Founded in 1904, ESAB Corporation (“ESAB” or the “Company”) is a focused premier industrial compounder. ESAB provides its partners with fabrication technology advanced equipment, consumables, gas control equipment, robotics and digital solutions. The Company’s rich history of innovative products and workflow solutions and its business system ESAB Business Excellence (“EBX”) enables the Company’s purpose of Shaping the world we imagineTM. The Company conducts its operations through two reportable segments. These segments consist of the “Americas,” which includes operations in North America and South America, and “EMEA & APAC,” which includes Europe, Middle East, India, Africa and Asia Pacific. On April 4, 2022, ESAB Corporation completed its spin-off from Colfax Corporation (“Colfax,” “Enovis” or “Former Parent”) becoming an independent, publicly traded company (the “Separation”).

The Company’s fiscal year ends December 31. The Company’s third quarter ends on the last business day of the 13th week after the end of the prior quarter. As used herein, the third quarter results for 2024 and 2023 refer to the 13-week periods ended September 27, 2024 and September 29, 2023, respectively.

Russia and Ukraine Conflict

The invasion of Ukraine by Russia and the sanctions imposed in response have increased the level of economic and political uncertainty. While ESAB continues to closely monitor the situation and evaluate options, the Company is meeting current contractual obligations while addressing applicable laws and regulations. For the three and nine months ended September 27, 2024, Russia represented approximately 6% and 5% of the Company’s total revenue, respectively, and approximately $2 million and $12 million of its Net income, respectively. Russia also has approximately 5% of the Company’s total net assets excluding any goodwill allocation as of September 27, 2024. In case of a disposition of the Russia business, a portion of goodwill would need to be allocated and disposed of at the relative fair value attributable to the Russia business. Russia has a cumulative translation loss of approximately $119 million as of September 27, 2024, which could be realized upon a transition out. The Company is closely monitoring developments in Ukraine and Russia. Changes in laws and regulations or other factors impacting the Company’s ability to fulfill contractual obligations could have an adverse effect on the results of operations and cash flows.
