TRIUMPH ADOPTS TAX BENEFITS PRESERVATION PLAN TO PROTECT VALUABLE TAX ASSETS

BERWYN, Pa., March 11, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Triumph Group, Inc. ("Triumph") [NYSE: TGI] today announced that in light of the expiration of its current rights plan, its Board of Directors has adopted a new tax benefits preservation plan (the "Plan") designed to preserve Triumph's ability to utilize its net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes (collectively, "Tax Benefits"). The Plan is similar to the tax benefits preservation plan of Triumph dated as of March 13, 2019 (the "Expiring Plan") and plans adopted by other public companies with significant Tax Benefits, and is designed to continue to preserve the benefit of Triumph's Tax Benefits. The Company intends to submit the Plan for stockholder approval at the Company's next annual meeting of stockholders.

In connection with the expiration of the Expiring Plan, the Company will take routine steps to delist each right under the Expiring Plan from trading on the New York Stock Exchange. These actions are administrative in nature and will have no effect on the Company's common stock, which continues to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

Triumph estimates that it will have Tax Benefits, including net operating losses, capital losses, research tax credits, foreign tax credits and disallowed business interest expense carryovers, approximating $326.4 million as of March 31, 2022. The purpose of the Plan is to preserve Triumph's ability to use its Tax Benefits, which would be substantially limited if Triumph experienced an "ownership change" as defined under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. The adoption of the Plan is intended to ensure that the Company will be able to utilize its Tax Benefits.

Details of the Plan will be communicated in a current report on Form 8-K to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. A copy of the Plan can also be found on Triumph's website at http://www.triumphgroup.com.
