CURTISS-WRIGHT CORPORATION and SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES to CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Curtiss-Wright Corporation along with its subsidiaries (we, the Corporation, or the Company) is a global integrated business that provides highly engineered products, solutions, and services mainly to aerospace & defense (A&D) markets, as well as critical technologies in demanding commercial power, process, and industrial markets.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Curtiss-Wright and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Corporation have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of these financial statements.
Management is required to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the accompanying financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The most significant of these estimates includes the estimate of costs to complete using the over-time revenue recognition accounting method, pension plan and postretirement obligation assumptions, estimates for inventory obsolescence, fair value estimates around assets and assumed liabilities from acquisitions, estimates for the valuation and useful lives of intangible assets, legal reserves, and the estimate of future environmental costs. Changes in estimates of contract sales, costs, and profits are recognized using the cumulative catch-up method of accounting. This method recognizes in the current period the cumulative effect of the changes on current and prior periods. Accordingly, the effect of the changes on future periods of contract performance is recognized as if the revised estimate had been the original estimate. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, there were no significant changes in estimated contract costs. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been reflected in these financial statements.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Corporation’s 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of trends or of the operating results for a full year.

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”), which requires disclosure of significant reportable segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) and included within the Corporation's measure of segment profit or loss. ASU 2023-07 also requires that all disclosures around segment profit or loss and assets be provided on both an annual and interim basis. The Company adopted this standard as of December 31, 2024 and included revised disclosures within Note 11 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
New accounting pronouncements not yet adopted
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Improvement to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires enhanced income tax disclosures, including disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation table and disaggregated information related to income taxes paid. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning with the year ending December 31, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
In December 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires disclosure of disaggregated information about certain income statement line items in the notes to the financial statements.

of internal-use software costs. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning with the year ending December 31, 2028. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
2. REVENUE
The Corporation recognizes revenue when control of a promised good and/or service is transferred to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Corporation expects to be entitled to in exchange for that good and/or service.
Performance Obligations
The Corporation identifies a performance obligation for each promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. As part of its assessment, the Corporation considers all goods and/or services promised in the contract, regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or implied by customary business practices. The Corporation’s contracts may contain either a single performance obligation, including the promise to transfer individual goods or services that are not separately distinct within the context of the respective contracts, or multiple performance obligations. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Corporation allocates the overall transaction price to each performance obligation using standalone selling prices, where available, or utilizes estimates for each distinct good or service in the contract where standalone prices are not available.
The Corporation’s performance obligations are satisfied either at a point-in-time or on an over-time basis. Typically, over-time revenue recognition is based on the utilization of an input measure used to measure progress, such as costs incurred to date relative to total estimated costs. If a performance obligation does not qualify for over-time revenue recognition, revenue is then recognized at the point-in-time in which control of the distinct good or service is transferred to the customer, typically based upon the terms of delivery.
The following table illustrates the approximate percentage of revenue recognized for performance obligations satisfied over-time versus at a point-in-time for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024:

| Three Months Ended |  | Nine Months Ended
| September 30, |  | September 30,
| 2025 |  | 2024 |  | 2025 |  | 2024
Over-time | 52 | % |  | 49 | % |  | 52 | % |  | 49 | %
Point-in-time | 48 | % |  | 51 | % |  | 48 | % |  | 51 | %

Contract backlog represents the remaining performance obligations that have not yet been recognized as revenue. Backlog includes deferred revenue and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. Total backlog was approximately $3.9 billion as of September 30, 2025, of which the Corporation expects to recognize approximately 90% as net sales over the next 36 months. The remainder will be recognized thereafter.
Disaggregation of Revenue
The following table presents the Corporation’s total net sales disaggregated by end market and customer type:

Total Net Sales by End Market and Customer Type | Three Months Ended |  | Nine Months Ended
| September 30, |  | September 30,

Contract Balances
Timing of revenue recognition and cash collection may result in billed receivables, unbilled receivables (contract assets), and deferred revenue (contract liabilities) on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Corporation’s contract assets primarily relate to its rights to consideration for work completed but not billed as of the reporting date. Contract assets are transferred to billed receivables when the rights to consideration become unconditional. This is typical in situations where amounts are billed as work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms or upon achievement of contractual milestones. The Corporation’s contract liabilities primarily consist of customer advances received prior to revenue being earned. Revenue recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 included in the contract liabilities balance as of January 1, 2025 was approximately $65 million and $276 million, respectively. Revenue recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 included in the contract liabilities balance as of January 1, 2024 was approximately $47 million and $207 million, respectively. Contract assets and contract liabilities are reported in the "Receivables, net" and "Deferred revenue" lines, respectively, within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
3. ACQUISITIONS
The Corporation continually evaluates potential acquisitions that either strategically fit within the Corporation’s existing portfolio or expand the Corporation’s portfolio into new product lines or adjacent markets. The Corporation has completed numerous acquisitions that have been accounted for as business combinations and have resulted in the recognition of goodwill in the Corporation's financial statements. This goodwill arises because the acquisition purchase price reflects the future earnings and cash flow potential in excess of the earnings and cash flows attributable to the current product and customer set at the time of acquisition. Thus, goodwill inherently includes the know-how of the assembled workforce, the ability of the workforce to further improve the technology and product offerings, and the expected cash flows resulting from these efforts. Goodwill may also include expected synergies resulting from the complementary strategic fit these businesses bring to existing operations.
The Corporation allocates the purchase price at the date of acquisition based upon its understanding of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. In the months after closing, as the Corporation obtains additional information about these assets and liabilities, including through tangible and intangible asset appraisals, and as the Corporation learns more about the newly acquired business, it is able to refine the estimates of fair value and more accurately allocate the purchase price. Only items identified as of the acquisition date are considered for subsequent adjustment. The Corporation will make appropriate adjustments to the purchase price allocation prior to completion of the measurement period, as required.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Corporation did not complete any acquisitions.
During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Corporation acquired two businesses for an aggregate purchase price of $235 million. The Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 includes $63 million of total net sales and $6 million of net losses from the Corporation's 2024 acquisitions.
The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition for both 2024 acquisitions, inclusive of subsequent purchase price adjustments.

The Corporation did not make any contributions to the Curtiss-Wright Pension Plan during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and does not expect to do so throughout the remainder of the year. Contributions to the foreign benefit plans are not expected to be material in 2025.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recognized settlement charges related to the retirement of a former executive. The settlement charges represent events that are accounted for under guidance on employers’ accounting for settlements and curtailments of defined benefit pension plans.
Defined Contribution Retirement Plan
The Company also maintains a defined contribution plan for all non-union employees who are not currently receiving final or career average pay benefits for its U.S. subsidiaries. The employer contributions include both employer match and non-elective contribution components up to a maximum employer contribution of 7% of eligible compensation. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the expense relating to the plan was $6.3 million and $22.4 million, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the expense relating to the plan was $5.7 million and $20.0 million, respectively.
10. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Diluted earnings per share was computed based on the weighted-average number of shares outstanding plus all potentially dilutive common shares. A reconciliation of basic to diluted shares used in the earnings per share calculation is as follows:

| Three Months Ended |  | Nine Months Ended
| September 30, |  | September 30,
(In thousands) | 2025 |  | 2024 |  | 2025 |  | 2024
Basic weighted-average shares outstanding | 37,430 |  |  | 38,208 |  |  | 37,582 |  |  | 38,245 |
Dilutive effect of deferred stock compensation | 233 |  |  | 243 |  |  | 204 |  |  | 206 |
Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding | 37,663 |  |  | 38,451 |  |  | 37,786 |  |  | 38,451 |

There were approximately 5,000 and 33,000 shares issuable under equity-based awards that were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, respectively, as they were anti-dilutive based on the average stock price during the period. There were no anti-dilutive equity-based awards for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, respectively.
11. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Corporation’s measure of segment profit or loss is operating income. Interest expense and income taxes are not reported on an operating segment basis as they are not considered in the segments’ performance evaluation by the Corporation’s chief operating decision-maker, its Chief Executive Officer.
Operating results by reportable segment were as follows:

13. CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS
From time to time, the Corporation and its subsidiaries are involved in legal proceedings that are incidental to the operation of our business. Some of these proceedings allege damages relating to asbestos and environmental exposures, intellectual property matters, copyright infringement, personal injury claims, employment and employee benefit matters, government contract issues, commercial or contractual disputes, and acquisitions or divestitures. The Corporation continues to defend vigorously against all claims. Although the ultimate outcome of any legal matter cannot be predicted with certainty, based on present information, including assessment of the merits of the particular claim, as well as current accruals and insurance coverage, the Corporation does not expect that such legal proceedings will have a material adverse impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
Legal Proceedings
The Corporation has been named in a number of lawsuits that allege injury from exposure to asbestos. To date, the Corporation has not been found liable for or paid any material sum of money in settlement in any asbestos-related case. The Corporation believes its minimal use of asbestos in its past operations as well as its acquired businesses’ operations and the relatively non-friable condition of asbestos in its historical products makes it unlikely that it will face material liability in any asbestos litigation, whether individually or in the aggregate. The Corporation maintains insurance coverage and indemnification agreements for these potential liabilities and believes adequate coverage exists to cover any unanticipated asbestos liability.
Letters of Credit and Other Financial Arrangements
The Corporation enters into standby letters of credit agreements and guarantees with financial institutions and customers primarily relating to guarantees of repayment, future performance on certain contracts to provide products and services, and to secure advance payments from certain international customers. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were $26 million and $21 million of stand-by letters of credit outstanding, respectively, and $11 million and $15 million of bank guarantees outstanding, respectively. In addition, the Corporation is required to provide the Nuclear Regulatory Commission financial assurance demonstrating its ability to cover the cost of decommissioning its Cheswick, Pennsylvania facility upon closure, though the Corporation does not intend to close this facility. The Corporation has provided this financial assurance in the form of a $40 million surety bond.
14. RESTRUCTURING COSTS
In 2024, the Corporation commenced restructuring activities across all of its segments to support its ongoing effort of improving operating efficiency ("2024 Restructuring Program"). These activities, which primarily include workforce reductions, consolidation of facilities, and costs related to legal entity restructuring, have been substantially completed as of September 30, 2025. Fo r the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, these restructuring activities resulted in pre-tax charges of approximately $0.8 million and $2.8 million respectively, compared to pre-tax charges of approximately $3.3 million

(UNAUDITED)
and $7.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the restructuring liability associated with these restructuring activities was $0.4 million and $3.0 million, respectively. These balances are reported within Other Current Liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION and ANALYSIS of
FINANCIAL CONDITION and RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, continued
COMPANY ORGANIZATION
Curtiss-Wright Corporation is a global integrated business that provides highly engineered products, solutions, and services mainly to A&D markets, as well as critical technologies in demanding commercial power, process, and industrial markets. We report our operations through our Aerospace & Industrial, Defense Electronics, and Naval & Power segments. We operate across a diversified array of niche markets through engineering and technological leadership, precision manufacturing, and strong relationships with our customers. Approximately 70% of our 2025 revenues are expected to be generated from A&D-related markets.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) is intended to help the reader understand the results of operations and financial condition of the Corporation for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2025. The financial information as of September 30, 2025 should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 contained in our Form 10-K.
The MD&A is organized into the following sections: Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings, Results by Business Segment, and Liquidity and Capital Resources. Our discussion will be focused on the overall results of operations followed by a more detailed discussion of those results within each of our reportable segments.
Our three reportable segments are generally concentrated in a few end markets; however, each may have sales across several end markets. An end market is defined as an area of demand for products and services. The sales for the relevant markets will be discussed throughout the MD&A.
Analytical Definitions
Throughout management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, the terms “incremental” and “organic” are used to explain changes from period to period. The term “incremental” is used to highlight the impact acquisitions and divestitures had on the current year results. The results of operations for acquisitions are incremental for the first twelve months from the date of acquisition. The definition of “organic” excludes the effects of costs associated with our 2024 Restructuring Program and foreign currency translation.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION and ANALYSIS of
FINANCIAL CONDITION and RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, continued
Operating income in the third quarter increased $21 million, or 15%, to $166 million, and operating margin increased 100 basis points to 19.1% compared with the same period in 2024, due to increases across all segments. In the Aerospace & Industrial segment, increases in operating income and operating margin were primarily due to favorable overhead absorption on higher sales, the benefits of the Company's restructuring initiatives, and favorable product mix. Operating income and operating
margin in the Defense Electronics segment increased primarily due to favorable absorption on higher sales as well as the
benefits from our operational excellence initiatives. In the Naval & Power segment, operating income increased primarily due to favorable overhead absorption on higher sales as well as the benefits from our operational excellence initiatives, while operating margin was negatively impacted primarily by first year purchase accounting costs associated with our acquisition of I&C Solutions.
Operating income during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased $78 million, or 21%, to $452 million, and operating margin increased 140 basis points to 17.7%, compared with the same period in 2024, due to increases across all segments. In the Aerospace & Industrial segment, increases in operating income and operating margin were primarily due to favorable overhead absorption on higher sales, the benefits of the Company's restructuring initiatives, and favorable foreign currency translation. Operating income and operating margin in the Defense Electronics segment increased primarily due to favorable absorption on higher sales, the benefits from our operational excellence initiatives, and favorable mix on defense electronics products. In the Naval & Power segment, increases in operating income and operating margin were primarily due to favorable overhead absorption on higher sales, an unfavorable prior year period naval contract adjustment that did not recur in the current period, as well as the benefits from our operational excellence initiatives. These increases were partially offset by higher investment in research and development.
Non-segment operating expense in the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased $2 million, or 18%, to $11 million, and $1 million, or 3%, to $32 million, primarily due to higher corporate costs.
Interest expense in the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2025 decreased $1 million, or 8%, to $10 million, and $2 million, or 6%, to $31 million, respectively, primarily due to lower borrowings under our revolving Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement” or “credit facility”) as well as the repayment of our $90 million 3.85% Senior Notes in February 2025.
Other income, net in the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2025 decreased $5 million, or 47%, to $5 million, and $6 million, or 21%, to $22 million, respectively, primarily due to lower interest income and higher overall pension costs against the comparable prior year periods.
The effective tax rate of 22.5% in the third quarter decreased compared to an effective tax rate of 22.6% in the prior year period, primarily due to the full year estimated benefit of the prior year’s legal entity restructuring in the current period. The effective tax rate of 21.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 decreased as compared to an effective tax rate of 22.2%, primarily due to the full year estimated benefit of the prior year’s legal entity restructuring in the current period, partially offset by higher provisional tax expense associated with foreign withholding taxes in the current period.
Comprehensive income in the third quarter was $107 million, compared to comprehensive income of $141 million in the prior year period. The change was primarily due to the following:
•Foreign currency translation adjustments in the third quarter resulted in a $14 million comprehensive loss, compared to a $31 million comprehensive gain in the prior year period. The comprehensive loss during the current period was primarily attributed to decreases in t he British Pound and Canadian dollar.
•Net earnings increas ed $14 million, primarily due to higher operating income.
Comprehensive income during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $405 million, compared to comprehensive income of $297 million in the prior year period. The change was primarily due to the following:
•Foreign currenc y translation adjustments for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 resulted in a $62 million comprehensive gain, c ompared to a $10 million comprehensive gain in the prior period. The co mprehensive gain during the current period was primarily attributed to increases in the British Pound and Canadian dollar.
•Net earnings increased $60 million, pr imarily due to higher operating income.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION and ANALYSIS of

New orders in the third quarter increased $67 million from the comparable prior year period, primarily due to the timing of naval defense orders as well as an increase in orders for commercial nuclear products in the Naval & Power segment. New orders also benefited from an increase in orders in the Aerospace & Industrial segment for sensors and actuation products as well as surface treatment services within our A&D markets. These increases were partially offset by the timing of orders on aerospace and ground defense equipment in the Defense Electronics segment, including embedded computing and tactical communications products.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Sources and Use of Cash
We derive the majority of our operating cash inflow from receipts on the sale of goods and services and cash outflow for the procurement of materials and labor; cash flow is therefore subject to market fluctuations and conditions. Most of our long-term contracts allow for several billing points (progress or milestone) that provide us with cash receipts as costs are incurred throughout the project rather than upon contract completion, thereby reducing working capital requirements. In some cases, these payments can exceed the costs incurred on a project.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION and ANALYSIS of
FINANCIAL CONDITION and RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, continued
Net cash used for investing activities decreased $17 million from the prior year period, primarily due to our acquisition of WSC in the prior year period. This decrease was partially offset by higher capital expenditures in the Aerospace & Industrial and Naval & Power segments during the current period.
Net cash used for financing activities increased $267 million from the prior year period, primarily due to higher repurchases of common stock during the current period as well as the repayment of our $90 million 3.85% Senior Notes in February 2025. Refer to the "Financing Activities" section below for further details.
Financing Activities
Debt
The Corporation’s debt outstanding had an average interest rate of 3.8% for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and 3.8% for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. The Corporation’s average debt outstanding was $982 million and $988 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and $1.0 billion for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively.
Credit Agreement
As of September 30, 2025, the Corporation had approximately $10 million of outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement and $26 million in letters of credit supported by the Credit Agreement. The unused credit available under the Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2025 was $714 million, which could be borrowed without violating any of our debt covenants.
Repurchase of common stock
During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Corporation repurchased approximately 684,000 shares of its common stock for $325 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Corporation repurchased approximately 455,000 shares of its common stock for $138 million.
Cash Utilization
Management continually evaluates cash utilization alternatives, including share repurchases, acquisitions, and increased dividends to determine the most beneficial use of available capital resources. We believe that our cash and cash equivalents, cash flow from operations, available borrowings under the credit facility, and ability to raise additional capital through the credit markets are sufficient to meet both the short-term and long-term capital needs of the organization.
Dividends
The Corporation made dividend payments of $17 million and $16 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, respectively. Additionally, beginning in the second quarter of 2025, the Corporation increased its quarterly dividend to $0.24 per share.
Debt Compliance
As of the date of this report, we were in compliance with all debt agreements and credit facility covenants, including our most restrictive covenant, which is our debt to capitalization limit of 60%. The debt to capitalization limit is a measure of our indebtedness (as defined per the notes purchase agreement and credit facility) to capitalization, where capitalization equals debt plus equity, and is the same for and applies to all of our debt agreements and credit facility.
As of September 30, 2025, we had the ability to borrow additional debt of $2.7 billion without violating our debt to capitalization covenant.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Preparation of these statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by the application of our accounting policies. Critical accounting policies are those that require application of management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods. A summary of significant accounting policies and a description of accounting policies that are considered critical may be found in our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on February 13, 2025, in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 1, and the Critical Accounting Policies section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
There have been no material changes in our market risk during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Information regarding market risk and market risk management policies is more fully described in "Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk" of our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As of September 30, 2025, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of September 30, 2025 insofar as they are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and they include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
During the quarter ended September 30, 2025, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings that are incidental to the operation of our business. Some of these proceedings allege damages relating to asbestos and environmental exposures, intellectual property matters, copyright infringement, personal injury claims, employment and employee benefit matters, government contract issues, commercial or contractual disputes, and acquisitions or divestitures. We continue to defend vigorously against all claims. Although the ultimate outcome of any legal matter cannot be predicted with certainty, based on present information, including assessment of the merits of the particular claim, as well as current accruals and insurance coverage, we do not believe that the disposition of any of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
We have been named in pending lawsuits that allege injury from exposure to asbestos. To date, we have not been found liable or paid any material sum of money in settlement in any asbestos-related case. We believe that the minimal use of asbestos in our past operations and the relatively non-friable condition of asbestos in our products make it unlikely that we will face material liability in any asbestos litigation, whether individually or in the aggregate. We maintain insurance coverage for these potential liabilities and we believe adequate coverage exists to cover any unanticipated asbestos liability.
Item 1A. RISK FACTORS
There have been no material changes in our Risk Factors during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Information regarding our Risk Factors is more fully described in "Item 1A. Risk Factors" of our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Each of the 10b5-1 Trading Arrangements in the above table included a representation from the officer to the broker administering the plan that such individual (i) was not in possession of any material nonpublic information regarding the Company or the securities subject to the plan and (ii) the plan was entered into good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade securities law.
