MYERS INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollars in thousands, except where otherwise indicated)
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Myers Industries, Inc. and all wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”), and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information not misleading. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of March 31, 2026, and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that will occur for the year ending December 31, 2026.
Segment Realignment and Discontinued Operations
During the first quarter of 2026, and in conjunction with the announced sale of Myers Tire Supply, the Company transitioned to a new internal organizational and reporting structure, consistent with the manner in which the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") evaluates performance and makes resource allocation decisions, supporting a single reportable segment. The Company's CODM is the Chief Executive Officer. The reportable segment does not include operating segments that have been aggregated. The reportable segment contains individual business components that have been combined on the basis of common management, customers, products, production processes and other economic characteristics. This change in structure has resulted in a more agile organization and solidified achievement of recent productivity improvements and cost efficiency initiatives. In conjunction with the change the Company has begun reporting on this new single-segment structure effective March 31, 2026.
Historical information also reflects discontinued operations presentation for the Myers Tire Supply business, which met the held for sale criteria as described in Note 3. Accordingly, the accompanying Financial Statements and Supplementary Data have been retrospectively revised to reflect the classification of the Myers Tire Supply business as assets and liabilities held-for-sale and their operating results, net of tax, as discontinued operations.
Change in Accounting Principle
As of January 1, 2026, the Company changed its method of accounting for the classification of shipping and handling costs. Under the new method of accounting, the Company includes shipping and handling costs in Cost of sales, whereas previously, these costs were included in operating costs and expenses within Selling, general and administrative for internal costs and Freight out for external costs.
The Company believes that including these expenses in Cost of sales is preferable, as it better aligns these costs with the related revenue in the gross profit calculation and is consistent with the practices of other industry peers. This change in accounting principle has been applied retrospectively, and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited) reflect the effect of this accounting principle change for all periods presented. This reclassification had no impact on operating income, net income or earnings per common share. The Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position (Unaudited), Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) (Unaudited), Condensed Consolidated Statements of Shareholders' Equity (Unaudited), and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows (Unaudited) were not impacted by this accounting principle change.
The Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited) were impacted as follows:

MYERS INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued)
(Dollars in thousands, except where otherwise indicated)
Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
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. This ASU is intended to improve the disclosures about an entity's expenses and requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories to provide more detailed information about the types of expenses commonly presented. For the Company, this ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments within this ASU should be applied prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this update or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.
Fair Value Measurement
The Company follows guidance included in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, for its financial assets and liabilities, as required. Under ASC 820, the hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value is divided into three levels:
Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data or which reflect the entity’s own assumptions.
The Company has financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates carrying value due to the nature and relative short maturity of these assets and liabilities.
The fair value of the Company’s revolving credit facility, as defined in Note 11, approximates carrying value due to the floating rates and the relative short maturity (less than 90 days) of any revolving borrowings under this agreement. The carrying value of the unhedged portion of the Company’s term loan, as defined in Note 11, approximates fair value given that the underlying interest rate applied to such amounts outstanding is currently based upon floating market rates and the Company has the ability to repay the outstanding principal at par value at any time under the terms of this agreement.
The Company has also entered into an interest rate swap contract to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in variable interest rates for future interest payments, as defined in Note 11. The Company uses significant other observable market data or assumptions (Level 2 inputs) in determining the fair value of its interest rate swap that market participants would use in pricing similar assets or liabilities, including assumptions about counterparty risk. The fair value estimates reflect an income approach based on the terms of the interest rate swap contract and inputs corroborated by observable market data including interest rate curves.

Allowance for Credit Losses
Management has established certain requirements that customers must meet before credit is extended. The financial condition of customers is continually monitored and collateral is usually not required. The Company evaluates the collectability of accounts receivable based on a combination of factors. The Company reviews historical trends for credit loss as well as current economic conditions in determining an estimate for its allowance for credit losses. Additionally, in circumstances where the Company is aware of a specific customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations, a specific allowance for credit losses is recorded against amounts due to reduce the net recognized receivable to the amount the Company reasonably expects will be collected.
The changes in the allowance for credit losses included within Trade accounts receivable for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were as follows:

Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with customers are satisfied which generally occurs with the transfer of control of the Company's products. This transfer of control may occur at either the time of shipment from a Company facility, or at the time of delivery to a designated customer location. Obligations under contracts with customers are typically fulfilled within 90 days of receiving a purchase order from a customer, and generally no other future obligations are required to be performed. The Company generally does not enter into any long-term contracts with customers greater than one year. Based on the nature of the Company’s products and customer contracts, no deferred revenue has been recorded, with the exception of cash advances or deposits received from customers prior to transfer of control of the product. These advances are typically fulfilled within the 90-day time frame mentioned above.
Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring the products. Certain contracts with customers include variable consideration, such as rebates or discounts. The Company recognizes estimates of this variable consideration each period, primarily based on the most likely level of consideration to be paid to the customer under the specific terms of the underlying programs. While the Company’s contracts with customers do not generally include explicit rights to return product, the Company will in practice allow returns in the normal course of business and as part of the customer relationship. Expected returns allowances are recognized each period based on an analysis of historical experience, and when physical recovery of the product from returns occurs, an estimated right to return asset is also recorded based on the approximate cost of the product.
Amounts included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position (Unaudited) related to revenue recognition include:

3. Discontinued Operations
In mid-2025, the Company announced it was performing a strategic review of its Myers Tire Supply business. During the first quarter of 2026, the Myers Tire Supply business qualified as discontinued operations based on formal approvals by the Company's Board of Directors related to the divestiture process that resulted from the strategic review. The divestiture of Myers Tire Supply enables the Company to continue its progress on improving profitability of its overall portfolio, while also streamlining and focusing its resources on core manufacturing businesses that align with the Company's overall mission of Products that Protect™. The divestiture of the Myers Tire Supply business is expected to be completed in 2026 and represents a strategic shift to exit the distribution industry and automotive aftermarket, which will have a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results. The Myers Tire Supply business includes its domestic and Central American businesses, each of which serve their respective markets with the distribution of equipment, tools and supplies used for the tire servicing and automotive industry.
As of March 31, 2026, the entire Myers Tire Supply business, formerly part of the Company's Distribution segment, has been accounted for as held for sale and as discontinued operations. Accordingly, the Company has classified these assets and liabilities as held for sale in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position (Unaudited) and the Myers Tire Supply operating results, net of tax, as discontinued operations in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited) for all periods presented.
In the first quarter of 2026, in conjunction with bids received during this divestiture process (Level 3 inputs), impairment charges of $

7. Goodwill and Intangible Assets
In the first quarter of 2026, in conjunction with the announced sale of Myers Tire Supply, the Company realigned its organizational structure into a single-segment, as more fully described in Note 1. As a result of this change the Company reallocated goodwill within its Distribution reporting unit using a relative fair value approach for which it determined the remaining goodwill of the Distribution reporting unit pertained to businesses classified as held for sale, as more fully described in Note 3, and no additional goodwill was reallocated to the remaining reporting units within continuing operations.

The dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock was computed using the treasury stock method. The Company also applied the control number concept in the computation of diluted earnings per share to determine whether potential common stock equivalents are dilutive. The control number used is income from continuing operations. The control number concept requires that the same number of potentially dilutive securities applied in computing diluted earnings per share from continuing operations be applied to all other categories of income or loss, regardless of their anti-dilutive effect on such categories.

amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount, the minimum amount in the range is recorded. As additional information becomes available, any potential liability related to these matters is assessed and the estimates are revised, if necessary.
Based on current available information, management believes that the ultimate outcome of these matters, including those described below, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, cash flows or overall trends in our results of operations. However, these matters are subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable rulings could occur. If an unfavorable ruling were to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse impact on the financial position and results of operations of the period in which the ruling occurs, or in future periods.
New Idria Mercury Mine
In September 2015, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) informed a subsidiary of the Company, Buckhorn, Inc. (“Buckhorn”) via a notice letter and related documents (the “Notice Letter”) that it considers Buckhorn to be a potentially responsible party (“PRP”) in connection with the New Idria Mercury Mine site (“New Idria Mine”). New Idria Mining & Chemical Company (“NIMCC”), which owned and/or operated the New Idria Mine through 1976, was merged into Buckhorn Metal Products Inc. in 1981, which was subsequently acquired by Myers Industries, Inc. in 1987. As a result of the EPA Notice Letter, Buckhorn and the Company entered into an Administrative Order of Consent (“AOC”) with the EPA for the Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study (“RI/FS”) to determine the extent of remediation necessary and the screening of alternatives. The AOC and related Statement of Work (“SOW”) were effective as of November 27, 2018, the date that it was executed by the EPA. The AOC requires a $
All reasonably estimable costs related to the environmental remediation are accrued. These costs are comprised primarily of estimates to perform the RI/FS, identification of possible other PRPs, EPA oversight fees, past cost claims made by the EPA, periodic monitoring, and responses to demands issued by the EPA under the AOC. It is possible that adjustments to the aforementioned reserves will be necessary as new information is obtained, including after finalization and EPA approval of the work plan for the RI/FS. Estimates of Buckhorn’s liability are based on current facts, laws, regulations and technology. Estimates of Buckhorn’s environmental liabilities are further subject to uncertainties regarding the nature and extent of site contamination, the range of remediation alternatives available, evolving remediation standards, imprecise engineering evaluation and cost estimates, the extent of remedial actions that may be required, the extent of oversight by the EPA and the number and financial condition of other PRPs that may be named, as well as the extent of their responsibility for the remediation. Beginning in late 2021 and continuing through the current period, Buckhorn and the EPA continue to actively discuss the scope of the activities in the work plan for the RI/FS, resulting in changes to the estimated costs to perform the RI/FS work plan from time to time. Cost estimates will continue to be refined as the work plans for the RI/FS and the ultimate remediation are finalized and as the activities are performed over a period expected to last several years.
In 2022, Buckhorn reached an agreement with respect to certain insurance coverage related to defense costs, which is expected to apply to a substantial portion of the estimated RI/FS costs. Recovery of accrued costs are recorded as a receivable to the extent such recovery is determined to be probable under this agreement. Estimates of cost recoveries will continue to be refined as the RI/FS work plan is finalized and the activities are performed over a period expected to last several years. Buckhorn may also have opportunity for cost recovery under other insurance policies.

New Almaden Mine
A number of parties, including the Company and its subsidiary, Buckhorn (as successor to NIMCC), were alleged by trustee agencies of the United States and the State of California to be responsible for natural resource damages due to environmental contamination of areas comprising the historical New Almaden mercury mines located in the Guadalupe River Watershed region in Santa Clara County, California (“County”). In 2005, Buckhorn and the Company, without admitting liability or chain of ownership of NIMCC, resolved the trustees’ claim against them through a consent decree that required them to contribute financially to the implementation by the County of an environmentally beneficial project within the impacted area. Buckhorn and the Company negotiated an agreement with the County ("Cost Sharing Agreement"), whereby Buckhorn and the Company agreed to reimburse one-half of the County’s costs of implementing the project. A detailed estimate was received from the County in 2016, and estimated costs for implementing the project to range between $
It is possible that adjustments to the aforementioned reserves will be necessary to reflect new information. In addition, the Company may have claims against and defenses to claims by the County under the 2005 agreement that could reduce or offset its obligation for reimbursement of some of these potential additional costs. With the assistance of environmental consultants, the Company will closely monitor this matter and will continue to assess its reserves as additional information becomes available.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the information incorporated by reference contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including information regarding the Company’s financial outlook, future plans, objectives, business prospects and anticipated financial performance. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “will,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” or variations of these words, or similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on the Company’s current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, these statements inherently involve a wide range of uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control. The Company’s actual actions, results, and financial condition may differ materially from what is expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.
Specific factors that could cause such a difference on our business, financial position, results of operations and/or liquidity include, without limitation, significant increases in the cost of raw materials or disruption in the availability of raw materials; operating in a very competitive business environment; changes in U.S. trade policy, including the imposition of tariffs and the resulting consequences; physical and other risks that could disrupt production; risks associated with our ability to develop and market new products; risks associated with protecting our intellectual property rights, including our unpatented proprietary know-how and trade secrets, or in avoiding claims that we infringed on the intellectual property rights of others; price volatility with our common stock; risks associated with our strategic growth initiatives or the failure to achieve the anticipated benefits of such initiatives; unanticipated downturn in business or inflationary conditions in the U.S. economy or global markets; risks associated with doing business in foreign countries; inability of the Company to maintain access to credit financing; risks associated with equity ownership concentration; claims, litigation and regulatory actions against the Company; changes in laws (including privacy laws), regulations and standards affecting the Company; current and future environmental and other governmental laws and requirements affecting the Company; unforeseen events, including natural disasters, unusual or severe weather events and patterns, public health crises, geopolitical crises, and other catastrophic events; instability in geographies impacted by political events, trade disputes, war, terrorism and other business interruptions; our ability to successfully execute our announced intended divestiture of the Myers Tire Supply business; and other risks and uncertainties detailed from time to time in the Company’s filings with the SEC, including without limitation, the risk factors disclosed in Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Given these factors, as well as other variables that may affect our operating results, readers should not rely on forward-looking statements, assume that past financial performance will be a reliable indicator of future performance, nor use historical trends to anticipate results or trends in future periods. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date thereof. The Company expressly disclaims any obligation or intention to provide updates to the forward-looking statements and the estimates and assumptions associated with them.
Executive Overview
During the first quarter of 2026, in conjunction with the announced sale of Myers Tire Supply, as described in Note 3, the Company transitioned to a new internal organizational and reporting structure. This change in structure has resulted in a more agile organization and solidified achievement of recent productivity improvements and cost efficiency initiatives. In conjunction with the change the Company has begun reporting on a new single-segment structure effective March 31, 2026, as described in Note 1.
The Company designs, manufactures, and markets a variety of plastic, metal and rubber products, including a broad selection of durable plastic reusable products that are manufactured for repeated use during the course of their service life. At the end of their service life, these highly sustainable products can be recovered, recycled, and reprocessed into new products. The Company's products include a broad selection of plastic reusable containers, pallets, small parts bins, bulk shipping containers, storage and organization products, OEM parts, custom plastic products, composite ground protection matting, tire repair and retreading products, consumer fuel containers and tanks for water, fuel and waste handling. Products are primarily injection molded, rotationally molded, compression molded or blow molded. Injection, compression and blow molding primarily use electric power to heat and press resin into molds to form the products. Rotational molding involves multi-axis rotation of molds in natural gas fired ovens to form the resin into our products. The Company also manufactures and sells certain traffic markings, including reflective highway marking tape. The Company conducts its primary operations in the United States, Canada and Europe and serves a wide variety of markets, including industrial manufacturing, food processing, retail/wholesale products distribution, agriculture, recreational vehicles, marine vehicles, healthcare, appliance, bakery, electronics, textiles, construction, infrastructure and consumer, among others. Products are sold both directly to end-users and through distributors.
18
The Company’s results of operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 are discussed below. The current economic environment includes heightened risks from tariffs, inflation, interest rates, banking liquidity, volatile commodity costs, supply chain disruptions and labor availability stemming from the broader economic effects of the international geopolitical climate, including rapidly changing regulations which has increased volatility in global commodity markets, including oil (a component of many plastic resins), energy and agricultural commodities. Some of our businesses have been and may continue to be affected by these broader economic effects, including customer demand for our products, supply chain disruptions, labor availability, tariffs and inflation. The Company believes it is well-positioned to manage through this uncertainty as it has a strong balance sheet with sufficient liquidity and borrowing capacity as well as a diverse product offering and customer base.
As described in Note 3, the Myers Tire Supply business is classified as discontinued operations and all historical information has been adjusted to reflect the discontinued operations presentation.
Results of Operations:
Comparison of the Quarter Ended March 31, 2026 to the Quarter Ended March 31, 2025
The following discussion is of our consolidated results of operations. As described in Note 1, effective January 1, 2026, the Company changed its method of accounting for the classification of shipping and handling costs. Under the new method of accounting, the Company includes shipping and handling costs in Cost of sales, whereas previously, these costs were included in operating costs and expenses within Selling, general and administrative for internal costs and Freight out for external costs. This change has been applied retrospectively to all periods presented in the table below.

Net sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 were $164.6 million, an increase of $2.9 million or 1.8% compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2025. Net sales increased due to higher volume of $3.9 million and the effect of favorable currency translation of $0.5 million, partially offset by lower pricing of $1.5 million.
Gross profit increased $6.3 million, or 12.6%, for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2025, due to higher volume, favorable mix, lower material costs and favorable cost productivity, partially offset by lower pricing as described under Net Sales above. Gross margin was 34.4% for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 compared with 31.1% for the quarter ended March 31, 2025.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 were $28.0 million, a decrease of $1.3 million or 4.4% compared to the same period in the prior year. Decreases in SG&A expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 were primarily due to $0.9 million of lower salaries and benefits, $0.6 million of lower legal and professional fees, $0.1 million of lower incentive compensation and $1.1 million of lower restructuring costs as described in Note 4, partially offset by $1.0 million of higher variable selling expenses. Environmental matters, as described in Note 10 resulted in a net $0.4 million of charges for the quarter ended March 31, 2026.
Depreciation and amortization, exclusive of amounts within Cost of sales, decreased $0.1 million to $3.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 as compared to $3.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily related to asset disposals in the prior year.
(Gain) loss on disposal of fixed assets was not significant during both the quarter ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025.

The Company’s effective tax rate was 24.0% and 26.8% for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate is driven by higher fixed non-deductible expenses in the prior year.
Discontinued Operations:
Loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes was $15.6 million and $0.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The higher loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes, in the current year was mainly due to impairment charges of $19.5 million ($14.8 million, net of tax) recognized on the classification of assets held for sale, as more fully described in Note 3 and $1.7 million of costs related to the sales process.
Liquidity and Capital Resources:
The Company’s primary sources of liquidity are cash on hand, cash generated from operations and availability under the Amended Loan Agreement (defined below). At March 31, 2026, the Company had $44.6 million of cash, $244.7 million available under the Amended Loan Agreement and outstanding debt of $339.2 million, including the finance lease liability of $7.8 million. Based on this liquidity and borrowing capacity, the Company believes it is well-positioned to manage through the working capital demands and the heightened uncertainty in the current macroeconomic environment. The Company believes that cash on hand, cash flows from operations and available capacity under its Amended Loan Agreement will be sufficient to meet expected business requirements including capital expenditures, dividends, working capital, debt service, and to fund future growth.
Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations, including intercompany cash flows, was $26.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, compared to $10.3 million in the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily due to higher net income from continuing operations in the current period and changes in working capital. In the first quarter of 2026, accounts receivable was a use of $8.6 million, which was more than offset by $9.9 million and $2.1 million provided by accounts payable and inventory, respectively. This compares to the first quarter of 2025, where accounts receivable and inventory were uses of $20.7 million and $6.6 million, respectively, partially offset by $18.7 million provided by accounts payable. The company views changes in working capital to be related to volume and timing. In total, cash generated from working capital was $4.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, compared to cash used for working capital of $8.2 million in the prior year to date period.
Investing Activities
Net cash used for investing activities from continuing operations was $2.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 compared to cash used of $8.0 million for the same period in 2025. Capital expenditures were $2.8 million and $8.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Full year 2026 capital expenditures are expected to be approximately 3.5% of revenue.
20
Financing Activities
Cash used by financing activities from continuing operations was $20.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 compared to cash provided by financing activities from continuing operations of $1.0 million for the same period in 2025. Net borrowings (repayments) of the Company's revolving credit facility were $0.0 million and $13.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The Company also made repayments of the Term Loan A totaling $15.0 million and $5.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Net proceeds from the issuance of common stock in connection with incentive stock option exercises were $0.3 million for both the quarter ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. Cash paid for tax withholdings on vesting of stock compensation totaled $0.7 million and $0.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The Company also used $1.0 million for the repurchase of its common stock, for the quarter ended March 31, 2025. The Company also used cash to pay dividends of $5.1 million and $5.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Credit Sources
First Amendment to Loan Agreement
On February 8, 2024, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Seventh Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (“Amendment No. 1”), which amended the Seventh Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (the "Loan Agreement” – see also Note 11) dated September 29, 2022 (collectively, the “Amended Loan Agreement”). Amendment No. 1, among other things, permitted the acquisition of Signature Systems and provided a new 5-year $400 million term loan facility (“Term Loan A”). Term Loan A will amortize in eight quarterly installment payments of $5 million beginning June 30, 2024, quarterly installment payments of $10 million thereafter, and any remaining balance due upon maturity. Term Loan A may be voluntarily prepaid at any time, in whole or in part, without penalty or premium, however, all amounts repaid or prepaid in respect of Term Loan A may not be reborrowed.
Amendment No. 1 did not change the existing revolving credit facility’s September 29, 2027 maturity date or $250 million borrowing limit, which includes a letter of credit subfacility and swingline subfacility. In connection with Amendment No. 1, the Company incurred deferred financing fees of $9.2 million.
On May 2, 2024, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to mitigate the variable interest rate risk of borrowings under the Amended Loan Agreement. The swap has a beginning notional value of $200.0 million, which reduces proportionately with scheduled Term Loan A amortization payments, and has a final maturity date of January 31, 2029. At March 31, 2026, the remaining notional value of the Company's interest rate swap totaled $180.0 million. The swap is designated as a cash flow hedge and effectively results in a fixed rate of 4.606% plus the applicable margin for the hedged debt, as described in Notes 1 and 11.
As of March 31, 2026, $244.7 million was available under the Amended Loan Agreement, after borrowings and the Company had $5.3 million of letters of credit issued related to insurance and other financing contracts in the ordinary course of business. Borrowings under the Amended Loan Agreement bear interest at the Term SOFR, RFR, SONIA, EURIBOR and CORRA-based borrowing rates.
As of March 31, 2026, the Company was in compliance with all of its debt covenants. The most restrictive financial covenants for all of the Company’s debt are a net leverage ratio (defined as net debt divided by earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted) and an interest coverage ratio (defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted, divided by interest expense). The ratios as calculated under the terms of the Amended Loan Agreement as of and for the period ended March 31, 2026 are shown in the following table:

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably expected to have, a material current or future effect on its financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources at March 31, 2026.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Interest Rate Risk
The Company has certain financing arrangements that require interest payments based on floating interest rates, and to that extent, the Company’s financial results are subject to changes in the market rate of interest. Borrowings under the Amended Loan Agreement bear interest at the Term SOFR, RFR, SONIA, EURIBOR and CORRA-based borrowing rates. Based on current debt levels at March 31, 2026, if market interest rates decrease or increase one percent, the Company’s annual variable interest expense would change by approximately $1.6 million.
The Company has entered into an interest rate swap agreement to mitigate the variable interest rate risk under the Amended Loan Agreement, which effectively results in a fixed rate debt on a portion of its outstanding borrowings. Based on current debt levels at March 31, 2026, if market interest rates decrease or increase one percent, the Company's annual fixed rate interest expense on the fair value of the interest rate swap would change by approximately $4.2 million.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries operate in foreign countries and their financial results are subject to exchange rate movements. The Company has operations in Canada and Europe with foreign currency exposure, primarily due to U.S. dollar sales made from businesses in Canada and Europe to customers in the United States. The Company manages its exposure to foreign currency risk by promptly converting funds to U.S. dollars. At March 31, 2026, the Company had no foreign currency arrangements or contracts in place.
Commodity Price Risk
The Company uses certain commodity raw materials, primarily plastic resins, and other commodities, such as natural gas, in its operations. The cost of operations can be affected by changes in the market for these commodities, particularly plastic resins. The Company currently has no derivative contracts to hedge changes in raw material pricing. The Company may from time to time enter into forward buy positions for certain utility costs, which were not material at March 31, 2026. Significant future increases in the cost of plastic resin or other adverse changes in the general economic environment could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures, as defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
The Company carries out a variety of on-going procedures, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to evaluate the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2026.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the quarter ended March 31, 2026, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report 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
Certain legal proceedings in which the Company is involved are discussed in Note 10, Contingencies, in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I of this report, and Part I, Item 3 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. The Company’s disclosures relating to legal proceedings in Note 10, Contingencies, in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I of this report are incorporated into Part II of this report by reference. The Company is a defendant in various lawsuits and a party to various other legal proceedings, in the ordinary course of business, some of which are covered in whole or in part by insurance.
