Commitments and Contingencies
On November 17, 2025, we entered into a lease for a new Global Innovation headquarters facility that will be built in Bridgewater, New Jersey, where we currently lease another facility for research and operations. When the Global Innovation headquarters construction is substantially complete and ready for our use, which we estimate will be in the first half of 2028, subject to environmental conditions, structural dependencies and regulatory approvals, we will begin lease
payments for a term of 25 years. Lease payments will be primarily based on the cost to construct the facility, which we estimate will be approximately $145 million.
We file to recover previously taxable local government tax incentives in Brazil when we believe that the recovery w be probable. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, we had $21 million and $39 million of remaining tax incentives, which have decreased due to use of the tax credits. We expect to use a portion of these credits within one year. As of December 31, 2025, $15 million was recorded in Accounts receivable, net and $6 million in Other non-current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
We are currently subject to claims and suits arising in the ordinary course of business, including workplace and labor matters, asbestos related claims, environmental proceedings and other commercial claims. We also routinely receive inquiries from regulators and other government authorities relating to various aspects of our business, including with respect to compliance with laws and regulations relating to the environment, and at any given time we have matters at various stages of resolution with the applicable governmental authorities. The outcomes of these matters are not within our complete control and may not be known for prolonged periods. We do not believe that the results of currently known legal proceedings and inquires will be material to us. There can be no assurance, however, that such proceedings, matters, claims, suits or investigations or those arising in the future, whether taken individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

About Commitments Disclosures

Commitments and contingencies disclosures catalog a company's off-balance-sheet obligations and legal exposures — purchase commitments, guarantee arrangements, pending litigation, and regulatory proceedings. These items represent potential future cash outflows that may not appear as liabilities on the balance sheet until they become probable and estimable.

Key signals: litigation reserves and disclosed loss ranges quantify management's estimate of legal exposure, but unquantified "reasonably possible" losses often represent the larger risk. Watch for changes in language around pending cases — shifts from "remote" to "reasonably possible" or increases in estimated loss ranges signal deteriorating outcomes. Unconditional purchase obligations and take-or-pay contracts create fixed cost structures that reduce operational flexibility. Guarantee arrangements for subsidiaries or joint ventures can create cascading obligations. Compare the total commitment schedule against projected free cash flow to assess whether the company can meet its obligations without additional financing.
