Resolute Holdings Reports First Quarter 2026 Results

NEW YORK, May 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Resolute Holdings Management, Inc. ("Resolute Holdings") (NYSE:RHLD), an operating management company responsible for providing management services to the operating businesses of GPGI, Inc. ("GPGI") (NYSE:GPGI), today reported financial results for its fiscal first quarter ended March 31, 2026. Resolute Holdings reported first quarter earnings per share attributable to common stockholders of $7.19 compared to ($0.39) in the prior year and Non-GAAP Fee-Related Earnings per share of $0.69 compared to ($0.07) in the prior year. The increase in Non-GAAP profitability was driven by the higher fee stream as a result of the execution of the management agreement with Husky Holdings LLC ("Husky Holdings") in January 2026, along with organic growth in fees from the CompoSecure management agreement. During the quarter, the company repurchased $38.0 million in common shares in open market purchases.

As a result of the spin-off from GPGI and execution of the management agreement with GPGI Holdings, L.L.C. ("GPGI Holdings"), Resolute Holdings is required to consolidate the financial results of GPGI Holdings (and its subsidiaries, including Husky Holdings) in accordance with U.S. GAAP. This presentation of financial results does not represent the underlying economics or the positive attributes of Resolute Holdings' standalone business model, which consist of recurring, long-duration management fees and a relatively fixed expense base. The results of the Resolute Holdings standalone business and associated Non-GAAP Fee-Related Earnings calculation are included below to provide a clear picture of the economic performance of the business directly attributable to shareholders of RHLD. This release includes such results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, as well as certain Non-GAAP measures, including Fee-Related Earnings. See "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") and that may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Resolute Holdings believes Fee-Related Earnings and Fee-Related Earnings per share are useful to investors in evaluating Resolute Holdings' financial performance. Resolute Holdings believes that these non-GAAP financial measures depict the performance of the business and underlying economics attributable to Resolute Holdings common stockholders. Fee-Related Earnings and Fee-Related Earnings per share should not be considered as measures of financial performance under U.S. GAAP, and the items excluded from Fee-Related Earnings and Fee-Related Earnings per share are significant components in understanding and assessing Resolute Holdings' financial performance. Accordingly, these key business metrics have limitations as an analytical tool. They should not be considered as an alternative to net income, net income per share, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
