Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the shareholders and the Board of Directors of Mayville Engineering Company, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Mayville Engineering Company, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss), shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established inInternal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 4, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

**Inventory –**Refer to Notes 1 and 3 to the financial statements

Critical Audit Matter Description

As of December 31, 2025, the Company holds inventory across a large number of manufacturing facilities dispersed throughout the United States. Inventories are primarily comprised of raw materials, work-in-process, and finished goods that are physically located at the Company's facilities. The Company’s processes to track and determine consolidated inventory relies on a perpetual inventory system that varies by facility based in part upon the information technology (IT) system relevant to the facility.

Auditing the existence of inventory requires significant effort, the involvement of IT specialists due to the integration of IT systems that track physical inventory quantities by facility, and auditor judgment in testing due to the disaggregation of inventory across the facilities and the processes and controls in place. Our auditor judgment includes assessing whether we have obtained sufficient audit evidence, including determining the number of facilities to visit.

How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit

Our audit procedures related to the existence of inventory included the following, among others:

●We involved senior members of the engagement team to determine the extent of testing, including the selection of facilities attended and the number of counts performed.
●With the assistance of our IT specialists, we tested the effectiveness of controls over management’s process to account for the physical existence of inventory, which included general IT, automated, and manual business process controls.
●As part of our testing of the effectiveness of controls over inventory, we observed management’s count procedures at selected facilities and obtained and evaluated management’s documentation of counts at other facilities.
●As part of our year-end audit procedures, we performed independent counts of inventory, on a sample basis at selected facilities, and evaluated any differences in the context of the inventory account balance taken as a whole.

Acquisition — Accu-Fab, LLC — Valuation of Customer Relationships — Refer to Note 2 to the financial statements

Critical Audit Matter Description

On July 1, 2025, the Company acquired 100% of the membership interests of Accu-Fab, LLC (“Accu-Fab”). The Company accounted for the acquisition using the acquisition method of accounting. Accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values, including the customer relationships intangible asset of $67.0 million. Management estimated the fair value of the customer relationships utilizing the multi-period excess earnings method (MPEEM). The fair value determination of the intangible assets required management to make significant estimates and assumptions, including the discount rate, customer attrition rate, and the determination of future cash flows including revenue growth rates and EBITDA margins.

We identified the valuation and recording of the customer relationships intangible asset as a critical audit matter because of the significant estimates and assumptions management makes to determine the fair value this asset. This required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort, including the need to involve our internal fair value specialists.

How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit

Our audit procedures related to the selection of the discount rate and attrition rate, and the determination of future cash flows including revenue growth rates and EBITDA margins, included the following, among others:

●We tested the effectiveness of controls over the valuation of the customer relationship, including management's controls over the selection of the discount rate and attrition rate, and the determination of future cash flows including revenue growth rates and EBITDA margins.
●We assessed the reasonableness of management’s forecasts by comparing the projections to historical results and industry data.
●We tested the accuracy and completeness of underlying customer attrition data used by management.
●We involved valuation professionals with specialized skills and knowledge who:
oEvaluated the discount rate, including testing the underlying market-based source information and the mathematical accuracy of the calculations, and developing a range of independent valuation assumptions and comparing those to the discount rate selected by management.
oEvaluated the estimated customer attrition rate, including testing the mathematical accuracy of the calculations, comparing the selected attrition rate against relevant historical customer attrition data, and developing a range of attrition rates and comparing those to the attrition rate selected by management.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the shareholders and the Board of Directors of Mayville Engineering Company, Inc.

Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Mayville Engineering Company, Inc and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established inInternal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established inInternal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025, of the Company and our report dated March 4, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

As described in Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, management excluded from its assessment the internal control over financial reporting at Accu-Fab, LLC (“Accu-Fab”), which was acquired on July 1, 2025, and whose financial statements constitute 2% and 3% of the net and total assets (excluding acquired goodwill and intangibles which were included in management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025) respectively, and 7% of net sales of the Company’s consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025. Accordingly, our audit did not include the internal control over financial reporting at Accu-Fab.

Basis for Opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(in thousands, except share amounts and per share data)

Note 1. Nature of business and summary of significant accounting policies

Mayville Engineering Company, Inc. (MEC) is a leading U.S.-based, vertically-integrated, value-added manufacturing partner providing a full suite of manufacturing solutions from concept to production, including design, prototyping and tooling, fabrication, aluminum extrusion, coating, assembly and aftermarket components. Our customers operate in diverse end markets, including heavy- and medium-duty commercial vehicles, construction & access equipment, powersports, data center & critical power, agriculture, military and other end markets. Founded in 1945 and headquartered in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, we are a leading Tier I U.S. supplier of highly engineered components to original equipment manufacturer (OEM) customers with leading positions in their respective markets. The Company maintains 27 facilities, of which 25 are in operation, located in Arkansas, Illinois, North Carolina, Michigan, Mississippi, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Wisconsin. Our engineering expertise and technical know-how allow us to add value through every product redevelopment cycle.

Ourone operating segment focuses on producing metal components that are used in a broad range of heavy- and medium-duty commercial vehicles, construction & access equipment, powersports, data center & critical power, agricultural, military and other products.

Basis of presentation and consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). They include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all highly-liquid investments purchased with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash and cash equivalents.

Concentration of credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist principally of bank balances above the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurability limits of $250 per official custodian. The Company has not experienced any losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash.

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable are generally uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms requiring payment within 30 to 60 days from the invoice date. Management periodically reviews past due balances and established an allowance for doubtful accounts of $577 and $248 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, for probable uncollectible amounts based on its assessment of the current status of individual accounts. The estimated valuation allowance results in a reduction to sales and the accounts are written-off through a charge to the valuation allowance and a credit to accounts receivable after the Company has used all reasonable collection efforts.

As the Company's customer base is principally made up of blue-chip OEMs with high credit ratings and our trade receivables are due within one year or less, the Company does not have a reserve for credit losses.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on the first-in, first-out method (FIFO), or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. Work-in-process and finished goods are valued at production cost consisting of material, labor and overhead. The Company maintains a reserve for obsolete and slow-moving inventory of $2,572 and $2,307 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which is based upon the aging of current inventory as well as assumptions on future demand and market conditions.

Tooling in progress

The Company has agreements with its customers to provide production tooling which will be used to produce specific parts for its customers. The costs to design, engineer, and manufacture the tooling are charged to tooling in progress as incurred and based on when control of the tooling is transferred to the customer under contract or when the customer signs off through the Product Part Approval Process (PPAP) or other documented customer acceptance, at a point in time. The Company may also provide production tooling that is not sold to customers but is capitalized in property, plant and equipment. To the extent that estimated costs exceed expected reimbursement from the customer, the Company recognizes a loss. Tooling in progress was $4,746 and $4,761 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for additions and improvements are capitalized while replacements, maintenance and repairs which do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets are expensed as incurred. Properties sold, or otherwise disposed of, are removed from the property accounts, with gains or losses on disposal credited or charged to the results of operations. Depreciation is recognized over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, using the straight-line depreciation method for financial reporting purposes and begins when the asset is placed into service.

Leases

The Company’s operating leases represent leases of real property, vehicles, and equipment. The Company’s finance leases represent leases for vehicles and equipment. A right-of-use (ROU) asset and a corresponding lease liability are recognized at commencement for contracts that are, or contain, a lease with an original term greater than 12 months. The Company has not elected to recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities for leases with a term of twelve months or less. See Note 5 – Leases in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Business combinations

The Company accounts for business combinations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 805,Business Combinations. In connection with a business combination, the acquiring company must allocate the cost of the acquisition to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on fair values as of the acquisition date. Any excess or shortage of amounts assigned to assets and liabilities over or under the purchase price is recorded as goodwill or a gain on bargain purchase price, respectively. Transaction costs associated with acquisitions are expensed as incurred within selling, general and administrative expenses.

Goodwill

We test goodwill for impairment annually, or more frequently if triggering events occur indicating that there may be an impairment. We have recorded goodwill and perform testing for potential goodwill impairment at a reporting unit level. A reporting unit is an operating segment, or a business unit one level below an operating segment for which discrete financial information is available, and for which management regularly reviews the operating results. Additionally, components within an operating segment can be aggregated as a single reporting unit if they have similar economic characteristics. We have concluded we haveone reporting unit.

We determine the fair value of our reporting unit using an income approach. Under the income approach, we calculate the fair value of the reporting unit based on the present value of estimated future cash flows. The income approach is dependent on several key management assumptions, including estimates of future sales, gross margins, operating costs, interest expense, income tax rates, capital expenditures, changes in working capital requirements and the weighted average cost of capital or the discount rate. Discount rate assumptions include an assessment of the risk inherent in the future cash flows of the reporting unit. Expected cash flows used under the income approach are developed in conjunction with our budgeting and forecasting process.

We test our goodwill for impairment on an annual basis in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, and more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had goodwill with a balance of $140,246 and $92,650, respectively, with the fair value of our reporting unit substantially exceeding the carrying value.

If the market valuation of our common shares or operating results of our reporting unit significantly decline beyond current levels, we may again need to conduct an evaluation of the fair value of our goodwill, which may result in an impairment change.

Changes to management assumptions and estimates utilized in the income approach could negatively impact the fair value conclusions for our reporting units resulting in goodwill impairment. All key assumptions and valuations are determined by and are the responsibility of management. The factors used in the impairment analysis are inherently subject to uncertainty. We believe that the estimates and assumptions are reasonable to determine the fair value of our reporting unit, however, if actual results are not consistent with these estimates and assumptions, goodwill and other intangible assets may be overstated which could result in an impairment charge.

Intangible assets, net

The Company’s primary other intangible assets are customer relationships and contracts, trade names, non-compete agreements, developed technology and patents acquired in business combinations. Intangible assets are initially valued using a methodology commensurate with the intended use of the asset. The costs of amortizable intangible assets are recognized over their expected useful lives using the straight-line method. Intangible assets that are subject to amortization are evaluated for impairment using the same process that is used to evaluate long-lived assets described below. Intangible assets not subject to amortization are assessed for impairment at least annually in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that an asset may be impaired. The impairment test for indefinite-lived intangible assets consists of a comparison of the fair value of the intangible asset with its carrying amount. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset.

Fair value of financial instruments

Financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and long-term debt. The carrying amount of all significant financial instruments approximates fair value due to either the short maturity or the existence of variable interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates. Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable are classified as Level 1 fair value inputs as further described in Note 13 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments. Long-term debt is classified as a Level 2 fair value input.

Impairment of long-lived assets

When events or conditions warrant, the Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets and considers whether these assets are impaired. The Company assesses the recoverability of these assets based on several factors, including management’s intention with respect to these assets and their projected undiscounted cash flows. If projected undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the respective assets, the Company adjusts the carrying amounts of such assets to their estimated fair value. To the extent that the carrying value of the net assets of an asset group is greater than the estimated fair value, the Company may be required to record impairment charges. The Company records intangible asset impairment charges as a reduction to intangible assets. The Company records other long-lived asset impairment charges as a reduction to property, plant and equipment or a reduction to ROU asset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Deferred financing costs

Loan issuance costs and discounts are capitalized upon the issuance of long-term debt and amortized over the life of the related debt. Loan issuance costs associated with revolving debt arrangements are presented as a component of other assets. Loan issuance costs incurred in connection with revolving debt arrangements are amortized using the straight-line method over the life of the credit agreement. Loan issuance costs and discounts incurred in connection with term debt are amortized using the effective interest method. Amortization of deferred loan issuance costs and discounts are included in interest expense.

During 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded deferred financing costs associated with its long-term debt and line of credit of $818 and $0, respectively. Amortization expense associated with the deferred debt issuance costs and discounts in 2025, 2024 and 2023 was $271, $282 and $309, respectively. Accumulated amortization was $842 and $423 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Amendments made to existing debt in 2023 resulted in the write-off of $216 in unamortized costs associated with the debt that was replaced during the twelve months ended December 31, 2023.

Revenue recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when control of the goods or services are transferred to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The Company enters into supply agreements and purchase orders that include both free on board (FOB) origin and FOB destination shipping terms. Depending on the terms of the agreement, the customer takes ownership at shipment or at delivery, and this is when control transfers. Sales are supported by documentation such as supply agreements and purchase orders, which specify certain terms and conditions including product specifications, quantities, fixed prices, delivery dates and payments terms. Revenue related to services is recognized in the period services are performed, thus the Company recognizes revenue at a point in time.

There are many customers where the Company designs, engineers and builds production tooling, which is purchased by the customer. Tooling revenue is recognized at the point the customer signs off on the product through PPAP or other documented customer acceptance and control of the tooling promised under a contract is transferred to the customer at a point in time. Revenue is recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for the tooling.

The Company offers certain customers discounts for early payments. These discounts are recorded against net sales in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income and accounts receivable in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company does not offer any other customer incentives, rebates or allowances.

Shipping and handling

The shipping and handling costs incurred by the Company are included in cost of sales on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. These costs are generally comprised of salaries and wages, shipping supplies and warehouse costs. Inbound freight costs, which mostly relate to raw materials, are included in cost of sales on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. Outbound freight costs, which mostly relate to sales, are included in net sales on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The Company does not charge customers nor recognize revenue for shipping and handling. The Company’s OEM customers arrange and pay the freight for delivery.

Advertising

The Company expenses the costs of advertising when incurred. Advertising expense was $87, $105 and $141 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Advertising costs are charged to selling, general and administrative expenses.

Income taxes

Income taxes and uncertain tax positions are accounted for in accordance with ASC 740,Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred income taxes are provided for the differences between the bases of assets and liabilities for financial reporting and income tax purposes. The Company measures deferred tax assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse and recognizes the effect of a change in enacted rates in the period of enactment. Tax positions

meeting the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured pursuant to the guidance set forth in ASC 740. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. See Note 8 – Income Taxes of these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Earnings per share

The Company computes basic earnings per share by dividing net income available to shareholders by the actual weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the reporting period. The dilutive impact to basic earnings per share considers the impact to earnings if all convertible securities were exercised or outstanding that do not have an antidilutive impact on earnings per share.

Treasury stock

Treasury stock purchases are accounted for under the cost method whereby the entire cost of the acquired stock is recorded as treasury stock. Subsequent reissuance of shares to the 401(k) Plan or ESOP are recorded as a reduction to treasury stock and as ESOP expense in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-09,* Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures*, amending ASC 740,*Income Taxes.*The amendment is intended to enhance the transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The amendments require that on an annual basis, entities disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. In addition, the amendments require that entities disclose additional information about income taxes paid as well as additional disclosures of pretax income and income tax expense and remove the requirement to disclose certain items that are no longer considered cost beneficial or relevant. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this standard in the fourth quarter of 2025 and the amendments have been applied on a retrospective basis. Adoption of ASU 2023-09 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03,* Expense Disaggregation Disclosures,*amending ASC 220,*Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income.*The amendment requires an entity to provide a disclosure within the financial statement footnotes showing the disaggregation of certain expenses included in relevant expense captions on the consolidated income statement, with a qualitative description of the amounts that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively. The guidance also requires disclosure of the total amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, an entity’s definition of selling expenses. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The guidance is applied on a prospective basis, with a retrospective option and allows for early adoption. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on the consolidated financial statements.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06,* Intangibles – Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software,amending ASC 350.*The amendment removes all references to prescriptive and sequential software development stages. In addition, the amendment also requires consideration whether there is significant uncertainty associated with the development activities of the software during evaluation of probable-to-complete recognition threshold. ASU 2025-06 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Entities may adopt the guidance using either a prospective approach (including a modified transition approach) or retrospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has early adopted ASU 2025-06 on a prospective basis, as of January 1, 2026. The adoption of the ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11,Interim Reporting - Narrow-Scope Improvements, amending ASC 270. The ASU clarifies interim disclosure requirements and the applicability of ASC 270. The objective of the amendments is to provide further clarity about the current interim disclosure requirements. The ASU is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting

periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Adoption of this ASU can be applied either a prospective or a retrospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on the consolidated financial statements.

The ASU is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on the consolidated financial statements.

Note 2. Acquisitions

On July 1, 2025, the Company acquired 100% of the membership interests of Accu-Fab, LLC (Accu-Fab). The acquisition was consummated in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement dated May 23, 2025, among the Company, Accu-Fab, and Tide Rock YieldCo, LLC (the Seller). The purchase price of the acquisition was $140,500, subject to customary adjustments for the amount of cash, indebtedness, net working capital, and certain expenses of Accu-Fab as of the closing. The acquisition of Accu-Fab was structured as a stock purchase for accounting purposes. As of the closing of the acquisition, after taking into account the estimated adjustments, the Company paid the Seller a total net consideration of $141,185. The final working capital settlement, completed during the three months ended December 31, 2025, is described below. The Company financed the acquisition by borrowing under its amended and restated credit agreement, as amended, as described in Note 4 - Debt in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

With locations in Wheeling, Illinois and Raleigh, North Carolina, Accu-Fab is a vertically integrated manufacturing partner providing technology driven, cutting edge metal fabrication solutions to large OEMs. Accu-Fab offers value-added services including design, engineering, sheet metal fabrication and integration, and specialized finishing. The acquisition enhances MEC’s strategic position by broadening its customer base and accelerating its entry into the rapidly growing data center & critical power infrastructure end markets.

The Company accounted for the acquisition using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805,Business Combinations, with MEC being the acquiring entity. Transaction costs related to the acquisition were expensed as incurred within other selling, general, and administrative expenses and totaled $3,423 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025. The net sales and operating income of Accu-Fab, which is consolidated in MEC’s financial statements presented herein, since July 1, 2025 were $40,697 and $7,335, respectively, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025.

The aggregate purchase price has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their preliminary estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The estimate of the excess purchase price over the preliminary estimated fair value of net tangible assets acquired was allocated to identifiable intangible assets and goodwill. The Company engaged an independent third party to assist with the identification and valuation of the acquired assets, including intangible assets. Management makes significant estimates and assumptions when determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. These estimates include, but are not limited to, discount rates, projected future net sales, projected future expected cash flows, useful lives, attrition rates, and growth rates. These measures are based on significant Level 3 inputs not observable in the market.

The following table is a summary of the assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and net cash consideration paid for the acquisition of Accu-Fab. The allocation is considered preliminary and subject to finalization within one year from the acquisition date:

Inventory was valued at its estimated fair value, which is defined as expected sales price, less costs to sell, plus a reasonable margin for selling effort. The valuation resulted in an inventory fair value step-up of $591 and was fully expensed and reflected in cost of sales on the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income (Loss) during the twelve months ended December 31, 2025.

Property, plant and equipment was valued at its estimated fair value using the cost, market and sales comparison approaches. The valuation resulted in a property, plant and equipment fair value step-up of $5,326. Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the respective assets.

The Company also recorded $67,000 of customer relationships intangible assets with useful lives offourteen years and $2,200 of non-compete agreement intangible assets with useful lives oftwo years. The purchase price allocated to these assets was based on management’s forecasted cash inflows and outflows and the multi-period excess earnings method for customer relationships and the with and without method for the non-compete agreements. Amortization expense related to these intangible assets is recorded on a straight-line basis and reflected in amortization of intangible assets on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).

The purchase price of Accu-Fab exceeded the preliminary estimated fair value of identifiable net assets and accordingly, the difference was allocated to goodwill, all of which is tax deductible. Goodwill will be tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired, in accordance with ASC 350,Intangibles*– Goodwill and Other*. The goodwill recognized primarily reflects expected synergies from integrating Accu-Fab’s operations into the Company’s existing manufacturing platform, the assembled workforce, and other intangible assets that do not meet the criteria for separate recognition under ASC 805.

The Company believes that the information gathered to date provides a reasonable basis for estimating the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed; however, the purchase price allocation remains preliminary as we continue to gather the necessary information to finalize our fair value estimates and provisional amounts. Provisional amounts include items related to working capital adjustments, intangibles, indemnification of assets and liabilities and deferred taxes. During the three months ended December 31, 2025, the Company finalized the net working capital settlement with the Seller, resulting in an adjustment of $108 to the purchase consideration related to working capital adjustments.

The Company has recorded preliminary estimates for the items that remain subject to valuation and will record adjustments, if any, to the preliminary amounts upon finalization of the respective valuations. Such changes are not expected to be significant. The Company expects to complete the purchase price allocation as soon as practicable but no later than one year from the acquisition date.

Pro Forma Financial Information (Unaudited)

In accordance with ASC 805, the following unaudited pro forma combined results of operations have been prepared and presented to give effect to the Accu-Fab acquisition as if it had occurred on January 1, 2024, the beginning of the comparable period, applying certain assumptions and pro forma adjustments. These pro forma adjustments primarily relate to the estimated depreciation expense associated with the fair value of the acquired property, plant and equipment, amortization of identifiable intangible assets, interest expense related to additional debt needed to fund the acquisition and the tax impact of these adjustments. Additionally, the pro forma adjustments exclude non-recurring expenses related to transaction costs, which were expensed as incurred, and include the sale of stepped-up inventory. The unaudited pro forma consolidated results are provided for illustrative purposes only, are not indicative of the Company’s actual consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position and do not reflect any revenue and operating synergies or cost savings that may result from the acquisition.

Note 4. Debt

On June 28, 2023, and as amended on June 26, 2025, we entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the Credit Agreement) with certain lenders and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent (the Agent). The June 26, 2025, amendment increased the amount of total allowable borrowings under the revolving credit facility to $350,000 from $250,000, by exercising the previously available $100,000 accordion feature. All other material terms of the Credit Agreement, including applicable interest rates, remained unchanged. All amounts borrowed under the Credit Agreement mature on June 28, 2028.

The Credit Agreement contains usual and customary negative covenants for agreements of this type, including, but not limited to, restrictions on our ability to, subject to certain exceptions, create, incur or assume indebtedness; create, incur, assume or suffer to exist liens; make certain investments; allow our subsidiaries to merge or consolidate with another entity; make certain asset dispositions; pay certain dividends or other distributions to shareholders; enter into transactions with affiliates; enter into sale leaseback transactions; and exceed the limits on annual capital expenditures. The Credit Agreement also requires us to satisfy certain financial covenants, including a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio of 3.00 to 1.00 as well as a consolidated total leverage ratio not to exceed 3.50 to 1.00. This ratio increases to 4.00 to 1.00 for the four quarters following an acquisition provided the acquisition meets certain agreed upon terms. The Accu-Fab acquisition on July 1, 2025 met these terms.

The Company incurred financing costs of $818 associated with executing the June 26, 2025, amendment. As of December 31, 2025, short-term and long-term balances of $273 and $409, respectively, were recorded in prepaid expenses and other current assets and other long-term assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. These deferred financing costs will be amortized over the remaining duration of the Credit Agreement.

At December 31, 2025, our consolidated total leverage ratio was 3.68 to 1.00 as compared to a covenant maximum of 4.00 to 1.00 under the Credit Agreement.

At December 31, 2025, our consolidated interest coverage ratio was 5.47 to 1.00 as compared to a covenant minimum of 3.00 to 1.00 under the Credit Agreement.

Under the Credit Agreement, interest is payable quarterly at the adjusted secured overnight financing rate (SOFR) plus an applicable margin based on the current consolidated total leverage ratio (which may be adjusted for certain reserve requirements), plus 1.25% to 2.75% depending on the current consolidated total leverage ratio. Under certain circumstances, we may not be able to pay interest based on SOFR. If that happens, we will be required to pay interest at the Base Rate, which is the sum of the higher of (i) the Prime Rate (as publicly announced by the Agent from time to time), (ii) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, and (iii) Adjusted Term SOFR for a one-month tenor in effect on such dayplus 1.00%. The interest rate was 5.98% and 6.55% as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Additionally, the agreement has a fee on the average daily unused portion of the aggregate unused revolving commitments. This fee was 0.30% and 0.25% as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants of its credit agreements as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The amount borrowed on the revolving credit notes was $202,525 and $79,725 as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

On February 25, 2026, we entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement. The February 25, 2026, amendment lowered the amount of total allowable borrowings under the revolving credit facility to $275,000 from $350,000 and reduced our minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio to 2.75 to 1.00, through the fourth quarter of 2026. The February 25, 2026, amendment also increased our maximum consolidated leverage ratio to 5.25 to 1.00 for the first and second quarter of 2026,5.00 to 1.00 for the third quarter of 2026,4.00 to 1.00 for the fourth quarter of 2026 and 3.50 to 1.00 for 2027 and thereafter. As a result of these financial covenant changes, the interest pricing grid now includes additional interest rate tiers. All other material terms of the Credit Agreement remained unchanged. All amounts borrowed under the Credit Agreement mature on June 28, 2028.

Other Debt

Additionally, the Company has a Fond du Lac County and Fond du Lac Economic Development Corporation term note (Fond du Lac Term Note). The Fond du Lac Term Note is secured by a security agreement, payable in annual installments of $500 plus interest at 2.00% and is due in full in December 2028. The balance outstanding as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $1,375 and $1,875, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, the short-term and long-term balance of $500 and $875, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, the short-term and long-term balance was $500 and $1,375, respectively. These balances are recorded in other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Note 5. Leases

The Company has real property operating leases for office and manufacturing space. Operating leases for the Company’s personal property consist of leases for office equipment, vehicles, forklifts and storage tanks for bulk gases. The Company recognizes a right-of-use (ROU) asset and a lease liability for operating leases based on the net present value of future minimum lease payments. Lease expense for the Company’s operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, including renewal periods that are considered reasonably certain. The Company has not elected to recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities for leases with a term of twelve months or less.

The Company has finance leases for equipment used throughout its office and manufacturing facilities along with vehicles used by employees. The Company recognizes an ROU asset and a lease liability for finance leases based on the net present value of future minimum lease payments. Lease expense for the Company’s finance leases is comprised of the amortization of the ROU asset and interest expense recognized based on the effective interest method.

Variable lease expense is related to certain of the Company’s real property leases and personal property leases, and it generally consists of property tax and insurance components that are for the benefit of the lessor (real property leases) and variable overage fees (personal property leases) that are remitted as part of the Company’s lease payments.

The components of lease expense were as follows:

Note 9. Commitments and contingencies

Litigation

On August 4, 2022, the Company filed a lawsuit against Peloton Interactive, Inc. (“Peloton”) in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County. The lawsuit arose from a March 2021 Supply Agreement between the parties, pursuant to which MEC was to manufacture and supply custom component parts for Peloton’s exercise bikes (the “Manufacturing Project”). In the lawsuit, the Company originally assertedtwo claims (1) breach and anticipatory repudiation of contract and (2) breach of the duty of good faith and fair dealing (pleaded in the alternative). In January 2023, in response to Peloton’s motion to dismiss, the court allowed the first claim to proceed and dismissed the alternative claim. In the remaining claim, MEC asserted that Peloton breached and anticipatorily repudiated the Supply Agreement by unilaterally cancelling the Manufacturing Project, and refusing to pay MEC certain monthly fixed revenue payments owed under the terms of the Supply Agreement. The parties cross-appealed the court’s order on the motion to dismiss – Peloton appealed the portion of the order that denied the motion to dismiss the claim for breach and anticipatory repudiation of contract and MEC appealed the portion of the order that dismissed the claim for breach of duty of good faith and fair dealing. On April 11, 2024, the First Department, Appellate Division issued a decision and order affirming the court’s order on the motion to dismiss and affirming the court’s dismissal of the alternate claim of good faith and fair dealing. On November 3, 2023, Peloton filed a counterclaim alleging that Peloton was induced by fraud to enter into the Supply Agreement and seeking recission of the Supply Agreement and damages, among other forms of relief. On November 22, 2023, the Company answered Peloton’s counterclaim, denying the allegations in the counterclaim.

On October 28, 2024, the Company and Peloton entered into a formal Settlement Agreement (the “Agreement”) to resolve this lawsuit. Under the terms of the Agreement, MEC and Peloton agreed to dismiss the lawsuit and exchange mutual releases, and MEC received a gross payment of $25,500 from Peloton in the fourth quarter of the current year, with no admission of liability by either party.

From time to time, the Company may be involved in various claims and lawsuits, both for and against the Company, arising in the normal course of business. Although the results of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, in management’s opinion, either the likelihood of loss is remote, or any reasonably possible loss associated with the resolution of such proceedings is not expected to have a material adverse impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Note 10. Deferred compensation

The Mayville Engineering Company Deferred Compensation Plan is available for certain employees designated to be eligible to participate by the Company and approved by the Board of Directors. Eligible employees may elect to defer a portion of their compensation for any plan year and the deferral cannot exceed 50% of the participant’s base salary and may include the participant’s annual short-term cash incentive up to 100%. The participant’s election must be made prior to the first day of the plan year.

An employer contribution will be made for each participant to reflect the amount of any reduced allocations to the ESOP and/or 401(k) employer contributions due solely to the participant’s deferral amounts, as applicable. In addition, a discretionary amount may be awarded to a participant by the Company.

Deferrals are assumed to be invested in an investment vehicle based on the options made available to the participant (which does not include Company stock).

The deferred compensation plan provides benefits payable upon separation of service or death. Payments are to be made 30 days after date of separation from service, either in a lump-sum payment or up to five annual installments as elected by the participant when the participant first elects to defer compensation.

The deferred compensation plan is non-funded, and all future contributions are unsecured in that the employees have the status of a general unsecured creditor of the Company and the agreements constitute a promise by the Company to make benefit payments in the future. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, eligible employees elected to defer compensation of $837, $626 and $490, respectively. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the short-term portion accrued for all benefit years less than 12 months under this plan was $1,000 and $251, respectively, which is included within other current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the long-term portion accrued for all benefit years greater than 12 months under this plan was $5,240 and $4,719. These amounts include the initial deferral of compensation and were adjusted for changes in the value of investment options chosen by the participants. Total expense for the deferred compensation plan for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 amounted to $687, $524 and $942, respectively. These expenses are included in bonuses and deferred compensation on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). Additionally, the Company made distributions of $253, $286 and $18,520 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Note 11. Self-Funded insurance

The Company is self-funded for the medical benefits provided to its employees and their dependents. Healthcare costs are expensed as incurred and are based upon actual claims paid, reinsurance premiums, administration fees and estimated unpaid claims. The Company has an aggregate stop loss limit to mitigate risk. Expense related to this contract were $19,041, $24,014 and $20,292 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. An estimated accrued liability of $891 and $1,184 was recorded as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, for estimated unpaid claims and is included within other current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Note 12. Segments

The Company operates as a single reporting unit andsingle reporting segment, and that is managed on a consolidated basis. The Company derives revenue from its customers by providing value-added manufacturing solutions ranging from concept to production, including prototyping and tooling, production fabrication, coating, assembly and aftermarket components. The accounting policies of the Company'sone operating segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (CODM) is regularly provided with and assesses performance for itsone operating segment with only the consolidated expenses and net income as presented in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

The CODM uses these performance measures to evaluate the Company's profitability, deciding whether to reinvest profits into the segment or into other parts of the entity, such as acquisitions or to buy back Company common stock and monitor budget versus actual results.

All sales are generated and all assets are located within the United States and the business activities are managed at a consolidated level.

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer is the CODM.

Note 13. Fair value of financial instruments

Fair value provides information on what the Company may realize if certain assets were sold or might pay to transfer certain liabilities based upon an exit price. Financial assets and liabilities that are measured and reported at fair value are classified into a

three-level hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation process. A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy is based on the observability and objectivity of the pricing inputs, as follows:

●Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
●Level 2 – Significant directly observable data (other than Level 1 quoted prices) or significant indirectly observable data through corroboration with observable market data. Inputs would normally be (i) quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, (ii) quoted prices in inactive markets for identical or similar assets or liabilities or (iii) information derived from or corroborated by observable market data. Long-term debt is classified as a Level 2 fair value input.
●Level 3 – Prices or valuation techniques that require significant unobservable data inputs. These inputs would normally be the Company’s own data and judgements about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The following table lists the Company’s financial assets and liabilities accounted for at fair value by the fair value hierarchy:

​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​
​ · ​ · Balance at · ​ · Fair Value Measurements at
​ · ​ · December 31, · ​ · Report Date Using
​​ ​ ​2025​ ​ ​(Level 1)​ ​ ​(Level 2)​ ​ ​(Level 3)

Deferred compensation liability​$4,969​$4,969​$—​$—
Total​$4,969​$4,969​$—​$—

Fair value measurements for the Company’s cash and cash equivalents are classified based upon Level 1 measurements because such measurements are based upon quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets.

Accounts receivable, accounts payable, long-term debt and accrued liabilities are recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at cost and approximate fair value.

Deferred compensation liabilities are recorded at amounts due to participants at the time of deferral. Deferrals are invested in an investment vehicle based on the options made available to the participant, considered to be Level 1 or Level 2 on the fair value hierarchy, with the current balance all as Level 1. The change in fair value is recorded in the profit sharing, bonuses, and deferred compensation line item on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The short-term and long-term balances due to participants are reflected on the current portion of deferred compensation and deferred compensation, less current portion line items, respectively, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company’s non-financial assets such as goodwill, intangible assets and property, plant and equipment are re-measured at fair value when there is an indication of impairment and adjusted only when an impairment charge is recognized. For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, there wasno impairment recognized for the year.

Note 14. Revenue recognition

Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities

The Company has contract assets and contract liabilities, which are included in tooling in progress and other current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, respectively. Contract assets primarily consist of capitalized costs related to customer-owned tooling contracts, wherein the Company has not yet met performance obligations. Contract liabilities include deferred tooling revenue, where the performance obligation was not met. The performance obligation is satisfied when the tooling is completed and the

customer signs off through the Product Part Approval Process or other documented customer acceptance, either at a point in time or over a period of time is when revenue is recognized. Cost of goods sold is recognized and released from the balance sheet when control of the tooling promised under contract is transferred to the customer.

The Company’s contracts with customers are short-term in nature; therefore, revenue is typically recognized, billed and collected within a 12-month period. The following table reflects the changes in our contract assets and liabilities during the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.

Stock Options

Stock option grants to employees vest equally over atwo-year period beginning the subsequent year to the anniversary of the grant date and expire 10 years subsequent to the grant date.

The Company did not grant employees stock options in 2024 or 2025. Stock-based compensation expense related to stock options is calculated by estimating the fair value of non-qualified stock options at the time of grant and is amortized over the stock options’ vesting period. The Company recognized $173, $1,125 and $1,484 of compensation expense with stock options for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

The activity for stock options is summarized as follows:

​​​​​​
​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · Weighted-Average
​ · ​ ​ ​ · Number of Options · ​ ​ ​ · Exercise Price
Options nonvested as of December 31, 2023​186,349​$17.37

Grants—​​—
Forfeitures​—​​—
Vested​(113,701)​​15.99

During the twelve months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, options exercised were 125,363 and 879,388 respectively, with a weighted average strike price of $11.69 and $9.85, respectively, resulting in 22,283 and 264,247, respectively, of Company issued shares.

As of December 31, 2025, there were 35,009,43,291,77,427,155,173 and 24,814 options issued and outstanding at exercise prices of $17.00, $14.01, $10.32, $16.22 and $14.12 per share, respectively, with a remaining weighted average contractual life of 7.79 years. The intrinsic values of these outstanding options were $1.72, $4.71, $8.40,2.50 and $4.60, respectively, based on the Company’s stock price as of December 31, 2025.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes valuation model to estimate the fair value of stock options which were $9.28 for those options granted during the year ended December 31, 2023. There wereno stock options granted during 2025 and 2024.

The Company utilized the following assumptions in determining these fair values:

​​​​
​​​​
Assumptions · ​ ​ ​ · 2023
Stock price at date of grant/exercise price​$14.12
Expected term (in years)​​5.75
Estimated volatility​%58.5
Estimated risk-free rate of return​%3.9
Expected dividend yield​%0.0

The Company does not have historical option exercise data to estimate the expected term. For options granted, the Company utilizes the simplified method prescribed by Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) Topic 14 to estimate the expected term, which is calculated as the average of the vesting term and the contractual term. The option grants have a contractual life of 10 years and a requisite service period, or vesting term, of 2 years with 50% vesting on the annual anniversary dates. Applying the simplified method, the Company calculated the expected terms of each tranche to be 5.5 years and 6.0 years resulting in an average expected term of 5.75 years for these awards. The Company will continue to employ the simplified method until more relevant detailed information becomes available from which to make this estimate.

Restricted Stock Units

The Company granted 341,490 and 427,171 RSUs inclusive of non-employee director awards in 2025 and 2024, respectively. A total of 59,670 and 55,962 RSUs were granted to non-employee directors in 2025 and 2024, respectively, which vested the subsequent year to the grant date. The Company recognized $3,160, $3,686 and $3,001 of compensation expense associated with RSUs during the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

With the exception of the non-employee director grants, RSUs are earned based on service over the vesting period. RSUs granted to employees vest ratably over atwo- orthree-year period beginning the subsequent year to the anniversary of the grant date. The expense is based on the fair value of the Company's shares which is equivalent to the adjusted closing stock price at the date of the grant.

The activity for RSUs is summarized as follows:

​​​​​​
​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · Weighted-Average
​ · ​ ​ ​ · Number of Units · ​ ​ ​ · Grant Date Fair

Performance Share Units

The Company granted 169,062 and 110,710 of PSUs in 2025 and 2024, respectively.

The Company recognized ($55) and $375 of compensation expense associated with performance share units during the twelve months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

The performance goals for the PSUs granted are weighted 50% on the 3-year average of the Company’s Return on Invested Capital (“ROIC”) and 50% on the Company’s adjusted EBITDA target. ROIC represents net operating profit after taxes divided by invested capital for the represented period. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation expense, legal costs due to the former fitness customer and adjusted for items to be determined unusual in nature or infrequent in occurrence for the performance period, as approved by the Compensation

Committee. The number of earned PSUs can range from 50% (threshold) to 200% (maximum) of the target award, with no PSUs earned for performance below the threshold level.
