Garrett Motion Announces Resignation of Kevin Mahony from Board of Directors
PLYMOUTH, Mich. and ROLLE, Switzerland, Aug. 29, 2025 -- Garrett Motion Inc. (Nasdaq: GTX) ("Garrett" or the "Company"), a leading differentiated automotive technology provider, today announced that Kevin Mahony has resigned from its Board of Directors. Mr. Mahony also served as a member of the Nominating and Governance Committee and the Finance Committee.
Mr. Mahony joined the Board in January 2023 as a designee of funds affiliated with Centerbridge Partners, L.P. (“Centerbridge”) under the terms of the Series A Investor Rights Agreement, dated April 30, 2021 (as amended), by and among the Company, Centerbridge, and other investors. His resignation follows Centerbridge’s divestiture of a significant portion of its ownership stake in Garrett, which now holds less than 5% of the Company’s common stock.
“On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank Kevin for his valuable contributions during his tenure,” said Daniel Ninivaggi, Chairman of the Board of Garrett. “His deep engagement and collaboration have been instrumental to Garrett’s success. We wish him the best moving forward.”

With a strong team and clear priorities in place, I am confident in the Company’s path ahead.”

Forward-looking statements are any statements other than statements of historical fact and can be identified by words such as “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “goal,” “seek,” “believe,” “project,” “estimate,” “expect,” “strategy,” “future,” “likely,” “may,” “should,” “will,” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements represent our current judgment about possible future activities, events, or developments that we expect may occur in the future. In making these statements, we rely upon assumptions and analysis based on our experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions, and expected future developments, as well as other factors we consider appropriate under the circumstances. We believe these judgments are reasonable, but these statements are not guarantees of any future performance, events, or results, and actual performance, events,
or results may differ materially from those envisaged by our forward-looking statements due to a variety of important factors, many of which are described in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and our other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including risks related to the automotive industry, the competitive landscape and our ability to compete, and macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions, among others.
