CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS FOR FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Form 10-Q”) (including Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations) may constitute forward-looking statements as contemplated by the 1995 Private Securities Litigation Reform Act (the “Act”) that are based on management's current outlook, expectations, estimates and projections. Words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “continues,” “could,” “designed,” “effect,” “estimates,” “evaluates,” “expects,” “forecasts,” “goal,” “guidance,” “initiative,” “intends,” “may,” “outlook,” “plans,” “potential,” “predicts,” “project,” “pursue,” “seek,” “should,” “target,” “when,” “will,” “would,” and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Further, all statements, other than statements of historical fact contained or incorporated by reference in this Form 10-Q, that we expect or anticipate will or may occur in the future regarding our financial position, business strategy and measures to implement that strategy, including changes to operations, competitive strengths, goals, expansion and growth of our business and operations, plans, references to future success and other such matters, are forward-looking statements. Accounting estimates, such as those described under the heading “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (“Form 10-K”), are inherently forward-looking. All forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and analyses made by us in light of our experience and our perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors we believe are appropriate under the circumstances. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance, and the Company’s actual results may differ materially from those expressed, projected, or implied in or by the forward-looking statements.

You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Form 10-Q. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and generally beyond our control, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed, projected or implied in or by the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties, among others, include supply disruptions impacting us or our customers, such as the current shortage of semiconductor chips that has impacted original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) customers and their suppliers, including us; commodities availability and pricing, and an inability to achieve expected levels of success in additional commercial negotiations with customers concerning recovery of these costs; competitive challenges from existing and new competitors including OEM customers; the challenges associated with rapidly changing technologies, particularly as relates to electric vehicles, and our ability to innovate in response; uncertainties regarding the extent and duration of impacts of matters associated with the COVID-19/coronavirus pandemic (“COVID-19”), including additional production disruptions; the difficulty in forecasting demand for electric vehicles and our electric vehicles revenue growth; potential disruptions in the global economy caused by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine; the ability to identify targets and consummate acquisitions on acceptable terms; failure to realize the expected benefits of acquisitions on a timely basis; the ability to identify appropriate combustion portfolio businesses for disposition and consummate planned dispositions on acceptable terms; the failure to promptly and effectively integrate acquired businesses; the potential for unknown or inestimable liabilities relating to the acquired businesses; our dependence on automotive and truck production, both of which are highly cyclical and subject to disruptions; our reliance on major OEM customers; fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates; our dependence on information systems; the uncertainty of the global economic environment; the outcome of existing or any future legal proceedings, including litigation with respect to various claims; future changes in laws and regulations, including, by way of example, taxes and tariffs, in the countries in which we operate; impacts from any potential future acquisition or disposition transactions; and the other risks, noted in reports that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our most recently-filed Form 10-K. We do not undertake any obligation to update or announce publicly any updates to or revisions to any of the forward-looking statements in this Form 10-Q to reflect any change in our expectations or any change in events, conditions, circumstances, or assumptions underlying the statements.

This section and the discussions contained in Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” and in Item 7, subheading “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in our most recently-filed Form 10-K are intended to provide

Table of Contents

meaningful cautionary statements for purposes of the safe harbor provisions of the Act. This should not be construed as a complete list of all of the economic, competitive, governmental, technological and other factors that could adversely affect our expected consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity. Additional risks and uncertainties, including without limitation those not currently known to us or that we currently believe are immaterial, also may impair our business, operations, liquidity, financial condition and prospects.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to results presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), this report includes non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide additional information that is useful to investors in understanding the underlying performance and trends of the Company. Readers should be aware that non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations and should be cautious with respect to the use of such measures. To compensate for these limitations, we use non-GAAP measures as comparative tools, together with GAAP measures, to assist in the evaluation of our operating performance or financial condition. We ensure that these measures are calculated using the appropriate GAAP components in their entirety and that they are computed in a manner intended to facilitate consistent period-to-period comparisons. Our method of calculating these non-GAAP measures may differ from methods used by other companies. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for those financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Where non-GAAP financial measures are used, the most directly comparable GAAP or regulatory financial measure, as well as the reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, can be found in this report.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of BorgWarner Inc. and Consolidated Subsidiaries (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flow activity required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of results have been included. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date. For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and Footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and accompanying notes, as well as the amounts of revenues and expenses reported during the periods covered by those financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

COVID-19 Pandemic and Other Supply Disruptions

The impact of COVID-19, including changes in consumer behavior, pandemic fears and market downturns, and restrictions on business and individual activities, has created significant volatility in the global economy. Recent COVID-19 outbreaks in certain regions continue to cause intermittent COVID-19-related disruptions in the Company’s supply chain and local manufacturing operations. For a significant portion of the second quarter of 2022, China imposed lock-downs in many cities due to an increase in COVID-19 cases in the region. The Company also continues to face supplier disruptions due to a global semiconductor shortage in the automotive industry.

The Company continues to expect global industry production to modestly increase year over year in 2022. However, various global disruptions, including, but not limited to, input cost inflation, supply chain disruptions and further impacts from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine could impact the Company’s 2022 expectation.

NOTE 2 NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-10, “Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance.” It is expected to increase transparency in financial reporting by requiring business entities to disclose information about certain types of government assistance they receive. The amendments require the following annual disclosures about transactions with a government: (i) information about the nature of the transactions and the related accounting policy used to account for the transactions; (ii) the line items on the balance sheet and income statement that are affected by the transactions, and the amounts applicable to each financial statement line item; and (iii) significant terms and conditions of the transactions, including commitments and contingencies. This guidance was effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021. The Company adopted this guidance prospectively as of January 1, 2022, and there was no impact on these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements; however, the Company will include the annual disclosures as required in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers.” It requires entities to apply ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities in a business combination. The amendments improve comparability after the business combination by providing consistent recognition and measurement guidance for revenue contracts with customers acquired in a business combination and revenue contracts with customers not acquired in a business combination. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 3 ACQUISITIONS

In accordance with ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations,” acquisitions are recorded using the acquisition method of accounting. The Company recognizes and measures the acquisition date fair value of the identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest using a range of methodologies as indicated by generally accepted valuation practices. Various valuation techniques are used to determine the fair value of intangible assets, with the primary techniques being forms of the income approach, specifically the relief-from-royalty and multi-period excess earnings valuation methods. Under these valuation approaches, the Company is required to make estimates and assumptions from a market participant perspective and may include revenue growth rates, estimated earnings, royalty rates, obsolescence factors, contributory asset charges, customer attrition and discount rates.

Hubei Surpass Sun Electric Charging Business

On September 20, 2022, the Company announced that it had entered into an Equity Transfer Agreement under which BorgWarner will acquire the electric vehicle solution, smart grid and smart energy businesses of Hubei Surpass Sun Electric. The transaction has an enterprise value up to ¥410 million ($60 million), of which approximately ¥267 million ($39 million) will be delivered at or soon after closing and up to ¥143 million ($21 million) could be paid in the form of contingent payments over approximately two years following the closing. The acquisition complements the Company’s existing European and North American charging footprint by adding a presence in China. The transaction is subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions and is expected to close in the first quarter of 2023.

Rhombus Energy Solutions

On July 29, 2022, the Company completed its acquisition of 100% of Rhombus Energy Solutions (“Rhombus”), a provider of charging solutions in the North American market, pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Agreement”). The acquisition complements the Company’s existing

Table of Contents

European charging footprint to accelerate organic growth and adds North American regional presence to its charging business.

The total consideration was $131 million, all of which was paid at the time of closing. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company is obligated to remit up to $30 million of earn-out payments, payable in 2025, contingent upon achievement of certain sales dollars, sales volume, and gross margin targets. The Company’s current estimates indicate that the minimum thresholds for these earn-out targets will not be achieved, thus no amount for the earn-out payments has been included in the purchase consideration or in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Additionally, pursuant to the Agreement, the Company is obligated to remit up to $25 million over the next three years in key employee retention related payments, which include certain performance targets. The amounts will be accounted for as post-combination expense.

The purchase price was allocated on a provisional basis as of July 29, 2022. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at estimated fair values based on management’s estimates, available information, and supportable assumptions that management considered reasonable. Certain estimated values for the acquisition, including goodwill, tangible and intangible assets and deferred taxes, are not yet finalized, and the provisional purchase price allocations are subject to change as the Company completes its analysis of the fair value at the date of acquisition. The final valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed may be materially different from the estimated values shown below.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of July 29, 2022, the acquisition date:

(in millions) Initial Allocation
ASSETS
Current assets $ 7
Goodwill 104
Other intangible assets, net 27
Other non-current assets 4
Total assets acquired 142
LIABILITIES
Current liabilities 3
Other non-current liabilities 8
Total liabilities assumed 11
Net assets acquired $ 131

Any excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of net assets was recognized as goodwill. Goodwill of $104 million was recorded within the Company’s Air Management segment. The goodwill consists of the Company’s expected future economic benefits that will be realized from expanding the Company’s electric vehicle portfolio as electric vehicle production continues to increase. The goodwill is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

In connection with the acquisition, the Company preliminarily recorded $27 million for intangible assets, primarily for developed technology. As described above, the provisional fair value of intangible assets was valued using the income approach. Management used a third-party valuation firm to assist in the determination of the provisional purchase accounting fair values; however, management ultimately oversees the third-party valuation firm to ensure that the transaction-specific assumptions are appropriate for the Company.

The impact of the Rhombus acquisition on net sales and net earnings was immaterial for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. Due to its insignificant size relative to the Company, supplemental pro forma financial information of the combined entity for the current and prior reporting periods is not provided.

Santroll Automotive Components

On March 31, 2022, the Company completed its acquisition of 100% of Santroll Automotive Components (“Santroll”), a carve-out of Santroll Electric Auto’s eMotor business, pursuant to the terms of an Equity Transfer Agreement (“ETA”). The acquisition is expected to strengthen the Company’s vertical integration, scale and portfolio breadth in light vehicle eMotors while allowing for increased speed to market.

The total final consideration was $207 million, which includes final working capital and net debt adjustments of $5 million. The consideration includes approximately ¥1.1 billion ($167 million) of base purchase price and ¥0.25 billion ($40 million) of originally estimated earn-out payments. The Company paid approximately ¥1.0 billion ($157 million) of base purchase price in the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The remaining $10 million of base purchase price is recorded in Other current liabilities in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2022. Pursuant to the ETA, the obligation of the Company to remit up to ¥0.3 billion (approximately $47 million) of earn-out payments is contingent upon achievement of certain sales volume targets and certain estimated future volume targets associated with newly awarded business. As of September 30, 2022, the Company’s estimate of the earn-out payments was approximately $31 million, which is recorded in Other current liabilities in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

The purchase price was allocated on a preliminary basis as of March 31, 2022. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at estimated fair values based on management’s estimates, available information, and supportable assumptions that management considered reasonable. Certain estimated values for the acquisition, including goodwill and deferred taxes, are not yet finalized, and the preliminary purchase price allocations are subject to change as the Company completes its analysis of the fair value at the date of acquisition. The final valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed may be materially different from the estimated values shown below.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of March 31, 2022, the acquisition date:

(in millions) Initial Allocation Measurement Period Adjustments Revised Allocation
ASSETS
Current assets $ 8 $ (3) $ 5
Property, plant and equipment, net 9 4 13

LIABILITIES
Current liabilities 2 2 4
Other non-current liabilities 22 22
Total liabilities assumed 24 2 26
Net assets acquired $ 212 $ (5) $ 207

Any excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of net assets was recognized as goodwill. Goodwill of $127 million was recorded within the Company’s e-Propulsion & Drivetrain segment. The goodwill consists of the Company’s expected future economic benefits that will arise from future product sales and the added capabilities from vertical integration of eMotors. The goodwill is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes in China.

The following table summarizes the other intangible assets acquired:

(in millions) Estimated Life Estimated Fair Value
Customer relationships 12 years $ 62
Manufacturing processes (know-how) 10 years 25
Total other intangible assets $ 87

Goodwill and identifiable intangible assets were valued using the income approach. Management used a third-party valuation firm to assist in the determination of the preliminary purchase accounting fair values; however, management ultimately oversees the third-party valuation firm to ensure that the transaction-specific assumptions are appropriate for the Company.

The impact of the Santroll acquisition on net sales and net earnings was immaterial for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. Due to its insignificant size relative to the Company, supplemental pro forma financial information of the combined entity for the current and prior reporting periods is not provided.

AKASOL AG

On June 4, 2021, the Company completed its voluntary public takeover offer for shares of AKASOL AG (“AKASOL”), resulting in ownership of 89% of AKASOL’s outstanding shares. The Company paid approximately €648 million ($788 million) to settle the offer from current cash balances, which included proceeds received from its public offering of 1.00% Senior Notes due 2031 completed on May 19, 2021. Following the settlement of the offer, AKASOL became a consolidated majority-owned subsidiary of the Company. Upon that settlement, the Company also consolidated approximately €64 million ($77 million) of gross debt of AKASOL. Subsequent to the completion of the voluntary public takeover offer, the Company purchased additional shares of AKASOL for €28 million ($33 million) increasing its ownership to 93% as of December 31, 2021.

On August 2, 2021, the Company initiated a merger squeeze-out process under German law for the purpose of acquiring 100% of AKASOL. On December 17, 2021, the shareholders of AKASOL voted to mandatorily transfer to ABBA BidCo. AG, a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of the Company, each issued and outstanding share of AKASOL held by shareholders who did not tender their shares in the Company’s previously completed exchange offer for AKASOL shares (the “Squeeze Out”). In exchange for the AKASOL shares transferred in the Squeeze Out, the Company paid appropriate cash compensation, in the amount of €119.16 per share, which was determined after an assessment by a third-party valuation firm, the adequacy of which was examined by an independent, court-appointed auditor. At December 31, 2021, the noncontrolling interest in AKASOL of approximately €51 million ($58 million) to be acquired through the Squeeze Out was reclassified to Other current liabilities in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as it was deemed mandatorily redeemable. No shareholder objections were filed during the statutory contestation period, and on February 10, 2022, the Company completed the registration of the Squeeze Out resulting in 100% ownership. The Company settled the Squeeze Out with AKASOL minority shareholders in the first quarter of 2022.

The acquisition further strengthens BorgWarner’s commercial vehicle and industrial electrification capabilities, which positions the Company to capitalize on what it believes to be a fast-growing battery module and pack market. The Company finalized its valuation of the assets and liabilities of the AKASOL acquisition during the second quarter of 2022.

Any excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of net assets was recognized as goodwill. Goodwill of $704 million, including the impact of measurement period adjustments, was recorded within the Company’s Air Management segment. The goodwill consists of the Company’s expected future economic benefits that will arise from acquiring this business, which is established in making next-generation products for electric vehicles and the potential development and deployment of future technologies, across a global customer base, in this market and across adjacent industries. The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.

The following table summarizes the other intangible assets acquired:

Amortized intangible assets:
Developed technology 5 years $ 70
Customer relationships 11 years 25
Total amortized intangible assets 95
Unamortized trade name Indefinite 35
Total other intangible assets $ 130

The property, plant and equipment acquired were valued using a combination of cost and market approaches. Goodwill and identifiable intangible assets were valued using the income approach. Noncontrolling interests were valued using a market approach. Management used a third-party valuation firm to assist in the determination of the preliminary purchase accounting fair values; however, management ultimately oversees the third-party valuation firm to ensure that the transaction-specific assumptions are appropriate for the Company.

Due to its insignificant size relative to the Company, supplemental pro forma financial information of the combined entity for the current and prior reporting periods is not provided.

Romeo Power, Inc.

In May 2019, the Company invested $50 million in exchange for a 20% equity interest in Romeo Systems, Inc., now known as Romeo Power, Inc., (“Romeo”) a technology-leading battery module and pack supplier that was then privately held. On December 29, 2020, through the business combination of Romeo Systems, Inc. and special purpose acquisition company RMG Acquisition Corporation, a new entity, Romeo Power, Inc., became a publicly listed company. The Company’s ownership in Romeo was reduced to 14%, and the investment was recorded at fair value on an ongoing basis with changes in fair value being recognized in Unrealized (gain) loss on equity securities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recorded a loss of $61 million and $337 million, respectively, to adjust the carrying value of the Company’s investment to fair value. As of December 31, 2021, the investment’s fair value was $70 million, which was reflected in Investments and long-term receivables in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded a loss of $39 million and liquidated its investment in Romeo shares at a fair value of $31 million. As of March 17, 2022, the Company no longer held any investment in Romeo.

In September 2019, the Company and Romeo contributed total equity of $10 million and formed a new joint venture, BorgWarner Romeo Power LLC (“Romeo JV”), in which the Company owned a 60% interest. Romeo JV was a variable interest entity focusing on producing battery module and pack technology. The Company was the primary beneficiary of Romeo JV and had consolidated Romeo JV in its consolidated financial statements. On October 25, 2021, the Company delivered written notice to Romeo that the Company was electing to exercise its right to put its ownership stake in Romeo JV to Romeo. Based on an independent appraisal, the Company’s interest in Romeo JV was valued at $30 million. In February 2022, the Company completed the sale of its 60% interest in Romeo JV for $29 million, the fair value of $30 million reduced by a 5% discount pursuant to the joint venture agreement. The Company recorded a gain of $24 million in Other operating expense, net, which represented the difference between the Company’s book value of its interest in Romeo JV compared to the fair value of consideration received. As a result of the sale, the Company has no further rights in or involvement with Romeo JV.

NOTE 4 REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

The Company manufactures and sells products, primarily to OEMs of light vehicles and, to a lesser extent, to other OEMs of commercial vehicles and off-highway vehicles, to certain Tier One vehicle systems suppliers and into the aftermarket. The Company’s payment terms are based on customary business practices and vary by customer type and products offered. We have evaluated the terms of our arrangements and determined that they do not contain significant financing components.

Generally, revenue is recognized upon shipment or delivery; however, a limited number of the Company’s customer arrangements for its highly customized products with no alternative use provide the Company with the right to payment during the production process. As a result, for these limited arrangements, revenue is recognized as goods are produced and control transfers to the customer using the input cost-to-cost method. The Company recorded a contract asset of $18 million and $17 million at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, for these arrangements. These amounts are reflected in Prepayments and other current assets in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In limited instances, certain customers have provided payments in advance of receiving related products, typically at the onset of an arrangement prior to the beginning of production. These contract liabilities are reflected as Other current liabilities and Other non-current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and were $18 million and less than $1 million at September 30, 2022 and $21 million and $1 million at December 31, 2021, respectively. These amounts are reflected as revenue over the term of

Table of Contents

the arrangement (typically 3 to 7 years) as the underlying products are shipped and represent the Company’s remaining performance obligations as of the end of the period.

The Company continually seeks business development opportunities and at times provides customer incentives for new program awards. When the Company determines that the payments are incremental and incurred only if the new business is obtained and expects to recover these amounts from the customer over the term of the new business arrangement, the Company capitalizes these amounts. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company recorded customer incentive payments of $32 million and $36 million, respectively, in Prepayments and other current assets, and $102 million and $137 million, respectively, in Other non-current assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

NOTE 5 RESTRUCTURING

The Company’s restructuring activities are undertaken, as necessary, to execute management’s strategy and streamline operations, consolidate and take advantage of available capacity and resources, and ultimately achieve net cost reductions. Restructuring activities include efforts to integrate and rationalize the Company’s business and to relocate operations to best cost locations.

The Company’s restructuring expenses consist primarily of employee termination benefits (principally severance and/or termination benefits) and other costs, which are primarily professional fees and costs related to facility closures and exits.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded $18 million of restructuring costs for individually approved restructuring actions that primarily related to specific reductions in headcount.

2020 Structural Costs Plan In February 2020, the Company announced a $300 million restructuring plan to address existing structural costs. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded $5 million and $28 million of restructuring charges related to this plan, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recorded $20 million and $81 million of restructuring charges related to this plan, respectively. Cumulatively, the Company has incurred $279 million of restructuring charges related to this plan. As of September 30, 2022 the plan is substantially complete, with any remaining restructuring costs expected to be incurred by the end of 2022.

2019 Legacy Delphi Technologies Plan In 2019, legacy Delphi Technologies announced a restructuring plan to reshape and realign its global technical center footprint and reduce salaried and contract staff. The Company continued actions under this plan post-acquisition and has recorded cumulative charges of $66 million since October 1, 2020, including approximately $4 million and $62 million in restructuring charges during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively. The actions under this plan are substantially complete.

The following provides details of restructuring expense incurred by the Company’s reporting segments during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, related to the plans and actions discussed above:

Table of Contents

Air Management

2020 Structural Costs Plan

•During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the segment recorded $5 million and $18 million, respectively, of restructuring costs under this plan. This primarily related to $11 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 for a voluntary termination program pursuant to which approximately 47 employees accepted termination packages in 2022.

•During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the segment recorded restructuring costs of $10 million and $36 million, respectively, primarily related to severance costs, professional fees and a voluntary termination program to reduce existing structural costs.

2019 Legacy Delphi Technologies Plan

•During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the segment recorded $4 million of restructuring costs, primarily related to severance costs.

e-Propulsion & Drivetrain

•During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the segment recorded $14 million of restructuring costs, primarily related to severance costs associated with the announced closure of a technical center in Europe affecting approximately 80 employees.

2020 Structural Costs Plan

•During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the segment recorded $10 million of restructuring costs primarily related to contractual settlements and professional fees.

•During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the segment recorded $11 million and $44 million, respectively, associated with this plan. These amounts included $7 million and $17 million, respectively, of restructuring costs, primarily related to severance costs, equipment relocation and professional fees to reduce existing structural costs and $4 million and $27 million, respectively, of restructuring costs, primarily related to contractual settlements and professional fees and other costs associated with the announced closure of a facility in Europe.

Fuel Systems

•During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the segment recorded $3 million of restructuring costs, primarily related to equipment relocation and professional fees.

2019 Legacy Delphi Technologies Plan

•During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the segment recorded $5 million of restructuring costs related to this plan, primarily related to employee severance and equipment moves.

•During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the segment recorded $29 million and $56 million, respectively, of restructuring costs related to this plan. These costs were primarily for the statutory minimum benefits and incremental one-time termination benefits negotiated with local labor authorities.

Estimates of restructuring expense are based on information available at the time such charges are recorded. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in estimating restructuring expenses, actual amounts paid for such activities may differ from amounts initially recorded. Accordingly, the Company may record revisions of previous estimates by adjusting previously established accruals.

Table of Contents

The Company continues to evaluate different options across its operations to reduce existing structural costs over the next few years. The Company will recognize restructuring expense associated with any future actions at the time they are approved and become probable or are incurred. Any future actions could result in significant restructuring expense.

NOTE 6 RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS

The Company’s net Research & Development (“R&D”) expenditures are included in Selling, general and administrative expenses of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Customer reimbursements are netted against gross R&D expenditures as they are considered a recovery of cost. Customer reimbursements for prototypes are recorded net of prototype costs based on customer contracts, typically either when the prototype is shipped or when it is accepted by the customer. Customer reimbursements for engineering services are recorded when performance obligations are satisfied in accordance with the contract. Financial risks and rewards transfer upon shipment, acceptance of a prototype component by the customer or upon completion of the performance obligation, as stated in the respective customer agreement. The Company has contracts with several customers relating to R&D activities that the Company performs at the Company’s various R&D locations.

The following table presents the Company’s gross and net expenditures on R&D activities:

Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30,

NOTE 8 INCOME TAXES

The Company’s provision for income taxes is based upon an estimated annual tax rate for the year applied to federal, state and foreign income. On a quarterly basis, the annual effective tax rate is adjusted, as appropriate, based upon changed facts and circumstances, if any, as compared to those forecasted at the beginning of the fiscal year and each interim period thereafter.

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was 26% and 40%, respectively. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, a discrete tax benefit of approximately $1 million was recorded relating to other tax adjustments. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2021, the Company’s effective tax rate was unfavorably impacted by $59 million of restructuring expenses and merger, acquisition and divestiture expenses, some of which were non-deductible for tax purposes. As such, the Company recognized a de minimis tax benefit associated with these expenses in the three months ended September 30, 2021.

The Company’s effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was 25% and 24%, respectively. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, a discrete tax benefit of $9 million was recorded relating to other tax adjustments. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021, unrecognized tax benefits and accrued interest were decreased for the lapse of the statute of limitations in a non-US jurisdiction for a tax holiday matter which, net of unrecognized foreign tax credits, resulted in a $55 million tax benefit. Additionally, an increase in the United Kingdom (“UK”) tax rate from 19% to 25% effective April 1, 2023, was enacted in June 2021, resulting in a discrete tax benefit of $20 million as a result of the revaluation of net deferred tax asset balances. Further, the Company’s effective tax rate included a net discrete tax benefit of $33 million primarily related to changes to certain withholding rates applied to unremitted earnings. The effective tax rate was unfavorably impacted by $179 million of restructuring expenses and merger, acquisition and divestiture expenses, some of which were non-deductible for tax purposes. The Company recognized $22 million of tax benefit associated with these expenses in the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

The annual effective tax rates differ from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to foreign rates which vary from those in the U.S., jurisdictions with pretax losses for which no tax benefit could be realized, U.S. taxes on foreign earnings, the realization of certain business tax credits (including foreign tax credits), and permanent differences between book and tax treatment for certain items (including the Foreign-Derived Intangible Income (“FDII”) deduction and the enhanced deduction of research and development expenses in certain jurisdictions).

NOTE 11 GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLES

During the fourth quarter of each year, the Company assesses its goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets assigned to each of its reporting units. In addition, the Company may test goodwill in between annual test dates if an event occurs or circumstances change that could more-likely-than-not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. No events or circumstances were noted in the first nine months of 2022 requiring additional assessment or testing. Future changes in the judgments, assumptions and estimates from those used in acquisition-related valuations and goodwill impairment testing, including discount rates or future operating results and related cash flow projections, could result in significantly different estimates of the fair values in the future. An increase in discount rates, a reduction in projected cash flows or a combination of the two could lead to a reduction in the estimated fair values, which may result in impairment charges that could materially affect the Company’s financial statements in any given year.

A summary of the changes in the carrying amount of goodwill are as follows:

NOTE 12 PRODUCT WARRANTY

The Company provides warranties on some, but not all, of its products. The warranty terms are typically from one to three years. Provisions for estimated expenses related to product warranty are made at the time products are sold. These estimates are established using historical information about the nature, frequency and average cost of warranty claim settlements, as well as product manufacturing and industry developments and recoveries from third parties. Management actively studies trends of warranty claims and takes action to improve product quality and minimize warranty claims. Management believes that the warranty accrual is appropriate; however, actual claims incurred could differ from the original estimates, requiring adjustments to the accrual. The product warranty accrual is allocated to current and non-current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The following table summarizes the activity in the product warranty accrual accounts:

The Company may utilize uncommitted lines of credit for short-term working capital requirements. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $53 million and $62 million, respectively, in borrowings under these facilities, which are classified in Notes payable and other short-term debt on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The following table provides details on Interest expense, net included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations:

The Company has a $2.0 billion multi-currency revolving credit facility that includes a feature allowing the Company the ability to increase the facility by $1.0 billion with bank group approval. This facility matures in March 2025. The credit agreement contains customary events of default and one key financial covenant, which is a debt-to-EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) ratio. The Company was in compliance with the financial covenant at September 30, 2022. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under this facility.

The Company’s commercial paper program allows the Company to issue up to $2.0 billion of short-term, unsecured commercial paper notes under the limits of its multi-currency revolving credit facility. Under this program, the Company may issue notes from time to time and use the proceeds for general corporate purposes. The Company had no outstanding borrowings under this program as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

The total current combined borrowing capacity under the multi-currency revolving credit facility and commercial paper program cannot exceed $2 billion.

Table of Contents

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the estimated fair values of the Company’s senior unsecured notes totaled $3,425 million and $4,421 million, respectively. The estimated fair values were $613 million lower than their carrying value at September 30, 2022 and $212 million higher than their carrying value at December 31, 2021. Fair market values of the senior unsecured notes are developed using observable values for similar debt instruments, which are considered Level 2 inputs as defined by ASC Topic 820. The carrying values of the Company's multi-currency revolving credit facility, commercial paper program and other debt facilities approximate fair value. The fair value estimates do not necessarily reflect the values the Company could realize in the current markets.

The Company had outstanding letters of credit of $40 million and $35 million at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The letters of credit typically act as guarantees of payment to certain third parties in accordance with specified terms and conditions.

NOTE 15 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

ASC Topic 820 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. Therefore, a fair value measurement should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair values as follows:

Level 1:Observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;

Level 2:Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3:Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are based on one or more of the following three valuation techniques noted in ASC Topic 820:

A.Market approach: Prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets, liabilities or a group of assets or liabilities, such as a business.

B.Cost approach: Amount that would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost).

C.Income approach: Techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount based upon market expectations (including present value techniques, option-pricing and excess earnings models).

The following tables classify assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

_____________________________

1 Certain assets that are measured at fair value using the NAV per share (or its equivalent) practical expedient have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy. These amounts represent investments in commingled and managed funds that have underlying assets in fixed income securities, equity securities, and other assets and the fair values have been estimated using the net asset value of the Company's ownership interest in partners' capital. The Company’s redemption of its investments with the funds is governed by the partnership agreements and subject to approval from the general partners. With the exception of annual distributions in connection with the Company’s deemed tax liability, distributions from each fund will be received as the underlying investments of the funds are liquidated, the timing of which is unknown.

NOTE 16 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and accounts receivable. Due to the short-term nature of these instruments, their book value approximates their fair value. The Company’s financial instruments may also include long-term debt, investments in equity securities, interest rate and cross-currency swaps, commodity derivative contracts and foreign currency derivative contracts. All derivative contracts are placed with counterparties that have an S&P, or equivalent, investment grade credit rating at the time of the contracts’ placement. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had no derivative contracts that contained credit risk-related contingent features.

Table of Contents

The Company, at times, uses certain commodity derivative contracts to protect against commodity price changes related to forecasted raw material and component purchases. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had no material commodity derivative contracts.

The Company manages its interest rate risk by balancing its exposure to fixed and variable rates while attempting to optimize its interest costs. The Company, at times, selectively uses interest rate swaps and options to reduce market value risk associated with changes in interest rates (fair value hedges and cash flow hedges). At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had no outstanding interest rate swaps or options.

The Company uses foreign currency forward and option contracts to protect against exchange rate movements for forecasted cash flows, including capital expenditures, purchases, operating expenses or sales transactions designated in currencies other than the functional currency of the operating unit. In addition, the Company uses foreign currency forward contracts to hedge exposure associated with its net investment in certain foreign operations (net investment hedges). Foreign currency derivative contracts require the Company, at a future date, to either buy or sell foreign currency in exchange for the operating units’ local currency. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the following foreign currency derivative contracts were outstanding and mature through the ending duration noted below:

The Company selectively uses cross-currency swaps to hedge the foreign currency exposure associated with its net investment in certain foreign operations (net investment hedges). In May 2022, the Company terminated its $100 million cross-currency swap contract originally maturing in February 2023 and executed a $100 million cross-currency swap contract to mature in February 2029, resulting in cash proceeds of $16 million that are expected to remain in accumulated other comprehensive loss until the net investment is sold, completely liquidated or substantially liquidated. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the following cross-currency swap contracts were outstanding:

Effectiveness for cash flow hedges is assessed at the inception of the hedging relationship and quarterly, thereafter. Gains and losses arising from these contracts that are included in the assessment of effectiveness are deferred into accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) and reclassified into income as the underlying operating transactions are recognized. These realized gains or losses offset the hedged transaction and are recorded on the same line in the statement of operations. The initial value of any component excluded from the assessment of effectiveness will be recognized in income using a systematic and rational method over the life of the hedging instrument. Any difference between the change in fair value of the excluded component and amounts recognized in income under that systematic and rational method will be recognized in AOCI.

Effectiveness for net investment hedges is assessed at the inception of the hedging relationship and quarterly, thereafter. Gains and losses arising from these contracts that are included in the assessment of effectiveness are deferred into foreign currency translation adjustments and only released when the subsidiary being hedged is sold or substantially liquidated. The initial value of any component excluded from the assessment of effectiveness will be recognized in income using a systematic and rational method over the life of the hedging instrument. Any difference between the change in fair value of the excluded component and amounts recognized in income under that systematic and rational method will be recognized in AOCI.

The table below shows deferred gains (losses) reported in AOCI as well as the amount expected to be reclassified to income in one year or less for designated net investment hedges. The amount expected to be reclassified to income in one year or less assumes no change in the current relationship of the hedged item at September 30, 2022 market rates.

NOTE 20 CONTINGENCIES

In the normal course of business, the Company is party to various commercial and legal claims, actions and complaints, including matters involving warranty claims, intellectual property claims, general liability and other risks. It is not possible to predict with certainty whether or not the Company will ultimately be successful in any of these commercial and legal matters or, if not, what the impact might be. The Company’s management does not expect that an adverse outcome in any of these commercial and legal claims, actions and complaints that are currently pending will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. An adverse outcome could, nonetheless, be material to the results of operations or cash flows.

Environmental

The Company and certain of its current and former direct and indirect corporate predecessors, subsidiaries and divisions have been identified by the United States Environmental Protection Agency and certain state environmental agencies and private parties as potentially responsible parties (“PRPs”) at various hazardous waste disposal sites under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“Superfund”) and equivalent state laws and, as such, may presently be liable for the cost of clean-up and other remedial activities at 26 such sites as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Responsibility for clean-up and other remedial activities at a Superfund site is typically shared among PRPs based on an allocation formula.

The Company believes that none of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Generally, this is because either the estimates of the maximum potential liability at a site are not material or the liability will be shared with other PRPs, although no assurance can be given with respect to the ultimate outcome of any such matter.

The Company had an accrual for environmental liabilities of $8 million and $7 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, included in Other current and Other non-current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. This accrual, which relates to eight of the sites, is based on information available to the Company (which, in most cases, includes an estimate of allocation of liability among PRPs; the probability that other PRPs, many of whom are large, solvent public companies, will fully pay the cost apportioned to them; currently available information from PRPs and/or federal or state environmental agencies concerning the scope of contamination and estimated remediation and consulting costs; and remediation alternatives). Clean-up and other remedial activities are complete or nearing completion at the other 18 sites, for which there was no accrual as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

NOTE 21 EARNINGS PER SHARE

The Company presents both basic and diluted earnings per share of common stock (“EPS”) amounts. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net earnings attributable to BorgWarner Inc. by the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing net earnings attributable to BorgWarner Inc. by the weighted average shares of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during the reporting period.

The dilutive impact of stock-based compensation is calculated using the treasury stock method. The treasury stock method assumes that the Company uses the assumed proceeds from the exercise of awards to repurchase common stock at the average market price during the period. The assumed proceeds under the treasury stock method include the purchase price that the grantee will pay in the future and compensation cost for future service that the Company has not yet recognized. The dilutive effects of performance-based stock awards are included in the computation of diluted earnings per share at the level the related performance criteria are met through the respective balance sheet date. There were 0.9 million and 0.6 million performance share units excluded from the computation of the diluted earnings for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. There were 0.9 million and 0.8 million performance share units excluded from the computation of the diluted earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. These units were excluded because the related performance criteria had not been met as of the balance sheet dates.

The following table reconciles the numerators and denominators used to calculate basic and diluted earnings per share of common stock:

NOTE 22 REPORTING SEGMENTS AND RELATED INFORMATION

The Company’s business is aggregated into four reporting segments: Air Management, e-Propulsion & Drivetrain, Fuel Systems (formerly known as Fuel Injection) and Aftermarket. These segments are strategic business groups that are managed separately as each represents a specific grouping of related automotive components and systems.

In the first quarter of 2022, the Company announced that the starter and alternator business, previously reported in its e-Propulsion & Drivetrain segment, would transition to the Aftermarket segment. The Company also announced that the canisters and fuel delivery modules business, previously reported in its Air Management segment, would transition to the Fuel Systems segment. Both of these transitions were completed during the second quarter of 2022. The reporting segment disclosures have been updated accordingly which included recasting prior period information for the new reporting structure.

Additionally, during the first quarter of 2022, the Company updated the definition of its measure of segment income or loss to exclude the impact of intangible asset amortization expense. The Company believes this change improves comparability of ongoing operations given the increasing operating margin impact of intangible asset amortization arising from the Company’s merger and acquisition activity. The prior period information disclosed below has been recast to reflect this change. Further, the Company renamed its measure of segment income or loss from Segment Adjusted EBIT to Segment Adjusted Operating Income.

Segment Adjusted Operating Income is comprised of operating income adjusted for restructuring, merger, acquisition and divestiture expense, intangible asset amortization expense, impairment charges and other items not reflective of ongoing operating income or loss.

Segment Adjusted Operating Income is the measure of segment income or loss used by the Company. The Company believes Segment Adjusted Operating Income is most reflective of the operational profitability or loss of our reporting segments. The following tables show segment information and Segment Adjusted Operating Income for the Company’s reporting segments:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

INTRODUCTION

BorgWarner Inc. and Consolidated Subsidiaries (the “Company” or “BorgWarner”) is a global product leader in clean and efficient technology solutions for combustion, hybrid and electric vehicles. The Company’s products help improve vehicle performance, propulsion efficiency, stability and air quality. These products are manufactured and sold worldwide, primarily to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) of light vehicles (passenger cars, sport-utility vehicles (“SUVs”), vans and light trucks). The Company’s products are also sold to other OEMs of commercial vehicles (medium-duty trucks, heavy-duty trucks and buses) and off-highway vehicles (agricultural and construction machinery and marine applications). The Company also manufactures and sells its products to certain tier one vehicle systems suppliers and into the aftermarket for light, commercial and off-highway vehicles. The Company operates manufacturing facilities serving customers in Europe, the Americas and Asia and is an original equipment supplier to nearly every major automotive OEM in the world.

Santroll Automotive Components

On March 31, 2022, the Company completed its acquisition of 100% of Santroll Automotive Components (“Santroll”), a carve-out of Santroll Electric Auto’s eMotor business, pursuant to the terms of an Equity Transfer Agreement (“ETA”). The acquisition is expected to strengthen the Company’s vertical integration, scale and portfolio breadth in light vehicle eMotors while allowing for increased speed to market. The total final consideration was $207 million, which includes final working capital and net debt adjustments of $5 million. The consideration includes approximately ¥1.1 billion ($167 million) of base purchase price and ¥0.25 billion ($40 million) of originally estimated earn-out payments. The Company paid approximately ¥1.0 billion ($157 million) of base purchase price in the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The remaining $10 million of base purchase price is recorded in Other current liabilities in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2022. Results of operations for Santroll are included in the Company’s financial information following the date of acquisition. Refer to Note 3, “Acquisitions,” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of this report for more information.

AKASOL

Key Trends and Economic Factors

COVID-19 and Supplier Disruptions. The impact of COVID-19, including changes in consumer behavior, pandemic fears and market downturns, and restrictions on business and individual activities, has created significant volatility in the global economy. Recent COVID-19 outbreaks in certain regions continue to cause intermittent COVID-19-related disruptions in the Company’s supply chain and local manufacturing operations. For a significant portion of the second quarter of 2022, China imposed lock-downs in many cities due to an increase in COVID-19 cases in the region, which contributed to a decline in industry production in China during the quarter. The Company also continues to face supplier disruptions due to a global semiconductor shortage in the automotive industry. Further, actions taken by Russia in Ukraine have impacted the automotive industry particularly in Europe, including the Company’s suppliers, its customers and its operations more generally. The Company is in the process of winding down its Aftermarket operation in Russia, which is not material to the Company’s financial statements.

Commodities and Other Inflationary Impacts. Prices for commodities remain volatile, and beginning in 2021, the Company has experienced price increases for base metals (e.g., steel, aluminum and nickel), precious metals (e.g., palladium), and raw materials that are primarily used in batteries for electric vehicles (e.g., lithium and cobalt). In addition, many global economies, including the United States, are experiencing elevated levels of inflation more generally, which is driving an increase in other input costs. As a result, the Company has experienced, and is continuing to experience, higher costs.

The Company continues to negotiate the pass through and recovery of higher costs with customers. Certain agreements were substantively reached with various customers in the second and third quarters of 2022. These agreements do not enable the Company to recover 100 percent of its increased costs, and as a result, the Company’s operating margins have been negatively impacted.

Foreign Currency Impacts. The rapid strengthening of the U.S. Dollar relative to major foreign currencies, including the Euro, Korean Won and Chinese Renminbi, and related translation of these currencies to the U.S. Dollar unfavorably impacted the Company’s net sales, earnings and cash flows. Continued significant fluctuations of foreign currencies against the U.S. Dollar may further negatively impact the Company’s financial results.

Outlook

The Company continues to expect global industry production to modestly increase year over year in 2022. However, various global disruptions, including, but not limited to, input cost inflation, supply chain disruptions and further impacts from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine could impact the Company’s 2022 expectation. The Company also expects net new business-related sales growth, due to increased penetration of BorgWarner products around the world, to drive a sales increase in excess of the expected growth in industry production. As a result of all of these considerations, the Company expects increased revenue in 2022, excluding the impact of foreign currencies.

The Company expects its results to be impacted by a planned increase in Research & Development (“R&D”) expenditures during 2022. This planned R&D increase is to support growth in the Company’s electric vehicle-related products and is primarily related to supporting the development and launch of recently awarded programs. The Company also expects higher commodity costs, particularly related to steel and petroleum-based resin products and other supplier cost increases to negatively impact its results of operations. The Company expects to only partially mitigate these items through various contractual pass-through arrangements with its customers, continued commercial negotiations with the Company’s customers and suppliers, cost reductions due to the Company’s restructuring activities and synergies related to the acquisition of Delphi Technologies.

The Company maintains a positive long-term outlook for its global business and is committed to new product development and strategic investments to enhance its product leadership strategy. There are

Table of Contents

several trends that are driving the Company’s long-term growth that management expects to continue, including adoption of product offerings for electrified vehicles and increasingly stringent global emissions standards that support demand for the Company’s products driving vehicle efficiency.

Net earnings attributable to BorgWarner Inc. $ 273 6.7 % $ 96 2.8 %
Earnings per share — diluted $ 1.16 $ 0.40

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2022 totaled $4,060 million, an increase of 19% compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021. In December 2021, the Company sold its Water Valley, Mississippi manufacturing facility, which accounted for $38 million of net sales in the three months ended September 30, 2021 that did not recur in 2022. Foreign currencies resulted in a year-over-year decrease in sales of approximately $320 million primarily due to the weakening of the Euro, Korean Won and Chinese Renminbi relative to the U.S. Dollar. The increase excluding these items was primarily due to higher industry production compared to the prior year, increased demand for the Company’s products and the impact of commercial negotiations with the Company’s customers.

Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales was 80.1% during the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to 81.0% during the three months ended September 30, 2021. The Company’s material cost as a percentage of sales was 57% and 54% of net sales during the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase in material cost as a percentage of sales reflects increasing commodity and other material and input costs. Gross profit and gross margin were

$806 million and 19.9%, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $650 million and 19.0%, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in gross margin was primarily due to conversion on higher revenue, partially offset by higher material costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) for the three months ended September 30, 2022 were $397 million as compared to $343 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. SG&A as a percentage of net sales was 9.8% and 10.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Research and Development (“R&D”) costs, net of customer reimbursements, were $199 million, or 4.9% of net sales, for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $184 million, or 5.4% of net sales, for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in R&D costs, net of customer reimbursements, was primarily due to increasing net investment related to the Company’s electrification product portfolio. The Company will continue to invest in R&D programs, which are necessary to support short- and long-term growth. The Company’s current long-term expectation for R&D spending is in the range of 5.0% to 5.5% of net sales.

Restructuring expense was $8 million and $51 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, primarily related to employee benefit costs. Refer to Note 5 “Restructuring” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of this report for more information.

Other operating expense, net was $12 million and $3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. For both the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, merger, acquisition and divestiture related expenses, net were $8 million. Additionally, during the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company revised its estimate of the expected earn-out related to a previous divestiture resulting in a $9 million loss in the period.

Other operating expense, net is primarily comprised of items included within the subtitle “Non-comparable items impacting the Company’s earnings per diluted share and net earnings” below.

Equity in affiliates’ earnings, net of tax was $10 million and $12 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. This line item is driven by the results of the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures.

Unrealized (gain) loss on equity securities was a gain of $1 million and a loss of $61 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. This line item reflects the net unrealized gains or losses recognized due to the recording of the Company’s investments at fair value. For further details, see Note 3, “Acquisitions,” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of this report.

Interest expense, net was $12 million and $18 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. This decrease was primarily due to higher interest rates on cash and cash equivalents balances and lower expense related to the Company’s cross-currency swaps.

Provision for income taxes was $104 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, resulting in an effective rate of 26%. This is compared to $79 million, an effective rate of 40%, for the three-month period ended September 30, 2021.

During the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company’s effective tax rate was unfavorably impacted by $59 million of restructuring expenses and merger, acquisition and divestiture expenses, some of which were non-deductible for tax purposes. As such, the Company recognized a de minimis tax benefit associated with these expenses in the three months ended September 30, 2021.

Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 totaled $11,693 million, an increase of 5% from the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Acquisitions, primarily AKASOL, contributed $124 million in additional sales in the nine months ended September 30, 2022. In December 2021, the Company sold its Water Valley, Mississippi manufacturing facility, which accounted for $137 million of net sales in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 that did not recur in 2022. Foreign currencies resulted in a year-over-year decrease in sales of approximately $654 million primarily due to the weakening of the Euro, Korean Won and Chinese Renminbi relative to the U.S. Dollar. The increase excluding these items was primarily due to higher industry production compared to the prior year, increased demand for the Company’s products and the impact of commercial negotiations with the Company’s customers.

Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales was 80.6% during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to 80.1% during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The Company’s material cost as a percentage of sales was 57% and 54% of net sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase in material cost as a percentage of sales reflects increasing commodity and other material and input costs. Gross profit and gross margin were $2,268 million and 19.4%, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $2,230 million and 19.9%, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to increases in commodity and other input costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 were $1,179 million as compared to $1,084 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. SG&A as a percentage of net sales was 10.1% and 9.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase in SG&A was primarily attributable to increased research and development costs, partially offset by decreases in employee costs.

Research and Development (“R&D”) costs, net of customer reimbursements, were $597 million, or 5.1% of net sales, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $533 million, or 4.8% of net sales, for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in R&D costs, net of customer reimbursements, was primarily due to increasing net investment related to the Company’s electrification product portfolio.

Restructuring expense was $50 million and $143 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, primarily related to employee benefit costs. Refer to Note 5 “Restructuring” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of this report for more information.

During 2022, the Company approved individual restructuring actions that primarily related to specific reductions in headcount. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded $18 million related to these actions.

In February 2020, the Company announced a $300 million restructuring plan to address existing structural costs. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded $28 million and $81 million of restructuring charges related to this plan, respectively. Cumulatively, the Company has incurred $279 million of restructuring charges related to this plan. As of September 30, 2022 the plan is substantially complete, with any remaining restructuring costs expected to be incurred by the end of 2022. The resulting annual gross savings are expected to be in excess of $100 million and will be utilized to sustain overall operating margin profile and cost competitiveness.

Other operating expense, net was $26 million and $30 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, merger, acquisition and divestiture related expenses, net were $40 million and $36 million, respectively. The increase in 2022 was primarily related to professional fees associated with specific acquisition and disposition initiatives.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded a pre-tax gain of $24 million in connection with the sale of its interest in BorgWarner Romeo Power LLC (“Romeo JV”), in which the Company owned a 60% interest. Refer to Note 3, “Acquisitions,” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of this report for more information.

Other operating expense, net is primarily comprised of items included within the subtitle “Non-comparable items impacting the Company’s earnings per diluted share and net earnings” below.

Equity in affiliates’ earnings, net of tax was $29 million and $40 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. This line item is driven by the results of the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures.

Unrealized loss on equity securities was $27 million and $337 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. This line item reflects the net unrealized gains or losses recognized due to recording the Company’s investments at fair value, and the 2021 amount was primarily related to the Company’s investment in Romeo Power, Inc. In the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company sold all of its remaining investment in Romeo Power, Inc. For further details, see Note 3, “Acquisitions,” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of this report.

Interest expense, net was $42 million and $75 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease in interest expense, net was primarily due to the $20 million loss on debt extinguishment recorded in 2021 that related to the early repayment of the Company’s €500 million 1.800% senior notes settled on June 18, 2021.

Provision for income taxes was $252 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, resulting in an effective rate of 25%. This is compared to $149 million, an effective rate of 24%, for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized a $55 million tax benefit related to a reduction in certain unrecognized tax benefits and accrued interest for a matter in which the statute of limitations had lapsed. The Company also recognized a discrete tax benefit of $20 million related to an increase in its deferred tax assets as a result of an increase in the United Kingdom (“UK”) statutory tax rate from 19% to 25%. Further, the Company’s effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 included a net discrete tax benefit of $33 million, primarily related to changes to certain withholding rates applied to unremitted earnings. The effective tax rate was unfavorably impacted by $179 million of restructuring expenses and merger, acquisition and divestiture expenses, some of which were largely non-deductible for tax purposes. The Company recognized $22 million of tax benefit associated with these expenses in the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Non-comparable items impacting the Company’s earnings per diluted share

The Company’s earnings per diluted share were $1.16 and $0.40 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $2.90 and $1.70 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company believes the table below is useful in highlighting non-comparable items that impacted its earnings per diluted share. The non-comparable items presented below are calculated after tax using the corresponding effective tax rate discrete to each item and the weighted average number of diluted shares for each of the periods then ended.

Results by Reporting Segment

The Company’s business is aggregated into four reporting segments: Air Management, e-Propulsion & Drivetrain, Fuel Systems (formerly known as Fuel Injection) and Aftermarket. These segments are strategic business groups that are managed separately as each represents a specific grouping of related automotive components and systems.

In the first quarter of 2022, the Company announced that the starter and alternator business, previously reported in its e-Propulsion & Drivetrain segment, would transition to the Aftermarket segment. The

Company also announced that the canisters and fuel delivery modules business, previously reported in its Air Management segment, would transition to the Fuel Systems segment. Both of these transitions were completed during the second quarter of 2022. The reporting segment disclosures have been updated accordingly which included recasting prior period information for the new reporting structure.

Additionally, during the first quarter of 2022, the Company updated the definition of its measure of segment income or loss to exclude the impact of intangible asset amortization expense. The Company believes this change improves comparability of ongoing operations given the increasing operating margin impact of intangible asset amortization arising from the Company’s merger and acquisition activity. The prior period information disclosed below has been recast to reflect this change. Further, the Company renamed its measure of segment income or loss from Segment Adjusted EBIT to Segment Adjusted Operating Income.

Segment Adjusted Operating Income is comprised of operating income adjusted for restructuring, merger, acquisition and divestiture expense, intangible asset amortization expense, impairment charges and other items not reflective of ongoing operating income or loss.

Segment Adjusted Operating Income is the measure of segment income or loss used by the Company. The Company believes Segment Adjusted Operating Income is most reflective of the operational profitability or loss of our reporting segments.

The following tables presents net sales and Segment Adjusted Operating Income for the Company’s reporting segments:

Three Months Ended September 30, 2022 vs. Three Months Ended September 30, 2021

The Air Management segment’s net sales increased $332 million, or 21%, and Segment Adjusted Operating Income increased $63 million from the three months ended September 30, 2021. Foreign currencies resulted in a year-over-year decrease in sales of approximately $177 million primarily due to the weakening of the Euro, Korean Won and Chinese Renminbi relative to the U.S. Dollar. The increase excluding these items was primarily due to higher industry production compared to the prior year and the impact of commercial negotiations with the Company’s customers. The Segment Adjusted Operating margin was 14.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to 13.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The Segment Adjusted Operating margin increase was primarily due to higher revenue which was partially offset by inflationary impacts on costs.

The e-Propulsion & Drivetrain segment’s net sales increased $237 million, or 21%, and Segment Adjusted Operating Income increased $3 million from the three months ended September 30, 2021. In December 2021, the Company sold its Water Valley, Mississippi manufacturing facility which accounted for $38 million of net sales in the three months ended September 30, 2021 that did not recur in 2022. Foreign currencies resulted in a year-over-year decrease in sales of approximately $82 million primarily due to the weakening of the Euro, Chinese Renminbi and Korean Won relative to the U.S. Dollar. The increase excluding these items was primarily due to increased demand for the Company’s products,

FINANCIAL CONDITION, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

The Company maintains various liquidity sources, including cash and cash equivalents and the unused portion of its multi-currency revolving credit agreement. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had liquidity of $3,241 million, comprised of cash and cash equivalent balances of $1,241 million and an undrawn revolving credit facility of $2,000 million. The Company was in full compliance with its covenants under the revolving credit facility and had full access to its undrawn revolving credit facility.

The Company has a $2.0 billion multi-currency revolving credit facility that includes a feature allowing the Company the ability to increase the facility by $1.0 billion with bank group approval. This facility matures in March 2025. The credit facility agreement contains customary events of default and one key financial covenant, which is a debt-to-EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) ratio. The Company was in compliance with the financial covenant at September 30, 2022. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under this facility.

CONTINGENCIES

In the normal course of business, the Company is party to various commercial and legal claims, actions and complaints, including matters involving warranty claims, intellectual property claims, general liability and other risks. It is not possible to predict with certainty whether or not the Company will ultimately be successful in any of these commercial and legal matters or, if not, what the impact might be. The Company’s management does not expect that an adverse outcome in any of these commercial and legal claims, actions and complaints that are currently pending will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. An adverse outcome could, nonetheless, be material to the results of operations or cash flows.

Environmental

The Company and certain of its current and former direct and indirect corporate predecessors, subsidiaries and divisions have been identified by the United States Environmental Protection Agency and certain state environmental agencies and private parties as potentially responsible parties (“PRPs”) at various hazardous waste disposal sites under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“Superfund”) and equivalent state laws and, as such, may presently be liable for the cost of clean-up and other remedial activities at 26 such sites as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Responsibility for clean-up and other remedial activities at a Superfund site is typically shared among PRPs based on an allocation formula.

Table of Contents

The Company believes that none of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Generally, this is because either the estimates of the maximum potential liability at a site are not material or the liability will be shared with other PRPs, although no assurance can be given with respect to the ultimate outcome of any such matter.

Refer to Note 20, “Contingencies,” to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of this report for further details and information respecting the Company’s environmental liability.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There have been no material changes to the information concerning the Company’s exposures to interest rate risk or commodity price risk as stated in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Foreign currency exchange rate risk is the risk that the Company will incur economic losses due to adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Currently, the Company’s most significant currency exposures relate to the Brazilian Real, British Pound, Chinese Renminbi, Euro, Polish Zloty, Singapore Dollar, Korean Won, Mexican Peso, Thailand Baht and Turkish Lira. The Company mitigates its foreign currency exchange rate risk by establishing local production facilities and related supply chain participants in the markets it serves, by invoicing customers in the same currency as the source of the products and by funding some of its investments in foreign markets through local currency loans. The Company also monitors its foreign currency exposure in each country and implements strategies to respond to changing economic and political environments. In addition, the Company regularly enters into forward currency contracts, cross-currency swaps and foreign currency denominated debt designated as net investment hedges to reduce exposure to translation exchange rate risk. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company recorded a deferred gain of $385 million and $10 million, respectively, both before taxes, for designated net investment hedges within accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

The significant foreign currency translation adjustments during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 are shown in the following tables, which provide the percentage change in U.S. dollar against the respective currencies and the approximate impacts of these changes recorded within other comprehensive income (loss) for the respective periods.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that 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. Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these controls and procedures are effective. There have been no changes in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Purported Derivative Lawsuit

On December 15, 2020, a putative derivative lawsuit captioned Nyiradi, et al. v. Michas, et al., Case 1:20-cv-01700, was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware against certain current and former directors and former officers of BorgWarner. On April 22, 2021, the plaintiffs dismissed the case without prejudice, without any payment by the Company. On June 9, 2021, a different stockholder delivered a litigation demand to the Board of Directors (the “Board”) under Delaware law that included similar allegations and demanded that the Board conduct an investigation and commence a civil action against appropriate directors and officers. On January 20, 2022, the parties agreed to a memorandum of understanding (the “MOU”) detailing, among other things, mutually agreed upon corporate governance reforms that the Company would implement.

Following the agreement to the MOU by the parties, on May 23, 2022 stockholders Don David Price, Maria Nyiradi, and Peter Wahler (the “Plaintiffs”) filed a derivative action with the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan captioned Price, et al. v. Michas, et. Al. (E.D. Mich.). On June 2, 2022, the Company and the Plaintiffs filed with the court an agreement to settle the derivative action (the “Stipulation of Settlement”). As part of Stipulation of Settlement, the Company: (i) agreed to adopt certain governance reforms, and (ii) agreed to attorneys’ fees and expenses in an amount under $1 million. On September 26, 2022, the court issued a final order approving the Stipulation of Settlement.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, there have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

In January 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the purchase of up to $1 billion of the Company’s common stock, which replaced the previous share repurchase program. As of September 30, 2022, the Company has repurchased $456 million of common stock under this repurchase program. Shares purchased under this authorization may be repurchased in the open market at prevailing prices and at times and in amounts to be determined by management as market conditions and the Company's capital position warrant. The Company may use Rule 10b5-1 and 10b-18 plans to facilitate share repurchases. Repurchased shares will be deemed common stock held in treasury and may subsequently be reissued.

Employee transactions include restricted stock withheld to offset statutory minimum tax withholding that occurs upon vesting of restricted stock. The BorgWarner Inc. 2018 Stock Incentive Plan provides that the withholding obligations be settled by the Company retaining stock that is part of the award. Withheld shares will be deemed common stock held in treasury and may subsequently be reissued for general corporate purposes.

163368135_4

with respect to any rate (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the selection  of such rate and any related spread or other adjustment) that is an alternative or replacement for or successor to any such rate (including, without limitation, any Successor Rate) (or any component of any of the foregoing) or the effect of any of the foregoing, or of any Conforming Changes. The Administrative Agent and its affiliates or other related entities may engage in transactions or other activities unrelated to the Credit Agreement or the Borrower that affect any reference rate referred to herein, or any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including, without limitation, any Successor Rate) (or any component of any of the foregoing) or any related spread or other adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrower.  The Administrative Agent may select information sources or services commonly used in the banking industry for such purposes in its reasonable good faith discretion to ascertain any reference rate referred to herein or any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including, without limitation, any Successor Rate) (or any component of any of the foregoing), in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or other action or omission related to or affecting the selection, determination, or calculation of any rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

(d)    Borrowings, Conversions, Continuations and Prepayments of Term SOFR Loans. In addition to any other borrowing or prepayment requirements set forth in the Credit Agreement:

(i)    Term SOFR Loans. Each Borrowing, each conversion of Loans (other than Swingline Loans) from one Type to the other, and each continuation of Term SOFR Loans shall be made upon the Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, which may be given by (A) telephone or (B) a Loan Notice; provided that any telephonic notice must be confirmed immediately by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Loan Notice. Each such Loan Notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (Eastern time) (1) two Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term SOFR Loans or of any conversion of Term SOFR Loans to Base Rate Loans or (2) on the date of any proposed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans; provided that any such notice of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.5(c) of the Credit Agreement may be given not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term SOFR Loans shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Each Loan Notice shall specify (i) whether the Borrower is requesting a Borrowing, a conversion of Loans from one Type to the other, or a continuation of Term SOFR Loans, (ii) the requested date of the Borrowing, conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the principal amount of Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, (iv) the Type of Loans to be borrowed or to which existing Loans are to be converted, and (v) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto. If the Borrower fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Loan Notice or if the Borrower fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then the applicable Loans shall be made as, or converted to, Base Rate Loans. Any such automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable Term SOFR Loans. If the Borrower requests a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Term SOFR Loans in any such Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month.

(ii)    Conforming Changes. With respect to SOFR or Term SOFR, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the Credit Agreement or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that, with

163368135_4

respect to any such amendment effected, the Administrative Agent shall post each such amendment implementing such Conforming Changes to the Borrower and the Lenders promptly upon such amendment becoming effective.

(iii)    Loan Notice. For purposes of a Borrowing of Term SOFR Loans, or a continuation of a Term SOFR Loan, the Borrower shall use the Loan Notice attached hereto as Exhibit B.

(e)    Interest.

(i)    Subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement with respect to default interest, each Term SOFR Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the sum of Term SOFR plus the Applicable Rate.

(ii)    Interest on each Term SOFR Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified in the Credit Agreement; provided, that any prepayment of any Term SOFR Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.16 of the Credit Agreement. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any debtor relief law.

(f)     Computations. All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans (including Base Rate Loans determined by reference to Term SOFR) shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest with respect to Term SOFR Loans shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to the provisions in the Credit Agreement addressing payments generally, bear interest for one day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent demonstrable error.

(g)    Successor Rates. The provisions in the Credit Agreement addressing the replacement of a current Successor Rate for Dollars shall be deemed to apply to Term SOFR Loans and Term SOFR, as applicable, and the related defined terms shall be deemed to include Dollars and Term SOFR, as applicable.

Executive shall serve as the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company until the effective date of the Board’s appointment of a President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company to succeed Executive (the “Successor CEO”). In the event of such appointment prior to the Retirement Date, Executive shall serve as a consultant to the Company effective on the effective date of the appointment of the Successor CEO (the “Transition Date”), and effective on the Transition Date, Executive shall resign from all positions he holds with the Company, including as a member of the Board, but he shall remain an employee of the Company until the end of the Term. From and after the Transition Date until the end of the Term (the “Transition Period”), Executive shall serve as a consultant to the Board and support the transition of his duties, as reasonably requested by the Successor CEO or by the Board from time to time, to ensure an orderly transition of such duties, including, but not limited to, providing transition advice to the Successor CEO upon request of the Successor CEO, assisting in communications with investors and analysts and, as agreed to by the parties or as necessary to perform a specific duty, advising and supporting the Company’s leadership team members.

4863-7670-8654.17

3.Compensation and Benefits.

(a)Base Salary. Prior to the Transition Date, Executive’s base salary will be as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board from time to time. During the Transition Period, the Company shall pay Executive base salary at an annual rate equal to sixty- seven percent (67%) of his annual rate of base salary as in effect immediately prior to the Transition Date.

(b)Management Incentive Plan (“MIP”). Prior to the Transition Date, Executive shall be entitled to participate in the MIP at a level commensurate with his position, and while his employment continues during the Term, he shall be entitled to receive payments under the MIP, if any, as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board in respect of any performance period that ended prior to the Transition Date. If Executive is employed at the Transition Date, then at the time the Company makes a payment under the MIP for the performance period in effect as of the Transition Date, Executive shall be entitled to receive a payment under the MIP for such performance period in an amount equal to the amount determined based on the achievement of the applicable performance goals multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days Executive served as Chief Executive Officer during such performance period and the denominator of which is 365. Executive will not participate in the MIP with respect to any performance period commencing on or after the Transition Date.

(c)Treatment of Equity Awards. During the Term (including after the Transition Date), Executive shall be eligible to receive awards under the BorgWarner Inc. 2018 Stock Incentive Plan or any successor plan thereto (the “Stock Incentive Plan”), if any, as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board at a level commensurate with the position of Chief Executive Officer and a base salary rate equal to his then current salary rate as Chief Executive Officer or, if after the Transition Date, his most recent base salary rate as Chief Executive Officer. Provided Executive terminates employment from the Company on the Retirement Date and complies with Sections 6 through 10, as determined by the Chair of the Compensation Committee of the Board, the Company shall treat such termination to be by reason of Retirement within the meaning of the Stock Incentive Plan and will treat Executive’s outstanding awards under the Stock Incentive Plan as follows:

(i)Restricted Stock. As soon as practicable after the date the release described in Section 10 becomes effective, Executive shall vest in his restricted stock that was granted under the Stock Incentive Plan within twelve (12) months prior to the Retirement Date in an amount equal to the number of such shares of restricted stock multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months Executive was employed from January 1 of the year in which the grant date occurred through the Retirement Date and the denominator of which is 12. The restricted stock granted under the Stock Incentive Plan more than twelve (12) months prior to the Retirement Date shall vest in an amount equal to the number of such shares of restricted stock multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months Executive was employed from the grant of such restricted stock through the Retirement Date and the denominator of which is the number of months in the applicable restriction period.

2

4863-7670-8654.17

(ii)    Performance Shares. (A) With respect to Executive’s performance shares granted more than twelve (12) months prior to the Retirement Date that are still outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Retirement Date, following the end of the applicable performance period occurring after the Retirement Date (but not prior to the date the release described in Section 10 becomes effective), Executive shall be entitled to vest in the number of performance shares earned, based on actual achievement of the applicable performance goals. Such payment, if any, shall not be pro-rated. (B) With respect to Executive’s performance shares granted within twelve (12) months prior to the Retirement Date that are still outstanding and unvested, following the end of the performance period (but not prior to the date the release described in Section 10 becomes effective), Executive shall be entitled to vest in the number of performance shares earned, based on actual achievement of the applicable performance goals, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months Executive was employed from January 1 of the year in which the grant date occurred through the Retirement Date and the denominator of which is 12. For the avoidance of doubt, vesting of Performance Shares shall occur following the end of the applicable performance period based on actual achievement of the applicable performance goals.

(iii)    Effect of Change in Control. If on or after the Transition Date the Executive’s restricted shares and performance shares will vest upon a change in control of the Company pursuant to the terms of the Stock Incentive Plan or upon a change of control of the Company pursuant to the Change of Control Employment Agreement dated June 21, 2022 in effect between Executive and the Company (the "COC Agreement"), then the number of restricted shares and performance shares that will vest will be the greater of (i) the number determined under the Stock Incentive Plan or the COC Agreement, as applicable, or (ii) the number determined under clauses (i) and (ii), calculated as if the Retirement Date occurred on the date of such change in control.

(d)    Financial Planning and Tax Expenses. During the Term, Executive shall be entitled to reimbursement for reasonable expenses incurred for international financial planning and advice and international tax preparation services through the Retirement Date.

(e)    Benefits. During the Term, (i) Executive shall be eligible for benefits the Company may provide from time to time to similarly situated employees, and (ii) Executive shall continue to be eligible to participate in the benefit plans and allowances for which the Executive is eligible as of the date hereof, including health care and dental benefits for Executive and his family, to the extent the Company continues to provide such benefits to employees in general. Following the Retirement Date, Executive shall continue to receive health care and other benefits as set forth in the Company's welfare benefit plans.

(f)    Repatriation. Provided Executive terminates employment from the Company on the Retirement Date and has complied with Sections 6 through 10, as determined by the Chair of the Compensation Committee of the Board, the Company shall provide Executive with its standard repatriation benefits for senior executive officers in connection with Executive’s

3

4863-7670-8654.17

relocation to France in accordance with the terms of such benefits, including with respect to the continued qualification of Executive to participate in the French health care system upon his return to France.

4.Termination of Employment.

(a)    Termination Date. Executive’s employment may be terminated prior to the Retirement Date by (i) Executive, for any reason or no reason at all, upon ninety (90) days’ prior written notice to the Company; (ii) mutual agreement of the parties, which shall be in writing; or

(iii) the Company upon Executive’s breach of any material provision of this Agreement or his engaging in illegal conduct or gross misconduct in connection with his employment, by providing written notice to Executive. While the Company may appoint the Successor CEO as this Agreement contemplates, the Company may not terminate Executive’s employment or this Agreement other than pursuant to clause (iii). Executive’s employment will automatically terminate prior to the Retirement Date upon Executive’s death or Disability. “Disability” shall mean that Executive is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months. If Executive remains employed until the Retirement Date, his employment will automatically cease on such date which will be deemed a retirement on the part of Executive.

(b)        Payments on Termination.

(i)Upon Executive’s termination of employment for any reason, he shall be entitled to receive any (A) accrued but unpaid base salary to the date of termination, (B) accrued but unused vacation, and (C) reimbursements for reasonable and necessary business expenses in accordance with the Company’s payroll practices and reimbursement policies.

(ii)If Executive’s termination of employment occurs on the Retirement Date, Executive shall also be entitled to the payment under Section 3(b) of any prorated MIP earned as Chief Executive Officer if not yet paid, vesting of equity awards described in Sections 3(c)(i) and (ii) and the repatriation benefits under Section 3(f) (collectively, the “Retirement Benefits”).

For the avoidance of any doubt, Executive shall not be entitled to benefits under the BorgWarner Inc. Transitional Income Plan upon reaching the Transition Date or thereafter.

5.Company Property.

Upon Executive’s termination of employment for any reason, Executive shall return to the Company all documents and other property belonging to the Company, including items such as his cellular phone and laptop, computer equipment and software, as well as all data, files, records, forms and other information of whatever kind, either electronic or hard copy, that constitute Confidential Information (as defined below) of the Company that have not already been

4

4863-7670-8654.17

returned by Executive. Executive agrees not to make or retain any copies, electronic or otherwise, of the Confidential Information (as defined in Section 8) of the Company.

6.Cooperation.

(a)Cooperation. During the Term and for a period of two (2) years following the end of the Term, Executive will cooperate in the development and execution of pending agreements and other documents that pertain to actions for the period he was employed. Further, if requested by the Company, and without additional consideration except as set forth in the following sentence, Executive will make himself available, during the Term and for a period of two (2) years thereafter, to cooperate with the defense or prosecution of any claims filed by or against the Company or its affiliates and will furnish his testimony if required by subpoena or when deemed reasonable and necessary by counsel for the Company, provided such times are scheduled so as not to interfere with the performance of his duties for another employer. The Company will pay Executive an hourly witness fee of $250.00 for his time following the end of the Term during which he provides cooperation services pursuant to this subsection; provided, however, that should Executive be required to provide such services for more than twenty (20) days (two (2) or more hours of service per day) during a calendar year following the end of the Term, then the Company shall pay Executive an hourly fee of $500.00 for such services (in excess of two (2) hours per day) for any day in excess of the twentieth (20th) day of services for that calendar year. The Company will, within thirty (30) days of receipt of a statement of expenses and/or documentation of all time incurred, reimburse Executive for all of his out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by him pursuant to this subsection, including travel, transportation, lodging and meals as well as related miscellaneous costs if such travel is requested of Executive by the Company.

(b)Effect of Subpoena. Executive further agrees that, in the event Executive is subpoenaed by any person or entity (including, but not limited to, any government agency) to give testimony or provide documents (in a deposition, court proceeding or otherwise) that in any way relates to Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive will give prompt notice of such request to the Company’s general counsel and will make no disclosure until the Company has had a reasonable opportunity to contest the right of the requesting person or entity to such disclosure.

7.Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation.

(a)    Non-Competition. Commencing on the date of this Agreement and for a period of two (2) years following the end of the Term or earlier termination of this Agreement, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, be employed by, consult with or otherwise perform services for a Competitor (as defined below) or own any interest in, manage or participate in the management (as an officer, director, partner, member or otherwise) of a Competitor. Executive acknowledges that, due to the nature of the Company’s business and his role as Chief Executive Officer, this non-competition provision applies in any state, county, city or part thereof in the United States and/or any foreign country in which the Company (x) does business on the date of this Agreement or at any time thereafter until the end of the Term or earlier termination of this Agreement or (y) has engaged, in the year prior to the Transition Date or during the Term, in substantial plans to do business. For purposes of this Agreement, (i) “Competitor” means a person

5

4863-7670-8654.17

or entity that is directly or indirectly Engaged in a Competing Business or is an affiliate of a person or entity that is directly or indirectly Engaged in a Competing Business, (ii) “Engaged” means to engage in, maintain, operate, assist, be occupied or associated with, have any financial or beneficial interest in, or otherwise participate in a specified business or activity, whether as an owner, stockholder, member, partner, lender, director, manager, officer or employee, licensor, advisor or consultant, or otherwise, and (iii) “Competing Business” means any business that develops, manufactures or markets technology solutions for combustion, hybrid or electric vehicles that help improve vehicle performance, propulsion efficiency, stability or air quality for sale to original equipment manufacturers of light vehicles, commercial vehicles or off-highway vehicles, to Tier One vehicle systems suppliers or into the aftermarket for light, commercial and off-highway vehicles. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at his sole discretion, the Chair of the Board may waive this non-competition covenant in whole or in part if the Chair determines that its enforcement is not required to protect the Company’s legitimate business interests. Any such waiver shall be in writing.

(b)    Non-Solicitation. Commencing on the date of this Agreement and for a period of two (2) years following the end of the Term, Executive hereby agrees not to, directly or indirectly, solicit or hire or assist any other person or entity in soliciting or hiring any employee of the Company with whom Executive has had contact or with respect to whom Executive has learned confidential information during Executive’s employment with the Company to perform services for any Competitor or attempt to induce any such employee to leave the employ of the Company. Executive acknowledges that, due to the nature of the Company’s business and his role as former Chief Executive Officer, this non-solicitation provision applies in any county, city or part thereof in the United States and/or any foreign country in which the Company does business.

(c)    Ancillary Agreements. Executive agrees that the foregoing restrictions are reasonable in scope, area and duration, are necessary for the protection of the Company’s legitimate business interests and will not result in any undue hardship for Executive. Executive agrees that the restrictions will be construed independent of any other covenant or provision of this Agreement and the existence of any claims Executive may have against the Company, whether or not arising from this Agreement, will not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Company of such restrictions.

(d)    Non-disparagement. Executive agrees that, commencing on the date of this Agreement and at any time thereafter, he will not, directly or indirectly, individually or in concert with others, engage in any conduct or make any statement calculated or likely to have the effect of undermining, disparaging or otherwise reflecting poorly upon the Company, any member of its Board of Directors or any executive officer of the Company (the “Protected Persons”) or the Company’s business. Without limitation, Executive shall not publish, communicate, post or blog disparaging or confidential information about the Protected Persons. The Company agrees that, commencing on the date of this Agreement and at any time thereafter, no member of its Strategy Board, as it existed on the Transition Date, will, directly or indirectly, individually or in concert with others, engage in any conduct or make any statement calculated or likely to have the effect of undermining, disparaging or otherwise reflecting poorly upon Executive. However, each may give truthful and non-malicious testimony if properly subpoenaed to testify under oath.

6

4863-7670-8654.17

8.Confidentiality.

The relationship between Executive and the Company is and shall continue to be one in which the Company reposes special trust and confidence in Executive and one in which Executive has and shall have a fiduciary relationship to the Company. The parties acknowledge that during Executive’s employment with the Company, including, but not limited to, during the Term, the Company will disclose to Executive or provide Executive with access to trade secrets, proprietary or confidential information (“Confidential Information”) of the Company; and/or place Executive in a position to develop business goodwill on behalf of the Company; and/or entrust Executive with business opportunities of the Company. As part of the consideration for the compensation and benefits to be paid to Executive hereunder, to protect the trade secrets and Confidential Information of the Company that have been and will in the future be disclosed or entrusted to Executive, the business goodwill of the Company and its affiliates that has been and will in the future be developed in Executive, or the business opportunities that have been and will in the future be disclosed or entrusted to Executive by the Company and its affiliates, and as an additional incentive for the Company to enter into this Agreement, the Company and Executive agree that Executive shall not, whether during the Term or thereafter, disclose to any person or entity, other than an executive of the Company or a person to whom disclosure is reasonably necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance by Executive of his duties hereunder, any Confidential Information of the Company unless disclosure is required by law or by any court, arbitrator, mediator or administrative or legislative body with jurisdiction to order Executive to disclose or make accessible any information. Executive further acknowledges that use of Confidential Information of the Company by persons who are not employees, directors, officers, advisors, or consultants of the Company would provide said persons an unfair competitive advantage that they would not have without the use of such proprietary or confidential information and that such advantage would cause the Company irreparable harm. Executive further acknowledges that because of this unfair competitive advantage, and the Company’s legitimate business interests, which include its need to protect its goodwill and the proprietary and Confidential Information, Executive has agreed to the restrictions in this Section 8.

Nothing in this Agreement is intended to interfere with or discharge a good faith disclosure to any governmental entity related to a suspected violation of law. Executive understands that he cannot and will not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secrets laws for disclosing otherwise protected trade secrets and/or confidential or proprietary information as long as the disclosure is made in (i) confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, directly or indirectly, or to an attorney and solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (ii) a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, as long as such filing is made under seal.

During the Term, Executive will not trade in securities of the Company until such time as permitted by applicable securities laws and will adhere to and be bound by all insider trading policies now or hereafter adopted by the Company, including preclearance policies and blackout periods established by the Company and applicable to designated insiders pursuant to such policies.

7

4863-7670-8654.17

9.Injunctive Relief.

Executive acknowledges that a breach of the covenants contained in Sections 6, 7, and 8 will cause irreparable harm to the Company and its goodwill, the exact amount of which will be difficult or impossible to ascertain, and that the remedies at law for any such breach will be inadequate. Accordingly, Executive agrees that in the event of a breach of any of the covenants in Sections 6, 7, and 8, and in addition to any other remedy that may be available at law or in equity, the Company will be entitled to specific performance and injunctive relief.

10.Requirement for Release Upon Termination.

Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, Executive shall not be entitled to receive the Retirement Benefits unless and until Executive has executed and delivered to the Company, within sixty (60) days following his Retirement Date, and has not revoked within the time period set forth therein, a general release in the form to be provided by the Company to Executive, which shall be substantially the same in substance as the release set forth in Exhibit A. The Company shall provide the form of release to Executive no later than ten (10) business days following his Retirement Date. Any payments or benefits that are contingent on the effectiveness of the release will be paid or provided as soon as practicable, but not more than thirty (30) days, after the release becomes effective; provided that if the period described herein during which Executive may consider and revoke the release spans two calendar years, then to the extent required by Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, any payment or benefit that is contingent on the effectiveness of such release will in all events be paid in the second calendar year.

11.Indemnification.

Nothing in this Agreement is intended to affect any obligation the Company may have under applicable law or its governing documents or through an individual agreement to indemnify Executive. For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding the end of the Term or any provision herein to the contrary, the Company shall honor its obligations under all indemnification agreements and its charter and bylaw provisions providing for indemnification or advance of expenses to Executive.

12.Miscellaneous.

(a)Assignment. Neither the Company nor Executive may assign this Agreement, except that the Company’s obligations hereunder shall be binding legal obligations of any successor to all or substantially all of the Company’s business by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise.

(b)Executive Acknowledgement. Executive represents and warrants that Executive has the sole right and exclusive authority to execute this Agreement; that the provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon Executive and Executive’s heirs, executors, administrators and other legal representatives; that Executive has not relied upon any promise or representation that is not contained within this Agreement; and that the obligations imposed upon Executive in this Agreement shall not prevent Executive from earning a satisfactory livelihood.

8

4863-7670-8654.17

(c)    Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall attach only to such provision and shall not in any manner affect or render invalid or unenforceable any other provision of this Agreement and this Agreement shall be carried out as if any such invalid or unenforceable provision were not contained herein.

(d)    Interaction with COC Agreement. If a “Change of Control” as defined in the COC Agreement occurs prior to the Transition Date, then effective upon such Change of Control, this Agreement shall terminate automatically and Executive shall be entitled to the rights and benefits provided by the COC Agreement. From and after the Transition Date, the only provisions under the COC Agreement that shall apply to Executive if a “Change of Control” (as defined in the COC Agreement) occurs on or after the Transition Date are Sections 3 and 10 of the COC Agreement; otherwise, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

Except as provided above, this Agreement contains the entire understanding between the Company and Executive relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any contrary provision in any other document, including any prior employment agreement, offer letter or memorandum of understanding between Executive and the Company, whether written or oral. However, the terms of applicable benefit plans and award agreements shall continue to apply except to the extent this Agreement. But, in the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any applicable benefit plan or award agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

(e)    Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted pursuant to the internal laws of the State of Michigan, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws. In the event of a breach or threatened breach of any of the covenants in Sections 6, 7, and 8 the Company will be entitled to immediate, temporary or preliminary injunctive relief in any court located in the State of Michigan without proof of actual damages.

(f)    Waiver. No waiver by either party at any time of any breach by the other party of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by the other party shall be deemed a waiver of any other provisions or conditions at the same time or at any prior or subsequent time.

(g)    Section 409A Compliance. It is intended that any amounts payable under this Agreement will be exempt from or comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, and Treasury Regulations relating thereto, so as not to subject Executive to the payment of any interest and tax penalty which may be imposed under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code, and this Agreement shall be interpreted and construed accordingly where possible.

(h)    Amendment. No amendment or modification of the terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon either of the parties hereto unless reduced to writing and signed by each of the parties hereto.

(i)    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original.

9

4863-7670-8654.17

(j)    Successors. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective heirs, representatives and successors and, if this Agreement shall continue in effect following a “Change of Control” (as defined in the COC Agreement), shall be assumed by any successor to the Company in the event of such a “Change of Control”.

(k)    Notices. Notices required under this Agreement shall be in writing and sent by registered U.S. mail, return receipt requested, to the following addresses or to such other address as the party being notified may have previously furnished to the other by written notice:

If to the Company: BorgWarner Inc. 3850 Hamlin Road<br><br>Auburn Hills, MI 48326 Attn: General Counsel

Executive shall bear all expense of, and be solely responsible for, all federal, state and local taxes due with respect to any payment or other benefit received under this Agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the date first written above.
