- Organization and Description of Business
Fortress Biotech, Inc. (“Fortress” or the “Company”) is a biopharmaceutical company focused on acquiring and advancing assets to enhance long-term value for shareholders through product revenue, equity holding and dividend and royalty revenue streams. Fortress works in concert with its extensive network of key opinion leaders to identify and evaluate promising products and product candidates for potential acquisition. The Company has executed arrangements in partnership with some of the world’s foremost universities, research institutes and pharmaceutical companies, including City of Hope National Medical Center, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Nationwide Children’s Hospital, Columbia University, the University of Pennsylvania, AstraZeneca plc, Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories, Ltd., and Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Limited (“Sun Pharma”).
Following the exclusive license or other acquisition of the intellectual property underpinning a product or product candidate, Fortress leverages its business, scientific, regulatory, legal and financial expertise to help its subsidiaries and partner companies achieve their goals. Partner and subsidiary companies then assess a broad range of strategic arrangements to accelerate and provide additional funding to support research and development, including joint ventures, partnerships, out-licensings, sales transactions, and public and private financings. To date, three partner companies are publicly-traded, andfour subsidiaries have consummated strategic partnerships with industry leaders, including AstraZeneca plc as successor-in-interest to Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“AstraZeneca”), Sentynl Therapeutics, Inc. (“Sentynl”), and Sun Pharma.
Our subsidiary and partner companies that are pursuing development and/or commercialization of biopharmaceutical products and product candidates are: Journey Medical Corporation (Nasdaq: DERM, “Journey” or “JMC”), Mustang Bio, Inc. (Nasdaq: MBIO, “Mustang”), Avenue Therapeutics, Inc. (OTC: ATXI, “Avenue”), Baergic Bio, Inc. (“Baergic,” a subsidiary of Avenue), Cellvation, Inc. (“Cellvation”), Cyprium Therapeutics, Inc. (“Cyprium”), Helocyte, Inc. (“Helocyte”), Oncogenuity, Inc. (“Oncogenuity”) and Urica Therapeutics, Inc. (“Urica”). Checkpoint Therapeutics, Inc. (“Checkpoint”), previously a partner company, was acquired by Sun Pharma in May 2025.
As used throughout this filing, the words “we”, “us” and “our” may refer to Fortress individually, to one or more of its subsidiaries and/or partner companies, or to all such entities as a group, as dictated by context. Generally, “subsidiary” refers to a private Fortress subsidiary, “partner company” refers to a public Fortress subsidiary, and “partner” refers to an entity with whom one of the foregoing parties has a significant business relationship, such as an exclusive license or an ongoing product-related payment obligation. The context in which any such term is used throughout this document, however, may dictate a different construal from the foregoing.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Since inception, the Company’s operations have been financed primarily through the sale of equity and debt securities, from the sale of subsidiaries/partner companies, and the proceeds from the exercise of warrants. The Company has incurred losses from operations and negative cash flows from operating activities since inception and expects to continue to incur losses from operations for the next several years as it continues to develop and commercialize its existing and new product candidates. The Company is also required to comply with the financial covenants in its loan agreements as described in Note 9. Current cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2025 of $38.1 million for Fortress and private subsidiaries primarily funded by Fortress (“Parent Entity”) are considered sufficient to fund the Parent Entity’s operations for at least 12 months following the date of filing of this Quarterly Report on 10-Q. However, the Company will need to raise additional funding through strategic relationships, public or private equity or debt financings, sale of partner companies, grants or other arrangements to develop and prepare regulatory filings and obtain regulatory approvals for the existing and new product candidates, fund operating losses, and, if deemed appropriate, establish or secure through third parties manufacturing for the potential products, sales and marketing capabilities. If such funding is not available or not available on terms acceptable to the Company, the Company’s current development plans and plans for expansion of its general and administrative infrastructure may be curtailed. Fortress also has the ability, subject to limitations imposed by Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 and other applicable laws and regulations, to raise money from the sale of common stock of the public companies in which it has ownership positions.
- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair statement of the balances and results for the periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statement results are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year or any future period.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared with the presumption that users of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have read or have access to the audited financial statements for the preceding fiscal year for each of Avenue, Checkpoint, Mustang and Journey. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 31, 2025 (the “2024 Form 10-K”), from which the Company derived the balance sheet data at December 31, 2024, as well as Checkpoint’s Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 28, 2025, Mustang’s Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 28, 2025, Avenue’s Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 31, 2025, and Journey’s Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 27, 2025.
The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the results of the Company’s subsidiaries for which it has voting control but does not own 100% of the outstanding equity of the subsidiaries. For consolidated entities where the Company owns less than 100% of the subsidiary, but retains voting control, the Company records net loss attributable to non-controlling interests in its consolidated statements of operations and presents non-controlling interests as a component of stockholders’ equity on its consolidated balance sheets. All intercompany income and/or expense items are eliminated entirely in consolidation prior to the allocation of net gain/loss attributable to non-controlling interest, which is based on ownership interests as calculated quarterly for each subsidiary.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the Company’s unaudited condensed 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 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. The Company’s significant estimates include, but are not limited to provisions for coupons, chargebacks, wholesaler fees, specialty pharmacy discounts, managed care rebates, product returns, inventory realization, valuation of intangible assets, useful lives assigned to long-lived assets and amortizable intangible assets, fair value of stock options and warrants, stock-based compensation, common stock issued to acquire licenses, accrued expenses and contingencies. Due to the uncertainty inherent in such estimates, actual results may differ from these estimates.
Segment Reporting
The Company views its operations and manages its business in segments that align with the Company’s public subsidiaries with Fortress being comprised of the parent entity and the private subsidiaries, including intersegment revenue consisting of various fees paid by the subsidiaries to Fortress that are eliminated in consolidation. Each public subsidiary is a biopharmaceutical company focused on acquiring, developing, and commercializing assets in different therapeutic and disease areas. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is its chief executive officer.
The CODM reviews profit and loss information for each segment to assess the performance of the Company and each of its public subsidiaries. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in this Note 2. See Note 16 for segment information.
Restricted Cash
The Company records cash held in trust or pledged to secure certain debt obligations as restricted cash. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had $1.2 million of restricted cash representing pledges to secure letters of credit in connection with certain office leases. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had $1.6 million of restricted cash representing pledges to secure letters of credit in connection with certain office leases and an undertaking posted by Cyprium to secure potential damages in an injunctive proceeding.
The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash from the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets to the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows as of the dates presented:
| · · · · · · | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| · · June 30, | ||||
| | | 2025 | | 2024 |
| Cash and cash equivalents | $74,386 | $76,201 | ||

| Total cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash | | $75,606 | | $78,264 |
Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies to those previously disclosed in the 2024 Form 10-K.

- Asset Purchase and Merger Agreements
Checkpoint
On March 9, 2025, Checkpoint entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Sun Pharmaceutical Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Sun Pharma” or “Parent”), and Snoopy Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”). The Merger Agreement provided that, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Parent, Merger Sub and Checkpoint would effect a merger of Merger Sub with and into Checkpoint (the “Merger”), with Checkpoint continuing as the surviving corporation of the Merger and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.
On April 23, 2025, Checkpoint filed a definitive proxy statement relating to the Merger Agreement and established May 28, 2025 as the date for a special meeting of Checkpoint stockholders to vote on the Merger. Following the approval of the Merger by requisite majorities of holders of Checkpoint shares at the special meeting, the transaction closed on May 30, 2025. As a result of the Merger, the Company deconsolidated Checkpoint as of May 2025. The Company received $25.1 million in cash proceeds from the sale in June 2025, and an additional $2.9 million in cash proceeds in July 2025 (see Note 19). After the effect of the deconsolidation of Checkpoint’s net liabilities of $10.8 million and non-controlling interests of $9.9 million, the Company recorded a $27.1 million gain on deconsolidation of Checkpoint in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 (see Note 16). The Company considers the sale of Checkpoint to be consistent with its ongoing strategy to opportunistically monetize investments in biopharma companies and assets, and therefore concluded that the sale did not represent a strategic shift that would be accounted for as a discontinued operation.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each share of common stock and each share of Class A common stock of Checkpoint (collectively, the “Shares”) (including each unvested Checkpoint restricted share) outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was canceled and ceased to exist and was converted into the right to receive (i) $4.10 in cash, without interest (the “Common Cash Amount”), and (ii) one non-tradable contingent value right (a “CVR”), which represents the right to receive a contingent cash payment of up to $0.70 upon the achievement of specified milestones, subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in a Contingent Value Rights Agreement that was entered into at the Effective Time (the “CVR Agreement”), as further described below (the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the “Merger Consideration”), in each case subject to applicable withholding taxes.
CVR Agreement
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Parent and a rights agent (the “Rights Agent”) entered into the CVR Agreement governing the terms of the CVRs issued in connection with the Merger. The Rights Agent will maintain an up-to-date register of the holders of CVRs (the “Holders”). Holders shall not be permitted to transfer the CVRs (subject to certain limited exceptions as set forth in the CVR Agreement).
Each CVR represents the right to receive one of the following contingent cash payments, without interest, subject to any applicable withholding taxes (such applicable payment, the “Milestone Payment”), conditioned upon the achievement of the corresponding milestone condition within the following specified time periods:
| (i) | $0.70, if the Milestone (as defined below) is first achieved on or prior to the date that is 12 months prior to Milestone Deadline Date (as defined below) and the applicable regulatory approval provides for a dosing schedule of once every three weeks, |
| (ii) | $0.45, if the Milestone is first achieved on or prior to the date that is 12 months prior to the Milestone Deadline Date and the applicable regulatory approval provides for a dosing schedule that is more frequent than once every three weeks, |
| (iii) | $0.45, if the Milestone is first achieved after the date that is 12 months prior to the Milestone Deadline Date but on or prior to the Milestone Deadline Date, and the applicable regulatory approval provides for a dosing schedule of once every three weeks, or |
| (iv) | $0.20, if the Milestone is first achieved after the date that is 12 months prior to the Milestone Deadline Date but on or prior to the Milestone Deadline Date, and the applicable regulatory approval provides for a dosing schedule that is more frequent than once every three weeks. |
As used in the CVR Agreement, (a) the “Milestone Deadline Date” means the date that is 36 months after the date on which a marketing authorization application or equivalent for cosibelimab receives a positive validation outcome by the European Medicines Agency (the “EMA”) and (b) the “Milestone” means the receipt of regulatory approval of cosibelimab in (i) the European Union pursuant to the centralized approval procedure or (ii) any of Germany, France, Italy, Spain or the United Kingdom.
Parent (directly or through its affiliates) is obligated to use, and to obligate its licensees to use, certain specified commercially reasonable efforts to (i) file a marketing authorization application for cosibelimab with the EMA within 12 months of the Closing Date or, to the extent any feedback or communications from, or expectations or requirements of, the EMA (including additional trial requirements) make it impracticable or inadvisable to file such marketing authorization application within such time period, as promptly thereafter as practicable, and (ii) achieve the Primary Milestone (as defined in the CVR Agreement) in its then-maximum value as promptly as practicable (including timely filing any appeals and curing any deficiencies identified in a relevant marketing authorization application by the relevant regulatory authority). Parent’s obligations to use such commercially reasonable efforts terminates on the earlier of (a) the Milestone Deadline Date and (b) the achievement of the Milestone. There can be no assurance that the Milestone will be achieved on or before the Milestone Deadline Date, or that any Milestone Payments will be made. The Company is treating the CVR as variable consideration that is constrained until the achievement of the specified milestones.
Warrant Amendment
Additionally, in connection with the Checkpoint’s entry into the Merger Agreement, Checkpoint entered into a letter agreement (the “Warrant Amendment”), dated as of March 9, 2025, with Armistice Capital Master Fund Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Armistice”). Pursuant to the Warrant Amendment, Checkpoint and Armistice agreed (i) to, immediately prior to the Effective Time, amend all outstanding Checkpoint Warrants held by or issued to Armistice or any of its affiliates other than the Specified Warrant (the “Armistice Warrants”) to provide that each such Armistice Warrant that remains outstanding and unexercised as of the Effective Time will automatically be converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the product of (a) the number of shares of Checkpoint common stock underlying such Armistice Warrant, multiplied by (b) the excess, if any, of (1) $4.10 over (2) the per share exercise price for such Armistice Warrant, less any applicable tax withholdings and (ii) one CVR in respect of each share underlying such Armistice Warrants, and (ii) that at the Effective Time, to the extent that any portion of that certain warrant to purchase 5,853,659 Shares, dated as of July 2, 2024 (the “Specified Warrant”), remains outstanding and unexercised as of the Effective Time, the Specified Warrant will be converted into the right of Armistice to receive, for each Share underlying the Specified Warrant, a cash payment equal to $3.62. The Warrant Amendment also provides that Armistice will not be entitled to transfer the Armistice Warrants prior to the Effective Time unless the Merger Agreement is validly terminated in accordance with its terms prior to the Effective Time.
Royalty Agreement
Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Checkpoint entered into a Royalty Agreement (the “Royalty Agreement”) with Parent and Fortress pursuant to which Fortress will receive a royalty interest right based on worldwide net sales of certain products of Checkpointand Parent. The royalty interest right represents the right to receive quarterly cash payments of 2.5% of net sales of such products during the royalty period set forth in the Royalty Agreement.
Transition Services Agreement
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, as of the Effective Time, Checkpoint and Fortress entered into a Transition Services Agreement (the “Transition Services Agreement”), pursuant to which, from and after the Effective Time, Fortress will provide Checkpoint with certain transition services as set forth in the Transition Services Agreement, for the period of time and in exchange for the compensation set forth therein.
Urica
On July 15, 2024, Urica entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “APA”), royalty agreement (the “Royalty Agreement”), and related agreements (collectively, the “Transaction Documents”) with Crystalys Therapeutics, Inc. (“Crystalys”). Crystalys is a Delaware corporation incorporated in 2022 and seeded by life sciences institutional investors. Under the Transaction Documents, Urica sold the rights to its URAT1 inhibitor product candidate, dotinurad, which is in development for the treatment of gout, together with related intellectual property, licenses and agreements to Crystalys. In return, Crystalys issued to Urica shares of its common stock equal to 35% of Crystalys’ outstanding equity. Urica’s equity position cannot be reduced below 15% of Crystalys’ fully-diluted equity capitalization until Crystalys raises $150 million from the sale of equity securities.
The Transaction Documents also granted Urica a secured three percent (3%) royalty on future net sales of dotinurad to be paid by Crystalys. Urica has the right to appointone director to the board of directors of Crystalys. Crystalys is obliged to use commercially reasonable efforts to develop and commercialize dotinurad.
The APA also gives Urica the right, but not the obligation, to repurchase the sold assets for a repurchase price not to exceed $6.4 million plus accrued interest; the repurchase option expires upon the consummation by Crystalys of a qualified financing of at least $120 million by July 15, 2026. Urica has recorded a liability for the $0.6 million received as reimbursement for clinical and development expenses, which is being accreted up to the repurchase price over the term of the repurchase option, and is not recognizing an asset for its ownership interest received in Crystalys until the expiration of the repurchase option. Accordingly, at June 30, 2025, for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2025, Urica recorded accretion of $(0.1) million and $0.6 million, respectively, of the repurchase option price, which is booked to interest expense and financing fee in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. There wasno accretion booked in comparable periods in 2024.
In June 2025, Crystalys received capital and capital commitments from a syndicate of investors in a Series A financing to advance the development of dotinurad.
Avenue
Under a share repurchase agreement between Avenue and InvaGen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“InvaGen”) under which Avenue repurchased all of InvaGen’s shares in Avenue, Avenue agreed to pay InvaGen an additional amount as a contingent fee, payable in the form of seven and a half percent (7.5%) of the net proceeds of future financings, until $4.0 million in the aggregate is paid to InvaGen. In connection with equity financings in the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, Avenue made payments totalingnil and $0.3 million, respectively, to InvaGen. In the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, Avenue made payments totaling $0.2 million and $0.6 million, respectively, to InvaGen. Approximately $1.4 million in aggregate has been paid to InvaGen under the share repurchase agreement through the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Fortress' depreciation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was approximately $0.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively, and was approximately $0.2 million and $0.8 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Fortress’ depreciation expense is recorded in both research and development expense and general and administrative expense in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.
Asset Impairment - Mustang
During the three months ended June 30, 2024, Mustang concluded it had a triggering event requiring assessment of impairment for certain leasehold improvements and the related right-of-use asset. Mustang assessed the carrying value of the asset group consisting of the leasehold improvements and right-of-use asset in accordance with ASC 360, given the significant changes to Mustang’s operations, operating cash and the repurchase of equipment. The assessment of the recoverability of the asset group concluded that there was impairment on the carrying value of the asset group of approximately$2.6 million, which was allocated on a pro rata basis using the relative carrying amounts of the assets. Approximately$2.2 million of the impairment loss was allocated to the leasehold improvements, with the remaining$0.4 million allocated to the right-of-use asset.
In February 2025, Mustang terminated the lease of its manufacturing facility. The remaining lease liability of approximately $0.8 million was reversed, and the remaining leasehold improvements of approximately $0.3 million and right of use assets of approximately $0.1 million were written off, resulting in a net gain of $0.4 million recorded in research and development expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Checkpoint
Checkpoint deemed the placement agent warrants it issued in connection with a registered direct offering (the “December 2022 Placement Agent Warrants”) to be classified as liabilities on the balance sheet as they contain terms for redemption of the underlying security that are outside its control. The December 2022 Placement Agent Warrants were recorded at the time of closing at a fair value determined by using the Black-Scholes model. Checkpoint revalued the December 2022 Placement Agent Warrants at each reporting period thereafter until the closing date of the transaction with Sun Pharma, May 2025 (see Note 3). At December 31, 2024, the liability associated with the December 2022 Placement Agent Warrants was $0.2 million. At June 30, 2025 the liability associated with the December 2022 Placement Agent Warrants wasnil due to the deconsolidation of Checkpoint (see Note 3).

Avenue
Avenue has previously issued freestanding warrants to purchase shares of its common stock in connection with financing activities. Avenue’s outstanding warrants to purchase common stock were originally issued in October 2022 (the “October 2022 Warrants”). The October 2022 Warrants are classified as liabilities on the balance sheet as they contain terms for redemption of the underlying security that are outside of its control. In connection with the Avenue January 2023 registered direct offering in January 2023, the down-round price protection feature was triggered and the exercise price for the October 2022 Warrants was permanently adjusted to $116.25, which was the offering price for the Avenue registered direct offering in January 2023. The Black-Scholes model was used to value the October 2022 Warrants as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. At June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the liability associated with the October 2022 Warrants was de minimis and approximately $16,000, respectively.

Journey
In June 2021, Journey entered a license, collaboration, and assignment agreement (the “Emrosi Agreement”) to obtain global rights for the development and commercialization of Emrosi TM (Minocycline Hydrochloride Extended-Release Capsules, 40mg), also known as DFD-29, for the treatment of rosacea with Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories, Ltd (“DRL”); provided, that DRL retained certain rights to the program in select markets, namely in Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Brazil, Georgia, India Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, the People’s Republic of China, Russia, Taiwan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine and Uzbekistan. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Emrosi Agreement, Journey paid $10.0 million. In April 2024, Journey made a $3.0 million milestone payment to DRL, based on FDA acceptance of the NDA application for Emrosi, and in December of 2024 Journey made a $15.0 million milestone payment to DRL, which was triggered by the FDA marketing approval of Emrosi. Upon the $15.0 million milestone payment, the assets that had been the subject of the exclusive license related to Emrosi, including the NDA itself, the patents and other intellectual property, were assigned to Journey. Pursuant to the Emrosi Agreement, Journey may be required to make additional contingent regulatory and commercial milestone payments to DRL, totaling up to $150.0 million. Journey is required to pay royalties ranging from approximatelyten percent tofourteen percent on net sales of Emrosi, subject to certain possible reductions. Journey launched Emrosi in March 2025.
Avenue
On February 28, 2023, Avenue entered into a license agreement with AnnJi Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. (“AnnJi”), whereby Avenue obtained an exclusive license (the “AnnJi License Agreement”) from AnnJi to the intellectual property rights pertaining to the molecule known as JM17, which activates Nrf1 and Nrf2, enhances androgen receptor degradation and underlies AJ201, a clinical product candidate currently in a Phase 1b/2a clinical trial in the U.S. for the treatment of SBMA, also known as Kennedy's Disease. Under the AnnJi License Agreement, in exchange for exclusive rights to the intellectual property underlying the AJ201 product candidates, Avenue paid $3.0 million, issued shares of Avenue stock intwo tranches, and agreed to make additional payments including: reimbursement of payments up to $10.8 million in connection with the product’s Phase 1b/2a clinical trial, up to $14.5 million in connection with certain development milestones pertaining to the first indication in the U.S., up to $27.5 million in connection with certain drug development milestones pertaining to additional indications and development outside the U.S., up to $165 million upon the achievement of certain net sales milestones ranging from $75 million to $750 million in annual net sales, and royalty payments based on a percentage of net sales ranging from mid-single digits to the low-double digits, which were subject to potential diminution in certain circumstances. On March 3, 2025, Avenue received a notice of AnnJi’s intent to terminate the AnnJi License Agreement, in which AnnJi asserted several bases for its right to terminate the AnnJi License Agreement.
On April 24, 2025 (the “Termination Effective Date”), Avenue and AnnJi entered into a License Termination and Program Transfer Agreement (the “Termination and Transfer Agreement”), pursuant to which: (i) the AnnJi License Agreement and related agreements were terminated with immediate effect; (ii) the parties dismissed all pending dispute resolution proceedings between them and provided mutual releases of claims; (iii) Avenue transferred to AnnJi all of its rights, title and interest to and under the assets arising under the AnnJi License Agreement and otherwise related to AJ201 and (iv) Avenue agreed not to, for 48 months following the date of the Termination and Transfer Agreement, develop, commercialize, manufacture or sell any product competing with AJ201 in the US, Canada, the European Union, Great Britain or Israel. Under the Termination and Transfer Agreement, Avenue repurchased all shares of common stock held by AnnJi for an aggregate payment of $1.00, and Avenue also made a payment of $0.2 million to AnnJi for legal expense reimbursement, which was accounted for as consideration payable to a customer and reduced the amount of revenue recognized by Avenue under the agreement.
AnnJi agreed to make payments to Avenue of $1.6 million net of 20% tax withholding, with $0.8 million collected by Avenue in May 2025 and $0.8 million collected by Avenue in July 2025. The $1.6 million, less the $0.2 million as consideration for legal expenses, was recognized as other revenue as the performance obligations related to rights transferred to AnnJi were satisfied during the quarter ended June 30, 2025. Additionally, Avenue will be eligible to receive from AnnJi:
| ● | payments totaling up to $5 million in the aggregate upon the occurrence of certain development and regulatory milestone events pertaining to AJ201; |
| ● | payments totaling up to $17 million in the aggregate upon AJ201 experiencing certain commercial sales milestone events; |
| ● | a 1.75% royalty on net sales of AJ201, which royalty percentage is subject to potential diminution in certain circumstances; and |
| ● | in the event that AnnJi enters into one or more subsequent licenses of rights to AJ201 with third party licensee(s), 15% of payments received by AnnJi from such licensee(s), up to a cap of $7.5 million, and with a minimum of $4 million owing under certain mechanism in the event of an approval of a New Drug Application in the U.S. with respect to AJ201. |

2024 Oaktree Note
On July 25, 2024, Fortress entered into the $50.0 million senior secured credit agreement (the “New Oaktree Agreement”) with a maturity date of July 25, 2027 with Oaktree Fund Administration, LLC and the lenders from time-to-time party thereto (collectively, “Oaktree”). The Company borrowed $35.0 million under the New Oaktree Agreement on the Closing Date (the “2024 Oaktree Note”) and is eligible to draw up to an additional $15.0 million at the lenders’ discretion to support future business development activities. The 2024 Oaktree Note replaced the 2020 Oaktree Note (as defined below), with respect to which the remaining $50.0 million balance was repaid in full.
Under the terms of the New Oaktree Agreement, the loans have a 30-month interest-only period with a maturity date of July 25, 2027, and bear interest at an annual rate equal to the 3-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) plus 7.625% (subject to a 2.50% SOFR floor and a 5.75% SOFR cap). For the quarter ended June 30, 2025, the interest rate applicable to the 2024 Oaktree Note was 11.92%. The Company is required to make quarterly interest-only payments until the maturity date, except fifty percent of the then-outstanding principal balance of the loans is due on March 31, 2027, with the remaining principal amount due on the maturity date.
The Company may voluntarily prepay, in whole or in part, the amounts due under the New Oaktree Agreement at any time subject to a prepayment fee. Subject to prior written notice by the Company, to repay any amounts due prior to the maturity date, the Company must pay the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of the Loans being prepaid, (B) any accrued but unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Loans being prepaid, (C) any applicable Yield Protection Premium (as defined in the New Oaktree Agreement) and (D) if applicable, other unpaid amounts then due and owing pursuant to the New Oaktree Agreement and the other loan documents (such aggregate amount, the “Prepayment Price”); provided that each partial prepayment of the principal amount of the Loans shall be in an aggregate amount of at least $5.0 million and integral multiples of $1.0 million in excess thereof. The Company is required to make mandatory prepayments of the Loans with net cash proceeds from (i) certain casualty events, (ii) certain monetization events, including, among other things, certain asset sales and the sale(s) of priority review vouchers by certain subsidiaries of the Company, and the receipt by the Company of any dividend or other distributions in cash from any of its subsidiaries in excess of $5.0 million other than in connection with certain monetization events, (iii) debt issuances that are not permitted, and (iv) failure to comply with certain covenants. The lenders may elect to receive warrants to purchase common stock of the Company as an alternative to cash prepayments in some situations where a mandatory prepayment would otherwise be required. In the quarter ended June 30, 2025, due to the receipt of proceeds from the sale of Checkpoint (see Note 3), the Company made a payment to Oaktree comprised of: $4.9 million in principal, $0.1 million in interest, and $0.3 million in Yield Protection Premium. In July 2025, also related to receipt of funds from the sale of Checkpoint, the Company made a payment to Oaktree comprised of: $0.6 million in principal, a nominal interest amount, and approximately $32,000 in Yield Protection Premium (see Note 19).
The New Oaktree Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants, including, among other things, restrictions on indebtedness, liens, investments, mergers, dispositions, prepayment of other indebtedness, and dividends and other distributions, subject to certain exceptions. In addition, the New Oaktree Agreement contains certain financial covenants, including, (i) a requirement that the Company maintain a minimum liquidity of $7.0 million, which may be reduced or increased as described in the New Oaktree Agreement (“the “Liquidity Requirement”), and (ii) that product net sales of Journey meet a consolidated minimum net sales amount of $50.0 million on a trailing 12-month basis, tested quarterly, which may be reduced or increased as described in the New Oaktree Agreement (the “Minimum Net Sales Test”), subject to certain exclusions. Due to the approval of Emrosi, the minimum net sales amount will increase by $7.5 million each quarter, beginning in the third quarter of 2025, provided that the minimum net sales amount will in no event exceed $80.0 million. Both the Minimum Net Sales Test and the Liquidity Requirement will be reduced to $0 while theoutstanding principal balance is less than or equal to $10.0 million. The Liquidity Requirement decreases to $5.0 million while the outstanding principal balance is between $10.0 million and $25.0 million. Failure by the Company to comply with the financial covenants will result in an event of default, subject to certain cure rights of the Company with respect to the Minimum Net Sales Test.
The New Oaktree Agreement contains events of default that are customary for financings of this type, in certain circumstances subject to customary cure periods. In addition, the Company is also required to (i) raise cash proceeds from the sale of common stock, or receive monetizations or distributions, by the end of each calendar year prior to the maturity date, in an aggregate amount equal to the greater of $20 million or 50% of an amount set forth in an annual budget delivered to the lenders and (ii) maintain a specified minimum equity stake in Journey. These capital raise and minimum stake covenants and financial covenants will not apply if the outstanding principal balance of the loan is less than or equal to $10 million. Following an event of default and any cure period, if applicable, the Agent will have the right upon notice to accelerate all amounts outstanding under the New Oaktree Agreement, in addition to other remedies available to the lenders as secured creditors of the Company.
In connection with the New Oaktree Agreement, the Company granted a security interest in favor of Oaktree, for the benefit of the lenders, in substantially all of the Company’s assets, subject to customary exceptions, as collateral securing the Company’s obligations under the New Oaktree Agreement. Also in connection with the New Oaktree Agreement, the Company granted warrants to the lenders to purchase up to 506,390 shares of the Company’s common stock at a purchase price of $2.0735 per share (the “Warrants”), later reduced to $1.65 per share. The Warrants contain customary anti-dilution adjustments to the exercise price, including for share splits, share dividends, rights offerings and pro rata distributions. The exercise price of the Warrants will also be adjusted if, while the Warrants are outstanding, the Company engages in any transaction involving the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock or equivalent securities at an effective price per share less than the exercise price of the Warrant then in effect (such lower price, the “Base Share Price”). In such case, the exercise price of the Warrants will be reduced to equal the Base Share Price. In connection with the financing consummated by the Company in September 2024, the Warrants had their exercise price reduced to $1.65 per share. The Warrants are exercisable from July 25, 2024, will expire on July 25, 2031 and may be net exercised for no cash payment at the holder’s election. The Company filed a registration statement to register the resale of the shares of Company common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (see Note 13).
The Company was in compliance with all applicable financial covenants under the New Oaktree Agreement as of June 30, 2025.
2020 Oaktree Note
On July 25, 2024, the Company’s $50.0 million outstanding balance of the senior secured credit agreement with Oaktree (the “Prior Oaktree Agreement” and the debt thereunder, the “2020 Oaktree Note”) was terminated upon receipt by Oaktree of a payoff amount of $51.4 million from the Company comprised of principal, interest and the applicable final payment amount. The payoff of the 2020 Oaktree Note was treated as a debt extinguishment, as the 2024 Oaktree Note originated from a fund group different from the Prior Oaktree Agreement. The Company recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $3.6 million, representing unamortized debt issuance costs and inclusive of a $1.0 million prepayment fee; the loss on extinguishment was recorded to interest expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2024.
The Company had entered the Prior Oaktree Agreement in August 2020. The Prior Oaktree Agreement contained customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants as well as certain financial covenants, including, among other things, (i) maintenance of minimum liquidity and (ii) a minimum revenue test that required Journey’s annual revenue to be equal to or to exceed annual revenue projections set forth in the Prior Oaktree Agreement. Failure by the Company or Journey, as applicable, to have complied with the Prior Oaktree Agreement covenants would have resulted in an event of default, subject to certain cure rights of the Company.
The Company was required to make quarterly interest-only payments until the fifth anniversary of the closing date of the 2020 Oaktree Note, August 27, 2025, at which point the outstanding principal amount would have been due. The Company could have voluntarily prepaid the 2020 Oaktree Note at any time subject to a prepayment fee. The Company was required to make mandatory prepayments of the 2020 Oaktree Note under various circumstances as defined in the Prior Oaktree Agreement.
SWK Term Loan
On December 27, 2023 (the “SWK Closing Date”), Journey entered into a credit agreement (the “SWK Credit Agreement”) with SWK Funding LLC (“SWK”). The SWK Credit Agreement provides for a term loan facility (the “SWK Credit Facility”) in the original principal amount of up to$20.0 million. On the SWK Closing Date, Journey drew$15 million. On June 26, 2024, Journey drew the remaining$5.0 million under the SWK Credit Facility. On July 9, 2024, Journey entered into the amendment to the SWK Credit Agreement with SWK. The amendment increased the original principal amount of the SWK Credit Facility from$20.0 million to$25.0 million. The$5.0 million of additional principal added in the amendment was contractually required to be drawn upon FDA approval of Emrosi, subject to Journey receiving approval on or before June 30, 2025. Journey drew on the remaining$5.0 million relating to the FDA approval of Emrosi on November 25, 2024.
Loans under the SWK Credit Facility (the “Term Loans”) mature on December 27, 2027. The Term Loans accrue interest at a rate per annum equal to the three-month term SOFR (subject to a SOFR floor of 5%) plus 7.75% and interest is payable quarterly and resets quarterly.
Beginning in February 2026, Journey is required to repay a portion of the outstanding principal of the Term Loans quarterly in an amount equal to 7.5% of the principal amount of funded Term Loans, with any remaining principal balance due on the maturity date. If the total revenue of Journey, measured on a trailing twelve-month basis, is greater than $70.0 million as of December 31, 2025, the principal repayment start date is extended from February 2026 to February 2027, at which point Journey is required to repay a portion of the outstanding principal of the Term Loans quarterly in an amount equal to 15% of the principal amount of funded Term Loans, with any remaining principal balance due on the maturity date.
Journey may at any time prepay the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loans in whole or in part. Prepayment of the Term Loans is subject to payment of a prepayment premium equal to (i)1% of the Term Loans prepaid if the Term Loans are prepaid on or after the first anniversary of the SWK Closing Date but prior to the second anniversary of the SWK Closing Date, or (ii)0% if prepaid thereafter.
Upon repayment in full of the Term Loans, Journey will pay an exit fee equal to 5% of the original principal amount of the Term Loans. Additionally, Journey paid an origination fee of$0.2 million on the SWK Closing Date and incurred issuance costs of$0.2 million, both of which have been recorded as a debt discount. Journey is accreting the carrying value of the SWK Term Loan to the original principal balance plus the exit fee over the term of the loan using the effective interest method. The amortization of the discount is accounted for as interest expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The effective interest rate on the SWK Term Loan as of June 30, 2025 was 14.6%.
The SWK Credit Facility also includes both revenue and liquidity covenants, restrictions as to payment of dividends, and is secured by substantially all assets of Journey. As of June 30, 2025, Journey was in compliance with the financial covenants under the SWK Credit Facility.
Interest Expense
Interest expense includes contractual interest, and fees include amortization of the debt discount and amortization of fees associated with loan transaction costs, amortized over the life of the loan. The following table shows the components of interest expense for all debt arrangements during the periods presented:

- Non-Controlling Interests
The Company’s ownership interests in its consolidated subsidiaries at June 30, 2025 was similar to December 31, 2024, with the exception of Checkpoint, which was deconsolidated due to the sale to Sun Pharma in May 2025 (see Note 3).
- Net Income (Loss) per Common Share
Basic net income or loss per share attributed to common stockholders is calculated by dividing the net income or loss attributed to Fortress, including the Series A Preferred dividends and subsidiary deemed dividends, by the weighted-average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period, not including unvested restricted stock and other potentially dilutive securities. Diluted net income (loss) per share of common stock includes the effect, if any, from the potential exercise or conversion of securities, such as warrants, stock options, restricted stock units, and restricted stock using the treasury stock method, if dilutive. The impact of these items is anti-dilutive during periods of net loss.
For the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the effect on the net income (loss) per share calculation from Series A Preferred dividends (paid and cumulated but undeclared) (see Note 13) was $2.0 million and $2.0 million, respectively, and partner company preferred and deemed dividends were $0.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the effect on the net income (loss) per share calculation from Series A Preferred dividends (paid and cumulated but undeclared) (see Note 13) was $4.0 million and $4.0 million, respectively, and partner company preferred and deemed dividends were $0.2 million and $0.8 million, respectively.
The following potentially dilutive securities would be excluded from the computation of net loss per common share as of the dates presented if the Company was in a net loss position:

- Stockholders’ Equity
9.375%* Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock Dividends*
On July 5, 2024, Fortress announced that the Company’s Board of Directors had decided to pause the monthly dividend of $0.1953125 per share of the Company’s 9.375% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”). In accordance with the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock, dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock will continue to accrue and cumulate until such dividends are authorized or declared. The pausing of these dividends will defer approximately $0.7 million in cash dividend payments each month. The Board intends to revisit its decision regarding the monthly dividend regularly and will assess the profitability and cash flow of the Company to determine whether and when the pause should be lifted.
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, no dividends were declared by the Board of Directors. Dividends in arrears that have not been declared by the Board of Directors are not recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets but are reflected in the net loss attributable to common shareholders (see Note 12). As of June 30, 2025, the Company had total undeclared dividends of approximately $8.0 million, which comprises the cumulated (but undeclared) dividends due to Series A Preferred shareholders for the six months ended June 30, 2025 of $4.0 million and for the year ended December 31, 2024 of $4.0 million.
Stock-based Compensation

Amended and Restated Long-Term Incentive Program (“LTIP”)
On July 15, 2015, the Company’s stockholders approved the LTIP for the Company’s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Rosenwald, and Executive Vice Chairman, Strategic Development, Mr. Weiss (amended and restated with stockholder approval on June 7, 2017 and May 23, 2024). The LTIP consists of a program to grant equity interests in the Company and in the Company’s subsidiaries, and a performance-based bonus program that is designed to result in performance-based compensation that is deductible without limit under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
On January 1, 2025 and 2024, the Compensation Committee granted 454,163 shares and 216,465 shares each to Dr. Rosenwald and Mr. Weiss, respectively. Each of these four equity grants, made in accordance with the LTIP, represented 1% of total outstanding shares of the Company as of the dates of such grants. Restricted shares granted under the LTIP vest upon (i)(A) the Company achieving a specified increase in market capitalization since the grant date and (B) the participant remaining in service with the Company until (or being involuntarily terminated prior to) July 16, 2025, or (ii) a change in control of the Company, provided the eligible participant remains in service with the Company until the date of such transaction. If the restricted shares have not vested in accordance with the preceding sentence, they will be subject to a repurchase option by the Company at a nominal price for 90 days following the earlier of July 16, 2025 or the participant’s voluntary separation from service with the Company. The fair value of each grant on the grant date was approximately $0.9 million for the 2025 grant and $0.7 million for the 2024 grant. For the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded stock compensation expense related to LTIP grants of approximately $2.5 million and $1.7 million, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded stock compensation expense related to LTIP grants of approximately $5.0 million and $3.3 million, respectively, on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations.
Capital Raises
2024 Shelf
On May 17, 2024, the Company filed a shelf registration statement (File No. 333-279516) on Form S-3, which was declared effective on May 30, 2024 (the “2024 Shelf”). As of June 30, 2025, $42.1 million of securities were available for sale under the 2024 Shelf, subject to General Instruction I.B.6. of Form S-3, known as the “baby shelf rules,” which limit the number of securities that can be sold under registration statements on Form S-3. However, on July 5, 2024, the board of directors paused the payment of dividends on our Series A Preferred Stock until further notice. As a result, the Company is not currently eligible to use Form S-3 and has lost the ability to use the 2024 Shelf. The Company will regain eligibility to use the 2024 Shelf on the date it files its Annual Report on Form 10-K, so long as it has: (i) by that date, paid all accrued but unpaid dividends at that time and (ii) timely paid all dividends accruing since the end of the fiscal year to which such Form 10-K relates.
Because the Company is not currently eligible to use Form S-3 due to the failure to pay dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock, on April 1, 2025 the Company filed a post-effective amendment to certain prior Form S-3 registration statements to continue the registration of:
| ● | the offer and sale by certain selling stockholders who were previously holders of shares of 8% Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Class B Preferred Stock of Urica, of an aggregate of up to 1,987,250 shares of the Company’s common stock; |
| ● | the offer and sale of up to 5,885,000 shares underlying warrants originally issued as part of units, each consisting of one share of Common Stock and one warrant, originally registered pursuant to the prospectus filed with the SEC under November 10, 2023; |
| ● | the offer and sale of up to 3,303,305 shares underlying warrants originally issued as part of units, each consisting of one share of Common Stock and one warrant, originally registered pursuant to the prospectus filed with the SEC on December 29, 2023; and |
| ● | the offer and sale by certain selling stockholders of up to 116,637 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of warrants, as amended, granted to Oaktree and its affiliates under the Prior Oaktree Agreement. |
This post-effective amendment was declared effective by the SEC on April 2, 2025.
At the Market Offering

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company issued and sold approximately 0.5 million shares at an average price of $1.99 for gross proceeds of $0.9 million under the Company’s at-the-market offering program. The at-the-market offering program is currently suspended as a result of the Company’s current ineligibility to use Form S-3 registration statements.
Checkpoint 2025 Warrant Exercises
In January 2025, Checkpoint received approximately$2.1 million from the exercise of warrants for the issuance of 740,000 shares of common stock with an exercise price of$2.84 per share.

In April 2025, Checkpoint received approximately $9.2 million from the exercise of warrants for the issuance of 3,256,269 shares of common stock with an average exercise price of $2.82 per share.
Pursuant to the Company’s Founders Agreement with Checkpoint, Checkpoint issued to Fortress 2.5% of the aggregate number of shares of common stock issued in the January 2025 warrant exercises noted above. Accordingly, Checkpoint issued 18,500 shares of common stock to Fortress in the five months ended May 30, 2025. Pursuant to the Support Agreement between Fortress, Checkpoint and Sun Pharma, Fortress waived its right to receive any equity fee with respect to any equity issuances by Checkpoint (including those resulting from warrant exercise) that are effected subsequent to May 30, 2025, the date on which the Merger Agreement was executed.

In December 2021, Avenue filed a shelf registration statement (File No. 333-261520) on Form S-3 (the “Avenue 2021 S-3”), which was declared effective on December 10, 2021. Avenue filed a replacement shelf registration on Form S-3 on December 4, 2024 (the "Avenue Replacement Shelf"), which has not yet become effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. However, effective as of July 18, 2025, Avenue was formally delisted from Nasdaq with Nasdaq's filing on that date of a Form 25 with the SEC; Avenue is therefore ineligible to use Form S-3 and unable to use the Avenue 2021 S-3 or the Avenue Replacement Shelf.

Avenue is no longer able to utilize the Avenue ATM as a result of the delisting of its stock from trading on the Nasdaq.
Pursuant to the Company’s Founders Agreement with Avenue, Avenue issued to Fortress 2.5% of the aggregate number of shares of common stock issued in the offering noted above. Accordingly, Avenue issued 23,474 shares of common stock to Fortress for the six-month period ended June 30, 2025.

Each Warrant has an exercise price of $3.01 per share and became exercisable beginning on the effective date of stockholder approval of the issuance of the Warrant Shares (the “Warrant Stockholder Approval”). The Series C-1 warrants will expire five years from the date of stockholder approval and the Series C-2 warrants will expire twenty-four months from the date of stock holder approval. The warrants contain customary anti-dilution adjustments to the exercise price, including share splits, share dividends, rights offerings and pro rata distributions.

Cyprium9.375% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock Dividend Obligation
Pursuant to a private placement in August 2020, Cyprium sold 320,000 shares of its 9.375% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock (“Cyprium PPS”); as of June 30, 2025, there remain 320,000 shares of Cyprium PPS outstanding. The Cyprium PPS is fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Fortress.
Pursuant to the terms of the Cyprium PPS, shareholders on each record date are entitled to receive a monthly cash dividend of $0.19531 per share which yields an annual dividend of $2.34375 per share. The Cyprium PPS will automatically be redeemed upon the first (and only the first) bona fide, arm’s-length sale of a Priority Review Voucher (a “PRV Sale”) issued by the FDA in connection with the approval of CUTX-101, Cyprium’s copper histidinate product candidate. Upon the PRV Sale, each share of Cyprium PPS will be automatically redeemed in exchange for a payment equal to twice (2x) the $25.00 liquidation preference, plus* *accumulated and unpaid dividends to, but excluding, the redemption date.
If a PRV Sale has not occurred by March 31, 2026 (the “Exchange Date”), the Cyprium PPS will automatically be exchanged for Fortress Series A Preferred Stock or cash, at the discretion of Fortress.

- Income taxes
The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to US federal and state income taxes. Income tax expense is the total of the current year income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. 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 loss and tax credit carry-forwards. 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 effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.
The Company files a consolidated income tax return with subsidiaries in which the Company holds an 80% or greater ownership interest. Subsidiaries in which the Company does not have an 80% or more ownership stake are not included in the Company’s consolidated income tax group and file their own separate income tax return(s). As a result, certain corporate entities included in these financial statements are not able to combine or offset their taxable income or losses with other entities’ tax attributes.
On July 4, 2025, the U.S. enacted a budget reconciliation package known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act of 2025 (“OBBB”) which includes, among other things, tax provisions for 100% depreciation for certain new capital investments and modifications to the net interest deduction limitations. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the OBBB on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
Income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 is based on the estimated annual effective tax rate, and includes interest related to unrecognized tax benefits.
