On April 30, 2026, Textron announced its intent to separate its Industrial segment, composed of Kautex and Textron Specialized Vehicles, from the Company’s core aerospace and defense businesses to enhance its strategic and operational focus and drive long-term value for stakeholders.

There can be no assurance regarding the ultimate timing or structure of the proposed separation or that a transaction will be completed.
