII | 4.0 | (0.4) | 25.4 |
| Other items, net | (0.8) | 0.8 | 3.5 |
| Effective income tax rate | 86.2% | 13.4% | 10.4% |

The effective tax rate for 2022 was primarily driven by the goodwill impairment not being deductible for tax, the foreign rate differential related to certain foreign earnings that were subject to higher tax rates, and establishing a valuation allowance on certain tax attributes. The effect of these items resulted in a net $19.9 million increase in income tax expense. Additionally,

73

the effective tax rate was increased by GILTI and decreased by the release of uncertain tax positions associated with audit closures and statute expirations, resulting in a net increase to tax expense of $0.5 million.

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, we had $4.5 million and $5.5 million, respectively, of gross unrecognized tax benefits. Of the gross unrecognized tax benefit balances as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, $4.1 million and $5.1 million, respectively, would have an impact on our effective tax rate if ultimately recognized.

We record interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. In addition to the gross unrecognized tax benefits above, we had $1.2 million and $1.5 million accrued for interest and penalties at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2022 includes $(0.2) million for interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits. Income tax expense for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 included $(1.7) million and $0.4 million, respectively, for interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of the gross unrecognized tax benefits (excluding interest) is as follows:

| (in millions) | 2022 | 2021 | 2020 |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Balance at beginning of year | $5.5 | $12.2 | $10.1 |
| Additions based on tax positions related to the current year | 0.2 | 0.9 | 1.9 |
| Additions for tax positions of prior years | (0.2) | (0.2) | 0.2 |
| Reductions as a result of a lapse in the statute of limitations | (1.0) | (2.9) | - |
| Reductions as a result of audit/other settlements | - | (4.5) | - |
| Balance at end of year | $4.5 | $5.5 | $12.2 |

U.S. federal income tax returns for tax years 2019 and forward remain open to examination. We and our subsidiaries are also subject to income tax in multiple state, local and foreign jurisdictions. Various state and foreign tax returns are currently under examination. Substantially all significant state, local and foreign income tax returns for the years 2018 and forward are open to examination. We expect that some of these examinations may conclude within the next twelve months, however, the final outcomes are not yet determinable. In addition, gross unrecognized tax benefits may be reduced by $0.4 million within the next twelve months as the applicable statute of limitation expire.

## 6. Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the income (loss) by the applicable weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock as adjusted for any potentially dilutive shares as of the balance sheet date. The computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for calendar years 2022, 2021, and 2020 is as follows (in millions, except per share data):

74

|  | 2022 | 2021 | 2020 |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Numerator (basic and diluted): |  |  |  |
| Income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to EnPro Industries, Inc. | $6.7 | $56.9 | $(21.4) |
| Income from discontinued operations | 198.4 | 121.0 | 199.0 |
| Net income | $205.1 | $177.9 | $177.6 |
| Denominator: |  |  |  |
| Weighted-average shares - basic | 20.8 | 20.6 | 20.5 |
| Share-based awards | 0.1 | 0.2 | - |
| Weighted-average shares - diluted | 20.9 | 20.8 | 20.5 |
| Basic earnings (loss) per share: |  |  |  |
| Continuing operations | $0.32 | $2.76 | $(1.05) |
| Discontinued operations | 9.54 | 5.88 | 9.69 |
| Net income per share | $9.86 | $8.64 | $8.64 |
| Diluted earnings (loss) per share: |  |  |  |
| Continuing operations | $0.32 | $2.74 | $(1.05) |
| Discontinued operations | 9.51 | 5.83 | 9.69 |
| Net income per share | $9.83 | $8.57 | $8.64 |

In the year ended December 31, 2020 there were losses attributable to continuing operations. As a result of these losses, there were 0.1 million of potentially dilutive shares excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share during that year since they were antidilutive.

## 7. Inventories

|  | As of December 31, |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
|  | 2022 | 2021 |

## 9. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

The changes in the net carrying value of goodwill by reportable segment for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 are as follows:

75

|  | Sealing Technologies | Advanced Surface Technologies | Total |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
|  | (in millions) |  |  |
| Goodwill as of December 31, 2020 | $297.4 | $307.7 | $605.1 |

| Impairment | - | (65.2) | $(65.2) |
| Goodwill as of December 31, 2022 | $270.8 | $593.0 | $863.8 |

The goodwill balances reflected above are net of accumulated impairment losses of $27.8 million for the Sealing Technologies segment as of December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 and $65.2 million for the Advanced Surface Technologies segment as of December 31, 2022.

Identifiable intangible assets are as follows:

|  | As of December 31, 2022 |  | As of December 31, 2021 |  |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
|  | Gross Carrying Amount | Accumulated Amortization | Gross Carrying Amount | Accumulated Amortization |
|  | (in millions) |  |  |  |
| Amortized: |  |  |  |  |
| Customer relationships | $484.5 | $157.6 | $503.4 | $132.9 |

Amortization expense for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 was $76.8 million, $44.3 million and $35.6 million, respectively.

The estimated amortization expense for definite-lived (amortized) intangible assets for the next five years is as follows (in millions):

| 2023 | $69.7 |
| --- | --- |
| 2024 | $69.6 |
| 2025 | $68.6 |
| 2026 | $65.1 |
| 2027 | $64.5 |

## 10. Leases

We regularly enter into operating leases primarily for real estate, equipment, and vehicles. Operating lease arrangements are generally utilized to secure the use of assets if the terms and conditions of the lease or the nature of the asset makes the lease

76

arrangement more favorable than a purchase. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. We have elected an accounting policy to combine lease and non-lease components.

Our building leases have remaining terms up to ten years, some of which contain options to renew up to five years, and some of which contain options to terminate. Some leases contain non-lease components, which may include items such as building common area maintenance, building parking, or general service and maintenance provided for leased assets by the lessor. Our vehicle, equipment, and other leases have remaining lease terms up to four years, some of which contain options to renew or become evergreen leases, with automatic renewing one-month terms, and some of which have options to terminate.

Our right of use assets and liabilities related to operating leases as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 are as follows:

|  | Balance Sheet Classification | As of December 31, |  |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
|  |  | 2022 | 2021 |
|  |  | (in millions) |  |
| Right-of-use assets | Other assets | $45.5 | $51.7 |
| Current liability | Accrued expenses | $9.2 | $9.5 |
| Long-term liability | Other liabilities | 38.1 | 43.9 |
| Total liability |  | $47.3 | $53.4 |

Approximately 98% of the dollar value of our operating lease assets and liabilities arise from real estate leases and approximately 2% arise from equipment and vehicle leases as of December 31, 2022. As of December 31, 2021, approximately 94% of the dollar value of our operating lease assets and liabilities arise from real estate leases and approximately 6% arise from equipment and vehicle leases.

We entered into additional operating leases, including leases acquired through business acquisitions, and renewed existing leases that resulted in new right-of-use assets totaling $5.7 million and $30.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate for calculating the right of use assets and corresponding lease liabilities. Accordingly, we determine the interest rate that we would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term and amount equal to the lease payments in similar economic environments.

Our lease costs and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were as follows:

|  | Year ended |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
|  | 2022 | 2021 |
|  | (in millions) |  |
| Lease costs: |  |  |
| Operating lease costs | $11.0 | $7.7 |
| Short-term and variable lease costs | $0.2 | $0.2 |
| Cash flows: |  |  |
| Operating cash flows from operating leases | $10.7 | $7.5 |

Our weighted average remaining lease term and discount rates at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were as follows:

77

|  | December 31, 2022 | December 31, 2021 |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Weighted average remaining lease term (in years) | 6.6 | 7.2 |
| Weighted average discount rate | 3.5% | 3.4% |

A maturity analysis of undiscounted operating lease liabilities is shown in the table below:

|  | Operating Lease Payments (in millions) |
| --- | --- |
| 2023 | $10.7 |
| 2024 | 9.4 |
| 2025 | 7.4 |

| Thereafter | 13.9 |
| Total lease payments | 53.0 |
| Less: interest | (5.7) |
| Present value of lease liabilities | $47.3 |

The operating lease payments listed in the table above include all current leases. The payments also include all renewal periods that we are reasonably certain to exercise.

We rarely enter into finance leases or act as a lessor. Since finance lease amounts, lessor details, and finance lease related costs are not significant to our consolidated financial position or results of operations, additional disclosures regarding finance leases are not presented.

### *Senior Secured Credit Facilities*

On December 17, 2021, we entered into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amended Credit Agreement”) among the Company and EnPro Holdings, as borrowers, certain foreign subsidiaries of the Company from time to time party thereto, as designated borrowers, the guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer. The Amended Credit Agreement amends, restates and replaces the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of June 28, 2018, as amended, among the Company and EnPro Holdings as borrowers, the guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer.

The Amended Credit Agreement provides for credit facilities in the initial aggregate principal amount of $1,007.5 million, consisting of a five-year, senior secured revolving credit facility of $400.0 million (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), a $142.5 million senior secured term loan facility in replacement of the our existing senior secured term loan facility, maturing September 25, 2024 (the “Term Loan A-1 Facility”), a five-year, senior secured term loan facility of $315.0 million (the “Term Loan A-2 Facility”) and a 364-day, senior secured term loan facility of $150.0 million (the “364-Day Facility” and together with the Revolving Credit Facility, the Term Loan A-1 Facility and the Term Loan A-2 Facility, the “Facilities”). The Amended Credit Agreement also provides that we may seek incremental term loans and/or additional revolving credit commitments in an amount equal to the greater of $275.0 million and 100% of consolidated EBITDA for the most recently ended four-quarter period for which we have reported financial results, plus additional amounts based on a consolidated senior secured leverage ratio. The Amended Credit Agreement became effective on December 17, 2021.

Borrowings under the 364-Day Facility bore interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 1.50% or base rate plus 0.50%. Initially, borrowings under the Facilities (other than the 364-Day Facility) bore interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 1.75% or base rate plus 0.75%, although these interest rates were subject to incremental increase or decrease based on a consolidated total net leverage ratio. On November 8, 2022, we entered into a First Amendment to the Amended Credit Agreement, which replaced the LIBOR-based interest rate option with an option based on Term SOFR (“Secured Overnight Financing Rate”) plus (i) a credit spread adjustment of 0.10% and (ii) 1.75%, again subject to incremental increase or decrease based on a consolidated total net leverage ratio. In addition, a commitment fee accrues with respect to the unused amount of the Revolving Credit Facility at an annual rate of 0.225%, which rate is also subject to incremental increase or decrease based on a consolidated total net leverage ratio.

The Term Loan A-1 Facility amortizes on a quarterly basis in an annual amount equal to 2.50% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan A-1 Facility ($150.0 million) in year one after the closing, 5.00% of such original principal amount in year two and 1.25% of such original principal amount in each of the first three quarters of year three, with the remaining outstanding principal amount payable at maturity. The Term Loan A-2 Facility amortizes on a quarterly basis in an annual amount equal to 2.5% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan A-2 Facility in each of years one through three, 5.0% of such original principal amount in year four and 1.25% of such original principal amount in each of the first three quarters of year five, with the remaining outstanding principal amount payable at maturity. The 364-Day Facility did not amortize and was repaid in full in the quarter ended September 30, 2022. The Facilities are subject to prepayment with the net cash proceeds of certain asset sales, casualty or condemnation events and non-permitted debt issuances.

The Company and EnPro Holdings are the permitted borrowers under the Facilities. The Company may also from time to time designate any of its wholly owned foreign subsidiaries as a borrower under the Revolving Credit Facility. Each of the

79

Company’s domestic subsidiaries (other than any subsidiaries that may be designated as “unrestricted” by the Company from time to time, and inactive subsidiaries) is required to guarantee the obligations of the borrowers under the Facilities, and each of the Company’s existing domestic subsidiaries (other than inactive subsidiaries) has entered into the Amended Credit Agreement to provide such a guarantee.

Borrowings under the Facilities are secured by a first-priority pledge of certain assets. The Amended Credit Agreement contains certain financial covenants and required financial ratios including a maximum consolidated total net leverage and a minimum consolidated interest coverage as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement. We were in compliance with all covenants of the Amended Credit Agreement as of December 31, 2022.

The borrowing availability under our Revolving Credit Facility at December 31, 2022 was $389.2 million after giving consideration to $10.8 million of outstanding letters of credit and no outstanding borrowings. The balance of our outstanding Term Loan A-1 Facility, Term Loan A-2 Facility and 364-Day Facility at December 31, 2022 was $137.0 million and $307.1 million, respectively. The 364-Day Facility had no outstanding balance at December 31, 2022.

### *Senior Notes*

On October 17, 2018, we completed the offering of $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.75% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “Senior Notes”) and applied the net proceeds of that offering, together with borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, to redeem on October 31, 2018 the full $450.0 million aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 5.875% Senior Notes due 2022 (the “Old Notes”).

The Senior Notes were issued to investors at 100% of the principal amount thereof. The Senior Notes are unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of EnPro and mature on October 15, 2026. Interest on the Senior Notes accrues at a rate of 5.75% per annum and is payable semi-annually in cash in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year. The Senior Notes are required to be guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of EnPro’s existing and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries that is a borrower under, or guarantees, our indebtedness under the Revolving Credit Facility or guarantees any other Capital Markets Indebtedness (as defined in the indenture governing the Senior Notes) of EnPro or any of the guarantors.

Commencing on October 15, 2021, we may, on any one or more occasions, redeem all or a part of the Senior Notes at specified redemption prices plus accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, we may redeem a portion of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes before October 15, 2021 with the net cash proceeds from certain equity offerings at a specified redemption price plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date. Prior to October 15, 2021, we could redeem some or all of the Senior Notes at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date, plus a “make whole” premium.

The indenture governing the Senior Notes includes covenants that restrict our ability to engage in certain activities, including incurring additional indebtedness, paying dividends and repurchasing shares of our common stock, subject in each case to specified exceptions and qualifications set forth in the indenture. The indenture further requires us to apply the net cash proceeds of certain asset sales not reinvested in acquisitions, or used to repay or otherwise reduce specified indebtedness within a specified period, in the event of the net proceeds exceeding a specified amount, to offer to repurchase the Senior Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest.

### *Scheduled Principal Payments*

Future principal payments on long-term debt are as follows:

|  | (in millions) |
| --- | --- |
| 2023 | $15.6 |
| 2024 | 137.5 |
| 2025 | 15.9 |
| 2026 | 625.9 |
| 2027 | 0.1 |
| Thereafter | 0.1 |
|  | $795.1 |

80

The payments for long-term debt shown in the table above reflect the contractual principal amount for the Senior Notes and Term Loan A-2 Facility. In the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2022, these amounts are shown net of unamortized debt discounts aggregating $4.4 million pursuant to applicable accounting rules.

### *Debt Issuance Costs*

During 2021, we capitalized $4.7 million of debt issuance costs in connection with the Amended Credit Agreement.

### **13. Derivatives and Hedging**

We are exposed to foreign currency risks that arise from normal business operations. These risks include the translation of local currency balances on our foreign subsidiaries' balance sheets, intercompany loans with foreign subsidiaries and transactions denominated in foreign currencies. We strive to control our exposure to these risks through our normal operating activities and, where appropriate, through derivative instruments. We periodically enter into contracts to hedge forecasted transactions that are denominated in foreign currencies. In December 2022, we entered into a forward contract to hedge a 95 million Euro exposure on an intercompany note agreement related to proceeds from the GGB sale allocated to foreign subsidiaries. We expect this position to be resolved in 2023. The notional amount of foreign exchange contracts was $103.3 million and $3.3 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. All foreign exchange contracts outstanding at December 31, 2022 expired in January of 2023.

The notional amounts of all of our foreign exchange contracts were recorded at their fair market value as of December 31, 2022 with changes in market value recorded in income. The earnings impact of any foreign exchange contract that is specifically related to the purchase of inventory is recorded in cost of sales and the changes in market value of all other contracts are recorded in selling, general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The balances of foreign exchange derivative assets are recorded in other current assets and the balances of foreign exchange derivative liabilities are recorded in accrued expenses in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In September 2018, we entered into cross currency swap agreements (the 'Swap') with a notional amount of $200.0 million to manage foreign currency risk by effectively converting a portion of the interest payments related to our fixed-rate USD-denominated Old Notes, including the semi-annual interest payments thereunder, to interest payments on fixed-rate Euro-denominated debt of 172.8 million EUR with a weighted average interest rate of 2.8%, with interest payment dates of March 15 and September 15 of each year.

The Swap matured on September 15, 2022. At settlement, we received $30.8 million in cash, of which $27.4 million represented the fair value of the contracts as of the settlement date and $3.4 million represented interest receivable. Unrealized gains totaling $20.8 million, net of tax, as of the maturity date are included in accumulated other comprehensive income.

In May 2019, we entered into additional cross currency swap agreements (the 'Additional Swap') with a notional amount of $100.0 million to manage an increased portion of our foreign currency risk by effectively converting a portion of the interest payments related to our fixed-rate USD-denominated Senior Notes, including the semi-annual interest payments thereunder, to interest payments on the fixed-rate Euro-denominated debt of 89.6 million EUR with a weighted average interest rate of 3.5%, with interest payment dates of April 15 and October 15 of each year. The Additional Swap agreement matures on October 15, 2026.

During the term of the Additional Swap agreement, we will receive semi-annual payments from the counterparties due to the difference between the interest rate on the Senior Notes and the interest rate on the Euro debt underlying the Additional Swap. There was no principal exchange at the inception of the arrangement, and there will be no exchange at maturity. At maturity (or earlier at our option), we and the counterparty will settle the Additional Swap agreement at its fair value in cash based on the aggregate notional amount and the then-applicable currency exchange rate compared to the exchange rate at the time the Additional Swap agreement was entered into.

We have designated the Additional Swap as a qualifying hedging instruments and are accounting for it as a net investment hedge. At December 31, 2022, the fair value of the Additional Swap equaled $8.5 million and was recorded within our other (non-current) assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The gains and losses resulting from fair value adjustment to the Additional Swap agreement, excluding interest accruals related to the above receipts, are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income within our cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment, as the Additional Swap is effective in hedging the designated risk. Cash flows related to the Additional Swap are included in operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, aside from the ultimate settlement at maturity with the counterparty, which will be included in investing activities.

#### 14. Fair Value Measurements

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized as follows:

|  | Fair Value Measurements as of |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
|  | December 31, 2022 | December 31, 2021 |
|  | (in millions) |  |
| Assets |  |  |
| Foreign currency derivatives | $8.5 | $8.7 |
| Deferred compensation assets | 9.8 | 10.9 |
|  | $18.3 | $19.6 |
| Liabilities |  |  |
| Deferred compensation liabilities | $10.3 | $11.4 |

Our deferred compensation assets and liabilities are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices. Our foreign currency derivatives are classified as Level 2 as their value is calculated based upon observable inputs including market USD/Euro exchange rates and market interest rates.

The carrying values of our significant financial instruments reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets approximate their respective fair values, except for the following:

|  | December 31, 2022 |  | December 31, 2021 |  |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
|  | Carrying Value | Fair Value | Carrying Value | Fair Value |
|  | (in millions) |  |  |  |
| Long-term debt | $790.7 | $788.8 | $976.6 | $998.3 |

The fair values for long-term debt are based on quoted market prices for identical liabilities, but this would be considered a Level 2 computation because the market is not active.

#### 15. Pensions and Postretirement Benefits

We have non-contributory defined benefit pension plans covering eligible employees in the United States, Mexico, Taiwan and several European countries. Salaried employees' benefit payments are generally determined using a formula that is based on an employee's compensation and length of service. We closed our defined benefit pension plan for new salaried employees in the United States who joined the Company after January 1, 2006, and, effective January 1, 2007, benefits were frozen for all salaried employees who were not age 40 or older as of December 31, 2006 and benefits for all remaining eligible salaried employees were frozen as of January 1, 2021. Hourly employees' benefit payments are generally determined using stated amounts for each year of service.

Our employees also participate in voluntary contributory retirement savings plans for salaried and hourly employees maintained by us. Under these plans, eligible employees can receive matching contributions up to the first 6% of their eligible earnings. Effective January 1, 2007, those employees whose defined benefit pension plan benefits were frozen receive an additional 2% company contribution each year. Beginning on August 1, 2016, this additional contribution ceased being provided to future hires at the company, but was retained for those employees already receiving it. We recorded $8.6 million, $8.3 million and $7.5 million in expenses in 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively, for matching contributions under these plans.

Our general funding policy for qualified defined benefit pension plans historically has been to contribute amounts that are at least sufficient to satisfy regulatory funding standards. No contributions were made in 2022 or 2021 and in 2020, we contributed $4.0 million, in cash to our U.S. pension plans. The contribution was made in 2020 in order to meet a funding level sufficient to avoid variable fees from the PBGC on the underfunded portion of our pension liability. We do not anticipate making contributions in 2023 to our U.S. defined benefit pension plans and we expect to make total contributions of approximately $0.8 million in 2023 to the foreign pension plans.

The projected benefit obligation and fair value of plan assets for the defined benefit pension plans with projected benefit obligations in excess of plan assets were $6.1 million and $0.2 million at December 31, 2022, and $13.9 million and $1.0 million at December 31, 2021, respectively. The accumulated benefit obligation and fair value of plan assets for the defined benefit pension plans with accumulated benefit obligations in excess of plan assets were $4.3 million and $0.2 million at December 31, 2022, and $10.1 million and $1.0 million at December 31, 2021, respectively.

82

We provide, through non-qualified plans, supplemental pension benefits to a limited number of employees. Certain of our subsidiaries also sponsor unfunded postretirement plans that provide certain health-care and life insurance benefits to eligible employees. The health-care plans are contributory, with retiree contributions adjusted periodically, and contain other cost-sharing features, such as deductibles and coinsurance. The life insurance plans are generally noncontributory. The amounts included in “Other Benefits” in the following tables include the non-qualified plans and the other postretirement plans discussed above.

The following table sets forth the changes in projected benefit obligations and plan assets of our defined benefit pension and other non-qualified and postretirement plans as of and for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

| Expected long-term return on plan assets | 3.9% | 5.3% | 6.0% | - | - | - |
| Rate of compensation increase | N/A | 3.0% | 3.0% | 4.0% | 4.0% | 4.0% |

The discount rate reflects the current rate at which the pension liabilities could be effectively settled at the end of the year. The discount rate was determined with a model that uses a theoretical portfolio of high quality corporate bonds specifically selected to produce cash flows closely related to how we would settle our retirement obligations. This produced a discount rate of 5.6% at December 31, 2022. As of the date of these financial statements, there are no known or anticipated changes in our discount rate assumption that will impact our pension expense in 2023. A 25 basis point decrease (increase) in our discount rate, holding constant our expected long-term return on plan assets and other assumptions, would decrease (increase) pension expense by approximately $0.1 million per year.

The overall expected long-term rate of return on assets was determined based upon weighted-average historical returns over an extended period of time for the asset classes in which the plans invest according to our current investment policy.

We use the Pri-2012 base mortality table with the MP-2021 projection scale to value our domestic pension liabilities.

| Assumed Health Care Cost Trend Rates at December 31 | 2022 | 2021 |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Health care cost trend rate assumed for next year | 7.0% | 7.0% |
| Rate to which the cost trend rate is assumed to decline (the ultimate rate) | 4.5% | 4.5% |
| Year that the rate reaches the ultimate trend rate | 2028 | 2027 |

## Plan Assets

The asset allocation for pension plans at the end of 2022 and 2021, and the target allocation for 2023, by asset category are as follows:

|  | Target Allocation | Plan Assets at December 31, |  |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
|  | 2023 | 2022 | 2021 |
| Asset Category |  |  |  |
| Equity securities | 20% | 22% | 22% |
| Fixed income | 80% | 78% | 78% |
|  | 100% | 100% | 100% |

Our investment goal is to maximize the return on assets, over the long term, by investing in equities and fixed income investments while diversifying investments within each asset class to reduce the impact of losses in individual securities. Equity investments include a mix of U.S. large capitalization equities, U.S. small capitalization equities and non-U.S. equities. Fixed income investments include a mix of treasury obligations and high-quality money market instruments. The asset allocation policy is reviewed and any significant variation from the target asset allocation mix is rebalanced periodically. The plans have no direct investments in EnPro common stock.

The plans invest exclusively in mutual funds whose holdings are marketable securities traded on recognized markets and, as a result, would be considered Level 1 assets. The investment portfolios of the various funds at December 31, 2022 and 2021 are summarized as follows:

85

|  | 2022 | 2021 |
| --- | --- | --- |
|  | (in millions) |  |
| Mutual funds - U.S. equity | $32.6 | $46.2 |
| Mutual funds - international equity | 22.3 | 30.6 |
| Mutual funds - fixed income treasury and money market | 197.2 | 273.5 |
| Cash equivalents | 1.2 | 1.1 |
|  | $253.3 | $351.4 |

### Estimated Future Benefit Payments

The following benefit payments, which reflect expected future service, as appropriate, are expected to be paid in the following calendar years:

|  | Pension Benefits | Other Benefits |
| --- | --- | --- |
|  | (in millions) |  |
| 2023 | $16.3 | $0.1 |
| 2024 | 16.8 | 1.4 |

| 2027 | 18.4 | 0.1 |
| Years 2027 - 2031 | 97.8 | 0.5 |

### 16. Shareholders' Equity

We have a policy under which we intend to declare regular quarterly cash dividends on our common stock, as determined by our board of directors, after taking into account our cash flows, earnings, financial position and other relevant matters. In accordance with this policy, total dividend payments of $23.4 million, $22.4 million, and $21.7 million were made during the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively.

In February 2023, our board of directors declared a cash dividend of $0.29 per share, commencing with the dividend to be paid on March 15, 2023 to all shareholders of record as of March 1, 2023.

In October 2018, our board of directors authorized a two-year program for expenditures of up to $50.0 million of our outstanding common shares. Prior to the expiration of this authorization in October 2020, we repurchased 0.1 million shares for $5.3 million during 2020.

In October 2022, our board of directors authorized a new two-year program of up to $50.0 million for the repurchase of our outstanding common shares through October 2024. We have not made any repurchases under the new authorization.

The shares for all repurchase plans are retired upon purchase.

(1) These accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) components are included in the computation of net periodic pension cost. Since these are components of net periodic pension cost other than service cost, the affected Consolidated Statement of Operations caption is other (non-operating) expense. (See Note 15, "Pensions and Postretirement Benefits" for additional details).

## 18. Equity Compensation Plan

We have equity compensation plans (the "Plans") that provide for the delivery of shares pursuant to various market and performance-based incentive awards. As of December 31, 2022, there are 1.4 million shares available for future awards. Our policy is to issue new shares to satisfy share delivery obligations for awards made under the Plans.

The Plans permit awards of restricted share units to be granted to executives and other key employees. Generally, share units awarded prior to February 2020 vest in three years, while those awarded thereafter vest in equal annual increments over three years. Compensation expense related to the restricted share units is based upon the market price of the underlying common stock as of the date of the grant and is amortized over the applicable vesting period using the straight-line method. As of December 31, 2022, there was $6.8 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted share units expected to be recognized over a weighted-average remaining amortization period of 1.8 years.

Under the terms of the Plans, performance share awards were granted to executives and other key employees during 2022, 2021 and 2020. Each grant will vest if EnPro achieves specific financial objectives at the end of each three-year performance period. Additional amounts under these awards are paid out if objectives are exceeded, but some or all the awards may be forfeited if objectives are not met.

Performance shares earned at the end of a performance period, if any, for shares issued prior to 2020 were paid in actual shares of our common stock, less the number of shares equal in value to applicable withholding taxes if the employee chooses. Performance shares earned at the end of a performance period, if any, for awards granted in 2022, 2021, and 2020, will be paid in cash, less applicable withholding taxes if the employee chooses. Awards are forfeited if a grantee terminates employment, during the performance period, except in the case of retirement.

Compensation expense related to performance share awards payable in stock granted prior to 2020 was computed using the fair value of the awards at the date of grant. Potential shares to be issued for performance share awards granted prior to 2020 were subject to a market condition based on the performance of our stock, measured based upon a calculation of total shareholder return, compared to a group of peer companies. The fair value of these awards was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation methodology. Compensation expense for these awards was computed based upon this grant date fair value using the straight-line method over the applicable performance period.

88

Compensation expense related to the performance share awards payable in cash granted in 2022, 2021, and 2020 is computed using the fair value of the awards as of December 31, 2022. The fair value of these awards was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation methodology. Compensation issued for performance share awards is subject to a market conditions based on the performance of our stock, measured based upon a calculation of total shareholder return, compared to a group of peer companies. Compensation expense for these awards is computed based upon the calculated fair value at the end of the period using the straight-line method over the applicable performance period. The shares will be remeasured and compensation expense will be adjusted based on the current market-based estimate.

The Monte Carlo simulation model utilizes multiple input variables that determine the probability of satisfying the market condition stipulated in the award and calculates the fair value of each award. We issued performance share awards to eligible participants on February 15, 2022 and February 16, 2021. We used the following assumptions in determining the fair value of these awards:

|  | Expected stock price volatility | Annual expected dividend yield | Risk free interest rate |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Shares granted February 15, 2022 |  |  |  |
| EnPro Industries, Inc. | 33.1% | 1.01% | 4.26% |
| S&P 600 Capital Goods Index | 39.43% | n/a | 4.26% |
| Shares granted February 16, 2021 |  |  |  |
| EnPro Industries, Inc. | 47.32% | 1.40% | 0.22% |
| S&P 600 Capital Goods Index | 50.86% | n/a | 0.22% |

The expected volatility assumption for us and each member of the peer group is based on each entity's historical stock price volatility over a period equal to the length from the valuation date to the end of the performance cycle. The annual expected dividend yield is based on annual expected dividend payments and the stock price on the date of grant. The risk free rate equals the yield, as of the valuation date, on zero-coupon U.S. Treasury STRIPS that have a remaining term equal to the length of the remaining performance cycle.

As of December 31, 2022 there was $6.2 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested performance share awards to be paid in cash and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average vesting period of 1.5 years. All performance share awards payable in stock had vested and been issued prior to calendar 2022.

A summary of award activity under the Plans is as follows:

|  | Restricted Share Units |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
|  | Shares | Weighted- Average Grant Date Fair Value |
| Nonvested at December 31, 2021 | 183,158 | 70.07 |
| Granted | 61,330 | 107.94 |
| Vested | (79,357) | 69.51 |
| Forfeited | (24,634) | 74.29 |
| Shares settled for cash | (15,900) | 67.90 |
| Nonvested at December 31, 2022 | 124,597 | $88.52 |

The maximum potential number of shares to be issued at December 31, 2022 is represented by the restricted share units nonvested balance at December 31, 2022. We account for forfeitures when they occur as opposed to estimating the number of awards that are expected to vest as of the grant date.

During the first quarter of calendar 2020, 2021 and 2022, the Company granted Performance Shares to certain key employees which are payable in cash after a three-year vesting period. Actual payments to be made to participating employees will be based on an initial target amount, which is adjusted based on the relative three-year performance of Enpro's share price versus a set of peer companies. Expense related to each grant is recognized on a straight-line basis utilizing the best current estimate of the grant value at maturity. Expense recognized for calendar 2022, 2021 and 2020 was $7.8 million, $6.9 million

89

and $1.7 million, respectively. The total liability related to this Performance Share cash plan was $15.6 million at December 31, 2022, of which $7.5 million is classified as current.

Non-qualified and incentive stock options were granted in 2020, 2021, and 2022. No stock option has a term exceeding 10 years from the date of grant. All stock options were granted at not less than 100% of fair market value (as defined) on the date of grant. As of December 31, 2022, there was $2.4 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options.

The following table provides certain information with respect to stock options as of December 31, 2022:

| Range of Exercise Price | Stock Options Outstanding | Stock Options Exercisable | Weighted Average Exercise Price | Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Under $80.00 | 50,787 | 31,892 | $53.78 | 7.16 |
| Over $80.00 and under $90.00 | 69,510 | 21,689 | 80.73 | 8.18 |
| Over $90.00 | 64,633 | 3,418 | 106.47 | 9.11 |
| Total | 184,930 | 56,999 | $82.32 | 8.23 |

We determine the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes option pricing formula. Key inputs into this formula include expected term, expected volatility, expected dividend yield, and the risk-free interest rate. We use the closing stock price on the grant date for determining the fair value. This fair value is amortized on a straight line basis over the vesting period. All options issued vest in equal annual increments over three years with the exception of options granted on November 26, 2021 that vest equally at the end of one quarter years, one and one quarter years, and two and one quarter years.

The expected term represents the period that our stock options are expected to be outstanding, and is determined based on historical experience of similar awards, given the contractual terms of the awards, vesting schedules, and expectations of future employee behavior. The fair value of stock options reflects a volatility factor calculated using historical market data for EnPro's common stock. The dividend assumption is based on our current expectations for our dividend policy. We base the risk-free interest rate on the yield to maturity at the time of the stock option grant on zero-coupon U.S. government bonds having a remaining life equal to the option's expected life. When estimating forfeitures, we consider voluntary termination behaviors as well as analysis of actual option forfeitures.

The following assumptions were used to estimate the indicated fair value of the 2022 option awards:

|  | Grant Date |  |
| --- | --- | --- |
|  | February 15, 2022 | February 24, 2022 |
| Fair-value at grant date (per share) | $38.86 | $39.07 |

| Expected dividend yield | 1.35% | 1.24% | 1.14% | 1.26% | 1.74% |

The following assumptions were used to estimate the indicated fair value of the 2020 option awards:

|  | Grant Date |  |

Each non-employee director received an annual grant of common stock (or, at the directors election, phantom shares) equal in value to $110,000 in the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020. With respect to certain phantom shares awarded in prior years, we will pay each non-employee director in cash the fair market value of the director's phantom shares upon termination of service as a member of the board of directors. The remaining phantom shares granted will be paid out in the form of one share of our common stock for each phantom share, with the value of any fractional phantom shares paid in cash. Expense recognized in the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 related to these share and phantom share grants was $1.0 million, $1.0 million and $0.9 million, respectively. No cash payments were used to settle phantom shares in 2022, 2021 or 2020.

## 19. Business Segment Information

We aggregate our operating businesses into two reportable segments. The factors considered in determining our reportable segments are the economic similarity of the businesses, the nature of products sold, or solutions provided, the production processes and the types of customers and distribution methods. Our reportable segments are managed separately based on these differences.

Our Sealing Technologies segment designs and manufactures value-added products and solutions that safeguard a variety of critical environments, including: metallic, non-metallic and composite material gaskets, dynamic seals, compression packing, resilient metal seals, elastomeric seals, custom-engineered mechanical seals for applications in the aerospace industry and other markets, hydraulic components, expansion joints, sanitary gaskets, hoses and fittings for the hygienic process industries, fluid transfer products for the pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical industries, and heavy-duty commercial vehicle parts used in wheel-end and suspension components that customers rely upon to ensure safety on our roadways. These products are used in a variety of markets, including chemical and petrochemical processing, nuclear energy, food and biopharmaceutical processing, primary metal manufacturing, mining, water and waste treatment, heavy-duty trucking, aerospace, medical, filtration and semiconductor fabrication. In all of these industries, performance and durability of our proprietary products and solutions are vital for the safety and environmental protection of our customers processes. Many of our products and solutions are used in highly demanding applications oftentimes in incredibly harsh environments, e.g., where extreme temperatures, extreme pressures, corrosive environments, strict tolerances, and/or worn equipment create challenges for product performance. Sealing Technologies offers customers widely recognized applied engineering, innovation, process know how and enduring reliability, driving a lasting aftermarket for many of our solutions.

Our Advanced Surface Technologies (AST) segment applies proprietary technologies, processes, and capabilities to deliver a highly differentiated suite of products and solutions for the most challenging applications in high growth markets. The segment's products and solutions are used in highly demanding environments requiring performance, precision and repeatability, with a low tolerance for failure. The segment's solutions include cleaning, coating, testing, refurbishment and verification for critical components and assemblies used in state-of-the-art advanced node semiconductor manufacturing equipment. It designs, manufactures and sells specialized optical filters and proprietary thin-film coatings for the most challenging applications in the industrial technology, life sciences, and semiconductor markets and complex front-end wafer processing sub-systems, new and refurbished electrostatic chuck pedestals, and edge-welded metal bellows for the semiconductor equipment industry and for critical applications in the space, aerospace and defense markets. In many instances, AST capabilities drive solutions that enable the maintenance of our customers' processes through an entire life cycle.

We measure operating performance based on segment earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, and other selected items ('Adjusted Segment EBITDA'), which is segment revenue reduced by operating expenses and other costs identifiable with the segment, excluding acquisition and divestiture expenses, restructuring costs, impairment charges, non-controlling interest compensation, amortization of the fair value adjustment to acquisition date inventory, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted Segment EBITDA is not defined under GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies. Corporate expenses include general corporate administrative costs. Expenses not directly attributable to the segments, corporate expenses, net interest expense, gains and losses related to the sale of assets, and income taxes are not included in the computation of Adjusted Segment EBITDA. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those for EnPro.

Non-controlling interest compensation allocation represents compensation expense associated with a portion of the rollover equity from the acquisitions of LeanTeq and Alluxa being subject to reduction for certain types of employment terminations of the sellers. This expense is recorded in selling, general, and administrative expenses on our Consolidated Statements of Operations and is directly related to the terms of the acquisitions. This expense will continue to be recognized as compensation expense over the term of the put and call options associated with the acquisitions unless certain employment terminations have occurred. In the fourth quarter of 2022, EnPro acquired all of the LeanTeq non-controlling interests.

## 20. Commitments and Contingencies

### *General*

A description of certain environmental and other legal matters relating to certain of our subsidiaries is included in this section. In addition to the matters noted herein, we are from time to time subject to, and are presently involved in, other litigation and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. We believe the outcome of such other litigation and legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Expenses for administrative and legal proceedings are recorded when incurred.

### *Environmental*

Our facilities and operations are subject to federal, state and local environmental and occupational health and safety laws and regulations of the U.S. and foreign countries. We take a proactive approach in our efforts to comply with these laws and regulations as they relate to our manufacturing operations and in proposing and implementing any remedial plans that may be necessary. We also regularly conduct comprehensive environmental, health and safety audits at our facilities to maintain compliance and improve operational efficiency.

95

Although we believe past operations were in substantial compliance with the then applicable regulations, we or one or more of our subsidiaries are involved with various remediation activities or an investigation to determine responsibility for environmental conditions at 19 sites. At 12 of these sites, the future cost per site for us or our subsidiary is expected to exceed $100,000. Of these 19 sites, 18 are sites where we or one or more of our subsidiaries formerly conducted business operations but no longer do, and 1 is a site where we conduct manufacturing operations. Investigations have been completed for 16 sites. At 8 of these sites, remediation systems are operating while at the other 8 sites, our only obligation is to conduct periodic monitoring. Investigations are in progress at 3 sites. An investigation to determine responsibility for environmental conditions is ongoing at one site.

Our policy is to accrue environmental investigation and remediation costs when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. In general, due to uncertainties regarding, among other factors, changes to operating and monitoring requirements based on the ongoing performance of the remediation system and/or changes to applicable legal and regulatory requirements, we do not consider costs for remediation activities beyond five years to be reasonably estimable. To the extent that capital costs to be incurred more than five years out, such as costs for the construction or decommissioning of remediation systems, can be reasonable estimated such costs are included in our environmental reserves. For sites with multiple future projected cost scenarios for identified feasible investigation and remediation options where no one estimate is more likely than all the others, our policy is to accrue the lowest estimate among the range of estimates. The measurement of the liability is based on an evaluation of currently available facts with respect to each individual situation and takes into consideration factors such as existing technology, presently enacted laws and regulations and prior experience in the remediation of similar contaminated sites. Liabilities are established for all sites based on these factors. As assessments and remediation progress at individual sites, these liabilities are reviewed and adjusted to reflect additional technical data and legal information. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, we had accrued liabilities aggregating $42.1 million and $46.6 million, respectively, for estimated future expenditures relating to environmental contingencies. The current portion of our aggregate environmental liability at December 31, 2022, was $10.4 million. These amounts have been recorded on an undiscounted basis in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Given the uncertainties regarding the status of laws, regulations, enforcement policies, the impact of other parties potentially being fully or partially liable, technology and information related to individual sites, we do not believe it is possible to develop an estimate of the range of reasonably possible environmental loss in excess of our recorded liabilities.

We believe that our accruals for specific environmental liabilities are adequate based on currently available information. Based upon limited information regarding any incremental remediation or other actions that may be required at these sites, we cannot estimate any further loss or a reasonably possible range of loss related to these matters. Actual costs to be incurred in future periods may vary from estimates because of the inherent uncertainties in evaluating environmental exposures due to unknown and changing conditions, changing government regulations and legal standards regarding liability.

#### *Lower Passaic River Study Area*

Based on our prior ownership of Crucible Steel Corporation a/k/a Crucible, Inc. ('Crucible'), we may have additional contingent liabilities in one or more significant environmental matters. One such matter, which is included in the 19 sites referred to above, is the Lower Passaic River Study Area of the Diamond Alkali Superfund Site in New Jersey. Crucible operated a steel mill abutting the Passaic River in Harrison, New Jersey from the 1930s until 1974, which was one of many industrial operations on the river dating back to the 1800s. Certain contingent environmental liabilities related to this site were retained by a predecessor of EnPro Holdings when it sold a majority interest in Crucible Materials Corporation (the successor of Crucible) in 1985. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (the 'EPA') notified our subsidiary in September 2003 that it is a potentially responsible party ('PRP') for Superfund response actions in the lower 17-mile stretch of the Passaic River known as the Lower Passaic River Study Area.

EnPro Holdings and approximately 70 of the numerous other PRPs, known as the Cooperating Parties Group, are parties to a May 2007 Administrative Order on Consent with the EPA to perform a Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study ('RI/FS') of the contaminants in the Lower Passaic River Study Area. In September 2018, EnPro Holdings withdrew from the Cooperating Parties Group but remains a party to the May 2007 Administrative Order on Consent. The RI/FS was completed and submitted to the EPA at the end of April 2015. The RI/FS recommends a targeted dredge and cap remedy with monitored natural recovery and adaptive management for the Lower Passaic River Study Area. The cost of such remedy is estimated to be $726 million. Previously, on April 11, 2014, the EPA released its Focused Feasibility Study (the 'FFS') with its proposed plan for remediating the lower eight miles of the Lower Passaic River Study Area. The FFS calls for bank-to-bank dredging and capping of the riverbed of that portion of the river and estimates a range of the present value of aggregate remediation costs of approximately $953 million to approximately $1.73 billion, although estimates of the costs and the timing of costs are inherently imprecise. On March 3, 2016, the EPA issued the final Record of Decision (ROD) as to the remedy for the lower eight miles of the Lower Passaic River Study Area, with the maximum estimated cost being reduced by the EPA from $1.73 billion to $1.38 billion, primarily due to a reduction in the amount of cubic yards of material that will be dredged. In October

96

2016, Occidental Chemical Corporation, the successor to the entity that operated the Diamond Alkali chemical manufacturing facility, reached an agreement with the EPA to develop the design for this proposed remedy at an estimated cost of $165 million. The EPA has estimated that it will take approximately four years to develop this design. On June 30, 2018, Occidental Chemical Corporation sued over 120 parties, including the Company, in the United States District Court for New Jersey seeking recovery of response costs under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act ('CERCLA').

No final allocations of responsibility have been made among the numerous PRPs that have received notices from the EPA, there are numerous identified PRPs that have not yet received PRP notices from the EPA, and there are likely many PRPs that have not yet been identified.

On April 14, 2021, the EPA issued its proposed remedy for the upper nine miles of the river, with an estimated present value cost of approximately $441 million. The proposed remedy would involve dredging and capping of the river sediment as an interim remedy followed by a period of monitoring to evaluate the response of the river system to the interim remedy.

When the EPA initiated the allocation process in 2017, it explained that a fair, carefully structured, information-based allocation was necessary to promote settlements. With the completion of the allocation process, in the second quarter of 2021 the EPA began settlement negotiations with the parties that participated in the allocation process, including EnPro. In September 2022, EnPro paid $5.9 million as part of a settlement between those parties and EPA. The payment will be held in escrow until court approval of the settlement. Our reserve for this site at December 31, 2022 was $0.7 million. Further adjustments to our reserve for this site are possible as new or additional information becomes available.

Except with respect to the Lower Passaic River Study Area, we are unable to estimate a reasonably possible range of loss related to any other contingent environmental liability based on our prior ownership of Crucible. See the section entitled 'Crucible Steel Corporation a/k/a Crucible, Inc.' in this footnote for additional information.

#### *Arizona Uranium Mines*

EnPro Holdings has received notices from the EPA asserting that it is a potentially responsible party under the CERCLA as the successor to a former operator of eight uranium mines in Arizona. The former operator conducted operations at the mines from 1954 to 1957. In the 1990s, remediation work performed by others at these sites consisted of capping the exposed areas of the mines. We have previously reserved amounts of probable loss associated with these mines, principally including the cost of the investigative work to be conducted at such mines. We entered into an Administrative Settlement Agreement and Order on Consent for Interim Removal Action with the EPA effective November 7, 2017 for the performance of this work. In 2020, EPA initiated group discussions with EnPro Holdings and other potentially responsible parties to resolve various technical issues, including the development of cleanup standards. Based on these discussions and subsequent discussions with other responsible parties with similar sites, we have concluded that further remedial work beyond maintenance of and minor repairs to the existing caps is probable, and we have evaluated the feasibility of various remediation scenarios. Our reserve at December 31, 2022 for this site was $12.7 million, which reflects the low end of the range of our reasonably likely liability with respect to these sites. We are not able at this time to estimate the upper end of a range of liability with respect to these sites.

On October 18, 2021, the United States District Court for the District of Arizona approved and entered a Consent Decree pursuant to which the U.S government will reimburse the Company for 35% of necessary costs of response, as defined in 42 U.S.C. section 9601(25), previously or to be in the future incurred by the Company which arise out of or in connection with releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances at or emanating from the mine sites. As of December 31, 2022, we expect contributions of $3.3 million from the U.S. government towards remediation of the site. This amount was included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2022.

In addition to the two sites discussed above, we have additional reserves of $28.7 million, of which $14.6 million pertains to implementing and managing a solution to clean trichloroethylene soil and groundwater contamination at the location of a former operation in Water Valley, Mississippi. These amounts represent a reasonable estimate of our probable future costs to remediate these sites given the facts and circumstances known at December 31, 2022.

#### *Crucible Steel Corporation a/k/a Crucible, Inc.*

Crucible, which was engaged primarily in the manufacture and distribution of high technology specialty metal products, was a wholly owned subsidiary of EnPro Holdings until 1983 when its assets and liabilities were distributed to a new Coltec subsidiary, Crucible Materials Corporation. EnPro Holdings sold a majority of the outstanding shares of Crucible Materials Corporation in 1985 and divested its remaining minority interest in 2004. Crucible Materials Corporation filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in May 2009 and is no longer conducting operations.

97

We have certain ongoing obligations, which are included in other liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets, including workers' compensation, retiree medical and other retiree benefit matters, in addition to those mentioned previously related to EnPro Holdings' period of ownership of Crucible. Based on EnPro Holdings' prior ownership of Crucible, we may have certain additional contingent liabilities, including liabilities in one or more significant environmental matters included in the matters discussed in 'Environmental' above. Except with respect to those matters for which we have an accrued liability as discussed in 'Environmental' above, we are unable to estimate a reasonably possible range of loss related to these contingent liabilities.

#### *Warranties*

We provide warranties on many of our products. The specific terms and conditions of these warranties vary depending on the product and the market in which the product is sold. We record a liability based upon estimates of the costs we may incur under our warranties based upon a review of historical warranty experience and information regarding the number, nature, and dollar valuation of specific warranty claims being made by customers. Adjustments are made to the liability as claims data and historical experience necessitate.

Changes in the carrying amount of the product warranty liability for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 are as follows:

|  | 2022 | 2021 | 2020 |
