Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements Note 1 – Basis of Presentation Background Vishay Precision Group, Inc. (“VPG” or the “Company”) is a global, diversified company focused on precision measurement and sensing technologies that help power the future by bridging the physical world with the digital one. Many of our specialized sensors, weighing solutions, and measurement systems are “designed-in” by our customers, and address growing applications across a diverse array of industries and markets. Our products are marketed under brand names that we believe are characterized as having a very high level of precision and quality, and we employ an operationally diversified structure to manage our businesses. Interim Financial Statements These unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim financial statements and therefore do not include all information and footnotes necessary for the presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. The information furnished reflects all normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair summary of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022, included in VPG’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on March 1, 2023. The results of operations for the fiscal quarter ended April 1, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. VPG reports interim financial information for 13-week periods beginning on a Sunday and ending on a Saturday, except for the first quarter, which always begins on January 1, and the fourth quarter, which always ends on December 31. The four fiscal quarters in 2023 and 2022 end on the following dates: 2023 2022 Quarter 1 April 1, April 2, Quarter 2 July 1, July 2, Quarter 3 September 30, October 1, Quarter 4 December 31, December 31, Reclassifications Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation.

Undiscounted maturities of operating lease payments as of April 1, 2023 are summarized as follows (in thousands) : -11- Note 4 - Leases (continued) 2023 (excluding the three months ended April 1, 2023) $ 3,512 2024 4,098 2025 3,740 2026 3,184 2027 3,040 Thereafter 9,310 Total future minimum lease payments $ 26,884 Less: amount representing interest ( 2,959 ) Present value of future minimum lease payments $ 23,925 Note 5 – Income Taxes VPG calculates the tax provision for interim periods using an estimated annual effective tax rate methodology based on projected full-year pre-tax earnings among the taxing jurisdictions in which we operate with adjustments for discrete items. The effective tax rate for the fiscal quarter ended April 1, 2023 was 24.1 % compared to 20.7 % for the fiscal quarter ended April 2, 2022. The effective tax rate for the fiscal quarter ended April 1, 2023 differs from the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to foreign income taxed at different tax rates and changes in our valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to income taxes imposed by the U.S., various states, and the foreign jurisdictions in which we operate. Each jurisdiction establishes rules that set forth the years which are subject to examination by its tax authorities. While the Company believes the tax positions taken on its tax returns for each jurisdiction are supportable, they may still be challenged by the jurisdiction's tax authorities. In anticipation of such challenges, the Company has established reserves for tax-related uncertainties. These liabilities are based on the Company’s best estimate of the potential tax exposures in each respective jurisdiction. It may take a number of years for a final tax liability in a jurisdiction to be determined, particularly in the event of an audit. If an uncertain matter is determined favorably, there could be a reduction in the Company’s tax expense. An unfavorable determination could increase tax expense and could require a cash payment, including interest and penalties.

At April 1, 2023, the Company had reserved 540,014 shares of common stock for future grants of equity awards (restricted stock, unrestricted stock, restricted stock units ("RSUs"), or stock options) pursuant to the 2022 plan. If any outstanding awards are forfeited by the holder or canceled by the Company, the underlying shares would be available for re-grant to others. If shares are withheld for payment of taxes, those shares do not become available for grant under the 2022 plan. On February 28, 2023 and in accordance with their respective employment agreements, VPG’s three executive officers were granted annual equity awards in the form of RSUs, of which 50 % are performance-based. The awards have an aggregate target grant-date fair value of $ 1.9 million and were comprised of 43,243 RSUs. Fifty percent of these awards will vest on January 1, 2026, subject to the executives’ continued employment. The performance-based portion of the RSUs will also vest on January 1, 2026, subject to the executives' continued employment and the satisfaction of certain performance objectives relating to three-year cumulative “adjusted free cash flow” and "net earnings goals", each weighted equally. On March 9, 2023, certain non-executive VPG employees were granted annual equity awards in the form of RSUs. Certain employees received awards, of which 75 % are performance-based and certain employees received awards of which 50 % are performance-based. The awards have an aggregate grant-date fair value of $ 0.6 million and were comprised of 14,338 RSUs. The non-performance portion of these awards ( twenty-five percent for certain employees and fifty percent for certain employees) will vest on January 1, 2026 subject to the employees' continued employment. The performance-based portion of the RSUs will also vest on January 1, 2026, subject to the employees' continued employment and the satisfaction of certain performance objectives relating to three-year cumulative earnings and cash flow goals, each weighted equally. Vesting of equity awards is subject to acceleration under certain circumstances. -13- Note 9 - Share-Based Compensation (continued) The amount of compensation cost related to share-based payment transactions is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity instruments issued. VPG determines compensation cost for RSUs based on the grant-date fair value of the underlying common stock. The Company recognizes compensation cost for RSUs that are expected to vest and for which performance criteria are expected to be met. The following table summarizes share-based compensation expense recognized (in thousands) : Fiscal quarter ended April 1, 2023 April 2, 2022 Share-based compensation expense $ 681 $ 497 Note 10 – Segment Information VPG reports in three product segments: the Sensors segment, the Weighing Solutions segment, and the Measurement Systems segment. The Sensors reporting segment is comprised of the foil resistor and strain gage operating segments. The Weighing Solutions segment is comprised of specialized modules and systems used to precisely measure weight, force torque, and pressure. The Measurement Systems reporting segment is comprised of highly specialized systems for steel production, materials development, and safety testing. The chief operating decision maker ("CODM") is our chief executive officer. The CODM evaluates each operating segment's performance. The evaluation of the segment's performance is based on multiple performance measures including gross profits, revenues, and operating income, exclusive of certain items. Management believes that evaluating segment performance, excluding items such as restructuring and severance costs, impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, acquisition costs, and other items is meaningful because they relate to occurrences or events that are outside of our core operations, and management believes that the use of these measures provides a consistent basis to evaluate our operating profitability and performance trends across comparable periods. The following table sets forth reporting segment information (in thousands) : -14- Note 10 - Segment Information (continued) Fiscal quarter ended April 1, 2023 April 2, 2022 Net revenues: Sensors $ 36,726 $ 37,750 Weighing Solutions 31,859 32,768 Measurement Systems 20,279 17,147 Total $ 88,864 $ 87,665 Gross profit: Sensors $ 15,144 $ 14,286 Weighing Solutions 11,129 12,079 Measurement Systems 10,926 8,885 Total $ 37,199 $ 35,250 Reconciliation of segment operating income to consolidated results: Sensors $ 9,933 $ 8,958 Weighing Solutions 5,340 6,214 Measurement Systems 3,872 2,211 Unallocated G&A expenses ( 9,105 ) ( 8,807 ) Restructuring costs ( 116 ) ( 261 ) Operating income $ 9,924 $ 8,315 Restructuring costs: Sensors $ — $ ( 203 ) Weighing Solutions ( 34 ) — Measurement Systems ( 32 ) ( 58 ) Corporate/Other ( 50 ) — $ ( 116 ) $ ( 261 ) Products are transferred between segments on a basis intended to reflect, as nearly as practicable, the market value of the products.

For the fiscal quarter ended April 1, 2023, the change in foreign currency exchange gains and losses during the period, as compared to the prior year period, is largely due to exposure of currency fluctuations with the Japanese yen, the Canadian dollar, and the British pound. Included in Other for the three fiscal months ended April 2, 2022 is a $ 0.2 million loss on the liquidation of two of the Company's European subsidiaries. -16- Note 12 – Additional Financial Statement Information ( continued) Other Accrued Expenses Other accrued expenses consist of the following (in thousands) : April 1, 2023 December 31, 2022 Customer advance payments $ 8,618 $ 7,983 Accrued restructuring 14 183 Goods received, not yet invoiced 2,588 2,523 Accrued taxes, other than income taxes 2,309 1,141 Accrued commissions 3,350 3,217 Accrued professional fees 1,036 1,360 Accrued technical warranty 758 740 Current accrued pensions and other post retirement costs 505 505 Other 3,186 2,654 $ 22,364 $ 20,306 Note 13 – Fair Value Measurements ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, establishes a valuation hierarchy of the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels: Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
