(a)    Restructuring charges:

    Our restructuring activities consisted primarily of actions to adjust our cost base to address reduced levels of demand in certain of our businesses and geographies. Our restructuring charges in each of 2023, 2024 and 2025 consisted primarily of cash charges related to employee terminations, and in 2025 also included accelerated depreciation of equipment related to disengaging programs. See notes 2(k) and 10 for further details regarding our restructuring provisions.     

(b)    Transition Costs (Recoveries):
    Transition Costs consist of costs recorded in connection with: (i) the transfer of manufacturing lines from closed sites to other sites within our global network; (ii) the sale of real properties unrelated to restructuring actions (Property Dispositions); and (iii) specified charges or recoveries related to the Purchaser Lease (defined below). Transition Costs consist of direct relocation and duplicate costs (such as rent expense, utility costs, depreciation charges, and personnel costs) incurred during the transition periods, as well as cease-use and other costs incurred in connection with idle or vacated portions of the relevant premises that we would not have incurred but for these relocations, transfers and dispositions. Transition Recoveries consist of any gains recorded in connection with Property Dispositions.
In March 2019, as part of our Toronto real property sale, we entered into a 10-year lease with the purchaser of such property for our then-anticipated headquarters, to be built by such purchaser on the site of our former location (Purchaser Lease). Due to a number of construction-related commencement date delays, in November 2022, we extended (on a long-term basis) the lease on our current corporate headquarters and recorded the related ROU assets and lease liabilities. In 2023 and 2025, we executed sublease agreements for the space under the Purchaser Lease. The Purchaser Lease commenced in June 2024 and related ROU assets and lease liabilities were recognized in our consolidated financial statements. We recorded Transition Costs of $0.4 in 2025 (2024 — $4.3; 2023 — $0.8) related to the sublet of the Purchaser Lease.
(c)    Other charges (recoveries):
In 2025, we recorded other charges of $1.4 related to our transition as a U.S. domestic filer (2024 — $2.3). In 2025, we recorded legal recoveries of $0.8 in connection with the settlements of class action lawsuits in which we were a plaintiff (2024 — $1.3; 2023 — $2.7). In 2023, we also recorded an aggregate of $1.8 of costs, substantially all of which consisted of fees and expenses of the Secondary Offerings (see note 12).
