The Company’s products are manufactured at its facilities in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The Company previously operated a manufacturing facility in Pretoria, South Africa; these operations ceased during thethird quarter of fiscal2025, and the related lease wasnot renewed. In* March 2025,the Company established a wholly owned subsidiary, Byrna Technologies Canada Inc., to support the distribution of Byrna products within the Canadian market. Byrna Canada doesnot* conduct manufacturing activities and doesnot operate any owned or leased facilities; instead, it utilizes a third‑party logistics provider to fulfill customer orders placed through the Company’s Canadian e‑commerce platform.
The Company operates and reports its results throughtwo reportable sales channels: Direct‑to‑Consumer (“DTC”) and Wholesale (dealer/distributors).
| 2. | OPERATIONS AND MANAGEMENT PLANS |
As of* May 31, 2026*, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $56.4 million. The Company has historically funded its operations primarily through the issuance of the Company's common stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Common Stock"). The Company also maintains access to additional liquidity through its revolving line of credit and delayed draw term loan facility, under which $5.0 million and $15.0 million, respectively, remained available as of* May 31, 2026 (see Note24,* Credit Facility). The Company generated a net loss of $9.3 million and used $3.0 million of cash in operations for thesix months ended* May 31, 2026*. The Company's future results will depend on its ability to continue generating sufficient revenue to fund operating expenses and to effectively market its products.
| 3. | BASIS OF PRESENTATION |
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for thethree andsix months ended* May 31, 2026and2025* include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form10-Q and therefore donot include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”); however, such information reflects all adjustments consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto together with management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations contained in the Company's annual report on Form10-K for the year ended* November 30, 2025*. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the results of its operations for thethree andsix months ended* May 31, 2026and2025*, and its cash flows for thesix months ended* May 31, 2026and May 31, 2025* arenot necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the prior-year financial statements have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform with the presentation in the current-year financial statements. These reclassifications hadno impact on previously reported net income, total assets, or cash flows.

| 4. | USE OF ESTIMATES |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty. Therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and any such differences* may*be material to our condensed consolidated financial statements. Significant estimates include assumptions about reserves for sales returns, allowances, and discounts, stock-based compensation expense, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, incremental borrowing rate on leases, useful life of long-lived assets, impairment of long-lived assets, allowance for estimated credit losses, and inventory reserves.
| 5. | RECENT ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE |
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs"). ASUsnot discussed below were assessed and determined to be eithernot applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on the financial statements.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Effective* December 1, 2025,the Company early adopted FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)2025‑05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic326*): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. The ASU provides a practical expedient that permits entities to assume that economic conditions existing as of the balance sheet date will remain unchanged when estimating expected credit losses on current trade receivables and contract assets. The Company elected this practical expedient and applied the guidance prospectively. The adoption of ASU2025‑05 didnot have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
Accounting Pronouncements Issued butNot Adopted
In2023, the FASB issued ASU2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This update standardizes categories for the effective tax rate reconciliation, requires disaggregation of income taxes and additional income tax-related disclosures. This update is required to be effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after* December 15, 2024,which for the Company will be the year ended November 30, 2026.While the Company anticipates that the adoption of this standard will require additional disclosures, it doesnot* expect it to have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
In* March 2024,the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU2024*-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive (Loss) Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (as clarified by ASU2025-01). This guidance focuses on the disaggregation of income statement expenses. This update requires entities to provide more detailed disclosures about the components of significant expense categories, enhancing the transparency and decision-usefulness of financial statements. The objective is to provide users with a clearer understanding of the nature and variability of expenses reported in the income statement. The standard is effective for annual periods of fiscal years beginning after* December 15, 2026,and interim periods in years beginning after December 15, 2027,with early adoption permitted. While the Company anticipates that the adoption of this standard will require additional disclosures, it doesnot* expect it to have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

| 6. | Goodwill |
Goodwill resulting from a business combination isnot amortized but is reviewed for impairment at least annually, or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of a reporting unit* maybe less than its carrying amount. The Company performs its annual goodwill impairment assessment during thefourth* quarter of each fiscal year.
During thethree months ended* May 31, 2026*, the Company identified the cessation of ammunition production at its Fort Wayne, Indiana facility as a triggering event requiring an interim assessment of goodwill for impairment. In accordance with ASC350-20-35-3A, the Company performed a qualitative assessment of relevant events and circumstances — including the nature and financial impact of the Fort Wayne cessation, the Company's overall financial performance, industry and market conditions, and other entity-specific factors — to determine whether it was more likely thannot that the fair value of the reporting unit was less than its carrying amount. Based on this qualitative assessment, the Company concluded that it wasnot more likely thannot that the fair value of the reporting unit was less than its carrying amount, and thereforeno quantitative impairment test was required andno impairment charge was recorded. As of* November 30, 2025*, the Company determined there wereno indicators of goodwill impairment.
| 7. | MARKETABLE DEBT SECURITIES |
Marketable debt securities consist of U.S. Treasury Securities and Corporate Bonds. Management determines the appropriate classification of these securities at the time they are acquired and evaluates the appropriateness of such classifications at each balance sheet date. The Company classifies its investments as available-for-sale pursuant to ASC320, Investments—Debt Securities. Investments are recorded at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in stockholders’ equity and a component of total comprehensive (loss) income in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income, until realized. Realized gains and losses are included in investment income on a specific-identification basis. The Company estimates expected credit losses for investments when unrealized losses exist. Unrealized losses that are credit related are recognized in net (loss) income and unrealized losses that arenot credit related are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss. For thethree andsix months ended* May 31, 2026and2025*, both unrealized and realized gains on marketable debt securities was immaterial.
The following table summarizes our marketable securities and available-for-sale investments as of* May 31, 2026* (in thousands):

Fair Value Measurement
The Company follows a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to settle a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, athree-tier fair value hierarchy has been established, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level1- Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
Level2- Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level1) are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life.
Level3- Inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model.
The following table summarizes the fair value of marketable debt securities by level within the fair value hierarchy as of* May 31, 2026*:
| Fair Value Measurement Based on | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

| 8. | TRANSACTIONS WITH BYRNA LATAM |
On* August 19, 2024,the Company entered into an exclusive distribution, manufacturing and licensing agreement with Byrna LATAM (the "LATAM Licensing Agreement"). This LATAM Licensing Agreement allows Byrna LATAM to exclusively manufacture the Byrna SD launcher and ammunition in certain South American countries and requires Byrna LATAM to pay the Company a royalty on Byrna products manufactured. The amount of royalty earned during thethree* andsix months ended* May 31, 2026* was less than $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, and royalties receivable outstanding as of* May 31, 2026* totaled $0.8 million, net of allowance for expected credit losses, and are included in accounts receivable. The amount of royalty earned during thethree andsix months ended* May 31, 2025was $0.8 million. The amount outstanding as of November 30, 2025* was $1.1 million.
In* January 2023and as amended from time to time, the Company loaned $1.6 million to Byrna LATAM. The loan bears interest at a fixed annual rate of 5% per annum. In April 2026,the Company and Byrna LATAM entered into athird* amendment to the loan agreement, pursuant to which accrued interest of less than $0.1 million from the period between the last scheduled payment date under the prior repayment schedule and the effective date of thethird amendment (the "stub period") was capitalized into the outstanding principal balance of approximately $0.6 million, resulting in a restated principal balance of approximately $0.6 million. The amended agreement provides for repayment of the restated principal balance, together with interest at 5%, inthirteen equal monthly installments commencing* April 20, 2026and concluding April 20, 2027.Interest income related to the loan receivable was less than $0.1 million for thethree* andsix months ended* May 31, 2026*, and is included in interest income in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income. The loan receivable of $0.7 million and $1.1 million was recorded in Prepaid expenses and other current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of* May 31, 2026* and* November 30, 2025*, respectively. Subsequent to* May 31, 2026*, the Company and Byrna LATAM entered into afourth amendment to the loan agreement; see Note25, Subsequent Events.
| 9. | ADVERTISING COSTS |
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and reported in Operating Expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income, and include costs of advertising, tradeshows, and other activities designed to enhance demand for the Company's products. The Company recorded advertising costs of approximately $5.0 million and $10.3 million for thethree andsix months ended* May 31, 2026*, respectively. The Company recorded advertising costs of approximately $3.8 million and $7.9 million for thethree andsix months ended* May 31, 2025*, respectively.
| 10. | REVENUE, DEFERRED REVENUE AND ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE |
Product Sales
The Company generates revenue through e-commerce portals to consumers, as well as wholesale distribution of its products and accessories to dealers, distributors, retail stores and large end-users such as private security companies and law enforcement agencies. The Company doesnot manufacture or sell any products regulated by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives or for military applications. Revenue is recognized upon the transfer of control of goods to the customer, which occurs when the Company has satisfied its performance obligation by making the goods available to the customer’s designated carrier in accordance with the Company’s shipping terms. Under these terms, which are Ex-Works (EXW), title and risk of loss pass to the customer once the goods are picked, packed, and loaded into the carrier’s trailer at the Company’s facility and the order is marked as shipped in the Company’s ERP system. At that point, the Company has a present right to payment, the customer has obtained legal title, and the carrier—acting as the customer’s agent—has physical possession of the goods. Accordingly, revenue is recognized as of the date goods are loaded into the carrier’s trailer, regardless of when the carrier physically removes the trailer from the Company’s premises. Payment terms to customers other than e-commerce customers are generally30-60 days for established customers. New wholesale and large end-user customers typically prepay for their initial order. Revenue is recognized net of estimated returns, discounts, and allowances. Products purchased include a standardone-year assurance-type warranty that cannot be purchased separately. This warranty allows customers to return defective products for repair or replacement withinone year of sale. The Company also sells an extended three-year warranty that* maybe purchased separately and is accounted for as a service-type warranty. Because thefirst* year of warranty coverage is included and non-separable from all launcher purchases, the extendedthree-year warranty represents a service obligation during thesecond andthird years after sale. Amounts billed for extended warranties are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized on a straight-line basis during the coverage period. The Company maintains a reserve for expected warranty claims based on historical experience, and current conditions.
11
During thesecond quarter of2025, the Company offered a complimentary five-year extended warranty with any launcher purchased during* May 2025.The Company determined the standalone selling price of thefive*-year warranty and, in accordance with ASC606, allocated a portion of the transaction price to this separate performance obligation using the relative standalone selling price method. The allocated amount is recorded as deferred revenue and is recognized on a straight-line basis over thefive-year coverage period. Revenue related to both thethree-year andfive-year extended warranties was immaterial for thethree andsix months ended* May 31, 2026and2025* .
The Company offers e-commerce customers a14-day money-back guarantee, which allows for a full refund of the purchase price, excluding shipping charges, within14 days from the date of delivery. The right of return creates a variable component to the transaction price. The Company estimates returns using the expected value method, as a range of potential outcomes* mayexist. Returns under the14*-day money back guarantee for thethree months ended* May 31, 2026* was immaterial. For purchases made through Amazon, certain Byrna products-including launchers, CO₂ tubes, chemical irritant projectiles, and pepper sprays are designated as non-returnable. Other accessories are subject to Amazon’s standard30-day return policy. The Company estimates expected Amazon returns using the same expected value method applied to its direct-to-consumer sales. Expected Amazon-related return reserves for thethree andsix months ended* May 31, 2026and2025* was immaterial.
The Company sells to dealers and retailers for whom there isno money-back guarantee but* mayrequest a return or credit for unforeseen reasons or mayhave agreed-upon discounts marketing allowances, cooperative advertising programs, or other promotional incentives to be netted from amounts invoiced. The Company reserves for returns, discounts marketing programs, and allowances based on past performance, contractual terms and expectations of future activity and reports revenue net of the estimated reserve. The Company's reserve for returns, discounts, marketing programs and allowances for thethree* andsix months ended* May 31, 2026* was $0.1 million and less than $0.1 million, respectively. The Company's reserve for returns, discounts, and allowances for thethree andsix months ended* May 31, 2025* was immaterial.
Shipping and handling activities related to contracts with customers are accounted for as costs to fulfill the performance obligation. Shipping and handling costs associated with the distribution of finished products to customers, are recorded in operating expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income and are recognized when the product is shipped.
Included as cost of goods sold are expenses associated with the production and procurement of products, such as labor and overhead, inbound freight costs, manufacturing depreciation, purchasing and receiving costs, and inspection costs.
Royalty Revenue
The Company recognizes royalty revenue associated with the LATAM Licensing Agreement.
Royalty revenue is recognized in accordance with ASC606. Sales based royalties related to licenses of functional intellectual property are recognized when the licensed products are manufactured, provided the amount is fixed or determinable and collection is probable. Accordingly, the Company recognizes royalty revenue when (i) the licensee’s manufacturing activity occurs, (ii) the royalty amount is fixed or determinable under the agreement, and (iii) collection is probable.
During thethree andsix months ended* May 31, 2026,*the Company recorded a net reversal of previously accrued royalty revenue of $0.3 million. This adjustment resulted from revised reporting received from LATAM related to its royalty obligations. The Company reviewed and reconciled these reports on a month-by-month basis dating back to the inception of the arrangement, resulting in the reversal. This reconciliation reflected updated production and sales information provided by LATAM, which differed from amounts previously reported and used as the basis for the Company's royalty accrual estimates. As a result, the Company determined that royalty revenue had been over-accrued in prior periods and recorded a corresponding reversal during the current period. The Company will continue to monitor royalty accruals as additional information from LATAM becomes available and will true-up such accruals as necessary in future periods.
Accounts Receivable
The Company records accounts receivables due from dealers/distributors, large end-users such as retail stores, security companies, and law enforcement agencies. Accounts receivable, net of allowances, was $4.4 million, $10.8 million and $2.6 million as of* May 31, 2026*,* November 30, 2025*, and* November 30, 2024*, respectively. Accounts receivable also includes royalty receivables. The amount of royalty receivable included in accounts receivable was $0.8 million, $1.1 million, andnot material as of* May 31, 2026*,* November 30, 2025*, and* November 30, 2024*, respectively.
Allowance for Expected Credit Losses
The Company maintains an allowance for current expected credit losses on trade receivables. Effective* December 1, 2025,the Company early adopted ASU2025‑05* and applied the guidance prospectively. In connection with the adoption, the Company elected the practical expedient that allows entities to assume that economic conditions existing as of the balance sheet date will remain unchanged when estimating expected credit losses on current trade receivables. Under this approach, the Company estimates expected credit losses based on relevant customer‑specific credit risk information and collection patterns without incorporating forward‑looking economic forecasts for these short‑term receivables. Prior to adoption, the Company estimated its allowance for credit losses by considering historical collectability based on past due status, the creditworthiness of customers based on ongoing credit evaluations, current market conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions. Account balances are written off against the allowance when it is determined that the receivable willnot be recovered.
As of* May 31, 2026*,* November 30, 2025*, and* November 30, 2024*, the total allowance for expected credit losses recorded was $0.3 million, $0.1 million, and $0.3 million, respectively.
12
Deferred Revenue
The balance of deferred revenue, which relate to advance payments, unfulfilled e-commerce orders and amounts to be recognized under extendedthree-year,five-year, service warranty, was $0.4 million, $0.5 million, and $1.8 million as of* May 31, 2026*,* November 30, 2025*,* November 30, 2024*, respectively.
Changes in deferred revenue for thethree months ended* May 31, 2026* and* November 30, 2025* are summarized below (in thousands). The Company recognized warranty revenue totaling less than $0.1 million during each of thethree andsix months ended* May 31, 2026and2025*.

| 11. | INVENTORY |
Inventory consists of raw materials, work-in-process, and finished goods, and is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Costs included in inventory consist of materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead. The Company imports certain items that are subject to customs duties and tariffs. Import duties and tariffs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of inventory are capitalized as part of the cost of inventory and are subsequently recognized in cost of goods sold as the related inventory is sold. From time to time, the Company* maybecome entitled to refunds of previously paid tariffs as a result of governmental actions, legal proceedings, administrative rulings, or approved refund claims. Consistent with ASC450*-30, Gain Contingencies, the Company doesnot recognize a tariff refund until the gain is realized or realizable — generally upon receipt of funds, or when a refund claim has been approved and quantified by the applicable governmental authority such that realization is assured. Amounts recognized are recorded as a reduction of the carrying value of inventory to the extent the related inventory remains on hand, or as a reduction of cost of goods sold to the extent the related inventory has already been sold.
During thesix months ended* May 31, 2026,the Company received refunds of previously paid tariffs of approximately $1.1 million in cash, which were recorded as a reduction of cost of goods sold in the period received, as the related inventory had already been sold. Subsequent to May 31, 2026,the Company received an additional tariff refund of approximately $2.3 million (see Note25,* Subsequent Events).
Potential tariff refunds that remain contingent upon future events, unresolved legal or administrative proceedings, or pending governmental approval arenot recognized until the applicable recognition criteria have been met. The Company evaluates outstanding refund claims each reporting period and provides disclosure of significant contingencies and subsequent developments, as appropriate.
The Company periodically reviews its inventory for excess, slow-moving, and obsolete items and records a reserve when the carrying value of inventory exceeds its estimated net realizable value. During thethree andsix months ended* May 31, 2026,the Company recorded inventory write-downs and reserves totaling $5.9 million, which are included in cost of goods sold in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income. Of this amount, $3.6 million related to the write-down of raw materials, work-in-process, and finished goods inventory associated with the cessation of ammunition production operations at the Company's Fort Wayne, Indiana facility (see Note12,* Property and Equipment), as such inventory was determined to have limited orno recoverable value following the decision to cease production.
The majority of the remaining $2.2 million related to launcher components that due to a strategic decision, will eithernot be reworked and therefore scrapped or for which expected future demand and marketability had declined, resulting in an incremental reserve to reduce the carrying value of such inventory to its estimated net realizable value. The remaining reserve balance was due to the Company's review of inventory aging, turnover rates, and updated demand forecasts, conducted in connection with an evaluation of product line strategy and sales priorities undertaken during the quarter.

During thesecond fiscal quarter of2026, the Company committed to a plan to permanently cease in-house ammunition production operations at its Fort Wayne, Indiana facility. Going forward, ammunition will be sourced from athird-party contract manufacturer. In connection with this decision, the Company performed an impairment assessment of the long-lived assets associated with the ammunition production function under ASC360, Property, Plant, and Equipment.
The ammunition production machinery, equipment, and production-specific leasehold improvements were determined to constitute an abandoned asset group, as these assets haveno alternative use within the Company's remaining operations. The fair value of the production equipment was determined to approximate zero, as expected scrap and salvage proceeds werenot material after considering costs to dismantle and remove the equipment. Accordingly, the Company recognized a total impairment loss of approximately $3.5 million during thethree months ended* May 31, 2026,*comprised of $3.5 million related to the write-off of ammunition production machinery and equipment and less than $0.1 million related to the write-off of production-specific leasehold improvements. The impairment loss is included in cost of goods sold in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income.
In addition, during thethree andsix months ended* May 31, 2026*, the Company wrote off approximately $1.0 million of deposits for equipment associated with the Fort Wayne ammunition production facility. These assets hadnot yet been placed in service at the time the decision to cease production was made and therefore haveno recoverable value. The write-off is reflected in operating expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income.
At* May 31, 2026* and* November 30, 2025*, the Company had deposits of $0.5 million and $1.5 million, respectively, with vendors primarily for supply of machinery (molds) and equipment where the vendors havenot completed the supply of these assets and is presented as Deposits for equipment in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Stock Buyback Program
On* July 31, 2024,the Company's Board of Directors approved a plan to buy back up to $10 million worth of shares of Common Stock (the “Stock Buyback Program”). The Company's Stock Buyback Plan is intended to return capital to shareholders and to minimize the dilutive impact of stock options and other share-based awards. The Stock Buyback Program will expire on the sooner of thetwo*-year anniversary of its initiation or until the Company reaches the aggregate limit of $10 million for the repurchases under the program. The repurchased shares are recorded as part of treasury stock and are accounted for under the cost method. In thesix months ended* May 31, 2026*, the Company repurchased 58,905 shares of common stock for $1.0 million. No shares were repurchased during thethree months ended* May 31, 2026*. As of* May 31, 2026*,0.5 million shares of common stock have been repurchased for $5.8 million.

2020 Plan
In2020, the Board and the stockholders approved the Byrna Technologies Inc.2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the*“2020* Plan”). The aggregate number of shares of common stock available for issuance in connection with options and other awards granted under the2020 Plan is 2,500,000. In2022, the Company’s Board of Directors and the Company's stockholders approved the increase of the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the2020 Plan by 1,300,000 shares to a total of 3,800,000 shares. The2020 Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board. The Compensation Committee determines the persons to whom options to purchase shares of common stock, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock units (“RSUs”), and restricted or unrestricted shares of common stock* maybe granted. Persons eligible to receive awards under the2020* Plan are employees, officers, directors, consultants, advisors and other individual service providers of the Company. Awards are at the discretion of the Compensation Committee.
The Company accounts for all stock-based payment awards granted to employees and non-employees as stock-based compensation expense at their grant date fair value. The Company’s stock-based payments include stock options, RSUs, and incentive warrants. The measurement date for employee awards is the date of grant, and stock-based compensation costs are recognized as expense over the employees’ requisite service period, on a straight-line basis. The measurement date for non-employee awards is generally the date the services were completed, resulting in financial reporting period adjustments to stock-based compensation during either the expected term or the contractual term. Stock-based compensation costs for non-employees are recognized as expense over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. Forfeitures are accounted for as they occur.
The fair value of each grant is estimated on the date of grant by using either the Black-Scholes, Binomial Lattice, or the quoted stock price on the date of grant, unless the awards are subject to market conditions in which case the Company uses the Monte Carlo simulation model. Due to the Company’s limited history, the expected term of the Company’s stock options granted to employees has been determined utilizing the method as prescribed by the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin, Topic14. The risk-free interest rate is determined by reference to the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant of the award for time periods approximately equal to the expected term of the award. Expected dividend yield is based on the fact that the Company has never paid cash dividends on Common Stock and doesnot expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
Stock-Based Compensation Expense
Stock-based compensation costs are recognized as expense over the employee's requisite service period, on a straight-line basis. Total stock-based compensation expense was $0.8 million and $0.7 million for thethree months ended* May 31, 2026and2025*, respectively, and $1.4 million and $1.6 million for thesix months ended* May 31, 2026and2025*, respectively. Total stock-based compensation expense was recorded in Operating expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income.
Restricted Stock Units
During thethree andsix months ended* May 31, 2026*, the Company granted performance-based restricted stock units ("PSUs") to certain employees. The number of PSUs that* mayultimately vest is contingent upon the achievement of specified GAAP revenue targets for the fiscal year2027* performance period (* December 1, 2026through November 30, 2027),as well as the participant's continued employment through November 30, 2028.The actual number of shares that maybe earned ranges from 0% to 200% of the target award, depending on the level of achievement of the performance goals. Any earned PSUs will vest on November 30, 2028,subject to continued service through such date. Compensation expense is recognized for PSUs only to the extent that it is probable the performance conditions will be achieved. During thethree* andsix months ended* May 31, 2026* the Company granted 362,361 RSUs consisting of 230,064 time-based RSUs and 132,297 performance-based RSUs. Stock-based compensation expense for the RSUs for thethree andsix months ended* May 31, 2026*was $0.8 million and $1.2 million, respectively.
In connection with the appointment of the Company's Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") effective* March 2, 2026,the Company also granted a separate new-hire performance-based equity award consisting of PSUs with a grant-date value of $250,000. This award vests in full, if at all, on thetwo-year anniversary of the grant date, subject to the achievement of a market-based performance condition requiring that the volume-weighted average price ("VWAP") of the Company's common stock over the final90* days of thetwo-year performance period equals or exceeds 156% of the closing stock price on the grant date, and subject to the CEO's continued employment through the vesting date. If the market condition isnot satisfied on the vesting date, the award will be forfeited in its entirety withno partial vesting. Because this award is subject to a market condition, compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period regardless of whether the market condition is ultimately achieved.
In connection with the promotion of the Company's President effective* March 17, 2026,the Company granted a promotion retention equity award consisting of 20,810 RSUs in the aggregate, comprised of 10,405 time-based RSUs and 10,405 PSUs. The PSU portion of this award cliff vests on theone-year anniversary of the grant date, subject to the achievement of a market-based performance condition requiring that the VWAP of the Company's common stock over the final90* days of theone-year performance period equals or exceeds 125% of the closing stock price on* March 16, 2026,and subject to the President's continued employment through the vesting date. If the performance condition isnot* satisfied on the vesting date, the PSUs will be forfeited in their entirety withno partial vesting. Because this award is subject to a market condition, compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period regardless of whether the market condition is ultimately achieved. Subsequent to* May 31, 2026,these awards vested in full upon Mr. Pham's separation from the Company; see Note25,* Subsequent Events.
The grant-date fair value of PSU awards subject to market conditions was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model, as the market-based vesting conditions preclude the use of a standard option pricing model. The Monte Carlo simulation estimates the probability of satisfying the market condition by simulating future stock price paths using Geometric Brownian Motion over the requisite performance period. For the CEO new-hire PSU award granted* March 2, 2026,*the following assumptions were used: a grant-date stock price of $12.89, a VWAP threshold of 156% of the grant-date stock price, a performance period of 2.0 years, a risk-free interest rate of 3.44%, expected volatility of 80.0%, and an expected dividend yield of 0.0%, resulting in a grant-date fair value of approximately $7.69 per unit. Expected volatility was based on the Company's historical equity volatility over a lookback period commensurate with the remaining term to the vesting date. The risk-free interest rate was based on the interpolated continuous U.S. Treasury yield commensurate with the remaining term to the vesting date as of the grant date. The Company doesnot currently pay dividends and doesnot anticipate paying dividends during the performance period.

As of* May 31, 2026*, there was $4.2 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation cost related to unvested RSUs which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average of 1.4 years.
The weighted average grant-date fair value of PSUs and RSUs granted during thethree andsix months ended* May 31, 2026*was $10.09 and $7.30 per unit, respectively.
The following table summarizes the RSU activity during thesix months ended* May 31, 2026*:

For thethree andsix months ended* May 31, 2026*, the Company recorded a net loss and, as such, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share, as the inclusion of any potentially dilutive securities would be antidilutive. Stock options, RSUs, and PSUs that could potentially dilute basic earnings per share ("EPS") in the future were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share because their effect would be antidilutive. For thethree andsix months ended* May 31, 2025,the Company recorded net income and, as such, used diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding when calculating diluted income per share for thethree* andsix months ended* May 31, 2025.*Stock options and RSUs that could potentially dilute basic earnings per share (“EPS”) in the future are included in the computation of diluted income per share.

Legal Proceedings
In the ordinary course of our business, the Company* maybe involved in various legal actions and claims, including butnot* limited to product liability, consumer, commercial, tax, and governmental matters, which* mayarise from time to time. Currently, the Company is engaged in a number of legal proceedings; however, in the opinion of management, there wasnot* at least a reasonable possibility the Company* mayhave incurred a material loss concerning loss contingencies for asserted legal and other claims. While the Company doesnot* anticipate any adverse outcomes from these proceedings, legal actions inherently carry uncertainties, and an unfavorable ruling could result in monetary damages that* mayimpact the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. Although the Company maintains specific insurance coverage for certain risks, it may*still face judgments or need to settle claims in the future that could have potential material adverse effects on its business, financial condition, or results of operations.

| 23. | FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS |
The Company is exposed to risks that arise from its use of financial instruments. This note describes the Company’s objectives, policies and processes for managing those risks and the methods used to measure them.
| i) | Currency Risk |
The Company held cash balances with banks in the United States denominated in U.S. dollars and with banks in South Africa denominated in U.S. dollars and South African rand, and with banks in Canada denominated in Canadian dollars. The South African rand and the Canadian dollar* may*fluctuate against the U.S. dollar based on changes in economic conditions.
During thesix months ended* May 31, 2026*, in comparison to the prior year period, the U.S. dollar on average was stronger in relation to the South African rand, and upon the translation of the Company’s subsidiaries’ assets, liabilities, and certain operating expenses denominated in South African rand. The Company recorded a translation adjustment gain of approximately $0.2 million and a translation adjustment loss of $0.1 million related to the South African rand during thesix months ended* May 31, 2026and2025*, respectively. The translation adjustment related to the Company’s Canadian subsidiary, which was established in2025, was immaterial for the period.
The Company’s South African subsidiary incurs operating costs denominated in South African rand. Consequently, fluctuations in the U.S. dollar exchange rate against the South African rand increases the volatility of sales, cost of goods sold and operating costs and overall net earnings when translated into U.S. dollars. The Company isnot using any forward or option contracts to fix the foreign exchange rates. Using a 10% fluctuation in the U.S. exchange rate, the impact on the (loss) income and stockholders’ equity isnot material.
The Company’s Canadian subsidiary’s revenues, cost of goods sold, operating costs, and capital expenditures are denominated in Canadian dollars. Consequently, fluctuations in the U.S. dollar exchange rate against the Canadian dollar* mayincrease the volatility of reported sales, cost of goods sold, operating costs, and net earnings when translated into U.S. dollars. The Company doesnot* currently use forward contracts, options, or other derivative instruments to manage foreign‑currency exchange risk. Management believes that the impact of reasonably possible changes in foreign‑currency exchange rates on the Company’s loss and stockholders’ equity isnot material.
| ii) | Credit Risk |
Credit risk is the risk thatone party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. The financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents, marketable debt securities, accounts receivable, and the loan receivable from Byrna LATAM. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality financial institutions located in the US, Canada, and South Africa. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents balances along with marketable securities with financial institutions in the US in excess of amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
The Company provides credit to its customers in the normal course of its operations. It carries out, on a continuing basis, credit checks on its customers. As of* May 31, 2026*, four of the Company's customers accounted for approximately 54% of total accounts receivable. As of* November 30, 2025,*two of the Company's customers accounted for approximately 47% of total accounts receivable.
The Company loaned $1.6 million to Byrna LATAM in* January 2023 (see Note8*). The Company determines if an estimate for a credit loss on this loan is needed by considering the financial position of Byrna LATAM, the current economic environment, and collections on our accounts receivable balances with Byrna LATAM to support the payment of this loan. The Company reviews these factors quarterly to determine if any adjustments are needed.
The Company’s marketable debt securities consist of U.S. Treasury Securities. The Company’s investment policy limits the amounts the Company* mayinvest in anyone* type of investment and requires all investments held by the Company to be at least AA-/Aa3 rated, thereby reducing credit risk exposure.

In connection with the Credit Agreement, the Company incurred debt issuance costs, which were immaterial to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Fourth Amendment to Byrna LATAM Loan Agreement
On* June 23, 2026,the Company and Byrna LATAM S.A. ("Byrna LATAM") entered into afourth* amendment (the "Fourth Amendment") to the loan agreement originally dated* January 10, 2023,as previously amended. The Fourth Amendment supersedes the priorthird* amendment in its entirety. Pursuant to the Fourth Amendment, accrued interest of approximately $0.1 million was capitalized into the outstanding principal balance, resulting in a restated principal balance of approximately $0.7 million. The Fourth Amendment provides for repayment of the restated principal balance, together with interest at a fixed annual rate of 5% per annum, infourteen equal monthly installments of approximately $52,751 commencing* May 20, 2026and concluding June 20, 2027.*

In accordance with the terms of Mr. Pham's new-hire restricted stock unit award agreements dated March 17, 2026,the termination of Mr. Pham's employment without Cause withintwelve* months of the grant date resulted in the full acceleration of all 20,810 restricted stock units comprising his new-hire retention award (10,405 time-based and 10,405 performance-based restricted stock units), with all vesting conditions, including the market-based performance condition, deemed satisfied as of the Separation Date.
