DPC Holdings PLC
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
($ Amounts in millions, unless otherwise indicated)
1.Nature of the business
DPC Holdings PLC, previously known as DPC Holdings Limited (the “Company”), is the ultimate holding company within the Doncasters Group which sells products under the “Doncasters” brand name. Doncasters is a vertically integrated manufacturer of high-quality engineered precision components for aeroengines, industrial gas turbines and other specialist high performance applications. Doncasters operates from
2.Basis of presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read together with our audited financial statements and accompanying notes for year ended December 31, 2025, included in the Company’s Prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, as amended (the “Prospectus”), which was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 26, 2026. The Prospectus was filed in connection with the Company’s initial public offering, of its shares on the New York Stock Exchange, which was completed on June 26, 2026 (the “IPO”). Immediately prior to the consummation of the IPO, the Company’s legal status changed from a Jersey private company to a Jersey public limited company and its name changed from DPC Holdings Limited to DPC Holdings PLC. The Group’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the SEC regarding interim financial reporting. As permitted under those rules, certain Notes or other financial information that are normally required by U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted, and accordingly the balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 included herein has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the Group’s annual financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation of the Group’s financial information. The interim results of operations for the three and nine-month periods ended September 27, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026 or for any other interim period or for any other future year. The Group prepares its interim financial information using a 4 4 5 reporting calendar, whereby each of the first three quarters comprises two four-week periods and one five-week period, with each quarter ending on the last Sunday of the relevant reporting period. The fourth quarter is aligned to the statutory year-end and therefore reflects the period to December 31. Accordingly, interim reporting periods do not correspond to calendar months, and year to date results for the interim periods are based on the 4 4 5 calendar, with the final quarter adjusting to align the full financial year with the calendar year-end. Any reference in these notes to the applicable guidance is meant to refer to authoritative U.S. GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).
Unless otherwise stated, the accounting policies of the Group are consistent with those described in Note 2 of the annual consolidated financial statements included within the Prospectus.
Use of estimates
The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in the Group’s condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, impairment/(reversal) of disposal group held-for-sale, management incentive plan, inventory provision, and unrecognized tax benefits related to income taxes. The Group bases its estimates on historical experience, known trends and other market-specific or other relevant factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates when there are changes in circumstances, facts and experience. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they are identified. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates upon subsequent resolution of the identified matters.

Recently adopted and recently issued accounting guidance
Accounting standards issued but not yet adopted
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The amendments in this ASU should be applied on a prospective basis and retrospective application is permitted. For public business entities, ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Group will apply the amendments in this ASU for the first time in the annual period ending December 31, 2026, under the non-public business entities adoption timeline available for emerging growth companies and is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of ASU 2023-09 on the consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The amendments in this update require disclosure of specified information about certain costs and expenses. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Group will apply the amendments in this ASU for the first time in the annual period ending December 31, 2027, under the non-public business entities adoption timeline available for emerging growth companies and is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of ASU 2024-03 on the consolidated financial statements.

4.Segment information
Operating segments are defined as distinguishable components of the enterprise which are evident from internal organizational structure and for which separate financial information is evaluated regularly by the Group’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) in order to assess each segment’s performance and to allocate resources to them. The CODM of the Group is the Chief Executive Officer.
The Group used the management approach to identify its reportable segments, as required by ASC 280. The management approach is based on the way the Group’s management organizes and evaluates its operations and based on the way the Group’s operations are managed and reported in its internal financial reporting system. The determination of the Group’s operating segments is based on its major product categories, which are Engine Products and Turbo Wheels. Engine Products is split into
Engine Products – Europe. The Engine Products - Europe segment comprises of the sites Chard, Deritend, Bochum and Ross & Catherall. The segment manufactures complex, highly engineered precision cast components and superalloys which are primarily used in the IGT end market with some elements of Aerospace.
Engine Products - North America. The Engine Products - North America segment comprises of the sites Groton, Oxford, Springfield, Unipol Mexico, Long Beach and our greenfield superalloy facility in Auburn, Alabama, which is under construction. The segment manufactures complex, highly engineered precision cast components and superalloys which are primarily used in the Aerospace end market with some elements of IGT.
Turbo Wheels. Whilst the other two operating segments are formed based on geographical location of the sites, this segment is based on the market served, i.e. automotive. The Turbo Wheels segment manufactures turbocharger wheels and other precision components for commercial vehicle and passenger car turbo engines, focusing on enhancing engine efficiency and performance. The Turbo Wheels segment comprises of the sites Trucast UK, Trucast US, Uni-Pol China, Uni-Pol India and Ivostud (all locations).
The measure of profit and loss that is used by the CODM to evaluate the performance of these operating segments is Segment Adjusted EBITDA. The CODM uses Segment Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate each segment’s performance and allocate resources as it provides insight on segment profitability, operational effectiveness, and supports the CODM in monitoring the impact of strategic initiatives such as pricing adjustments, cost management, capital investments and capacity utilization. This measure is predominantly used in the annual budget and forecasting process, where the CODM considers Segment Adjusted EBITDA trends and variances to guide capital expenditure decisions, allocate personnel, and deploy other operational resources across the segments to drive overall company growth and profitability.

Segment results include any support function costs that are directly attributable to the relevant segment and exclude any central support costs that are not directly attributable and are shown as a reconciling item. Central costs are shown separately from the segments as these costs cannot be allocated to individual segments. Transactions between operating segments are accounted for under the same basis as other independent third-party transactions.
The following tables provide segment revenue and segment performance measure by each reportable segment for the periods presented:

5.Income taxes
The Company’s year-to-date tax provision is comprised of the most recent estimated annual effective tax rate applied to year-to-date, pre-tax ordinary income. The tax impacts of unusual or infrequently occurring items, including changes in judgment about valuation allowances and effects of changes in tax laws or rates, are recorded discretely in the interim period in which they occur. In addition, the tax provision is adjusted for the interim period impact of non-benefited, pre-tax losses.
The Company’s effective tax rate (“ETR”) inclusive of discrete tax items recognized during the period, was
For the nine months ended September 27, 2026, and September 28, 2025, the Company’s effective tax rate was primarily impacted by (i) changes in valuation allowances in the United Kingdom and Ivostud Germany and (ii) non-deductible interest expense and other non-deductible expenses in the United Kingdom. In particular, the effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2026 was significantly impacted by the release of certain United Kingdom valuation allowances as a result of increased forecast taxable income following the IPO, driven primarily by repayment of debt in the quarter and the associated reduction in interest expense. See Note 8 for further information. This represented $
The Company expects to realize the deferred tax assets associated with the UK interest disallowances and tax losses within
The year-over-year change in the effective tax rate was also attributable to changes in the geographic mix of pre-tax earnings, particularly impacted by the recognition of PIK debt forgiveness in the first quarter of 2026 and costs resulting from the IPO, and the subsequent repayment in full of the Shareholder PIK loan and settlement of the Term loan in the following quarters which altered the distribution of earnings and losses across tax jurisdictions.
The Company may settle certain tax examinations for different amounts than the Company has accrued as uncertain tax benefits. Consequently, the Company may need to accrue and ultimately pay additional amounts or pay lower amounts than previously estimated and accrued when positions are settled in the future. For the nine months ended September 27, 2026, and September 28, 2025, the Company’s liability for uncertain tax benefits decreased by $

Basic earnings per share (EPS) is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised, converted or otherwise resulted in the issuance of common shares, to the extent such securities are dilutive.
The following table presents the reconciliation of the weighted-average common shares used in the computation of basic and diluted EPS for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2026 and 2025:

The dilutive effect of stock options was calculated using the treasury stock method. Options that were antidilutive for the periods presented were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS.
In periods in which the Company reported a net loss, potentially dilutive share options were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share because their inclusion would have been antidilutive.

10.Management Incentive Plan – related party transaction
The shareholders of the Company implemented a cash-based Management Incentive Plan (“MIP”) as part of the financial restructuring of the Doncasters Group in March 2020. The plan was designed to provide incentives for senior managers and above (including executive and non-executive directors) to deliver long-term shareholder returns. Under the plan, individuals were entitled to receive a cash sum payable by the Company which was only paid out if certain conditions were met.
Individual payments were equal to a percentage of the amounts repaid on the Shareholder PIK Loan, with varying percentages depending on whether repayment on the loan exceeded certain thresholds. These thresholds increased by
The Company’s IPO on June 26, 2026, triggered the payout of the MIP in full. The actual liability was calculated based on the IPO share price multiplied by the number of shares outstanding prior to the IPO with this amount applied to the varying percentages and thresholds discussed above. The total liability in respect of the MIP realized at the date of the IPO was $

The total liability in respect of the MIP as of December 31, 2025, was $
11.Disposal group held for sale
During 2024, the Group’s management committed to a plan to sell its Ivostud business, as part of a strategic initiative. Consequently, as at December 31, 2024, the assets and liabilities associated with the Ivostud business were reclassified as a disposal group held for sale. At the date of classification as a disposal group held for sale, management reviewed the carrying amount of the investment to the fair value less costs to sell, where fair value less costs to sell was determined primarily based on the expected transaction price contemplated under the letter of intent from a committed buyer, and concluded that an impairment should be taken in the amount of $
While the sale did not close within twelve months of the original date of classification, the Group continued sale negotiations with one committed buyer throughout the period ended June 28, 2026.
During the three months ended September 27, 2026, the Group appointed a third-party adviser to undertake a sell-side process to facilitate and accelerate the transaction. On October 9, 2026, the Group entered into a definitive agreement with a new buyer to sell the Ivostud business for notional consideration, with the buyer assuming all liabilities associated with the business. As part of the transaction, the Group agreed to pay the buyer a cash contribution of approximately €
As a consequence of both the definitive sale agreement and the completed transaction the Group has reviewed the valuation of the disposal group, as of September 27, 2026. At September 27, 2026, the disposal group had assets with a carrying value of approximately $

This disposal group does not represent a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Group’s operations and financial results and therefore does not meet the criteria for presentation of a discontinued operation. The results of operations of the Ivostud business continue to be included in the Group’s consolidated statements of income. Similarly, the cash flows generated by or used in the operations of the Ivostud business are included within the respective categories of the consolidated statements of cash flows.
12.Capital commitments and contingent liabilities
Commitments
As of September 27, 2026, and December 31, 2025, there were $
Contingent liabilities: Legal proceedings and others
In addition to the matters discussed above, various other lawsuits, claims, and proceedings have been or may be instituted or asserted against the Group, including those pertaining to environmental, product liability, safety and health, employment, tax and antitrust matters. While the amounts claimed in these other matters may be substantial, the ultimate liability cannot currently be determined because of the considerable uncertainties that exist. Therefore, it is possible that the Company’s liquidity or results of operations in a period could be materially affected by one or more of those other matters. However, based on facts currently available, management believes that the disposition of these other matters that are pending or asserted will not have a material adverse effect, individually or in aggregate, on the results of operations, financial position or cash flows of the Group.
Environmental provisions
Environmental provisions are contingent liabilities which were recognized as part of the business acquisition accounting. These provisions relate to legacy historical issues that former employees may claim against the Group, and will be carried until the possible liability is settled, cancelled or expires.
13.Share-based payments
The Company accounts for share-based payments in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation. Share-based compensation cost is measured based on the grant-date fair value of awards and recognized over the requisite service period. For awards that vest immediately upon grant, compensation expense is recognized on the grant date. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur.

For the period ended September 27, 2026, the Company’s share-based compensation programs consist of:
| 1. | Matching grant awards granted to certain employees and directors; |

Expected volatility was determined using historical volatility data of comparable publicly traded companies because the Company had insufficient trading history at the grant date due to the timing of its IPO. A volatility assumption of
Expected term
The expected term for the MIP Recognition Grants was determined using the simplified method permitted under ASC 718 because the Company did not have sufficient historical exercise experience. The expected term was calculated as the midpoint between the grant date and contractual expiration date.
Risk-free interest rate
The risk-free interest rate was based on the yield of U.S. Treasury securities with maturities approximating the expected term of the options at the grant date.

On October 23, 2026, the Company disposed of its Ivostud business to Lenbach Equity Opportunities III. GmbH & Co. KG, a private equity fund advised by DUBAG Group. As of September 27, 2026, the assets and liabilities associated with the Ivostud business were classified as a disposal group held for sale. The execution of the definitive sale agreement subsequent to the reporting date has impacted the value of net assets and liabilities recognized in the consolidated financial statements as of September 27, 2026, and the impairment loss recorded in the period (see Note 11 for further information).

For the three months ended September 27, 2026, the Aerospace and IGT end markets represented 35.4% and 46.8% of our revenue, respectively. For the nine months ended September 27, 2026, our revenue was $813.4 million, net loss was $146.8 million, adjusted EBITDA was $146.1 million (with an adjusted EBITDA margin of 18.0%) including the impact of 60bps margin dilution from metal cost inflation pass-through, and capital expenditures were $33.6 million. For the nine months ended September 27, 2026, the combined revenue for Engine Products, Europe and North America, was $669.2 million and adjusted EBITDA was $156.2 million. For the nine months ended September 27, 2026, the Aerospace and IGT end markets represented 38.8% and 42.3% of our revenue, respectively.
For a discussion of the use of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin, and a reconciliation to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures, see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.
In 2026, as compared to 2025, demand continues to grow in the Aerospace and IGT markets. Both end markets are supported by highly attractive, long-term structural growth drivers, and are currently experiencing powerful demand, creating a very strong long-term growth environment for our business. In the Aerospace end market, rising global air travel, fuel efficiency prioritization, lagging aircraft deliveries, and aging fleets are driving multi-year demand for our engine components and other structural castings. In September 2026, GE Aerospace announced that it had agreed to acquire Consolidated Precision Products, Corp., or CPP, one of our three most prominent direct competitors. In the IGT end market, increasing global electricity demand that current grid infrastructure cannot maintain is enhancing the demand for natural gas turbines and our IGT parts. These secular tailwinds are driving significant demand with major OEMs as customer order backlogs currently extend well into the 2030s. However, these conditions are subject to change as a result of decreases in global air travel, aircraft delivery schedule shifts, changes in grid infrastructure investment, OEM production rate adjustments, and broader macroeconomic developments, any of which could cause our recent financial performance not to be necessarily indicative of future operating results or financial condition.
Governmental policies, laws and regulations, and other geopolitical and economic factors, including inflation, customer requirements, tariffs, and fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates, may affect future results of operations and cash flow. The timing, extent, application, and level of tariffs by various governments and our ability to recover tariffs are subject to changes and uncertainties.

Recent Developments
MPP 50% Stake Acquisition
We completed the acquisition of a 50% stake in Montana Precision Products LLC, or MPP, an established joint venture with Unison Industries LLC, or Unison, a GE Aerospace company, as the continuing partner. We acquired the stake for cash and the transaction is expected to be earnings accretive within the first year. GE Aerospace, through Unison, plans to continue to be a key strategic partner and customer of MPP, and we look forward to working together to further develop the business.
Founded in 2012 and based in Butte, Montana, MPP is an AS9100D certified aerospace manufacturing facility producing small structural castings and tube and duct assemblies for aerospace applications including supporting GE Aerospace engine platforms. Working with Unison, Doncasters plans to support MPP with its specialist technical expertise and advanced foundry capabilities, helping drive future growth.
Strategic Partnership Agreements
During the third quarter of 2026, we signed our fifth strategic customer partnership, our largest to date, further strengthening our long-term relationships and earnings visibility with key Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) across both the Aerospace and Industrial Gas Turbine markets.
We entered into a minimum 10 year contract (with extension provisions) with an IGT OEM from September 1, 2026, for a defined portfolio of gas turbine blades and vanes each year. The portfolio includes some of largest and most complex DS/SX IGT blade and vane castings in the world. To support the new contract, we plan to increase capacity at our facility in Bochum, Germany, with the customer contributing approximately 80% of the total capital cost of the project with the remainder being funded by Doncasters. The partnership is expected to deliver over $100 million of incremental revenue at full run rate by 2030/31.
Re-financing
During the three months ended September 27, 2026, the Company re-financed its debt facilities.
On September 3, 2026, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, Doncasters Limited and Doncasters Inc., (together, the “Borrowers”), entered into a senior, unsecured revolving credit facility, with a consortium of lenders, which provides for a maximum borrowing capacity of up to $325 million, plus an uncommitted accordion facility of up to $150 million. The contractual maturity date is September 3, 2029, subject to two one-year extension options, which do not require lender consent.
The ABL Facility was repaid in full and terminated on September 3, 2026.
On June 29, 2026, the Company used a portion of the net proceeds received from the IPO to repay a portion of the outstanding principal and interest balance under the Term Loan. As a result of this repayment, the outstanding borrowings under the Term Loan were reduced by approximately $460 million. The remaining loan balance of approximately $78 million was repaid on September 3, 2026. Following this repayment, the Term Loan was fully settled, and the Company was released from its obligation under the Term Loan.
Ivostud Disposal
On October 23, 2026, the Company disposed of its Ivostud business to Lenbach Equity Opportunities III. GmbH & Co. KG, a private equity fund advised by DUBAG Group.

Revenue
Sources of revenue
We generate revenue from a diverse number of end markets and geographical areas. The principal geographical areas are the United States, UK, Rest of Europe and the Rest of the World. We produce Engine Products for the Aerospace and IGT end markets, which include turbine airfoils and structural castings, as well as turbocharger wheels for the Transportation end market. We are vertically integrated with the production of advanced superalloy materials, which are used as the raw material for our investment castings and also sold externally to other casting manufacturers operating principally in the Aerospace and IGT end markets.
We generated revenue of $308.1 million for the three months ended September 27, 2026, compared to revenue of $221.4 million for the three months ended September 28, 2025, representing an increase of $86.7 million or 39.2%. The following table sets forth the end market breakdown of revenue for the three months ended September 27, 2026, and September 28, 2025:
| | | | |
| | Three months ended | ||
| | September 27, | | September 28, |
(in $ millions) | | 2026 | | 2025 |
Aerospace |
| 109.1 |

| 100.9 |
Transportation |
| 54.7 |
| 45.4 |
Third-party revenue |
| 308.1 |
| 221.4 |
The principal drivers behind the increase in revenue to aerospace and IGT were higher volumes driven by stronger customer demand, strategic pricing initiatives and the impact of metal cost inflation pass-through. For transportation, the increase was driven predominantly through higher volume. Revenue also benefited across the end markets from $14.3 million of metal cost inflation pass-through to customers in the three months ended September 27, 2026.
Cost of sales
Cost of sales primarily consists of direct costs required to manufacture our products and provide our services. These costs include the cost of metal, direct labor, energy and utility costs, other materials and overhead costs directly related to our product and services.
23
Overhead costs include depreciation of property, plant and equipment, sub-contract costs, freight costs and repairs and maintenance. The costs of metal, direct labor and energy account for the largest portion of our cost of sales.
Cost of sales for the three months ended September 27, 2026, increased by $57.8 million, or 34.4%, to $225.8 million compared to $168.0 million for the three months ended September 28, 2025. The increase in cost of sales for the three months ended September 27, 2026, is primarily attributable to increases in volume of parts sold into the Aerospace and IGT end markets, as well as the impact of metal cost inflation.
Gross profit
Gross profit for the three months ended September 27, 2026, increased by $28.9 million, or 54.1%, to $82.3 million compared to $53.4 million for the three months ended September 28, 2025. The increase was due to increases in output and metal cost inflation which drove the revenue growth and improved operational efficiencies which meant that costs increased to a lesser extent than revenue.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
Selling, general and administrative, or SG&A, expense primarily consists of expenses related to the employment costs of the Company’s management and other non-production individuals at the manufacturing facilities, along with the general costs of support functions such as finance, accounting, legal, information technology and human resources. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $49.9 million in the three months ended September 27, 2026, compared to $50.4 million for the three months ended September 28, 2025, representing a decrease of 1.0%. The prior year comparative includes expenses in relation to the long-term management incentive plan of $21.5 million, which was fully settled in July 2026 and is therefore not included in the three months ended September 27, 2026. The three months ended September 27, 2026, include share based compensation expense of $10.4 million which was not included in the three months ended September 28, 2025.
Interest expense, net
Interest expense, net for the three months ended September 27, 2026, was $22.4 million, compared to $55.9 million for the three months ended September 28, 2025. The three months ended September 27, 2026, included a non-cash loss on extinguishment of the Term Loan of $21.5m. Cash interest paid during the quarter was $1.1 million. The overall reduction in the net interest expense reflects the impact of the PIK Retirement on June 26, 2026, and the repayment of the Term Loan following the IPO.
See Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10 - Q for additional detail related to the Company’s borrowings.
Foreign currency gain/(loss), net
We recorded a foreign currency loss, net, of $9.6 million for the three months ended September 27, 2026, as compared to a foreign currency loss, net of $5.0 million for the three months ended September 28, 2025. Foreign currency gains and losses are recognized in respect of our external and intra-Group financing structure. The loss for the three months ended September 27, 2026, related to the movement in the foreign exchange rate between USD and GBP.
Write down of disposal group held for sale
We recorded a write down of $17.8 million of the disposal group held for sale for the three months ended September 27, 2026, as compared to a $0.1 million write down for the three months ended September 28, 2025. This represents the impact of the write down of the net assets of the Ivostud business to fair value less costs to sell.
See Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10 - Q for additional detail related to the write down of the Company’s disposal group held for sale.
24
Income tax benefit
We recorded an income tax benefit of $49.2 million for the three months ended September 27, 2026, compared to an income tax benefit of $15.8 million for the three months ended September 28, 2025. The increase in the three months ended September 27, 2026, compared to the three months ended September 28, 2025 is primarily attributable to the impact of the release of certain United Kingdom valuation allowances as a result of increased forecast taxable income following the IPO.
Net income/(loss)
Net income was $31.8 million, or $0.21 per share, for the three months ended September 27, 2026, compared to a net loss of $42.2 million, or $(0.37) per share, for the three months ended September 28, 2025. The increase of $74.0 million in the third quarter of 2026 was primarily due to the improvement in gross profit and the income tax benefit.
Nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared with nine months ended September 28, 2025
The following table summarizes our results of operations for the nine months ended September 27, 2026, and September 28, 2025. This information should be read together with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Revenue
Sources of Revenue.
We generated revenue of $813.4 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared to revenue of $610.4 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2025, representing an increase of $203.0 million or 33.3%. The following table sets forth the end market breakdown of revenue for the nine months ended September 27, 2026, and September 28, 2025:
| | | | |
| | Nine months ended | ||
| | September 27, | | September 28, |
(in $ millions) | | 2026 | | 2025 |

| 248.9 |
Transportation |
| 154.2 |
| 145.2 |
Third-party revenue |
| 813.4 |
| 610.4 |
The principal drivers behind the increase in revenue to aerospace and IGT were higher volumes driven by stronger customer demand, strategic pricing initiatives and the impact of metal cost inflation pass-through. For transportation, the increase was driven predominantly through higher volume. Revenue also benefited across the end markets from $27.7 million of metal cost inflation pass-through in the nine months ended September 27, 2026.
25
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales primarily consists of direct costs required to manufacture our products and provide our services. These costs include the cost of metal, direct labor, energy and utility costs, other materials and overhead costs directly related to our product and services. Overhead costs include depreciation of property, plant and equipment, sub-contract costs, freight costs and repairs and maintenance. The costs of metal, direct labor and energy account for the largest portion of our cost of sales.
Cost of sales for the nine months ended September 27, 2026, increased by $140.8 million, or 30.3%, to $605.1 million compared to $464.3 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2025. The increase in cost of sales for the nine months ended September 27, 2026, is primarily attributable to increases in volume of parts sold into the Aerospace and IGT end markets, as well as the impact of metal cost inflation.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the nine months ended September 27, 2026, increased by $62.2 million, or 42.6 %, to $208.3 million compared to $146.1 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2025. The $62.2 increase was due to increases in output and pricing which drove the revenue growth, together with metal cost inflation pass-through.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $284.3 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared to $137.1 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2025, representing an increase of $147.2 million. The increase was due primarily to additional one-off expenses relating to the MIP and non-cash share-based payments compensation recognized.
Interest expense, net
Interest expense, net for the nine months ended September 27, 2026, was $108.1 million, compared to $163.1 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2025. This was primarily due to the 85% reduction in the principal balance and subsequent repayment in full of the Shareholder PIK Loan together with the repayment of the Term Loan following the IPO, resulting in lower interest charged.
Foreign currency gain/(loss), net
We recorded a foreign currency loss, net of $3.1 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2026, as compared to a foreign currency gain, net of $15.9 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2025. Foreign currency gains and losses are recognized in respect of our external and intra-Group financing structure. The net movement for the nine months ended September 27, 2026, related to the movement in the foreign exchange rate between USD and GBP and the impact of restructuring of the intra-Group financing structure in the final quarter of 2025.
Write down of disposal group held for sale
We recorded a write down of $17.8 million of the disposal group held for sale for the nine months ended September 27, 2026, as compared to a $3.0 million reversal of the write down for the nine months ended September 28, 2025. The charge for the nine months ended September 27, 2026, represents the impact of the write down of the net assets of the Ivostud business to fair value less costs to sell. The prior year reversal was primarily attributable to an underlying change in the net asset values following an inter-company loan restructuring exercise.
See Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10 - Q for additional detail related to the write down of the Company’s disposal group held for sale.
26
Income tax expense
We recorded an income tax benefit of $58.2 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared to an income tax expense of $9.5 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2025. The benefit in the nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared to the expense in the nine months ended September 28, 2025, is primarily attributable to the impact of changes in valuation allowances in the United Kingdom and Ivostud Germany, non-deductible interest expense and other non-deductible expenses in the United Kingdom. In particular, the effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2026 was significantly impacted by the release of certain United Kingdom valuation allowances as a result of increased forecast taxable income following the IPO, driven primarily by repayment of debt in the quarter and the associated reduction in interest expense. See Note 8 for further information. This represented $47.0 million of the total tax benefit for the quarter of $49.2 million.
The Company expects to realize the deferred tax assets associated with the UK interest disallowances and tax losses within 5 years through the generation of future taxable income and utilization of available tax attributes.
The year-over-year change in the effective tax rate was also attributable to changes in the geographic mix of pre-tax earnings, particularly impacted by the recognition of PIK debt forgiveness in the first quarter of 2026 and costs resulting from the IPO, and the subsequent repayment in full of the PIK debt and settlement of the Term loan in the following quarters which altered the distribution of earnings and losses across tax jurisdictions.
Net loss
Net loss was $146.8 million, or $(1.17) per share, in nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared to a net loss of $144.7 million, or $(1.28) per share, for the nine months ended September 28, 2025. The increase of $2.1 million in the nine months ended September 27, 2026, was impacted significantly by one-off costs in respect of the IPO, including the MIP settlement, and the impairment of the Asset held for Sale, despite the impact of improved trading performance and income tax benefit.

Gross segment revenue for the Engine Products - Europe segment increased $50.6 million, or 47.3%, in the three months ended September 27, 2026 compared to the three months ended September 28, 2025, and increased $114.8 million, or 42.6%, in the nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared to the nine months ended September 28, 2025, in each case, due to output increase linked to the strong end market, including OEM build rates, cost price inflation pass-through and value-based pricing. Adjusted cost of sales in both the three and nine months ended September 27, 2026, increased broadly in proportion to the increase in revenue compared to the three and nine months ended September 28, 2025, reflecting the pass-through of $13.3 million and $25.7 million of higher metal costs for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2026, offset by the operating leverage benefit of higher revenue.
The increase in sales has dropped through to segment adjusted EBITDA at 23.5% in the third quarter of 2026, and 26.7% in the nine months ended September 27, 2026. This resulted in a decrease in segment adjusted EBITDA margin of 20 basis points in the third quarter 2026 compared to the third quarter 2025, predominantly driven by dilution from higher metal cost inflation pass-through. In the
28
nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared to the nine months ended September 28, 2025, the EBITDA margin increased 130 basis points.
Capital expenditure is expected to increase through 2027 and 2028, with additional investments in capacity expansions to accommodate increased customer demand and delivery of three strategic IGT customer partnership agreements across both Germany and the United Kingdom.

Gross segment revenue for the Engine Products - North America segment increased $27.2 million, or 37.1%, in the third quarter of 2026 compared to the third quarter of 2025, and increased $70.4 million, or 32.8%, in the nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared to the nine months ended September 28, 2025, in each case, primarily attributable to increased output following investments in capacity increases. Our facility in Groton, CT, is benefiting from higher production output driven by the installation of new capital equipment. Strong growth in the commercial and defense aerospace and gas turbine markets has driven increased output and pricing. Adjusted cost of sales for Engine Products – North America in both the three and nine months ended September 27, 2026, increased at a lower rate than the increase in revenue compared to the three and nine months ended September 28, 2025, reflecting the operational leverage benefit of the revenue increase.
The increase in sales has dropped through to segment adjusted EBITDA at 48.9% in the third quarter of 2026, and 39.3% in the nine months ended September 27, 2026. This resulted in an increase in segment adjusted EBITDA margin of 950 basis points in the third quarter 2026 compared to the third quarter 2025, and an increase of 540 basis points in the nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared to the nine months ended September 28, 2025.
Segment adjusted EBITDA was $23.6 million, up 129.1% year over year, driven by operating leverage from volume growth and value-based pricing.
Capital expenditure increased versus the prior year, due to capacity expansion investments to support market growth and our two Aero Customer Strategic Partnerships including initial equipment deposits for our greenfield superalloy facility in Alabama.

Our principal historical liquidity requirements have been to service our indebtedness, capital expenditure and working capital needs. Following the Company’s IPO, the Shareholder PIK Loan and the Term Loan were repaid in full. On September 3, 2026, the Company settled and terminated the ABL Facility and entered into the Revolving Credit Facility (see Note 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information). Capital expenditures are expected to be elevated, with additional investments in capacity expansions, especially within our facility in Germany to accommodate increased customer capacity requirements and the signing of new strategic customer partnership agreements. We expect to satisfy our future cash requirements, including our capital expenditure, with cash on hand, cash flows from operations and available borrowings under our external financing facilities.
Operating activities
For the nine months ended September 27, 2026, net cash used in operating activities was $120.7 million, primarily attributable to net loss adjusted to remove non-cash items of $136.2 and a net decrease in operating assets and liabilities of $15.5 million. The net loss adjusted to remove non-cash items included the management incentive plan payment of $217.2 million which was paid out in full
31
following the IPO. The net decrease in operating assets and liabilities was a result of an increase in working capital of $79.1 million, primarily as a result of the increase in output and higher metal prices driving the increase in inventories of $93.7 million. This increase was offset by deferred revenue of $93.1 million reflecting the customer funding received in relation to the strategic customer partnerships.
Investing activities
Net cash out flow used in investing activities was $34.3 million in the nine months ended September 27, 2026, which entirely consisted of capital expenditures as the Group continues to invest in expanding capacity and capability. This compared to $17.5 million in the nine months ended September 28, 2025.
Financing activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $402.3 million in the nine months ended September 27, 2026, which compared to net cash provided in the nine months ended September 28, 2025, of $5.3 million. Net cash provided from financing activities in the nine months ended September 27, 2026, consisted of proceeds from the IPO and the subsequent refinancing, along with the settlement in full, of the PIK Loan, Term Loan, and ABL Facility. Net cash provided by financing activities in the nine months ended September 28, 2025, consisted of the net drawdowns against and repayments of the Revolving Credit Facility.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make certain estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods, and the related disclosures. These estimates and assumptions are monitored and analyzed by us for changes in facts and circumstances, and material changes in these estimates could occur in the future. We base our estimates on our historical experience, trends in the industry, and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from our estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
We believe that the application of our accounting policies, each of which require significant judgments and estimates on the part of management, are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results. Our significant accounting policies are more fully described in the Prospectus. Refer to Note 2, Basis of Presentation, of the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included herein for updates to disclosures of accounting standards recently adopted or required to be adopted in the future.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as net income/(loss) before interest income, interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and further adjusted for certain items that management believes are not indicative of our core operating performance, including site closure, refinancing, and other re-organization costs, legal and professional fees incurred on refinancing of the senior debt facility, receipt of an insurance claim, share-based compensation, management incentive plan expenses which are not expected to continue at the same level in future periods, impairment of non-core assets held for sale or gains from remeasurements from the change in fair value of the disposal group, one-off costs related to the IPO, costs incurred in relation to the development of an upgraded ERP system, and foreign currency gains and losses that relate to our external and intra-Group financing structure. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.

The total outstanding principal balance was $nil and $878 million, as of September 27, 2026, and December 31, 2025, respectively. In December 2025, our shareholders unanimously consented to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Shareholder PIK Loan by 85%, which became effective on March 19, 2026. Following completion of the IPO the Shareholder PIK Loan was repaid in full using a portion of the proceeds of the IPO. |
| (2) | Relates to the non-cash MIP expenses which will not be incurred going forward. |
We present adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin as supplemental performance measures because we believe they facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period and company to company by backing out potential differences caused by variations in capital structures (affecting interest expenses, net and foreign currency gains and losses, net), tax positions (such as the impact on periods or companies of changes in effective tax rates), non-cash charges resulting from depreciation of long-lived assets (affecting relative depreciation and amortization expense) and other items that are not representative of core operating performance or items that we do not expect to continue at the same level in future periods. We believe that adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and board of directors. Nevertheless, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and is not meant as a substitute for net income/(loss) recognized in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
We understand that although adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are frequently used by securities analysts, lenders and others in their evaluation of companies, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin have limitations as an analytical tool and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP.
Free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow
Free Cash Flow and adjusted free cash flow are non-GAAP financial measures. We define free cash flow as net cash (used in)/from operating activities less purchases of property, plant and equipment. We define adjusted free cash flow as net cash (used in)/from operating activities excluding the non-recurring cash payout of the MIP triggered by the IPO, less purchases of property, plant and equipment. Management believes free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow provide useful supplemental information regarding the Company’s ability to generate cash after investments in property, plant and equipment that support ongoing operations and excluding the significant non-recurring impact of the MIP payment.

Adjusted free cash flow | | 111.2 | | 6.0 | | 62.9 | | 17.0 |
We present free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow as supplemental performance measures because we believe that the investments in property, plant and equipment are necessary to maintain and expand the Group’s asset base, which will then generate future cash from operating activities. We also believe that the MIP payment is not reflective of our underlying cash performance. We believe that free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results and cash generation in the same manner as our management and board of directors. Nevertheless, this information should be considered supplemental in nature and is not meant as a substitute for net cash (used in)/from operations or net cash used in investing activities, recognized in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We note that free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow do not include all mandatory cash outflows with other non-discretionary cash flows, such as the repayment of borrowings, not included as part of free cash flow or adjusted free cash flow.
We understand that although free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow are frequently used by securities analysts, lenders and others in their evaluation of companies, free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow have limitations as analytical tools and you should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP.
Adjusted net income/(loss) and adjusted earnings per share
Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as net income/loss adjusted for certain items that management believes are not indicative of our core operating performance, including site closure, refinancing, and other re-organization costs, legal and professional fees incurred on refinancing of the senior debt facility, the loss on debt modification following the refinancing activity, receipt of an insurance claim, share-based compensation, management incentive plan expenses which are not expected to continue at the same level in future periods, impairment of non-core assets held for sale or gains from remeasurements from the change in fair value of the disposal group, one-off costs related to the IPO, costs incurred in relation to the development of an upgraded ERP system, foreign currency gains and losses that relate to our external and intra-Group financing structure, Shareholder PIK Loan interest expense and tax adjustments.

Adjusted EPS | | 0.49 | | 0.22 | | 0.71 | | 0.05 |
We present adjusted net income/(loss) as a supplemental measure because we believe it provides information to management and investors about operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that are not representative of core operating performance or items that we do not expect to continue at the same level in future periods. Nevertheless, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and is not meant as a substitute for net income/(loss) recognized in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We understand that although adjusted net income/(loss) is frequently used by securities analysts, lenders and others in their evaluation of companies, adjusted net income/(loss) has limitations as an analytical tool and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our net income/(loss) as reported under U.S. GAAP. Limitations associated with using adjusted net income/(loss) include that there may be additional adjustments in future periods that may be excluded from the measure. Management believes it is appropriate to also consider net income/(loss) as the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure. Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate adjusted net income/(loss) differently or not at all, which reduces their usefulness as a comparative measure. You should consider adjusted net income/(loss) along with other financial performance measures, including net income/(loss), and our financial results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We understand that although adjusted net income/(loss) are frequently used by securities analysts, lenders and others in their evaluation of companies, adjusted net income/(loss) have limitations as an analytical tool and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP.
Adjusted EPS
Adjusted earnings/(loss) per share is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as earnings/(loss) per share adjusted for certain items that management believes are not indicative of our core operating performance, including site closure, refinancing, and other re-organization costs, legal and professional fees incurred on refinancing of the group debt facilities, the loss on debt modification following the refinancing activity, receipt of an insurance claim, share-based compensation, management incentive plan expenses which are not expected to continue at the same level in future periods, impairment of non-core assets held for sale or gains from remeasurements from the change in fair value of the disposal group, one-off costs related to the IPO, costs incurred in relation to the development of an upgraded ERP system, foreign currency gains and losses that relate to our external and intra-Group financing structure, Shareholder PIK Loan interest expense and tax adjustments, all on a per share basis.

We present adjusted earnings/(loss) per share as a supplemental measure because we believe it provides information to management and investors about operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that are not representative of core operating performance or items that we do not expect to continue at the same level in future periods. Nevertheless, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and is not meant as a substitute for net earnings/(loss) per share recognized in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We understand that although adjusted earnings/(loss) per share is frequently used by securities analysts, lenders and others in their evaluation of companies, adjusted earnings/(loss) per share has limitations as an analytical tool and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our net earnings/(loss) per share as reported under U.S. GAAP. Limitations associated with using adjusted earnings/(loss) per share include that there may be additional adjustments in future periods that may be excluded from the measure. Management believes it is appropriate to also consider net earnings/(loss) per share as the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure. Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate adjusted earnings/(loss) per share differently or not at all, which reduces their usefulness as a comparative measure. You should consider adjusted earnings/(loss) per share along with other financial performance measures, including net earnings/(loss) per share, and our financial results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We understand that although adjusted earnings/(loss) per share are frequently used by securities analysts, lenders and others in their evaluation of companies, adjusted earnings/(loss) per share have limitations as an analytical tool and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP.
Adjusted net cash/(debt)
Adjusted net cash/(debt) is a non-GAAP financial measure we define as the sum of borrowings, current and non-current, or total debt, less the carrying amount of shareholder loan facilities, and less cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash deposit. Adjusted net cash/(debt) to adjusted EBITDA is defined as adjusted net cash/(debt) divided by LTM adjusted EBITDA.

We present adjusted net cash/(debt) to adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure because we believe it provides information to management and investors about our financial position.
As at December 31, 2025, we adjusted net cash/(debt) to exclude the Shareholder PIK Loan as it offered a clearer picture of our third parties debt obligations that are typically subject to significant cash interest amounts. The Shareholder PIK Loan ultimately being repaid using the proceeds from the IPO. Nevertheless, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and is not meant as a substitute for borrowings, current and non-current recognized in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate non-GAAP financial measures, such as adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, net cash/(debt), adjusted net income/(loss), adjusted EPS, and free cash flow differently or not at all, which reduces their usefulness as a comparative measure. You should consider adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net cash/(debt to adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income/(loss) and adjusted EPS along with other financial performance measures, including net income/(loss), net cash from/(used) in operating activities and total borrowings and our financial results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Recently Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Guidance
Other than as discussed in Note 2, “Basis of Presentation,” we did not adopt any other new accounting pronouncements during the three months ended September 27, 2026, that had a significant effect on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements. Many statements included in this report that are not statements of historical fact, including statements about our beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “objective,” “ongoing,” “plan,” “predict,” “project,” “potential,” “should,” “will,” “would,” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about: our market opportunity and the potential growth of the market; our strategy, outcomes, and growth prospects; trends in our industry and end markets; the competitive environment in which we operate; potential new products and product innovation; our expectations regarding future events, growth, expansion or performance, including demand for our products and third-party relationships; historical results that may suggest trends for our business; expectations of retaining and/or attracting new customers; expectations of beliefs regarding future events; and assumptions underlying any of the items mentioned herein. We caution you that the foregoing list may not contain all of the forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Some of the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements include: our failure to manage our growth effectively and our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and create long-term value; our ability to grow revenue and expand our market share across the Aerospace, IGT, and Transportation end markets; our ability to convert our firm order backlog into revenue at anticipated build rates, and the risk that customer program delays, design changes, or
37
cancellations could result in orders not being converted at the times or volumes we currently expect; our ability to deliver incremental annual revenue in excess of projections from our signed strategic customer partnerships when operating at full run rate; our ability to expand and deepen our strategic customer partnerships with leading Aerospace and IGT OEMs, including the ability to secure additional partnerships beyond those already signed; our ability to renew, renegotiate, and maintain our long-term agreements with key customers on commercially acceptable terms as such agreements approach expiration; the impact and implementation of our strategic customer partnerships, including our ability to expand our capacity and bring new manufacturing capabilities online on time and on budget, including through capital investments funded in part by our OEM customers; our ability to achieve and sustain margin expansion through operating leverage, value-based pricing, and operational efficiency initiatives, and to approach the margins of our larger industry peers over time; our ability to source metals and pass-through the costs of metals to our customers; our ability to manage costs associated with running our business, including costs required to manufacture our products and provide our services; our expectation that volume growth will generate operating leverage and that incremental revenue will convert to earnings at margin-accretive rates; our ability to grow aftermarket revenue in both our Aerospace and IGT end markets as the installed base of engines and turbines we serve expands; our ability to obtain, maintain, protect and enforce our intellectual property and similar proprietary rights; our ability to prevent system failures, cyberattacks, and security breaches that may threaten the integrity of our intellectual property, networks, products and other sensitive information, disrupt our business operations, and result in reputational harm and other negative consequences; our expectation that our Turbo Wheels business will continue to serve as a significant source of cash generation to fund investment across our Aerospace and IGT platforms; our ability to generate sufficient cash flow to fund continued organic investment and to pursue disciplined acquisitions that accelerate our strategy; our ability to identify, consummate, and successfully integrate potential acquisitions; our expectations regarding the growth of the Aerospace and IGT end markets and the long-term structural demand growth we believe is driving those markets; our expectations regarding OEM production rates, aircraft delivery volumes, and electricity demand growth and their effect on demand for our products; our ability to attract, develop, and retain key management, engineering, and skilled manufacturing personnel necessary to execute our growth strategy and capacity expansion program; our ability to successfully operate and realize expected benefits of our joint ventures, including our ability to integrate the operations of MPP into our business and the impact of that transaction; our ability to service and manage our indebtedness and maintain adequate liquidity; our expectations regarding the factors that will continue to affect our results of operations, including macroeconomic conditions, foreign currency fluctuations, inflationary pressures, supply chain disruptions, and movements in interest rates; our intention not to pay cash dividends on our ordinary shares for the foreseeable future; our estimated total addressable market across the Aerospace, IGT, and Transportation end markets; our inability to manage indebtedness, access additional financing sources, or maintain liquidity; our ability to manage the transition to being a publicly traded company, including the implementation of public company reporting, compliance and governance requirements, while simultaneously executing our strategic growth and capacity expansion program; and the other factors set forth under “Risk Factors” in the Prospectus.
In addition, in light of these risks and uncertainties, the matters referred to in the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may not occur.
The forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. We do not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
The Company’s market risks are described more fully within the section titled “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in the Prospectus. These market risks have not materially changed for the three months ended September 27, 2026.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (the “Executives”), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, the Executives recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and objectives.
As disclosed in the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1, as amended (File No. 333-296215), the Company has identified material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting. The material weaknesses will not be considered remediated until the applicable new or enhanced controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are designed and operating effectively. The Company’s management, with the participation of the Executives, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. As remediation is not completed, the Executives concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures continue to be ineffective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Management’s Remediation Plans
With the oversight of senior management and the Audit & Risk Committee of the Board of Directors, we have taken steps to enhance our internal control environment and plan to take additional steps to remediate the material weaknesses, enhance our U.S. GAAP-experienced personnel and strengthen other identified control points. Specifically:
| ● | we have and will continue to implement process changes and additional internal reporting and control procedures, including those designed to ensure appropriateness of revenue recognition at our manufacturing sites; |
| ● | we have and will continue to strengthen automated controls within our information technology systems so that we may collect the necessary information to enable us to more effectively monitor and comply with applicable requirements on a timely basis; |
| ● | we have engaged and continue to work with professional organizations with the required skills in the preparation of financial statements under U.S. GAAP to assist in the monitoring of our process changes and additional internal reporting procedures; |
| ● | we have hired and trained our finance teams and will continue to make more personnel changes that will include the hiring of additional experienced senior operational and financial roles and we will continue to evaluate the structure of our operational and finance teams and add resources, personnel and training as needed; |
| ● | we have and will continue to improve communication and coordination processes across our business and operations, including among our finance teams and record-keeping procedures and we have expanded cross-functional involvement and input across our teams; and |
| ● | we are in the process of documenting, assessing and testing our internal control over financial reporting as part of our efforts to comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act. |
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Except for the ongoing remediation efforts described above, there have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the third quarter of 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we may be party to litigation or subject to claims incident to the ordinary course of business. We are not subject to any litigation the outcome of which would be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results or financial condition. For additional information, see “Note 12. Capital commitments and contingent liabilities” to our condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors” in the Prospectus, which could materially affect our business, financial condition, and/or future results. The risks described in the Prospectus are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and/or operating results. There have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in the Prospectus, except as disclosed below.
Our limited experience operating a joint venture may adversely affect our business.
We have recently completed our strategic 50/50 joint venture with Unison, a GE Aerospace company, formed through our acquisition of a 50% stake in Montana Precision Products LLC. We have limited recent experience managing the particular risks inherent in a joint venture structure. We may experience difficulties integrating the operations of MPP into our business and in realizing the expected benefits of this transaction, and the integration process could take longer than anticipated and could result in the disruption of our ongoing business, the loss of employees, or inconsistencies in standards, controls, systems, procedures or policies. With respect to MPP, we share ownership and governance with GE Aerospace, a partner that may not always share our goals, management style, objectives or risk tolerance, and we do not have sole control over all aspects of MPP’s operations. Our limited recent experience working in a joint venture situation may make it more difficult for us to anticipate and manage differences in approaches with our partner over strategy, operations, budgets or capital allocation, and our ability to implement our strategy with respect to MPP, or to respond quickly to changes in its business, may be constrained by the need to reach agreement with GE Aerospace.
