**ADVANTAGE SOLUTIONS INC.**

**NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**(UNAUDITED)**

**1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies**

Advantage Solutions Inc. (the "Company") is a provider of outsourced solutions to consumer goods companies and retailers. The Company's Class A common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol "ADV" and warrants to purchase the Class A common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share are listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol "ADVWW".

*Basis of Presentation*

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2024 was derived from the audited Consolidated Balance Sheet at that date and does not include all the disclosures required by GAAP. In the opinion of management, all adjustments which are of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair statement of the results as of June 30, 2025 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 have been reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024 and the related footnotes thereto. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected during the remainder of the current year or for any future period.

As of January 1, 2024, the Company reorganized its portfolio of businesses into a new, simplified structure that more closely aligns its business capabilities with economic buyers. The Company's revised operating and reportable segments consist of Branded Services, Experiential Services, and Retailer Services. As a result of this reorganization, the Company identified non-core businesses for disposition ("Divestiture Plan"). In the first quarter of fiscal year 2024, the Company determined its Divestiture Plan met the criteria for discontinued operations as it represented a strategic shift that had a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results. As such, the results of businesses meeting the criteria to be classified as held for sale or disposed of in accordance with the Company's Divestiture Plan were reclassified to discontinued operations. Refer to Note 2—*Discontinued Operations* for additional information on the Company's discontinued operations.

Certain prior period balances related to the Company's discontinued operations have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements are presented on a continuing operations basis unless otherwise noted. Refer to Note 2—*Discontinued Operations* for additional information on the Company's discontinued operations.

*Revenue Recognition* 

The Company recognizes revenue when control of promised goods or services is transferred to the client in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for such goods or services. Substantially all of the Company's contracts with clients involve the transfer of a service to the client, which represents a performance obligation that is satisfied over time because the client simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the services provided. In most cases, the contracts provide for a performance obligation that is comprised of a series of distinct services that are substantially the same and that have the same pattern of transfer (i.e., distinct days of service). For these contracts, the Company allocates the ratable portion of the consideration based on the services provided in each period of service to such period.

Revenues related to the Branded Services segment are primarily recognized in the form of commissions, fee-for-service and cost-plus fees for providing headquarter relationship management, execution of merchandising strategies and omni-commerce marketing services. Revenues within the Branded Services segment are further disaggregated between brokerage services, branded merchandising services and omni-commerce marketing services. Brokerage services revenues are primarily outsourced sales and services for branded consumer goods manufacturers at retailer headquarters, in-store and online. Branded merchandising services relate to merchandising in-store and online for

------

branded consumer goods manufacturers. Omni-commerce marketing services primarily relate to digital and field marketing services.

Experiential Services segment revenues are primarily recognized in the form of fee-for-service and cost-plus fees for providing in-store, digital sampling and demonstrations, where the Company manages highly customized, large-scale sampling programs for leading brands and retailers.

Retailer Services segment revenues are primarily recognized in the form of commissions, fee-for-service and cost-plus fees for providing consulting services related to private brand development, the execution of merchandising strategies and marketing strategies within retailer locations, including retail media networks and analyzing shopper behavior. Revenues within the Retailer Services segment are further disaggregated between advisory services, retailer merchandising services and agency services to retailers. Advisory services primarily consist of consulting services related to private brand development. Retailer merchandising services primarily relate to the execution of merchandising strategies. Agency services primarily consist of providing marketing strategies within retail locations.

Disaggregated revenues were as follows:

Contract liabilities represent deferred revenues, which are cash payments that are received in advance of the Company's satisfaction of the applicable obligation and are included in Deferred revenues in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Deferred revenues are recognized as revenues when the related services are performed for the client. Revenues recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 that were included in Deferred revenues as of December 31, 2024 were $5.1 million and $15.8 million, respectively. Revenues recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 included in Deferred revenues as of December 31, 2023 were $3.5 million and $16.8 million, respectively.

*Accounting Standards Recently Issued but Not Yet Adopted by the Company* 

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-09, *Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures*, which requires entities to expand their existing income tax disclosures, specifically related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The standard is effective for the Company's annual report for fiscal year 2025. The new standard is expected to be applied prospectively, but retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, *Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses* ("ASU 2024-03"), and in January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, *Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense* 

------

*Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date* ("ASU 2025-01"). ASU 2024-03 requires public entities to disclose additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to the financial statements on an interim and annual basis. ASU 2024-03, as clarified by ASU 2025-01, is effective for the Company beginning in fiscal year 2026 and interim periods within fiscal year 2027, with early adoption permitted. The new standard is expected to be applied prospectively, but retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2024-03 on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Other new accounting pronouncements recently issued or newly effective were not applicable to the Company, did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements or are not expected to have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

**2. Discontinued Operations**

*2024 Divestitures*

As discussed in Note 1 - *Organization and Significant Accounting Policies*, as a result of a reorganization effectuated on January 1, 2024, the Company initiated a Divestiture Plan of certain non-core businesses for disposition. On January 31, 2024, and as part of this plan, the Company sold a collection of foodservice businesses. As part of the sale, the foodservice businesses were combined with an entity owned by the buyer, with the Company receiving approximately $91.0 million, subject to working capital adjustments and an ongoing 7.5% interest in the combined business. The ongoing ownership interest represents a continuing involvement which the Company has determined represents an equity method investment. Upon the close of the transaction, the retained 7.5% interest was recognized at fair value of $8.4 million, valued using unobservable inputs (i.e., Level 3 inputs), primarily discounted cash flows.

The investment is reported in "Investments in unconsolidated affiliates" on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and equity income (loss) reported in "(Income) loss from equity method investments" on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. Transactions between the Company and the combined foodservice entity are considered to be related-party transactions subsequent to the divesture.

During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company sold two agencies in the Branded Services segment, one agency in the Experiential Services segment and one agency in the Retailer Services segment for $65.2 million including estimated working capital adjustments. As a result, the Company recorded a gain from these divestitures of $13.2 million and $70.2 million, respectively, as a component of "Net income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. Proceeds from the sales were classified as cash provided by investing activities from continuing operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Also in accordance with the Divestiture Plan, as of June 30, 2024, certain assets and liabilities of the Jun Group business were classified as held for sale. On July 31, 2024, the Company completed the sale of the Jun Group business in exchange for proceeds of approximately $185.0 million less any adjustments. The Company received approximately $130.0 million in cash upon completion of the sale. As part of the purchase agreement, the buyer has agreed to remit the remaining consideration to the Company in two additional installments of $22.5 million ($27.5 million less $5.0 million estimated adjustments) and $27.5 million, 12 and 18 months, respectively, after the completion of the sale. On July 31, 2025, the Company received approximately $22.5 million in cash for the first installment. As of June 30, 2025, both the first and second installment amounts of approximately $50.0 million, in aggregate, is reflected in "Prepaid expenses and other current assets" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

**3. Goodwill and Intangible Assets**

The carrying amount of goodwill as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $477.0 million. Accumulated impairment losses related to goodwill were $2.3 billion of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company determined a triggering event occurred and an impairment assessment was warranted for the Branded Agencies reporting unit goodwill due to the pending sale of one of the businesses that comprised a substantial portion of the assets, liabilities and prospective cash flows of the Branded Agencies reporting unit. As a result of the impairment test performed, the Company recognized a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $99.7 million related to the Company's Branded Agencies reporting unit goodwill during the three months ended June 30, 2024, which has been reflected in "Impairment of goodwill" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive (Loss) Income. As a result of this charge, an immaterial amount of goodwill remains in this reporting unit.

In April 2024, the Company amended its secured first lien term loan credit facility (as amended from time to time (the "Term Loan Facility") to reduce the applicable interest rate margin (a) from 4.50% to 4.25% for SOFR loans or (b) from 3.50% to 3.25% for base rate loans. The Term Loan Facility bears interest at a floating rate of Term SOFR plus an applicable margin of 4.25% per annum, subject to an additional spread adjustment on SOFR ranging from 0.11% to 0.26%. Interest on the 6.5% Senior Secured Notes due 2028 (the "Notes") is payable semi-annually in arrears at a rate of 6.50% per annum.

The Company was in compliance with all of its affirmative and negative covenants under the Term Loan Facility and Notes as of June 30, 2025. In addition, the Company is required to repay the principal under the Term Loan Facility in the greater amount of its excess cash flow, as such term is defined in the agreement governing the Term Loan Facility, or $13.3 million, per annum, in quarterly payments. The Company made the minimum quarterly principal payments of $3.3 million and $6.6 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. No payments under the excess cash flow calculation were required in such periods.

The Company voluntarily repurchased an aggregate of $20.0 million principal amount of the Notes during the first quarter of 2025 and recognized a gain on the repurchase of $1.8 million. The Company did not make any voluntary repurchases during the three months ended June 30, 2025. The Company voluntarily repurchased an aggregate of $26.5 million and $77.5 million principal amount of the Notes during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and recognized a gain on the repurchase of $2.4 million and $5.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. Gains on the repurchase of the Notes were recognized as a component of "Interest expense, net" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss for all periods presented.

As of June 30, 2025, the Company had no borrowings under its senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $500.0 million, subject to borrowing base capacity (as may be amended from time to time, the "Revolving Credit Facility"). All borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are subject to the satisfaction of certain customary conditions. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a floating rate, which at the option of the Company may be either (i) a base rate or Canadian Prime Rate plus an applicable margin of 0.75%, 1.00%, or 1.25% per annum or (ii) Term SOFR or Alternative Currency Spread plus an applicable margin of 1.75%, 2.00% or 2.25% per annum. The Company is required to pay a commitment fee ranging from 0.250% to 0.375% per annum in respect of the average daily unused commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility.

**5. Fair Value of Financial Instruments**

The Company measures fair value based on the prices that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements are based on a three-tier hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

The following table sets forth the Company's financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis at fair value, categorized by input level within the fair value hierarchy.

The Company had interest rate collar contracts with an aggregate notional value of principal of $700.0 million as of June 30, 2025, from various financial institutions to manage the Company's exposure to interest rate movements on variable rate credit facilities. The interest rate collar contracts will mature on April 5, 2026, 2027 and 2028.

As of June 30, 2025, the fair value of the Company's outstanding interest collars of $1.2 million was included in "Other long-term liabilities" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2024 the fair value of the Company's outstanding interest rate caps and collars of $0.8 million was included in "Other assets" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in fair value of the Company's outstanding interest rate caps and collars are recognized as a component of "Interest expense, net" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

During the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded a loss of $0.4 million and a gain of $1.2 million, respectively, within "Interest expense, net," related to changes in the fair value of its derivative instruments. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded a loss of $2.0 million and a gain of $5.4 million, respectively, within "Interest expense, net", related to changes in the fair value of its derivative instruments.

**6. Related Party Transactions**

An officer of the Company serves as a member of the board of directors of a client of the Company. The Company recognized $1.2 million of revenues from such client during each of the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. The Company recognized $2.5 million of revenues from such client during each of the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. Accounts receivable from this client were $0.7 million and $0.4 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

Prior to April 1, 2025, a member of the board of directors of the Company served as an officer of a client of the Company. The Company recognized $2.3 million of revenues from such client during the three months ended June 30, 2024. The Company recognized $2.2 million and $3.9 million of revenues from such client during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Accounts receivable from this client was $0.2 million as of December 31, 2024.

*Unconsolidated Affiliates*

During the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized revenues of an immaterial amount and $4.8 million, respectively, from its investment in unconsolidated affiliates. During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized revenues of $2.6 million and $11.3 million, respectively, from its

------

investment in unconsolidated affiliates. Accounts receivable from transactions with unconsolidated affiliates were $1.1 million and $0.9 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

**7. Income Taxes**

The Company's effective tax rate was (17.9%) and 13.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company's effective tax rate was (15.7%) and 16.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 differs from the statutory rate due to the additional tax expense associated with a valuation allowance on disallowed interest expense carryforwards, non-deductible stock based compensation and tax expense associated with withholding tax on earnings in Canada that the Company repatriated during the second quarter.

The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 differs from the statutory rate due to the impact of an impairment of goodwill that is non-deductible for tax purposes.

On July 4, 2025, H.R. 1 – One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBB") was signed into law, which includes significant changes to the U.S. federal tax code. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the OBBB on the condensed consolidated financial statements and the Company's estimated annual effective tax rate for fiscal year 2025. Pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification 740: *Income Taxes*, the impact of enacted tax legislation should be recognized in the period of enactment and, as such, the financial statement impact of OBBB, if any, will be recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2025.

**8. Segments**

The Company's reportable segments, consisting of Branded Services, Experiential Services, and Retailer Services, are the segments of the Company for which separate financial information are evaluated regularly by the Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"), a position currently held by the Company's Chief Executive Officer, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.

The CODM utilizes segment operating income to assess the performance and allocate resources to each segment. The CODM is not provided asset information by reportable segment.

(1) Reimbursable expenses are costs incurred in the delivery of services to the Company's clients that the client has agreed to reimburse, including media, sample, retailer fees and other marketing and production costs.

(2) The "other segment items" category primarily consists of costs incurred in the execution of service obligations, including supplies, technology, and other direct expenses such as travel and indirect general and administrative expenses such as professional fees. These costs align with the segment-level information regularly provided to the CODM and represent the difference between revenue and the significant expense categories above in determining segment profitability.

**9. Commitments and Contingencies**

*Litigation* 

The Company is involved in various legal matters that arise in the ordinary course of its business. Some of these legal matters purport or may be determined to be class and/or representative actions under the California Labor Code and Private Attorneys General Act, or seek substantial damages, or penalties. The Company has accrued amounts in connection with certain legal matters, including with respect to certain of the matters described below. There can be no assurance, however, that these accruals will be sufficient to cover such matters or other legal matters or that such matters or other legal matters will not materially or adversely affect the Company's financial position, liquidity, or results of operations.

In April 2018, the Company acquired the business of Take 5 Media Group ("Take 5"). As a result of an investigation into that business in 2019 that identified certain misconduct, the Company terminated all operations of Take 5 in July 2019 and offered refunds to clients of collected revenues attributable to the period after the Company's acquisition. The Company refers to the foregoing as the "Take 5 Matter." The Company voluntarily disclosed to the United States Attorney's Office and the Federal Bureau of Investigation certain misconduct occurring at Take 5. The Company intends to cooperate in this and any other governmental investigations that may arise in connection with the Take 5 Matter. In October 2022, an arbitrator made a final award in favor of the Company. The Company is actively pursuing the collection of this award. The Company is currently unable to estimate if or when it will be able to collect any amounts associated with this arbitration. The Take 5 Matter may result in additional litigation against the Company, including lawsuits from clients, or governmental investigations, which may expose the Company to potential liability in excess of the amounts being offered by the Company as refunds to Take 5 clients. The Company is currently unable to determine the amount of any potential liability, costs or expenses (above the amounts previously offered as refunds) that may result from any lawsuits or investigations associated with the Take 5 Matter or determine whether any such issues will have any future material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, liquidity, or results of operations. Although the Company has insurance covering certain liabilities, the Company cannot be certain that the insurance will be sufficient to cover any potential liability or expenses associated with the Take 5 Matter.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company is required to provide financial commitments in the form of surety bonds to third parties as a guarantee of its performance on and its compliance with certain obligations. If the Company were to fail to perform or comply with these obligations, any draws upon surety bonds issued on its behalf would then trigger the Company's payment obligation to the surety bond issuer. The Company has outstanding surety bonds issued for its benefits of $15.0 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

**10. Stock-Based Compensation**

The Company has issued nonqualified stock options, restricted stock units ("RSUs"), and performance restricted stock units ("PSUs") under the Advantage Solutions Inc. 2020 Incentive Award Plan, as amended and restated (the "Plan"). The Company's restricted stock units and performance restricted stock units, as described below, are expensed based on the fair value at the grant date. The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense as follows:

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total stock-based compensation expense included in net loss | $5450 | $6193 | $10925 | $13473 |

---

*Performance Restricted Stock Units*

PSUs granted in fiscal year 2025 and 2024 are subject to achievement of certain performance conditions based on measurements of the Company's Adjusted EBITDA margin and cash earnings. The Company's average Adjusted EBITDA margin and cash earnings relative to specified targets will be measured over the fiscal years in which the award was granted and the two subsequent fiscal years thereafter, and an average annual achievement percentage will be determined. In addition, the earned PSUs are subject to further adjustment depending on the Company's performance

------

against a specified peer group for total stockholder return during the three-year performance period. This adjustment can either put a floor or a cap on the calculation of the final PSUs value. Subject to certain termination events, these PSUs are scheduled to cliff-vest on the third-year anniversary of the date of grant and may vest from 0% to 200% (as defined in the award agreement) of the Target number of PSUs specified in the table below.

PSUs are subject to the recipient's continued service to the Company. PSUs granted in fiscal years 2023 and 2022 are subject to achievement of certain performance conditions based on the Company's revenues and Adjusted EBITDA targets in the respective measurement period and the recipient's continued service to the Company. The measurement period is based on the twelve months of the respective fiscal year. The PSUs are scheduled to vest over a three-year period from the date of grant and may vest from 0% to 150% of the number of shares set forth in the table below. The number of PSUs earned shall be adjusted to be proportional to the partial performance between the Threshold, Target and Maximum as defined in the award agreements. Details for each aforementioned defined term for each grant have been provided in the table below.

The fair value of PSU grants was equal to the closing price of the Company's stock on the date of the applicable grant. The maximum potential expense if the Maximum were met for these awards has been provided in the table below. Recognition of expense associated with performance-based stock is not permitted until achievement of the performance targets are probable of occurring.

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2025, the Human Capital Committee determined the annual achievement percentage for PSUs granted in fiscal year 2024 to be 128.3%. The value of these PSU awards remain subject to additional performance requirements (i.e., the annual achievement percentages for fiscal years 2025 and 2026 and the Company's performance against a specified peer group for total stockholder return during the three-year performance period) and service-based vesting conditions.

The following table summarizes the PSU activity for the six months ended June 30, 2025:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Performance Share Units** | **Weighted Average Grant<br>Date Fair Value** |
| Outstanding at January 1, 2025 | 6770840 | $2.56 |
| Granted | 4005531 | $1.30 |

| PSU performance adjustment <sup>(1)</sup> | 288421 | $4.33 |
| Outstanding at June 30, 2025 <sup>(2)</sup> | 8589700 | $2.05 |

---

(1) The number of PSUs outstanding was adjusted during the first quarter of fiscal year 2025, to reflect the 128.3% achievement level approved by the Human Capital Committee for fiscal year 2024.

(2) PSU award activity is presented at target until the period in which the Human Capital Committee approves the achievement percentages, at which point the awards are adjusted accordingly, subject to additional performance requirements and service-based vesting conditions.

*Restricted Stock Units*

RSUs are subject to the recipient's continued service to the Company. RSUs are generally scheduled to vest over three years and are subject to the provisions of the agreement under the Plan.

------

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the following activities involving RSUs occurred under the Plan:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Number of RSUs** | **Weighted Average Grant<br>Date Fair Value** |
| Outstanding at January 1, 2025 | 11817446 | $3.28 |
| Granted | 20678670 | $1.30 |
| Distributed | (5200065) | $3.36 |
| Forfeited | (2479281) | $2.09 |
| Outstanding at June 30, 2025 | 24816770 | $1.72 |

---

As of June 30, 2025, the total remaining unrecognized compensation cost related to RSUs amounted to $28.2 million, which is expected to be amortized over the weighted-average remaining requisite service periods of 2.4 years.

*Stock Options* 

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the following activities involving stock options occurred under the Plan:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Stock Options** | **Weighted Average Exercise Price** | **Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life** | **Aggregate Intrinsic Value**<br> (in thousands) |
| Outstanding at January 1, 2025 | 20433018 | $5.75 |  |  |
| Granted | 7216054 | $1.31 |  |  |
| Forfeited | (1811428) | $6.59 |  |  |
| Cancelled/Expired |  |  |  |  |
| Outstanding at June 30, 2025 | 25837644 | $4.45 | 6.9 years | $132 |
| Exercisable at June 30, 2025 | 7893003 | $3.27 | 6.3 years | $— |

---

As of June 30, 2025, the Company had approximately $7.8 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to stock options, net of forfeitures, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.4 years. There were no options exercised during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.

**11. Earnings Per Share**

The Company calculates earnings per share using a dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to stockholders of the Company by the weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding without the consideration for potential dilutive shares of common stock. Diluted earnings per share represents basic earnings per share adjusted to include the potentially dilutive effect of performance stock units, restricted stock units, public and private placement warrants, the employee stock purchase plan and stock options. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding and the potential dilutive shares of common stock for the period determined using the treasury stock method. During periods of net loss, diluted loss per share is equal to basic loss per share because the antidilutive effect of potential common shares is disregarded.

The following is a reconciliation of basic and diluted net earnings per common share:

---

The Company had 18,578,321 warrants to purchase Class A common stock at $11.50 per share outstanding at June 30, 2025 and 2024, which have been excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per common share, as the weighted average market price of the common stock during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 did not exceed the exercise price of the warrants.

In accordance with the treasury stock method the weighted average shares outstanding assuming dilution include the incremental effect of stock-based awards, except when such effect would be antidilutive. Stock-based awards of 7.2 million and 8.4 million weighted-average shares were outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted (loss) earnings per common share because the net loss position of the Company made them antidilutive. Stock-based awards of 15.6 million and 17.9 million weighted-average shares were outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, but were not included in the computation of diluted loss per common share because the net loss position of the Company made them antidilutive.

**Business Overview**

We are a leading business solutions provider to consumer goods manufacturers and retailers. We have a strong platform of essential, business critical services like headquarter sales, retail merchandising, in-store sampling, digital commerce, and shopper marketing. We generate demand for brands and retailers of all sizes, helping get the right products on the shelf — whether physical or digital — and into the hands of consumers in every way they shop. We use a scaled platform to innovate as a trusted partner with our clients, solving problems to increase their efficiency and effectiveness across a broad range of channels.

Our quarterly results are seasonal in nature, with the fourth fiscal quarter typically generating a higher proportion of our revenues than other fiscal quarters, as a result of higher consumer spending. We generally record slightly lower revenues in the first fiscal quarter of each year, as our clients begin to roll out new programs for the year, and consumer spending generally is less in the first fiscal quarter than other quarters. The timing of our clients' marketing expenses, associated with marketing campaigns and new product launches, can also result in fluctuations from one quarter to another.

We report financial results for the following three reportable segments:

Through our **Branded Services segment**, which generated approximately 34.5% and 37.5% of our revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, we provide services to branded consumer goods manufacturers through three main categories: brokerage, branded merchandising and omni-commerce marketing services. Brokerage services is primarily an outsourced sales and services agency for branded consumer goods manufacturers at retailer headquarters, in-store and online. Additionally, we lead with insights to execute branded merchandising strategies for branded consumer goods manufacturers related to merchandising in-store and online to drive product sales. Our omni-commerce marketing services primarily relate to digital and field marketing services, including shopper marketing, targeted advertising, interactive design and development, inventory management, application development and content management solutions.

Through our **Experiential Services segment**, which generated approximately 39.0% and 36.1% of our revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, we help brands and retailers reach consumers and convert

------

shoppers into buyers through in-store and online sampling and demonstrations. We manage highly customized, large-scale sampling programs for leading brands and retailers. We also manage, organize and execute special events for brands and retailers, including large-scale meetings, mobile tours, summits and festivals.

Through our **Retailer Services segment**, which generated approximately 26.5% and 26.3% of our revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, we provide end-to-end advisory, retailer merchandising and agency services to retailers. Advisory services primarily consist of consulting services related to private brand development, including coordination related to the sourcing, manufacturing, branding and distribution of private label products to the end retailer. Retailer merchandising services primarily relate to the execution of merchandising strategies, including traditional services such as interior store construction, store resets, category updates and new item implementation. Agency services primarily consist of providing marketing strategies within retail locations, including retail media networks, and analyzing shopper behavior to offer planning, execution and measurement of insight-based, retailer-specific promotions that target retailers' specific shopper base to drive product sales.

(1)Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations are financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with GAAP. For a discussion of our presentation of Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations and reconciliations of Net income to Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations, see "*—Non-GAAP Financial Measures*."

Revenues increased by $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, and decreased by $39.3 million, or 2.3%, for the six months ended June 30, 2025, both as compared to the same period in 2024. Reimbursable expenses increased in the three months and six months ended June 30, 2025 by $14.6 million and $12.4 million, respectively, compared to the same period in 2024. After consideration of reimbursable expenses, the decline in revenue was driven predominantly by our clients prioritizing cost optimization, including a reduction in order volume, during a period of uncertain macro-economic environment. Also impacting year-over-year comparisons are the loss of certain clients in the second half of 2024.

Adjusted Net Income decreased by $7.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and $32.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, both as compared to the same period in 2024, due to the incurrence of tax expense in fiscal 2025 versus a tax benefit in fiscal 2024, lower Adjusted EBITDA, as discussed below, partially offset by lower interest expense and higher equity earnings from unconsolidated investments.

Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations decreased by $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, and $15.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, both as compared to the same period in 2024, predominantly due to lower order volume and a reduction of client sales and marketing investments driven by an uncertain macro-economic environment, the impact of staffing challenges, which were significantly remediated in the second quarter, partially offset by lower fixed compensation costs and discretionary bonus.

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

In the accompanying analysis of financial results, we include certain financial measures that are not presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). These non-GAAP financial measures are derived from our consolidated and segment financial information but exclude or adjust for certain items that are included in the most directly comparable GAAP measures. We believe these non-GAAP ("Non-GAAP") financial measures provide investors with additional insight into our operating performance, underlying business trends, and period-over-period comparability. However, these measures are not in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP measures. A reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is provided below:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Adjusted Net Income

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Adjusted EBITDA by Segment

We define Adjusted Net Income, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as net (loss) income before (i) net income attributable to noncontrolling interest, (ii) impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived assets, (iii) gain on deconsolidation of subsidiaries, (iv) equity-based compensation of Karman Topco L.P., (v) changes in fair value of warrant liability, (vi) fair value adjustments of contingent consideration related to acquisitions, (vii) acquisition and divestiture related expenses, (viii) restructuring expenses, (ix) reorganization expenses, (x) litigation expenses, (xi) amortization of intangible assets, (xii) gain on repurchases of Term Loan Facility and Notes (as such terms are defined below) debt, (xiii) COVID-19 benefits received, (xiv) costs associated with (recovery from) the Take 5 Matter, (xv) other adjustments that management believes are helpful in evaluating our operating performance, and (xvi) related tax adjustments. We present Adjusted Net Income because we use it as a supplemental measure to evaluate the performance of our business in a way that also considers our ability to generate profit without the impact of items that we do not believe are indicative of our operating performance or are unusual or infrequent in nature and aid in the comparability of our performance from period to period. Adjusted Net Income should not be considered as an alternative for Net (loss) income, our most directly comparable measure presented on a GAAP basis.

Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations and Adjusted EBITDA by Segment are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures of our operating performance.

Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations means net (loss) income before (i) interest expense (net), (ii) provision for (benefit from) income taxes, (iii) depreciation, (iv) amortization of intangible assets, (v) impairment of goodwill, (vi) changes in fair value of warrant liability, (vii) stock-based compensation expense, (viii) equity-based compensation of Karman Topco L.P., (ix) fair value adjustments of contingent consideration related to acquisitions, (x) acquisition and divestiture related expenses, (xi) (gain) loss on divestitures, (xii) restructuring expenses, (xiii) reorganization expenses, (xiv) litigation expenses (recovery), (xv) COVID-19 benefits received, (xvi) costs associated with (recovery from) the Take 5 Matter, (xvii) EBITDA for economic interests in investments and (xviii) other adjustments that management believes are helpful in evaluating our operating performance.

Adjusted EBITDA by Segment means, with respect to each segment, operating income (loss) from continuing operations before (i) depreciation, (ii) amortization of intangible assets, (iii) impairment of goodwill, (iv) stock based compensation expense, (v) equity-based compensation of Karman Topco L.P., (vi) fair value adjustments of contingent consideration related to acquisitions, (vii) acquisition and divestiture related expenses, (viii) restructuring expenses, (ix) reorganization expenses, (x) litigation expenses (recovery), (xi) COVID-19 benefits received, (xii) costs associated with (recovery from) the Take 5 Matter, (xiii) EBITDA for economic interests in investments and (xiv) other adjustments that management believes are helpful in evaluating our operating performance, in each case, attributable to such segment.

We present Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations and Adjusted EBITDA by Segment because they are key operating measures used by us to assess our financial performance. These measures adjust for items that we believe do not reflect the ongoing operating performance of our business, such as certain non-cash items, unusual or infrequent items or items that change from period to period without any material relevance to our operating performance. We evaluate these measures in conjunction with our results according to GAAP because we believe they provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business than GAAP measures alone. Furthermore, the agreements governing our indebtedness contain covenants and other tests based on measures substantially similar to

------

Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations. Neither Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations nor Adjusted EBITDA by Segment should be considered as an alternative for Net (loss) income or operating income (loss), our most directly comparable measures presented on a GAAP basis.

Non-GAAP financial measures are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expense and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. Additionally, other companies may calculate non-GAAP measures differently, or may use other measures to calculate their financial performance, and therefore our non-GAAP measures may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Branded Services segment revenues decreased $27.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024, The decrease in revenues was primarily due to market headwinds negatively impacting brokerage and omni-commerce marketing services as our clients continue to manage their costs, as well as due to certain client losses experienced in the second half of fiscal year 2024, as previously communicated.

Experiential Services segment revenues increased $28.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024, of which $14.3 million of the increase is due to higher reimbursable expenses. After consideration of reimbursable expenses, the remaining increase in revenues was primarily due to higher events per day volume, primarily driven by improved staffing and higher pricing.

Retailer Services segment revenues decreased slightly, or $0.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. Higher merchandising activity driven by improved staffing and better pricing were more than offset by lower advisory and agency services.

**Cost of Revenues**

Cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was 85.5%, as compared to 86.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The net decrease as a percentage of revenues was largely attributable to lower fixed labor costs, driven by restructuring events, lower discretionary bonus, partially offset by higher IT costs from transformation initiatives, and higher reimbursable expenses.

**Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses**

Selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was 7.9%, compared to 7.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase as a percentage of revenues was primarily driven by higher shared service costs, an increase in bad debt expense, partially offset by lower compensation and lower restructuring costs.

**Depreciation and Amortization Expense**

Depreciation and amortization expense was $50.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $51.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The net decrease was primarily due to a $1.3 million decrease in amortization expense as a result of intangible asset impairment charges incurred during fiscal year 2024, partially offset by a $0.6 million increase in depreciation expense, due to an increase in software amortization as a result of our increased investment in software assets.

---

In the Branded Services segment, the decrease in operating loss during the three months ended June 30, 2025 was due to a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $99.7 million related to the Company's Branded Agencies reporting unit goodwill during the three months ended June 30, 2024.

In the Experiential Services segment, the increase in operating income during the three months ended June 30, 2025 was due to the increase in revenues as discussed above.

In the Retailer Services segment, operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was materially consistent with operating income during the three months ended June 30, 2024.

**Change in Fair Value of Warrant Liability**

Change in fair value of warrant liability was an immaterial non-cash expense for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $0.7 million of non-cash expense resulting from a fair value adjustment to warrant liability with respect to the private placement warrants for the three months ended June 30, 2024.

**Interest Expense, net**

Interest expense, net decreased by $3.9 million, or 9.9%, to $35.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, from $39.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to lower debt balance as a result of repurchases of debt associated with the Term Loan Facility and Notes as further described in "*Liquidity and Capital Resources—Repurchases of Shares and Debt—Repurchases of Term Loan Facility and Notes,*" partially offset by a $1.6 million increase in fair value adjustments for our derivative financial instruments.

**Provision for (Benefit from) Income Taxes**

Provision for income taxes was $4.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $17.3 million of benefit from income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The fluctuation in the income tax provision was primarily attributable to a change in our effective tax rate and a decrease in the pretax loss compared to the prior period. Although we generated a pretax loss on continuing operations in the three months ended June 30, 2025, our effective tax rate results in a tax expense due to the requirement to record a valuation allowance on tax benefits associated with the deduction for interest expense. Also negatively impacting income taxes, we recorded a deferred tax liability on earnings in Canada that we repatriated in the second quarter of fiscal 2025.

**Net Loss from Continuing Operations**

Net loss from continuing operations was $30.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to net loss from continuing operations of $113.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in net loss from continuing operations was primarily driven by a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $99.7 million related to the Company's Branded Agencies reporting unit goodwill during the three months ended June 30, 2024, lower interest expense, and lower reorganization expenses, partially offset by higher income tax expense.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

Our principal sources of liquidity are cash receipts for services performed, and borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below). Our principal uses of cash are operating expenses, working capital requirements, interest on debt and repayment of debt. Principal uses of cash used in investing activities includes our enterprise resource planning initiative, which includes upgrading our information system platform.

Our working capital as of June 30, 2025, included $102.9 million of cash and cash equivalents and $673.3 million of accounts receivable, net of allowance for expected credit losses, both of which will be a significant source of ongoing liquidity. Additionally, as of June 30, 2025, we had the ability to borrow up to $400.0 million under our Revolving Credit Facility after consideration of the borrowing base limitations and outstanding letters of credit. We expect that internally generated cash and unused availability on our Revolving Credit Facility will be sufficient to support the working capital needs of the Company, the Company's fixed payments and other obligations on both a short-term and long-term basis.

**Cash Flows**

A summary of our cash operating, investing and financing activities from continuing operations are shown in the following table:

***Net Cash Used in Operating Activities***

Cash flows from operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2025 decreased $91.8 million, as compared to the same period in 2024 due to increases in accounts receivable, driven primarily by the implementation of our new global enterprise resource planning ("ERP") system, and an increase in prepaid expenses and other assets due to an increase in prepaid payroll expenses as of June 30, 2025.

***Net Cash (Used in) Provided by Investing Activities***

Net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations during the six months ended June 30, 2025 primarily consisted of purchases of property and equipment of $17.2 million, primarily driven by investments in software to support the enterprise resource planning initiative, and purchases of investments in unconsolidated affiliates of $3.5 million.

Net cash provided by investing activities from continuing operations during the six months ended June 30, 2024 primarily consisted of the proceeds from divestitures of $146.8 million, partially offset by the purchase of property and equipment of $25.1 million and the purchase of investments in unconsolidated affiliates of $10.9 million.

***Net Cash Used in Financing Activities***

Cash flows used in financing activities from continuing operations during the six months ended June 30, 2025 were primarily related to repurchases of Notes and Term Loan Facility debt of $18.2 million, repayment of principal on our Term Loan Facility of $6.6 million and payments for taxes related to net share settlement of $3.6 million.

Cash flows used in financing activities from continuing operations during the six months ended June 30, 2024 were primarily related to repurchases of Notes of $71.7 million, repayment of principal on our Term Loan Facility of $6.6 million, payments of contingent consideration of $7.6 million, payments for taxes related to net share settlement of $11.1 million and payments related to the share repurchase program of $20.8 million.

------

**Credit Facilities** 

Advantage Sales & Marketing Inc. (the "Borrower"), our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, has (i) a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $500.0 million, subject to borrowing base capacity (as may be amended from time to time, the "Revolving Credit Facility") and (ii) a secured first lien term loan credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $1.1 billion (as may be amended from time to time, the "Term Loan Facility" and together with the Revolving Credit Facility, the "Senior Secured Credit Facilities"). As of June 30, 2025, we had unused capacity under our Revolving Credit Facility of $400.0 million, after consideration of the borrowing base limitations and outstanding letters of credit of $53.7 million.

On October 28, 2020, we issued $775.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.50% Senior Secured Notes due 2028 (the "Notes") and may voluntarily prepay loans or reduce commitments under the Notes, in whole or in part, subject to minimum amounts, with prior notice but without premium or penalty. We voluntarily repurchased an aggregate of $20.0 million principal amount of the Notes during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and recognized a gain on the repurchase of $1.8 million, as a component of "Interest expense, net" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. We did not make any voluntary repurchases during the three months ended June 30, 2025.

From time to time, we may repurchase portions of our outstanding indebtedness under the Term Loan Facility and Notes. Such repurchases, if any, will depend upon prevailing market conditions, our liquidity and capital position, contractual limitations and other factors. The amounts and timing of any such repurchases will be at our discretion and we are under no obligation to repurchase any specific amount of indebtedness.

***Share Repurchases***

On November 9, 2021, we announced that our board of directors authorized a share repurchase program (the "2021 Share Repurchase Program") pursuant to which we may repurchase up to $100.0 million of our Class A common stock.

The 2021 Share Repurchase Program does not have an expiration date, but provides for suspension or discontinuation at any time. The 2021 Share Repurchase Program permits the repurchase of our Class A common stock on the open market and by other means from time to time. The timing and amount of any share repurchase is subject to prevailing market conditions, relevant securities laws and other considerations, and we are under no obligation to repurchase any specific number of shares.

**Future Cash Requirement**

There were no material changes to our contractual future cash requirements from those disclosed in our 2024 Annual Report.

**Cash and Cash Equivalents Held Outside the United States**

As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, $26.8 million and $65.0 million, respectively, of our cash and cash equivalents were held by foreign subsidiaries. As of June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, $29.4 million and $18.5 million, respectively, of our cash and cash equivalents were held by foreign branches.

We expect existing domestic cash and cash flows from operations to continue to be sufficient to fund our domestic operating activities and cash commitments for investing and financing activities, such as debt repayment and capital expenditures, for at least the next 12 months and thereafter for the foreseeable future. Nonetheless, we assessed our determination as to our indefinite reinvestment intent for certain of our foreign subsidiaries and branches and recorded a deferred tax liability of approximately $0.8 million of withholding tax as of June 30, 2025 for unremitted earnings in Canada repatriated to the U.S. in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025. We continue to assert indefinite reinvestment on earnings of our foreign operations, other than Canada although we may change our assertion if we identify a higher return on this capital in the U.S. and we are able to repatriate the income in a tax-efficient means.

------

**Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements**

We do not have any off-balance sheet financing arrangements or liabilities, guarantee contracts, retained or contingent interests in transferred assets or any obligation arising out of a material variable interest in an unconsolidated entity. We do not have any majority-owned subsidiaries that are not included in our consolidated financial statements. Additionally, we do not have an interest in, or relationships with, any special-purpose entities.

**Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates**

Our critical accounting policies and estimates are included in our 2024 Annual Report and did not materially change during the six months ended June 30, 2025.

**Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements**

*Accounting Standards Recently Issued but Not Yet Adopted by the Company* 

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-09, *Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures*, which requires entities to expand their existing income tax disclosures, specifically related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The standard is effective for our annual report for fiscal year 2025. The new standard is expected to be applied prospectively, but retrospective application is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, *Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses* ("ASU 2024-03"), and in January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, *Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date* ("ASU 2025-01"). ASU 2024-03 requires public entities to disclose additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to the financial statements on an interim and annual basis. ASU 2024-03, as clarified by ASU 2025-01, is effective for us beginning in fiscal year 2026 and interim periods within fiscal year 2027, with early adoption permitted. The new standard is expected to be applied prospectively, but retrospective application is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2024-03 on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Other new accounting pronouncements recently issued or newly effective were not applicable to us, did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements or are not expected to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

------

**ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK**

**Foreign Currency Risk**

Our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations is primarily the result of foreign subsidiaries and foreign branches primarily domiciled in Canada. We use financial derivative instruments to hedge foreign currency exchange rate risks associated with our Canadian operations.

The assets and liabilities of our foreign subsidiaries and foreign branches, whose functional currencies are primarily Canadian dollars, are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates prevailing during the period. The cumulative translation effects for subsidiaries using a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss as a separate component of stockholders' equity. We estimate that had the exchange rate in each country unfavorably changed by ten percent relative to the U.S. dollar, our consolidated loss before taxes would have decreased by approximately $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

**Interest Rate Risk**

Interest rate exposure relates primarily to the effect of interest rate changes on borrowings outstanding under the Term Loan Facility, Revolving Credit Facility and Notes.

We manage our interest rate risk through the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, we have entered into interest rate collar agreements to manage our exposure to potential interest rate increases that may result from fluctuations in SOFR. We do not designate these derivatives as hedges for accounting purposes, and as a result, all changes in the fair value of derivatives, used to hedge interest rates, are recorded in "Interest expense, net" in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

We had interest rate collar contracts with an aggregate notional value of principal of $700.0 million as of June 30, 2025, from various financial institutions to manage our exposure to interest rate movements on variable rate credit facilities. The interest rate collar contracts will mature on April 5, 2026, 2027 and 2028. In July 2024, we entered into two interest rate collar contracts with a notional value of principal of $200.0 million each. The interest rate collar contracts are effective December 16, 2024 and will mature on April 5, 2027 and 2028. The aggregate fair value of our interest rate caps and collars represented an outstanding net liability of $1.2 million as of June 30, 2025.

Holding other variables constant, a change of one-eighth percentage point in the weighted average interest rate above the floor of 0.75% on the Term Loan Facility and Revolving Credit Facility would have resulted in an increase of $0.7 million in interest expense, net of gains from interest rate caps and collars, for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

In the future, in order to manage our interest rate risk, we may refinance our existing debt, enter into additional interest rate cap agreements or modify our existing interest rate cap agreement. However, we do not intend or expect to enter into derivative or interest rate cap transactions for speculative purposes.

**ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES**

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of

------

disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

**Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting**

We are in the process of implementing a new global enterprise resource planning ("ERP") system, which is expected to occur in phases. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2025, we deployed the new ERP for operations outside of North America. As part of the implementation, we completed significant pre-implementation testing and post-implementation testing and monitoring. Furthermore, in conjunction with the ERP implementation, we modified certain existing internal controls over financial reporting and implemented new controls and procedures related to the new ERP system. While we believe that this new system will enhance our internal control over financial reporting, there are inherent risks in implementing any new system, and we will continue to evaluate these control changes as part of our control design and effectiveness throughout fiscal year 2025.

These were the changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

**PART II - OTHER INFORMATION**

**ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS**

We are involved in various legal matters that arise in the ordinary course of our business. Some of these legal matters purport or may be determined to be class and/or representative actions, or seek substantial damages or penalties. Some of these legal matters relate to disputes regarding acquisitions. In connection with certain of the below matters and other legal matters, we have accrued amounts that we believe are appropriate. There can be no assurance, however, that the below matters and other legal matters will not result in us having to make payments in excess of such accruals or that the below matters or other legal matters will not materially or adversely affect our business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

**Commercial Matters**

We have been involved in various litigation matters and arbitrations with respect to commercial matters arising with clients, vendors and third-party sellers of businesses.

**Employment-Related Matters**

We have also been involved in various litigation, including purported class or representative actions with respect to matters arising under the U.S. Fair Labor Standards Act, California Labor Code and Private Attorneys General Act. Many involve allegations for allegedly failing to pay wages and/or overtime, failing to provide meal and rest breaks and failing to pay reporting time pay, waiting time penalties and other penalties.

**Legal Matters Related to Take 5**

In April 2018, the Company acquired the business of Take 5 Media Group ("Take 5"). As a result of an investigation into that business in 2019 that identified certain misconduct, the Company terminated all operations of Take 5 in July 2019 and offered refunds to clients of collected revenues attributable to the period after the Company's acquisition. The Company refers to the foregoing as the Take 5 Matter. The Company voluntarily disclosed to the United States Attorney's Office and the Federal Bureau of Investigation certain misconduct occurring at Take 5. The Company intends to cooperate in this and any other governmental investigations that may arise in connection with the Take 5 Matter. In October 2022, an arbitrator made a final award in favor of the Company. The Company is actively pursuing the collection of this award. The Company is currently unable to estimate if or when it will be able to collect any amounts associated with this arbitration. The Take 5 Matter may result in additional litigation against the Company, including lawsuits from clients, or governmental investigations, which may expose the Company to potential liability in excess of the amounts being offered by the Company as refunds to Take 5 clients. The Company is currently unable to determine the amount of any potential liability, costs or expenses (above the amounts previously offered as refunds) that may result from any lawsuits or investigations associated with the Take 5 Matter or determine whether any such issues

------

will have any future material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, liquidity, or results of operations. Although the Company has insurance covering certain liabilities, the Company cannot be certain that the insurance will be sufficient to cover any potential liability or expenses associated with the Take 5 Matter.

**ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS** 

There have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed under Part I, Item 1A "Risk Factors" in the 2024 Annual Report, the current effects of which are discussed in more detail in Part I, Item 2 "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These risks are not the only risks that may affect us. Additional risks that we are not aware of or do not believe are material at the time of this filing may also become important factors that adversely affect our business.

**Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds**

On November 9, 2021, we announced that our board of directors authorized a share repurchase program (the "2021 Share Repurchase Program") pursuant to which we may repurchase up to $100.0 million of our Class A common stock.

The 2021 Share Repurchase Program does not have an expiration date but provides for suspension or discontinuation at any time. The 2021 Share Repurchase Program permits the repurchase of our Class A common stock on the open market and by other means, including plans complying with Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act. The timing and amount of any share repurchase is subject to prevailing market conditions, relevant securities laws and other considerations, and we are under no obligation to repurchase any specific number of shares.

During the three months ended June 30, 2025, we did not repurchase any of our Class A common stock under the 2021 Share Repurchase Program. As of June 30, 2025, there remained $46.2 million of share repurchase availability under the 2021 Share Repurchase Program.

**Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities**

None.

**Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures**

Not applicable.

**Item 5. Other Information**

**Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plans**

During the three months ended June 30, 2025, none of our directors and executive officers adopted or terminated a "Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement" or "non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement," as each term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K.
