**EXHIBIT 99.1**

**Compass Diversified Announces Extension of Credit Agreement Forbearance**

*WESTPORT, Conn., November 3, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE)* – Compass Diversified (NYSE: CODI) ("CODI") announced today that its senior secured lender group has extended to November 10, 2025 the due date for CODI to publish its restated financial results for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022, 2023 and 2024. CODI is in active conversations with its senior lender group regarding a formal forbearance extension that will provide additional time to complete the restatement process. This extension is expected to be finalized in the near term.

CODI continues to make progress toward completing the investigation into financial and accounting irregularities at its Lugano Holding Inc. subsidiary ("Lugano"), and the related restatement of its historical financial statements. The investigation is isolated to Lugano and does not involve any of CODI's other subsidiaries, which continue to deliver solid operating performance.

"We are nearing the end of a highly complex restatement process as we unwind a sophisticated financial and accounting fraud perpetrated by Lugano's founder and former CEO," said Elias Sabo, CEO of CODI. "As we move closer to completion, our focus remains on maximizing value for our stakeholders and driving strong performance across the rest of our businesses. We appreciate the continued patience and support of all our stakeholders as we bring this process to a close."

Such forward looking statements may be identified by, among other things, the use of forward-looking terminology such as "believe," "expect," "may," "could," "would," "plan," "intend," "estimate," "predict," "potential," "continue," "should" or "anticipate" or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy that involve risks and uncertainties. These statements are based on beliefs and assumptions by the Board of Directors and management, and on information currently available to CODI's Board of Directors and management.
