|---|
The Registrant has a separately designated standing audit committee of its Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”), which is currently comprised of the following members of the Registrant’s Board of Directors: Mary Lou Maher (Chair), Jan R. Hauser, Jay K. Kunkel and Peter Sklar.
The Registrant’s Board of Directors has determined that each of Ms. Maher, Ms. Hauser, Mr. Kunkel and Mr. Sklar, is an “audit committee financial expert” and that each member of the Audit Committee is “independent” and “financially literate”, as such terms are defined in the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange and Exchange Act Rule 10A-3.
| 8. | CODE OF ETHICS |
|---|
The Registrant has adopted a code of ethics that applies to all of its employees, including its Chief Executive Officer, its Chief Financial Officer, its Controller and other persons performing similar functions. The full text of such code of ethics is available on the Registrant’s website at www.magna.com under the Company – ESG – Leadership & Governance section.
| 9. | CORPORATE GOVERNANCE |
|---|
As a “foreign private issuer” listed on The New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”), the Registrant is required to disclose the significant ways in which its corporate governance practices differ from those to be followed by U.S. domestic issuers under the NYSE listing standards. There is only one significant difference between the Registrant’s corporate governance practices and those required of U.S. domestic companies under NYSE listing standards. NYSE listing standards require shareholder approval of all “equity compensation plans” and material revisions to these types of plans (with limited exceptions). The rules of the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) require shareholder approval of “security-based compensation arrangements,” which are plans that involve newly issued shares, or specified amendments to such plans. The Registrant follows the TSX rules and has previously obtained shareholder approval for the following security-based compensation arrangements:
| • | Treasury Performance Stock Unit Plan approved by shareholders on May 3, 2022; |
|---|---|
| • | Amended and Restated 2009 Stock Option Plan approved by shareholders on May 6, 2010; and |
| --- | --- |
| • | 2025 Incentive Stock Option Plan approved by the shareholders on May 8, 2025. |
| --- | --- |
The Registrant also has three equity compensation arrangements which involve the purchase of its common shares in the secondary trading market at market prices:
| • | Performance Stock Unit Plan approved by the Registrant’s Board of Directors on August 7, 2018; |
|---|---|
| • | Restricted Stock Unit arrangements; and |
| --- | --- |
| • | Amended and Restated Non-Employee Director Share-Based Compensation Plan approved by the Registrant’s Board of Directors on November 8, 2017. |
| --- | --- |
The rules of the TSX do not require shareholder approval for these equity compensation arrangements and accordingly the Registrant has not sought shareholder approval of any of the foregoing plans.
| 10. | PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES |
|---|
The table below shows the fees for professional services rendered by our principal accountant, Deloitte, for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
| Fiscal 2025 | Fiscal 2024 | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Type of Services | Fees($) | % of Total | Fees($) | % of Total |
| Audit Fees^1^ | 12,452,000 | 55% | 12,263,000 | 60% |
| Audit-Related Fees | 8,127,000 | 36% | 6,786,000 | 34% |
| Tax Fees | 1,657,000 | 7% | 1,114,000 | 6% |
| All Other Fees | 602,000 | 2% | 10,000 | <1% |
| Total | 22,838,000 | 100.00% | 20,173,000 | 100.00% |
| ^1^ | The 2024 and 2025 audit fees represent total fees related to the respective audits. The 2024 audit fee has been restated to reflect additional billings that were agreed upon after year-end. | |||
| --- | --- |
The services comprising the “Audit Fees” category for each of the last two fiscal years were performed by Deloitte to comply with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), including integrated audit of the consolidated financial statements and quarterly reviews. In some cases, fees in this category may include an appropriate allocation of fees for tax services or accounting consultations, to the extent such services were necessary to comply with the standards of the PCAOB. This category includes fees incurred in connection with the audit of our internal control over financial reporting for purposes of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
The services comprising the “Audit-Related Fees” category consists of fees paid in respect of assurance and related services, including such things as due diligence relating to mergers and acquisitions, accounting consultations and audits in connection with acquisitions, services related to statutory audits of certain foreign subsidiaries, attest services that are not required by statute or regulation and consultation concerning financial accounting and reporting standards. Audit-related services actually provided by Deloitte in each of fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024 consisted of: services related to statutory audits of certain foreign subsidiaries, assurance services and procedures related to attest engagements not required by statute or regulation, due diligence and other assurance services.
The services comprising the “Tax Fees” category consists of all fees paid in respect of tax compliance, planning and advisory services performed by Deloitte’s tax professionals, except those services required in order to comply with the standards of the PCAOB which are included under “Audit Services”. The tax services actually provided by Deloitte in each of fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024 consisted of: domestic and international tax advisory, compliance and research services, as well as transfer pricing advisory services.
The category “All Other Fees” captures fees in respect of all permitted services not falling under any of the previous categories.
In order to protect Deloitte’s independence, the Audit Committee has a process for pre-approving all services provided by, and related fees to be paid to, Deloitte. This process includes reviewing, on a quarterly basis, the details and associated costs of the services expected to be provided by Deloitte. Audit Committee approval is required for any services that have not previously been approved by the Audit Committee. In assessing the impact of any proposed services on auditor independence, the Audit Committee considers whether:
| • | the services are consistent with applicable auditor independence rules; |
|---|---|
| • | the independent auditor is best positioned to provide the most effective and efficient service, for reasons such as its familiarity with the Registrant’s business, people, culture, accounting systems and risk profile; and |
| --- | --- |
| • | the services enhance the Registrant’s ability to manage or control risks and improve audit quality. |
| --- | --- |
None of the services provided by Deloitte in 2025 were treated as exempt from pre-approval pursuant to the de minimis provision of paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.
| 11. | TABULAR DISCLOSURE OF CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS |

Each Division is a separate profit centre under the authority of a general manager, who has the discretion to determine rates of pay, hours of work, and sources of supply, within the framework of our<br>Employee’s Charter, our Global Labour Standards Policy, and our Operational Principles (each as described below and available on our website at www.magna.com), as well as our corporate policies. |

Operating Group management is responsible for overseeing<br>the Divisions within its product area(s), including approval of Divisional business plans and preparation of Operating Group business plans for presentation to Executive Management. Our Operating Groups are aligned under four reporting segments<br>overseen by members of Executive Management to enable the Operating Groups to: take advantage of cross-Group synergies; share research and development and best practices; and embrace technological trends that impact our business and our customers.<br> |
| --- | --- |

Core Values
Magna’s culture is grounded in core values that guide how we conduct business and make decisions. Our core values are the cornerstone of our organization, driving our commitment to our employees and enabling us to deliver exceptional value to all our stakeholders. Our values of “Think Big”, “Never Settle”, “Be Collaborative”, and “Take Responsibility” guide our actions, decisions and interactions, fostering a culture of integrity and excellence.
Operational Excellence
We believe Magna’s operational excellence mindset fosters a culture of solid execution, continuous improvement, and accountability. We take an innovative, team-driven approach to refining processes and systems, aimed at delivering value to our customers and stakeholders. Our people-first approach helps drive innovation and craftsmanship, creating a safe, respectful, and rewarding workplace. Linked to our Magna Factory Concept (“MAFACT”) assessment system (detailed in “Description of the Business — Manufacturing, Sustainability & Engineering — Operational Excellence” in this AIF), these principles help enable consistent measurement and improvement, resulting in reduced waste, enhanced efficiency, and quality products. By integrating advanced manufacturing technologies and Factory of the Future initiatives, we are shaping a smarter, more sustainable future for mobility.
Incentive-Based Management Compensation
We maintain an incentive-based compensation system for management, which directly links short-term incentive compensation to the operational performance of an applicable business unit. In the case of our Divisions and Operating Groups, the short-term incentive formula is based on Divisional or Operating Group EBIT, after taking into account a funds employed charge. For our Executive Management, the short-term incentive is linked to Magna’s Adjusted EBIT and Free Cash Flow. Members of our Operating Group management and Executive Management also receive performance-conditioned equity-based incentives. Our approach to executive compensation is described in further detail in the sections of our Circular titled “Compensation and Performance Report” and “Compensation Discussion & Analysis”.
Our Industry
General
The global automotive sector is rapidly evolving in response to societal, mobility-related, and economic trends, including the transition to a lower carbon economy, which has led to a shift from internal combustion to electric propulsion in some markets. These trends are detailed in “Our Business & Strategy — Industry Trends”. Tier 1 automotive suppliers (“Tier 1 Suppliers”) design, engineer and manufacture components, assemblies, systems, subsystems, and modules for original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs” or “automobile manufacturers”) of vehicles and light trucks. Tier 1 Suppliers source subcomponents from Tier 2 suppliers and other sub-suppliers, which are integrated into the products sold by Tier 1 Suppliers directly to OEMs.
The global automotive industry is cyclical and is sensitive to a broad range of macroeconomic, political, and other trends as discussed in “Our Business & Strategy” in this AIF. Throughout 2025, the automotive industry continued to experience a number of macroeconomic and industry challenges, including:
| • | reduced vehicle production volumes, including in certain key markets; |
|---|---|
| • | continuing trade protectionism; and |
| --- | --- |
| • | consumer uncertainty related to electric vehicles (“EV”) including in connection with EV range, charging<br>infrastructure, electricity pricing, and availability of government rebates. |
| --- | --- |
See “Our Business & Strategy — Macroeconomic, Political and Other Trends” and “Industry Trends” for details of how these trends affect Magna and the automotive industry. See also “Industry Trends” in our Management’s Discussion & Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Position for the year ended December 31, 2025 (“MD&A”).

Automotive Production Markets
OEMs have historically built their vehicles in the regions where those vehicles are primarily sold and, as a result, many OEMs have established manufacturing facilities in multiple countries. Some China-based, EV-focused OEMs have recently established manufacturing plants in Europe. While this has occurred in part due to trade and tariff policies, we see the trend towards localization of manufacturing to meet changing and volatile demand continuing on a global basis. See “Description of the Business — Manufacturing, Sustainability & Engineering” of this AIF for details of Magna’s global manufacturing footprint.
China, Europe, North America, Japan, India, and South Korea represent the largest automotive production markets in the world, accounting for approximately 90% of vehicles produced globally.^(1)^ China’s approximate 35% share of global production led all countries in 2025, followed by the United States and Japan, with 11% and 9% shares, respectively.^(1)^

Competition
In spite of high barriers to entry in many product areas, as well as the high capital intensity of the global Tier 1 automotive supply industry, competition is fierce from many different sources. For most of our Operating Groups, competition comes primarily from automobile manufacturers and from other “traditional” Tier 1 Suppliers, including ones in which one or more automobile manufacturers may have direct or indirect investments. With the importance of electrification and electronics in the automotive value chain, a number of established electronics and semiconductor chip companies have also entered or expanded their presence in the automotive industry, becoming direct competitors to Tier 1 Suppliers, including us. Additionally, disruptive technology innovators are changing the competitive landscape of the automotive industry through the development of high-value product and service offerings, particularly in areas related to vehicle electrification, vehicle autonomy, and connectivity, which traditional automotive suppliers may not be able to match. As a result of these trends, some suppliers seek to enhance their competitive positioning by entering into strategic partnerships, joint ventures, or collaborations with technology and software companies.
2026 Annual Information Form | 7
The basis on which automobile manufacturers select automotive suppliers for particular programs is determined by a number of factors, which may include, among other factors: price; overall relationship, including historical performance with respect to innovation, quality/warranty, launch execution, and timeliness of delivery; manufacturing footprint; proprietary technologies; financial strength; ability to test and validate new technologies for application in the automotive industry; scope of in-house engineering and tooling capabilities; carbon footprint and alignment with the customer’s sustainability/ESG goals and targets; and existing agreements.
The number of competitors that are asked by automobile manufacturers to bid on any individual product has been reduced in many cases. We expect further reductions as a result of the increasing preference of automobile manufacturers to deal with fewer suppliers and reward those suppliers with earlier and deeper involvement.

Our Business & Strategy
Business Drivers
Our business and operating results are dependent on light vehicle production by our customers in three key regions — North America, Europe, and China. Ordinarily, OEM vehicle production levels are aligned with vehicle sales levels and thus affected by changes in such levels. More recently, the automotive industry has faced headwinds, including lower vehicle production volumes in some of our key markets, along with macroeconomic, geopolitical, trade/tariff and other risks. While we supply systems and components to many OEMs globally, we do not supply systems and components for every vehicle, nor is the value of our content consistent from one vehicle to the next. As a result, customer and program mix relative to market trends, as well as the value of our content on specific vehicle production programs, are important drivers of our performance.

Our Corporate Strategy
Magna operates in a rapidly evolving, highly competitive, cyclical, lean, global manufacturing industry. To drive long-term success, we are focused on the following key areas:
| Product Portfolio | Magna’s approach to product involves viewing our portfolio through the lens of a long-term owner. As a starting point for this approach, each of<br>our businesses must:<br> <br><br><br>•<br><br>operate in<br>meaningful or growing markets with significant profit opportunities;<br><br><br><br><br>•<br><br>have strong market<br>positioning and profitable growth, or a path toward both; and<br> <br><br><br>•<br><br>possess sustainable<br>competitive advantages.<br> <br><br> <br>These requirements for our product portfolio have already<br>delivered scale and market leading positioning across a number of different businesses and markets. For example, our portfolio reflects:<br><br><br><br><br>•<br><br>global leadership<br>in body and chassis, all-wheel drive/four wheel-drive, transmissions, latches, mirrors and contract vehicle assembly;<br><br><br><br><br>•<br><br>top five global<br>positioning in ADAS;<br> <br><br><br>•<br><br>North American<br>leadership in exteriors and top three market positioning in seating; and<br><br><br><br><br>•<br><br>top five European<br>market positioning in both exteriors and seating.<br> <br><br> <br>Employing strategic portfolio<br>management, we seek to achieve strong performance in leading markets. |
|---|---|
| Practically, this involves managing all our businesses for continuous improvement, while deploying capital investments to<br>areas that are most aligned with our long-term portfolio priorities.<br> <br><br> <br>One such priority has been<br>to focus on businesses that can deliver profitable growth while remaining agnostic to the vehicle’s method of propulsion.<br> <br><br><br><br>However, we believe that electrification provides growth opportunities, even though the pace of adoption may not be linear. As the proportion of vehicles on our roads<br>transitions from ICE to EV, Magna is strategically positioned to increase the content and value we can deliver to our customers. | |
| --- | --- |
| Customer Strategy | Although we supply products and systems to every major vehicle manufacturer, the majority of our sales are currently to six<br>OEM customers. While continuing to support these customers, we have increased focus and strengthened relationships with a number of other OEM customers across the globe to diversify sales. In the case of OEMs which do not traditionally outsource<br>business outside their established supplier networks, we seek strategic growth opportunities based on standard criteria.<br> <br><br><br><br>Given the rapid evolution of the automotive industry, we continue to regularly assess the alignment between our strategy and our OEM customers, leveraging our cross-group<br>activity both to identify and pursue strategic business awards, as well as to assess and strengthen risk mitigation. |
| Operational<br><br><br>Excellence | As a manufacturer of highly engineered automotive products, we are committed to continuous improvement and operational<br>excellence. Our approach to operational excellence is based on three elements:<br><br><br><br><br>•<br><br>Executing on the<br>Fundamentals — reinforcing solid execution with respect to program launches, product quality and warranty management;<br><br><br><br><br>•<br><br>Improving our Most<br>Impactful Divisions — focusing attention on long-term margin transformation for operating divisions with the highest impact to Magna overall; and<br><br><br><br><br>•<br><br>Leveraging our<br>Smart Factory initiatives — new manufacturing processes developed from our Factory of the Future initiatives and our MAFACT operating system are distilled into use cases which are scaled across Operating Groups to leverage common<br>opportunities. |
| Capital Allocation | A disciplined and balanced approach to capital allocation is a foundational principle. This broad principle is distilled down to three fundamental<br>components:<br> <br><br><br>•<br><br>Maintain a Strong<br>Balance Sheet — maintaining a strong balance sheet is critical to preserving financial flexibility and solid investment-grade credit ratings.<br><br><br><br><br>•<br><br>Invest and Manage<br>for Profitable Growth — we are focused on accretive investments to support long-term Free Cash Flow generation. This primarily consists of organic (investments in our business), but may include inorganic (M&A) opportunities that provide<br>advantageous product capabilities, customer diversification or geographic footprint in areas where we require additional capacity. We are willing to exit businesses that are not aligned with our geographic footprint, business requirements, and<br>product portfolio strategy, and have |

| done so in recent years, including through the sale of certain exteriors business units in Germany (2021), seating operations in Brazil (2021), a powertrain business in France (2023), our<br>former divisions in Russia (2023), and a body and chassis business in India (2024). Overall, we aim to maintain a sustainable competitive advantage through innovation, cutting edge technology and manufacturing, and use our investments to support<br>achievement of this objective.<br> <br><br><br>•<br><br>Return Capital to<br>Shareholders — we believe in providing a competitive dividend to shareholders. Dividends are supplemented by additional returns of capital through share repurchases, which we fund with excess liquidity. | |
|---|---|
| People and Talent | We are committed to an operating philosophy based on fairness and concern for people. This philosophy is part of a culture in which employees and<br>management share the responsibility to help enable our success. Our Employee’s Charter sets out this philosophy through the following fundamental principles:<br><br><br><br><br>•<br><br>job<br>security;<br> <br><br><br>•<br><br>safe and healthful<br>workplace;<br> <br><br><br>•<br><br>fair<br>treatment;<br> <br><br><br>•<br><br>competitive wages<br>and benefits;<br> <br><br><br>•<br><br>employee equity and<br>profit participation;<br> <br><br><br>•<br><br>communication and<br>information; and<br> <br><br><br>•<br><br>an employee<br>hotline. |

Risk Factors
The industry in which we compete and the business we conduct are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. Our short and medium-term operational success, as well as our ability to create long-term value through our corporate strategy, are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. These risks and uncertainties, together with a number of assumptions, underlie the forward-looking statements made in this AIF. In order to fully understand these risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, you should carefully consider the following risk factors in addition to other information included in this AIF:
Macroeconomic, Geopolitical and OtherRisks
| • | Geopolitical Crises and Military Conflicts: Geopolitical crises and/or military conflicts (including in<br>Ukraine/Russia and the Middle East/Persian Gulf) could create a number of risks, including: disruption to the supply of and/or increased costs of steel, aluminum, resin, and energy supplies (particularly natural gas and oil), shipping/transportation<br>and logistics, vehicle production, and/or supply chains; weakening economic growth and consumer confidence; increasing inflation; increasing physical or cybersecurity threats; and/or worsening other risks described elsewhere in this AIF, such as<br>with respect to commodity prices, relative foreign exchange rates, and risks of doing business in foreign markets. An expansion or worsening of existing geopolitical crises or military conflicts, or the occurrence of significant new geopolitical<br>crises or military conflicts, could have a material adverse effect on our business and operations. |
|---|---|
| • | Threats to Free Trade Agreements: Historical growth in the automotive industry has been aided by the free movement of<br>goods, services, people and capital through bilateral and regional trade agreements, particularly in North America pursuant to the North American Free Trade Agreement (1994 – 2020) and the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (2020 –<br>Present). Measures implemented by the current U.S administration, together with court challenges and judicial decisions related to these measures have created an uncertain trade environment. The overall climate of trade and tariff uncertainty<br>presents a number of challenges for the entire automotive supply chain, including: |
| --- | --- |
| – | Disruption of integrated supply chains: U.S. tariff and trade policies risk disrupting integrated global and<br>regional automotive supply chains, given the stated aim of repatriating manufacturing to the U.S. Continuing uncertainty appears to be impacting OEM and supply chain production/footprint decision-making and presents industry-wide challenges with<br>planning, forecasting and efficient capital allocation. |
| --- | --- |
| – | Input costs: U.S. tariffs, together with retaliatory measures, risk increasing our input costs, the prices paid by<br>our customers for our products, as well as the price consumers pay for vehicles. Significant or sustained unmitigated tariff cost increases which are not recovered from our customers could have a material adverse effect on our profitability.<br> |
| --- | --- |
| – | Vehicle affordability: to the extent tariffs erode vehicle affordability, consumer demand for vehicles may decline,<br>prompting a reduction in vehicle production volumes, which is a material driver of our operations, sales and profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | International Trade Disputes: International trade disputes, uncertainty and unpredictability could, among other<br>things: erode vehicle affordability reducing the demand for and production of vehicles; increase our input costs, the prices paid by our customers for our products, as well as the price consumers pay for vehicles; disrupt global supply chains;<br>distort commodity pricing; impair the ability of automotive suppliers and vehicle manufacturers to make efficient long-term investment decisions; create volatility in relative foreign exchange rates; and contribute to stock market volatility. The<br>imposition of sanctions, tariffs and/or the escalation of trade disputes which interfere with automotive supply chains could have an adverse effect on our operations, profitability and ability to effectively execute our corporate strategy.<br> |
| --- | --- |
| • | Planning and Forecasting Challenges: Macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty, together with unpredictable<br>government policy-making, including with respect to trade and tariffs, continue to present operational planning and forecasting challenges for OEMs, Tier 1 suppliers, and other automotive suppliers. In recent years, OEMs have taken actions such as:<br>unplanned shutdowns of production lines and/or plants; reductions in their vehicle production plans; and changes to their product mix. Such OEM actions can result in a number of direct and indirect consequences for automotive suppliers like<br> |
| --- | --- |
16 | 2026 Annual Information Form
| <br>Magna, including: lower sales; significant production inefficiencies resulting from our production lines being stopped/ restarted unexpectedly; and unrecoverable costs and changes, including from<br>sub-suppliers that have been adversely affected by production inefficiencies. If prolonged, the occurrence/recurrence of any such actions could have a material adverse effect on our operations, sales and<br>profitability. Additionally, planning and forecasting uncertainty could result in greater variability between market expectations and our actual financial and operating results which, in turn, could increase volatility in our stock price.<br> | |
|---|---|
| • | Interest Rates: Key consumer borrowing rates in North America and Europe remain elevated compared to levels<br>experienced prior to 2020. The availability and cost of credit are both factors affecting consumer confidence, which is a critical driver of vehicle sales and thus automotive production. A material, sustained decrease in consumer demand for vehicles<br>could result in reductions to vehicle production from levels assumed in our business plan, which could have a material adverse effect on our profitability and financial condition. Higher interest rates will also have an adverse effect on our<br>borrowing costs and, if prolonged, could have an adverse effect on our profitability. |
| --- | --- |
Risks Related to the AutomotiveIndustry
| • | Pace of EV Adoption: Although the number of EVs sold globally continues to grow, the rate of growth has moderated in<br>some markets due to consumer hesitancy related to issues such as: vehicle affordability; reduced availability of government rebates for the purchase of EVs; concerns regarding evolving battery technologies; anxiety regarding driving range;<br>inadequacy of charging infrastructure; new EV OEMs and models with little or no operating and warranty history; and rapid depreciation and deterioration in residual values for EVs. If planned production volumes for EV programs do not materialize, we<br>may not be able to recover our capital investments related to such programs, or to recover such investments within the timeframes contemplated, which could have a material adverse effect on our profitability and financial condition.<br> |
|---|---|
| • | North American EV Program Deferrals, Cancellations and Volume Reductions: Certain OEMs, primarily in North America,<br>continue updating their EV strategies by deferring or cancelling planned EV programs and/or reducing production volumes below the levels at which we previously quoted. We are pursuing commercial recoveries from our customers as a result of these<br>actions, but we may be unable to fully recover various pre-production, tooling, engineering, capital, and other costs incurred in advance of production, or unable to recover them within the timeframe<br>originally contemplated in our business plan. We may also experience production inefficiencies, including as a result of unutilized or underutilized production capacity and/or disruptions to our workforce plans at affected facilities. The deferral<br>or cancellation of EV programs, or reduction in planned production volumes, combined with the failure to secure commercial recoveries from our customers to fully offset associated costs and inefficiencies, may have a material adverse effect on our<br>profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Economic Cyclicality: Ordinarily, the global automotive industry is cyclical, with potential for regional differences<br>in the timing of expansion and contraction of economic cycles. In normal industry cycles, lower consumer confidence typically translates to lower vehicle sales and production volumes. Examples of factors which often reduce consumer confidence<br>include: worsening economic, political, and other conditions; consumer perceptions and general trends related to the job, housing, and stock markets; military conflict; increasing inflation (particularly fuel and energy prices); and rising interest<br>rates. A significant decline in vehicle production volumes from levels assumed in our business plan could have a material adverse effect on our profitability and financial condition. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Regional Production Volumes: North America, Europe and China are key automotive producing regions for us, and our<br>operating results are primarily dependent on car and light truck production by our customers in these regions. A significant or sustained decline in vehicle production volumes in any or all these geographic regions could have a material adverse<br>effect on our operations, sales, and profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Deteriorating Vehicle Affordability: Higher vehicle prices continue to create affordability challenges for consumers.<br>Factors contributing to higher vehicle prices include: costs related to advanced electronic systems, as well as components such as semiconductor and memory (DRAM) chips; elevated vehicle finance costs; increased commodity costs; changes in relative<br>foreign exchange rates; and tariffs. A material, sustained decrease in consumer demand for vehicles due to deteriorating |
| --- | --- |
2026 Annual Information Form | 17
| vehicle affordability could result in reductions to vehicle production from levels assumed in our business plan, which could have a material adverse effect on our profitability and financial condition. | |
|---|---|
| • | Intense Competition: The automotive supply industry is highly competitive. Some of our competitors have higher or<br>more rapidly growing market share than we do in certain product or geographic markets. Additionally, a number of established electronics and semiconductor chip companies have entered or expanded their presence in the automotive industry. At the same<br>time, disruptive technology innovators continue introducing novel product and service solutions which traditional automotive suppliers may not be able to match. Failure to successfully compete with existing or new competitors could affect our<br>ability to fully implement our corporate strategy. |
| --- | --- |
Strategic Risks
| • | Evolution of the Vehicle: The success of our corporate strategy is correlated to our ability to grow our business and<br>capabilities in product areas which demonstrate long-term growth. Some systems in our product portfolio are expected to decline over the long-term, including manual transmissions, mechanical all-wheel<br>drive/four-wheel drive systems, and fuel tank systems. The failure to grow our sales of higher growth products (such as ADAS) at or above the industry rates of growth for such products could have a material adverse effect on our profitability and<br>financial condition. |
|---|---|
| • | Evolving Business Risk Profile: The risk profile of our business continues to evolve due to our exposure to product<br>areas such as battery enclosures, electrified powertrains, and ADAS and electronics. As a result, we may face new or heightened risks, including: forecasting, planning and capital allocation risks due to uncertainties regarding the shift from ICE to<br>EV production volumes and unrecovered capital and engineering costs; take-rates for ADAS systems and/or features offered to consumers as optional items; reduction in demand for certain products which are unique to ICE vehicles; challenges in quoting<br>for profitable returns on products with leading-edge technologies; rigorous testing and validation requirements from OEM customers for complex new products; increased warranty and recall risks on new products and leading-edge technologies; increased<br>product liability risks; increased cybersecurity risk; increased competition in the development of leading-edge technologies; increased regulatory complexity and compliance costs; increased counterparty risk; heightened risk of technological<br>obsolescence of some of our products, processes and/or assets; and difficulties in attracting or retaining employees with critical skills in high-demand areas. Realization of one or more such risks could have a material adverse effect on our<br>operations, profitability, or financial condition. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Technology and Innovation: While we continue to invest in technology and innovation which we believe will be critical<br>to our long-term growth, the automotive industry is experiencing significant electrical, electronic, and software-driven change and disruption. Our ability to anticipate changes in technology and to successfully develop and introduce new and<br>enhanced products and/or manufacturing processes on a timely basis will be significant factors in our ability to remain competitive. Additionally, our success is dependent on our ability to attract, develop and retain employees with the required<br>technical and/or software skills. If we are unsuccessful or are less successful than our competitors in consistently developing innovative products and/or processes, we may be placed at a competitive disadvantage in bidding for new business and may<br>not be able to recover some or all our engineering, research and development costs, which could have a material adverse effect on our profitability and financial condition and ability to fully implement our corporate strategy. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Investments in Mobility and Technology Companies: In addition to our development activities, we have invested in<br>various mobility and technology companies, as well as funds that invest in such companies, and may continue to do so in the future. However, investing in such companies involves a high degree of risk, including the potential loss of some or all of<br>our investment value and/or supply continuity risks to the extent we have supply relations with them. There is currently no public market for the shares or units of some of these investments and, as a result, we may be unable to monetize such<br>investments in the future. In some cases, we may have equity in technology-driven suppliers with which we have commercial supply relations; while the value of such equity may be affected by the commercial prospects of such programs, our ability to<br>exit our investments may be impaired by the existence of our commercial supply relationship. Investments in companies or funds which are currently or subsequently become publicly traded are “marked-to-market” quarterly, which may result in us |
| --- | --- |
18 | 2026 Annual Information Form
| recording unrealized gains or losses in any given quarter. The realization of any of the foregoing investment-related risks could have an adverse effect on our profitability and financial condition. |
|---|
Customer-Related Risks
| • | Customer Concentration: Although we supply parts to all major OEMs, a significant majority of our sales are to six<br>customers: General Motors, Mercedes-Benz, Ford, BMW, Volkswagen and Stellantis. Additionally, growth rates of OEMs differ by region and segment, with significant growth by some other EV-focused OEMs in certain markets, such as China. Shifts in market share away from our top customers could have a material adverse effect on our profitability to the extent we are unable to offset such lost sales<br>with sufficient sales growth to alternative OEMs. |
|---|---|
| • | Market Shifts: While we supply parts for a wide variety of vehicles produced globally, we do not supply parts for all<br>vehicles produced, nor is the number or value of parts evenly distributed among the vehicles for which we do supply parts. Additionally, in recent years, we have experienced a concentration in content on certain EV models. Shifts in market shares<br>away from vehicles on which we have significant content, as well as vehicle segments in which our sales may be more heavily concentrated, could have a material adverse effect on our sales and profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Evolving OEM Competitive Landscape: A number of China-based OEMs (“COEMs”), including BYD, Chery, GAC,<br>Geely, Huawei, Nio, Xiaomi, and XPeng, have demonstrated significant commercial success in China in recent years and some are seeking to export vehicles to, or localize production in, Europe and other parts of the world. While we have existing<br>relationships and are targeting growth with COEMs, these relationships may not yet be as well established as those with our traditional customers. The failure to sufficiently grow our sales to those COEMs which achieve significant commercial success<br>could adversely impact our ability to execute our corporate strategy. Additionally, to the extent COEMs win market share from our traditional customers, our profitability may be adversely affected if we are unable to offset lost sales by winning<br>sufficient business with such COEMs. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Dependence on Outsourcing: We depend on outsourcing by OEMs, including the outsourcing of complete vehicle assembly<br>to our contract vehicle manufacturing business. The extent of such outsourcing is based on a number of factors, including: the cost, quality, and timeliness of outsourced production relative to in-house<br>production by an OEM; the degree of unutilized capacity at an OEM’s facilities; collective bargaining agreements and labour relations between OEMs and labour unions; impact of tariffs on OEMs’ manufacturing footprints; and other factors.<br>Currently, many OEMs have excess vehicle assembly capacity, particularly in Europe and China. Additionally, since EVs have fewer components than vehicles with internal combustion engines, some OEMs may insource production of certain components or<br>systems to maintain employment levels committed to in collective bargaining agreements and/or in connection with government incentives. A reduction in outsourcing by OEMs, or the loss of any material production or assembly programs combined with the<br>failure to secure alternative programs with sufficient volumes and margins, could have a material adverse effect on our profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Customer Cooperation and Consolidation: Competing OEMs have cooperated and collaborated in different ways to save<br>costs, including through: joint purchasing activities; platform sharing; powertrain sharing; joint R&D; and regional joint ventures. Additionally, the automotive industry has previously experienced OEM consolidation. While OEM cooperation and<br>consolidation may present opportunities, they also present a risk that we could lose future business or experience even greater pricing pressure on certain production programs, either of which could have an adverse effect on our profitability.<br> |
| --- | --- |
| • | Consumer Take Rate Shifts: Shifts in consumer preferences may impact “take rates” for certain types of<br>products we sell. Examples of such products include: all-wheel drive systems; power liftgates; active aerodynamics systems; ADAS; and complete vehicles with certain option packages or option choices. Where<br>shifts in consumer preferences result in higher “take rates” for products that we do not sell or for products we sell at a lower margin, our profitability may be adversely affected. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Nature of Customer Blanket Purchase Orders: Contracts from our customers consist of blanket purchase orders which<br>generally provide for the supply of a customer’s annual requirements rather than a specific quantity of products and can be terminated by a customer at any time. We may have various tooling, engineering, dedicated program capital, and other<br>costs |
| --- | --- |
2026 Annual Information Form | 19
| incurred in advance of production which cannot be easily recovered from our customers if a purchase order is terminated and/or if forecast production volumes fail to materialize within the timeframe contemplated in our business<br>plan. We may also experience production inefficiencies, including as a result of unutilized or underutilized production capacity and/or disruptions to our workforce plans at facilities affected by the cancellation or reduction of production volumes.<br>The failure to secure commercial recoveries from customers to offset such costs and other operating inefficiencies may have a material adverse effect on our profitability. | |
|---|---|
| • | Potential OEM Production-Related Disruptions: Any significant OEM production disruptions, including as a result of<br>labour unrest at customer or sub-supplier facilities, parts shortages or natural disasters, would lead to disruptions to our production, which could have a material adverse effect on our sales and<br>profitability. |
| --- | --- |
Supply Chain Risks
| • | Supply Chain Disruptions: OEMs and Tier 1 automotive suppliers may experience supply disruptions, constraints and/or<br>price increases on critical manufacturing inputs (including steel, aluminum, and resin, as well as semiconductor and memory (DRAM) chips), for a number of different reasons, including: competing demand from non-automotive sectors; government<br>regulation or intervention; trade and tariff disputes; geopolitical and/or military conflict; interruption of shipping or other transportation routes; natural catastrophes; labour disruptions; shortages of parts and/or materials; intellectual<br>property claims; and pandemics. Supply chain disruptions which threaten or prevent us from the timely supply of products to our customers could result in a range of potential adverse consequences, including: unrecoverable price increases; elevated,<br>unrecoverable costs such as those for premium freight or re-sourcing of supply; penalties, business interruption claims, or other commercial claims by our customers and suppliers; loss of future business; and reputational damage. The impacts of<br>prolonged supply chain disruptions or constraints could have a material adverse effect on our operations and profitability. |
|---|---|
| • | Regional Energy Supply and Pricing: Regional energy supplies have from time to time been disrupted due to<br>geopolitical and military conflict, supply/demand imbalances, government regulation, severe weather events, and challenges related to the transition to renewable energy generation. Unforeseen supply disruptions, demand spikes, prolonged energy<br>disruptions and/or significant energy price increases (including as a result of the conflict in the Middle East/Persian Gulf) could have a material adverse effect on our operations and profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Financial Condition of Supply Base: We rely on a number of suppliers to supply us with a wide range of components<br>required in connection with our business. The financial health of automotive suppliers is impacted by a number of factors, including economic conditions and production volumes. A significant worsening of economic conditions or reduction in<br>production volumes could deteriorate the financial condition of our supply base, which could lead to, among other things: disruptions in the supply of critical components to us or our customers; and/or temporary shutdowns of our production line(s)<br>or the production line(s) of our customers. The occurrence of any such factors could have a material adverse effect on our profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Supplier Claims: Input cost increases, shortfalls in vehicle production volumes, program deferrals or cancellations,<br>intellectual property claims, tariff costs, and other factors could give rise to commercial or legal cost recovery claims against us by our suppliers, which could have an adverse effect on our profitability. |
| --- | --- |
Manufacturing/Operational Risks
| • | Product Launch: The launch of production is a complex process, the success of which depends on a wide range of<br>factors, including: the timing and frequency of design changes by our customers relative to the start of production; product maturity and complexity; production readiness of our own, as well as our customers’ and suppliers’ manufacturing<br>facilities; robustness of manufacturing and validation processes; launch volumes; quality and production readiness of tooling and equipment; sufficiency of skilled employees; and initial product quality. Failure by us to successfully launch a new<br>product or complete vehicle could result in commercial or litigation claims against us which could have a material adverse effect on our profitability. Additionally, a significant product or program launch failure could adversely affect our<br>reputation, future business prospects with one or more customers, and/or ability to execute our corporate strategy. |
|---|
20 | 2026 Annual Information Form
| • | Operational Underperformance: From time to time, we may have operating divisions which are not performing at expected<br>levels of profitability. The size and complexity of automotive manufacturing operations often makes it difficult to achieve a quick turnaround of underperforming divisions. Significant or prolonged underperformance at any of our operating divisions<br>could have a material adverse effect on our profitability and operations. |
|---|---|
| • | Restructuring Costs: We may sell some product lines and/or downsize, close, or sell some of our operating divisions.<br>By taking such actions, we may incur restructuring, downsizing and/or other significant non-recurring costs. These costs may be higher in some countries than others and could have a material adverse effect on<br>our profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Impairments: We have recorded significant impairment charges related to equity interests in joint ventures, goodwill,<br>and long-lived assets in the past and may do so again in the future. The occurrence of any of a number of potential scenarios could result in indicators of impairment, including: the early termination, loss, renegotiation of the terms of, or delay<br>in the implementation of, any significant production contract; the technological obsolescence of any of our products or production assets; production volumes that are lower than expected; and the insolvency of a customer. In conducting our<br>impairment analysis, we make forward-looking assumptions regarding: the impact of turnaround plans on underperforming operations; new business opportunities; program price and cost assumptions on current and future business; the timing and success<br>of new program launches; and forecast production volumes. To the extent such forward-looking assumptions are not met, any resulting impairment loss could have a material adverse effect on our profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Skilled Labour Attraction/Retention: Our business is based on successfully attracting, developing, and retaining<br>employees at all levels of the company from “shop-floor” to Executive Management. The markets for highly skilled workers, as well as talented professionals and leaders in our industry are extremely competitive, particularly in the major<br>global automotive and technology centres in which many of our operations are located. The inability to meet our needs for skilled workers and talented professionals and leaders, whether through recruitment or internal training, development<br>activities, and retention could impact our ability to profitably conduct business and/or effectively implement our corporate strategy. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Leadership Expertise and Succession: Effective succession planning programs and practices are critical elements of<br>our overall talent management strategy. While we believe that our leadership development and succession programs have been effective in facilitating leadership transitions to date, our ability to profitably conduct business and/or successfully<br>implement our corporate strategy could be impacted by the failure to: identify, train, develop and support high-performing leaders; ensure effective knowledge transfers from transitioning leaders to successors; and/or otherwise promote<br>organizational robustness and resilience through leadership transitions in critical roles. |
| --- | --- |
Pricing Risks
| • | Quote/Pricing Assumptions: The time between award of new production business and start of production typically ranges<br>between two and four years. Since product pricing is typically determined at the time of award, we are subject to significant pricing risk due to changes in input costs, tariff costs, variance in production volumes, and other quote assumptions from<br>the time of award through the start of production. The inability to quote effectively, or the occurrence of a material change in input costs, tariff costs, production volumes or other quote assumptions between program award and production, could<br>have a material adverse effect on our profitability. |
|---|---|
| • | Customer Pricing Pressure/Contractual Arrangements: We face ongoing pricing pressure from OEMs, including through:<br>quoting pre-requirements; long-term supply agreements with mutually agreed price reductions over the life of the agreement; non-contractual annual price concession<br>demands; pressure to absorb costs related to product design, engineering and tooling, and/or amortize such costs through the piece price for the product; pressure to assume incremental warranty costs; and OEM refusal to fully offset inflationary<br>price increases and/or tariff costs. OEMs possess significant leverage over their suppliers due to their purchasing power and the highly competitive nature of the automotive supply industry. As a result of the broad portfolio of parts we supply to<br>our largest OEM customers, such customers may be able to exert greater leverage over us as compared to our competitors. We attempt to offset price concessions and costs in a number of ways, including through commercial negotiations with our<br>customers, improved operating efficiencies and cost reduction efforts. |
| --- | --- |
2026 Annual Information Form | 21
| Our inability to fully offset and/or fully recover any such incremental costs over the life of production, could have a<br>material adverse effect on our profitability. Moreover, while we attempt to negotiate contractual terms with our suppliers that align with the contractual terms between us and our OEM customers, we may not always be successful in doing so. Any such<br>gaps between our customer and supplier contract terms could, in certain circumstances, have an adverse effect on our profitability. | |
|---|---|
| • | Commodity Price Volatility: Prices for certain key raw materials and commodities used in our parts, including steel,<br>aluminum, resin, and energy can be volatile. In some cases, our risk is mitigated because we purchase steel, aluminum, and to a more limited extent, resin under customer resale programs. Where such commodity purchases are not made under customer<br>resale programs, we seek to offset commodity price increases by: passing such increases to our customers; engineering products with reduced commodity content; implementing hedging strategies; or otherwise. To the extent we are unable to offset<br>commodity price increases, such additional commodity costs could have an adverse effect on our profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Scrap Steel/Aluminum Price Volatility: Some of our manufacturing facilities generate a significant amount of<br>engineered scrap steel and/or aluminum in their manufacturing processes but recover some of the value through the sale of such scrap. Scrap steel and scrap aluminum prices can also be volatile and do not necessarily move in the same direction as<br>steel or aluminum prices. Declines in scrap steel/aluminum prices from time to time could have an adverse effect on our profitability. |
| --- | --- |
Warranty/Recall Risks
| • | Repair/Replacement Costs: We are responsible for the repair and replacement costs associated with any defective<br>products that we supply to our customers. Certain of our products, such as transmissions and battery enclosures, typically have a higher unit and labour service cost in the event of replacement. Other products, such as cameras, radars, and side door<br>latches, are supplied in multiple units for a single vehicle, which could result in significant cost in the event all such products need to be replaced. OEMs and/or government regulators can initiate recalls of safety or regulated products, which<br>could place us at risk for the administrative costs of the recall, in addition to the repair/replacement costs of defective products, even in situations where we dispute the need for a recall or the responsibility for any alleged defect. For<br>example, refer to the claim disclosed in “Legal Proceedings” in this AIF. The obligation to repair or replace defective products could have a material adverse effect on our operations and profitability. To the extent such obligation<br>arises as a result of a product recall, we may face reputational damage, and the combination of administrative and repair/replacement costs could have a material adverse effect on our profitability. |
|---|---|
| • | Warranty Provisions: In certain circumstances, we are at risk for warranty, product liability and recall costs. We<br>are currently experiencing increased customer pressure to assume greater warranty responsibility. Certain customers seek to impose partial responsibility for warranty costs where the underlying root cause of a product or system failure cannot be<br>determined, or where the root cause is disputed, as in the case of the claim disclosed in “Legal Proceedings” in this AIF. Warranty provisions for our products are based on our best estimate of the amounts necessary to settle existing or<br>probable claims related to product defects. Warranty claims which exceed warranty provisions could have a material adverse effect on our profitability. In addition, warranty provisions for our powertrain systems, electronics and complete vehicle<br>programs are also established based on our or our customers’ warranty experience with the applicable type of product and, in some cases, the terms in the applicable customer agreements. Actual warranty experience which results in costs that<br>exceed our warranty provisions, could have a material adverse effect on our profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Product Liability: We cannot guarantee that the design, engineering, testing, validation, and manufacturing measures<br>we employ to ensure high-quality products will be completely effective, particularly as electronic content and product complexity increases and/or as we enter newer product areas such as eDrives or ADAS. If our products fail to perform as expected<br>or as required by governmental regulations, and/or to the extent any such failure results in, or is alleged to result in, bodily injury and/or property damage or other losses, our customers or government regulators may initiate a product recall of<br>such products and/or third party product liability claims may be brought against us, as is the case in the claim disclosed in this AIF under “Legal Proceedings”. The defense of product liability claims, particularly class action claims<br>in North America, may be costly and judgments against us could impair our reputation and have a material adverse effect on our profitability. |

IT Security/Cybersecurity Risks
| • | IT/Cybersecurity Breach: Although we have established and continue to enhance security controls intended to protect<br>our IT systems and infrastructure, there is no guarantee that such security measures will be effective in preventing unauthorized physical access or cyber-attacks. A significant breach of our IT systems could: result in theft of funds; cause<br>disruptions in our manufacturing operations; lead to the loss, destruction, or inappropriate use of sensitive data, including employees’ personal data; or result in theft of our, our customers’ or our suppliers’ intellectual<br>property or confidential information. The occurrence of any of the foregoing could adversely affect our operations and/or reputation and could lead to claims against us that could have a material adverse effect on our profitability.<br> |
|---|---|
| • | Product Cybersecurity: The risk of vehicle cyber-attacks has risen with the proliferation of technology designed to<br>connect vehicles to external networks. Although vehicle and systems-level cybersecurity controls and protections are typically managed and/or specified by our OEM customers, we cannot provide assurance that such controls and protections will be<br>effective in preventing cyber intrusion through one of our products. Furthermore, an OEM customer may still seek to hold us financially responsible, even where the OEM specified the cybersecurity controls and protections. Any such cyber intrusion<br>could cause reputational damage and lead to claims against us that have an adverse effect on our profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Risks Related to the Use of Artificial Intelligence: We use, and expect to increasingly rely on, artificial<br>intelligence (“AI”) and machine learning technologies in our operations, which expose us to risks, including those relating to data quality, model accuracy, system reliability, potential biases, cybersecurity, and/or privacy compliance.<br>The rapid pace of AI development and the evolving regulatory landscape may create uncertainty, increase compliance costs, constrain our use of AI technologies, or result in investigations, enforcement actions, or litigation. The AI systems we deploy<br>may require significant investment, specialized expertise, and ongoing monitoring to remain effective, and may introduce additional operational, contractual, and intellectual property risks. Failure to effectively implement, govern, or oversee AI<br>technologies, or the occurrence of errors, misuse, or disruptions involving AI systems, could adversely affect our business, operations, and reputation. In addition, failure to timely realize planned efficiencies from the use of AI technologies<br>could adversely affect our profitability. |
| --- | --- |
Acquisition Risks
| • | Inherent Merger and Acquisition Risks: Acquisitions are subject to a range of inherent risks, including the<br>assumption of incremental regulatory/compliance, pricing, supply chain, commodities, labour relations, litigation, environmental, pensions, warranty, recall, IT, tax, or other risks. While due diligence on an acquisition target is intended to<br>mitigate such risks, these efforts may not always prove to be sufficient in identifying all risks and liabilities related to the acquisition, including as a result of: limited access to information; time constraints for conducting due diligence;<br>inability to access target company facilities and/or personnel; or other limitations in the due diligence process. Additionally, we may identify risks and liabilities that we are not able to sufficiently mitigate through appropriate contractual<br>indemnities or other protections. The realization of any such risks could have a material adverse effect on our profitability. |
|---|---|
| • | Acquisition Integration and Synergies: We may not be able to successfully integrate or achieve anticipated synergies<br>from our acquisitions and/or such acquisitions may be dilutive in the short to medium term. Either of these outcomes could have a material adverse effect on our profitability. |
| --- | --- |
Other Business Risks
| • | Joint Ventures: We conduct certain of our operations through joint ventures with contractual arrangements under which<br>we share management responsibilities with our joint venture partner(s). Joint venture operations carry a range of risks, including those relating to: failure of our joint venture partner(s) to satisfy contractual obligations; potential conflicts<br>between us and our joint venture partner(s); strategic objectives of joint venture partners that may differ from our own; potential delays in decision-making; a limited ability to implement some or all of our policies, practices and controls, or to<br>control legal and regulatory compliance, within the joint venture(s); and other risks inherent to non-wholly owned operations. The likelihood of such occurrences and their potential effect on us varies<br>depending on the joint venture arrangement, however, the occurrence of any such risks could have an adverse effect on our operations, profitability, and reputation. |
|---|
2026 Annual Information Form | 23
| • | Intellectual Property: We own intellectual property that is important to our business and product portfolio. Our<br>intellectual property is an important factor in protecting our innovation activities and maintaining our competitive advantage. From time to time, our intellectual property rights may be challenged, including through the assertion of intellectual<br>property infringement claims which could result in us: being prevented from producing and selling certain products; having to license the infringed product/technology; and/or incurring monetary damages. The foregoing consequences could have an<br>adverse effect on our sales, profitability, and ability to fully implement our corporate strategy. |
|---|---|
| • | Risks of Doing Business in Foreign Markets: Conducting business in markets outside our traditional markets of North<br>America and Europe carries a number of potential risks, including those relating to: political, civil and economic instability and uncertainty; military conflict; corruption risks; high inflation and our ability to recover inflation-related cost<br>increases; trade, customs and tax risks; potential sanctions and export control risk; expropriation risks; currency exchange rates; currency controls; limitations on the repatriation of funds; insufficient infrastructure; competition to attract and<br>retain qualified employees; and other risks associated with conducting business internationally. The likelihood of such occurrences and their potential effect on us vary from country to country and are unpredictable, however, the occurrence of any<br>such risks could have an adverse effect on our operations, profitability, and financial condition. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Pension Risks: Some of our current and former employees in Canada, the United States and Germany participate in<br>defined benefit pension plans. Although such plans in North America have been closed to new participants, existing participants in Canada continue to accrue benefits. Our defined benefit pension plans in Germany are not funded and plans in Canada<br>and the United States may not be fully funded. Our pension funding obligations in North America could increase significantly due to a reduction in plan funding status caused by a variety of factors, including: weak performance of capital markets;<br>declining interest rates; failure to achieve sufficient investment returns; investment risks inherent in the investment portfolios of the plans; and other factors. A significant increase in our pension funding obligations could have an adverse<br>effect on our profitability and financial condition. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Tax Risks: At any given time, we may face tax exposures arising out of changes in tax or transfer pricing laws<br>(including changes to the enforcement or interpretation of existing laws), adverse court rulings, tax reassessments or otherwise. To the extent we cannot implement measures to offset these exposures, they may have an adverse effect on our<br>profitability. We have incurred losses in some countries which we may not be able to fully or partially offset against income we have earned in those countries. In some cases, we may not be able to utilize these losses at all if we cannot generate<br>profits in those countries and/or if we have ceased conducting business in those countries altogether. Our inability to utilize tax losses could adversely affect our profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Relative Foreign Exchange Rates: Our profitability is affected by movements of our U.S. dollar reporting currency<br>against the Canadian dollar, the euro, the Chinese renminbi, and other currencies in which we generate revenues and incur expenses. Significant long-term fluctuations in relative currency values, in particular a significant change in the relative<br>values of the U.S. dollar, Canadian dollar, euro, or Chinese renminbi, could have an adverse effect on our profitability and financial condition, and any sustained change in such relative currency values could adversely impact our competitiveness in<br>certain geographic regions. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Returns on Capital Investments: In recent years, we have invested significant amounts of money in our business<br>through capital expenditures to support new facilities, expansion of existing facilities, purchases of production equipment, acquisitions, |
| --- | --- |
| electrification, and the car of the future. Returns achieved on such investments in the past are not necessarily indicative of the returns we may achieve on future investments, and our inability to achieve returns on future<br>investments which equal or exceed returns on past investments could have a material adverse effect on our level of profitability. | |
| --- | |
| • | Financial Flexibility: The occurrence of an economic shock not contemplated in our business plan, a rapid<br>deterioration of conditions or a prolonged recession could result in the depletion of our cash resources, which could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial condition. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Credit Ratings Changes: There is no assurance that any credit rating currently assigned to us will remain in effect<br>for any period of time or that any rating will not be revised or withdrawn entirely by a rating agency in the future. A downgrade in the |
| --- | --- |
24 | 2026 Annual Information Form
| <br>credit ratings assigned to us or our industry by one or more agencies could increase our cost of borrowing or impact our ability to negotiate loans, which could have an adverse effect on our<br>profitability, financial condition, and the trading price of our Common Shares. | |
|---|---|
| • | Stock Price Fluctuation: Trading prices of our Common Shares cannot be predicted and may fluctuate significantly due<br>to a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Changes to Dividends: Our Board of Directors (“Board”) may in certain circumstances determine that it is<br>in the best interests of the company to reduce or suspend our dividend. In such event, the trading price of our Common Shares may be materially affected. |
| --- | --- |
Legal, Regulatory and Other Risks
| • | Legal and Regulatory Proceedings: From time to time, we may become involved in regulatory proceedings, or become<br>liable for legal, contractual, and other claims by various parties, including customers, suppliers, former employees, class action plaintiffs and others. Depending on the nature or duration of any potential proceedings or claims, we may incur<br>substantial costs and expenses, be required to devote significant management time and resources to the matters and suffer reputational damage. On an ongoing basis, we attempt to assess the likelihood of any adverse judgments or outcomes to these<br>proceedings or claims, although it is difficult to predict final outcomes with any degree of certainty. Except as disclosed in the “Legal Proceedings” section of this AIF, and from time to time in our consolidated financial statements<br>and/or our MD&A, we do not believe that any of the proceedings or claims to which we are currently a party will have a material adverse effect on our profitability; however, we cannot provide any assurance to this effect. |
|---|---|
| • | Changes in Laws: A significant change in the current regulatory environment in our principal markets, including<br>changes in laws or the enforcement or interpretation of existing laws, the imposition of tariffs and trade barriers, stricter regulatory approaches to CO2 emissions, employment and labour<br>standards, software and data privacy, artificial intelligence governance, sourcing of electrical components, and access to rare earth minerals, and other laws which impose additional costs on automotive manufacturers or consumers, could have an<br>adverse effect on our profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Environmental Compliance: While we regularly attempt to estimate environmental<br>clean-up liabilities, such an exercise is complex. In addition, environmental laws and regulations are complex, change frequently and have tended to become more stringent and expensive over time. In certain<br>circumstances, we could be named as a Potentially Responsible Party (“PRP”) with respect to a contaminated site. Costs associated with being a PRP could be material depending on site conditions and the number of participating PRPs. As a<br>result, we may incur material costs or liabilities significantly in excess of amounts we have reserved, which could have an adverse effect on our operations, profitability, financial condition, or reputation. |

Customer Management Offices
We have a globally structured sales, engineering, and marketing team spread across multiple global locations where our customers maintain engineering, commercial, and/or manufacturing facilities. The various internal operating divisions and subsidiaries of the automobile manufacturers normally initiate many of their own purchasing decisions. As a result, an automobile manufacturer may effectively constitute multiple customers.
Purchase Orders
Our sales are generated through customer requests to quote on particular products, as well as the tools and dies required to produce parts. Purchase orders for our products are typically for one or more models, and typically extend over the life of each model, which is generally four to seven years. However, purchase orders issued by our automobile manufacturer customers typically do not require them to purchase any minimum number of our products. Releases under such purchase orders, which authorize us to supply specific quantities of products, are issued for planning, raw material, and production purposes, which is typically over a one to four month period in advance of anticipated delivery dates. The actual number of products that we supply under purchase orders in any given year is dependent upon the number of vehicles produced by the automobile manufacturers of the specific models in which those products are incorporated.
It has been our experience that once we receive purchase orders for products for a particular vehicle model or program, we will usually continue to supply those products until the end of that model or program; although most of our customers’ purchase orders allow them to terminate the purchase order for convenience. In addition, as part of our purchase contracts, we are generally required to supply service parts for up to 15 years after the end of production of any model, provided that we are the contracted supplier at the time production ceases. Automobile manufacturers could cease sourcing their production requirements from us for a number of reasons, including if we refuse to accept demands for price reductions or other concessions, and/or if the vehicle is not meeting their sales targets. Should the latter occur, we are still required to provide service parts for up to 15 years, although we may be able to negotiate that this be supplied as a one-time up front purchase.

Manufacturing, Sustainability & Engineering
Operational Excellence
We are committed to performing with efficiency, speed, and quality, aimed at delivering value to our stakeholders. To measure and enhance performance, we utilize the Magna Factory Concept or “MAFACT” assessment process that focuses on critical elements of operational excellence in accordance with our Operational Principles. This system enables us to track progress, identify opportunities, and implement consistent improvements across our operations.
Sustainability
We are committed to being a responsible corporate citizen that conducts business in a manner that balances profits, people and planet. Magna accepts the reality of climate change and the importance of addressing sustainability in our operations. To this end, we are committed to decarbonization of our operations and have committed to near-term (by 2030) and net-zero (by 2050) science-based targets with respect to Scopes 1, 2 and 3 GHG emissions. In support of these targets, we have achieved 100% renewable electricity usage in our European operations, and are committed to achieving 100% renewable electricity usage by 2028 in our Canadian operations, and by 2030 globally. For a full description of our sustainability strategy, initiatives, targets, and achievements to date, see “Appendix 1 — Sustainability Report”.
Factory of the Future Initiatives
We continue to look at ways to integrate leading edge manufacturing trends into our operations, including data analytics, as well as AI capabilities designed to, among other things: increase information available to human operators to enhance decision making; automate certain processes to increase efficiency and safety; optimize material and process flows; and perform predictive maintenance on equipment. Specifically, a number of our global facilities have implemented a combination of new technological applications, software, and processes in order to benefit from more efficient and effective factory solutions, which is known as our Factory of the Future (“FoF”) approach. Supporting these initiatives are investments in underlying foundational “Industry 4.0” connectivity infrastructure, which is the integration of digital and automated technologies into manufacturing to improve efficiency, quality, and real-time decision-making. Magna has made significant progress in establishing common data collection, pipeline, governance structure, and analytics building blocks that support efficient adoption of FoF solutions at scale. Through 2025, our Smart Factory Solutions Marketplace enables Divisions globally to identify and plan to implement proven solutions. Hundreds of implementations from 30 standard solution types have been implemented, and even more have been identified for future implementation. A few examples of our FoF activities are set out below.

Facilities
As at December 31, 2025, we had the following manufacturing and PDE&S facilities in each designated geographic region:
Our manufacturing and PDE&S facilities occupied approximately 81.6 million and 4.2 million square feet, respectively. These facilities were broken down between third party leases, and those owned by us as set out below. At this time, the largest percentage of properties leased (by square footage) from any single landlord is approximately 14%.
28 | 2026 Annual Information Form
Our facility leases typically have terms of at least five years with one or more options to renew. Among other terms, our leases typically require us to return the facilities to the condition in which we received them at start of the lease (reasonable wear and tear excepted). From time to time, the cost of doing so may be significant due to such factors as the length of the lease period, the nature of the manufacturing operations, the extent of modifications made to the leased properties over the term of the lease, and other factors.
We are also subject to environmental laws and regulations both as tenant and owner of our properties. Our leases with third party landlords generally provide that we must maintain the leased properties in accordance with all applicable laws, including environmental laws. Magna routinely conducts Phase 1 Environmental Assessments, and if necessary Phase 2 Site Investigations, at manufacturing, assembly, and warehousing locations prior to or at the start of occupancy to identify any actual and potential pre-existing environmental concerns at leased or owned sites. Magna is responsible for addressing certain environmental impacts arising at our properties, including exacerbations of existing impacts as defined by lease terms or regulatory requirements. Our leases with third party landlords generally also contain indemnities in favour of the landlord with respect to environmental matters and those indemnities may survive the termination of the leases.
Key Components and Raw Materials
Our key purchased components include: stampings, electronics, semiconductor chips, molded parts, die casting, forging, coverstock, and wire harnesses. Our key purchased raw materials are steel, resin, and aluminum. While we endeavour to purchase the majority of these components and raw materials from regional suppliers located where we do business, factors such as price, quality, transportation costs, warehousing costs, duties, tariffs, availability of supply, timeliness of delivery, and customer requirements have an impact on the decision to source from certain suppliers. In some cases, we are directed by our OEM customers to source components or commodities from specific suppliers, as is largely the case for leather we purchase for use in the automotive seats we produce. We also purchase some key components and raw materials offshore when shortages occur, or when we choose to source one supplier for a global program. Prices for our raw materials used in our production of parts, like steel, resin, aluminum, natural gas, and electricity continue to be volatile.
Approximately two-thirds of our combined steel and aluminum is acquired through resale programs operated by OEMs and the balance is generally acquired through annual or six-month contracts that fluctuate with market indices. Such resale programs involve the purchase by us of steel or aluminum on fixed pricing and other terms negotiated by our applicable OEM customer with steel and aluminum suppliers. Since pricing is fixed, we are not exposed to steel and aluminum price volatility for purchases under the resale program, thus helping to manage our production costs. Certain of our operations generate steel and aluminum scrap, which we typically sell at prices that fluctuate with published market indices. Most of our resin purchases fluctuate directly with market indices, although we do participate in some customer resale programs on approximately one quarter of our resin purchases. In some cases, our customers direct us to buy certain other raw materials from specified suppliers, at specified prices. Consistent with lean manufacturing principles, we do not typically carry inventories of key raw materials or finished products significantly in excess of those reasonably required to meet production and shipping schedules.

Innovation and Research & Development
Focus on Innovation and Technology
We continue to invest significant resources to develop and commercialize innovative technologies, which help us maintain our competitive advantage in the industry and provide differentiated value to our customers. We expect that our involvement with automobile manufacturers and manufacturing technology partners in the development of innovative product and process technologies will increase as such manufacturers and partners further involve suppliers like us in the overall vehicle concept, development, and manufacturing process.
Our Research and Development Process
Our research and development (“R&D”) activities take place at our Division/Operating Group level and at the corporate level. Our Divisional/Operating Groups work with our customers to identify product and technology gaps. Magna’s Corporate R&D team, under the global direction of our Senior Vice President, Corporate R&D, analyzes the key megatrends that are expected to drive future mobility and automotive development. As part of these efforts, our Corporate R&D team engages with the advanced engineering and product development teams of our current and potential OEM customers to understand their product strategies and better align our own product strategy and technology development with customer needs.
All of our R&D projects follow an Innovation Development Process (IDP) — a multi-stage process aimed at turning ideas into innovations that can ultimately be commercialized and scaled. The initial phase of the process is designed to foster the generation of ideas and includes, among other things: identification of key customer (internal or external) needs; identification of potential technologies and industrial or academic partners; understanding of and analysis of societal, digital, demographic, regulatory, industry, and other trends which may create demand for and thus drive development of new automotive and mobility technologies; review of academic research; collecting and screening ideas submitted through innovation programs; review of emerging technologies in non-automotive industries; and automotive customer input.
Concepts that progress past this initial stage are further evaluated, including with respect to fit with our strategy. Selected innovations then progress through subsequent stages towards product or process realization, validation, and eventually, product launch.
Our R&D initiatives are supported by, and involve close collaboration with, our Corporate R&D group. Our Division/Operating Group R&D teams work together with our Corporate R&D group on technology development, and where necessary, specific working groups are established to discuss and develop technological solutions.
As a result of our innovation activities, we have developed a number of product, process and materials innovations, some of which are described later in this Section under “Innovations and Innovation Awards”.
As a key part of our own innovation efforts and to gain further access to innovative thinking outside of our company, we also partner with start-ups and early stage companies, inventors, entrepreneurs, universities, technical institutions, and the venture capital community to help bring innovative ideas to market. We also look for innovative ideas from other industries and apply them to mobility—a process we call “auto-qualifying”. As part of our continuing efforts to develop innovative solutions to the technology challenges of new mobility and the automotive industry, we are continuously evaluating potential innovations, many of which have led to active projects. Such projects include: novel sensor and software technologies supporting ADAS features; efficiency and performance technologies related to electric drives and power electronics; and artificial intelligence solutions enabling generative engineering tools, advanced robotics, inspection systems, digital twin/simulation, and data analytics technologies supporting our strategic focus on operational excellence.

Intellectual Property
We own and use numerous patents, trademarks, and other intellectual property in connection with our operations. In addition, certain of our Operating Groups license their technology to third parties on a limited basis. We also license and use patents owned by others. From time to time, claims of intellectual property infringement are made by us or against us. At present, we believe that the outcome of any pending claim, whether positive or negative, will not have a material adverse effect on us. While in the aggregate our intellectual property and licenses are considered important in the operation of our business, we do not consider them of such importance that the expiry of any one patent or license would materially affect our business. See “Risk Factors — Intellectual Property” in this AIF for a discussion of risks related to our intellectual property.
Innovations & Industry Recognition
We believe that innovation has been the foundation of Magna’s success and an important factor in our competitiveness. Some examples of recent innovations are as follows:
Innovations
| AI-ENABLED ADVANCEMENTS IN ADAS AND AUTONOMOUS DRIVING<br><br><br><br> <br>Magna is collaborating with NVIDIA to integrate the next-generation NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Thor system-on-a-chip into future advanced driver assistance and autonomous driving solutions. The platform consolidates significant<br>computing capability to support L2+ through L4 systems, interior sensing, and cabin-AI applications.

While traditional door carriers use glass-fiber-reinforced polypropylene (GFPP), a material that delivers strong mechanical performance but carries a high<br>environmental footprint. Magna’s alternative replaces conventional GFPP with a combination of natural and plant-based fibers, including flax, hemp, basalt, and bamboo, reinforced with a plant-based polyurethane spray. This approach enables a<br>lighter, lower-emissions structure while maintaining structural integrity and durability. Early development results show the potential for up to 65% lower CO2 emissions and a 40% weight reduction compared to conventional GFPP door carriers. In<br>parallel, Magna’s embedded mesh inlay design has delivered up to 400% improvement in impact resistance, demonstrating that sustainability gains can be achieved alongside enhanced performance. The sustainability benefits extend beyond<br>materials. Magna’s low-tonnage, single-stage molding process replaces traditional high-tonnage injection molding, reducing energy consumption by up to 50% and enabling simpler, more cost-efficient<br>tooling. |
| ADVANCING OCCUPANT MONITORING SAFETY THROUGH INTERIOR SENSING<br><br><br><br> <br>Magna continues to advance vehicle safety through its integrated interior sensing systems, which<br>monitor occupants and driver behavior in real time to support safer, more responsive mobility. Combining interior cameras and radar, the system detects driver attentiveness, seat occupancy, seatbelt use, vital signs and environmental conditions,<br>helping prevent accidents while maintaining a positive driving experience. A key feature is Child Presence Detection (CPD), designed to identify unattended children and reduce heat-related risks for vulnerable passengers. Over the past 18 months,<br>the technology has been awarded or entered production on five OEM programs across North America, Europe and Asia, reflecting increasing industry adoption as safety regulations and rating requirements evolve. By delivering scalable, regulatory-ready<br>solutions, Magna is helping set new benchmarks for occupant protection and intelligent vehicle safety. |

Capital Structure Approach
We aim to maintain the company’s financial flexibility in order to remain in a position to advance our strategy through industry cycles and withstand a downturn, including by:
| • | Maintaining a strong balance sheet: Maintaining a strong balance sheet is critical to preserving financial flexibility and<br>solid investment-grade credit ratings. |
|---|---|
| • | Investing and managing for profitable growth: We are focused on accretive investments to support long-term Free Cash Flow<br>generation. This consists of organic (investments in our business) and inorganic (M&A) opportunities that provide advantageous product capabilities, customer diversification, and/or geographic footprint in areas where we require additional<br>capacity. We are willing to exit businesses that are not aligned with our product portfolio strategy and have done so in recent years. Overall, we aim to maintain a sustainable competitive advantage through innovation, cutting edge technology, and<br>manufacturing, and we use our investments to support the achievement of this objective. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Returning capital to shareholders: We believe in providing a competitive dividend to shareholders. Dividends are<br>supplemented by additional returns of capital through share repurchases, which we fund with excess liquidity. |
| --- | --- |
In light of the above strategy, we have made significant levels of investment in our business in recent years and have also returned significant amounts of capital to our shareholders in the form of dividends and share repurchases. We had a Credit Rating Adjusted Debt^(1)^ ratio of 1.59 times Adjusted EBITDA^(1)^ at the end of 2025. We expect to be within our target range of 1.0 – 1.5 times for Credit Rating Adjusted Debt to Adjusted EBITDA in 2026.
Note:
| ^1^ | Credit Rating Adjusted Debt is calculated by taking our long- and short-term debt and operating lease liabilities and adding pension obligations and certain other Moody’s Investor Services’ adjustments.<br>Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by taking our Adjusted Earnings before Interest and Taxes and adding back Depreciation, operating lease expense, and interest income, and adding adjustments relating to the cash portion of Other Expense, net and pension<br>obligation expenses. In each case, such adjustments reflect a methodology for calculating such ratios used by Moody’s Investor Services. |

Our Board may, without the approval of any of our shareholders, fix the number of shares in, and determine the attributes of, an individual series of Preference Shares and issue shares of such series from time to time. The shares of each such series will be entitled to a preference over our Common Shares, but will rank equally with the Preference Shares of every other series with respect to the payment of dividends and in the distribution of all our property and assets available for distribution in the event of our liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up, whether voluntary or involuntary, or any other distribution of assets among our shareholders for the purpose of winding-up our affairs. No Preference Shares have been issued or are outstanding and we do not currently anticipate issuing any such shares. In the event we do issue Preference Shares in the future, we would expect to issue them solely for legitimate financing purposes and not to block a change of control transaction.
Amendments to Share Provisions and Other Matters
The provisions attaching to our Preference Shares, to a series of our Preference Shares, and to our Common Shares may not be deleted or varied without the approval of the holders of the class or series concerned. In addition, no shares of a class ranking prior to or on a parity with our Preference Shares, or our Common Shares, may be created without the approval of the holders of the class or each series of the class concerned. Any approval required to be given must be given by two-thirds of the votes cast by those present or voting at a meeting of the holders of the class or series concerned duly called for that purpose, in addition to any other consent or approval required by law.
Dividends
The following table sets forth the cash dividends paid and payable on our Common Shares in respect of each quarter for the last three years.

44 | 2026 Annual Information Form
We intend to continue paying a quarterly dividend from our cash flow from operations, with the aim of regularly increasing the dividend consistent with our practice since 2010. Magna’s quarterly dividend has increased for sixteen consecutive years. The declaration and payment of dividends, including the dividend rate, is reviewed quarterly by our Board and is subject to the Board’s discretion taking into account our earnings, cash flow, financial condition, and other factors they consider relevant. See “Risk Factors” in this AIF.
Dividend Reinvestment Plan
Since 1994, we have maintained a dividend reinvestment plan in which registered shareholders have the option to purchase additional Common Shares by investing the cash dividends paid on their shares.

The Global Credit Facility includes a $150 million Mexican tranche and a tranche for Canada, U.S., and Europe, which is fully transferable between jurisdictions and can be drawn in U.S. dollars, Canadian dollars, or euros. As at December 31, 2025, no amounts were outstanding under the Global Credit Facility.
We also maintain an $800 million, 364-day syndicated revolving credit facility that expires on June 24, 2026, and can be drawn in U.S. dollars or Canadian dollars. As at December 31, 2025, no amounts were outstanding under the 364-day facility.
During 2025, we also maintained a syndicated term loan credit facility (the “Term Loan”) with a 3-year tranche of US$100 million, a 5-year tranche of US$300 million, and 3-year delayed-draw tranche of US$650 million (which was reduced to US$350 million in July 2025). As at December 31, 2025, we fully repaid any amounts outstanding under the Term Loan. The Term Loan expired on January 12, 2026.
2026 Annual Information Form | 45
Commercial Paper Programs
We maintain a euro-commercial paper program (the “ECP Program”) and a U.S. commercial paper program (the “USCP Program”), each backstopped by our Global Credit Facility. Under the ECP Program, one of our indirect wholly owned subsidiaries may, from time to time, issue euro-commercial paper notes, subject to an aggregate maximum of €1 billion or its equivalent in alternative currencies (increased from €500 million in September 2024). Under the USCP Program, we may, from time to time, issue commercial paper notes, subject to an aggregate maximum of $2 billion or its equivalent in alternative currencies (increased from $1 billion in March 2023). As at December 31, 2025, we had no outstanding issues under the ECP Program and the USCP Program.
Normal Course Issuer Bid / Share Repurchase Program
On November 5, 2025, the TSX accepted our Notice of Intention to establish a new Normal Course Issuer Bid relating to the purchase of up to 25,300,000 Magna Common Shares (the “2026 NCIB”), representing approximately 10% of our “public float” of Common Shares. The primary purposes of the 2026 NCIB are purchases for cancellation and purchases to fund our stock-based compensation awards or programs. The 2026 NCIB commenced on November 7, 2025 and will terminate no later than November 6, 2026.
Purchases of Common Shares under the 2026 NCIB as of the date of this AIF have been made by our designated broker on the TSX, in accordance with the rules and policies of the TSX; on the NYSE, in compliance with Rule 10b-18 under the U.S. SecuritiesExchange Act of 1934; and on other published markets, as permitted under the 2026 NCIB. Purchases under the 2026 NCIB have been made at the prevailing market price at the time of purchase.
As at March 16, 2026, we have purchased the following Common Shares pursuant to the 2026 NCIB, and pursuant to our prior NCIB, which commenced on November 7, 2024 and terminated on November 6, 2025 (the “2025 NCIB”), for the purposes described below:
| 2026 NCIB | 2025 NCIB | |
|---|---|---|
| Shares purchased for cancellation | 6,750,837 | 6,408,537 |
| Shares purchased and retained for stock-based compensation awards or programs and/or deferred profit sharing plans | 220,460 | 135,270 |
| Total | 6,971,297 | 6,543,807 |
Ratings
As of the date of this AIF, we have been assigned the ratings^(1)^ in the table below:
| Credit Rating Agency | Issuer<br><br><br>Rating | Senior Debt<br><br><br>Rating | Short-Term<br><br><br>Debt Rating | Outlook/<br><br><br>Trend |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dominion Bond Rating Service (DBRS)^(2)^ | A (low) | A (low) | R-1 (low) | Stable |
| Moody’s Investor Services (Moody’s)^(3)^ | A3 | A3 | P-2 | Negative |
| Standard & Poor’s (S&P)^(4)^ | A– | A– | A-2 | Negative |
Notes:
| ^1^ | Credit ratings are intended to provide investors with an independent measure of the credit quality of debt and securities.<br>The credit ratings assigned to us or our senior debt by the rating agencies are not recommendations to purchase, hold or sell our debt or securities, since such ratings do not address market price or suitability for a particular investor. There is<br>no assurance that any rating will remain in effect for any given period of time or that any rating will not be revised or withdrawn entirely by a rating agency in the future, if in its judgment, circumstances warrant. See “Risk Factors —<br>Credit Ratings Changes” in this AIF. We have made payments in the ordinary course to the rating agencies listed above in connection with the assignment of ratings on our securities. In addition, we made payments to Moody’s and S&P in<br>connection with the confirmation of our ratings in respect of the issuance of our Senior Notes and continued issuances under our ECP Program and USCP Program. |

46 | 2026 Annual Information Form
| ^2^ | DBRS’s issuer and senior debt ratings are based on its long-term rating scale that ranges from “AAA” to<br>“D” which represents the range from an issuer with the highest credit quality to one that has filed under bankruptcy, insolvency or winding up legislation or failed to satisfy an obligation after exhausting grace periods. A rating in the<br>“A” rating category is in the third highest category of the relevant scale of eight major categories and is considered by DBRS to be of good credit quality, with substantial capacity for payment of financial obligations.<br>“High” and “low” grades are used to indicate the relative standing of credit within a particular rating category. The absence of one of these designations indicates a rating which is in the middle of the category, excluding<br>the AAA and D categories for which the “high”, “middle” or “low” designations are not used. The DBRS rating trends provide guidance in respect of DBRS’ opinion regarding the outlook for the rating in<br>question, with rating trends falling into one of three categories — “Positive”, “Stable” or “Negative”. The rating trend indicates the direction in which DBRS considers the rating is headed should present<br>tendencies continue, or in some cases, unless challenges are addressed. A “Positive” or “Negative” does not necessarily indicate a rating change is imminent, but rather the trend represents an indication that there is a<br>greater likelihood that the rating could change in the future versus if a “Stable” trend was assigned. DBRS’s short-term debt rating is based on its commercial paper and short-term debt rating scale that ranges from “R-1 (high)” to “D” which represents the range from an issuer with the highest credit quality to one that has filed under bankruptcy, insolvency or winding up legislation or failed to satisfy<br>an obligation after exhausting grace periods. A rating in the “R-1 (low)” category represents the third highest category of the relevant scale of ten major categories and is considered by DBRS to<br>be of good credit quality, with substantial capacity for payment of financial obligations. |
|---|---|
| ^3^ | Moody’s senior unsecured issuer rating is an opinion as to our future relative creditworthiness. The credit rating<br>is based on a rating scale that, for global automotive suppliers, ranges from “Aaa” to “C”, which represents the range from those obligations with minimal credit risk to those obligations that are in default with little<br>prospect of recovery. Issuers in the “A” rating category are in the third highest category of the relevant scale of nine major categories and are considered by Moody’s to be subject to low credit risk. The determination of the<br>overall rating assigned to a global automotive supplier is based on an assessment of an issuer’s performance in five broad weighted categories, some of which are further broken down into a number of weighted<br>sub-factors each of which maps to a specific letter rating in the range above. The indicated rating category for each sub-factor (i.e., Aaa, Aa, etc.) is then converted<br>into a numeric value, which is then multiplied by the weight for that sub-factor with the results then totaled to produce a composite weighted-factor score, that is itself then mapped back to an alphanumeric<br>rating based on the ratings range from Aaa to C. Moody’s appends the numerical modifiers 1, 2, or 3 to each generic rating classification from Aa through Caa. The modifiers 1, 2 and 3 indicate that the obligation ranks in the higher end, mid-range, or lower end of its generic rating category, respectively. The Moody’s rating outlook is an opinion regarding the likely direction of an issuer’s rating over the medium term, and fall into one<br>of four categories: Positive, Negative, Stable or Developing. |
| --- | --- |
| ^4^ | S&P’s issuer credit rating is a current opinion of our overall financial capacity (i.e. credit worthiness) to<br>pay our financial obligations in full and on time. This credit rating is based on a rating scale that ranges from “AAA” to “D”, which represents the range from extremely strong capacity to meet financial obligations to a<br>failure to pay one or more financial obligations when it came due. An issuer with a long-term issuer rating in the “A” rating category is in the third highest category of the relevant scale of ten major categories and is considered by<br>S&P to have a strong capacity to meet its financial commitments but is somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than issuers in higher-rated categories. The ratings from<br>“AA” to “CCC” may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (–) sign to show relative standing within the major rating categories. The lack of one of these designations indicates a rating that is in the middle<br>of the category. The S&P rating outlook assesses the potential direction of a credit rating over the intermediate term (typically six months to two years) but is not necessarily a precursor to a rating change. |

50 | 2026 Annual Information Form
Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we may become involved in regulatory proceedings, or become liable for legal, contractual and other claims by various parties, including customers, suppliers, former employees, class action plaintiffs, and others. On an ongoing basis, we attempt to assess the likelihood of any adverse judgments or outcomes to these proceedings or claims, together with potential ranges of probable costs and losses. A determination of the provision required, if any, for these contingencies is made after analysis of each individual issue. The required provision may change in the future due to new developments in each matter or changes in approach, such as a change in settlement strategy in dealing with these matters.
Warranty, Product Liability and Recall Claims
In certain circumstances, we are at risk for warranty, product liability and recall claims, and are currently experiencing increased customer pressure to assume greater warranty responsibility. Certain customers seek to impose partial responsibility for warranty costs where the underlying root cause of product or system failure cannot be determined. Due to the nature of the costs, we make our best estimate of the expected future costs, however, the ultimate amount of such costs could be materially different. For most types of products, we only account for existing or probable claims on product defect issues when amounts related to such issues are probable and reasonably estimable. However, for certain complete vehicle assembly, powertrain systems, and electronics contracts, we record an estimate of future warranty-related costs based on the terms of the specific customer agreements and/or our warranty experience. Product liability and recall provisions are established based on our best estimate of the amounts necessary to settle existing claims, which typically take into account: the number of units that may be returned; the cost of the product being replaced; labour to remove and replace the defective part; and the customer’s administrative costs relating to the recall. In making this estimate, judgment is also required as to the ultimate negotiated sharing of the cost between us, the customer, and, in some cases, a supplier. Where applicable, insurance recoveries related to such provisions are also recorded.
In December 2023, we received a notification letter from Ford informing us as to its initial determination that one of Magna’s Operating Groups bore responsibility for costs totaling $352 million related to two product recalls. The notification letter triggered negotiations regarding financial allocation of the total costs for the two recalls. During the fourth quarter of 2025, Magna reached a commercial resolution with respect to this matter, which resulted in a payment to Ford of $132 million.
In the third quarter of 2025, Ford initiated recalls covering approximately 3.8 million vehicles equipped with rearview cameras or image processing modules supplied by us. Ford also announced a new 15-year extended warranty program for up to approximately 14.9 million vehicles also equipped with rearview cameras supplied by us. Ford is claiming approximately $288 million in costs related to these recalls and warranty claims. Additional recalls and/or extended warranty programs remain possible. Magna is in technical and commercial discussions with Ford, however, at this time, root cause determinations have not been made and/or confirmed for the vehicles covered by Ford’s recalls and warranty extension program. Even after root cause(s) have been determined, other challenges make it difficult to fully quantify our potential financial exposure, if any. These challenges include: integration with other vehicle systems and non-camera components; age of affected vehicles; duration of the original warranty; number of affected vehicles brought to Ford’s dealers for inspection; and dealer discretion to determine the nature of the remedy to be applied, which may range from software upgrades, inspection of the rearview camera and other components, repairs, or replacement of the rearview camera. In the absence of certainty as to the scope of potentially affected vehicles, the root cause(s) of the alleged product failures, and/or the related costs of service actions, we are unable to fully estimate our potential exposure, if any, for recall-related costs and the extension of product warranties by Ford to affected vehicle owners. If we are determined to be fully or partially responsible for defective rearview cameras, the related recall and extended warranty costs could be material to our profitability in the period(s) in which such costs are recognized or provided for.
As a result of the bankruptcy of Fisker, Inc., owners of Fisker Ocean SUVs have asserted claims for alleged vehicle defects and breaches of state “lemon laws” against J.P. Morgan Chase, N.A. (“Chase”), the direct financer of approximately 2,000 such vehicles in the United States. Chase has indicated that it will seek indemnification from us, as contract manufacturer, for damages and legal costs incurred with the resolution of these claims. As the particulars of these claims are all currently unknown, it is too early to determine our potential liability, if any, at this time.

2025 Key ESG Ratings & Recognition

A-8 | 2026 Annual Information Form
Introduction
At Magna we are committed to making a difference through our products and processes, as well as continuing to demonstrate care and concern for our people and the communities in which they live.

Magna was recognized as one of Canada’s Most Responsible Companies for 2025 by Newsweek/Statista. The award recognizes select companies from among Canada’s 700 largest private and public companies across 13 industries for their commitment to the climate, social welfare and responsible governance.
Magna’s Climate Change Commitment
We recognize the reality of climate change and its impact on the planet. As a result, we are focused on doing the right things today so that our corporate interests do not come at the expense of the viability of life for the generations that follow. Although combating climate change requires a collective global response, Magna is determined to play its part in addressing this existential threat to our planet. In 2024, we received approval by the SBTi of Magna’s near-term and net-zero emission reduction targets and the verification by SBTi of Magna’s net-zero science-based target by 2050.
The details of Magna’s net-zero commitment are outlined in Section 2.1.1 of this Sustainability Report.
Approach to Sustainable Value Creation
Overall, our approach to sustainable value creation involves:
| • | designing, engineering, manufacturing and delivering innovative product solutions for our customers, which achieve shared<br>goals of reduced weight, lower fuel consumption and reduced carbon emissions; |
|---|---|
| • | optimizing and innovating our manufacturing processes for resource and input efficiency, as well as product quality;<br> |
| --- | --- |
| • | enhancing the energy efficiency of our plants and transitioning our operations to 100% renewable energy by 2030 to achieve<br>our SBT requirement to reduce scope 1 and 2 emissions by 42% from a 2021 SBT baseline; |
| --- | --- |

Report Structure & Boundary
| This Sustainability Report aims to provide our stakeholders with a better understanding of how we approach the creation of sustainable, long-term value and our management of<br>sustainability-related risks. The report has been structured to align with the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (“TCFD”) and its replacement standard the International Sustainability Standards Board<br>(“ISSB”) IFRS S1 and S2 Climate Related Disclosures Standards. We also align with the Sustainability Accounting Standards, Board’s (“SASB”) Auto Parts accounting standard, where possible; and include key disclosures<br>initially completed in 2024, and reassessed in 2025, that are aligned with the European Sustainability Reporting Standard (“ESRS”). This includes, an outline of the results of our ESRS-aligned double materiality assessment<br>(“DMA”), and disclosure of the scenarios utilized to complete qualitative and quantitative climate scenario analysis. While this report may not currently provide stakeholders with all the information sought through the ISSB, SASB, and<br>ESRS frameworks; we continue to evolve and enhance our disclosure as our collection and validation of the applicable data improves. While the ISSB and SASB Auto Parts frameworks primarily address climate-related factors, this Sustainability Report<br>aims to go beyond such items to give stakeholders a better understanding of the broad range of environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) initiatives that define our |
|---|
approach to sustainable value creation. The boundary of this disclosure reflects activities from Magna’s 2025 reporting year which is January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025 and includes all 330 operating divisions, unless otherwise indicated.
Double MaterialityAssessment
Magna has conducted a comprehensive DMA in alignment with the European Union’s (“E.U.”) Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (“CSRD”) and the ESRS. The DMA evaluates how our operations and value chain could impact people and the environment (impact materiality) and identifies sustainability issues with potentially significant financial implications for the Company (financial materiality). This process helps identify impacts, risks, and opportunities (“IROs”), and assess their materiality.

A-10 | 2026 Annual Information Form
Our DMA was led by an internal team in collaboration with a third-party consulting firm and followed four steps:
| Define the<br><br><br>Assessment Landscape | g | Initial Plan<br><br><br>Assessment | g | Assess Identified<br><br><br>Topics | g | Consolidate and<br><br><br>Validate |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ◾<br><br>The first step in the DMA was to establish a landscape of topics — a list of sustainability-related topics,<br>sub-topics and sub-sub-topics (i.e., sustainability matters) that are used to identify IROs in the subsequent stages of the<br>assessment. The universe of topics consists of ESRS matters and entity-specific topics related to Magna’s own operations, the regions in which we operate and an assessment of our upstream and downstream value chain. The output of this step was<br>identification of ESG-related topics and the corresponding actual and potential IROs, and a high-level map of our value chain. | ◾<br><br>To assess the IROs, a scoring framework that considered qualitative and quantitative criteria was established. The framework was used to assess the severity<br>and likelihood of the identified IROs.<br> <br><br><br>◾<br><br>Severity: Considers scale, scope and irremediability (When an impact is negative)<br><br><br><br><br>◾<br><br>Likelihood: Considers the odds of the impact occurring<br><br><br><br><br>◾<br><br>The initial assessment was completed by Subject Matter Experts and Leaders at the corporate level. After the initial scores were established, a stakeholder<br>engagement plan was created to engage with affected stakeholders. | ◾<br><br>The scoring methodology was used to assess the IROs statements for financial materiality, based on size and likelihood. Those that met or exceeded the<br>threshold were identified as material. Engaging with affected stakeholders is central to the materiality assessment, to help inform the identification and assessment of material IROs. Our internal project team engaged stakeholder groups to provide<br>insight and input into each ESRS and entity-specific sub-topics to refine and assess the IROs.<br><br><br><br><br>◾<br><br>Stakeholders were provided with detailed material and documentation outlining the scoring methodology prior to in person and virtual workshops.

1. Sustainability
Governance
1.1 BoardOversight
Magna’s Board of Directors is the company’s highest decision-making body, except to the extent certain rights have been reserved for shareholders under applicable law or Magna’s articles of incorporation or by-laws. As such, the Board is responsible for the overall stewardship of the company by: supervising the management of the business and affairs of Magna in accordance with the legal requirements set out in applicable company law (Business Corporations Act (Ontario)), as well as other applicable law; and, jointly with Management, seeking to create long-term shareholder value. The Board operates under a written Board Charter, in addition to applicable law, our articles of incorporation and by-laws. The Board Charter, which has been filed with securities regulatory authorities on SEDAR+ (www.sedarplus.ca), and is available in the Leadership & Governance section of Magna’s website (www.magna.com), delineates Board oversight responsibilities including with respect to a number of areas relevant to sustainability such as: corporate culture; corporate governance; strategy; risk; shareholder engagement; and fundamental corporate actions.
The Board takes an integrated and coordinated approach to oversight (including climate-related issues). This includes oversight of:
| • | the Company’s corporate culture, including its commitment to innovation/R&D, as well as its overall approach to<br>corporate governance; |
|---|---|
| • | long-term strategy, including sustainability strategy and near-term business plans; |
| --- | --- |
| • | fundamental corporate actions, including acquisitions/divestitures and capital allocation; |
| --- | --- |
| • | major corporate policies; |
| --- | --- |
| • | enterprise risk management, including sustainability risks and climate related issues; |
| --- | --- |
| • | our overall system of compensation of Executive Management, which drives desired management behaviours that are central to<br>our climate strategy, including operational efficiency. |
| --- | --- |
| • | material public disclosures (including this Sustainability Report); |
| --- | --- |
| • | preparedness of the Company to comply with emerging sustainability/ESG related legislation; and |
| --- | --- |
| • | shareholder engagement, including on sustainability/ESG topics. |
| --- | --- |
Climate-related and other sustainability issues are typically considered by the Board at least annually through the Board’s strategic planning process. Typically, Magna’s most senior corporate R&D executive identifies and analyses material trends impacting the automotive industry, including automotive and mobility trends arising from climate-related issues. Significant opportunities and risks are then addressed at the annual Board strategy meeting. Guidance, feedback and other outputs from the strategy meeting are incorporated and integrated into Operating Group business plans for the next business planning meeting. Climate and other sustainability issues may also arise before the Board in connection with its oversight of fundamental corporate actions such as review/approval of material acquisitions/divestitures, three-year business plans and capital expenditures. Additionally, the Board annually monitors our progress in reducing our carbon footprint and reviews/approves the company’s material public disclosures, such as our Annual Information Form / Annual Report on Form 40-F incorporating this Sustainability Report. The Board also reviews/approves other public disclosures such as our Fighting Against Forced Labour and Child Labour in Supply Chains Report (“Fighting Modern Slavery Report”), and reviews the Corporation’s progress in preparing for emerging sustainability reporting, most notably the CSRD.
2026 Annual Information Form | A-13
1.1.1 GNSC and TOCC Roles
The Board carries out its duties in part through standing committees composed solely of independent directors. One such committee, the Governance, Nominating and Sustainability Committee (“GNSC”), supports the Board’s oversight of the company’s approach to sustainability and climate change issues, including alignment with Magna’s overall strategy, stakeholder expectations, regulatory and voluntary frameworks, market norms and best practices. The GNSC assesses Magna’s overall approach to reducing its carbon footprint, the effectiveness of our environmental compliance program, the Company’s approach to human rights and supply chain due diligence, the continued effectiveness of the climate elements of the Company’s ESG program, as well as Magna’s actions to identify, monitor and mitigate any material risk exposures relating to such areas. The Board’s Talent Oversight and Compensation Committee (“TOCC”) also supports the Board’s sustainability oversight activities by assessing Magna’s approach to certain non-climate elements of sustainability, including its approach to advancing diversity and inclusion in our workplace, and occupational health and safety compliance, as well as Magna’s actions to identify, monitor and mitigate any material risk exposures relating to such areas.
Like the Board, each of the GNSC and TOCC maintains a written charter which outlines its specific roles and responsibilities. The GNSC and TOCC Charters have been filed on SEDAR+ and are available in the Leadership & Governance section of Magna’s website (www.magna.com). Matters under the GNSC’s responsibility include: corporate governance, sustainability, and other matters. The scope of the GNSC’s oversight role with respect to sustainability includes climate-related issues generally, as well as related elements such as environmental management and compliance. As Magna defines “sustainability” in a broad and inclusive manner to include areas that go beyond climate-related issues, the GNSC’s role also extends to matters such as supply chain sustainability. The GNSC periodically reviews Magna’s policies, practices and public disclosures relating to sustainability topics, and makes recommendations to the Board regarding such items.
During 2025, the GNSC received updates, among other things, on Magna’s enterprise risk management program, Magna’s evolving sustainability and ESG strategy, including the ESG Reporting Overview, ESG regulatory developments, ESG ratings and rankings performance, and the Fighting Modern Slavery Report.
In addition, the GNSC reviewed, provided input into, and approved the organization’s Sustainability Report and other governance- related disclosures, including Board and Committee Charters and Proxy Circular segments. The Committee also received reporting relating to Magna’s environmental compliance through the Annual Environmental Report and engaged in discussions on the future of ESG at Magna.
The TOCC’s responsibilities include: talent management and succession planning, executive and incentive compensation, employee health and safety, and other matters.
During 2025, the TOCC received updates on, among other things, Magna’s occupational health and safety program through the Annual Health & Safety Update, ongoing leadership development initiatives, and the company’s human resources and talent management strategy, including HR strategy and priorities, culture and employee engagement, and HR complaints and investigations.
1.1.2 Other Board Committees
In addition to the GNSC and TOCC, the Board maintains two other standing committees — the Audit Committee and the Technology Committee. While neither of these committees have specific sustainability responsibilities, each may have a role with respect to sustainability risks and opportunities that arise indirectly out of the committee’s primary role and responsibilities.
Magna’s Audit Committee supports the Board through its oversight of financial and audit-related matters, including financial risks and disclosures. To the extent that climate-related or other sustainability risks are or could be financially material, the Audit Committee would be involved through its consideration of the financial statement or other disclosure of the nature and scale of the risk.
A-14 | 2026 Annual Information Form
During 2025, the Audit Committee received updates on, among other things, Magna’s Ethics and Legal Compliance Program, and the annual review of the Ethics & Legal Compliance Charter.
The Technology Committee supports the Board’s oversight duties by advising it on technology trends, related opportunities and risks, R&D and innovation, and technology-focused acquisitions, as well as the alignment between the company’s technology and its strategic priorities. As such, the scope of the Technology Committee’s role includes products and processes that seek to realize opportunities created by climate-related challenges. In this regard, the Technology Committee engaged in “deep dive” reviews of technology trends, opportunities and risks, including large castings technology landscape, integrated systems, powertrain electrification trends, and autonomous mobile robot technology and market. In addition, the Technology Committee reviewed Magna’s R&D/innovation initiatives in relation to Magna’s overall strategy.
1.2 Management
Climate-related issues are part of the CEO’s responsibility. As Magna’s highest-ranking member of management, the CEO guides and directs Executive Management and Operating Group Presidents with respect to product portfolio and strategic planning, business planning, capital expenditures, innovation/R&D, manufacturing productivity and efficiency, as well as other critical areas, including the setting of, and progress in meeting, Magna’s near-term and net-zero commitments. The CEO is also the highest executive responsible for customer management, shareholder engagement/investor relations, as well as talent management. The criticality of climate sustainability to the future of the automotive industry generally means that climate-related issues are interwoven through all of the foregoing areas of the CEO’s responsibilities. At the same time, the importance of making demonstrable progress with climate sustainability goals requires CEO-level engagement and direction to drive organizational alignment.
To assist our CEO, Magna’s Chief Operating Officer functions as an executive “champion” for climate-related and other sustainability matters (the “Sustainability Champion”). The Sustainability Champion reports directly to Magna’s CEO on sustainability matters and helps coordinate and align sustainability priorities across the company’s Operating Groups. Operating Group management is responsible for development of product strategies to address, industry and other trends, and business opportunities and risks, including those which arise due to climate-related challenges.
We also have a bottom-up sustainability structure (See Magna’s Sustainability Group Organizational Structure below) with representatives at each of our three main management levels (Divisional, Operating Group and Corporate). Our minimum requirement is that all manufacturing divisions have an Energy Team that includes an Energy Champion. The divisional Energy Teams collaborate with our Global Energy Team to identify and implement high-priority energy management projects. The Global Energy Team functions across all of our Divisions and Operating Groups to share energy efficiency/management case studies and best practices. Each Operating Group’s day-to-day sustainability activities are coordinated through a Group sustainability “lead”. Operating Group sustainability leads routinely interact with our Global Director, Sustainability & Energy who oversees and tracks key sustainability metrics and KPIs, such as the energy reduction goals, as well as progress towards our near-term and net-zero commitments. The Global Director, who reports directly to the Sustainability Champion, collaborates with Operating Group sustainability leads and cross-functional corporate leaders, including operational improvement, research and development, environmental, purchasing, legal, finance, and real estate, to develop Magna’s long-term sustainability and decarbonization strategy and near-term goals. In connection with our evolving sustainability strategy and our commitment to reaching our near-term and net-zero targets, our energy reduction progress and initiatives are reported to our Sustainability Champion, helping to increase the visibility of these initiatives across our Operating Groups through the Sustainability Champion’s regular interaction with Operating Group Presidents.
A number of initiatives intended to help us achieve our near-term and net-zero targets are underway, including energy optimization initiatives at most of our operating Divisions and a phased in transition to renewable electricity globally. We previously launched new initiatives within our Operating Groups focused on Life Cycle Assessments (“LCA”), Sustainable
2026 Annual Information Form | A-15
Materials and Supply Chain Decarbonization. Each initiative is led by an Operating Group-level champion in their respective subject matter that directly supports the execution of our decarbonization strategy. LCA Champions oversee Operating Group LCA processes and requirements, including understanding frameworks governing LCAs and customer requirements. Sustainable Materials Champions assist in the development of sustainable materials sourcing plans, identify potential sustainable materials relevant to current and future products, identify and oversee participation in sustainable materials certification schemes, and support our purchasing team in communicating with OEM customers and suppliers on relevant sustainable materials topics. Supply Chain Sustainability Champions assist on all ESG related supply chain topics for their Operating Groups and support supplier ESG monitoring, including through third-party audits and, where necessary, corrective action. They will also oversee Operating Group compliance with our ESG nomination criteria (discussed in Section 3.5.1).
Magna’s Sustainability Group organizational structure is as follows:

Aspects of sustainability beyond climate change concerns are typically managed through a matrix structure in which corporate-wide functions support initiatives implemented or managed by Operating Groups and Divisions. Examples of functional areas managed in this manner include: environmental management and compliance; occupational health and safety; quality and operational improvement; talent management, including diversity and inclusion; ethics and legal compliance; lobbying and political engagement; cybersecurity; data privacy; supply chain management; and materials compliance.

2.1 Climate Action & Magna’s Net-Zero Committment
2.1.1 Science-Based Targets
As a global leader within the industry, Magna has set ambitious targets as discussed under Magna’s Climate Change Commitment on page A-9.
Magna prides itself on continuous improvement and innovation. For almost 70 years, we have showcased our commitment to design by delivering some of the most sophisticated mobility solutions; and we continue to leverage this ingenuity and entrepreneurial spirit to tackle one of our world’s most pressing challenges: climate change. Focus is needed on true decarbonization and elimination of carbon to keep global warming below 1.5 degrees according to the latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (“IPCC”) Sixth Assessment Report (2023). To meet our communities’, customers’, and stakeholder expectations, Magna has made science-based near-term and 2050 net-zero commitments.
Magna’s pursuit of net-zero begins with our near-term commitment of 42% reduction in Scopes 1 and 2 emissions, and 25% reduction in Scope 3 emissions by 2030, each from a 2021 baseline. Our near-term commitments are the launch point towards our net-zero by 2050 commitment which requires 90% reduction in Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions from a 2021 baseline, as required by the SBTi Net-Zero Standard.
2.1.2 Roadmap for Fulfilling Our Commitment
Achieving net-zero is an ambitious and complex challenge. We have taken the first step to indicate our commitment and outline our net-zero emissions strategy. We have also developed a framework through collaboration with internal and external stakeholders. By leveraging experts across all Operating Groups and Divisions to identify the most appropriate technical solutions, while monitoring emerging technologies, we will continue to progress towards our net-zero goal. Our strategy and roadmap will continue to evolve, including through our climate scenario analysis, development of a formal climate transition plan, and our growing LCA activities, as discussed in Section 2.1.4.

A-18 | 2026 Annual Information Form
We are focused on the following four pillars as we continue to evolve our net-zero roadmap:

As Magna carries out activities within each pillar, with support from Operating Groups and Divisions, our focus will continue to be on energy conservation and reduction. In the near-term, our net-zero commitment is supported by our goal of achieving 100% renewable electricity in Canada by 2028, and globally by 2030. In 2025 we met a key milestone by achieving 100% renewable electricity in Europe, including Türkiye and the UK. To support this effort, Magna’s Global Energy Leads have been integrated directly into our global sustainability organization. Each Division’s Energy Champion is critical to achieving our net-zero commitments by working to deliver emission reductions, as well as cost savings and risk minimization. Progress is already being made in our manufacturing operations which implemented approximately 249,000 MWh of energy saving projects in 2025.
2025 Emissions and EnergyPerformance
In 2025, our absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 (market based) emissions decreased by 1% and 23%, respectively. Over the last 2 years, our Divisions have implemented energy reduction projects providing over 513,000 MWh of annual energy savings. Having achieved our 100% renewable electricity goal in our European operations, approximately 39% of our global electricity procurement in 2025 was renewable and we remain on track for 100% by 2030. Our onsite renewable energy generation also increased to 81,595 MWh — a tenfold increase compared to 2023. We remain confident in achieving our SBTi near-term 2030 commitment — 42% reduction in scope 1 and 2 by 2030 — through continued energy reduction efforts combined with increases in renewable electricity usage in jurisdictions beyond Europe.
2.1.3 Climate Scenario Analysis
In 2024 we conducted detailed qualitative and quantitative Climate Scenario Analysis to identify our risks & opportunities to help manage uncertainty, test business resilience, and inform our strategy. This analysis aligns with the CSRD, and ISSB’s IFRS S2 climate-related disclosure standards. The Climate Scenario Analysis identified key climate risks and opportunities that could impact Magna’s operations and value chain and will help Magna align its climate initiatives to relevant risks and opportunities to drive sustainable growth.
The Climate Scenario Analysis involved evaluating two “storylines” or scenarios comprising both physical and transition risks:
| 1) | Net-Zero (NZE) Storyline: This represents a low emissions scenario consistent with<br>a 1.5°C rise in temperature above pre-industrial levels in 2100. In this scenario, the world has massively transformed to limit climate change. The storyline derives transition scenarios from the<br>International Energy Agency (“IEA”) and World Energy Outlook’s (“WEO”) Net-Zero by 2050 Scenario, and uses physical scenarios based on the IPCC<br>SSP1-RCP 2.6 scenario from their 6th Assessment Report. |
|---|---|
| 2) | STEPS Storyline: This represents a moderate emissions scenario where current measures continue but fall short of limiting<br>warming, and the global temperature rise is on track for 2.4°C above pre-industrial levels in 2100. In this scenario, the world makes only a moderate effort to limit climate change. The storyline is based<br>on the IEA and WEO’s IEA Stated Policies Scenario (STEPS) for transition scenarios, and on the IPCC SSP2-RCP 4.5 scenario from their 6th Assessment Report for physical scenarios. |
| --- | --- |
2026 Annual Information Form | A-19

These storylines were selected for the following reasons:
| Regulatory<br> <br>Compliance | Satisfy framework and regulatory requirements. |
|---|---|
| Industry<br> <br>Alignment | Aligned to the industry we operate in. |
| Transparency<br> <br>andRelevance | Provide transparent and relevant data, as they are based on scenarios developed by globally recognized<br>authorities. |
| Practical Future<br><br><br>Trajectories | STEPS offers a status quo based on current global environment policies, while NZE represents an ambitious outlook<br>capturing steps to achieve Net-Zero emissions by 2050. |
Going forward, we are working with key internal stakeholders to identify opportunities to integrate our climate scenario analysis into our existing risk management framework.
2.1.4 Sustainable Materials and Life Cycle Assessments
We are committed to advancing sustainability through the strategic use of sustainable materials and comprehensive LCAs. During 2025, we completed 120 LCAs and Product Carbon Footprints (“PCFs”) for our products at the request of our OEM customers with approximately 33% third-party verified. Our approach is designed to support our engineering and other departments in processing sustainable materials, setting internal targets, and meeting OEM customer requirements.
A-20 | 2026 Annual Information Form
LCAs are a growing part of our sustainability efforts, providing a comprehensive evaluation of the environmental impacts associated with all stages of a product’s life. This includes raw material extraction, manufacturing, distribution, use, and end-of-life disposal. By conducting thorough LCAs, we can identify opportunities for improvement, reduce our carbon footprint, and enhance the overall sustainability of our products.
At Magna, we are also part of the Catena-X initiative and are launching initiatives and pilot projects together with customers specifically for the Catena-X PCF use case to standardize and obtain high-quality data from our supply chain in support of our decarbonization goals to calculate a more accurate carbon footprint for our products.
Our sustainable materials strategy is built around four key pillars:
| Circular materials / Recycled<br><br><br>content in products | g | Renewable<br><br><br>Materials | g | End-of-Life<br><br><br>Recyclability | g | Products / design supporting<br><br><br>vehicle efficiency |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ◾<br><br>Increase the recycled content of the input material of top commodities in our products | ◾<br><br>Increase the use of renewable materials in our products<br><br><br><br><br>◾<br><br>Exploring renewable materials such as biomethane or bio-naphtha, bamboo in various applications | ◾<br><br>Improving product recyclability for easier dismantling at the end of the life cycle<br><br><br><br><br>◾<br><br>Increasing recyclability of other material groups like plastics, rubber, glass and textiles | ◾<br><br>Fully implemented eco-design and environmental compliance activities in our complete vehicle applications to drive fuel efficiency and overall vehicle<br>sustainability |
This strategy involves the development and implementation of a roadmap that guides our organization in making informed decisions about sustainable materials. By leveraging our collective expertise, knowledge, and innovation, we aim to accelerate the transition to a low-carbon economy.
2.1.5 Addressing Scope 3 Emissions
Magna has established near-term energy saving goals (details in Section 2.2.3) and renewable electricity goals (details in Sections 2.1.2 and 2.2.3) to address our Scope 1 and 2 emissions. For Scope 3 emissions, our near-term and net-zero targets are reductions of 25% by 2030 and reductions of 90% by 2050, respectively, taking into account all 15 emissions categories (only 12 of which are relevant to Magna). While Magna intends to work on reducing the impact in all relevant categories; there will be significant focus on category 1 (Purchased Goods and Services) and category 11 (Use of Sold Product) which account for approximately 92% of our Scope 3 emissions based on our current Scope 3 emissions inventory.
Scope 3 Category 1: Purchased Goods and Services
Magna is pursuing Scope 3 Category 11 emissions reduction as part of our broader sustainability and decarbonization strategy. Purchased goods and services represent approximately 52% of our carbon footprint; and in pursuit of our SBTi targets Magna has embedded supply chain decarbonization into our operational planning and strategic decision-making. The company has set ambitious science-based targets, verified by the SBTi, with the goal of achieving net-zero emissions by 2050. To address Scope 3 Category 11 specifically, Magna is increasing supply chain transparency, refining our approach to responsible sourcing, and launching the Energy Optimization Playbook as part of the Supplier Partnership for the Environment SP working group to engage suppliers in emission reduction efforts. These initiatives are designed to optimize resource use, enhance energy efficiency, and foster collaboration across the value chain, helping to integrate environmental stewardship into manufacturing and procurement processes.
Scope 3 Category 11: Use of Sold Products
Magna’s approach to reducing Scope 3 Category 11 emissions focuses on supporting product electrification, improving data transparency, and collaborating across the value chain. These emissions are generated during the use phase of our sold products and account for approximately 40% of our carbon footprint. The tactics used to support our approach include mapping product sales to EV, ICE, and hybrid platforms, prioritizing electrified powertrain systems, where possible, and leveraging lifecycle assessments to identify high-impact components. Magna is also implementing AI supported dashboards for emission
2026 Annual Information Form | A-21
forecasting and scenario modeling. We are also engaging suppliers to provide auditable emissions data in 2026, this will include a requirement for certain suppliers to meet ISO 14067, which requires verification. These efforts align with Magna’s commitment to achieve a 25% reduction in Scope 3 emissions by 2030 and support the decarbonization efforts across the automotive industry.

We maintain two working groups — Sustainable Materials, and Supply Chain Sustainability — that focus on supply chain decarbonization. In 2025 these cross-functional groups continued to contribute in-depth knowledge on commodities and technologies that will be instrumental in executing our net-zero strategy.
We took a number of actions to assist our suppliers in their decarbonization efforts:
Scope 3 Data Collection
We are committed to reducing carbon emissions and improving the impact of our products. These efforts cannot be achieved without the significant involvement of our supply chain. To assist our suppliers in improving their own environmental performance, we have introduced an environmental disclosure requirement for our supply base. We expect all our key suppliers to submit an Environmental Performance Disclosure. A failure to provide the disclosure could negatively impact the supplier’s rating.
A-22 | 2026 Annual Information Form
Transform: Auto Initiative
As a founding member of the Transform: Auto initiative, Magna has collaborated with OEMs across the automotive industry to support decarbonization. This initiative is designed to support the automotive sector in its transition to renewable energy and it supports Magna’s decarbonization goals, given that our supplier’s Scope 2 emissions make up a significant portion of Magna’s Scope 3 emissions.
The Transform: Auto initiative is a comprehensive program aimed at promoting renewable energy adoption and sustainability practices among automotive suppliers. The initiative focuses on several key areas, including (i) community solar projects - to provide an opportunity for suppliers to access renewable energy without the need for on-site installations; (ii) green tariff programs; (iii) utility-scale renewable energy procurement such as power purchase agreements; and increasing decarbonization education throughout the supply chain in the form of webinars, learning pathways, and courses. By engaging with suppliers and stakeholders, Magna aims to create a collaborative environment that fosters innovation and sustainable development.
2.2 Climate-Related Opportunities
2.2.1 Corporate Strategy
To drive long-term success, Magna is focused on a number of key areas as part of its corporate strategy. One strategic area critical to climate-related opportunities is Magna’s product portfolio.
Magna’s approach to product involves viewing our portfolio through the lens of a long-term owner. As a starting point for this approach, each of our businesses must meet the following requirements:

Employing strategic portfolio management, we seek to achieve strong performance in leading markets. Practically, this involves managing all our businesses for continuous improvement, while deploying capital investments to areas that are most aligned with our long-term portfolio priorities.
One such priority has been to focus on businesses that can deliver profitable growth while remaining agnostic to the vehicle’s method of propulsion.
However, we believe that electrification provides growth opportunities, even though the pace of adoption may not be linear. As the proportion of vehicles on our roads transitions from ICE to EV, Magna is strategically positioned to increase the content and value we can deliver to our customers.

2.2.2 Markets & Products
The transition to a lower-carbon economy has provided, and is expected to continue to provide, opportunities to enter new product and service markets. Some recent new products developed to take advantage of opportunities from such transition include:
| NEXT GENERATION 800V ELECTRIC DRIVE |
|---|
| Magna’s next generation 800v e-Drive solution (“e-Drive”) is a drop-in solution that<br>incorporates several advanced technologies, resulting in significant reductions in weight and size, enhanced performance, extended driving range and greater sustainability. The innovation offers enhanced flexibility due to its lightweight (75 kg)<br>design and 20% reduction in height from Magna’s prior generation e-Drive. A key technology and a supplier industry-first advancement is the ability to rotate the e-Drive 90 degrees around the drive axis, which allows improved system<br>integration in the front and rear vehicle space. Delivering peak power of 250 kW and a peak axle torque of 5,000 Nm, the system also achieves up to 93% efficiency in real-world driving (including Worldwide harmonized Light vehicles Test Cycles<br>(WLTC) and highway driving), which significantly improves efficiency across a wide range of vehicle speeds. The e-Drive system requires less aluminum and heavy rare earth materials, resulting in a significant reduction of CO2 emissions during<br>production by approximately 20% compared to previous generation e-Drives. |
| DEDICATED HYBRID DRIVE SYSTEM |
| Magna continues to accelerate hybrid innovation with its first dedicated hybrid drive system award, designed to meet the evolving needs of global automakers. This innovative system combines electric<br>motor technology with internal combustion engine efficiency, delivering a seamless transition between electric and hybrid modes. The system, which includes Magna’s DHD Duo System (a longitudinal front drive solution featuring an advanced dual e-motor and multi-speed design), offers enhanced performance, improved fuel efficiency, and reduced emissions, making it an adaptable solution for multiple vehicle platforms without the need for structural<br>modifications. By leveraging advanced engineering and design, the dedicated drive system underscores Magna’s commitment to providing scalable and flexible powertrain solutions for the hybrid market. |
2.2.3 Resource Efficiency
Energy
Our aggregate global energy spend in 2025 amounted to approximately $ 477 million broken down by type as follows:
| • | Electricity — approximately $ 394 million |
|---|---|
| • | Natural Gas — approximately $ 62 million |
| --- | --- |
| • | Other (Propane; Liquid Petrol; Diesel; District Heat; Steam; Coal Gas) — approximately $ 21 million<br> |
| --- | --- |
As part of our sustainability and operational efficiency efforts, we are focused on optimizing energy use, which may result in savings in overall energy costs. However, as we continue to forecast growth in Sales and number of facilities over the medium-term, we anticipate that our aggregate energy consumption may increase. Accordingly, we are focused on becoming more energy efficient (measured by energy consumption relative to Sales) so that, at minimum, our rate of increase in energy consumption slows.
In connection with our efforts to promote energy efficiency and to continue to make progress on our science based targets (which have a 2021 baseline year), we periodically establish short term energy reduction targets for each of our Operating Groups, as illustrated below.
In 2025 we achieved a 4% energy reduction from our 2023 operating year, marking the first milestone toward our broader science based reduction targets through 2030. We are continuing this trajectory with planned energy reductions of 7% in 2026 and 3.5% in 2027. From 2028 to 2030, we aim to sustain an annual reduction of 3%. Together, these targets demonstrate our ongoing commitment to lowering our environmental impact and driving continuous improvement in energy performance across all operations.

Our phased-in renewable energy strategy focused on Europe first (now 100% renewable electricity usage), followed by Canada, and then the other markets in which we operate. In 2025, 38.6% of our global electricity consumed was from renewable energy sources evidenced by renewable Energy Attribute Certificates (“EACs”) or from on-site generation from photovoltaic (solar panel) or solar thermal systems, where feasible. At the end of 2025, 192 of our facilities use renewable electricity in some form, with 132 such Divisions using 100% renewable electricity.
Renewable Electricity Purchases
In 2025, we purchased approximately 1,190,000 MWh of renewable electricity, an approximately 159 percent increase since 2021. In the near — and medium terms, adoption of renewable energy may increase our overall energy costs, but we are working to offset the impact of such increases through energy use reductions. Our renewable electricity efforts are bolstered by strategic partnerships, such as our agreement with Ontario Power Generation to have 100% renewable electricity in our Canadian facilities by 2028.
On-Site Renewable Electricity
We generated 81,595 MWh of on-site solar energy in 2025 — a ~53% increase compared to 2024. Our renewable energy self-generation has grown over time, however, self-generation represents a more limited opportunity for us compared to the purchase of EACs, since the vast majority of our facilities are leased, as well as other factors such as, footprint constraints for solar panels at certain owned facilities, and/or facilities in locations with relatively clean electrical grids that may make self-generation economically unfeasible.
To support the acceleration of our renewable energy transition, Magna is actively integrating renewable electricity solutions across its global Divisions, reinforcing our commitment to sustainability and operational excellence. In addition to cutting carbon emissions and air pollution, we view renewable electricity as a smart investment — lowering operational costs and leading to long-term cost savings. In 2025, we achieved 100% renewable electricity in Europe, including Türkiye and the UK. Looking ahead, we are committed to achieving 100% renewable electricity in Canada by 2028, and globally by 2030.
Energy Efficiency Activities
Nearly all of our Divisions — approximately 99% — maintain active energy teams dedicated to driving efficiency improvements. These teams work in close collaboration with our Global Energy Team, which provides strategic support through training programs, regional benchmarking sessions, newsletters, an internal collaboration platform, and best practice sharing to accelerate energy reduction initiatives.

After introducing the Global Energy Efficiency Tracker in 2024, we enabled real-time visibility into improvement activities across all sites and implemented a scoring system to drive continuous progress.
Our efforts to reduce energy consumption and operate facilities on a more energy efficient basis forms part of our formal MAFACT system — the primary operational assessment audit tool used to support our operational excellence. The MAFACT system establishes standards for achieving operational efficiencies, identifies benchmarks and promotes best practice sharing among Divisions in Magna. The integration of energy management elements into a core operational assessment tool such as MAFACT is intended to reinforce the importance of energy management throughout the organization and help realize potential cost savings. In 2025, we implemented 1,270 energy saving projects across all of our Operating Groups which saved approximately 249,000 MWh and resulted in approximately 67,144 tons of Carbon Dioxide Equivalent (“CO2e”) in annual savings using the location-based method.
Recognizing the critical role of energy optimization in achieving our net-zero targets, we created a dedicated approval category for energy efficiency and sustainability-related capital investments. In parallel, we launched the ECO50 initiative in 2024, targeting $50 million annual energy costs avoidance through energy reduction projects and on-site renewable generation. By October 2025, ECO50 successfully achieved its goal. Building on this momentum, we initiated Phase 2, aiming for an additional $50 million annual energy costs savings by the end of 2026.
To further accelerate progress, we introduced two global campaigns in 2025:
| • | Downtime Challenge: Engaging all plants to reduce energy consumption during<br>non-production hours. |
|---|---|
| • | ZERO Cost Case Study Campaign: Sharing and evaluating innovative projects from across our network that deliver measurable<br>savings without requiring monetary investment. |
| --- | --- |
Recent project highlights include:
| • | Implementation of a smart retrofit solution for compressed air leaks, saving 1.65 million kWh annually in a U.S.<br>Division. |
|---|

| • | Introduction of a tubular daylighting system in the workshop in one of our Chinese Divisions, replacing daytime LED lighting<br>with natural light. The system, combined with sensor-controlled switching, saves 14,400 kWh per year and provides uniform, glare-free illumination, improving both energy efficiency and working conditions. |
|---|---|
| • | Deployment of machine idle shutdown and monitoring alarms on injection molding machines at a Canadian Division, reducing<br>energy waste by 1,134,388 kWh per year. |
| --- | --- |
These initiatives reflect our commitment to embedding energy efficiency and sustainability into every aspect of our operations and driving continuous improvement toward our long-term goals.
2.3 Climate-Related Risks and Risk Mitigation
Magna maintains both top-down and bottom-up processes for identifying and assessing sustainability-related risks within the governance structure described in “Section 1 — Sustainability Governance” of this Sustainability Report. In order to fully understand the risks set out below, you should also carefully consider the risk factors set out in “Risk Factors” in our AIF.
2.3.1 Transition Risks and Risk Mitigation
Regulatory Policy Actions
Applicable near-term policy actions related to climate change generally fall into one of the following categories, each of which may have an indirect effect on Magna:
| • | Average Fleet Emissions or Fuel Efficiency Regulations: Governments in key auto producing regions have set<br>challenging average vehicle fleet emissions or fuel efficiency targets which OEMs must meet, including the E.U., China, Canada, and the U.S., as detailed below. We regularly monitor changes in regulation relating to emissions and fuel efficiency as<br>part of our strategic planning processes: |
|---|
European Union: E.U. regulations generally require OEMs to achieve E.U. fleet-wide average emissions of 93.6 g CO2/km for cars from 2025 to 2029 (153.9 g CO2/km for vans), and 49.5 g CO2/km (90.6 for g CO2/km vans) from 2030 – 2034, each based on the Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure (“WLTP”). As part of the E.U.’s approved “Fit for 55” legislation, the target is a 100% reduction from 2035 onwards, meaning 0g CO2/km for both cars and vans. In April 2025 the European Commission proposed a one-time flexibility measure allowing car and van manufacturers to meet 2025–2027 CO2 targets over a three-year average rather than annually. Vehicle manufacturers with an average fleet economy in excess of the target must pay an excess emissions penalty for each vehicle registered within the E.U. Penalties levied on non-compliant OEMs may be passed on to vehicle-buying consumers, which could impact demand for such vehicles and thus demand for Magna products supplied for such programs. Additionally, E.U. regulations contain incentives aimed at promoting the development of Zero- and low-emission vehicles (“ZLEVs”). The CO2 emissions targets applying to any particular OEM will be relaxed if its share of ZLEVs registered within the E.U. in any year exceeds 25% from 2025 to 2029; however, such incentives will be eliminated under the Fit for 55 legislation from 2030 onwards.
China: China has maintained stringent (China VI) emissions regulations addressing particulate emissions since 2021. In 2023, a new phase of China’s emission standards, known as China VI-B, was implemented whereby non-compliant vehicles are no longer allowed to be produced, imported, or sold in China (subject to a 6-month grace period that ended December 31, 2023). China is accelerating the development of the China VII vehicle emission standards, with the official standards expected to be released in 2026. These standards are expected to drastically reduce vehicle NOx, particulate matter, and CO2 emissions.
United States: U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) vehicle emissions standards for passenger cars and light-duty trucks with model years 2023 – 2026 would result in a fleetwide average fuel economy of approximately 40 mpg (miles
2026 Annual Information Form | A-27
per gallon) in 2026. In March 2024, the EPA issued its new emissions standards that would increase in stringency each year from model year 2027 to model year 2032. If maintained, the new standards would result in an industry-wide average target of:
| • | 85 grams/mile of CO2 for light-duty vehicles by 2032, representing a<br>50% reduction in projected fleet average GHG emissions compared to 2026 model year standards, and |
|---|---|
| • | 274 grams/mile of CO2 for medium-duty vehicles by 2032, representing<br>a 44% reduction in projected fleet average GHG emissions compared to 2026 model year standards. |
| --- | --- |
In addition, in June 2024, the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announced the final corporate Average Fuel Economy (“CAFE”) standards — regulating how far vehicles must travel on a gallon of fuel for 2027 to 2031 model year vehicles. The standards would effectively bring the average light-duty vehicle fuel economy up to approximately 50.4 miles per gallon by model year 2031. However, in December 2025, under the current U.S. administration, a proposal was unveiled by the U.S. Department of Transportation to relax fuel economy standards by setting the industry-wide average for light-duty vehicles at roughly 34.5 miles per gallon through the 2031 model year. The proposed standards will also eliminate the CAFE credit trading program starting in model year 2028, which previously allowed auto makers to trade compliance credits.
The current U.S. administration has also taken steps to roll back policies supporting electric vehicles (“EVs”). In addition to the proposed roll back of tailpipe emissions standards discussed above, the administration has eliminated EV purchase incentives, revoked the prior administration’s executive order targeting 50% of new vehicle sales to be zero-emission by 2030, and halted funding for EV infrastructure that had been earmarked in the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 and the Infrastructure Investments and Jobs Act. The U.S. EPA has also recently rescinded its 2009 Endangerment Finding for greenhouse gases, which forms the basis for the regulation of motor vehicle emissions standards.
Globally, the EV market continues to grow, with nearly one in five cars sold in 2025 being electric. China and certain countries in Europe are leading the charge with strong government support and incentives. Norway is a global leader in EV adoption with 92% of total passenger vehicle sales being EV in 2024. China was a leader in volume of EVs sold based on 48% of vehicle sales being EVs in 2024. Meanwhile, United States lags other major markets with EVs comprising approximately 10% of total car sales in 2024. At a global level, tightening emissions standards are intended to promote the transition to ZEVs. OEMs have been spending significant sums in R&D in order to meet the higher regulatory standards. Although production of ZLEVs/ZEVs is accelerating due to regulatory requirements, to the extent that ZLEVs/ZEVs do not sell at the levels expected, including as a result of governmental policy reversals, production volumes may need to be reduced. Lower than forecast production may impact our ability to recover various pre-production, tooling, engineering, and other costs incurred in advance of production, or to recover them within the timeframe initially contemplated in our business plan. Additionally, we may experience production inefficiencies, including as a result of unutilized or underutilized production capacity and/or disruptions to our workforce plans at affected facilities.
| • | Phase-Out of New ICE Vehicles: In addition to more stringent fleet emissions<br>and fuel efficiency standards, the number of national and subnational jurisdictions committing to, or accelerating existing commitments to, phase-out of the sale or registration of new ICE engines is growing.<br>As part of its ‘Fit for 55’ legislation, the E.U. will require 100% reduction in CO2 emissions by 2035 effectively banning the sale of new gasoline and diesel fueled vehicles in<br>E.U. member countries by that date, with an interim reduction of 55% by 2030. |
|---|
The United Kingdom introduced new regulations (the Zero Emission Vehicle (“ZEV”) Mandate) in January 2024 requiring 22% of all new cars and vans sold by OEMs in the UK to be zero emission. However, some flexibilities were introduced which effectively brought down the target to 18%, and which the auto industry met with 19.6% EV sales in 2024. For 2025, the headline target is 28% but with flexibilities this works out to just over 22%, with the percentage rising to 80% by 2030, and culminating in the complete ban on the sale of new ICE vehicles by 2035.
In North America, Canada is advancing vehicle electrification through a revised regulatory and industrial strategy announced in February 2026. The federal government is repealing the Electric Vehicle Availability Standard and replacing it with greenhouse gas emissions standards for light-duty vehicles. These standards are intended to place Canada on a pathway
A-28 | 2026 Annual Information Form
toward approximately 75% electric vehicle sales by 2035 and 90% by 2040, while providing manufacturers flexibility to comply using a range of technologies, including battery-electric vehicles, plug-in hybrids, and other high-efficiency vehicles. Complementary measures include investments in domestic vehicle and battery manufacturing, clean electricity and charging infrastructure, and renewed consumer incentives to support affordability and accelerate zero-emission vehicle adoption.
In the U.S., the State of California’s, California Air Resources Board (“CARB”) had adopted the Advanced Clean Cars II regulations in 2022. The regulations ban ICE-powered vehicles in California by 2035, and include progressive targets for ZLEVs in the intervening years. Several U.S. States and the District of Columbia have existing laws that require state emissions policies to mirror those of California. Currently 17 U.S. states have adopted all or part of California’s low-emissions or zero-emission vehicle regulations. In addition, the following U.S. states have adopted California’s Advanced Clean Cars II regulations: Colorado; Delaware; Maryland; Massachusetts; New Jersey; New Mexico; New York; Oregon; Rhode Island; Vermont; Washington and the District of Columbia. In May 2025, the EPA waivers granted to California were rescinded, including the Clean Air Act waiver underpinning the Advanced Clean Cars II regulations. California has challenged the revocation and it is currently under judicial review.
Given the lead times for vehicle development such regulation and proposed regulation are expected to increasingly impact OEM and automotive supplier product planning and development this decade, and have led to several OEM establishing EV targets for specific brands or their complete vehicle offerings. Although the number of EVs sold globally continues to grow, the rate of growth has moderated in some markets due to consumer hesitancy related to issues such as: vehicle affordability; reduced availability of government rebates for the purchase of EVs; concerns regarding evolving battery technologies; anxiety regarding driving range; inadequacy of charging infrastructure; new EV OEMs and models with little or no operating and warranty history; and rapid depreciation and deterioration in residual values for EVs. As a result, Certain OEMs, primarily in North America, continue updating their EV strategies by deferring or cancelling planned EV programs and/or reducing production volumes below the levels at which we previously quoted. Where possible, we are pursuing commercial recoveries from our customers as a result of these actions, but we may be unable to fully recover various pre-production, tooling, engineering, and other costs incurred in advance of production, or unable to recover them within the timeframe originally contemplated in our business plan. We may also experience production inefficiencies, including as a result of unutilized or underutilized production capacity. Despite the current pace of EV adoption and the program deferrals discussed above, each of our top six customers maintains targets for greater EV production by the 2030-2035 period. BEVs accounted for approximately 16% of total of global light vehicle production in 2025, and are projected to reach 28% by 2030 (41% by 2035) based on current S&P Global (Autobase) light vehicle production forecasts.
| • | Vehicle Restrictions in Congested Urban Centres: municipal governments in a number of cities around the world have<br>introduced restrictions on personal-use vehicles in congested urban centres, in an effort to reduce CO2 emissions and improve urban air quality. Examples<br>of the types of restrictions include: car-free zones; toll charges; and use restrictions by license plate. Continued expansion of such initiatives could reduce the demand for<br>personal-use vehicles, which could affect our profitability. |
|---|
We attempt to mitigate applicable policy risks relating to climate change-related regulation in a number of ways, including:
| • | monitoring and evaluating global regulatory developments; |
|---|---|
| • | early-stage interaction with our OEM customers to understand their product priorities and regulatory compliance<br>requirements; |
| --- | --- |
| • | in-house R&D, including our ongoing analysis of industry and other trends,<br>combined with investment strategies in mobility and technology start-ups; and |
| --- | --- |
| • | strategic planning processes at both Operating Group and Corporate levels, including Board oversight of strategic plans.<br> |
| --- | --- |
In terms of direct policy actions affecting our operations, we anticipate continued strengthening of environmental regulations related to industrial emissions and discharge of pollutants to air, water and ground. We currently face strict environmental regulations in the countries where we operate and have developed a global environmental management program in order to comply with or exceed regulatory standards. Our environmental management program is regularly updated to address
2026 Annual Information Form | A-29
changing environmental laws and regulations. Refer to “Section 2.5.1 — Environmental Stewardship” in this Sustainability Report for a description of the program.

Over the medium-to long-term, carbon pricing initiatives may present a risk to our profitability. According to the World Bank, in 2025 there were 113 carbon pricing initiatives including Emissions Trading Scheme (“ETS”), Carbon Tax, and Governmental Crediting mechanisms, implemented or scheduled for implementation in 55 countries and 44 sub-national jurisdictions, which would cover emissions representing 28% of global GHG emissions.
Currently, some of our operations are impacted by two emissions trading schemes:
| • | **E.U. ETS:**Our Magna Steyr complete vehicle assembly operation participates in the E.U. Emissions Trading Scheme<br>which works on the ‘cap and trade’ principle. A cap is set on the total amount of certain GHG that can be emitted by the operators covered by the system. The cap is reduced over time so that total emissions fall. Within the cap,<br>operators purchase or receive emissions allowances, which they can trade with one another as needed. The limit on the total number of allowances available aims to maintain their value. The price signal incentivizes emission reductions and promotes<br>investment in innovative, low-carbon technologies, while trading brings flexibility so that emissions are cut where it costs least to do so. After each year, an operator must surrender enough allowances to<br>cover fully its emissions, otherwise heavy fines are imposed. If an installation reduces its emissions, it can keep the spare allowances to cover its future needs or else sell them to another operator that is short of allowances.<br> |
|---|---|
| • | **Ontario Emission Performance Standards (“EPS”) Program:**While none of our facilities are currently<br>mandated to join the EPS Program, two of our facilities in Ontario voluntarily participate in the Program, and several other of our Ontario facilities may also voluntarily opt in. The Province of Ontario Emissions Performance Standards Regulation is<br>used to determine an emissions limit that industrial facilities must meet each year, with the intent of, among other things, encouraging Ontario’s industrial sector to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Facilities registered under the Ontario<br>EPS must quantify and report their GHG emissions data to the authorities, have such emissions data verified and must comply with their emissions limits. The compliance obligation for a facility under the Ontario EPS program is the difference between<br>its verified total emissions and its verified total annual emissions limit imposed by the Ontario EPS program. A facility can satisfy its compliance obligation either by reducing its GHG emissions or submitting a compliance instrument. The two<br>compliance instruments available are (i) excess emissions units (“EEUs”) where the facility pays a carbon price per tons of CO2e for exceeding the annual emissions limit; and<br>(ii) emissions performance units, which are credits earned by a facility for emitting less GHG that its annual emissions limit under the Program. The Program aligns carbon prices for future years with Canada’s federal benchmark, which<br>will result in the price of EEUs to increase annually. |
| --- | --- |
The carbon pricing schemes discussed above have not significantly impacted our profitability to date. We are pursuing energy reduction measures and developing decarbonization strategies for our manufacturing facilities as detailed in this Sustainability
A-30 | 2026 Annual Information Form
Report. However, over the medium- to long-term, carbon pricing initiatives could affect our profitability to the extent we are unable to implement cost-saving or energy reduction measures within a timeframe and/or at a cost which enables us to offset or avoid the cost of carbon pricing initiatives.
Customer-Driven Policy Actions
A number of our OEM customers have set carbon reduction targets and are challenging Tier 1 Suppliers to support such targets. Some such OEM targets and expectations are more aggressive than our own decarbonization targets. In some cases, we are being asked to quote the supply of future programs based on 100% renewable energy use for production. Although we expect to meet or exceed our customers’ expectations, the inability to do so within the timeframes expected could result in the loss of some future business.
Climate-Related Litigation
We do not currently believe that climate-change related litigation represents a significant legal risk for us. However, if OEMs are adversely impacted by climate-change litigation, there is a possibility that Tier 1 Suppliers like Magna could face additional pricing pressure. Readers are encouraged to review the “Customer Pricing Pressure/Contractual Arrangements” risk factor in “Risk Factors” in our AIF.
Technology
Investments in automotive technologies that support the transition to ZLEVs can be significant, particularly in product areas such as battery systems for hybrid and EVs. While our product strategy does not currently include battery systems or other components which generate or store energy for ZLEVs, we have been awarded several battery enclosure programs and currently offer a range of electrified drivetrain products, hybrid dual-clutch transmissions (“HDTs”), dedicated hybrid transmissions (“DHTs”), as well as complete e-Drive systems. We have also expanded our product offering into other areas relevant to ZLEVs — for example, in conjunction with a joint venture partner, we can offer customers a complete EV platform. Our R&D spending for electrification solutions has been significant over the last few years and is expected to continue to be in coming years as electrification-related technologies continue to evolve. Additionally, our OEM customers are making significant investments in the development of ZLEVs, which is impacting their profitability and could lead to increased pricing pressure on us.
As ZLEVs increase their proportion of the overall vehicle market over the medium-to-long-term, we expect our sales of manual transmissions and traditional DCTs to decline, and sales of HDTs, DHTs and e-Drive systems to increase. The increasing adoption of electrified drivetrain solutions adversely impacts our AWD and 4WD businesses over the long term, since it is possible to achieve AWD through the use of electric motors in hybrid or fully-electrified drivetrains. However, OEM product plans show mechanical AWD and 4WD programs extending out for approximately the next decade. We seek to offset displacement of mechanical AWD and 4WD systems through increased sales of electrified product offerings such as e-Drive systems.
Overall, we believe that the range of products we offer our OEM customers provides us with a competitive advantage and an effective hedge against the market uncertainties associated with the transition to ZLEVs. As illustrated below, a substantial majority of our products are “agnostic” with respect to the type of vehicle propulsion system used, and therefore remain relevant to ZLEVs.
In the case of drivetrain products, we view the know-how gained from our mechanical drivetrain expertise as being critical to our ability to deliver innovative electrified solutions that meet our customers’ needs. In addition to continuing to offer a range of mechanical and electrified drivetrain products, we aim to mitigate technology transition risks through:
| • | early-stage interaction with our OEM customers to understand their product priorities and regulatory compliance<br>requirements; |
|---|---|
| • | in-house R&D including our ongoing analysis of industry and other trends,<br>combined with investment strategies in mobility and technology start-ups; and |

Market
Some of the risks impacting the market for our products in the transition to a lower carbon economy are described above under “Regulatory Policy Actions” and “Technology”. Additionally, there are potential risks to the demand for personal mobility vehicles, and thus for our products, from technology-driven shared mobility solutions such as ride hailing and ride sharing. To date, such shared mobility solutions have not had a material impact on the demand for new vehicles and no such adverse effect is expected in the near- to medium-term. In any event, our own strategy related to new mobility seeks to mitigate risks to our business and realize opportunities based on the breadth of capabilities we can offer new mobility customers.
Additionally, in order to enhance our understanding of potential shifts in consumer behavior, we conduct our own analysis of various factors that are expected to drive future personal and shared mobility trends, including through:
| • | monitoring and analysis of social, digital, demographic, regulatory, industry, geopolitical and other trends which may<br>create demand for and drive development of new automotive and mobility technologies; |
|---|---|
| • | review of academic research; |
| --- | --- |
| • | collection and screening of ideas submitted through innovation programs; and |
| --- | --- |
| • | early-stage interaction with our OEM customers and new mobility market entrants to understand their product priorities.<br> |
| --- | --- |
We do not currently anticipate long-term supply constraints on key commodities required by us in our business, including steel, aluminum or resin. However, production processes for steel and aluminum are carbon intensive, with relatively scarce supply of low-carbon alternatives. As the entire industry’s decarbonization and net-zero efforts increase, the price of low- carbon steel and aluminum may increase in the near- and medium-terms until the supply of low-carbon product is sufficient to meet growing demand. In the near- and medium-term, the increasing production of ZLEVs may also strain supplies of the rare earth minerals and other metals required for vehicle battery systems, which we do not supply, including nickel, cobalt and lithium used in EV batteries, copper for EV charging infrastructure and rare earth metals for EV motor magnets. Geopolitical events and trade disputes, can also significantly impact the supply of rare earth minerals by creating uncertainties and volatility in global markets. Such disputes often result in tariffs, export restrictions, or other measures that can strain supplies of critical materials. However, such supply constraints could help spur the development of alternative battery technologies or low carbon fuels and/or promote technological breakthroughs that could facilitate market penetration of hydrogen fuel cell or other technologies. We intend to continue developing and offering solutions such as e-Drive systems which are neutral as to electric power source (battery or hydrogen fuel cell stack) in order to mitigate potential risks related to supply constraints of rare earth minerals or other commodities needed for current ZLEV power source technologies.

Reputation
Since light vehicles are contributors to global GHG emissions, Tier 1 suppliers like Magna may face reputational risks from participation in the automotive industry. Examples of such risk types include potential loss of business from sustainability-focused customers, reduced investor demand for our shares, and challenges attracting talent. A number of our OEM customers are embedding sustainability criteria in their sourcing decisions and could reduce purchases from us if they perceive Magna to lag other suppliers with respect to sustainability. Stakeholders, including investors and employees, as well as prospective employees are increasingly focused on companies’ sustainability efforts. Investors may sell shares of investee companies perceived to be less sustainable. In addition, younger workforce demographics want to work in companies they perceive as sustainable, making it difficult for companies to attract such talent if the company is perceived as lagging. However, OEMs and Tier 1 Suppliers have been proactively adapting to climate change and transitioning to a lower carbon economy, as evidenced by the significant spending on R&D and technological innovation to reduce CO2 emissions, particularly through electrification and powertrain efficiency, as well as the setting of decarbonization targets in their own operations. At the same time, particular OEMs may be viewed as more or less sustainable based on their sustainability strategies and commitment to transitioning to a lower-carbon economy. Equally, particular vehicle models or even entire vehicle segments may be perceived to be more or less sustainable. As a supplier of a broad range of systems to all major OEMs, we do not anticipate any consequences to our reputation by virtue of the fact that we may supply to any particular OEM, vehicle or vehicle segment. In any event, we believe that our R&D and technological innovation, which is focused on lightweighting, improved fuel economy and lower emissions, together with our sustainability strategy, including our net-zero commitments, and respectable ESG ratings, serve to mitigate potential reputational risks.
2.3.2 Physical Risks andRisk Mitigation
Acute Physical Risks
With the increased frequency and severity of extreme weather events associated with Climate change, including floods, windstorms, wildfires, tornados, tsunamis, hailstorms and other natural weather hazards, we face the risk that such an event could cause significant damage to one or more of our facilities or those of our customers and/or sub-suppliers. While our primary concern in an acute climate event affecting one of our facilities would be the safety and well-being of our employees, property damage and business interruption would represent the primary financial risk.
An acute climate event that significantly damages one of our facilities, could disrupt our production and/or prevent us from supplying products to our customers. Such an event could lead to us incurring a number of costs, many of which may be unrecoverable, including: costs related to the physical repair of any damage to our facility; costs related to premium freight or re-sourcing of supply; penalties or business interruption claims by our customers; loss of future business and reputational damage; and higher insurance costs going forward. Extreme climate events could also disrupt supply chains for the entire
2026 Annual Information Form | A-33
industry over the near-, medium- and long-term. The National Centers for Environmental Information, a U.S. federal agency, estimates that the number of billion-dollar weather and climate disasters in the United States has risen significantly to an annual average of 23 in the last five years, from an annual average of three per year in the 1980s. In recent years, a number of supply disruptions resulting from extreme weather have occurred around the world, including:
| • | A hurricane in the U.S. Gulf Coast that caused delays in automotive component deliveries and production halts.<br> |
|---|---|
| • | Typhoons in Southeast Asia that damaged infrastructure and logistics networks in Vietnam and Thailand, impacting the supply<br>of automotive components. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Flooding in India and Bangladesh that disrupted production and delivery of raw materials needed for automotive<br>manufacturing. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Flooding in Brazil that halted production of major automotive OEMs. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Low water levels on major water ways causing disruption in shipments critical to German automotive parts suppliers.<br> |
| --- | --- |
Such events can cause shortages of critical materials, which in turn drives prices higher. Efforts to mitigate the impact of such events often result in higher near-term costs until disruption of the affected material has been resolved, due to factors such as premium freight costs for substitute materials. As the frequency of such events increases, we may be forced to maintain higher inventories of various materials and components required for production, to minimize potential disruptions.
We maintain a global property risk control (“PRC”) program to support our efforts to mitigate risks to our employees’ safety, physical property risks and potential for business interruption due to extreme weather events. The program, which includes risk engineering with support from a third party property risk engineering consulting firm, includes the following elements to promote the physical resiliency of our facilities and minimize the risk of disruption to our operations: pre-screening of facility site selection; acquisition risk assessments; periodic facility inspections; facility construction and improvement design review and recommendations; training and education. Our third party risk engineering consultant typically engages in over 170 physical on-site assessments annually to evaluate various risks, including those relating to natural hazards and also conducts targeted analysis of areas of concern. Using the Swiss Re CatNet and Munich Re natural catastrophe databases, the advisor has analyzed over 400 unique Magna locations, including our 330 manufacturing Divisions, to assess climate related exposures, including: flood, wind, storm surge, wildfire, tornado, tsunami, hailstorm, lightning, temperature change, precipitation, sea level rise risk and water security. The results of the analysis form the basis of discussions with our PRC group regarding potential risk control recommendations to be implemented in our facilities.
In certain circumstances, the program extends the risk assessment to our direct suppliers by identifying and evaluating potential exposures to our direct supply chain (including natural hazards) which could potentially disrupt business operations. To augment our monitoring capabilities, we use a third party software platform that, among other things, includes live monitoring of supply chain risks, including weather events such as drought, floods, earthquakes, landslides, and tropical storms. Where such supply chain exposures are identified, a more detailed assessment may be performed to better understand the supply chain risk, including further on-site assessment, where practicable.
In considering the potential impact of acute physical risks, readers are encouraged to review the following risk factors in “Risk Factors” in our AIF:
| • | Supply Chain Disruptions |

An extreme weather event that damages any of our manufacturing Divisions and results in injuries or fatalities among employees at such Division could have a material adverse effect on our reputation and could result in legal claims being brought against us.
A-34 | 2026 Annual Information Form
Climate change considerations may impact the availability of insurance capacity and increase premiums for insurance coverage in general, and in particular, for properties in high-risk locations. Additionally, we may need to self-insure a higher level of risk, which could result in a material adverse effect on profitability in the event of an extreme weather event which causes damage to one or more of our facilities.
Chronic Physical Risks
As part of our PRC program, we have retained an advisor to map our global footprint against identified earthquake, wind exposed/ hurricane, flood exposed and wildfire zones, as well as areas with low water security, in order to assist us with footprint planning, as well as our understanding of, and efforts to address, potential risks associated with such types of natural catastrophes. This footprint mapping exercise provided the following conclusions:
| • | **Property Risk Concentrations:**The top ten geographic regions in which we have large concentrations of<br>property/asset risk, meaning multiple locations within a 35 km radius, comprise approximately 44% of the total insured value (“TIV”) under the property risk program. These geographic regions are located in Austria, Canada, Germany,<br>Mexico and the U.S. All of the regions of concentrated property/asset value are considered to be “Low” seismic hazard zones and are not exposed to tropical cyclones. |
|---|---|
| • | **Seismic Zones:**Scientific research is increasingly linking the effects of climate change on seismic activity.<br>More specifically, it is believed that changes in climate that alter ice and water loads could lead to more frequent fault movements and earthquakes due to rapidly changing stress conditions. We have operations in Austria, Morocco, Portugal, India,<br>Türkiye, Japan, Italy, Romania, North Macedonia, Serbia, China, the U.S., and Mexico comprising approximately 5.5% of the TIV under our property risk program, which are located in regions of “moderately high” or greater seismic<br>hazard. There are no Magna operations in regions where the seismic hazard is considered “Very High” or “Extreme”. |
| --- | --- |
| • | **Tropical Cyclone Zones:**Operations in certain parts of Mexico, Japan, China, India, and the U.S. comprising<br>approximately 4.2% of the TIV under our property risk program are located in hurricane risk Zone 1 to Zone 5, with 2 locations in Mexico, 1 location in China, 1 location in India and 1 in the U.S. falling in Zone 3, as per Munich Re’s Natural<br>Hazards Assessment Network (NATHAN) categorization. TIV by Tropical Cyclone Zones are as follows: |
| --- | --- |
| Munich Re (NATHAN) Tropical Cyclone Zone | Proportion of TIV |
| --- | --- |
| Zone 5: > 300 km/h | NIL |
| Zone 4:<br>252-300 km/h | NIL |
| Zone 3:<br>213-251 km/h | 0.5% |
| Zone 2:<br>185-212 km/h | 0.3% |
| Zone 1:<br>142-184 km/h | 3.4% |
| Zone 0:<br>76-141 km/h | 23.5% |
| No hazard: < 76 km/h | 72.3% |
| • | **Flood Zones:**Flood risk is typically categorized as 50-year, 100-year, 200-year and 500-year flood risks. Definitions of these categories based on Swiss Re’s CatNet Global Flood Zone (GFZ)<br>categorization showing the number of our locations and the proportion by TIV for each category are as follows. The information provides insights into possible flood hazards across the property portfolio. Site specific flood hazard determination<br>requires highly precise geocoding, digital local authority |

|---|---|---|---|
| Category | FloodProbability | Number of<br><br><br>Locations | Proportion of TIV |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 50 year | 1 in 50 (2%) chance of occurring in a year | 17 | 1.4% |
| 100 year | 1 in 100 (1%) chance of occurring in a year | 65 | 9.2% |
| 200 year | 1 in 200 (0.5%) chance of occurring in a year | 58 | 11.2% |
| 500 year | 1 in 500 (0.2%) chance of occurring in a year | 32 | 2.8% |
| Outside | Outside recognized flood zones | 518 | 75.4% |
Climate change is associated with a rise in sea levels as well as an increase in the frequency and severity of flooding, which places properties located within a five kilometres radius of the current coastline at greater risk of coastal flooding. A total of thirteen (13) of our Divisions are located five kilometres or closer to a coastline or body of water and thus may be at higher risk from the effects of climate-change related sea rise or flooding:
| No. of Divisions | Location(s) | Body of Water |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | Michigan, U.S. | Lake Michigan |
| 1 | Ohio, U.S. | Lake Erie |
| 1 | California, U.S. | San Pedro Creek |
| 1 | Ontario, Canada | Lake Ontario |
| 1 | Liverpool, U.K. | River Mersey |
| 1 | Bari, Italy | Adriatic Sea |

| 1 | Santa Catarina, Brazil | Rio Piral |
| 1 | Hangzhou, China | East China Sea |
| 1 | Taizhou, China | East China Sea |
| 1 | Kanagawa, Japan | Onda River |
Two of such Divisions, one in Türkiye and one in China, representing less than 0.1% of TIV are located within one kilometre of a coastline.
| • | **Wildfires:**One division located in Brazil and one in the United States, representing less than 1% of TIV, are<br>considered as being exposed to significant wildfire risk. All other wildfire risk is considered moderate to negligible. Wildfire risk is reviewed based on proximity to forests and grasslands with consideration of topography and climate conditions.<br> |
|---|---|
| • | **Tornados:**The review of tornado hazard is based on the historical occurrence and the intensity of F2 to F5 (see<br>F-Scale below) events based on meteorological data. Approximately 81% of property values fall within the moderate to “no tornado observed” categories, based on Swiss Re’s hazard data. The<br>other 19% fall within the significant, high and very high categories, and represent various locations in the U.S. and one location in Canada. |

| --- | --- |
Increasing temperature in addition to changes in precipitation patterns can cause drier weather conditions and more intense and frequent water scarcity and drought events.
As part of our Property Risk Management program, we conducted an assessment of water scarcity risk in 2025. Water scarcity suggests the absence of a reliable or acceptable quantity and quality of water. Water is a critical input in many production processes as well as the lifeblood of sprinkler protection systems. A reduction or failure of water supply could cause a significant impact on operations in the affected region. The methodology for determining water scarcity exposure was based on the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) of the IPCC. CMIP6 models make use of climate change scenarios based on “Shared Socioeconomic Pathways” (“SSPs”), which include, socioeconomic factors. The SSP framework provides a set of detailed narratives/scenarios describing different paths society could take during the 21st century in response to climate change, with regards to economic, technological, social and geopolitical factors. These narratives/scenarios can help organizations anticipate risks to their businesses in an integrated, holistic manner.
The water scarcity index resulting from the assessment describes the hazard of a location facing a deficit in the availability of freshwater supply on a scale of 1 (very low) to 5 (very high). Of the locations assessed in 2025, there are currently 21 Magna locations with a high or very high exposure to water scarcity, this number represents approximately 7% of the portfolio assessed and includes locations in China, India, Italy, Mexico, Spain, and Morocco. Mexico represents the most significant region in terms of exposure to water scarcity risks, as approximately 50% of the affected locations currently exposed are in Mexico. Using the SSP1 (Sustainability) scenario, the number of Magna locations with a high or very high water scarcity exposure increases to 27 in 2030 with locations in Canada and Turkey added. When reviewing the water scarcity variables (such as water stress, water depletion and interannual variability), certain Magna Divisions in Mexico consistently appear in the analysis, confirming the high exposure to water scarcity in these regions. While we currently attempt to mitigate the impact of water scarcity risks through water reduction and re-use activities, including the use of treated waste water for irrigation of green areas on a site, the water scarcity analysis is used for additional discussions with specific Divisions and our risk engineering consultant, including potential additional recommendations for action plans to mitigate water scarcity risks in the affected regions.
In considering the potential impact of chronic physical risks, readers are encouraged to review the following risk factors in “Risk Factors” in our AIF:

2.4 Water, Waste & Biodiversity
2.4.1 Water
We have implemented a 1.5% per year water reduction target, with the aim of reducing water use 15% by 2030, in each case referencing 2019 as the baseline year. To date, we have met this target, having achieved a reduction of over 18% at the end of 2025. While we are not a significant water user, achievement of water reductions would be expected to result in cost savings, potentially by offsetting (in whole or in part) any increase in the rates charged by applicable water utilities. Overall, we do not anticipate that any savings will be material. This strategy reflects our dedication to responsible water management across operations and the supply chain. The components of the strategy are the following:
Risk Assessment
Magna has completed a water risk assessment using the WWF Water Risk Filter. The 30 sites with the highest risk scores were identified as an entry point to our water stewardship strategy, with the intention to expand the strategy to other Magna sites. Sites with the highest water risk scores are located mostly in: India, China and Mexico. As a risk score sub-category, the WWF Water Risk Filter assesses Water Availability. For Magna, Mexico has the most divisions with High Risk and Very High Risk scores in this sub-category.
Water Stewardship
Magna’s water strategy is to reduce impact on water resources in our local communities and contribute globally to a resilient, sustainable water future through water conservation, water quality, supply chain, and transparency. Building upon a foundation of strong environmental performance, Magna will continue its commitment to water conservation with a 1.5% annual water reduction target, aiming to reduce water use by 15% by 2030, with 2019 serving as the baseline year. We achieved an over 18% reduction at the end of 2025.
Targets &Actions
We maintain the following targets with respect to water:
| • | 1.5% annual reduction |
|---|---|
| • | 15% overall water reduction by 2030 v. 2019 baseline |
| --- | --- |
| • | All Magna Divisions must meet Magna’s Global Effluent Guideline |
| --- | --- |
Magna’s water stewardship strategy is aligned with Magna’s Environmental Principles (“MEPs”). Additionally, Divisions with programs aligned with Magna’s water stewardship strategy will see higher MAFACT operational assessment scores.
Progress toward the goals and water conservation plans is continually monitored. Divisions are directed to use the Water Use Inventory and Management Plan which is aligned to Magna’s MEPS and MAFACT assessment process. Divisions are required to follow Magna’s Global Effluent Guidelines for sanitary (including process) and stormwater, found in the MEPs, emphasizing commitment to water quality.
Support is offered to the divisions by the Corporate Sustainability team through water-saving idea sharing and through Suppliers Partnership water stewardship resources, including Core Water Metrics for Automotive Operations, the Water Stewardship Strategy Framework, and a Water Stewardship Action Matrix.
Supply Chain
Magna is committed to water stewardship along the supply chain. Magna utilizes a third-party platform to record supply chain water reduction targets and metrics. Additionally, the mandatory NQC SAQ for key suppliers indicates a supplier’s CDP Water score, and whether a supplier has a commitment to water quality, consumption, and management within their
A-38 | 2026 Annual Information Form
CSR/Sustainability requirements. As Magna continues to enhance its water stewardship activities, we intend to implement a supplier water risk assessment and follow similar steps to the internal practices to promote water stewardship among suppliers.
2.4.2 Waste
We have also implemented a zero waste to landfill (“ZWTL”) target. Waste sent to landfill bears both an economic cost borne by Magna, and an environmental cost borne by society as a whole. Although achievement of our ZWTL target will help reduce or eliminate the economic cost, we do not anticipate any such savings will be material. In 2025 we diverted 96.7% of waste generated away from landfill.
In 2025, Magna introduced a comprehensive waste strategy to minimize waste generation across our operations and product lifecycle. The strategy focuses on minimizing waste generation across our operations and product lifecycle, increasing recycling and reuse, and integrating sustainable materials throughout the product lifecycle. It also strengthens engagement with our supply chain and emphasizes transparency in reporting. Building on our progress toward Zero Waste to Landfill and alignment with Magna’s Environmental Principles, the strategy sets targets and actions to drive continuous improvement across operations and products. Centered on four key pillars: Operational Waste, Product Circular Economy, Supply Chain, and Transparency, the components of the strategy are the following:
Targets & Actions: Operational Waste
We maintain the following targets with respect to operational waste:
| • | 95% ZWTL^(1)^ by 2030 |
|---|---|
| • | Increase recycling with a reduction in landfill/incineration |
| --- | --- |
| ^1^ | The current definition for ZWTL used by Magna includes energy from waste. In line with the 2028 MEPs update, the ZWTL<br>definition will be updated to 90% waste diversion NOT including energy from waste. |
| --- | --- |
Magna’s waste strategy is aligned with Magna’s MEPs. Divisions aligned with Magna’s waste strategy will see improvement in MAFACT scores. MAFACT assessments require divisions to report waste reduction projects and metrics and to utilize the Waste Inventory and Reduction Planning Guidance and the Waste Balance Tracking Sheet Template & Waste Reduction Plan Checklist. These resources are aligned with Magna MEPs focused on waste inventory, reduction planning, and waste disposal.
Targets & Actions: Circular Economy
The Magna Sustainable Materials Roadmap is structured under four pillars: Circular Materials/Recycled Content in Products, Renewable Materials, End-of-Life Recyclability, and Products/Design Supporting Vehicle Efficiency. The roadmap references the OEM Material and Recycled Content targets. These targets serve as a guide for groups and divisions to align with targets and become leaders in automotive material sustainability.
Support will be offered from the Sustainability team on Product Carbon Footprint and Life Cycle Assessment, leading to long-term waste reduction for Magna products. Additionally, Suppliers Partnership Circular Economy resources will be made available to the divisions on topics such as Sustainable Materials and Sustainable Packaging. Suppliers Partnership has also published Core Waste Metrics for Automotive Operations, which will be provided for use by the divisions.
Supply Chain
Magna is committed to waste reduction along the supply chain. Magna uses a third-party platform to monitor waste metrics and utilizes the mandatory NQC SAQ for key suppliers to determine if suppliers have a waste reduction plan included in their CSR/ Sustainability requirements. As Magna progresses on its own waste reduction journey, similar best practices and resource sharing will be made available to suppliers.
2026 Annual Information Form | A-39
2.4.3 Biodiversity
In 2025, Magna completed a biodiversity risk assessment using the Integrated Biodiversity Assessment Tool (“IBAT”). This report identified Magna sites located within the boundaries of Key Biodiversity Areas and Protected Areas. The IBAT report assigns two biodiversity significance scores to the sites. These scores provide an understanding of the potential for biodiversity restoration and the reduction of threats to species by location. Following this report, a working group within the Sustainability and Environmental teams has begun to develop a strategy and potential targets for biodiversity.
Magna will also continue to contribute to the SP Nature-Based Solutions Working group to aid in the development of industry-wide biodiversity guidance and resources.
We maintain a phytosanitation program aimed at preventing the introduction and spread of plant diseases (i.e., pests and mold) through the cross-border import/export process. Our phytosanitation policy which applies to suppliers and shippers aligns with the International Plant Protection Convention standard for treatment of wood packaging material (e.g., wooden pallets), and includes the requirements of ISPM-15 (International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures). Our phytosanitation program includes training sessions for internal employees and suppliers, as well as reviews aimed at confirming compliance with our policy.
2.4.4 Packaging and Shipping
Enhanced in 2025, Magna’s Global Packaging and Shipping Guidelines are designed to promote safe and efficient packaging and shipping of materials to Magna facilities worldwide. These guidelines emphasize part quality, ergonomic considerations, and the use of sustainable materials to minimize environmental impact. Our suppliers are responsible for complying with these standards and ensuring material quality throughout the shipping process. The guidelines detail the development and approval process for packaging, outlining the responsibilities of both Magna and its suppliers. This includes defining preferred packaging systems, approving packaging plans, and ensuring compliance with local regulations. Specific requirements cover pricing, design, container selection, ergonomic considerations, and testing. Sustainability is a key focus, with guidelines promoting the use of recyclable materials and reducing waste. Magna encourages the use of resin identification codes for plastic packaging to facilitate recycling and discourages wasteful, excessive, or non-recyclable packaging. The guidelines follow a hierarchy of waste elimination: reduce, reuse, and recycle. Suppliers are expected to continuously identify and correct wasteful packaging practices, ensuring that all materials used are recyclable and contribute to a circular economy.
As a member of SP, Magna worked alongside other SP member companies to create a voluntary guidance document-Automotive Packaging Materials Collectionand Handling Practices-designed to advance sustainable packaging practices in the automotive industry. Building on previously published SP Sustainable Packaging Guidelines and related resources, this new guidance, released in July 2025, represents the latest in a series of initiatives aimed at promoting packaging circularity across the sector.
Magna collaborated with the industry in development of this guidance document by:
| • | Co-chairing the collaborative process with Toyota Motor North America.<br> |
|---|---|
| • | Inviting input for the guidance document from leading OEMs — including Ford Motor Company, General Motors, Honda<br>Development & Manufacturing America, Stellantis, and Toyota — along with tiered suppliers, packaging providers, and recyclers. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Communicating, building and expanding shared solutions that carry the potential for impact across the value chain.<br> |
| --- | --- |
| • | Supporting RecycleMax with drafting the guidance document which offers practical recommendations for material-specific<br>handling and sorting, space planning, signage design, and implementation strategies. |
| --- | --- |
The best practices discussed in the resource help OEMs and suppliers maximize recyclable material recovery, reduce landfill waste, and minimize contamination in recycling streams. Spearheaded by RecycleMax and shaped by feedback from automakers,
A-40 | 2026 Annual Information Form
suppliers, packaging companies, and recyclers, the guidance emphasizes operationally tested solutions that can be adapted to facilities of varying sizes and locations — supporting industry-wide goals for circularity and sustainability.
2.4.5 Resilience
The automotive industry as a whole is investing in innovations aimed at adapting mobility products and service solutions to a lower carbon economy. The risk mitigation factors below in “Section 2.3 — Climate-Related Risks and Risk Mitigation” and initiatives to realize opportunities discussed in this Section of the Sustainability Report, are expected to promote our ability to adapt and succeed in a lower carbon economy.

2.5.3 Hazardous Waste and Industrial Emissions
We operate a number of manufacturing facilities that use environmentally-sensitive processes and hazardous materials. We believe that all of these operations meet, in all material respects, applicable governmental standards for management of hazardous waste and industrial emissions. Occasionally our operations may receive a notice of violation or similar communication from local regulators during routine reviews. We have in the past and will continue in the future to address any such notices promptly. Based on our preliminary data, approximately five percent of the aggregate waste generated by Magna in 2025 was hazardous, similar to 2024. We attempt to reduce the amount of hazardous waste that ends up in secure landfills through: recycling, reuse or energy recovery initiatives. Approximately 92% of the hazardous waste generated by Magna in 2025 was diverted from secure landfills through such initiatives.
2.5.4 Air Emissions Management
Air pollutants are tracked and managed at the Divisional level in accordance with the Magna Environmental Principles. Each Division maintains an inventory and layout of emission sources, including roof plans identifying emission points, their type and characteristics, and associated airborne pollutants. In addition, Divisions implement air quality management plans aimed at limiting emissions of pollutants of concern including noise. These plans include annual reviews of emission inventories, identification of uncontrolled processes, and evaluation and implementation of technically and economically feasible controls. Compliance is verified annually, with any deviations addressed by Corporate Environmental.

3. Social Responsibility
3.1 Human Rights & Working Conditions In Our Operations and Supply Chain
3.1.1 Magna’s Values and Commitment toRespecting Human Rights
Respect for human rights is a part of our core company values and we recognize our responsibility with respect to preventing forced/child labour and promoting socially responsible business practices. We are committed to conducting business in a legal and ethical manner globally and we seek to fully comply with all applicable labour and other laws in all jurisdictions in which we operate. While such jurisdictions have a range of different laws, Magna’s policy framework applies equally to all our operations across the globe to establish a common and consistent baseline for the fair treatment of our own employees, as well as those in our supply chain. We hold our own employees to high ethical standards and expect the same commitment of our suppliers, vendors, consultants, independent contractors, agents, or any third party engaged on our behalf (collectively, “suppliers”). We expect Magna personnel and suppliers to act with integrity by obeying the letter and spirit of laws, regulations, standards and Magna policies that apply to them, wherever they do business. A failure by any of our suppliers to do so can result in the termination by Magna of the supply relationship.
3.1.2 Governance
In addition to setting the “tone from the top” regarding our commitment to human rights and working conditions, Executive Management approves the implementation of the policies, procedures, systems, and tools described in this Sustainability Report, including through the Magna Compliance Council, which provides regular and ad-hoc updates on measures implemented to comply with relevant laws and regulations covering social risks.
Several of Magna’s Corporate functions centrally manage policies and, in some cases, implementation of activities aimed at social risks generally, and forced/child labour risk in particular. These include:
| • | Magna’s global Human Resources function (including Magna’s Health, Safety and Environmental department), is<br>responsible for ensuring respect for working conditions and employment standards compliance, human rights, safety and employee wellness, as well as environmental standards, within our own business, as well as managing various due diligence and audit<br>processes, including those described in Section 3.5; |
|---|---|
| • | a Human Rights Officer (“HRO”) oversees our compliance with the German Supply Chain Due Diligence Act<br>(Lieferkettensorgfaltspflichtengesetz (LkSG)) (the “German Act”). We also have a global advisory board comprised of senior Magna leadership that provides guidance and receives periodic reports on the activities of the HRO and the German<br>Act compliance team; |
| --- | --- |
| • | Magna’s global Procurement and Supplier Management function is responsible for directing due diligence processes<br>within the supplier base, as described below. The Supplier Management team leads a cross-functional working group that includes representation from legal, ethics and compliance, human resources, sustainability and other functions that determines<br>Magna’s standards for its suppliers and oversees global implementation of key due diligence and other supply chain activities; |
| --- | --- |
| • | our Ethics and Compliance function oversees our ethics and compliance program, updates to key policies such as our Code of<br>Conduct, and Supplier Code (each discussed below), and Ethics and Compliance training, as well as related investigations and remedial action; |
| --- | --- |
| • | other specialist functions provide regular and ad-hoc reports to their function<br>leadership; and |
| --- | --- |
| • | our global Sustainability team that provides overall support for ESG policy, practices and initiatives.<br> |
| --- | --- |
We maintain cross-functional working groups to coordinate implementation of activities to meet obligations under laws and regulations addressing human rights and social risks, including the German Act, Canadian Forced Labour Act, the U.S. Uyghur
A-44 | 2026 Annual Information Form
Forced Labor Prevention Act, the E.U. Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (“CSDDD”); and E.U. Regulation on Prohibiting Products Made with Forced Labour on the Union Market.
Magna’s Compliance Council supervises our ethics and compliance program, by satisfying itself that the required elements of our compliance Program are being carried out globally by our cross-functional Operating Group Compliance Committees.
Day-to-day responsibility for effective implementation and execution of compliance activities relating to human rights are managed by each of Magna’s Operating Groups and their respective business divisions and partners within our overall policy framework and with the support of the Magna Corporate functions referred to above.
Board-level oversight is provided by its standing committee, the GNSC (with respect to supply chain risks) and the Talent Oversight and Compensation Committee (with respect to health and safety risks and social risks related to our own workforce). Our Audit Committee oversees our global compliance program.
We annually report our activities with respect forced labour/child labour pursuant to Canada’s Fighting Against Forced Labour and Child Labour in Supply Chains Act (the “Canadian Forced Labour Act”). The report is available on our website (www.magna.com).
3.1.3 Our Policy & Supplier Contracting Framework
We maintain a number of policies designed to reinforce our rigorous expectations regarding, among other things, ethical behaviour and respect for human rights and working conditions for both our employees and our suppliers. These include:
| • | Our Code of Conduct and related policies which are discussed in greater detail in Section 4.1.1 |
|---|---|
| • | Our Global Labour Standards. All Magna employees and suppliers are required to abide by our Global Labour Standards, which<br>articulate our commitment to various internationally recognized frameworks that govern workers’ rights, including the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights, International Labour Organization (“ILO”) Fundamental Conventions<br>(which include conventions prohibiting forced and child labour-related practices), and ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work. The Global Labour Standards have been incorporated into our Supplier Code of Conduct<br>(“Supplier Code”). |
| --- | --- |
| • | Our Human Rights & Environmental Statement (the “Human Rights Statement”), a comprehensive summary of<br>Magna’s values and commitment regarding human rights and environmental standards, and internal and supply chain requirements. The Human Rights Statement outlines our human rights and environmental risks identification and assessment processes,<br>as well as the manner in which we control, prevent, and if necessary, remediate issues. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Our Supplier Code — a foundational document in our business relationships with suppliers. It outlines the principles<br>we apply internally at Magna through our Code, as well as expectations we have for every company that supplies goods or services to Magna, relating to, among other things: |
| --- | --- |
| – | ethical business conduct, such as compliance with antitrust/competition, anti-corruption/bribery and export controls laws;<br>conflict minerals reporting; avoidance and reporting of conflicts of interest; and protection of Magna intellectual property and confidential information; |
| --- | --- |
| – | employee rights, including those rights set out in our Employee’s Charter, Global Working Conditions and Global<br>Labour Standards Policy; and |
| --- | --- |
| – | environmental responsibility and compliance. |
| --- | --- |
Our Supplier Code is a mandatory contractual requirement for all of our suppliers. This aligns our suppliers with Magna’s core values and ethical standards, reinforcing our shared responsibility for sustainable business practices. This policy framework forms an integral part of our overall contractual relationship with our suppliers. It articulates our fair enterprise culture and serves as a general endorsement of the human rights and international labour standards reflected in the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights, ILO Fundamental Conventions, and ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work. The framework also reflects an express and unequivocal prohibition on the use of forced or child labour — both internally
2026 Annual Information Form | A-45
and by suppliers. Pursuant to these policies, as well as applicable Purchasing Terms and Conditions, our suppliers are required to cooperate with audit and investigation activities to validate their adherence to these standards. In accordance with the Supplier Code, suppliers should also require the establishment of similar policies in their own supply chains to facilitate a consistent commitment.
We expect the standards set out in the Supplier Code, Global Labour Standards, and Human Rights Statement to be met by our suppliers, even in jurisdictions where meeting such standards may not be considered part of the usual business culture and a failure to do so can result in the termination by Magna of the supply relationship. The full texts of these policies are available on our website (www.magna.com).
3.1.4 Oversight & Due Diligence
We maintain a number of oversight and due diligence practices relating to suppliers. With respect to our own operations, we maintain:
| • | a global policy on “Doing Business with Staffing Agencies and Third-Party Service Providers” that sets out best<br>practices when doing business with Third-Party vendors supplying labour-related services to Magna, including: due diligence requirements; prohibition on the use of fees or worker debt arrangements that might result in conditions leading to debt<br>bondage; requirements for transparent employment terms; and conducting checks on contract workers for the purposes of verifying ethical and legally compliant employment conditions; |
|---|---|
| • | service agreement templates for use with Third-Party labour suppliers so that contingent workers are subject to the same<br>ethical standards applicable to Magna’s regular full-time employees. The service agreement templates include, among other things, robust audit and investigation provisions; |
| --- | --- |
| • | a system for reporting non-compliant suppliers designed to help prevent business<br>with prohibited suppliers; |
| --- | --- |
| • | a program of ‘manpower’ audits of labour related suppliers; |
| --- | --- |
| • | a global Labour and Employment Audit program designed to assess HR compliance-related issues, policies, and practices at the<br>local Divisional level and adherence to both Magna policy and local laws, in a variety of areas, including fair working conditions and prevention of forced and child labour. |
| --- | --- |
With respect to our production suppliers, we maintain a robust supplier risk assessment and monitoring program that includes and supply chain mapping, supplier reviews, supplier ratings, and where necessary, supplier audits, as detailed in Section 3.5 of this Sustainability Report.
3.1.5 Training & CapacityBuilding
Given the importance of human rights, we implemented mandatory enhanced compliance training for designated categories of employees on responsible sourcing and global supply chain laws, covering such issues such as child labour, human trafficking, forced labour, and the responsible use of third party labour brokers. The training is mandatory for employees across various functional areas with responsibility for hiring and supplier/vendor selection and oversight, such as Human Resources, Purchasing, Legal, and Quality, as well as other functional leadership. Additional detail regarding each training module, as well as number of trainees who completed the training in 2025, can be found in Section 3.2.5.
To aid effective implementation of our sustainable procurement practices, Magna provides targeted training to buyers across all locations. In the reporting period, 1,500 buyers were identified, with 30% having completed training on sustainable procurement. This training equips our teams to make informed, responsible sourcing decisions.
3.2 Fairness and Concern for Our Employees
3.2.1 Our Commitment to Magna Employees
We are committed to an operating philosophy based on fairness and concern for people. This philosophy is one in which employees and management share in the responsibility of ensuring our company’s success. Our Employee’s Charter, a foundational document in our business, sets out this philosophy through the following principles:
A-46 | 2026 Annual Information Form
| • | Job Security — Being competitive by making a better product for a better price is the best way to enhance job<br>security. Magna is committed to working together with employees to help protect their job security. To assist employees Magna will provide job counselling and training, as well as employee and family assistance programs. |
|---|---|
| • | A Safe & Healthful Workplace — Magna is committed to providing employees with a working environment which is<br>safe and healthful. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Fair Treatment — Magna offers equal opportunities based on an individual’s qualifications and performance, free<br>from discrimination or favouritism. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Competitive Wages & Benefits — Magna provides employees with information which enables them to compare their<br>total compensation, including wages and benefits, with those earned by employees of their direct competitors and local companies their Division competes with for people. If total compensation is found not to be competitive, it will be adjusted.<br> |
| --- | --- |
| • | Employee Equity & Profit Participation — Magna believes that every employee should share in the financial<br>success of the company. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Communication & Information — Through regular monthly meetings between management and employees, continuous<br>improvement meetings and through various publications and videos, we keep our employees informed about company and industry developments. We also conduct regular employee opinion surveys to help facilitate employee engagement and to receive valuable<br>feedback from employees to help drive continuous improvement. |
| --- | --- |
| • | The Hotline — Should an employee have a problem, or feel the above principles are not being met, we encourage them to<br>contact the Hotline to register their complaint(s). Those using the Hotline do not have to give their name, but if they choose to do so, it will be held in strict confidence. Hotline Investigators will respond to those using the Hotline. The Hotline<br>is committed to investigating and resolving all concerns or complaints and must report the outcome to Magna’s Global Human Resources Department. We also maintain a confidential and anonymous whistle-blower hotline for employees and other<br>stakeholders that is overseen by our Audit Committee. See Section 4.1 — “Corporate Ethics and Compliance” below for further details. |
| --- | --- |
We also maintain a Global Labour Standards Policy, which codifies our existing practices consistent with our Fair Enterprise culture. This Policy provides a framework for our commitment to fundamental human rights and international standards that help support positive employee relations, including:
| • | promoting the importance of diversity, inclusion, and respect for one another, regardless of personal differences;<br> |
|---|---|
| • | not tolerating harassment of any kind, including physical, sexual, psychological or verbal abuse; |
| --- | --- |
| • | ensuring employees do not face discrimination in accordance with the protections afforded by applicable law, including<br>discrimination based on race, nationality or social origin, colour, sex, religion, gender identity, disability or sexual orientation; |
| --- | --- |
| • | condemning child labour; |
| --- | --- |
| • | rejecting forced or compulsory labour; |
| --- | --- |
| • | maintaining safe and healthy workplaces; and |
| --- | --- |
| • | providing employees with appropriate rest and leisure time. |
| --- | --- |
We publish a Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement setting out the steps Magna has taken to address the risk of slavery and human trafficking in our operations and supply chain. The statement can be found in the “Financial Reports & Public Filings” section of our website, at www.magna.com.
Our commitment to our employees continued to garner industry and customer recognition, as shown on Page A-8.
3.2.2 Collective Rights
We are committed to providing workplace environments that promote the dignified, ethical, and respectful treatment of our employees, as reflected in the standards contained in our Global Labour Standards Policy and our Code.
2026 Annual Information Form | A-47
Our Global Labour Standards Policy articulates our respect for employees’ right to associate freely and to choose for themselves whether or not they wish to be represented by a third party in accordance with local laws. We operate both unionized and non- unionized facilities across multiple regions, as well as having facilities where other forms of representative structures exist, such as works councils, and/or where industry-wide tariff agreements apply. In our core regions such as the Americas, Europe and Asia, we have a number of locations formally represented by trade unions, where local collective bargaining agreements are in place. Where such arrangements exist, we strive to maintain positive and productive business relationships with these organizations, resulting in competitive industry agreements.
Employees in our unrepresented facilities benefit from a system of progressive and people-focused human resources policies, coupled with consultative concern resolution programs which include our Fairness Committee, Employee Advocates, Employee Opinion Survey, Open- Door Process and our Hotline, all designed to proactively address individual and workplace issues in a constructive and respectful manner.
3.2.3 Magna’s Open-Door Process
Magna maintains a comprehensive Open-Door Process, whereby employees are empowered to bring issues and concerns forward to leadership at all levels of the organization, without fear of retaliation. This process enables management and employees to collaborate on resolving workplace issues together. This process includes regular use of Employee Opinion Surveys, focus groups, and local continuous improvement action plans, focused on maintaining a positive workplace environment.
As a part of our Open-Door Process, we maintain Fairness Committees in many of our North American and European manufacturing facilities, as well as at various manufacturing facilities in India and China. These Fairness Committees enable employees to have many of their concerns resolved by a peer review committee comprised of both management and fellow employees. Most of our North American manufacturing facilities also have an Employee Advocate who works with our employees and management to help address any concerns that arise in the workplace quickly and in accordance with our Employee’s Charter, Global Labour Standards Policy and Operational Principles.
3.2.4 Leadership Development / Talent Management
Our talent management strategy is closely aligned with our current business objectives and the ongoing transformation in the automotive industry. Recognizing the increasing need for a lean and digitally adept workforce, we focus on building such an employee base through targeted attraction and recruitment, professional development and succession planning.
Central to our talent management strategy is our continuously evolving Leadership Development System designed to identify, train and develop future leaders with the skills and expertise needed to manage a rapidly transforming, complex, global business. This development framework is built on best practices in the business and manufacturing environment that includes multiple levels of programs, including our flagship Operations Management Accelerator (“OMA”) program.
The OMA program is designed to cultivate a talent pool of future General Managers and Assistant General Managers for our Divisions. The year-long program integrates instruction from university faculty with practical learning opportunities led by Magna’s leadership team. Participants, who must meet stringent acceptance criteria, engage in comprehensive modules covering finance, manufacturing, and supply chain management, each consisting of virtual, in-person, and self-directed study components. The program also includes immersive in-plant learning sessions, providing hands-on experience in real-world settings. A key feature of the OMA program is the capstone project, where participants address a realistic problem or opportunity within their Division, ensuring that their learning is applied to tangible business challenges.
3.2.5 EmployeeTraining & Learning Ecosystem

In addition to the foregoing training, we continue to promote a culture of sustainability through dedicated training that focused on our sustainability objectives and priorities. The Sustainability training was completed by ~4,800 employees in 2025. We have also developed a carbon literacy webinar series to help educate Magna employees on carbon emissions as detailed in Section 1.3. In addition, we conducted dedicated Scope 3 emissions accounting training to help Magna Divisions globally better understand how Scope 3 emissions are quantified and calculated so that they can better understand strategies for reducing such emissions.
All new employees are required to receive compliance on-boarding training on the Code and related topics as part of their on- boarding process when joining the company and all new people managers receive advanced ethics training. All customer- facing employees receive advanced antitrust training upon hiring.
Based on the training modules currently tracked in our Learning Management System, Magna employees completed over 487,593 hours of training in 2025 (an average of 8.3 hours per tracked employee). However, the vast majority of training provided to Magna employees occurs at the plant level through Operating Group/Divisional personnel or members of Magna’s departmental subject matter experts. Although this plant-level training is not currently tracked globally, we aim to improve such tracking going forward as more of our training activities are centrally recorded in our Learning Management System. This plant- level training generally consists of, among other topics:

3.3 Diversity and Inclusion in our Workplaces
Magna is committed to attracting, retaining and developing under-represented talent across the globe. In order to pursue this commitment, Magna’s identified strategic pillars for Diversity and Inclusion (“D&I”) initiatives are reviewed and approved by our Executive Management through the Chairs of our Diversity and Inclusion Council. Periodic updates are provided to the Board of Directors about how the company is progressing the D&I strategy.
Our key D&I priorities are accelerating diversity, cultivating an inclusive culture, ensuring talent fairness, and being a company of choice as discussed below:
3.3.1 Accelerating Diversity
Our Executive Management continues to reinforce the importance of an inclusive and diverse organization. We continue to roll out facilitated workshops to all leadership levels to better equip leaders with tools and resources to drive inclusive behaviour. We have provided D&I training for employees and have made various D&I tools and resources available for all employees. To further advance our D&I progress, we have implemented three employee-led, volunteer resource communities: Race & Ethnicity (EDGE); LGTBQ+ and Allies (PRIDE); and the Women’s eXchange. These communities support the execution of Magna’s D&I strategy, raise awareness and help foster a more inclusive environment. The employee resource communities provide, among other things, opportunities for mentoring and career development.
3.3.2 Cultivating an Inclusive Culture
All of our employees are critical stakeholders in our business. We also recognize that the diversity of our employees helps us drive operational excellence. The principle of Fair Treatment, outlined in our Employee’s Charter — one which we reinforce
A-50 | 2026 Annual Information Form
through employee meetings, training and communications — has been a key element in fostering an inclusive workplace at Magna. Any employee who feels that we are not living up to the principles of the Charter can seek redress through the Magna Hotline.
We seek to abide by all applicable labour and employment laws, including those prohibiting discrimination and harassment and those providing for the reasonable accommodation of differences. We are committed to providing equal employment and career advancement opportunities, without discrimination based on sex, race, ethnic background, religion, disability or any other personal characteristic protected by law. This is addressed in our Code of Conduct documentation and training, which all Magna employees must complete. Building on the foundation of awareness, education, and constructive dialogue established at Magna, we continue to prioritize inclusion programs to support our employees along additional dimensions of diversity.
3.3.3 Talent Fairness
Our goal is to provide all employees with equal opportunities to join and grow in the organization, as promised in our Employee’s Charter. To drive progress, we seek to embed relevant inclusion practices through our talent attraction and management processes. As part of our succession planning program, we continue to identify high-potential candidates and equip them with development plans to support their progression to advanced roles. We have put in place guidance for talent and succession discussions with the goal of providing succession-eligible candidates receive proper focus. We also provide relevant D&I training for employees and have made various D&I tools and resources available.
3.3.4 Company of Choice
We are focused on being a company of choice and key contributor to society, communities and the planet. We are advancing our initiatives in this area through strategic partnerships, and by working with D&I thought leaders, associations and non-profit organizations dedicated to the advancement of women, racial minorities, and employees of diverse backgrounds; promotion of inclusive work cultures; as well as strategies and actions to address the needs of a diverse workforce. These partnerships help us to benchmark our activities and progress, as well as provide insight into best practices and emerging topics for our D&I agenda. Recognizing the importance of improving gender diversity within key technical career streams and to support the development of the next generation of the talent in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM), we have formed strategic partnerships with a number of organizations that promote gender diversity in technical career streams. Our current strategic partnerships include: Automotive Women’s Alliance; Build a Dream; Centre for Automotive Diversity, Inclusion & Advancement (CADIA); Catalyst; FIRST Robotics — Girls in STEM; her Career; Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE); Indspire; Inforum; KnowledgeStart; National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE); Queen’s University Engineering Society; Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers; Society of Women Engineers (SWE); WISE (Women in Science and Engineering); and Women in Manufacturing. We also participate in various automotive advisory groups to help keep the focus on Diversity and Inclusion in the industry strong. We are leveraging the experience of organizations focused on inclusion so that Magna continues to be positioned as a company of choice.
3.3.5 Gender Diversity
We are continuing to progress our agenda to increase the number of women in Magna. On a global basis, 29.4% of the employees in our wholly owned operations are women. A total of approximately 9,523 employees in our wholly owned operations occupy critical roles with 2,043 of such employees, or 21.5% being women. While the percentage of women in our wholly owned operations remained relatively flat, women in critical roles increased by 250 bps compared to the previous year. Underrepresentation of women in our workforce is most pronounced in IT, operations, and product engineering career streams, which is a consistent trend throughout the automotive industry. We recognize that there are improvements to be made and we are pursuing strategies to accelerate the progression of women, in director and managerial level roles, and in our most critical operational and technical roles, where there is the greatest level of underrepresentation.
In addition, the Board as a whole continues to advocate for improved gender representation and other diversity in leadership and other critical roles, as well as STEM career streams. In addition to their strong advocacy, the female directors of the Board,
2026 Annual Information Form | A-51
currently representing 38% of our Board of Directors, have also sought opportunities to mentor and share their experiences with the company’s high-performing female employees. Recognizing the important example set by the Board with respect to its own composition, the Board maintains a Board Diversity Policy (located in the Board Charter). Consistent with the recommendations of the Canadian Coalition for Good Governance, gender parity is achieved if the balance between male and female directors ranges between 40% and 60% over a rolling three-year time frame. Assuming election of all Board nominees at Magna’s annual meeting of shareholders on May 4, 2026, the percentage of women on the Board will be 33% (40% three-year gender parity average as of 2025). In addition to the Board gender representation discussed above, 25% of nominees for election at Magna’s annual meeting of shareholders are diverse nominees (self-identifying as members of the LGBTQ+ community or as an underrepresented minority in their home country).

An employee who believes we have not fulfilled our promise to provide a safe and healthful working environment can seek redress through the Magna Hotline.
3.4.2 Ergonomics Program
Magna is committed to minimizing and eliminating ergonomics risk factors. A key program for supporting employee well-being is our ergonomics program which aims to reduce the risk of musculoskeletal injuries. Managed by each Division’s ergonomic committee and with the support and guidance of corporate ergonomists, the program regularly evaluates Division ergonomics against a set of established criteria.
3.5 Supply Chain Responsibility
Requirements for transparent, sustainable, and responsible supply chains are rapidly evolving. More rigorous laws and regulations have been, and continue to be, introduced in jurisdictions around the world. The evolving regulatory landscape includes more extensive obligations regarding due diligence, supply chain mapping, commodities/product tracing, and reporting.
Magna is committed to responsible and ethical sourcing in its supply chain, and aims to implement sustainable, long term sourcing strategies. Magna’s commitment is supported by its governance structure, comprehensive policy/contractual framework, supplier engagement activities, and supplier risk monitoring and analysis through live monitoring, supplier self-assessment questionnaires (“SAQs”), and where necessary, supplier audits.
Magna communicates the standards expected of its suppliers through a variety of mechanisms, including: supplier conferences/ roundtables; direct buyer interactions; correspondence with suppliers; our Corporate website and Supplier information portal;
2026 Annual Information Form | A-53
and corrective action plans generated from self-assessment questionnaires or audits we request suppliers to complete (as discussed in Section 3.5).
The corrective action plans address key sustainability areas, including company management, human rights and working conditions, health and safety, business ethics, environment, responsible supply chain management, and responsible sourcing of raw materials. In 2025, 7% of our assessed suppliers engaged in corrective actions.
Magna actively engages suppliers through targeted ESG awareness and capacity-building initiatives. We host webinars and launched training sessions focused on SAQ completion and ESG compliance. These programs aim to strengthen suppliers understanding of sustainability requirements and improve overall performance.
We also continue to support and participate in industry efforts to develop common standards relating to business ethics, environmental standards, working conditions and employee rights. We will continue to engage with our suppliers to raise awareness of the importance of sustainability and compliance with regulatory standards and compliance with regulatory standards and compliance with regulatory standards and Magna’s core values. For example, we are a member company of the German automotive industry dialogue (“Branchendialog Automobilindustrie”), a multi-stakeholder forum consisting of relevant participants from the automotive industry as well as civil society with expertise on human rights risks in automotive supply and value chains. As an active member of SP, Magna contributes to the development and dissemination of industry-aligned resources that support suppliers in meeting evolving sustainability expectations. Notably, SP’s recent collaboration with the MEMA Center for Sustainability has resulted in the release of practical tools and educational materials designed to streamline supplier sustainability reporting and engagement, reducing administrative burdens and promoting consistent disclosure practices. Magna has also played a leadership role in the creation of the SP Energy Optimization Playbook, which provides step-by-step guidance and real-world case studies, including examples from Magna facilities, to empower manufacturers in identifying, prioritizing, and implementing impactful energy optimization projects. These collective efforts, developed through SP’s cross-industry working groups, reinforce Magna’s commitment to fostering transparency, efficiency, and measurable progress on environmental objectives throughout our supply chain.
3.5.1Supply Chain Management
Our supply chain management system is designed to to improve the supply chain resilience; enhance transparency into our supply chain; improve supplier sustainability performance; and meet regulatory requirements.
General
Magna’s supply chain management group focuses on a number of elements that we believe are integral to world class supply chain management, such as: standardized supplier quality and delivery performance ratings; specific roles and responsibilities; processes and standards; global training; and risk management. The supplier quality and delivery performance ratings have been established to help optimize business award decisions. We use cross-functional sourcing teams, in the majority of our sourcing decisions, to help support compliance with our internal standards when we place new business within our supply base. In order to promote awareness of the key elements of our supply chain risk management program, including the requirements in our Supplier Code, we provide global on-line training on an ongoing basis to internal purchasing employees.
We continue to increase digitization of our supply chain management, including focusing on spend analytics and online transportation risk tracking, as well as electronic tagging and tracing of certain assets.
As part of our strategy to improve sustainability performance across our supply chain, we are developing an ESG component for our program award criteria, as discussed under “Supplier Reviews” below.

Risk Assessment, Monitoring and Supply Chain Mapping
We identify, evaluate and prioritize risks based on the likelihood of the risk occurring, severity of the impact should a risk materialize, and the extent of our contribution to the risk, if any. Within our supply chain, prioritization of certain risks may also include considerations relating to our proximity to the risk and our ability to influence mitigation of the risk by a supplier. Our analysis and prioritization of supply chain risk incorporates a number of inputs, including: expertise from internal function experts; information and trends derived from due diligence tools we utilize, such as our third-party live alert risk monitoring platform; regulatory areas of focus, including regulations/enforcement activity aimed at specific entities, geographies and/or commodities; supplier-specific information from SAQs and audits, and public sources, such as independent reports or databases (i.e., human rights indices).
Our risk analysis and due diligence activities are informed by global or industry standards and frameworks, including: the UN Guiding Principles for Business and Human Rights, the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the OECD Due Diligence Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises, the ILO conventions/declarations referenced in our Global Labour Standards; and the AIAG/Drive Sustainability’s Automotive Industry Guiding Principles to Enhance Sustainability Performance in the Supply Chain (its Automotive Sustainability Practical Guidance).
We have implemented a third party supply chain risk monitoring and mapping tool (Prewave), which monitors and provides real- time alerts affecting supply chains covering 34 categories, including: human rights risks (i.e. forced/child labour), operational
2026 Annual Information Form | A-55
issues, financial or legal issues, CSR incidents (i.e., environmental incidents, poor working conditions), industrial accidents, product incidents (i.e., recalls), cyber risks, natural disasters, governance risks (i.e., corporate wrongdoing), labour unrest, and political unrest. Through the tool’s supply chain mapping capabilities, Magna is able to conduct a periodic analysis of specific risk areas through bottom-up mapping over and above the day-to-day live supply chain risk monitoring conducted through the platform. In 2025 we expanded on our 2024 activities and implemented standard routines for supply chain mapping. We carried out a specific supplier engagement activity for entities identified on the UFLPA Entity list and we furthermore expanded our supply chain mapping activities and initiated mapping related to identify potential exposure to U. S. “Country Group D” list. Mapping activities covering key commodities (e. g. semiconductors) continued in 2025 and rare earth metals were included in the analysis during the year.
To evaluate and improve the sustainability performance of our suppliers, Magna regularly conducts sustainability assessments on suppliers targeted by Prewave. During the reporting period, 8,047 suppliers were targeted for assessment, with 100% having a sustainability assessment. These assessments help identify strengths and areas for improvement, supporting our continuous improvement approach.
Supplier Reviews
Magna’s review process for production suppliers is designed to assess their overall operational, performance and financial health. We use a scorecard to provide ongoing monitoring and assessment of suppliers, which tracks (among other things) whether suppliers have certain industry- recognized environmental and health and safety certifications, such as ISO 14001 and ISO 18001. In 2025 the supplier review scorecard was enhanced to include a mandatory S-ESG rating. This fourth rating pillar establishes key ESG elements as a minimum requirement for future business with Magna. The S-ESG rating is based on supplier scores received in the industry-aligned third party SAQs (discussed in detail below) and MMRs for human rights and working conditions. The S-ESG assesses our suppliers’ environmental impact and commitment to sustainability, including evaluating suppliers’ labour practices, human rights, and occupational health and safety standards, as well as corporate governance structures, compliance with global regulations, and responsible supply chain management. The S-ESG score is mandatory for all existing and potential new direct material suppliers.
Additionally, in 2025, disclosure of environmental performance (such as emissions, waste and water consumption) will become an essential prerequisite for participation in RFQ processes and awarding of future business. This represents a critical step to enhancing our Scope 3 emissions inventory and facilitating Magna’s activities for reducing Scope 3 emissions in order to meet our near-term and net-zero science-based targets.
Suppliers that do not achieve a sufficient S-ESG rating, or with deviations or violations are required to undertake a number of steps, including, among other things: providing additional information to Magna to verify findings; participation in an onsite audit; and/or implementing corrective action plan/timeline for improvement. A deviation from the MMRs can result in termination of the supply relationship. No production suppliers were terminated in 2025 as a result of a violation of working conditions or human rights.
Assessing and Auditing Suppliers
In support of our new S-ESG rating, we invited approximately 5,800 suppliers (representing approximately 80% procurement spend) to complete the NQC SAQ, a third party supply chain management and auditing organization that collects and analyzes supplier responses and grades their overall performance via their SupplierAssurance platform. The self-assessment questionnaires (currently SAQ 5.0) is a standard automotive industry sustainability questionnaire developed by global OEMs. The SAQ which Magna Divisions also complete for requesting OEM customers annually, requires information, including documentation, relating to several topics, including, among other things: sustainability management; working conditions and human rights; health and safety; business ethics; environmental compliance; supplier management; and responsible sourcing of raw materials, as well as questions specifically addressed to compliance with specific legislative requirements, such as the German Act. In addition to requiring supplier completion of the SAQ, each of Magna’s own operating Divisions complete the self-assessment.
A-56 | 2026 Annual Information Form
In addition to the SAQ scoring process, all of Magna’s production suppliers are included in our Prewave third party risk monitoring and mapping tool. Each supplier has a risk scorecard that includes an overall rating and ratings for each of the 34 categories monitored in the platform.
With respect to audits, Magna is a founding member of the Responsible Supply Chain Initiative (“RSCI”), an association of automotive OEMs, Tier 1 Suppliers and industry associations, which has established a standardized assessment program for due diligence in the automotive supply chain relating to social compliance, occupational safety and environmental protection. Thirteen (13) suppliers completed the full RSCI initial audit in 2025. Three suppliers received an Interim Label, one supplier achieved a Full Label, and the remaining suppliers did not qualify for a label. Magna is working closely with these suppliers to implement and close corrective action plans and to conduct the follow-up audits throughout 2026. Magna expects to continue growing its audit program in 2026, with a focus on key commodities and critical geographies.
Supplier Grievance Mechanism
We maintain a whistleblower mechanism, the Magna Hotline (discussed in detail in section 4.1.3). The Hotline includes a separate submission tier for our supply chain. Following investigation, corrective measures to eliminate and remediate would be initiated if a violation is confirmed.
3.5.2 Responsible Materials
Magna is focused on responsible raw materials sourcing, and management of substances of concern to comply with applicable regulations, meet customer and industry specifications, and reduce environmental and social risks associated with raw materials extraction/processing. To this end, we have implemented due diligence and reporting practices aimed at meeting obligations relating to responsible sourcing of raw materials, as well as responsible management of chemical substances in our products.
Raw Materials Compliance
Conflict Minerals / ExtendedMinerals
Pursuant to U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules, we are required to report annually regarding our due diligence activities relating to “conflict minerals” (tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold, also known as 3TG) that originated in the Democratic Republic of Congo or an adjoining country. Consistent with the approach taken by our customers, suppliers and other industries, we are engaged in an annual process of determining whether any products which we make or buy contain such “conflict minerals”. We request all relevant suppliers to report to us using a standardized Conflict Minerals Reporting Template, including identifying smelters and refiners of 3TG in our supply chain. Our suppliers are requested to cascade the same requirement throughout their supply chain.
We have designed our conflict minerals activities in accordance with the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas. In 2025, our conflict minerals program was enhanced with the introduction of a new process supported by the Magna Conflict Minerals to improve supplier response rates and further enhance our red flag analysis and remediation capabilities. Our activities with respect to extended minerals currently include collecting information regarding Cobalt and Mica. Our Extended Minerals diligence program has been extended in 2025 to include collecting information regarding copper, natural graphite, lithium and nickel.
2026 Annual Information Form | A-57
The full details of our Conflict Minerals Program can be found in our latest conflict minerals report, available on our website www.magna.com and on the SEC’s EDGAR website (www.sec.gov/edgar). We continue to engage with our suppliers to increase awareness, and accuracy, of “conflict minerals” reporting requirements and, through our membership in the Responsible Minerals Initiative (“RMI”), support continuing cross-industry efforts to identify and validate conflict-free smelters and refiners.
E.U. Deforestation Regulation (“EUDR”)
The EUDR aims to prevent products consumed within the E.U. from contributing to deforestation or forest degradation globally. The Regulation prohibits the placing on the E.U. market, the supply and export of certain raw materials and related products unless such commodities/products are “deforestation-free”, and comply with the relevant legislation of the production country. For Magna, the most relevant commodities/products covered by the EUDR are leather and natural rubber, as well as, potentially timber.
Magna is currently working on implementation of systems and processes aimed at compliance with the EUDR’s stringent risk assessment, due diligence, traceability and reporting requirements which become effective December 2026.
Responsible Management of Substances in Products
REACH and Other Chemicals Legislation
Magna has implemented a comprehensive program aimed at compliance with the E.U.’s REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals) regulation and other global chemicals regulation, including the E.U. End-of-Life Vehicle Directive, the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants, US Toxic Substances Control Act (TOSCA), the Canadian Chemicals Management Plan, Japan Chemical Substances Control Law, US Proposition 65). This program focuses on identifying and managing the use of chemicals in products and processes, and ensuring that they meet the stringent requirements set forth by chemicals management regulations. Magna’s approach to chemicals management, includes risk assessments, continuous monitoring, and collaboration with suppliers and OEM customers for the safe use of chemicals in automotive products.
PFAS
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (“PFAS”) (also known as “forever chemicals”) are a group of approximately 10,000 synthetic chemicals with unique properties (low friction, heat resistance, chemical/fuel stability, low permeation and durability). Such chemicals do not break down easily, and stay in the environment for long periods of time. As a result, they can pose significant risks to human health and ecosystems. PFAS regulations vary significantly across different countries, reflecting diverse approaches to managing the risks associated with these persistent chemicals. Some jurisdictions, such as Canada has imposed stringent reporting requirements for PFAS with a view to establishing baseline data to support future regulatory actions. Other jurisdictions such as the US and Europe have, or have proposed, regulations banning or phasing-out PFAS in certain products. In addition to compliance with existing reporting obligations, Magna currently monitors current and emerging PFAS regulations, and is developing tools and processes to allow our Operating Groups to assess and address the potential impact of PFAS regulations on its product portfolio and to commence substitution activities in cooperation with our supply chain, where alternatives are available.
3.5.3 Supplier Diversity

4.4 Data Security, Cybersecurity andPrivacy
4.4.1 Enterprise Cybersecurity
Our enterprise cybersecurity strategy is developed and executed by our Information Security, Risk and Compliance Department (“ISRC”) which ultimately reports to our EVP and Chief Digital and Information Officer. The strategy has been designed using guiding principles from our Code as well as enterprise risk considerations and aligns with industry standards including the National Institute of Standards and Technology, relevant ISO standards, and applicable customer requirements. Our Board has risk oversight responsibility for Magna’s enterprise IT/information security systems and cybersecurity program and receives reports regarding the program at periodic meetings.
Our cybersecurity initiatives are based on five key considerations:
| • | Identify — develop an organizational understanding of cybersecurity risk to systems, people, assets, data, and<br>capabilities; |
|---|---|
| • | Protect — develop and implement appropriate safeguards against cybersecurity risk and continue to deliver critical<br>services; |
| --- | --- |
| • | Detect — internal and external 24 × 7 for malicious activites, including identity/data theft, malware, etc;<br> |
| --- | --- |
| • | Respond — our Security Operations Centre has appropriate incident response plans/processes, capabilities, resources<br>and expertise to respond to detected threats; and |
| --- | --- |
| • | Recover — our Security Operations Centre works with IT operations to recover as quickly as possible by rebuilding<br>affected systems and restoring data back-ups. |
| --- | --- |
We are committed to working with our customers and other stakeholders so that appropriate cybersecurity standards and requirements are continually monitored and implemented as required. In addition, we aim to comply with all governmental rules and regulations regarding cybersecurity or privacy regulations (such as those discussed in Section 4.4.3), which directly affect cybersecurity requirements. Our selection process for third party (e.g. Cloud-based) services includes a due diligence approach so that such services are evaluated using industry standard security assurance approaches to assess and address the risks associated with third party technology services and aligns with our overall approach to cybersecurity.
We regularly evaluate and adjust our information security management strategy based on a variety of considerations including risk assessments, continuous monitoring and periodic independent cybersecurity maturity evaluations. This enables the ISRC to identify and prioritize responses to residual risk arising from changes to our business or the ever-changing threat landscape. Magna has developed and implemented centralized enterprise cybersecurity policies, compliance measures, as well as training and awareness programs designed to support execution of our cybersecurity strategy to minimize our exposure.
2026 Annual Information Form | A-65
Day-to-Day governance of cybersecurity over our shared global telecommunications and computer infrastructure is centralized under the ISRC. The ISRC facilitates identification of our risk exposures and mandates the implementation of appropriate security controls. We have processes in place for upgrading our IT systems, including patching and other protective measures, in a timely manner.
In alignment with our enterprise-wide commitment to safeguarding data, ensuring operational resilience, and supporting responsible technology adoption, we have introduced Magna’s new Responsible AI Policy and Framework. This policy reinforces our cybersecurity strategy by establishing clear standards for the ethical, secure, and transparent use of artificial intelligence across our global operations. As AI becomes an increasingly integral part of our digital ecosystem, these guidelines provide strong governance and oversight, respect for people, and robust protection of Magna’s information assets. The policy emphasizes responsible data handling, human accountability in all AI-supported decisions, and adherence to applicable laws and Magna policies, including confidentiality, data privacy, and intellectual-property requirements. Alongside secure use, the policy encourages innovation through approved AI tools while ensuring that employees are equipped with the training, resources, and governance structure needed to apply AI safely and effectively. By embedding these principles into our cybersecurity and risk- management practices, Magna supports a culture of continuous learning, secure adoption of emerging technologies, and proactive management of AI-related risks.
4.4.2 Product-Embedded and Solution Software Cybersecurity
The ISRC facilitates industry standard processes and tooling for risk management for embedded software in Magna products. This standards-based approach assists our Operating Groups in continuously assessing their respective product cybersecurity risk and maturity. Our Divisions and Operating Groups are then able to determine appropriate cyber solutions that may be required. Our Technology Committee supports the Board through the committee’s risk oversight responsibility for Magna’s product-embedded or solution software cybersecurity.
4.4.3 Privacy
Magna is committed to preserving the privacy of our stakeholders in accordance with applicable laws. Our Code articulates our approach to the privacy of our employees and protection of their personal information. We only collect, use and disclose personal information for legitimate business or employment purposes, as required by law, or with an individual’s consent. In addition, like any other asset, confidential information which includes trade secrets and proprietary information is a valuable part of our business and we aim to safeguard it.
Magna has established a data privacy organization and program in our divisions in the Europe, Morocco, Brazil, Thailand, China, and India. The program includes the issuance of policies and procedures, employee training, gap assessments and the implementation of a data privacy management system.
In addition to our general privacy and confidentiality commitments, our Global Data Privacy Policy (the “Privacy Policy”) has been established. The Privacy Policy is designed to guide our compliance with, among others, the E.U. General Data Protection Regulation, China’s Personal Information Protection Law, the Brazilian General Data Protection Law, Thailand’s Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) and India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act.
The Privacy Policy sets out general data protection principles, responsibilities of data controllers and processors, circumstances under which personal data can be transferred, rights of data subjects and actions that must be taken in case of data breach, as well as addressing data retention periods. The Privacy Policy is accompanied by a variety of formal and comprehensive procedures, developed and overseen by our Compliance Council.
A training program has been implemented to address general data privacy awareness for all employees and provide more specific rules for those employees who are handling personal data as part of their daily work. Finally, those employees across our organization responsible for handling privacy requests by data subjects or for addressing data breaches have been provided with the tailored training and resources to carry out such responsibilities.
Furthermore, Magna continues to monitor legislative and regulatory developments in the fast-changing data privacy landscape in other regions with Magna operations.

In connection with our efforts to promote energy efficiency, we developed the energy reduction targets as detailed in Section 2.2.3 above.
5.1.2 Emissions
Energy consumed can be converted to CO2 emissions based on regional conversion factors. In order to help us and our stakeholders better assess trends related to the emissions we generate, we track emissions “intensity” on the basis of total sales, employee headcount and aggregate square footage of our facilities and offices. These intensity metrics assist us in determining whether we are becoming more efficient by normalizing emissions on a per dollar of sales, per employee and per square footage basis. The raw data for Scope1&2 emissions, together with intensity metrics are set out below. Magna adheres to the GHG Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard (“GHG Protocol”) for its Scope 1 and 2 reporting. Magna adheres to the GHG Protocol Corporate Value Chain (Scope 3) Standard and guidance from the SBTi for its Scope 3 reporting. We use commonly accepted emission factors such as those available from the GHG Protocol, IEA, EPA, including its eGrid database, United Kingdom Department for Energy Security and Net-Zero, ecoinvent and CEDA (Comprehensive Environmental Data Archive), as well as other local or regional references. Our Scope 1 and 2 emissions data is verified annually by an independent third party verification firm.

5.4 Product Safety
Magna is at risk for product warranty, product liability and recall costs, and is currently experiencing increased customer pressure to assume greater warranty responsibility. Certain customers seek to impose partial responsibility for warranty costs where the underlying root cause of a product or system failure cannot be determined. For most types of products, we only account for existing or probable product warranty claims. However, for certain complete vehicle assembly, powertrain systems and electronics contracts, Magna also records an estimate of future warranty-related costs based on the terms of the specific customer agreements and/or Magna’s warranty experience. Product liability and recall provisions are established based on Magna’s best estimate of the amounts necessary to settle existing claims, which typically take into account: the number of units that may be returned; the cost of the product being replaced; labour to remove and replace the defective part; and the customer’s administrative costs relating to the recall. Where applicable, such provisions are booked net of recoveries from sub-suppliers and along with related insurance recoveries. Due to the uncertain nature of the net costs, actual product liability costs could be materially different from our best estimates of future costs. In 2025, our warranty expense (net) increased by $10 million compared to 2024. See Note 16 of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, which have been filed on SEDAR+ www.sedarplus.ca and are on Magna’s website ( www.magna.com).
For a description of our activities relating to quality and end user safety, see Section 4.2.
5.5 Fuel Efficiency
Our product strategy, which is discussed in “Our Business & Strategy — Our Corporate Strategy” of our AIF, includes as a core element the supply of product solutions which support our customers’ objectives of increased fuel efficiency and reduced vehicle CO2 emissions.
We are currently examining the requirements using the E.U. Taxonomy for environmentally sustainable economic activities, in connection with upcoming reporting obligations under the E.U. CSRD reporting regime. Our preliminary analysis indicates that the potentially relevant categories under the E.U. Taxonomy are: (i) 3.18: “Manufacture, repair, maintenance, retrofit, reuse and
2026 Annual Information Form | A-69
upgrade of mobility components for zero-emission personal mobility aids”. This would include components we produce that are “essential for providing and improving the environmental performance of the vehicle”, namely our electrified powertrains produced by our Magna Powertrain operating Group. Our high voltage portfolio covers the entire range for pure electric vehicles, from single components to complete systems — from eAxles and e-Drive transmissions up to highly integrated e-Drives; (ii) 3.3: “Production of low-carbon technologies for transport”, which could include complete Electric Vehicle assembly by our Magna Steyr operating Group; and (iii) 3.4: “Manufacture of batteries”, which could include manufacture of respective components such as battery casings/enclosures via our body and chassis group. Our current efforts are concentrated on evaluating eligibility and alignment for the three activities above, which represent the most material aspects of our sustainability impact.
5.6 Materials Sourcing
The SASB Auto Parts Standard identifies critical materials as defined by the U.S. National Research Council (NRC) of which cobalt, magnesium, tantalum and tungsten are most relevant to our products. We do not purchase such materials in their raw form, however, they may be present in components and sub-assemblies that we purchase. Our key purchased raw materials are steel, resin and aluminum, and our key purchased components include: stampings, electronics, chips, molded parts, die casting, forging, coverstock, and wire harnesses. See the discussion in “Description of the Business — Manufacturing & Engineering — Key Components and Raw Materials” of our AIF.
We address strategic risks regarding critical materials with more limited supply and key commodities/raw materials in a number of ways, including: diversification of suppliers; carrying excess inventory, where appropriate; and, designing and engineering our products to minimize the use of scarce/limited materials, where not constrained by customer specifications.
We are a member of the Aluminum Stewardship Initiative (“ASI”), and six of our Divisions have received certification under ASI’s Performance Standard, which supports responsible aluminium supply chains by among other things: providing a common standard for assessing ESG performance in the aluminium value chain, and establishing requirements that can be independently audited to provide objective evidence for meeting the criteria for certification, including product design, life cycle assessments, management of process scrap, and recycling of products at end-of-life. Additionally we are exploring certification against the ASI Chain of Custody standard, which represents a higher level of commitment, and we are part of Catena-X, a collaborative initiative aimed at implementing standardized processes for sustainable materials across our supply chain.
With respect to reputational risk related to critical materials, we maintain a conflict minerals program, including an annual process of determining whether any of our products contain conflict minerals, and through our membership in the RMI supporting continuing cross-industry efforts to identify conflict-free smelters and refiners. We also report to requesting OEM customers with respect to Cobalt and Mica.
5.7 Competitive Behaviour
Magna’s policy is to comply with all applicable laws, including antitrust and competition laws and we have implemented a robust compliance training program to mitigate against the risk of an antitrust violation. Our Global Compliance Program is described in Section 4.5 — “Corporate Ethics and Compliance” of this Sustainability Report.
| SASB Accounting Metric(TR-AP-520a.1) | 2025 | 2024 | 2023 |

The occurrence of injuries and fatalities is a matter of significant concern for both management and the Board. The TOCC reviews the circumstances related to significant injuries and all fatalities of employees or third parties on Magna properties and reports same to the Board. There were no employee fatalities at Magna facilities in 2025.
5.9 Diversity
Diversity within our employee population is important to us and we strive to create an inclusive work environment throughout our company. As part of our efforts to promote an inclusive workplace, we track metrics relating to gender diversity in our workforce.
| Description | 2025 | 2024 | 2023 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Percentage of global employees who are<br>women (wholly owned operations) | 29.4% | 29.0% | 28.0% |

HIGHLIGHTS
INDUSTRY PRODUCTION ENVIRONMENT
| • | Global light vehicle production in 2025 rose 3% from 2024, with China increasing 7%, while North America and Europe<br>declined 2% and 1%, respectively. |
|---|
SALES & EARNINGS
| • | Total sales declined 2% to $42.0 billion in 2025 compared to 2024. The sales decline primarily reflects lower<br>vehicle production in North America and Europe, our two largest markets, the end of production on certain programs, lower engineering revenue, and net customer price concessions. These were partially offset by the launch of new programs, and the net<br>strengthening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar, among other factors. |
|---|---|
| • | Income from operations before income taxes decreased to $1.3 billion, from $1.5 billion last year, mainly as a<br>result of higher Other expense, net in 2025. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Adjusted EBIT increased to $2.4 billion, largely reflecting the continued productivity and efficiency improvements,<br>including the benefit of operational excellence initiatives and prior restructuring actions, higher equity income, higher supply chain costs in 2024, and lower investments in research, development and our new mobility business. These factors were<br>partially offset by lower net favourable commercial items, reduced earnings on lower sales, and unfavourable product mix, among other factors. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of sales^(1)^ increased 20 basis points<br>to 5.6%. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Diluted earnings per share were $2.93 and Adjusted diluted earnings per share^(1)^ were $5.73 in 2025. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Adjusted diluted earnings per share increased 6% from 2024, primarily reflecting higher Adjusted EBIT^(1)^, lower income attributable to non-controlling interests and fewer weighted average diluted shares outstanding during the year. |
| --- | --- |
CASH & CAPITAL DEPLOYMENT
| • | Cash generated from operating activities was $3.6 billion, largely unchanged from 2024. |
|---|---|
| • | We continued to invest in our business, including $1.3 billion for fixed assets and $499 million in investment<br>and other asset spending. |
| --- | --- |
| • | We returned $681 million to shareholders in 2025 through $544 million in dividends and $137 million in<br>share repurchases. |
| --- | --- |
| • | During the fourth quarter, our Board of Directors increased our quarterly dividend to $0.495 per share, our 16th<br>consecutive year of dividend increases. |
| --- | --- |
| • | We raised €575 million and $400 million in the form of<br>Senior Notes, largely to refinance $950 million in Senior Notes that were repaid in 2025. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Our Board of Directors approved a new Normal Course Issuer Bid [“NCIB”] to purchase up to 25.3 million<br>of our Common Shares. The NCIB will terminate no later than November 6, 2026. |
| --- | --- |
STRATEGIC UPDATES
| • | Utilizing our strong innovation pipeline, we won substantial additional business across our portfolio, including:<br> |
|---|---|
| • | high-voltage programs for hybrids and electric vehicles [“EVs”] with multiple customers;<br> |
| --- | --- |
| • | a large ADAS program with a North American-based global OEM; and |
| --- | --- |
| • | Gen 3 core seat structure awards across multiple China-based OEMs. |

| • | In addition, we: |
| --- | --- |
| • | won a 2025 Automotive News PACEpilot award for thermal sensing technology; |
| --- | --- |
| • | won a JD Power Platinum Plant Quality Award, acknowledging our quality and precision in producing the BMW Z4 at our<br>Complete Vehicles Assembly operation in Graz, Austria; |
| --- | --- |
| • | were named to Fortune’s “World’s Most Admired Companies” list for the 9^th^ consecutive year; and |

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements in this MD&A may constitute “forward-looking information” or “forward-looking statements” (collectively, “forward-looking statements”). Any such forward-looking statements are intended to provide information about management’s current expectations and plans and may not be appropriate for other purposes. Forward-looking statements may include financial and other projections, as well as statements regarding our future plans, strategic objectives or economic performance, or the assumptions underlying any of the foregoing, and other statements that are not recitations of historical fact. We use words such as “may”, “would”, “could”, “should”, “will”, “likely”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “assume”, “believe”, “intend”, “plan”, “aim”, “forecast”, “outlook”, “project”, “potential”, “estimate”, “target” and similar expressions suggesting future outcomes or events to identify forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements are based on information currently available to us and 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 in the circumstances. While we believe we have a reasonable basis for making any such forward-looking statements, they are not a guarantee of future performance or outcomes. Whether actual results and developments conform to our expectations and predictions is subject to a number of risks, assumptions, and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, and the effects of which can be difficult to predict, including the risk factors which are described later in this MD&A.
INDUSTRY TRENDS
Our business and operating results are dependent on light vehicle production by our customers in three key regions – North America, Europe, and China. While we supply systems and components to many original equipment manufacturers [“OEMs”] globally, we do not supply systems and components for every vehicle, nor is the value of our content consistent from one vehicle to the next. As a result, customer and program mix relative to market trends, as well as the value of our content on specific vehicle production programs, are also important drivers of our results.
Ordinarily, OEM production volumes are aligned with vehicle sales levels and thus affected by changes in such levels. Aside from vehicle sales levels, production volumes may be impacted by a range of factors, including: certain geopolitical factors, such as free trade arrangements and tariffs; OEM, supplier or sub-supplier disruptions; relative currency values; commodities prices; supply chains and infrastructure; labour disruptions and the availability and relative cost of skilled labour; regulatory frameworks; and other factors.
Overall vehicle sales levels are significantly affected by changes in consumer confidence levels, which may in turn be impacted by consumer perceptions and general trends related to the job, housing, and stock markets, as well as other macroeconomic and political factors. Other factors which may impact vehicle sales levels and thus production volumes include: vehicle affordability; interest rates and/or availability of credit; fuel and energy prices; relative currency values; considerations applicable to EVs, including EV range, charging infrastructure, electricity pricing, and availability of government rebates; and other factors.
We continue to implement a business strategy which is rooted in our best assessment as to the rate and direction of change in the automotive industry. Our short and medium-term operational success, as well as our ability to create long-term value through our business strategy, are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties which are discussed later in this MD&A.
| ^2^ | Number of employees includes approximately 144,000 employees at our wholly owned or controlled entities and<br>approximately 12,000 employees at operations accounted for under the equity method. |

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
In addition to results presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America [”U.S. GAAP”], this MD&A includes the use of Adjusted earnings before interest and taxes [“Adjusted EBIT”], Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of sales, Adjusted diluted earnings per share, Adjusted Return on Invested Capital, and Adjusted income taxes [collectively, the “Non-GAAP Measures”]. We believe these Non-GAAP financial measures provide additional information that is useful to investors in understanding our underlying performance and trends through the same financial measures employed by our management. Readers should be aware that Non-GAAP Measures have no standardized meaning under U.S. GAAP and accordingly may not be comparable to the calculation of similar measures by other companies. We believe that Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of sales, Adjusted diluted earnings per share, Adjusted Return on Invested Capital, and Adjusted income taxes provide useful information to our investors for measuring our operational performance as they exclude certain items that are not reflective of ongoing operating profit and facilitate a comparison with prior periods. The presentation of any Non-GAAP Measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our related financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures are presented together with the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, and a reconciliation to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, can be found in the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation” and “Income Taxes” section of this MD&A.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
AVERAGE FOREIGN EXCHANGE
| 2025 | 2024 | Change | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Canadian dollar equals U.S. dollars | **** | 0.716 | 0.730 | - 2% | ||
| 1 euro equals U.S. dollars | **** | 1.130 | 1.082 | + 4% | ||
| 1 Chinese renminbi equals U.S. dollars | **** | 0.139 | 0.139 | — |
The preceding table reflects the average foreign exchange rates between the most common currencies in which we conduct business and our U.S. dollar reporting currency.
The results of operations for which the functional currency is not the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars using the average exchange rates for the relevant period. Throughout this MD&A, reference is made to the impact of translation of foreign operations on reported U.S. dollar amounts where relevant.
Our results can also be affected by the impact of movements in exchange rates on foreign currency transactions (such as raw material purchases or sales denominated in foreign currencies). However, as a result of hedging programs employed by us, foreign currency transactions in the current period have not been fully impacted by movements in exchange rates. We record foreign currency transactions at the hedged rate where applicable.
Finally, foreign exchange gains and losses on revaluation and/or settlement of monetary items denominated in a currency other than an operation’s functional currency impact reported results. These gains and losses are recorded in selling, general and administrative expense.
LIGHT VEHICLE PRODUCTION VOLUMES
Our operating results are mostly dependent on light vehicle production in the regions reflected in the table below:
Light Vehicle Production Volumes (thousands of units)
| 2025 | 2024 | Change | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| North America | **** | 15,242 | 15,523 | - 2% | ||

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2025
SALES

Sales decreased 2%, or $826 million, to $42.01 billion for 2025 compared to $42.84 billion for 2024 primarily due to:
| • | lower light vehicle production in North America and Europe on certain ongoing programs, and the end of production of<br>certain programs, including the: |
|---|---|
| • | Chevrolet Malibu; |
| --- | --- |
| • | Ford Edge; and |
| --- | --- |
| • | Ford Escape; |
| --- | --- |
| • | lower engineering revenue, primarily in our Complete Vehicles segment; |
| --- | --- |
| • | net customer price concessions subsequent to 2024; |
| --- | --- |
| • | lower complete vehicle assembly volumes, primarily due to the end of production of the Jaguar I-Pace, and Jaguar E-Pace, partially offset by the launch of the Mercedes-Benz G-Class during<br>the fourth quarter of 2024; |
| --- | --- |
| • | the divestiture of certain operations in India during 2024, net of acquisitions, which decreased sales by<br>$112 million; and |
| --- | --- |
| • | net commercial items, which had an unfavourable impact on a year-over-year basis, including a resolution with Ford for a<br>product-related matter during the fourth quarter of 2025 as described in Note 24, “Contingencies”, of our consolidated financial statements. |
| --- | --- |
These factors were partially offset by:
| • | the launch of new programs during or subsequent to 2024, including the: |
|---|---|
| • | Mercedes-Benz G-Class;<br> |
| --- | --- |
| • | GMC Acadia, Chevrolet Traverse & Buick Enclave; |
| --- | --- |
| • | Skoda Elroq; |
| --- | --- |
| • | Audi A5; |
| --- | --- |
| • | Cadillac Vistiq; and |
| --- | --- |
| • | BMW 1-Series; |
| --- | --- |
| • | the net strengthening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar, which increased reported U.S. dollar sales by<br>$555 million; and |
| --- | --- |
| • | net customer recoveries, including for higher tariff costs incurred during the year. |
| --- | --- |
COST OF GOODS SOLD
| 2025 | 2024 | Change | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Material | $ | 25,595 | $ | 25,991 | $ | (396) |
| Direct labour | **** | 2,965 | 3,127 | (162) | ||
| Overhead | **** | 7,461 | 7,919 | (458) | ||
| Cost of goods sold | $ | 36,021 | $ | 37,037 | $ | (1,016) |
Cost of goods sold decreased $1.02 billion to $36.02 billion for 2025 compared to $37.04 billion for 2024, primarily due to:
| • | productivity and efficiency improvements, including the benefit of operational excellence initiatives and prior<br>restructuring actions; |
|---|---|
| • | lower material, direct labour, and overhead associated with lower production sales; |
| --- | --- |
| • | lower net engineering costs on lower engineering revenue, primarily in our Complete Vehicles segment;<br> |
| --- | --- |
| • | a decrease in material, direct labour, and overhead associated with lower sales in our Complete Vehicles segment, which<br>has a higher material content compared to our consolidated average; |
| --- | --- |
| • | the divestiture of certain operations in India during 2024, net of acquisitions; |
| --- | --- |
| • | net commercial items, which had a favourable impact on a year-over-year basis; and |
| --- | --- |
| • | higher supply chain costs in 2024, due in part to a supplier bankruptcy. |
| --- | --- |
4 Magna International Inc. AnnualReport 2025
These factors were partially offset by:
| • | the net strengthening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar, which increased reported U.S. dollar costs of goods<br>sold by $478 million; |
|---|---|
| • | higher net tariff costs; |
| --- | --- |
| • | higher production input costs net of customer recoveries, primarily for labour; and |
| --- | --- |
| • | higher pre-operating costs incurred at new facilities. |
| --- | --- |
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE [“SG&A”]
SG&A expense increased $160 million to $2.22 billion for 2025 compared to $2.06 billion for 2024, primarily as a result of:
| • | higher costs to accelerate our operational excellence initiatives; |
|---|---|
| • | the net strengthening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar, which increased SG&A by $39 million;<br> |
| --- | --- |
| • | higher incentive compensation, stock-based compensation, and employee profit sharing; |
| --- | --- |
| • | lower net transactional foreign exchange gains in 2025 compared to 2024; |
| --- | --- |
| • | a gain on sale of an equity method investment during 2024; and |
| --- | --- |
| • | higher pre-operating costs incurred at new facilities. |
| --- | --- |
These factors were partially offset by:
| • | lower investments in research, development and our new mobility business; |
|---|---|
| • | lower labour and benefit costs; |
| --- | --- |
| • | lower restructuring costs; |
| --- | --- |
| • | lower provisions against certain accounts receivable and other balances; and |
| --- | --- |
| • | divestitures, net of acquisitions during or subsequent to 2024. |
| --- | --- |
DEPRECIATION
Depreciation increased $37 million to $1.55 billion for 2025 compared to $1.51 billion for 2024, primarily due to increased capital deployed at new and existing facilities, including to support the launch of programs, and the net strengthening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar, which increased depreciation by $20 million. These factors were partially offset by the end of production of certain programs.
AMORTIZATION OF ACQUIRED INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Amortization of acquired intangible assets decreased $1 million to $111 million for 2025 compared to $112 million for 2024 primarily due to the impairment of acquired intangible assets at two European lighting facilities in our Power & Vision segment during 2024, partially offset by the net strengthening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar.
INTEREST EXPENSE, NET
During 2025, we recorded net interest expense of $209 million compared to $211 million for 2024. The $2 million decrease was primarily a result of lower interest expense on decreased short-term borrowings and term loan balances, each at lower interest rates. These factors were partially offset by interest incurred on a value added tax (“VAT”) reassessment; lower interest income on cash and investments due to reduced cash balances and lower interest rates; and higher net interest expense on Senior Notes issued during 2025, compared to Senior Notes repaid during 2025.
EQUITY INCOME
Equity income increased $42 million to $143 million for 2025 compared to $101 million for 2024, primarily as a result of:
| • | net commercial items, which had a favourable impact on a year-over-year basis; |
|---|---|
| • | earnings on higher sales and favourable product mix at certain equity-accounted entities; |
| --- | --- |
| • | lower launch costs at certain facilities; **** and |
| --- | --- |
| • | productivity and efficiency improvements at certain equity-accounted entities. |
| --- | --- |
These factors were partially offset by higher impairment charges on long-lived assets at certain equity-accounted entities.

| --- | --- |
During 2025, we concluded that indicators of impairment were present for finite-lived intangible assets and goodwill in the Electronics reporting unit within our Power & Vision segment. The conclusion was based on lower than expected sales and reduced volume projections, reflecting slower growth relative to expectations. Contributing factors include OEM delays in sourcing cycles as they reassess vehicle architectures, as well as a change in market dynamics in China. Accordingly, we undertook impairment analyses to determine the fair value of the finite-lived intangible assets and goodwill utilizing estimated discounted cash flows to derive fair values. Based on the analyses, the carrying value of the reporting unit’s finite-lived intangible assets exceeded fair value by $212 million, and the carrying value of net assets exceeded the fair value of the reporting unit by $379 million. As a result, we recorded a $591 million [$554 million after tax] non-cash impairment charge. The finite-lived intangible asset impairment charges included $158 million related to patents and technology, and $54 million related to customer relationship intangibles. The inputs utilized in the analyses are classified as Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy as defined in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement”, and primarily consist of expected revenues and costs, estimated production volumes, future growth rates and the appropriate discount rates (based on weighted average cost of capital).
During 2025, we also recorded an impairment charge of $24 million [$24 million after tax] on fixed assets and other assets at a European facility in our Body Exteriors & Structures segment.
During 2024, we recorded an impairment charge of $79 million [$79 million after tax] on fixed assets, right of use assets and intangible assets at two European facilities in our Power & Vision segment.

During 2024 we increased the valuation allowance against certain deferred tax assets in Austria, which was partially offset by the release of certain valuation allowances in Spain, Czechia and Brazil [“Adjustments to Deferred Tax Valuation Allowances”].
Excluding the tax effect on Other expense, net and Amortization of acquired intangible assets, as well as the Adjustments to Deferred Tax Valuation Allowances, our effective income tax rate decreased to 22.4% for 2025 compared to 22.7% for 2024, primarily due to the net favourable impact of foreign exchange adjustments recognized for U.S. GAAP purposes on a year-over-year basis, partially offset by a change in mix of earnings.
On July 4, 2025, the US enacted H.R. 1 “A bill to provide for reconciliation pursuant to Title II of H. Con. Res. 14”, commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. The impact on Magna’s consolidated financial statements was not material.
INCOME ATTRIBUTABLE TO NON-CONTROLLING INTERESTS
Income attributable to non-controlling interests was $54 million for 2025 compared to $87 million for 2024. The $33 million decrease was primarily due to lower income at our non-wholly owned operations in China, and the acquisition of the non-controlling 35% interest in a consolidated subsidiary during 2025.
NET INCOME ATTRIBUTABLE TO MAGNA INTERNATIONAL INC.
Net income attributable to Magna International Inc. was $829 million for 2025 compared to $1.01 billion for 2024. This $180 million decrease was as a result of a decrease in income from operations before income taxes of $234 million, partially offset by a decrease in income attributable to non-controlling interests of $33 million, and a decrease in income taxes of $21 million.

Diluted earnings per share was $2.93 for 2025, compared to $3.52 for 2024. The $0.59 decrease was substantially as a result of: lower net income attributable to Magna International Inc., as discussed above; partially offset by a decrease in the weighted average number of diluted shares outstanding. The decrease in the weighted average number of diluted shares outstanding was substantially due to the purchase and cancellation of Common Shares, subsequent to 2024, pursuant to our normal course issuer bid.
Other expense, net, and Amortization of acquired intangible assets, each after tax, negatively impacted diluted earnings per share by $2.80 in 2025 and $1.89 in 2024, respectively. Adjusted diluted earnings per share, as reconciled in the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation” section, was $5.73 for 2025, compared to $5.41 for 2024, an increase of $0.32.

ADJUSTED RETURN ON INVESTED CAPITAL

Adjusted Return on Invested Capital increased to 9.7% for 2025, compared to 9.5% for 2024, as a result of an increase in Adjusted After-tax operating profits, partially offset by higher Average Invested Capital.
Average Invested Capital increased $48 million to $18.92 billion for 2025, compared to $18.88 billion for 2024, primarily due to:
| • | average investment in operating lease<br>right-of-use assets in excess of average amortization expense on operating lease<br>right-of-use assets; |

Sales – Complete Vehicles
Sales decreased 7%, or $338 million, to $4.85 billion for 2025, compared to $5.19 billion for 2024, and complete vehicle assembly volumes decreased 1%. The decrease in volumes was primarily due to lower volumes with full-costed contractual arrangements partially offset by higher volumes with value-added contractual arrangements.
The decrease in sales is primarily a result of: lower complete vehicle assembly volumes, including the end of production of the Jaguar I-Pace and Jaguar E-Pace; and lower engineering revenue. These factors were partially offset by: the launch of the Mercedes-Benz G-Class during the fourth quarter of 2024; and an $184 million increase in reported U.S. dollar sales as a result of the strengthening of the euro against the U.S. dollar.

Adjusted EBIT increased $21 million to $151 million for 2025, compared to $130 million for 2024, and Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of sales increased to 3.1% from 2.5%. These increases were primarily due to:

Cash provided from operating activities
Comparing 2025 to 2024, cash provided from operating activities decreased by $36 million primarily as a result of lower changes in operating assets and liabilities, and lower net income, partially offset by higher items not involving current cash flows. The key components of this decrease were:
| • | a $394 million decrease in cash received from customers; |
|---|---|
| • | a $182 million increase in cash taxes; |
| --- | --- |
| • | a $65 million increase in cash paid for labour; and |

| • | lower dividends received from equity investments of $14 million. |
| --- | --- |
These factors were partially offset by a $615 million decrease in cash paid for materials and overhead.
Changes in operating assets and liabilities
During 2025, we generated $347 million from operating assets and liabilities primarily consisting of:
| • | a $792 million decrease in production and other receivables, including due to customer recoveries;<br> |
|---|---|
| • | a $186 million increase in other accrued liabilities; |

Financial liabilities decreased $379 million to $6.69 billion as at December 31, 2025, primarily as a result of the repayments of $300 million and $650 million in Senior Notes during the second and third quarters of 2025, respectively, repayment of $100 million and $300 million of the 3-year tranche and 5-year tranche Term Loan during the second and fourth quarter of 2025, respectively, and a decrease in notes outstanding under the U.S. commercial paper program. These decreases were partially offset by the issuance of €575 million and $400 million of Senior Notes during the second quarter of 2025, the strengthening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar, and renewing existing and entering into new operating lease agreements.
CASH RESOURCES
In 2025, our cash resources increased by $365 million to $1.6 billion, primarily as a result of cash provided from operating activities, partially offset by cash used for investing and financing activities. In addition to our cash resources at December 31, 2025, we had term and operating lines of credit totaling $4.0 billion, of which $3.9 billion was unused and available.
On March 21, 2025, we amended our $800 million 364-day syndicated revolving credit facility, including to extend the maturity date from June 24, 2025 to June 24, 2026. As of December 31, 2025, we have not borrowed any funds under this credit facility.
On March 21, 2025, we amended our $2.7 billion syndicated revolving credit facility, including to extend the maturity date from June 25, 2029 to June 25, 2030. As of December 31, 2025, we have no amounts outstanding under this credit facility.
On March 21, 2025, we amended our Term Loan to include an additional 3-year delayed draw tranche of $650 million with a draw expiration date of July 12, 2025. On July 8, 2025, we reduced the tranche amount from $650 million to $350 million and extended the draw expiration date to January 12, 2026. On January 12, 2026, the term loan facility expired with no amount drawn.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
A purchase obligation is defined as an agreement to purchase goods or services that is enforceable and legally binding on us and that specifies all significant terms, including: fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased; fixed, minimum or variable price provisions; and the approximate timing of the transaction. Consistent with our customer obligations, substantially all of our purchases are made under purchase orders with our suppliers which are requirements-based and accordingly do not specify minimum quantities. Other long-term liabilities are defined as long-term liabilities that are recorded on our consolidated balance sheet. Based on this definition, the following table includes only those contracts which include fixed or minimum obligations.
At December 31, 2025, we had contractual obligations requiring annual payments as follows:

Foreign Currency Activities
Our North American operations negotiate sales contracts with OEMs for payment in U.S. dollars, Canadian dollars and Mexican pesos. Materials and equipment are purchased in various currencies depending upon competitive factors, including relative currency values. Our North American operations use labour and materials which are paid for in U.S. dollars, Canadian dollars and Mexican pesos. Our Mexican operations generally use the U.S. dollar as the functional currency.
Our European operations negotiate sales contracts with OEMs for payment principally in euros. Our European operations’ material, equipment and labour are principally paid for in euros and U.S. dollars.
Our Asian operations negotiate sales contracts with OEMs for payment principally in Chinese renminbi. Our Asian operations’ material, equipment and labour are paid for principally in Chinese renminbi.
We employ hedging programs, primarily through the use of foreign exchange forward contracts, in an effort to manage our foreign exchange exposure, which arises when manufacturing facilities have committed to the delivery of products for which the selling price or material purchases have been quoted in foreign currencies and for labour in countries where the local currency is not a division’s functional currency. These commitments represent our contractual obligations to deliver products over the duration of the product programs, which can last a number of years. The amount and timing of the forward contracts will be dependent upon a number of factors, including anticipated production delivery schedules and anticipated production costs, which may be paid in the foreign currency. Despite these measures, significant long-term fluctuations in relative currency values, in particular a significant change in the relative values of the U.S. dollar, Canadian dollar, euro, Chinese renminbi or Mexican peso, could have an adverse effect on our profitability and financial condition (as discussed throughout this MD&A).

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIESAND CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2, “Significant Accounting Policies”, to our consolidated financial statements. The preparation of our audited consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, as of the date of our consolidated financial statements. These estimates and assumptions are based on our historical experience, and various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable in the circumstances. Since these estimates and assumptions are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty, actual results in these areas may differ significantly from our estimates.
We believe the following critical accounting policies and estimates affect the more subjective or complex judgements and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Management has discussed the development and selection of the following critical accounting policies with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, and the Audit Committee has reviewed our disclosure relating to critical accounting policies in this MD&A.
REVENUE RECOGNITION – COMPLETEVEHICLE ASSEMBLY ARRANGEMENTS
Our complete vehicle assembly contracts with customers are complex and often include promises to transfer multiple products and services, some of which may be implicitly contracted. Each good or service is evaluated to determine whether it represents a distinct performance obligation, and whether it should be characterized as revenue or as a reimbursement of costs incurred. The total transaction price is then allocated to the distinct performance obligations based on the expected cost plus a margin approach and recognized as revenue.
Additionally, as the terms of our complete vehicle assembly contracts with customers differ with respect to the ownership of components related to the assembly process, we must determine whether we are acting as principal in these arrangements, or acting as an agent in which case the revenue recognized would principally reflect the assembly fee.
Significant interpretation and judgement is sometimes required to determine the appropriate accounting for these contracts including: (i) combining contracts that may impact the allocation of the transaction price between products and services; (ii) determining whether performance obligations are considered distinct and are required to be accounted for separately or combined; and (iii) the allocation of the transaction price to each distinct performance obligation and determining when to recognize revenue.
IMPAIRMENT ASSESSMENTS – GOODWILL, LONG-LIVED ASSETS, AND EQUITY METHOD INVESTMENTS
We review goodwill at the reporting unit level for impairment in the fourth quarter of each year or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. Goodwill impairment is assessed by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit to the underlying carrying value of the reporting unit’s net assets, including goodwill. If a reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value, an impairment is recognized based on that difference. The fair value of a reporting unit is determined using the estimated discounted future cash flows of the reporting unit.
During the fourth quarter of 2025, we assessed goodwill impairment based on a comparison of each reporting unit’s fair value to the underlying carrying amount of net assets, including goodwill. Through this analysis, the Electronics reporting unit within our Power & Vision segment demonstrated indicators of impairment due to lower than expected sales and reduced volume projections. As a result, we recorded a $379 million non-cash impairment charge within Other expense, net. The impairment was measured under an income approach, utilizing discounted cash flows to derive the fair value of the reporting unit. The inputs utilized in the analyses were classified as Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy as defined in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement” and primarily consist of expected revenues and costs, estimated production volumes, future growth rates and appropriate discount rates (based on weighted average cost of capital). To the extent that future profitability continues to decline as compared to forecasted profitability or if adverse changes occur to key assumptions or other fair value measurement inputs, additional impairment of our goodwill could occur in the future. Refer to Note 4, “Other Expense, Net” of the notes to our consolidated financial statements for additional information.
In addition to our review of goodwill, we evaluate fixed assets and other long-lived assets for impairment whenever indicators of impairment exist. Indicators of impairment include the bankruptcy of a significant customer, or the early termination, loss, renegotiation of the terms of, significant volume decrease in, or delay in the implementation of, any significant production contract. If the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the assets, without interest charges, is less than the carrying amount of the assets, an asset impairment may be recognized in our consolidated financial statements. The amount of impairment to be recognized is calculated as the difference between the fair value and carrying amount of the asset.
Magna International Inc. AnnualReport 2025 23
During the fourth quarter of 2025, we concluded that there were indicators of impairment related to finite-lived intangible assets in the Electronics reporting unit within our Power & Vision segment due to lower than expected sales and declines in volume projections. As a result, we recorded a $212 million non-cash impairment charge within Other expense, net of which $158 million related to patents and technology and $54 million related to customer relationship intangibles. The impairment was measured based on a comparison of the asset’s fair value to the carrying value. Fair value of finite-lived intangible assets is determined using estimated discounted future cash flows. The inputs utilized in the analyses were classified as Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy as defined in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement” and primarily consist of expected revenues and costs, estimated production volumes, and appropriate discount rates (based on weighted average cost of capital). To the extent that future profitability continues to decline as compared to forecasted profitability or if adverse changes occur to key assumptions or other fair value measurement inputs, additional impairment of our finite-lived intangible assets could occur in the future. Refer to Note 4, “Other Expense, Net” of the notes to our consolidated financial statements for additional information.
As of December 31, 2025, we had equity method investments of $846 million. We monitor our investments for indicators of other-than-temporary declines in value on an ongoing basis in accordance with U.S. GAAP. If we determine that an other-than-temporary decline in value has occurred, we recognize an impairment loss, which is measured as the difference between the book value and the fair value of the investment. Fair value is generally determined using an income approach based on discounted cash flows.
We believe that the impairment assessments for goodwill, long-lived assets, and equity method investments contain “critical accounting estimates” because: (i) they are subject to significant measurement uncertainty and are susceptible to change, which could materially impact our assessment for fair value, as management is required to make forward-looking assumptions regarding the impact of improvement plans on current operations, in-sourcing and other new business opportunities, program pricing and cost assumptions on current and future business, the timing of new program launches and future forecasted production volumes, and the appropriate discount rates (based on a weighted average cost of capital ranging from 10.5% to 15.5% at December 31, 2025); and (ii) any resulting impairment loss could have a material impact on our consolidated net income and on the amount of assets reported in our consolidated balance sheet.
WARRANTY
We record product warranty costs, which include product liability and recall costs. Under most customer agreements, we only account for existing or probable claims on product default issues when amounts related to such issues are probable and reasonably estimable. For certain products, we record an estimate of future warranty-related costs based on the terms of the specific customer agreements and/or our warranty experience.
Product liability and recall provisions are established based on our best estimate of the amounts necessary to settle existing claims. These estimates typically require assumptions from management regarding: the number of units that may be returned; the cost of the product being replaced; labour to remove and replace the defective part; and the customer’s administrative costs relating to the recall. In making this estimate, judgement is also required as to the ultimate negotiated sharing of the cost between us, the customer and, in some cases a supplier. Where applicable, insurance recoveries related to such provisions are also recorded.
We monitor warranty activity on an ongoing basis and revise our best estimate as necessary. Due to the uncertainty and potential volatility of the factors contributing to developing estimates of the amounts necessary to settle existing claims, actual product liability costs could be materially different from our best estimate.
INCOME TAXES
The determination of tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws. Significant judgement and estimates are required in determining our provision for income taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits. We recognize tax benefits from uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such positions are then measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.
At December 31, 2025, we had gross unrecognized tax benefits of $191 million excluding interest and penalties, of which $113 million, if recognized, would affect our effective tax rate. The gross unrecognized tax benefits differ from the amount that would affect our effective tax rate due primarily to the impact of the valuation allowances on deferred tax assets.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences between financial statement carrying value of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax loss and credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Accounting standards require that we assess whether valuation allowances should be established or maintained against our deferred income tax assets, based on consideration of all available evidence, using a “more-likely-than-not” standard. The factors used to assess the likelihood of realization are: history of losses, forecasts of future
24 Magna International Inc. AnnualReport 2025
pre-tax income and tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize the deferred tax assets. On a quarterly basis, we evaluate the realizability of deferred tax assets by assessing our valuation allowances and by adjusting the amount of such allowances as necessary. We use tax planning strategies to realize deferred tax assets in order to avoid the potential loss of these tax benefits. Changes in our estimates, due to unforeseen events or otherwise, could have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations. Refer to Note 13, “Income Taxes” of the notes to our consolidated financial statements for additional information.
EMPLOYEE FUTURE BENEFIT PLANS
The determination of the obligation and expense for defined benefit pension, termination and long service arrangements and other post-retirement benefits, such as retiree healthcare and medical benefits, is dependent on the selection of certain assumptions used by actuaries in calculating such amounts. Those assumptions include, among others, the discount rate, expected long-term rate of return on plan assets and rates of increase in compensation costs. Actual results that differ from the assumptions used are accumulated and amortized over future periods and therefore impact the recognized expense in future periods. Significant changes in assumptions or significant plan amendments could materially affect our future employee benefit obligations and future expense.
At December 31, 2025, we had past service costs and actuarial experience losses of $73 million included in accumulated other comprehensive income that will be amortized to future employee benefit expense over the expected average remaining service life of employees or over the expected average life expectancy of retired employees, depending on the status of the plan.
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
From time to time, we may be contingently liable for litigation, legal and/or regulatory actions and proceedings and other claims. Refer to Note 24, “Contingencies” of our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025.
For a discussion of risk factors relating to legal and other claims/actions against us, refer to “Item 5. Risk Factors” in our Annual Information Form, filed with the securities commissions in Canada, our Annual Report on Form 40-F, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, and subsequent filings.

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended [the “Exchange Act”]), are designed to ensure that material information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to senior management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to enable them to make timely decisions regarding required disclosure of such information. We have conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2025, under the supervision, and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as this term is defined in the rules adopted by Canadian securities regulatory authorities and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission [“SEC”]) are effective as of December 31, 2025.
MANAGEMENT’S ANNUAL REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Due to its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. Additionally, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Our management used the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission [“COSO”] Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) to evaluate the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting.
Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and concluded that, as at December 31, 2025, such internal control over financial reporting is effective. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, has been audited by Deloitte LLP, an Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, who also audited the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. Deloitte LLP expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. This report precedes our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during 2025 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
RISK FACTORS
Our short and medium-term operational success, as well as our ability to create long-term value through our business strategy, are subject to risks and uncertainties. The following are the more significant risks:
MACROECONOMIC, GEOPOLITICAL AND OTHER RISKS
| • | Geopolitical Risks: Geopolitical crises could create a number of risks, including: disruption of energy supplies<br>(particularly natural gas and oil); shipping/transportation and logistics, vehicle production and/or supply chains; weakening economic growth and consumer confidence; increasing inflation; increasing physical or cybersecurity threats; and/or<br>worsening other risks described elsewhere in these Risk Factors, such as commodity prices, relative foreign exchange rates and risks of doing business in foreign markets. An expansion or worsening of existing geopolitical crises, or the occurrence<br>of significant new geopolitical risks, could have a material adverse effect on our business and operations. |
|---|---|
| • | Threats to Free Trade Agreements: Historical growth in the automotive industry has been aided by the free movement<br>of goods, services, people and capital through bilateral and regional trade agreements, particularly in North America pursuant to the North American Free Trade Agreement (1994 – 2020) and the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement<br>[“USMCA”] (2020 – Present). Measures implemented by the current U.S administration have created an unpredictable trade environment by imposing or expanding tariffs, and in some cases, modifying or suspending some of the tariffs<br>recently imposed. The overall climate of trade and tariff unpredictability presents a number of challenges for the entire automotive supply chain, including: |
| --- | --- |
| • | Disruption of integrated supply chains – U.S. tariff and trade policies risk disrupting integrated global<br>and regional automotive supply chains, given the stated aim of repatriating manufacturing to the U.S. Continuing uncertainty appears to be impacting OEM production/footprint decision-making and presents industry-wide challenges with planning,<br>forecasting and efficient capital allocation. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Input costs – U.S. tariffs, together with retaliatory measures, risk increasing our input costs, the prices<br>paid by our customers for our products, as well as the price consumers pay for vehicles. Significant or sustained unmitigated tariff cost increases which are not recovered from our customers could have a material adverse effect on our profitability.<br> |
| --- | --- |
| • | Vehicle affordability – to the extent tariffs erode vehicle affordability, consumer demand for vehicles may<br>decline, prompting a reduction in vehicle production volumes, which is a material driver of our operations, sales and profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | International Trade Disputes: International trade disputes could, among other things, reduce demand for and<br>production of vehicles, disrupt global supply chains, distort commodity pricing, impair the ability of automotive suppliers and vehicle manufacturers to make efficient long-term investment decisions, create volatility in relative foreign exchange<br>rates, and contribute to stock market volatility. The imposition of sanctions, tariffs and/or the escalation of trade disputes which interfere with automotive supply chains could have an adverse effect on our operations, profitability and ability to<br>effectively execute our corporate strategy. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Planning and Forecasting Challenges: Macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty, together with unpredictable<br>government policy-making, including with respect to trade and tariffs, continue to present operational planning and forecasting challenges for OEMs, Tier 1 suppliers, and other automotive suppliers. In recent years, OEMs have taken actions such as:<br>unplanned shutdowns of production lines and/or plants; reductions in their vehicle production plans; and changes to their product mix. Such OEM actions can result in a number of direct and indirect consequences for automotive suppliers like Magna,<br>including: lower sales; significant production inefficiencies resulting from our production lines being stopped/restarted unexpectedly; and unrecoverable costs and changes, including from sub-suppliers that<br>have been adversely affected by production inefficiencies. If prolonged, the occurrence/recurrence of any such actions could have a material adverse effect on our operations, sales and profitability. Additionally, planning and forecasting<br>uncertainty could result in greater variability between market expectations and our actual financial and operating results which, in turn, could increase volatility in our stock price. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Interest Rates: Key consumer borrowing rates in North America and Europe remain elevated compared to levels<br>experienced prior to 2020. The availability and cost of credit are both factors affecting consumer confidence, which is a critical driver of vehicle sales and thus automotive production. A material, sustained decrease in consumer demand for vehicles<br>could result in reductions to vehicle production from levels assumed in our business plan, which could have a material adverse effect on our profitability and financial condition. Higher interest rates will also have an adverse effect on our<br>borrowing costs and, if prolonged, could have an adverse effect on our profitability. |
| --- | --- |
RISKS RELATED TO THE AUTOMOTIVEINDUSTRY
| • | Pace of EV Adoption: Although the number of EVs sold globally continues to grow, the rate of growth has moderated<br>in some markets due to consumer hesitancy related to issues such as: vehicle affordability; reduced availability of government rebates for the purchase of EVs; concerns regarding evolving battery technologies; anxiety regarding driving range;<br> |
|---|
26 Magna International Inc. AnnualReport 2025
| <br>inadequacy of charging infrastructure; new EV OEMs and models with little or no operating and warranty history; and rapid depreciation and deterioration in residual values for EVs. If planned<br>production volumes for EV programs do not materialize, we may not be able to recover our capital investments related to such programs, or to recover such investments within the timeframes contemplated, which could have a material adverse effect on<br>our profitability and financial condition. | |
|---|---|
| • | North American EV Program Deferrals, Cancellations and Volume Reductions: Certain OEMs, primarily in North<br>America, continue updating their EV strategies by deferring or cancelling planned EV programs and/or reducing production volumes below the levels at which we previously quoted. We are pursuing commercial recoveries from our customers as a result of<br>these actions, but we may be unable to fully recover various pre-production, tooling, engineering, and other costs incurred in advance of production, or unable to recover them within the timeframe originally<br>contemplated in our business plan. We may also experience production inefficiencies, including as a result of unutilized or underutilized production capacity and/or disruptions to our workforce plans at affected facilities. The deferral or<br>cancellation of EV programs, or reduction in planned production volumes, combined with the failure to secure commercial recoveries from our customers to fully offset associated costs and inefficiencies, may have a material adverse effect on our<br>profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Economic Cyclicality: Ordinarily, the global automotive industry is cyclical, with potential for regional<br>differences in the timing of expansion and contraction of economic cycles. In normal industry cycles, lower consumer confidence typically translates to lower vehicle sales and production volumes. Examples of factors which often reduce consumer<br>confidence include: worsening economic, political, and other conditions; consumer perceptions and general trends related to the job, housing, and stock markets; military conflict; increasing inflation (particularly fuel and energy prices); and<br>rising interest rates. A significant decline in vehicle production volumes from levels assumed in our business plan could have a material adverse effect on our profitability and financial condition. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Regional Production Volumes: North America, Europe and China are key automotive producing regions for us, and our<br>operating results are primarily dependent on car and light truck production by our customers in these regions. A significant or sustained decline in vehicle production volumes in any or all these geographic regions could have a material adverse<br>effect on our operations, sales, and profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Deteriorating Vehicle Affordability: Higher vehicle prices continue to create affordability challenges for<br>consumers. Factors contributing to higher vehicle prices include: tariffs; costs related to advanced electronic systems; elevated vehicle finance costs; increased commodity costs; and changes in relative foreign exchange rates. A material, sustained<br>decrease in consumer demand for vehicles due to deteriorating vehicle affordability could result in reductions to vehicle production from levels assumed in our business plan, which could have a material adverse effect on our profitability and<br>financial condition. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Intense Competition: The automotive supply industry is highly competitive. Some of our competitors have higher or<br>more rapidly growing market share than we do in certain product or geographic markets. Additionally, a number of established electronics and semiconductor chip companies have entered or expanded their presence in the automotive industry. At the same<br>time, disruptive technology innovators continue introducing novel product and service solutions which traditional automotive suppliers may not be able to match. Failure to successfully compete with existing or new competitors could affect our<br>ability to fully implement our corporate strategy. |
| --- | --- |
STRATEGIC RISKS
| • | Evolution of the Vehicle: The success of our corporate strategy is correlated to our ability to grow our business<br>and capabilities in product areas which demonstrate long-term growth. Some systems in our product portfolio are expected to decline over the long-term, including manual transmissions, mechanical all-wheel<br>drive/four-wheel drive systems and fuel tank systems. The failure to grow our sales of higher growth products at or above the industry rates of growth for such products could have a material adverse effect on our profitability and financial<br>condition. |
|---|---|
| • | Evolving Business Risk Profile: The risk profile of our business continues to evolve due to our exposure to<br>product areas such as battery enclosures, electrified powertrains, advanced driver assistance systems [“ADAS”] and electronics. As a result, we may face new or heightened risks, including: forecasting, planning and capital allocation<br>risks due to uncertainties regarding the shift from internal combustion engine [“ICE”] to EV production volumes; take-rates for ADAS systems and/or features offered to consumers as optional items; reduction in demand for certain products<br>which are unique to ICE vehicles; challenges in quoting for profitable returns on products with leading-edge technologies; rigorous testing and validation requirements from OEM customers for complex new products; increased warranty and recall risks<br>on new products and leading-edge technologies; increased product liability risks; increased counterparty risk; heightened risk of technological obsolescence of some of our products, processes and/or assets; and difficulties in attracting or<br>retaining employees with critical skills in high-demand areas. Realization of one or more such risks could have a material adverse effect on our operations, profitability, or financial condition. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Technology and Innovation: While we continue to invest in technology and innovation which we believe will be<br>critical to our long-term growth, the automotive industry is experiencing significant electrical, electronic, and software-driven change and disruption. Our ability to anticipate changes in technology and to successfully develop and introduce new<br>and enhanced products and/or manufacturing processes on a timely basis will be significant factors in our ability to remain competitive. Additionally, our success is dependent on our ability to attract, develop and retain employees with the required<br>technical and/or software skills. If we are unsuccessful or are less successful than our competitors in consistently developing innovative products and/or processes, we may be placed at a competitive disadvantage in bidding for new business and may<br>not be able to recover some or all our engineering, research, and development costs, which could have a material adverse effect on our profitability, financial condition, and ability to fully implement our corporate strategy. |
| --- | --- |
Magna International Inc. AnnualReport 2025 27
| • | Investments in Mobility and Technology Companies: In addition to our development activities, we have invested in<br>various mobility and technology companies, as well as funds that invest in such companies, and may continue to do so in the future. However, investing in such companies involves a high degree of risk, including the potential loss of some or all of<br>our investment value and/or supply continuity risks to the extent we have supply relations with them. There is currently no public market for the shares or units of some of these investments and, as a result, we may be unable to monetize such<br>investments in the future. In some cases, we may have equity in technology-driven suppliers with which we have commercial supply relations; while the value of such equity may be affected by the commercial prospects of such programs, our ability to<br>exit our investments may be impaired by the existence of our commercial supply relationship. Investments in companies or funds which are currently or subsequently become publicly traded are “marked-to-market” quarterly, which may result in us recording unrealized gains or losses in any given quarter. The realization of any of the foregoing investment-related risks could have an<br>adverse effect on our profitability and financial condition. |
|---|
CUSTOMER-RELATED RISKS
| • | Customer Concentration: Although we supply parts to all major OEMs, a significant majority of our sales are to six<br>customers: General Motors, Mercedes-Benz, Ford, BMW, Volkswagen and Stellantis. Additionally, growth rates of OEMs differ by region and segment, with significant growth by some<br>EV-focused OEMs in certain markets, such as China. Shifts in market share away from our top customers could have a material adverse effect on our profitability to the extent we are unable to offset such lost<br>sales with sufficient sales growth to alternative OEMs. |
|---|---|
| • | Market Shifts: While we supply parts for a wide variety of vehicles produced globally, we do not supply parts for<br>all vehicles produced, nor is the number or value of parts evenly distributed among the vehicles for which we do supply parts. Additionally, in recent years, we have experienced a concentration in content on certain EV models. Shifts in market<br>shares away from vehicles on which we have significant content, as well as vehicle segments in which our sales may be more heavily concentrated, could have a material adverse effect on our sales and profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Growth of Chinese OEMs: A number of China-based OEMs [“COEMs”], including BYD, Chery, GAC, Geely,<br>Huawei, Nio, Xiaomi, and XPeng, have demonstrated significant commercial success in China in recent years and some are seeking to export vehicles to, or localize production in, Europe. While we are targeting growth with some of these COEMs, we may<br>not have relationships with them which are as well established as those with our traditional customers. The failure to sufficiently grow our sales to those COEMs which achieve significant commercial success could adversely impact our long-term<br>strategy. Additionally, to the extent COEMs win market share from our traditional customers, our profitability may be adversely affected if we are unable to offset lost sales by winning business with such COEMs or on alternative programs with<br>sufficient volumes and margins. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Dependence on Outsourcing: We depend on outsourcing by OEMs, including the outsourcing of complete vehicle<br>assembly to our contract vehicle manufacturing business. The extent of such outsourcing is based on a number of factors, including: the cost, quality, and timeliness of outsourced production relative to<br>in-house production by an OEM; the degree of unutilized capacity at an OEM’s facilities; collective bargaining agreements and labour relations between OEMs and labour unions; impact of tariffs on<br>OEMs’ manufacturing footprints; and other factors. Currently, many OEMs have excess vehicle assembly capacity, particularly in Europe and China. Additionally, since EVs have fewer components than vehicles with internal combustion engines, some<br>OEMs may insource production of certain components or systems to maintain employment levels committed to in collective bargaining agreements and/or in connection with government incentives. A reduction in outsourcing by OEMs, or the loss of any<br>material production or assembly programs combined with the failure to secure alternative programs with sufficient volumes and margins, could have a material adverse effect on our profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Consumer Take Rate Shifts: Shifts in consumer preferences may impact “take rates” for certain types of<br>products we sell. Examples of such products include: all-wheel drive systems; power liftgates; active aerodynamics systems; ADAS; and complete vehicles with certain option packages or option choices. Where<br>shifts in consumer preferences result in higher “take rates” for products that we do not sell or for products we sell at a lower margin, our profitability may be adversely affected. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Customer Purchase Orders: Contracts from our customers consist of blanket purchase orders which generally provide<br>for the supply of a customer’s annual requirements rather than a specific quantity of products and can be terminated by a customer at any time. We may have various tooling, engineering, dedicated program capital, and other costs incurred in<br>advance of production which cannot be easily recovered from our customers if a purchase order is terminated and/or if forecast production volumes fail to materialize within the timeframe contemplated in our business plan. We may also experience<br>production inefficiencies, including as a result of unutilized or underutilized production capacity and/or disruptions to our workforce plans at facilities affected by the cancellation or reduction of production volumes. The failure to secure<br>commercial recoveries from customers to offset such costs and other operating inefficiencies may have a material adverse effect on our profitability. |
| --- | --- |
28 Magna International Inc. AnnualReport 2025
| • | Potential OEM Production-Related Disruptions: Any significant OEM production disruptions, including as a result of<br>labour unrest at customer or sub-supplier facilities, parts shortages, or natural disasters, would lead to disruptions to our production, which could have a material adverse effect on our sales and<br>profitability. |
|---|
SUPPLY CHAIN RISKS
| • | Supply Base: We rely on a number of suppliers to supply us with a wide range of components required in connection<br>with our business. The financial health of automotive suppliers is impacted by a number of factors, including economic conditions and production volumes. A significant worsening of economic conditions or reduction in production volumes could<br>deteriorate the financial condition of our supply base, which could lead to, among other things: disruptions in the supply of critical components to us or our customers; and/or temporary shutdowns of our production line(s) or the production line(s)<br>of our customers. The occurrence of any such factors could have a material adverse effect on our profitability. |
|---|---|
| • | Supplier Claims: Input cost increases, shortfalls in vehicle production volumes, program deferrals or<br>cancellations, intellectual property claims, tariff costs, and other factors could give rise to commercial or legal cost recovery claims against us by our suppliers, which could have an adverse effect on our profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Supply Chain Disruptions: OEMs and Tier 1 automotive suppliers may experience supply disruptions, constraints<br>and/or price increases on critical manufacturing inputs (including semiconductor chips), for a number of different reasons, including: competing demand from non-automotive sectors; government regulation or<br>intervention; trade and tariff disputes; geopolitical and/or military conflict; interruption of shipping or other transportation routes; natural catastrophes; labour disruptions; shortages of parts and/or materials; intellectual property claims; and<br>pandemics. Supply chain disruptions which prevent us from the timely supply of products to our customers could result in a range of potential adverse consequences, including: unrecoverable price increases; elevated, unrecoverable costs such as those<br>for premium freight or re-sourcing of supply; penalties, business interruption claims, or other commercial claims by our customers and suppliers; loss of future business; and reputational damage. The impacts<br>of prolonged supply chain disruptions or constraints could have a material adverse effect on our operations and profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Regional Energy Supply and Pricing: Regional energy supplies have from time to time been disrupted due to<br>geopolitical and military conflict, supply/demand imbalances, government regulation, severe weather events, and challenges related to the transition to renewable energy generation. Unforeseen supply disruptions, demand spikes, prolonged energy<br>disruptions and/or significant energy price increases could have a material adverse effect on our operations and profitability. |
| --- | --- |
MANUFACTURING / OPERATIONAL RISKS
| • | Product Launch: The launch of production is a complex process, the success of which depends on a wide range of<br>factors, including: the timing and frequency of design changes by our customers relative to the start of production; product maturity and complexity; production readiness of our own, as well as our customers’ and suppliers’ manufacturing<br>facilities; robustness of manufacturing and validation processes; launch volumes; quality and production readiness of tooling and equipment; sufficiency of skilled employees; and initial product quality. Failure by us to successfully launch a new<br>product or complete vehicle could result in commercial or litigation claims against us which could have a material adverse effect on our profitability. Additionally, a significant product or program launch failure could adversely affect our<br>reputation, future business prospects with one or more customers, and/or ability to execute our corporate strategy. |
|---|---|
| • | Operational Underperformance: From time to time, we may have operating divisions which are not performing at<br>expected levels of profitability. The size and complexity of automotive manufacturing operations often makes it difficult to achieve a quick turnaround of underperforming divisions. Significant or prolonged underperformance at any of our operating<br>divisions could have a material adverse effect on our profitability and operations. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Restructuring Costs: We may sell some product lines and/or downsize, close, or sell some of our operating<br>divisions. By taking such actions, we will incur restructuring, downsizing and/or other significant non-recurring costs. These costs may be higher in some countries than others and could have a material<br>adverse effect on our profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Impairments: We have recorded significant impairment charges related to equity interests in joint ventures,<br>goodwill, and long-lived assets in the past and may do so again in the future. The occurrence of any of a number of potential scenarios could result in indicators of impairment, including: the early termination, loss, renegotiation of the terms of,<br>or delay in the implementation of, any significant production contract; the technological obsolescence of any of our products or production assets; production volumes that are lower than expected; and the insolvency of a customer. In conducting our<br>impairment analysis, we make forward-looking assumptions regarding: the impact of turnaround plans on underperforming operations; new business opportunities; program price and cost assumptions on current and future business; the timing and success<br>of new program launches; and forecast production volumes. To the extent such forward-looking assumptions are not met, any resulting impairment loss could have a material adverse effect on our profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Skilled Labour Attraction/Retention: Our business is based on successfully attracting, developing, and retaining<br>employees at all levels of the company from “shopfloor” to Executive Management. The markets for highly skilled workers, as well as talented professionals and leaders in our industry are extremely competitive, particularly in the major<br>global automotive and technology centres in which many of our operations are located. The inability to meet our needs for skilled workers and talented professionals and leaders, whether through recruitment or internal training and development<br>activities could impact our ability to profitably conduct business and/or effectively implement our corporate strategy. |
| --- | --- |
Magna International Inc. AnnualReport 2025 29
PRICING RISKS
| • | Quote/Pricing Assumptions: The time between award of new production business and start of production typically<br>ranges between two and four years. Since product pricing is typically determined at the time of award, we are subject to significant pricing risk due to changes in input costs, tariff costs, variance in production volumes, and other quote<br>assumptions from the time of award through the start of production. The inability to quote effectively, or the occurrence of a material change in input costs, tariff costs, production volumes, or other quote assumptions between program award and<br>production, could have a material adverse effect on our profitability. |
|---|---|
| • | Customer Pricing Pressure/Contractual Arrangements: We face ongoing pricing pressure from OEMs, including through:<br>quoting pre-requirements; long-term supply agreements with mutually agreed price reductions over the life of the agreement; non-contractual annual price concession<br>demands; pressure to absorb costs related to product design, engineering and tooling, and/or amortize such costs through the piece price for the product; pressure to assume incremental warranty costs; and OEM refusal to fully offset inflationary<br>price increases and/or tariff costs. OEMs possess significant leverage over their suppliers due to their purchasing power and the highly competitive nature of the automotive supply industry. As a result of the broad portfolio of parts we supply to<br>our largest OEM customers, such customers may be able to exert greater leverage over us as compared to our competitors. We attempt to offset price concessions and costs in a number of ways, including through commercial negotiations with our<br>customers, improved operating efficiencies and cost reduction efforts. Our inability to fully offset and/or fully recover any such incremental costs over the life of production could have a material adverse effect on our profitability. Moreover,<br>while we attempt to negotiate contractual terms with our suppliers that align with the contractual terms between us and our OEM customers, we may not always be successful in doing so. Any such gaps between our customer and supplier contract terms<br>could, in certain circumstances, have an adverse effect on our profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Commodity Price Volatility: Prices for certain key raw materials and commodities used in our parts, including<br>steel, aluminum, resin, and energy can be volatile. In some cases, our risk is mitigated because we purchase steel, aluminum, and to a more limited extent, resin under customer resale programs. Where such commodity purchases are not made under<br>customer resale programs, we seek to offset commodity price increases by: passing such increases to our customers; engineering products with reduced commodity content; implementing hedging strategies; or otherwise. To the extent we are unable to<br>offset commodity price increases, such additional commodity costs could have an adverse effect on our profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Scrap Steel/Aluminum Price Volatility: Some of our manufacturing facilities generate a significant amount of<br>engineered scrap steel and/or aluminum in their manufacturing processes but recover some of the value through the sale of such scrap. Scrap steel and scrap aluminum prices can also be volatile and do not necessarily move in the same direction as<br>steel or aluminum prices. Declines in scrap steel/aluminum prices from time to time could have an adverse effect on our profitability. |
| --- | --- |
WARRANTY / RECALL RISKS
| • | Repair/Replacement Costs: We are responsible for the repair and replacement costs associated with any defective<br>products that we supply to our customers. Certain of our products, such as transmissions and battery enclosures, typically have a higher unit and labour service cost in the event of replacement. Other products, such as cameras, radars and side door<br>latches, are supplied in multiples of two or four for a single vehicle, which could result in significant cost in the event all such products need to be replaced. OEMs and/or government regulators can initiate recalls of safety or regulated<br>products, which could place us at risk for the administrative costs of the recall in addition to the repair/replacement costs of defective products, even in situations where we dispute the need for a recall or the responsibility for any alleged<br>defect. The obligation to repair or replace defective products could have a material adverse effect on our operations and profitability. To the extent such obligation arises as a result of a product recall, we may face reputational damage, and the<br>combination of administrative and repair/replacement costs could have a material adverse effect on our profitability. |
|---|---|
| • | Warranty Provisions: In certain circumstances, we are at risk for warranty, product liability and recall costs. We<br>are currently experiencing increased customer pressure to assume greater warranty responsibility. Certain customers seek to impose partial responsibility for warranty costs where the underlying root cause of a product or system failure cannot be<br>determined, or where the root cause is disputed, as in the case of the Ford warranty claim disclosed in Note 24, “Contingencies” of our consolidated financial statements. Warranty provisions for our products are based on our best<br>estimate of the amounts necessary to settle existing or probable claims related to product defects. Warranty claims which exceed warranty provisions could have a material adverse effect on our profitability. In addition, warranty provisions for our<br>powertrain systems, electronics and complete vehicle programs are also established based on our or our customers’ warranty experience with the applicable type of product and, in some cases, the terms in the applicable customer agreements.<br>Actual warranty experience which results in costs that exceed our warranty provisions, could have a material adverse effect on our profitability. |

30 Magna International Inc. AnnualReport 2025
| • | Product Liability: We cannot guarantee that the design, engineering, testing, validation, and manufacturing<br>measures we employ to ensure high-quality products will be completely effective, particularly as electronic content and product complexity increases and/or as we enter newer product areas such as e-Drives or<br>ADAS. If our products fail to perform as expected or as required by governmental regulations, and/or to the extent any such failure results in, or is alleged to result in, bodily injury and/or property damage or other losses, our customers or<br>government regulators may initiate a product recall of such products and/or third party product liability claims may be brought against us. The defense of product liability claims, particularly class action claims in North America, may be costly and<br>judgements against us could impair our reputation and have a material adverse effect on our profitability. |
|---|
ITSECURITY / CYBERSECURITY RISKS
| • | IT/Cybersecurity Breach: Although we have established and continue to enhance security controls intended to<br>protect our IT systems and infrastructure, there is no guarantee that such security measures will be effective in preventing unauthorized physical access or cyber-attacks. A significant breach of our IT systems could: result in theft of funds; cause<br>disruptions in our manufacturing operations; lead to the loss, destruction, or inappropriate use of sensitive data, including employees’ personal data; or result in theft of our, our customers’ or our suppliers’ intellectual<br>property or confidential information. The occurrence of any of the foregoing could adversely affect our operations and/or reputation and could lead to claims against us that could have a material adverse effect on our profitability.<br> |
|---|---|
| • | Product Cybersecurity: The risk of vehicle cyber-attacks has risen with the proliferation of technology designed<br>to connect vehicles to external networks. Although vehicle and systems-level cybersecurity controls and protections are typically managed and/or specified by our OEM customers, we cannot provide assurance that such controls and protections will be<br>effective in preventing cyber intrusion through one of our products. Furthermore, an OEM customer may still seek to hold us financially responsible, even where the OEM specified the cybersecurity controls and protections. Any such cyber intrusion<br>could cause reputational damage and lead to claims against us that have an adverse effect on our profitability. |
| --- | --- |
OTHERBUSINESS RISKS
| • | Joint Ventures: We conduct certain of our operations through joint ventures with contractual arrangements under<br>which we share management responsibilities with our joint venture partner(s). Joint venture operations carry a range of risks, including those relating to: failure of our joint venture partner(s) to satisfy contractual obligations; potential<br>conflicts between us and our joint venture partner(s); strategic objectives of joint venture partners that may differ from our own; potential delays in decision-making; a limited ability to implement some or all of our policies, practices and<br>controls, or to control legal and regulatory compliance, within the joint venture(s); and other risks inherent to non-wholly-owned operations. The likelihood of such occurrences and their potential effect on<br>us varies depending on the joint venture arrangement, however, the occurrence of any such risks could have an adverse effect on our operations, profitability, and reputation. |
|---|---|
| • | Intellectual Property: We own intellectual property that is important to our business and product portfolio. Our<br>intellectual property is an important factor in protecting our innovation activities and maintaining our competitive advantage. From time to time, our intellectual property rights may be challenged, including through the assertion of intellectual<br>property infringement claims which could result in us: being prevented from producing and selling certain products; having to license the infringed product/technology; and/or incurring monetary damages. The foregoing consequences could have an<br>adverse effect on our sales, profitability, and ability to fully implement our corporate strategy. |

| • | Risks of Doing Business in Foreign Markets: Conducting business in markets outside our traditional markets of<br>North America and Europe carries a number of potential risks, including those relating to: political, civil and economic instability and uncertainty; military conflict; corruption risks; high inflation and our ability to recover inflation-related<br>cost increases; trade, customs and tax risks; potential sanctions and export control risk; expropriation risks; currency exchange rates; currency controls; limitations on the repatriation of funds; insufficient infrastructure; competition to attract<br>and retain qualified employees; and other risks associated with conducting business internationally. The likelihood of such occurrences and their potential effect on us vary from country to country and are unpredictable, however, the occurrence of<br>any such risks could have an adverse effect on our operations, profitability, and financial condition. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Tax Risks: At any given time, we may face tax exposures arising out of changes in tax or transfer pricing laws<br>(including changes to the enforcement or interpretation of existing laws), adverse court rulings, tax reassessments or otherwise. To the extent we cannot implement measures to offset these exposures, they may have an adverse effect on our<br>profitability. We have incurred losses in some countries which we may not be able to fully or partially offset against income we have earned in those countries. In some cases, we may not be able to utilize these losses at all if we cannot generate<br>profits in those countries and/or if we have ceased conducting business in those countries altogether. Our inability to utilize tax losses could adversely affect our profitability. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Relative Foreign Exchange Rates: Our profitability is affected by movements of our U.S. dollar reporting currency<br>against the Canadian dollar, the euro, the Chinese renminbi, and other currencies in which we generate revenues and incur expenses. Significant long-term fluctuations in relative currency values, in particular a significant change in the relative<br>values of the U.S. dollar, Canadian dollar, euro, or Chinese renminbi, could have an adverse effect on our profitability and financial condition, and any sustained change in such relative currency values could adversely impact our competitiveness in<br>certain geographic regions. |

| • | Returns on Capital Investments: In recent years, we have invested significant amounts of money in our business<br>through capital expenditures to support new facilities, expansion of existing facilities, purchases of production equipment and acquisitions. Returns achieved on such investments in the past are not necessarily indicative of the returns we may<br>achieve on future investments, and our inability to achieve returns on future investments which equal or exceed returns on past investments could have a material adverse effect on our level of profitability. |
|---|---|
| • | Financial Flexibility: The occurrence of an economic shock not contemplated in our business plan, a rapid<br>deterioration of conditions or a prolonged recession could result in the depletion of our cash resources, which could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial condition. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Credit Ratings Changes: There is no assurance that any credit rating currently assigned to us will remain in<br>effect for any period of time or that any rating will not be revised or withdrawn entirely by a rating agency in the future. A downgrade in the credit ratings assigned to us or our industry by one or more agencies could increase our cost of<br>borrowing or impact our ability to negotiate loans, which could have an adverse effect on our profitability, financial condition, and the trading price of our Common Shares. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Stock Price Fluctuation: Trading prices of our Common Shares cannot be predicted and may fluctuate significantly<br>due to a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control. |
| --- | --- |
LEGAL, REGULATORY AND OTHER RISKS
| • | Legal and Regulatory Proceedings: From time to time, we may become involved in regulatory proceedings, or become<br>liable for legal, contractual, and other claims by various parties, including customers, suppliers, former employees, class action plaintiffs and others. Depending on the nature or duration of any potential proceedings or claims, we may incur<br>substantial costs and expenses, be required to devote significant management time and resources to the matters and suffer reputational damage. On an ongoing basis, we attempt to assess the likelihood of any adverse judgements or outcomes to these<br>proceedings or claims, although it is difficult to predict final outcomes with any degree of certainty. Except as disclosed from time to time in our consolidated financial statements and/or our MD&A, we do not believe that any of the proceedings<br>or claims to which we are currently a party will have a material adverse effect on our profitability; however, we cannot provide any assurance to this effect. |
|---|---|
| • | Changes in Laws: A significant change in the current regulatory environment in our principal markets, including:<br>changes in laws or the enforcement or interpretation of existing laws; the imposition of tariffs and trade barriers; stricter regulatory approaches to CO2 emissions, software and data privacy; sourcing of electronics components; and access to rare<br>earth minerals; and other laws which impose additional costs on automotive manufacturers or consumers, could have an adverse effect on our profitability. |

Consolidated Financial Statements
Magna International Inc.
December 31, 2025
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Magna International Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Magna International Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as at December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows, for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 25, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Impairment Assessment – Power & Vision Segment — Refer to Notes 2, 4, 12 and 14 to the financial statements
Critical Audit Matter Description
For finite-lived intangible assets an impairment test is required when there are indicators of impairment. Indicators of impairment were present for an asset group containing certain finite-lived intangible assets in one reporting unit (“identified RU”) within the Power & Vision segment and as a result the Company evaluated the recoverability of those assets. The Company’s annual evaluation of goodwill for impairment involves the comparison of the fair value of reporting units to their respective carrying amounts. The fair value of the asset group and identified RU was determined using estimated discounted future cash flows. The carrying amount of the identified RU’s finite-lived intangible assets and goodwill exceeded their respective fair values, and impairment charges were recorded.
While there are several estimates and assumptions that are required to determine the fair value of the asset group and identified RU, the estimates and assumptions with the highest degree of subjectivity are forecasted revenues, production volumes, discount rate and the terminal growth rate. Given the evaluation of the impairment involved significant management judgment, particularly in assessing key assumptions underlying the determination of fair value, auditing these assumptions required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of audit effort, including the involvement of our fair value specialists.
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to forecasted revenues, production volumes, discount rate and terminal growth rate used to determine the fair value of the asset group and identified RU included the following, among others:
| • | Evaluated the reasonableness of management’s forecasted revenue and production volumes through consideration of the following: |
|---|---|
| ○ | Historical sales volumes; |
| --- | --- |
| ○ | Analyst and industry reports; |
| --- | --- |
| ○ | Pipeline of contracts in the proposal stage; |
| --- | --- |
| ○ | Underlying management analyses detailing growth plans; |
| --- | --- |
| ○ | Known changes in the Company’s operations, which are expected to impact future operating performance; and |
| --- | --- |
| ○ | Internal communications to management and the Board of Directors. |
| --- | --- |
| • | With the assistance of fair value specialists, evaluated the reasonableness of the discount rate by testing the source information underlying the determination of the discount rate and developing a range of independent estimates and comparing those to the discount rate selected by management. |
| --- | --- |
| • | With the assistance of fair value specialists, evaluated the reasonableness of the terminal growth rate by developing a range of independent estimates and comparing those to the terminal growth rate selected by management. |
| --- | --- |
| • | Evaluated the effectiveness of controls over the determination of forecasted sales volumes, discount rates and terminal growth rates. |

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Magna International Inc.
Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Magna International Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2025, of the Company and our report dated February 25, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
[All amounts in U.S. dollars and all tabular amounts in millions, except per share figures, unless otherwise noted]
- NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Magna International Inc. [collectively “Magna” or the “Company”] is a global automotive supplier which has complete vehicle engineering and contract manufacturing expertise, as well as product and system capabilities which include body, chassis, exterior, seating, powertrain, active driver assistance, electronics, mirrors & lighting, mechatronics, and roof systems.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in U.S. dollars in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America [“GAAP”].
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Magna and its subsidiaries in which Magna has a controlling financial interest and is the primary beneficiary. The Company presents non-controlling interests as a separate component within Shareholders’ equity in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Use of estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Foreign currency translation
The Company operates globally, which gives rise to a risk that its earnings and cash flows may be adversely impacted by fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.
Assets and liabilities of the Company’s operations having a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate in effect at year end, and revenues and expenses are translated at the average rate during the year. Exchange gains or losses on translation of the Company’s net investment in these operations are included in comprehensive income and are deferred in accumulated other comprehensive loss. Foreign exchange gains or losses on debt that was designated as a hedge of the Company’s net investment in these foreign operations are also recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss.
Foreign exchange gains and losses on transactions occurring in a currency other than an operation’s functional currency are reflected in net income, except for gains and losses on foreign exchange contracts used to hedge specific future commitments in foreign currencies and on intercompany balances which are designated as long-term investments. In particular, the Company uses foreign exchange forward contracts for the sole purpose of hedging certain of the Company’s future committed foreign currency based outflows and inflows. Most of the Company’s foreign exchange contracts are subject to master netting arrangements that provide for the net settlement of contracts, by counterparty, in the event of default or termination. All derivative instruments, including foreign exchange contracts, are recorded on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value. The fair values of derivatives are recorded on a gross basis in prepaid expenses and other, other assets, other accrued liabilities or other long-term liabilities. To the extent that derivative instruments are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the changes in their fair values are recorded in other comprehensive income. Changes in the fair value of derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting are recognized immediately in net income based on the nature of the underlying transaction. Amounts accumulated in other comprehensive loss or income are reclassified to net income in the period in which the hedged item affects net income.
If the Company’s foreign exchange forward contracts cease to be effective as hedges, for example if projected foreign cash inflows or outflows declined significantly, gains or losses would be recognized in net income at the time this condition was identified.
- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on account, demand deposits and short-term investments with maturities of less than three months at acquisition.

Production inventories and tooling inventories manufactured in-house are valued at the lower of cost determined substantially on a first-in,
first-out basis, or net realizable value. Cost includes the cost of materials plus direct labour applied to the product and the applicable share of manufacturing overhead.
Investments
The Company accounts for investments in companies over which it has the ability to exercise significant influence, but does not hold a controlling financial interest, under the equity method [“Equity method investments”]. The Company monitors its Equity method investments for indicators of other-than-temporary declines in value on an ongoing basis. If the Company determines that an other-than-temporary decline in value has occurred, it recognizes an impairment loss, which is measured as the difference between the book value and the fair value of the investment. Fair value is generally determined using an income approach based on discounted cash flows. The inputs utilized in the analyses are classified as Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy as defined in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement” and primarily consist of expected investee revenue and costs, estimated production volumes and discount rates.
The Company also has investments in private and publicly traded companies over which it does not have the ability to exercise significant influence. The Company has elected to use the measurement alternative, defined as cost, less impairments, adjusted by observable price changes to measure the private equity investments. The Company values its investments in publicly traded equity securities using the closing price on the measurement date, as reported on the stock exchange on which the securities are traded.
Private equity investments are subject to impairment reviews which considers both qualitative and quantitative factors that may have a significant impact on the investee’s fair value. Upon determining that an impairment may exist, the security’s fair value is calculated using the best information available, which may include cash flow projections or other available market data, and is compared to its carrying value. An impairment is recognized immediately if the carrying value exceeds the fair value.
Long-lived assets
Fixed assets are recorded at historical cost. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of fixed assets at annual rates of 2 1 ⁄ 2 % to 5% for buildings, 7% to 10% for general purpose equipment and 10% to 33% for special purpose equipment.
Finite-lived intangible assets, which have arisen principally through acquisitions, include customer relationship intangibles, and patents and technology. Amortization of these finite-lived intangible assets is included within Amortization of acquired intangible assets. Amortization of other finite-lived intangible assets, including computer software and other licenses, is included within Depreciation. Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives which range from 4 to 15 years.
The Company assesses fixed and finite-lived intangible assets for recoverability whenever indicators of impairment exist. If the carrying value of the asset exceeds the estimated undiscounted cash flows from the use of the asset, then an impairment loss is recognized to write the asset down to fair value. The fair value of fixed and finite-lived intangible assets is generally determined using estimated discounted future cash flows.

Business combinations
The Company accounts for transactions in which it obtains control of a business in accordance with the acquisition method. The purchase price of an acquired business is allocated to its identifiable assets and liabilities based on estimated fair values at the date of the acquisition, and any excess is recorded as goodwill. During the measurement period, which may be up to one year following the acquisition date, the Company may record adjustments to assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Acquisition related costs incurred as a result of the business combination are expensed as incurred.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquired enterprise over the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed less any subsequent write-downs for impairment. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment in the fourth quarter of each year, or more frequently if indicators of potential impairment exist. The Company elects to directly assess goodwill impairment based on a comparison of the fair value of a reporting unit to the underlying carrying value of the reporting unit’s net assets, including goodwill. When the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment is recognized based on that difference. The fair value of a reporting unit is determined using its estimated discounted future cash flows.
Pre-Production Engineering and Tooling Costs Related to Long-Term Supply Agreements
The Company incurs pre-production engineering and tooling costs related to the products produced for its customers under long-term supply agreements. Customer reimbursements for pre-production engineering and tooling activities that are part of a long-term supply arrangement are accounted for as a reduction of cost. Pre-production costs related to long-term supply arrangements with a contractual guarantee for reimbursement and capitalized tooling are included in Other assets.
The Company expenses all pre-production engineering costs for which reimbursement is not contractually guaranteed by the customer. All tooling costs related to customer-owned tools for which reimbursement is not contractually guaranteed by the customer or for which the Company does not have a non-cancelable right to use the tooling are also expensed.
Warranty
The Company has assurance warranties and records product warranty liabilities based on its individual customer agreements. Under most customer agreements, the Company only accounts for existing or probable claims on product default issues when amounts related to such issues are probable and reasonably estimable. However, for certain products, the Company records an estimate of future warranty-related costs based on the terms of the specific customer agreements and/or the Company’s warranty experience. Product liability and recall provisions are established based on the Company’s best estimate of the amounts necessary to settle existing claims which typically take into account: the number of units that may be returned; the cost of the product being replaced; labour to remove and replace the defective part; and the customer’s administrative costs relating to the recall. Judgement is also required as to the ultimate negotiated sharing of the cost between the Company, the customer and, in some cases, a supplier to the Company.
When a decision to recall a product has been made or is probable, where applicable, the Company’s portion of the estimated cost of the recall is recorded as a charge to net income in that period. The Company monitors warranty activity on an ongoing basis and adjusts reserve balances when it is probable that future warranty costs will be different than those previously estimated.
Income taxes
The Company uses the liability method of tax allocation to account for income taxes. Under the liability method of tax allocation, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company assesses whether valuation allowances should be established or maintained against its deferred tax assets based on consideration of all available evidence using a “more-likely-than-not” standard. The factors the Company uses to assess the likelihood of realization are its history of losses, forecasts of future pre-tax income and tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize the deferred tax assets.

No deferred tax liability is recorded for taxes on undistributed earnings and translation adjustments of foreign subsidiaries if these items are considered to be reinvested for the foreseeable future, until it becomes apparent that such earnings will be distributed in the foreseeable future and the Company will incur further tax on remittance.
Recognition of uncertain tax positions is dependent on whether it is more-likely-than-not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is measured at the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense.
Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease or contains a lease at inception. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are considered short-term and are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company recognizes operating lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Operating lease right-of-use [“ROU”] assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. As the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable for the Company’s operating leases, an incremental borrowing rate is generally used to determine the present value of future lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate for each lease is based on the Company’s estimated borrowing rate over a similar term to that of the lease payments, adjusted for various factors including collateralization, location and currency.
The Company’s leases for manufacturing facilities are often subject to variable lease-related payments, such as escalation clauses based on consumer price index rates or other similar indices. Variable payments that are based on an index or a rate are included in the recognition of the Company’s ROU assets and lease liabilities using the index or rate at lease commencement. Subsequent changes to these lease payments due to rate or index updates are recorded as lease expense in the period incurred.
The Company’s lease agreements generally exclude non-lease components, and do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
Employee future benefit plans
The cost of providing benefits through defined benefit pensions, lump sum termination and long-term service payment arrangements, and post-retirement benefits other than pensions is actuarially determined and recognized in income using the projected benefit method pro-rated on service and management’s best estimate of expected plan investment performance, salary escalation, retirement ages of employees and, with respect to medical benefits, expected health care costs. Differences arising from plan amendments, changes in assumptions and experience gains and losses that are greater than 10% of the greater of: [i] the accrued benefit obligation at the beginning of the year; and [ii] the fair value [or market related value] of plan assets at the beginning of the year, are recognized in income over the expected average remaining service life of employees. Plan assets are valued at fair value. The cost of providing benefits through defined contribution pension plans is charged to income when contributions become payable.
The funded status of the plans is measured as the difference between the fair value of the plan assets and the projected benefit obligation [“PBO”]. The aggregate of all overfunded plans is recorded in other assets, and the aggregate of all underfunded plans is recorded in long-term employee benefit liabilities. The portion of the amount by which the actuarial present value of benefits included in the PBO exceeds the fair value of plan assets, payable in the next twelve months, is reflected in other accrued liabilities.

Revenue recognition
The Company enters into contracts with its customers to provide production parts or assembled vehicles. Contracts do not commit the customer to a specified quantity of products; however, the Company is generally required to fulfill its customers’ purchasing requirements for the production life of the vehicle. Contracts do not typically become a performance obligation until the Company receives a purchase order and a customer release for a specific number of parts or assembled vehicles at a specified price. While long-term supply agreements generally range from five to seven years, with some shorter or longer term agreements, contracts may be terminated by customers at any time. Historically, terminations have been infrequent. Contracts may also provide for annual price reductions over the production life of the vehicle, and prices are adjusted on an ongoing basis to reflect changes in product content/cost and other commercial factors.
Revenue is recognized at the point in time when control of the parts produced or assembled vehicles are transferred to the customer according to the terms of the contract. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration that the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those products based on purchase orders and ongoing price adjustments, some of which is accounted for as variable consideration. The Company uses the expected value method, taking into account historical data and the status of current negotiations, to estimate the amount to which it expects to be entitled. Significant changes to the Company’s estimates of variable consideration are not expected.
The Company’s complete vehicle assembly contracts with customers are complex and often include promises to transfer multiple products and services, some of which may be implicitly contracted. For these arrangements, each good or service is evaluated to determine whether it represents a distinct performance obligation, and whether it should be characterized as revenue or reimbursement of costs incurred. The total transaction price is then allocated to the distinct performance obligations based on the expected cost plus a margin approach and amounts related to revenue are recognized as discussed above.
The terms of the Company’s complete vehicle assembly contracts with customers differ with respect to the ownership of components related to the assembly process. Under contracts where the Company acts as principal, these contracts are accounted for on a full-cost basis under which purchased components in assembled vehicles are included in our inventory, accounts payable and cost of sales. These costs are reflected in the revenue recognized from the sale of the final assembled vehicle to the customer and are included in accounts receivable. Where a contract provides that the primary components are held on consignment by the Company, the revenue recognized principally reflects a value-added assembly fee.
The Company also performs engineering and tooling activities for its customers that are not part of a long-term production arrangement. Engineering and tooling revenue is recognized at a point in time or over time depending, among other considerations, on whether the Company has an enforceable right to payment plus a reasonable profit, for performance completed to date. Over-time recognition utilizes costs incurred to date relative to total estimated costs at completion, to measure progress toward satisfying performance obligations. Revenue is recognized as control is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods and services. For the year ended December 31, 2025, total engineering and tooling sales were $710 million [2024 - $1.1 billion].
The Company’s customers pay for products received in accordance with payment terms that are customary in the industry, primarily 30 to 90 days. The Company’s contracts with its customers do not have significant financing components.
Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on, and concurrent with, a specific revenue-producing transaction that are collected by the Company from a customer are excluded from revenue.
Contract Assets and Liabilities
The Company’s contract assets relate to the right to consideration for work completed but not yet billed and are included in Accounts Receivable. Amounts may not exceed their net realizable value. As at December 31, 2025, the Company’s unbilled accounts receivable balance was $977 million [2024 - $913 million]. Contract assets do not include the costs of obtaining or fulfilling a contract with a customer, as these amounts are generally expensed as incurred.
Customer advances are recorded as deferred revenue [a contract liability]. As at December 31, 2025 the contract liability balance was $454 million [2024 - $301 million]. As performance obligations were satisfied during 2025, the Company recognized $195 million [2024 - $228 million] of previously recorded contract liabilities into revenue.

Government assistance
The Company makes periodic applications for financial assistance under available government assistance programs in the various jurisdictions that the Company operates. Grants relating to capital expenditures are reflected as a reduction of the cost of the related assets. Grants relating to current operating expenditures may be deferred and recognized in the consolidated statement of income over the period necessary to match them with the costs that they are intended to compensate and are presented as a reduction of the related expense. The Company also receives tax credits and tax super deductions, the benefits of which are recorded as a reduction of income tax expense. In addition, the Company receives loans which are recorded as liabilities in amounts equal to the cash received. When a government loan is issued to the Company at a below-market rate of interest, the loan is initially recorded at its net present value and accreted to its face value over the period of the loan. The benefit of the below-market rate of interest is accounted for similar to a government grant and is measured as the difference between the initial carrying value of the loan and the cash proceeds received.
Research and development
Costs incurred in connection with research and development activities, to the extent not recoverable from the Company’s customers, are expensed as incurred. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, research and development costs charged to expense, net of reimbursements, were $792 million and $874 million, respectively.
Restructuring
Restructuring costs generally include employee termination benefits, as well as other costs resulting from restructuring actions. These actions may result in employees receiving voluntary or involuntary termination benefits, which are mainly pursuant to union or other contractual agreements or statutory requirements. Voluntary termination benefits are accrued when an employee accepts the related offer. Involuntary termination benefits are accrued upon the commitment to a termination plan and when liabilities are determined to be probable and estimable. Additional elements of severance and termination benefits associated with nonrecurring benefits may be recognized rateably over each employee’s required future service period. All other restructuring costs are expensed as incurred.
Earnings per Common Share
Basic earnings per Common Share are calculated on net income attributable to Magna International Inc. using the weighted average number of Common Shares outstanding during the year.
Diluted earnings per Common Share are calculated on the weighted average number of Common Shares outstanding, including an adjustment for stock-based compensation awards outstanding using the treasury stock method.

During 2025, the Company concluded that indicators of impairment were present for finite-lived intangible assets and goodwill in the Electronics reporting unit within our Power & Vision segment. The conclusion was based on lower than expected sales and reduced volume projections, reflecting slower growth relative to expectations. Contributing factors include OEM delays in sourcing cycles as they reassess vehicle architecture, as well as a change in market dynamics in China. Accordingly, the Company undertook impairment analyses to determine the fair value of the finite-lived intangible assets and goodwill utilizing estimated discounted cash flows to derive fair values. Based on the analyses, the carrying value of the reporting unit’s finite-lived intangible assets exceeded fair value by $212 million, and the carrying value of net assets exceeded the fair value of the reporting unit by $379 million. As a result, the Company recorded a $591 million [$554 million after tax] non-cash impairment charge. The finite-lived intangible asset impairment charges included $158 million related to patents and technology, and $54 million related to customer relationship intangibles. The inputs utilized in the analyses are classified as Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy as defined in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement”, and primarily consist of expected revenues and costs, estimated production volumes, future growth rates and the appropriate discount rates (based on weighted average cost of capital).
During 2025, the Company also recorded an impairment charge of $24 million [$24 million after tax] on fixed assets and other assets at a European facility in its Body Exteriors & Structures segment.

All values are in US Dollars.
The Company assessed goodwill impairment based on a comparison of each reporting unit’s fair value to the underlying carrying amount of net assets, including goodwill. Fair value of a reporting unit is determined using estimated discounted future cash flows, which involves significant estimates including forecasted production volumes and sales, discount rates, and terminal growth rates.
The Company reviewed goodwill for impairment as at December 31, 2025 and recorded an impairment charge within Other expense, net of $379 million related to a reporting unit within the Power & Vision segment. Refer to Note 4, Other expense, net for additional information.
The Company believes the assumptions used to estimate fair value are reasonable and appropriate, however the future financial performance of a reporting unit is dependent on the Company’s ability to realize its business plan, which is affected by future market and economic conditions. In addition, future changes in management’s assumptions and/or estimates could lead to different fair value estimates and potentially result in additional impairment charges.

| --- | --- |
The Company determines the estimated fair values of its financial instruments based on valuation methodologies it believes are appropriate; however, considerable judgement is required to develop these estimates. Accordingly, these estimated fair values are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize in a current market exchange. The estimated fair value amounts can be materially affected by the use of different assumptions or methodologies. The methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments are described below:
Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and short-term borrowings
Due to the short period to maturity of the instruments, the carrying values as presented in the consolidated balance sheets are reasonable estimates of fair values.
Publicly traded and private equity securities
The fair value of the Company’s investments in publicly traded equity securities is determined using the closing price on the measurement date, as reported on the stock exchange on which the securities are traded [Level 1 input based on the GAAP fair value hierarchy].
The Company estimates the value of its private equity securities based on valuation methods using the observable transaction price at the transaction date and other observable inputs including rights and obligations of the securities held by the Company [Level 3 input based on the GAAP fair value hierarchy].
Warrants
The Company estimates the value of its warrants based on the quoted prices in the active market for the common shares [Level 2 inputs based on the GAAP fair value hierarchy].
Term Loans
The Company’s Term Loans consist of advances in the form of 1, 3 or 6-month loans that may be rolled over until the end of the 3 and 5-year terms. Due to the short-term maturity of each loan, the carrying value as presented in the consolidated balance sheets is a reasonable estimate of its fair value.
Senior Notes
At December 31, 2025, the net book value and the estimated fair value of the Company’s Senior Notes were $4.7 billion. The fair value of our Senior Notes are classified as Level 1 when quoted prices in active markets are available and Level 2 when the quoted prices are from less active markets or when other observable inputs are used to determine fair value.

The Company’s financial assets that are exposed to credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, debt investments, and foreign exchange and commodity forward contracts with positive fair values. Cash and cash equivalents, which consist of short-term investments, are only invested in bank term deposits and bank commercial paper with an investment grade credit rating. Credit risk is further reduced by limiting the amount which is invested in certain major financial institutions.
The Company is also exposed to credit risk from the potential default by any of its counterparties on its foreign exchange forward contracts. The Company mitigates this credit risk by dealing with counterparties who are major financial institutions that the Company anticipates will satisfy their obligations under the contracts.
In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to credit risk from its customers, substantially all of which are in the automotive industry and are subject to credit risks associated with the automotive industry. For the year ended December 31, 2025, sales to the Company’s six largest customers represented 76% [2024 - 73%] of the Company’s total sales; and substantially all of its sales are to customers with which the Company has ongoing contractual relationships. The Company conducts business with newer electric vehicle-focused customers, which poses incremental credit risk due to their relatively short operating histories; limited financial resources; less mature product development and validation processes; uncertain market acceptance of their products/services; and untested business models. These factors may elevate the Company’s risks in dealing with such customers, particularly with respect to recovery of: pre-production (including tooling, engineering, and launch) and production receivables; inventory; fixed assets and capitalized preproduction expenditures; as well as other third party obligations related to such items. As at December 31, 2025, the Company’s balance sheet exposure related to newer electric vehicle-focused customers was approximately $200 million [2024 – $300 million]. In determining the allowance for expected credit losses, the Company considers changes in customers’ credit ratings, liquidity, customers’ historical payments and loss experience, current economic conditions, and the Company’s expectations of future economic conditions. For the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, sales to these customers represented less than 5% of the Company’s total sales.
| [g] | Currency risk |
|---|
The Company is exposed to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates when manufacturing facilities have committed to the delivery of products for which the selling price has been quoted in currencies other than the facilities’ functional currency, and when materials and equipment are purchased in currencies other than the facilities’ functional currency. In an effort to manage this net foreign exchange exposure, the Company employs hedging programs, primarily through the use of foreign exchange forward contracts [note 23[a]] .
| [h] | Interest rate risk |
|---|
The Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk due to the short-term maturity of its monetary current assets and current liabilities. In particular, the amount of interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents is impacted more by investment decisions made and the demands to have available cash on hand than by movements in interest rates over a given period.
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its Term Loans as the interest rate is variable; however, the Company is not exposed to interest rate risk on Senior Notes as the interest rates are fixed.
| [i] | Equity price risk |
|---|
Public equity securities and warrants
The Company’s public equity securities and warrants are subject to market price risk due to the risk of loss in value that would result from a decline in the market price of the common shares or underlying common shares.

- CONTINGENCIES
From time to time, the Company may become involved in regulatory proceedings, or become liable for legal, contractual and other claims by various parties, including customers, suppliers, former employees, class action plaintiffs and others. On an ongoing basis, the Company attempts to assess the likelihood of any adverse judgements or outcomes to these proceedings or claims, together with potential ranges of probable costs and losses. A determination of the provision required, if any, for these contingencies is made after analysis of each individual issue. The required provision may change in the future due to new developments in each matter or changes in approach such as a change in settlement strategy in dealing with these matters.
In the first quarter of 2025, management identified a potential exposure related to the reassessment of certain prior tax periods. This was a result of the proposed retroactive application of a 2023 judicial decision to tax periods prior to the date of the ruling within a jurisdiction in which the Company operates. This exposure pertained to previously claimed refundable value added tax amounts, as well as associated interest, penalties, and other charges. During the third quarter, the Company negotiated a resolution to this matter and paid an amount during the fourth quarter, which is not considered material.
In December 2023, the Company received a notification [the “Notification Letter”] from Ford Motor Company [“Ford”] informing the Company as to its initial determination that one of the Company’s operating groups bore responsibility for costs totaling $352 million related to two product recalls. The Notification Letter triggered negotiations regarding financial allocation of the total costs for the two recalls. During the fourth quarter, the Company reached a commercial resolution with respect to this matter, which resulted in a payment to the customer of $132 million.
In the third quarter of 2025, Ford initiated recalls covering approximately 3.8 million vehicles equipped with rearview cameras or image processing modules supplied by the Company. Ford also announced a new 15-year extended warranty program for up to approximately 14.9 million vehicles also equipped with rearview cameras supplied by us. Ford is claiming approximately $288 million in costs related to these recalls and warranty claims. Additional recalls and/or extended warranty programs remain possible. The Company is in technical and commercial discussions with Ford, however, at this time, root cause determinations have not been made and/or confirmed for the vehicles covered by Ford’s recalls and warranty extension program. Even after root cause(s) have been determined, other challenges make it difficult to fully quantify the Company’s potential financial exposure, if any. These challenges include: integration with other vehicle systems and non-camera components; the age of affected vehicles; duration of the original warranty; number of affected vehicles brought to Ford dealers for inspection; and dealer discretion to determine the nature of the remedy to be applied, which may range from software upgrades, inspection of the rearview camera and other components, repairs, or replacement of the rearview camera. In the absence of certainty as to the scope of potentially affected vehicles, the root cause(s) of the alleged product failures, and/or the related costs of service actions, the Company is unable to fully estimate its potential exposure, if any, for recall-related costs and the extension of product warranties by Ford to affected vehicle owners. If the Company is determined to be fully or partially responsible for defective rearview cameras, the related recall and extended warranty costs could be material to the Company’s profitability in the period(s) in which such costs are recognized or provided for.
As a result of the bankruptcy of Fisker, Inc., owners of Fisker Ocean SUVs have asserted claims for alleged vehicle defects and breaches of state “lemon laws” against J.P. Morgan Chase, N.A. [“Chase”], the direct financer of approximately 2,000 such vehicles in the United States. Chase has indicated that it will seek indemnification from the Company, as contract manufacturer, for damages and legal costs incurred with the resolution of these claims. As the number, details and amount of these claims are all currently unknown, it is too early to determine the Company’s potential liability, if any, at this time.

The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the Chief Executive Officer. The chief operating decision maker uses Adjusted Earnings before Interest and Income Taxes [“Adjusted EBIT”] as the measure of segment profit or loss, since management believes Adjusted EBIT is the most appropriate measure of operational profitability or loss for its reporting segments. The chief operating decision maker uses Adjusted EBIT to assess operating performance, allocate resources, and to help plan the Company’s long-term strategic direction and future global growth. Adjusted EBIT is calculated by taking Net income and adding back Amortization of acquired intangible assets, Income taxes, Interest expense, net and Other expense, net.
The accounting policies of each segment are the same as those set out under “Significant Accounting Policies” [note 2]. All intersegment sales and transfers are accounted for at fair market value.
