The SEC declared Gentherm's S-4 and SpinCo's Form 10 effective on August 12, 2026, and the definitive proxy statement was mailed the same day. Shareholders will vote September 10 on issuing approximately 20.8 million shares — worth roughly $882 million at current prices — to acquire Modine's Performance Technologies business. This moves the Reverse Morris Trust merger from planning to execution: the vote is now a hard, dated event, and the share issuance represents meaningful dilution for existing holders. The presentation also reiterates the $400 million buyback authorization and raised 2026 guidance, but those were already disclosed on July 23.
