Macroeconomic Environment
Current report
The tariff and supply chain environment is complex and evolving. Beginning in the second quarter of 2025, the U.S. government implemented a series of significant new tariffs, including on imports from several countries where we source certain components and hardware products. Other countries have responded with retaliatory actions or plans for retaliatory actions. There has been significant uncertainty resulting from the implementation, termination, and conditional pause of these tariffs and the situation remains fluid, including because of the U.S. Supreme Court's decision that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act does not authorize the President to impose tariffs. Additionally, increased demand for hardware products and components from AI data center construction around the world has created uncertainty as to whether these products will be available or available in needed quantities and quality or at favorable or competitive prices. We continue to monitor macroeconomic trends and uncertainties in light of continuing changes to global trade policies and supply chain pressures, which may have adverse effects on our hardware revenue and hardware gross margin. As a result of these events, we anticipate increased supply chain challenges, commodity cost volatility, and consumer and economic uncertainty. Management continues to evaluate and implement mitigating actions, including potential supply chain resiliency movements, cost or pricing measures and alternative shipping practices, if needed, as the macroeconomic environment evolves.
Current report
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the "Act") was signed into law. The Act contains changes to U.S. federal tax law, including reinstatement of immediate expensing of domestic research and development expenditures, and has multiple effective dates. The enacted legislation did not have a material impact on our annual effective tax rate for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, and resulted in a decrease to taxes payable. We will continue to evaluate all applicable provisions of the legislation and their impact on our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2026 and beyond.

Current report
Total gross margin as a percentage of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025, increased to 43.5% as compared to 41.8% for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Current report
Subscription service margin as a percentage of subscription service revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025, increased to 54.7% as compared to 53.5% for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was substantially driven by operating efficiencies in hosting and customer support costs relative to the growth in subscription service revenues for both Engagement Cloud and Operator Cloud, as well as improved margin contributions stemming from post-acquisition operations of the Delaget product line and the inclusion of approximately two additional months of PAR Retail product line results in the current period. These improvements were partially offset by an impairment loss recorded in the current period related to the write-off of capitalized software development costs for the PAR Clear product.
Current report
Hardware margin as a percentage of hardware revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025, decreased to 22.9% as compared to 24.3% for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by increased supply chain costs resulting from recently implemented U.S. tariff policies, partially offset by a year-over-year reduction in compensation expense as we aligned our hardware-related workforce with organizational priorities. The Company began implementing pricing adjustments during the third quarter of 2025 to mitigate the impact of tariffs in future periods.
Current report
S&M expenses were $48.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, an increase of $7.2 million or 17.3% compared to $41.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was substantially driven by a $6.7 million increase in inorganic S&M expense stemming from post-acquisition operations of the Delaget product line and the inclusion of approximately six additional months of TASK Group S&M expense and two additional months of PAR Retail S&M expense in the current period. Organic S&M expense increased by $0.5 million, primarily driven by an increase in commission expense due to year-over-year sales growth.
Current report
G&A expenses were $122.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, an increase of $13.8 million or 12.7% compared to $108.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was substantially driven by a $10.8 million increase in inorganic G&A expense stemming from post-acquisition operations of the Delaget product line and the inclusion of approximately six additional months of TASK Group G&A expense and two additional months of PAR Retail G&A expense in the current period. The residual $3.0 million increase was primarily driven by certain non-cash or non-recurring expenses consisting of a $4.4 million increase in stock-based compensation expense and a $3.7 million litigation expense in the current period, partially offset by a $4.8 million decrease in costs related to transaction due diligence and integration and a $0.3 million decrease in severance costs related to non-recurring restructuring events.
Current report
R&D expenses were $81.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, an increase of $14.5 million or 21.6% compared to $67.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was substantially driven by a $9.5 million increase in inorganic R&D expense stemming from post-acquisition operations of the Delaget product line, the inclusion of approximately six additional months of TASK Group R&D expense and two additional months of PAR Retail R&D expense in the current period, and R&D expense resulting from the integration of assets acquired in the GoSkip Asset Acquisition. Organic R&D expense increased by $5.0 million, primarily driven by an increase in development costs as we continue to invest in improving and diversifying our product and service offerings.

Other (Expense) Income, Net
Current report
Interest expense, net was $6.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, a decrease of $4.1 million or 40.4% as compared to $10.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by the replacement of the Credit Facility with the 2030 Notes, which bear a lower interest rate.
Current report
After period end, the Company acquired approximately $17.1 million aggregate principal amount of its remaining outstanding 2026 Notes (the "Additional Exchanged Notes") in exchange for 485,186 shares of the Company's common stock, plus approximately $134,000 in cash for accrued and unpaid interest on the Additional Exchanged Notes to, but excluding, the closing date (the "Additional Notes Exchange"). Following the Additional Notes Exchange, an aggregate of approximately $2.9 million principal amount of the 2026 Notes remained outstanding.

Accounts Receivable – Current Expected Credit Losses
Current report
The Company maintains a provision for accounts receivables that it does not expect to collect. In accordance with ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, the Company accrues its estimated losses from uncollectible accounts receivable to the provision based upon recent historical experience, the length of time the receivable has been outstanding, other specific information as it becomes available, and reasonable and supportable forecasts not already reflected in the historical loss information. Provisions for current expected credit losses are charged to current operating expenses. Actual losses are charged against the provision when incurred.
Current report
Stock-Based Compensation
Current report
The Company records stock-based compensation for employee stock options, restricted stock awards, and restricted stock units using a straight-line method over the vesting period, based on the fair value at the grant date. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model, which incorporates assumptions as to the fair value of stock price, volatility, the expected life of options or awards, a risk-free interest rate, and dividend yield. In valuing stock options, significant judgment is required in determining the expected volatility of the Company's common stock and the expected life that individuals will hold their stock options prior to exercising. Expected volatility is based on the historical and implied volatility of the Company's common stock. The expected life of stock options is derived from the historical actual term of stock option grants and an estimate of future exercises during the remaining contractual period of the stock option. While volatility and estimated life are assumptions that do not bear the risk of change subsequent to the grant date of stock options, these assumptions may be difficult to measure, as they represent future expectations based on historical experience. Further, expected volatility and the expected life of stock options may change in the future, which could substantially change the grant-date fair value of future awards and, ultimately, the expense the Company records.
Current report
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Current report
The Company evaluates the accounting and reporting for the impairment of long-lived assets in accordance with the reporting requirements of ASC Topic 360-10, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. The Company will recognize impairment of long-lived assets or asset groups if the net book value of such assets exceeds the estimated future undiscounted cash flows attributable to such assets. If the carrying value of a long-lived asset or asset group is considered impaired, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair market value of the long-lived asset or asset group for assets to be held and used, or the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair market value less cost to sell for assets to be sold.

ARR is the annualized revenue from our subscription services, which includes subscription fees for our SaaS solutions and related support, managed platform development services, and transaction-based fees for payment processing services. We generally calculate ARR by annualizing the monthly recurring revenue for all active sites as of the last day of each month for the respective reporting period. ARR is an operating measure, it does not reflect our revenue determined in accordance with GAAP, and ARR should be viewed independently of, and not combined with or substituted for, our revenue and other financial information determined in accordance with GAAP. Further, ARR is not a forecast of future revenue and investors should not place undue reliance on ARR as an indicator of our future or expected results. Our reported ARR is based on a constant currency, using the exchange rates established at the beginning of the year and consistently applied throughout the period and to comparative periods presented. The table below presents our ARR on a constant currency basis, calculated using the exchange rates from 2024. For acquisitions made during each period, the constant currency rate applied is the exchange rate at the date of each acquisition's closure. There was no impact on our prior period ARR as a result of applying a constant currency as the exchange rate effects only began with the TASK Group Acquisition in 2024.

Our consolidated financial statements are based on the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. GAAP requires the use of estimates, assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenue, and expense amounts reported. We believe our use of estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently applied. Valuations based on estimates are reviewed for reasonableness and adequacy on a consistent basis. Significant items subject to these estimates and assumptions include revenue recognition, the recognition and measurement of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations at fair value, identifiable intangible assets and goodwill, valuation allowances for receivables, classification of discontinued operations, and valuation of excess and obsolete inventories. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Our estimates are subject to uncertainties, including those associated with market conditions, risks and trends. Refer to "Item 1A. Risk Factors" of this Annual Report for additional information. Refer to "Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" for additional information regarding our accounting policies and other disclosures required by GAAP.

Previous wording
We account for acquired businesses using in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, which requires that acquired assets and assumed liabilities be recorded at their respective fair values on the date of acquisition. The fair value of the consideration paid is assigned to the underlying net assets of the acquired business based on their respective fair values. Any excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired is recorded to goodwill. Intangible assets are amortized over the expected life of the asset. Fair value determinations and useful life estimates are based on, among other factors, estimates of expected future cash flows from revenues of the intangible assets acquired, estimates of appropriate discount rates used to present value expected future cash flows, estimated useful lives of the intangible assets acquired and other factors. Although we believe the assumptions and estimates we have made have been reasonable and appropriate, they are based, in part, on historical experience, information obtained from the management of the acquired companies and future expectations. For these and other reasons, actual results may vary significantly from estimated results.
