OPERATING SEGMENTS

As previously announced, beginning in the first quarter of 2023, we realigned certain businesses and regions within our reportable segments to be consistent with how our segment managers monitor the performance of our segments.

We reorganized the businesses within our Components segment to carve out the electronics business into the newly formed software and electronics business and combined the turbo technologies and fuel systems businesses into the newly formed engine components business.

On May 26, 2023, with the initial public offering (IPO), we changed the name of our Components' filtration business to Atmus.

Our Components segment now consists of the following businesses:

axles and brakes, emission solutions, engine components, Atmus, automated transmissions and software and electronics.

In the first quarter of 2023, as a result of the indefinite suspension of operations in Russia, we reorganized the regional management structure of our Distribution segment and moved all Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) sales into the Europe and Africa and Middle East regions.

The Russian portion of prior period CIS sales moved to the Europe region.

In March 2023, we rebranded our New Power segment as "Accelera" to better represent our commitment to zero-emission technologies.

In addition, we moved our NPROXX joint venture from the Accelera segment to the Engine segment, which adjusted both the equity, royalty and interest income (loss) from investees and segment EBITDA (defined as earnings or losses before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and noncontrolling interests) line items for the prior years.

We started to report results for the changes within our operating segments effective January 1, 2023, and reflected these changes in the historical periods presented.

See NOTE 23, "FORMATION OF ATMUS AND IPO," to our Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information about the Atmus IPO.

We have five complementary operating segments:

Components, Engine, Distribution, Power Systems and Accelera.

Engine, Components, Distribution, Power Systems and Accelera.

That prosperity includes strong communities, robust business and environmental sustainability.

The highest level of accountability for our climate-related risks and opportunities is with the Safety, Environment and Technology (SET) Committee of the Board of Directors (the Board).

The internal Action Committee for Environmental Sustainability meets monthly and reports to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and to the SET Committee at least annually.

In 2019, we introduced PLANET 2050, a sustainability strategy focused on three priority areas:

Our Board of Directors (the Board) and the senior management team oversee our top risks, while the Enterprise Risk Management program gives the Board and senior management a framework to help them understand, identify, assess, manage and monitor risks so we can meet our strategic objectives.

The Board is ultimately responsible for assessing and managing climate-related risks and opportunities.

Managing risk effectively is on the agenda at every regular board meeting, and the Board reviews the entire Enterprise Risk Management program and the results of our latest enterprise risk assessment each year.

As climate-related risks affect all aspects of the business, the enterprise risks incorporate, where relevant, climate-related aspects, with a separate stand-alone enterprise risk on climate change.

The Safety, Environment and Technology (SET) committee provides overall guidance and insight on major environmental sustainability initiatives such as our environmental sustainability strategy, as well as environmental management at our facilities and operations.

In 2019, we introduced our current environmental sustainability strategy focused on three priority areas:

addressing climate change and air emissions, using natural resources in the most sustainable way and improving communities.

Additional commitments followed including Cummins Water Works, our program for strengthening communities through sustainable water and addressing the global water crisis, and Destination Zero, our long-term product decarbonization strategy.

The PLANET 2050 strategy includes nine specific goals to achieve by 2030, including science-based greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction targets for newly sold products and facilities, as well as aspirational targets for 2050.

Department of Justice (DOJ) and the California Attorney General’s Office (CA AG) to resolve certain regulatory civil claims regarding our emissions certification and compliance process for certain engines primarily used in pick-up truck applications in the U.S.

(collectively, the Agreement in Principle).

As part of the Agreement in Principle, among other things, we agreed to pay civil penalties, complete recall requirements, undertake mitigation projects, provide extended warranties, undertake certain testing, take certain corporate compliance measures and make certain payments.

Failure to comply with the terms and conditions of the Agreement in Principle will subject us to further stipulated penalties.

As part of the Settlement Agreements, among other things, we agreed to pay civil penalties, complete recall requirements, undertake mitigation projects, provide extended warranties, undertake certain testing, take certain corporate compliance measures and make other payments.

"Character, ability and intelligence are not concentrated in one sex over the other, nor in persons with certain accents or in certain races or in persons holding degrees from universities over others.

When we indulge ourselves in such irrational prejudices, we damage ourselves most of all and ultimately assure ourselves of failure in competition with those more open and less biased."

Our long-standing commitment to diversity and inclusion is consistent with our commitment to follow the law everywhere, including, without limitation, complying with U.S.

and global laws and regulations related to civil rights and anti-discrimination.

We believe that we are in compliance with such laws and regulations in all material respects.
