NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Dollars in millions, except per share amounts) Note 1. Background and Basis of Presentation Background Garrett Motion Inc. (the “Company” or “Garrett”) is a cutting-edge technology leader delivering differentiated solutions for emission reduction and energy efficiency. We design, manufacture, and sell highly engineered turbocharging, air and fluid compression, and high-speed electric motor technologies to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and distributors within the mobility and industrial space. We have significant expertise in delivering products at scale for internal combustion engines using gasoline, diesel, natural gas, and hydrogen, as well as for zero emission technologies using hydrogen fuel cell systems, both for mobility and industrial use. As our customers continue to progress on electrification, we are applying our technological pillars to develop highly engineered E-Powertrain and E-Cooling compressor products to support their ambition. These products are key enablers for fuel economy, energy efficiency, thermal management, and compliance with emissions standards and overall greenhouse gas and other emission reduction targets. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable to interim financial statements. While these statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for fair presentation of the results of the interim period, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. The unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements should therefore be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 15, 2024 (our “2023 Form 10-K”). The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 should not necessarily be taken as indicative of the entire year. All amounts presented are in millions, except per share amounts. We report our quarterly financial information using a calendar convention: the first, second, and third quarters are consistently reported as ending on March 31, June 30 and September 30. It has been our practice to establish actual quarterly closing dates using a predetermined fiscal calendar, which requires our businesses to close their books on a Saturday to minimize the potentially disruptive effects of quarterly closing on our business processes. For differences in actual closing dates that are material to year-over-year comparisons of quarterly or year-to-date results, such differences have been adjusted for the three months ended September 30, 2024. Our actual closing date for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was September 28, 2024. There was no difference in actual closing date for the three months ended September 30, 2023. We evaluate segment reporting in accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting . We concluded that Garrett operates in a single operating segment and a single reportable segment based on the operating results available and evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), which is our Chief Executive Officer, to make decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. The CODM makes operational performance assessments and resource allocation decisions on a consolidated basis, inclusive of all of the Company’s products across channels and geographies. The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases these estimates on assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from the original estimates, requiring adjustments to these balances in future periods. Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The accounting policies of the Company are set forth in Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in our 2023 Form 10-K. 8 Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted 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. The amendments in this update require companies with a single reportable segment to provide all existing segment disclosures, as well as requires incremental segment information to be disclosed. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 on a retrospective basis, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the guidance to determine the impact on its disclosures. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures . The amendments in this update increase the transparency around income tax information through improvements to disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the guidance to determine the impact on its disclosures. There are no other recently issued, but not yet adopted, accounting pronouncements that are expected to have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Interim Financial Statements and related disclosures.

Research, Development and Engineering Garrett conducts research, development, and engineering (“RD&E”) activities, which consist primarily of the development of new products and product applications. RD&E costs are charged to expense as incurred unless the Company has a contractual guarantee for reimbursement from the customer. Customer reimbursements are netted against gross RD&E expenditures as they are considered a recovery of cost. Such costs are included in Cost of goods sold as follows: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 2023 2024 2023 (Dollars in millions) Research and development costs $ 49 $ 42 $ 138 $ 128 Engineering-related expenses, net of customer (reimbursements) (1) ( 6 ) ( 3 ) ( 10 ) ( 8 ) $ 43 $ 39 $ 128 $ 120 (1) Engineering-related expenses include customer reimbursements of $ 17 million and $ 10 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $ 41 million and $ 34 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Certain engineering expenses related to long-term supply arrangements are capitalized when defined criteria, such as the existence of a contractual guarantee for reimbursement, are met. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, $ 30 million and $ 12 million , respectively, of such contractually reimbursable costs were capitalized. These amounts are recorded within Other current assets in the Consolidated Interim Balance Sheet. Note 5. Income Taxes Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 2023 2024 2023 (Dollars in millions) Tax expense $ 24 $ 13 $ 62 $ 70 Effective tax rate 31.6 % 18.6 % 25.4 % 25.1 % The effective tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 were 31.6 % and 18.6 % , respectively. The effective tax rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 were 25.4 % and 25.1 % , respectively. The change in the effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the prior period is primarily related to global mix of earnings, partially offset by adjustments to tax reserves due to expiration of statute of limitations. The change in the effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the prior period is primarily related to global mix of earnings and tax expense related to the sale of an equity interest in an unconsolidated joint venture, partially offset by reversal of tax reserves and lower non-deductible transaction costs. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily because of U.S. taxes on international operations and withholding taxes, partially offset by adjustments to tax reserves due to expiration of statute of limitations, lower taxes on non-U.S. earnings, and global research and development benefits. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily because of U.S. taxes on international operations, withholding taxes, and tax expense related to the sale of an equity interest in an unconsolidated joint venture, partially offset by reversal of tax reserves, lower taxes on non-U.S. earnings, and global research and development benefits. 10 Note 6.

The Company also receives guaranteed bank notes without recourse, in settlement of accounts receivables, primarily in the Asia Pacific region.

The components of lease expense are as follows: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 2023 2024 2023 (Dollars in millions) Operating lease cost $ 4 $ 4 $ 11 $ 12 Supplemental cash flow information related to operating leases is as follows: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 2023 2024 2023 (Dollars in millions) Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities: Operating cash outflows from operating leases $ 4 $ 3 $ 10 $ 10 Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for lease obligations: Operating leases 1 — 10 2 Supplemental balance sheet information related to operating leases is as follows: September 30, 2024 December 31, 2023 (Dollars in millions) Other assets $ 48 $ 40 Accrued liabilities 11 9 Other liabilities 39 33 September 30, 2024 December 31, 2023 Weighted-average remaining lease term (in years) 7.18 8.08 Weighted-average discount rate 6.11 % 5.69 % Maturities of operating lease liabilities as of September 30, 2024 were as follows: (Dollars in millions) 2024 $ 5 2025 12 2026 10 2027 8 2028 7 Thereafter 20 Total lease payments 62 Less imputed interest ( 12 ) $ 50 14 Note 14. Long-term Debt and Credit Agreements Long Term Debt Senior Notes On May 21, 2024, Garrett Motion Holdings Inc. and Garrett LX I S.à.r.l. (the "Issuers"), wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company, completed an offering of $ 800 million in aggregate principal amount of 7.75 % Senior Unsecured Notes due 2032 (the "2032 Senior Notes"). The 2032 Senior Notes mature on May 31, 2032. The Company incurred $ 12 million of debt issuance costs, which have been capitalized and will be amortized on a straight-line basis. The 2032 Senior Notes are guaranteed by the Company and each of the Company's wholly owned subsidiaries that guarantee obligations under the existing Credit Agreement (as defined below), subject to certain exceptions. The proceeds from the sale of the 2032 Senior Notes, together with cash on hand, were used to repay approximately $ 800 million of term loan indebtedness, as described below, and to pay related fees and expenses. Term Loans On April 30, 2021, the Company entered into a credit agreement (as amended from time to time, the "Credit Agreement") with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as administrative agent. The Credit Agreement provided for the following long-term senior secured financing (collectively, the "Term Loan Facilities"): • 2021 Dollar Term Facility: a seven-year secured first-lien U.S. Dollar term loan facility for $ 715 million; • 2023 Dollar Term Facility : a five-year secured first-lien U.S. Dollar term loan facility for $ 500 million; and • Euro Term Facility : a seven-year secured first-lien Euro term loan facility for € 450 million. In the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we made early debt repayments totaling $ 985 million on our Euro Term Facility and our 2023 Dollar Term Facility. Both term loans were fully repaid as of September 30, 2024. The early repayments resulted in incremental amortization of debt issuance costs of $ 27 million, included within Interest expense in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Operations. On May 21, 2024, in addition to the above transactions, the Company entered into Amendment No. 4 (the "Fourth Amendment") and Amendment No. 5 (the "Fifth Amendment" and, together with the Fourth Amendment, the "Amendments") to the Credit Agreement (as amended by the Amendments, the "Amended Credit Agreement"). The Fourth Amendment (i) removed the credit spread adjustment with respect to certain US dollar denominated term loan borrowings that are Term Benchmark Loans (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) and (ii) reduced the Applicable Rate (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) on certain US dollar denominated term loans to 2.75 % for Term Benchmark Loans and 1.75 % for ABR Loans (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement). The Fifth Amendment increased the amount of revolving loan commitments available to the Company under the Credit Agreement by $ 30 million ("Incremental Revolving Commitment") to an aggregate amount of $ 600 million, as discussed below. The Incremental Revolving Commitment has the same terms and is subject to the same conditions applicable to revolving loans generally under the Amended Credit Agreement. The principal outstanding and carrying amounts of our long-term debt as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 are as follows: 15 Due Interest Rate September 30, 2024 December 31, 2023 2021 Dollar Term Facility 4/30/2028 SOFR plus 275 bps $ 693 $ 699 2023 Dollar Term Facility 4/30/2028 SOFR plus 450 bps — 500 Euro Term Facility 4/30/2028 EURIBOR plus 350 bps — 497 2032 Senior Notes 5/31/2032 7.75 % 800 — Other 2 — Total principal outstanding 1,495 1,696 Less: unamortized deferred financing costs ( 24 ) ( 46 ) Less: current portion of long-term debt ( 7 ) ( 7 ) Total long-term debt $ 1,464 $ 1,643 Revolving Facility and Letters of Credit The Amended Credit Agreement also provides for a senior secured first-lien revolving credit facility providing for multi-currency re volving loans (the “Revolving Facility”). The Revolving Facility matures on April 30, 2028 and has a maximum borrowing amount available of $ 600 million. Under the Revolving Facility, the Company may use up to $ 125 million for the issuance of letters of credit to its subsidiaries. Letters of credit are available for issuance under the Amended Credit Agreement on terms and conditions customary for financings of this kind, which issuances reduce availability under the Revolving Facility. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had no loans outstanding under the Revolving Facility, no outstanding letters of credit, and available borrowing capacity of $ 600 million. Separate from the Revolving Facility, the Company has a bilateral letter of credit facility in the amount of $ 15 million, which matures on April 30, 2026. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had $ 12 million utilized and $ 3 million of remaining available capacity under such facility. Minimum scheduled principal repayments of long-term debt as of September 30, 2024 are as follow: September 30, 2024 (Dollars in millions) 2024 $ 2 2025 7 2026 7 2027 7 2028 672 Thereafter 800 Total debt payments $ 1,495 Interest Rates and Fees The 2032 Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 7.75 % per annum. Interest on the 2032 Senior Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on May 31 and November 30 of each year, commencing on November 30, 2024. The 2021 Dollar Term Facility is subject to an interest rate, at our option, of either (a) an alternate base rate (“ABR”) (which shall not be less than 1.50 %) or (b) an adjusted SOFR rate (“SOFR”) (which shall not be less than 0.50 %), in each case, plus an applicable margin equal to 2.75 % in the case of SOFR loans and 1.75 % in the case of ABR loans. The Revolving Facility is subject to an interest rate comprised of an applicable benchmark rate as provided under the Credit Agreement (which shall not be less than 1.00 % if such benchmark is the ABR rate and not less than 0.00 % in the case of other applicable benchmark rates) that is selected based on the currency in which borrowings are outstanding thereunder, in each case, plus an applicable margin that may vary based on our leverage ratio. 16 In addition to paying interest on outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Facility, we are also required to pay a quarterly commitment fee based on the average daily unused portion of the Revolving Facility during such quarter, which is determined by our leverage ratio and ranges from 0.25 % to 0.50 % per annum. Certain Covenants 2032 Senior Notes The 2032 Senior Notes contain certain covenants that limit the ability of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries to incur certain additional debt, incur certain liens securing debt, pay certain dividends or make other restricted payments, make certain investments, make certain asset sales, and enter into certain transactions with affiliates. These covenants are subject to a number of exceptions, limitations, and qualifications as set forth in the 2032 Senior Notes indenture. Additionally, the indenture contains certain change of control provisions that, under certain conditions, would require the Company to make an offer to repurchase all of the outstanding 2032 Senior Notes at a price equal to 101 % of the aggregate principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The indenture also contains customary events of default. Term Loans The Amended Credit Agreement contains certain affirmative and negative covenants customary for financings of this type. The Revolving Facility also contains a financial covenant requiring the maintenance of a consolidated total leverage ratio of not greater than 4.7 times as of the end of each fiscal quarter if, on the last day of any such fiscal quarter, the aggregate amount of loans and letters of credit (excluding backstopped or cash collateralized letters of credit and other letters of credit with an aggregate face amount not exceeding $ 30 million) outstanding under the Revolving Facility exceeds 35 % of the aggregate commitments in effect thereunder on such date. As of September 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the 2032 Senior Notes indenture and Amended Credit Agreement. Note 15. Equity Preferred Stock On April 12, 2023, the Company entered into separate definitive agreements with each of Centerbridge Partners, L.P. and funds managed by Oaktree Capital Management, L.P. to effect a series of integrated transactions (collectively, the “Transaction”) designed to simplify the Company’s capital structure by converting all outstanding Series A Preferred Stock into a single class of Common Stock, subject to certain conditions. On June 6, 2023, the Company completed all steps of the Transaction and had no remaining shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding as of that date. Please refer to Note 21, Equity , to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in our 2023 Form 10-K. Treasury Stock Treasury stock represents shares of the Company's Common Stock that have been issued and subsequently repurchased by the Company or withheld to satisfy withholding tax obligations in connection with equity award vestings, and that have not been retired or cancelled. The Company accounts for treasury stock under the cost method and includes treasury stock as a component of Equity (Deficit) on the Consolidated Interim Balance Sheet. The Company accounts for the reissuance of treasury stock using the average cost method. The Company did not reissue or retire any shares of treasury stock during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. Share Repurchase Program On February 12, 2024, the Board of Directors authorized a $ 350 million share repurchase program valid until December 31, 2024. The Company may repurchase shares from time to time under the program through various methods, including in open market transactions, block trades, privately negotiated transactions, and otherwise. The timing, as well as the number and value of shares repurchased under the program, will depend on a variety of factors. The Company is not obligated to purchase any shares under the repurchase program, and the program may be suspended, modified, or discontinued at any time without prior notice. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company repurchased $ 226 million of Common Stock, and had $ 124 million remaining under the share repurchase program. The repurchased shares are held as treasury stock. 17 Note 16. Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measures Our credit, market, and foreign currency risk management policies are described in Note 19, Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measures , to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in our 2023 Form 10-K. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had contracts with aggregate gross notional amounts of $ 790 million and $ 1,171 million, respectively, to hedge foreign currencies, principally the U.S. Dollar, Swiss Franc, British Pound, Euro, Chinese Yuan, Japanese Yen, Mexican Peso, New Romanian Leu, Czech Koruna, Australian Dollar, and Korean Won. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The FASB’s accounting guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). Financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023: Fair Value Notional Amounts Assets Liabilities September 30, 2024 December 31, 2023 September 30, 2024 December 31, 2023 September 30, 2024 December 31, 2023 Designated instruments: Designated forward currency exchange contracts $ 369 $ 456 $ 3 $ 11 (a) $ 10 $ 6 (c) Designated cross-currency swaps 1,515 1,015 24 37 (b) 24 17 (d) Designated interest-rate swaps — 200 — — — — Total designated instruments 1,884 1,671 27 48 34 23 Undesignated instruments: Undesignated interest rate swaps 502 917 13 46 (b) 3 3 (d) Undesignated forward currency exchange contracts 421 715 1 1 (a) 2 6 (c) Total undesignated instruments 923 1,632 14 47 5 9 Total designated and undesignated instruments $ 2,807 $ 3,303 $ 41 $ 95 $ 39 $ 32 (a) Recorded within Other current assets (b) Recorded within Other assets (c) Recorded within Accrued liabilities (d) Recorded within Other liabilities Cash Flow Hedges During 2023, the Company entered into float-to-fixed interest rate swap contracts with an aggregate notional amount of $ 200 million and maturities in July 2024 and October 2024. The Company also entered into a float-to-fixed cross-currency swap contract comprised of an amortizing swap with an aggregate notional amount of € 280 million ($ 300 million) and notional exchanges in June 2026, June 2027, and June 2028. The interest rate swap and cross-currency swap contracts were early settled in 2024, resulting in net gains of $ 18 million recorded to Interest expense and a $ 4 million loss recorded to Non-operating expense in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Operations. The Company also has outstanding forward currency exchange contracts with maturities up to 18 months and an aggregate notional amount of $ 369 million and $ 456 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. These forward currency exchange contracts have been designated as cash flow hedges to mitigate foreign currency exposures primarily on our inventory purchases and manufacturing costs. The gains and losses on the forward currency exchange contracts are recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("AOCI") and reclassified to Cost 18 of goods sold in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Operations when the underlying transactions are recognized in earnings. In order to mitigate foreign currency risk on its 2032 Senior Notes, the Company entered into fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swap contracts with an aggregate notional amount of € 507 million ($ 550 million) and notional exchanges in May 2027, May 2028, May 2029, and May 2030. Changes in the fair value of the cross-currency swap contracts are recognized in AOCI and reclassified to Non-operating (income) expense in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Operations, based upon changes in the spot rate remeasurement of the underlying debt. The net interest settlements on the cross-currency swap contracts are recorded in Interest expense in the Consolidated Interim Statements of Operations. All of the Company's cash flow hedges are assessed as highly effective. For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded a gain of $ 4 million, net of tax, and a loss of $ 2 million, net of tax, respectively, in Other comprehensive income. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded a gain of $ 5 million, net of tax, and a loss of $ 3 million, net of tax, respectively, in Other comprehensive income. Net Investment Hedges The Company has designated cross-currency swaps with aggregate notional amounts of € 858 million ($ 965 million) and € 615 million ($ 715 million) as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, as net investment hedges of its Euro-denominated operations. In April 2024, the Company re-couponed the cross-currency swap contracts and received a cash settlement of $ 13 million. The fair values of the net investment hedges were net assets o f $ 10 million and $ 37 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 , respectively. Our Consolidated Interim Statements of Comprehensive Income include Changes in fair value of net investment hedges, net of tax, of a $ 31 million loss and a $ 20 million gain for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and of a $ 4 million loss and a $ 18 million gain for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 , respectively. No ineffectiveness has been recorded on the net investment hedges. Non-Designated Derivatives As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company has outstanding float-to-fixed interest rate swap contracts with an aggregate notional amount of € 450 million ($ 502 million) and € 830 million ($ 917 million), respectively, and maturities of October 2024, April 2025, April 2026, April 2027, and April 2028. Changes in the fair value of the undesignated interest rate swap contracts are recorded in Interest expense in the Consolidated Interim Statements of Operations. For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded losses of $ 9 million and $ 5 million, net of tax, respectively, in Non-operating (income) expense . For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded losses of $ 33 million and $ 11 million, respectively, in Non-operating (income) expense. The Company also has outstanding forward currency exchange contracts with maturities generally up to 3 months and an aggregate notional amount of $ 421 million and $ 715 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 , respectively . These derivatives are not designated as hedging instruments and are adjusted to fair value through Non-operating (income) expense in the Consolidated Interim Statements of Operations. For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded a loss of $ 5 million, net of tax, and a gain of $ 4 million, respectively, in Interest expense . For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded a gain of $ 4 million, net of tax, and a loss of $ 1 million, respectively, in Interest Expense. Fair Value Measurement The foreign currency exchange, interest rate swap and cross-currency swap contracts are valued using market observable inputs. As such, these derivative instruments are classified within Level 2. The assumptions used in measuring the fair value of the cross-currency swap are considered Level 2 inputs, which are based upon market-observable interest rate curves, cross-currency basis curves, credit default swap curves, and foreign exchange rates. The carrying value of Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash, Account receivables and Notes and Other receivables contained in the Consolidated Interim Balance Sheet approximates fair value. 19 The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were not carried at fair value: September 30, 2024 December 31, 2023 Carrying Value Fair Value Carrying Value Fair Value (Dollars in millions) Term Loan Facilities $ 680 $ 694 $ 1,650 $ 1,692 2032 Senior Notes 789 818 — — The Company determined the fair value of its Term Loan Facilities and related current maturities utilizing transactions in the listed markets for similar liabilities. As such, the fair value of the Term Loan Facilities and related current maturities is considered Level 2. The fair value of the 2032 Senior Notes was determined using quoted prices from daily exchange traded markets and is classified as a Level 1 measurement. Note 17. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income The changes in AOCI by component are set forth below: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 2023 2024 2023 (Dollars in millions) Foreign Exchange Translation Adjustment Balance at beginning of period $ ( 39 ) $ ( 50 ) $ ( 57 ) $ ( 44 ) Other comprehensive (loss) income before reclassifications ( 30 ) 14 ( 7 ) 8 Amounts reclassified from AOCI — — ( 5 ) — Balance at end of period ( 69 ) ( 36 ) ( 69 ) ( 36 ) Pension Adjustments Balance at beginning of period ( 17 ) ( 18 ) ( 20 ) ( 18 ) Other comprehensive income (loss) before reclassifications (1) 1 — 4 — Balance at end of period ( 16 ) ( 18 ) ( 16 ) ( 18 ) Changes in Fair Value of Effective Cash Flow Hedges Balance at beginning of period ( 1 ) 12 ( 2 ) 13 Other comprehensive (loss) income before reclassifications (2) ( 19 ) 3 ( 1 ) 17 Amounts reclassified from AOCI, net 23 ( 5 ) 6 ( 20 ) Balance at end of period 3 10 3 10 Changes in Fair Value of Net Investment Hedges Balance at beginning of period 103 83 76 85 Other comprehensive (loss) income before reclassifications, net (3) ( 31 ) 20 ( 4 ) 18 Balance at end of period 72 103 72 103 Accumulated other comprehensive income, end of period $ ( 10 ) $ 59 $ ( 10 ) $ 59 (1) There were no income tax effects for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. 20 (2) Net of tax expense (benefit) of $( 14 ) million and $ 2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively and $( 8 ) million and $ 4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

See Note 21 for discussion. Note 18. Earnings Per Share For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, as well as the three months ended September 30, 2023, basic earnings per share ("EPS") is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, basic earnings per share was calculated using the two-class method because our Series A Preferred Stock was considered a participating security prior to its conversion into Common Stock and cancellation pursuant to the Transaction. The two-class method requires an allocation of earnings to all securities that participate in dividends with common shares, which included our Series A Preferred Stock, to the extent that each such security may share in the entity’s earnings. Basic earnings per share are then calculated by dividing undistributed earnings allocated to common stock by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, as well as the three months ended September 30, 2023, is calculated based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period plus the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents using the treasury stock method. Diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 is calculated using the more dilutive of the two-class or if-converted methods. The two-class method uses net income available to common shareholders and assumes conversion of all potential shares other than the participating securities. The if-converted method uses net income and assumes conversion of all potential shares including the participating securities. The details of the EPS calculations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 are as follows: 21 Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 2023 2024 2023 (Dollars in millions except per share) Basic earnings per share: Net income $ 52 $ 57 $ 182 $ 209 Less: preferred stock dividend — — — ( 80 ) Less: preferred stock deemed dividends — — — ( 232 ) Net income (loss) available to common shareholders $ 52 $ 57 $ 182 $ ( 103 ) Weighted average common shares outstanding - Basic 217,283,749 250,888,716 226,057,803 141,745,701 EPS – Basic $ 0.24 $ 0.23 $ 0.80 $ ( 0.73 ) Diluted earnings per share: Method used: Two-class Weighted average common shares outstanding - Basic 217,283,749 250,888,716 226,057,803 141,745,701 Dilutive effect of unvested RSUs and other contingently issuable shares 1,119,932 1,493,003 1,591,944 — Weighted average common shares outstanding – Diluted 218,403,681 252,381,719 227,649,747 141,745,701 EPS – Diluted $ 0.24 $ 0.23 $ 0.80 $ ( 0.73 ) For the periods where a net loss attributable to common shareholders is present, dilutive securities have been excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders as including them would have been anti-dilutive. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the weighted-average number of unvested RSUs and other contingently issuable shares excluded from the computations was 1,349,442 shares. Note 19. Commitments and Contingencies Securities Litigation In 2020, various securities class action complaints were filed against Garrett Motion Inc. and certain current and former Garrett officers and directors in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York asserting claims under Section 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, for alleged securities fraud and control person liability. In March 2022, the trial court dismissed with prejudice the claims against certain of the defendants, and in March 2023, the trial court dismissed with prejudice all remaining claims. In April 2023, the plaintiffs appealed the trial court’s decision to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. In April 2024, the Second Circuit affirmed dismissal of the claims, and the deadline for further appeals has passed. Brazilian Tax Matter In September 2020, the Brazilian tax authorities issued an infraction notice against Garrett Motion Industria Automotiva Brasil Ltda, challenging the use of certain tax credits (“Befiex Credits”) between January 2017 and February 2020. The infraction notice results in a loss contingency that may or may not ultimately be incurred by the Company. The estimated total amount of the contingency as of September 30, 2024 was $ 24 million, including penalties and interest. The Company believes, based on management’s assessment and the advice of external legal counsel, that it has meritorious arguments in connection with the infraction notice and any liability for the infraction notice is currently not probable. Accordingly, no accrual is required at this time. Warranties and Guarantees In the normal course of business, we issue product warranties and product performance guarantees. We accrue for the estimated cost of product warranties and performance guarantees based on contract terms and historical experience at the 22 time of sale to the customer. Adjustments to initial obligations for warranties and guarantees are made as changes to the obligations become reasonably estimable. Product warranties and product performance guarantees are included in Accrued liabilities and Other liabilities. The following table summarizes information concerning our recorded obligations for product warranties and product performance guarantees. Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 2023 2024 2023 (Dollars in millions) Warranty and product performance guarantees at beginning of period $ 25 $ 27 $ 27 $ 28 Accruals for warranties/guarantees issued during the period 3 2 8 8 Settlement of warranty/guarantee claims ( 4 ) ( 2 ) ( 10 ) ( 9 ) Foreign currency translation 1 ( 1 ) — ( 1 ) Warranty and product performance guarantees at end of period $ 25 $ 26 $ 25 $ 26 Other Commitments and Contingencies We are subject to other lawsuits, investigations, and disputes arising out of the conduct of our business, including matters relating to commercial transactions, government contracts, product liability, prior acquisitions and divestitures, employee benefit plans, intellectual property, and environmental, health and safety matters. We recognize a liability for any contingency that is probable of occurring and reasonably estimable. We continually assess the likelihood of adverse judgments of outcomes in these matters, as well as potential ranges of possible losses (taking into consideration any insurance recoveries), based on a careful analysis of each matter with the assistance of outside legal counsel and, if applicable, other experts. Note 20. Pension Benefits We sponsor several funded U.S. and non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans. Significant plans outside the U.S. are in Switzerland and Ireland. Other pension plans outside the U.S. are not material to the Company, either individually or in the aggregate. Our general funding policy for qualified defined benefit pension plans is to contribute amounts at least sufficient to satisfy regulatory funding standards. We are not required to make any contributions to our U.S. pension plan in 2024. We expect to make contributions of cash and/or marketable securities of approximately $ 7 million to our non-U.S. pension plans to satisfy regulatory funding standards in 2024, of which $ 5 million has been contributed as of September 30, 2024. Net periodic benefit costs for our significant defined benefit plans include the following components: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, U.S. Plans Non-U.S. Plan U.S. Plans Non-U.S. Plan 2024 2023 2024 2023 2024 2023 2024 2023 (Dollars in millions) Service cost $ — $ — $ 2 $ 1 $ — $ — $ 5 $ 4 Interest cost 2 2 1 1 6 6 3 4 Expected return on plan assets ( 2 ) ( 2 ) ( 2 ) ( 2 ) ( 6 ) ( 6 ) ( 6 ) ( 6 ) Amortization of prior service (credit) — — — — — — ( 1 ) ( 1 ) Total $ — $ — $ 1 $ — $ — $ — $ 1 $ 1 For both our U.S. and non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans, we estimate the service and interest cost components of net periodic benefit (income) cost by utilizing a full yield curve approach in the estimation of these cost components by applying the specific spot rates along the yield curve used in the determination of the pension benefit obligation to their underlying projected cash flows. This approach provides a more precise measurement of service and interest costs by improving the correlation between projected cash flows and their corresponding spot rates. 23 Note 21. Acquisitions and Divestitures On April 3, 2024, the Company divested its equity interest in an unconsolidated joint venture for approximately $ 58 million, subject to customary debt and working capital adjustments. We received cash consideration on the divestiture date of $ 46 million, with an additional $ 7 million to be received in two equal installments due twelve months and thirty-six months from the divestiture date. A pre-tax gain of $ 27 million was recognized related to this divestiture, including $ 5 million of cumulative translation losses reclassified from AOCI to Net income. Transaction fees of $ 1 million were incurred in connection with the divestiture and are included in Selling, general, and administrative expenses in our Consolidated Interim Statement of Operations. 24
