Note 12 – Equity

In December 2020, the Board of Directors of Gentherm Incorporated (“Board of Directors”) authorized a stock repurchase program (the “2020 Stock Repurchase Program”). Under the 2020 Stock Repurchase Program, the Company was authorized to repurchase up to $150,000 of its issued and outstanding Common Stock over a three-year period, expiring December 15, 2023. On November 1, 2023, the Board of Directors extended the maturity date of the program from December 15, 2023 to June 30, 2024.

Repurchases may be made, from time to time, in amounts and at prices the Company deems appropriate, subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements, debt covenants and other considerations. Any such repurchases may be executed using open market purchases, privately negotiated agreements or other transactions. Repurchases may be funded from cash on hand, available borrowings or proceeds from potential debt or other capital markets sources. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company did not make any repurchases under the 2020 Stock Repurchase Program. The 2020 Stock Repurchase Program had $37,491 of repurchase authorization remaining as of March 31, 2024.

On November 1, 2023, following the above-noted extension, the Company entered into a Confirmation of Issuer Forward Repurchase Transaction agreement (the “ASR Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A. (“Bank of America”) that provides for the Company to purchase shares of Common Stock in an aggregate amount of $60,000 (the “ASR Repurchase Amount”) under the 2020 Stock Repurchase Program.

Under the terms of the ASR Agreement, on November 2, 2023, the Company paid $60,000 to Bank of America for an initial purchase of approximately 1.22 million shares of Common Stock, representing 80% of ASR Repurchase Amount. The final settlement date is scheduled to occur in the second quarter of 2024. As of the final settlement date, Bank of America may be required to deliver additional shares of Common Stock to the Company or the Company may be required to deliver shares of Common Stock to Bank America, such that the Company’s repurchase of Common Stock under the ASR Agreement in aggregate will equal the ASR Repurchase Amount (based on the average of the daily volume-weighted average prices of the Common Stock during the term of the ASR Agreement, less a specified discount). There is no cash requirement as of the final settlement date.

The ASR Agreement contains provisions customary for agreements of this type, including the mechanisms to determine the number of shares of Common Stock that will be delivered at settlement, the required timing of delivery of the shares of Common Stock, the circumstances under which Bank of America is permitted to make adjustments to the transaction terms, the circumstances under which the ASR Agreement may be accelerated, extended or terminated early by Bank of America and specified representations and warranties of each party to the other party.
