 our business and Beacon;

•difficulties in retaining key management and other key employees; and

•the challenge of managing the expanded operations of a significantly larger and more complex company and coordinating geographically separate organizations.

As a result of the Beacon Acquisition, we expect to realize certain synergies and cost savings. Any synergies and cost savings that we realize may differ materially from our estimates and involve risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such estimates. This information is speculative in nature, and some or all of the assumptions underlying the estimated synergies and cost savings may not materialize or may vary from actual results. Our ability to realize these anticipated synergies and savings is subject to significant uncertainties and you should not place undue reliance on the adjustments in evaluating our anticipated results.

We have incurred substantial expenses to consummate the Beacon Acquisition but may not realize the anticipated benefits. In addition, even if we are able to integrate Beacon successfully, the anticipated benefits of the Beacon Acquisition may not be realized fully, or at all, or may take longer to realize than expected. Given the size and significance of the Beacon Acquisition, we may encounter difficulties in the integration of the operations of Beacon and may fail to realize the full benefits and synergies of the Beacon Acquisition, which could adversely impact our business, results of operation and financial condition.

Beacon may have liabilities that are not known to us.

Beacon may have liabilities that we failed, or were unable, to discover in the course of performing our due diligence investigations of Beacon. We cannot assure you that the indemnification available to us under the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of March 20, 2025 (the “Merger Agreement”) in respect of the Beacon Acquisition will be sufficient in amount, scope or duration to fully offset the possible liabilities associated with the business of Beacon or property that we assumed upon consummation of the Beacon Acquisition. We may learn additional information about Beacon that materially adversely affects us, such as unknown or contingent liabilities and liabilities related to compliance with applicable laws. Any such liabilities, individually or in the aggregate, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Acquisition accounting adjustments could adversely affect our financial results.

We will account for the completion of the Beacon Acquisition using the acquisition method of accounting. We will allocate the total estimated purchase price to net tangible assets, amortizable intangible assets and indefinite-lived intangible
