Ollie’s follows a 52/53-week fiscal year, which ends on the Saturday nearer to January 31 st of the following calendar year. References to the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026 refer to the 52-week period from February 2, 2025 to January 31, 2026 (“2025”). References to the fiscal year ended February 1, 2025 refer to the 52-week period from February 4, 2024 to February 1, 2025 (“2024”). References to the fiscal year ended February 3, 2024 refer to the 53-week period from January 29, 2023 to February 3, 2024 (“2023”).

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The Company considers cash on hand in stores, bank deposits, credit card receivables, and all highly liquid investments such as money market funds, treasury bonds, corporate bonds, U.S. agency bonds, and municipal bonds with maturities of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash and cash equivalents. Investments with maturities greater than three months, but less than 1 year at the date of acquisition are classified as short-term investments. Amounts receivable from debit card and credit card issuers are typically converted to cash within one to two business days of the original sales transaction.

Fair value is defined as the price which the Company would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. In determining fair value, GAAP establishes a three‑level hierarchy used in measuring fair value, as follows:

Index

Ollie’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, investment securities, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and the Company’s credit facilities. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable are representative of their respective fair value because of their short-term nature. Under the fair value hierarchy, the fair market values of cash equivalents and the investments in treasury bonds are Level 1 while the investments in U.S agency bonds, municipal, and corporate bonds are Level 2. Since quoted prices in active markets for identical assets are not available, these prices are determined by a third-party pricing service using observable market information such as quotes from less active markets and quoted prices of similar securities.

As of January 31, 2026 and February 1, 2025, the Company’s investment securities are classified as held-to-maturity since the Company has both the intent and ability to hold the investments to maturity. Such securities are carried at amortized cost plus accrued interest and consist of the following:

Short-term investment securities as of January 31, 2026 and February 1, 2025 all mature in one year or less. Long-term investment securities as of January 31, 2026 all mature after one year but within three years.

Index

A financial instrument which potentially subjects the Company to a concentration of credit risk is cash. Ollie’s currently maintains its day‑to‑day operating cash balances with major financial institutions. The Company’s operating cash balances are in excess of the FDIC insurance limit. Ollie’s invests temporary excess cash in overnight investments with expected minimal volatility, such as money market funds. Although the Company maintains balances which exceed the FDIC insured limit, it has not experienced any losses related to these balances.

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market determined using the retail inventory method on a first-in, first-out basis. The cost of inventories includes the merchandise cost, transportation costs, and certain distribution and storage costs. Such costs are thereafter expensed as cost of sales upon the sale of the merchandise.

Inherent in the retail inventory method are certain management judgments and estimates including, among others, merchandise markups, the amount and timing of permanent markdowns, and shrinkage, which may significantly impact both the ending inventory valuation and gross profit.

Factors considered in the determination of permanent markdowns include inventory obsolescence, excess inventories, current and anticipated demand, age of the merchandise, and customer preferences. Pursuant to the retail inventory method, permanent markdowns result in the devaluation of inventory and the resulting gross profit reduction is recognized in the period in which the markdown is recorded.

The Company calculates its shrink provision based on actual physical inventory results during the fiscal period and an accrual for estimated shrink occurring subsequent to a physical inventory through the end of the fiscal reporting period. This accrual is calculated as a percentage of sales for each retail store, at a department level, based on the Company’s most recent historical shrink rate adjusted, if necessary, for current economic conditions and business trends.

Property and equipment are stated at original cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are calculated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the related lease term. The lease term used for amortization includes renewal extension periods when the Company is reasonably certain that such lease will be extended. Expenditures for additions, renewals, and betterments are capitalized; expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes.

The useful lives for the purpose of computing depreciation and amortization are as follows:

The Company capitalizes direct internal and external development costs associated with internal-use software. These costs will be depreciated over the useful life of the software on a straight-line basis. Neither preliminary evaluation costs nor costs associated with the software after implementation are capitalized. For 2025, 2024, and 2023, the Company capitalized costs of approximately $2.1 million, $1.2 million, and $0.8 million, respectively.

The Company amortizes intangible assets over their useful lives unless it determines such lives to be indefinite. Goodwill and intangible assets having indefinite useful lives are not amortized to earnings, but instead are subject to annual impairment testing or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that the value of goodwill or intangible assets having indefinite useful lives might be impaired.

Index

Goodwill and intangible assets having indefinite useful lives are tested for impairment annually in the fiscal month of October. The Company has the option to evaluate qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not that the carrying amount of its sole reporting unit or its nonamortizing intangible assets (consisting of a tradename) exceed their implied respective fair value and whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative analysis to determine impairment. As part of this qualitative assessment, the Company weighs the relative impact of factors that are specific to its sole reporting unit or its nonamortizing intangible assets as well as industry, regulatory and macroeconomic factors that could affect the inputs used to determine the fair value of the assets.

If management determines a quantitative goodwill impairment test is required, or it elects to perform a quantitative test, the test is performed by determining the fair value of the Company’s sole reporting unit. Fair value is determined based on the Company’s public market capitalization. The carrying value of goodwill is considered impaired when the reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying value and the Company would record an impairment loss equal to the difference, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit.

For 2025, 2024, and 2023, the Company completed an impairment test of its goodwill and determined thatno impairment of goodwill existed.

If management determines a quantitative analysis of intangible assets having indefinite useful lives is required, the test is performed using the discounted cash flow method based on management’s projections of future revenues and an estimated royalty rate to determine the fair value of the asset, specifically, the Company’s tradename. An impairment loss is recognized for any excess of the carrying amount of the asset over the implied fair value of that asset.

For 2025, 2024, and 2023, the Company completed an impairment test of its tradename and determined thatno impairment of the asset existed.

Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If circumstances require a long-lived asset or asset group be tested for possible impairment, the Company first compares undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by that asset or asset group to its carrying value. If the carrying value of the long-lived asset or asset group is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, impairment is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary.

The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for stock-based compensation based on the grant date fair value of the employee stock award. For stock option awards, the Company estimates grant date fair value using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. For restricted stock unit awards, grant date fair value is determined based on the closing trading value of the Company’s stock on the date of grant. In both cases, stock-based compensation is recorded on a straight-line basis over the vesting period for the entire award.

Cost of sales includes merchandise costs, inventory markdowns, shrinkage and transportation, distribution and warehousing costs, including depreciation and amortization.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) are comprised of payroll and benefits for stores, field support, and support center associates. SG&A also include marketing and advertising expense, occupancy costs for stores and the store support center, insurance, corporate infrastructure, and other general expenses.

Advertising costs primarily consist of print flyers, digital media, email campaigns, and media broadcasts and are generally expensed the first time the advertising occurs. Advertising expense for 2025, 2024, and 2023 was $77.3 million, $69.8 million, and $64.5 million, respectively.

Index

The Company generally leases its store locations, distribution centers, and office facilities. Many of the lease agreements contain rent holidays, rent escalation clauses, and contingent rent provisions – or some combination of these items. For leases of store locations and the store support centers, the Company recognizes rent expense in SG&A. For leases of distribution centers, the Company recognizes rent expense within cost of sales. All rent expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the accounting lease term, which includes lease renewals determined to be reasonably certain.

The Company recognizes operating lease assets and liabilities at the lease commencement date in accordance with ASC 842, Leases (Topic 842). Operating lease liabilities represent the present value of lease payments not yet paid. Operating lease assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term. The Company’s lessors do not provide an implicit rate, nor is one readily available, therefore the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the portfolio approach, which applies one rate to leases within a given period. The incremental borrowing rate is used to discount future cash flows and is an estimate which is determined by an analysis of the rate of interest it would have to pay on a collateralized basis to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments under similar terms and current market conditions.

Pre-opening expenses consist of expenses of opening new stores and distribution centers, as well as store remodel and store closing costs. For opening new stores, pre-opening expenses include grand opening advertising costs, payroll expenses, travel expenses, employee training costs, rent expenses, and store setup costs. Pre-opening expenses for new stores are expensed as they are incurred. For opening distribution centers, pre-opening expenses primarily include inventory transportation costs, employee travel expenses, and occupancy costs. Store remodel costs primarily consist of payroll expenses, travel expenses, and store setup costs expensed as they are incurred. Store closing costs primarily consist of insurance deductibles, rent, and store payroll.

Under a number of the Company’s insurance programs, which include the Company’s employee health insurance program, its workers’ compensation and general liability insurance programs, the Company is liable for a portion of its losses. The Company estimates the accrued liabilities for its self-insurance programs using historical claims experience and loss reserves. To limit the Company’s exposure to losses, a stop‑loss coverage is maintained through third‑party insurers.

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized.

Ollie’s files consolidated federal and state income tax returns. For tax years prior to 2022, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations. State income tax returns are filed in various state tax jurisdictions, as appropriate, with varying statutes of limitation and remain subject to examination for varying periods up tothree tofour years depending on the state.

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, after giving effect to the potential dilution, if applicable, from the assumed exercise of stock options into shares of common stock as if those stock options were exercised and the assumed lapse of restrictions on restricted stock units.

Index

The following table summarizes those effects for the diluted earnings per common share calculation:

The effect of the weighted average assumed exercise of stock options outstanding, totaling 97,336,262,523, and 582,645 as of January 31, 2026, February 1, 2025, and February 3, 2024, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted weighted average common shares outstanding because the effect would have been antidilutive.

The effect of weighted average non-vested restricted stock units outstanding, totaling 9,284,1,239, and 11,717 as of January 31, 2026, February 1, 2025, and February 3, 2024, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted weighted average common shares outstanding because the effect would have been antidilutive.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures,” which modifies the disclosure requirements for income taxes. This ASU requires disclosure of tabular statutory to effective rate reconciliation in both percentages and dollars, additional disaggregated rate reconciliation categories, and disaggregation of both income taxes paid and income tax expense by jurisdiction. The Company adopted this ASU for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026 on a prospective basis. See Note 8 “Income Taxes” in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements for further detail.

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, “Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures”.

Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

Ollie’s recognizes retail sales in its stores when merchandise is sold and the customer takes possession of merchandise. Also included in net sales is revenue allocated to certain redeemed discounts earned via the Ollie’s Army loyalty program, revenue from Ollie’s co-branded credit card, and gift card breakage. Net sales are presented net of returns and sales tax. The Company provides an allowance for estimated retail merchandise returns based on prior experience.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is deferred for the Ollie’s Army loyalty program where members accumulate points that can be redeemed for discounts on future purchases. The Company has determined it has an additional performance obligation to Ollie’s Army members at the time of the initial transaction. The Company allocates the transaction price to the initial transaction and the discount awards based upon its relative standalone selling price, which considers historical redemption patterns for the award. Revenue is recognized as those discount awards are redeemed. Discount awards issued upon the achievement of specified point levels are subject to expiration. Unless temporarily extended, the maximum redemption period is 45 days. At the end of each fiscal period, unredeemed discount awards and accumulated points to earn a future discount award are reflected as a liability. Discount awards are combined in one homogeneous pool and are not separately identifiable. Therefore, the revenue recognized consists of discount awards redeemed that were included in the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of the period as well as discount awards issued during the current period. The following table is a reconciliation of the liability related to this program:

Index

Gift card breakage for gift card liabilities not subject to escheatment is recognized as revenue in proportion to the redemption of gift cards. Gift cards do not expire. The rate applied to redemptions is based upon a historical breakage rate. Gift cards are combined in one homogeneous pool and are not separately identifiable. Therefore, the revenue recognized consists of gift cards that were included in the liability at the beginning of the period as well as gift cards that were issued during the period. The following table is a reconciliation of the gift card liability:

Sales return allowance is recorded on a gross basis on the consolidated balance sheets as a refund liability and an asset for recovery. The allowance for estimated retail merchandise returns is based on prior experience. The following table provides a reconciliation of the activity related to the Company’s sales returns allowance:

In fiscal 2024, the Company launched a co-branded credit card that can be used by customers for making purchases at Ollie’s and everywhere else the co-branded credit card is accepted, and credit is extended to such customers by a third-party financial institution on a non-recourse basis to the Company. The co-branded credit card includes a performance obligation for the Company which includes marketing and promoting the program on behalf of the bank and the operation of the Company’s loyalty rewards program. Loyalty members earn points through purchases made using the card.

The third party reimburses the Company for certain credit card program costs such as advertising and loyalty points, which help promote the credit card program. The Company recognizes revenue when collectability is reasonably assured, under the assumption the amounts are not constrained and it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur in future periods, which is generally the time at which the actual usage of the credit cards or specified transaction occurs.

Under the program, the Company receives a percentage of the sales generated by Ollie’s co-branded credit card, in exchange for primary marketing functions. As a result, all amounts associated with the program are recognized within net sales on the consolidated statements of income. Additionally, the Company is entitled to certain bonuses based on performance of the program.

Index

Property and equipment consists of the following:

Depreciation and amortization expense of property and equipment was $55.2 million, $44.0 million, and $34.9 million in 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively, of which $41.0 million, $33.2 million, and $27.8 million is included in the depreciation and amortization expenses in 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively, on the consolidated statements of income. The remainder, as it relates to the Company’s distribution centers, is included within cost of sales on the consolidated statements of income.

The Company generally leases its stores, offices, and distribution facilities under operating leases that expire at various dates through 2038. These leases generally provide for fixed annual rentals; however, several provide for minimum annual rentals plus contingent rentals based on a percentage of annual sales. A majority of the Company’s leases also require a payment for all or a portion of common-area maintenance, insurance, real estate taxes, water and sewer costs, and repairs, on a fixed or variable payment basis. Most of the leases contain options to renew forthree tofive successive five-year periods. Many of the Company’s lease agreements provide options to extend the lease term beyond the initial non-cancelable period. At lease commencement, the Company generally includes only the initial term in the lease liability and right-of-use asset, as it has determined that renewal options are not reasonably certain to be exercised. Renewal decisions are generally at the Company’s sole discretion. Upon renewal of an expiring lease, the Company reassesses the terms and includes in the lease term any extension periods that are reasonably certain to be exercised. For leases acquired through bankruptcy proceedings, the Company typically includes option periods in the lease term, as the economic penalty associated with the acquisition cost makes renewal reasonably certain. The Company’s lease agreements generally do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

The Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at the inception of a contract. All of the Company’s leases are classified as operating leases and the associated assets and liabilities are presented as separate captions in the consolidated balance sheets. Operating lease assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and operating lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease.

Store and office lease costs are classified in SG&A and distribution center lease costs are classified in cost of sales on the consolidated statements of income.

Contingencies

From time to time the Company may be involved in claims and legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of its business. The Company cannot predict the outcome of any litigation or suit to which it is a party. However, the Company does not believe that an unfavorable decision of any of the current claims or legal actions against it, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, liquidity, or capital resources.

Accrued expenses consist of the following:

Long-term debt consists of finance leases.

The Company’s Credit Facility provides for afive-year $100.0 million revolving credit facility, which includes a $45.0 million sub-facility for letters of credit and a $25.0 million sub-facility for swingline loans (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). In addition, the Company may at any time add term loan facilities or additional revolving commitments up to $150.0 million pursuant to terms and conditions set out in the Credit Facility. On January 9, 2024, the Company refinanced its Credit Facility, pursuant to which the maturity date for any loans under the revolving credit facility was extended for a period offive years from the effective date of January 9, 2024 and a zero percent (0.0%) interest rate floor was added to the option for the SOFR Loan Rate (as defined in the Amendment). Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility mature on January 9, 2029.

As a result of the anticipated discontinuation of LIBOR in 2023, on January 24, 2023, the Company amended its Credit Facility to replace the LIBOR-based interest rates included therein with SOFR-based interest rates and to modify the provisions for determining an alternative rate of interest upon the occurrence of certain events relating to the availability of interest rate benchmarks. The interest rates for the Credit Facility are calculated as follows: for ABR Loans, the highest of the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus 0.50% and Term SOFR with a term ofone-month in effect on such day plus the SOFR Spread Adjustment plus 1.0%, plus the Applicable Margin, or, for SOFR Loans, the SOFR Loan Rate plus the Applicable Margin plus the SOFR Spread Adjustment. The Applicable Margin will vary from 0.00% to 0.50% for an ABR Loan and 1.00% to 1.50% for a SOFR Loan, based on availability under the Credit Facility. The SOFR Loan Rate is subject to a 0% floor.

Index

Under the terms of the Revolving Credit Facility, as of January 31, 2026, the Company could borrow up to 90.0% of the most recent appraised value (valued at cost, discounted for the current net orderly liquidation value) of its eligible inventory, as defined, up to $100.0 million.

As of January 31, 2026, the Company hadno outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, with $86.5 million of borrowing availability, outstanding letters of credit commitments of $13.3 million, and $0.2 million of rent reserves. The Revolving Credit Facility also contains a variable unused line fee ranging from 0.125% to 0.250% per annum. The Company incurred unused line fees of $0.1 million in each of the years ended 2025, 2024, and 2023.

The Credit Facility is collateralized by the Company’s assets and equity and contains a financial covenant, as well as certain business covenants, including restrictions on dividend payments, which the Company must comply with during the term of the agreement. The financial covenant is a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio test of at least 1.0 to 1.0 applicable during a covenant period, based on reference to availability. The Company was in compliance with all terms of the Credit Facility during 2025.

The provisions of the Credit Facility restrict all of the net assets of the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries, which constitutes all of the net assets on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of January 31, 2026, from being used to pay any dividends or make other restricted payments to the Company without prior written consent from the financial institutions that are a party to the Credit Facility, subject to material exceptions including proforma compliance with the applicable conditions described in the Credit Facility.

The components of the income tax provision (benefit) are as follows:

As further described in Note 1 “Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements,” the Company has elected to prospectively adopt the guidance in ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Taxes Disclosures,” or ASU 2023-09. The following table is a reconciliation of the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% to the Company’s effective income tax rate for the year ended January 31, 2026 in accordance with the guidance in ASU No. 2023-09:

The following table presents income taxes paid (net of refunds received) for the year ended January 31, 2026 (in thousands):

Index

Deferred income taxes reflect the effect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the carrying amounts used for income tax reporting purposes. Significant components of deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows:

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent on the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities (including the impact of available carryback and carryforward periods), projected future taxable income, and tax-planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income and the scheduled reversal of deferred liabilities over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences as of January 31, 2026 and February 1, 2025.

Ollie’s has no material accrual for uncertain tax positions or interest or penalties related to income taxes on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as of January 31, 2026 or February 1, 2025, and hasnot recognized any material uncertain tax positions or interest or penalties related to income taxes in the consolidated statements of income for 2025, 2024 or 2023.

On July 4, 2025, the U.S. federal government enacted the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” resulting in significant changes to the federal tax code, most notably the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and the restoration of favorable tax treatment for certain business provisions. The Company has evaluated and incorporated the effects of the legislation in its income tax provision for the fifty-two weeks ended January 31, 2026.

In connection with its initial public offering, the Company adopted the 2015 equity incentive plan (the “2015 Plan”) pursuant to which the Company’s Board of Directors may grant stock options, restricted shares or other awards to employees, directors and consultants. The 2015 Plan allowed for the issuance of up to 5,250,000 shares. Awards were made pursuant to agreements and are subject to vesting and other restrictions as determined by the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee of the Board. The Company uses authorized and unissued shares to satisfy share award exercises. After adoption of the 2025 Plan as described below, no additional equity grants were made under the 2015 Plan, although equity grants made under the 2015 Plan will continue to be governed by the 2015 Plan.

Index

As of June 12, 2025, upon stockholder approval of the same at the Company’s annual meeting, the Company adopted a new 2025 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2025 Plan”). Pursuant to the 2025 Plan, the Company’s Board of Directors may grant stock options, restricted shares, restricted stock units, or other awards to officers, directors, key employees, and professional service providers, pursuant to agreements and subject to vesting and other restrictions as determined by the Board of Directors.

As of January 31, 2026, there were 4,909,853 shares available for grant under the 2025 Plan.

Stock Options

The exercise price for stock options is determined at the fair value of the underlying stock on the date of grant. The vesting period for awards granted is generally set atfour years (25% ratably per year). Awards are subject to employment for vesting, expire 10 years from the date of grant, and are not transferable other than upon death.

A summary of the Company’s stock option activity and related information follows for 2023, 2024 and 2025:

The intrinsic value of stock options exercised for 2025, 2024 and 2023 was $16.3 million, $19.6 million and $5.8 million, respectively.

Index

The weighted average grant date fair value per option for options granted during 2025, 2024 and 2023 was $53.80, $39.27, and $29.07, respectively. The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model that used the weighted average assumptions in the following table:

To estimate the expected life of stock options, the Company uses its historical information to develop reasonable expectations about future exercise patterns and post-vesting employment termination behavior for its stock option grants. For expected volatility, the Company uses its historical information over the expected life of the option granted to calculate the fair value of option grants. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury notes with a term approximating the expected life of the option.

Restricted stock units (“RSUs”) are issued at the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. RSUs outstanding generally vest ratably over four years or cliff vest inone orfour years. Awards are subject to employment for vesting and are not transferable other than upon death.

Prior to the transition, the Company matched employee’s contributions up to 25% of the first 6% of their annual compensation and the portion that the Company matched vested ratably oversix years. The enhancements under the safe harbor plan also include 100% immediate vesting of the portion that the Company matches. The employer matching contributions to the Plan were $1.9 million, $1.6 million, and $0.4 million for 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

In addition to the regular matching contribution, the Company may elect to make a discretionary matching contribution.

The timing of repurchases and the actual amount purchased will depend on a variety of factors, including the market price of the Company’s shares, general market, economic and business conditions, and other corporate considerations.

U.S. Tariff Update

On February 20, 2026, the United States Supreme Court issued a ruling striking down certain tariffs previously imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”). The ultimate availability, timing, and amount of any potential refunds of such tariffs remain highly uncertain and are subject to further legal, regulatory, and administrative developments. Following the Supreme Court’s decision, the U.S. presidential administration announced its intention to invoke other laws to collect tariffs and announced new tariffs on imports from all countries, in addition to any existing non-IEEPA tariffs. There remains substantial uncertainty regarding the duration of existing and newly announced tariffs, potential changes or pauses to such tariffs, tariff levels, and whether further additional tariffs or other retaliatory actions may be imposed, modified, or suspended, and the impacts of such actions on the Company. The Company continues to monitor and evaluate these developments and assess their potential impact on its business, financial condition, and results of operations.
