01. Other Events

Item 8.01. Other Events. On August 29, 2024, the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, IPG Laser GmbH & Co. KG, completed the sale of the Company's Russian subsidiary, Scientific and Technical Association "IRE-Polus", pursuant to a share purchase agreement with a purchaser entity associated with Softline Projects LLC and current management of IRE-Polus. The proceeds from the transaction are $51 million before advisory and other fees. The sale of IRE-Polus includes the entirety of the Company's operations in Russia, including the Company's manufacturing sites in Fryazino, Russia. The Company expects to record total estimated charges of $195 million to $210 million. Of these total estimated charges, $60 million to $65 million relates to the carrying value of net assets of IRE-Polus that is in excess of net proceeds received on the sale and $135 million to $145 million relates to the cumulative translation adjustment component of other comprehensive income that is included in shareholders equity. These losses will be recorded during the third quarter of 2024 in connection with the transaction. As previously disclosed, as a result of the Russia-Ukraine conflict and related sanctions, the Company's ability to ship and receive components from its Russian operations was significantly curtailed. In response, the Company expanded its manufacturing capacity in Germany, the United States and Italy, and added new manufacturing capacity in Poland which effectively offset its inability to utilize the Russian operations. The Company expects that this sale will reduce third quarter revenue as compared to previously provided guidance by approximately $5 million. IRE-Polus revenue accounts for less than 5% of the Company's full-year revenue. The Company does not expect to provide any further information regarding the transaction until it reports earnings results for the third quarter. On August 29, 2024, the Company issued a press release announcing the sale of IRE-Pol
