Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On November 8, 2024 we issued a press release announcing third quarter of 2024 results. A copy of the press release is included in this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and is furnished herewith.

Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.

On November 8, 2024, certain subsidiaries of Koppers Holdings Inc. (Koppers, the Company, we or us) committed to a workforce reduction program across the U.S., which is intended to streamline operations and reduce cost.

This workforce reduction program will result in the reallocation of people and resources, which will include voluntary and involuntary reductions in employees. The first stage of reductions will be carried out through a voluntary exit program that will give eligible employees the option of taking a separation package that will include enhanced severance benefits consisting of cash and health and welfare coverage. The voluntary program will first be offered to approximately 90 employees in the U.S. The voluntary program is expected to reduce the number of involuntary separations.

At this time, we have not fully defined all of the specific cost reduction actions that may be taken. As such, while the charges and associated cash payments are expected to be material in the aggregate, we are unable at this time to make a good faith determination of the cost estimates, or ranges of cost estimates, associated with actions to be implemented. We expect to incur pre-tax restructuring charges including but not limited to employee severance and related benefit costs. We also expect to incur consulting and other professional service fees to help execute these actions as well as for the design and implementation of the future structures and processes.

In accordance with paragraph (d) of Item 2.05, the Company will timely file an amendment(s) to this Current Report on Form 8-K after its determination of such additional cost estimates or ranges of cost estimates. These cost reduction initiatives are expected to be substantially complete by the end of the first quarter of 2025. Future actions by the Company or changes in circumstances from current assumptions may cause actual results to differ.

Safe Harbor Statement

Certain statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and may include, but are not limited to, statements about sales levels, acquisitions, restructuring, cost reduction efforts, declines in the value of Koppers assets and the effect of any resulting impairment charges, profitability and anticipated expenses and cash outflows. All forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results, performance or achievements may differ materially from anticipated results, performance or achievements. Factors that might affect such forward-looking statements include, among other

Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On May 3, 2024 we issued a press release announcing first quarter 2024 results. A copy of the press release is included in this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and is furnished herewith.

Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

We held our Annual Meeting of Shareholders on May 2, 2024 (the “Annual Meeting”). At the Annual Meeting, our shareholders approved the adoption of an amendment to our Third Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”) to allow for exculpation of officers as permitted by Pennsylvania law (the “Officer Exculpation Proposal”), as further described under Item 5.07 below.

As a result of the shareholders’ approval of the Officer Exculpation Proposal, effective May 2, 2024, the Bylaws were amended to add Section 5.10, which provides that our officers shall not be personally liable, as such, for monetary damages for any action taken, or any failure to take any action, unless (i) the officer has breached or failed to perform the duties of an officer under Subchapter C of Chapter 17 of the Pennsylvania Associations Code of 1988, and (ii) the breach or failure to perform constitutes self-dealing, willful misconduct or recklessness. This provision does not apply to (i) the responsibility or liability of an officer pursuant to any criminal statute, or (ii) the liability of an officer for the payment of taxes pursuant to federal, state or local law.

The foregoing summary of the amendment to the Bylaws does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the amendment to the Bylaws, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

Four matters were considered and voted upon at the Annual Meeting: (1) the election of ten persons to serve on our Board of Directors; (2) the Officer Exculpation Proposal; (3) an advisory resolution to approve named executive officer compensation; and (4) the ratification of the appointment of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2024.

Election of Directors: Nominations of Leroy M. Ball, Xudong Feng, Ph.D., Traci L. Jensen, David L. Motley, Albert J. Neupaver, Andrew D. Sandifer, Louis L. Testoni, Stephen R. Tritch, Nishan J. Vartanian and Sonja M. Wilkerson to serve as directors for one-year terms expiring in 2025 were considered, and all nominees were elected. All nominees received a majority of votes cast.
