Debt During the nine months ended June 30, 2023, Tyco Electronics Group S.A. (“TEGSA”), our wholly-owned subsidiary, issued $ 500 million aggregate principal amount of 4.50 % senior notes due in February 2026. The notes are TEGSA’s unsecured senior obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all existing and any future senior indebtedness of TEGSA and senior to any subordinated indebtedness that TEGSA may incur. The notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed as to payment on an unsecured basis by TE Connectivity Ltd. During the nine months ended June 30, 2023, TEGSA repaid, at maturity, € 550 million of 1.10 % senior notes due in March 2023. As of June 30, 2023, TEGSA had $ 288 million of commercial paper outstanding at a weighted-average interest rate of 5.3 %. TEGSA had $ 370 million of commercial paper outstanding at a weighted-average interest rate of 3.45 % at September 30, 2022. The fair value of our debt, based on indicative valuations, was approximately $ 4,017 million and $ 3,990 million at June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively. 8. Leases The components of lease cost were as follows: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ For the ​ For the ​ ​ ​ Quarters Ended Nine Months Ended ​ ​ ​ June 30, ​ June 24, ​ June 30, ​ June 24, ​ ​ 2023 2022 2023 2022 ​ (in millions) Operating lease cost ​ $ 36 ​ $ 34 ​ $ 106 ​ $ 98 ​ Variable lease cost ​ ​ 15 ​ ​ 15 ​ ​ 40 ​ ​ 40 ​ Total lease cost ​ $ 51 ​ $ 49 ​ $ 146 ​ $ 138 ​ ​ 11 Table of Contents TE CONNECTIVITY LTD.

Commitments and Contingencies Legal Proceedings In the normal course of business, we are subject to various legal proceedings and claims, including patent infringement claims, product liability matters, employment disputes, disputes on agreements, other commercial disputes, environmental matters, antitrust claims, and tax matters, including non-income tax matters such as value added tax, sales and use tax, real estate tax, and transfer tax. Although it is not feasible to predict the outcome of these proceedings, based upon our experience, current information, and applicable law, we do not expect that the outcome of these proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material effect on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. Trade Compliance Matters We have been investigating our past compliance with relevant U.S. trade controls and have made voluntary disclosures of apparent trade controls violations to the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security (“BIS”) and the U.S. State Department’s Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (“DDTC”). We are cooperating with the BIS and DDTC on these matters and the resulting investigations are ongoing. We have also been contacted by the U.S. Department of Justice concerning aspects of these matters. We are unable to predict the timing and final outcome of the agencies’ investigations. An unfavorable outcome may include fines or penalties imposed in response to our disclosures, but we are not yet able to reasonably estimate the extent of any such fines or penalties. Although we have reserved for potential fines and penalties relating to these matters based on our current understanding of the facts, the investigations into these matters have yet to be completed and the final outcome of such investigations and related fines and penalties may differ from amounts currently reserved. Environmental Matters We are involved in various stages of investigation and cleanup related to environmental remediation matters at a number of sites. The ultimate cost of site cleanup is difficult to predict given the uncertainties regarding the extent of the required cleanup, the interpretation of applicable laws and regulations, and alternative cleanup methods. As of June 30, 2023, we concluded that we would incur investigation and remediation costs at these sites in the reasonably possible range of $ 16 million to $ 44 million, and we accrued $ 20 million as the probable loss, which was the best estimate within this range. We believe that any potential payment of such estimated amounts will not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. 12 Table of Contents TE CONNECTIVITY LTD. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued) Guarantees In disposing of assets or businesses, we often provide representations, warranties, and/or indemnities to cover various risks including unknown damage to assets, environmental risks involved in the sale of real estate, liability for investigation and remediation of environmental contamination at waste disposal sites and manufacturing facilities, and unidentified tax liabilities and legal fees related to periods prior to disposition. We do not expect that these uncertainties will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. At June 30, 2023, we had outstanding letters of credit, letters of guarantee, and surety bonds of $ 174 million, excluding those related to our former Subsea Communications (“SubCom”) business which are discussed below. During fiscal 2019, we sold our SubCom business. In connection with the sale, we contractually agreed to continue to honor performance guarantees and letters of credit related to the SubCom business’ projects that existed as of the date of sale. These performance guarantees and letters of credit had a combined value of approximately $ 58 million as of June 30, 2023 and are expected to expire at various dates through fiscal 2027. We have contractual recourse against the SubCom business if we are required to perform on any SubCom guarantees; however, based on historical experience, we do not anticipate having to perform. 10. Financial Instruments Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk We may utilize cross-currency swap contracts to reduce our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with certain intercompany loans. As of fiscal year end 2022, all such cross-currency swap contracts had been terminated or matured and were settled; additionally, all related collateral positions were settled. The impacts of these cross-currency swap contracts were as follows: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ For the ​ For the ​ ​ ​ Quarter Ended ​ Nine Months Ended ​ ​ ​ June 24, ​ June 24, ​ ​ ​ 2022 2022 ​ ​ ​ (in millions) ​ Losses recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) ​ $ ( 1 ) ​ $ ( 6 ) ​ Gains excluded from the hedging relationship (1) ​ 13 ​ 52 ​ (1) Gains excluded from the hedging relationship are recognized prospectively in selling, general, and administrative expenses and are offset by losses generated as a result of re-measuring certain intercompany loans to the U.S. dollar. Hedge of Net Investment We hedge our net investment in certain foreign operations using intercompany loans and external borrowings denominated in the same currencies. The aggregate notional value of these hedges was $ 2,108 million and $ 1,658 million at June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively. We also use a cross-currency swap program to hedge our net investment in certain foreign operations. The aggregate notional value of the contracts under this program was $ 3,815 million and $ 1,873 million at June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively. Under the terms of these contracts, we receive interest in U.S. dollars at a weighted-average rate of 1.60 % per annum and pay no interest. Upon the maturity of these contracts at various dates through fiscal 2027, we will pay the notional value of the contracts in the designated foreign currency and receive U.S. dollars from our counterparties. We are not required to provide collateral for these contracts. 13 Table of Contents TE CONNECTIVITY LTD.

Interest Rate Risk Management We may utilize forward starting interest rate swap contracts to manage interest rate exposure in periods prior to the anticipated issuance of fixed rate debt. During fiscal 2022, we terminated forward starting interest rate swap contracts as a result of the issuance of our 2.50 % senior notes due in 2032. The impacts of these forward starting interest rate swap contracts were as follows: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ For the ​ For the ​ ​ ​ Quarter Ended ​ Nine Months Ended ​ ​ ​ June 24, ​ June 24, ​ ​ 2022 2022 ​ ​ (in millions) ​ Gains recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) ​ $ — ​ $ 13 ​ ​ Commodity Hedges As part of managing the exposure to certain commodity price fluctuations, we utilize commodity swap contracts. The objective of these contracts is to minimize impacts to cash flows and profitability due to changes in prices of commodities used in production. These contracts had an aggregate notional value of $ 485 million and $ 566 million at 14 Table of Contents TE CONNECTIVITY LTD.

Income Taxes We recorded income tax expense of $ 96 million and $ 116 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2023 and June 24, 2022, respectively. The income tax expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 included a $ 19 million net income tax benefit related to a recent divestiture. The income tax expense for the quarter ended June 24, 2022 included a $ 21 million income tax benefit related to the tax impacts of an intercompany transaction. We recorded income tax expense of $ 283 million and $ 362 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2023 and June 24, 2022, respectively. The income tax expense for the nine months ended June 30, 2023 included a $ 19 million net income tax benefit related to a recent divestiture. The income tax expense for the nine months ended June 24, 2022 included a $ 57 million income tax benefit related to the tax impacts of the intercompany transaction discussed above and $ 27 million of income tax expense related to the write-down of certain deferred tax assets to the lower corporate tax rate enacted in the canton of Schaffhausen. In addition, the income tax expense for the nine months ended June 24, 2022 included $ 12 million of income tax expense related to an income tax audit of an acquired entity. As we are entitled to indemnification of pre-acquisition period tax obligations under the terms of the purchase agreement, we recorded an associated indemnification receivable and other income of $ 11 million during the nine months ended June 24, 2022. During the nine months ended June 30, 2023, we completed tax returns for certain non-U.S. entities which resulted in the recognition of additional deferred tax assets for tax loss carryforwards of $ 313 million. As we do not expect these subsidiaries to generate sufficient future taxable income to realize the deferred tax assets, we recognized a corresponding increase to the valuation allowance. Accordingly, there was no impact to the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the nine months ended June 30, 2023 or Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2023. Although it is difficult to predict the timing or results of our worldwide examinations, we estimate that, as of June 30, 2023, approximately $ 20 million of unrecognized income tax benefits, excluding the impact relating to accrued interest and penalties, could be resolved within the next twelve months. We are not aware of any other matters that would result in significant changes to the amount of unrecognized income tax benefits reflected on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2023. 16 Table of Contents TE CONNECTIVITY LTD.
