05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities

ITEM 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. On October 2, 2025, the management team of Trinseo PLC (the "Company"), upon authorization from the Company's Board of Directors, approved a restructuring plan to permanently close its methyl methacrylate (MMA) production operations in Rho, Italy and its acetone cyanohydrin (ACH) production operations in Porto Marghera, Italy (the "MMA Restructuring Plan"). The MMA Restructuring Plan is intended to streamline the company's MMA production network and exit underperforming assets. Moving forward, the company will source all MMA feedstock from third-party producers. The Company expects to record total pre-tax restructuring charges of $80 million to $100 million, principally comprised of $3 million to $6 million of employee-related costs, $40 million to $46 million of asset-related charges and $37 million to $48 million related to exiting production activities, including contract terminations, demolition and decommissioning. The anticipated future cash payments associated with these charges are expected to be approximately $40 million to $50 million with substantially all payments expected to be made by the end of 2028. The Company expects the MMA Restructuring Plan actions to commence in the fourth quarter of 2025 and be completed by the end of 2026, subject to the satisfaction of local law requirements. However, the actual timing and costs of the MMA Restructuring Plan may differ from the Company's current expectations and estimates and such differences may be material since these charges are subject to ongoing negotiations with works councils, industrial associations and government authorities. The Company estimates that the MMA Restructuring Plan initiatives will deliver approximately $20 million of annualized profitability improvement beginning in 2026. A copy of the Company's press release announcing the MMA Restructuring Plan is filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by refer
