Current report

Our operating results may be impacted by the effects of, and changes in, worldwide economic conditions, international trade, tariffs and retaliatory countermeasures, export controls and other trade barriers, global trade wars or domestic preferences which could increase our costs and materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. Our global business, operations, and the execution of our business strategies and plans are subject to global competition and economic and geopolitical risks that are beyond our control, such as, among other things, tariffs and retaliatory countermeasures, trade barriers and other governmental protectionist measures impacting international trade agreements or imposing trade restrictions, any of which can negatively affect us. The global economy has been impacted by geopolitical tensions. There is currently significant uncertainty about future trade relationships between the United States and various other countries, most significantly Russia, Canada, Mexico, and China. Further escalation of specific trade tensions, including those between the U.S. and China, or more broadly in global trade conflicts, could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business and operations. The U.S. government and other governments have imposed export controls and tariffs on certain products and certain components that we import into, and export out of, the United States, and we, our customers, suppliers, and partners may become subject to additional tariffs and export controls and our products and services may be subject to increased competition outside of the United States. In addition, geopolitical tensions could result in, among other things, cyberattacks, supply chain disruptions, higher energy and other commodity costs, lower demand, changes to foreign exchange rates and financial markets. Additional tariffs and trade restrictions may result in increased manufacturing costs and product pricing, further supply chain disruptions, limit access to end markets and lower profitability. We also generate a significant amount of our revenue outside of the United States which may be adversely affected by tariffs and trade controls imposed by other countries. Revenue generated from outside of North America accounted for approximately 37.1% of our net sales for the year ended December 31, 2025, and approximately 37.0% of our net sales for the year ended December 31, 2024, and international sales are expected to remain a material percentage of our total revenue in future periods. If we are not successful in offsetting the impact of tariffs, export controls, trade barriers, and other geopolitical disruptions, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.

Current report

Following the Paragon acquisition, our growth strategy relies in part on plans to supply our products and services to SMRs and other advanced reactors in the U.S., an emerging market that may grow more slowly than we expect. Our Nuclear and Safety growth strategy relies on market research that estimates that the market for SMRs will surge, driven by a global growth in energy, and specifically electricity demand, and we have accordingly pursued entering into strategic agreements with a number of SMR companies in the U.S. However, these companies face multiple commercialization obstacles including reactor design, regulatory licensing, and securing customers willing and able to make large investments in emerging nuclear technologies. Each SMR developer faces unique risks, including risks related to technology, regulatory approvals, and financing. Even for those SMR companies that succeed, the cost curves that will be required for successful commercialization at scale will be aggressive and competition will be fierce among them, and also from other cost-competitive energy solutions. Further, many of these SMR companies are new entrants to the nuclear market and may fail operationally even if they develop a successful reactor, which may negatively impact the entire market. Our assumptions, estimates and plans about the SMR market may not be correct or they may change at any time, and our revenue may be subject to volatility as our SMR partners succeed, delay or cancel their projects, or fail altogether, which could cause material and adverse impacts on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Current report

In July 2025 and December 2025 we acquired Certrec and Paragon, respectively. These acquisitions may not meet our expectations. Their success, including anticipated benefits, will depend, in part, on our ability to successfully integrate our respective organizations without materially disrupting existing business and strategic relationships. If we experience difficulties in the integration process, we may not fully realize the anticipated benefits of the acquisitions in a timely manner, or at all.

Current report

The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning in our business and operations may result in legal liability, regulatory action, increased compliance obligations, competitive or reputational harm, ethical or other concerns and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. We leverage artificial intelligence, including generative artificial intelligence and machine learning in certain of our business operations and may also use products and services from third parties that use artificial intelligence technology. Our competitors or other third parties may incorporate artificial intelligence into their operational processes more quickly or more successfully than us, which could have a material adverse effect on our competitive position, reputation and operations. In addition, there are significant risks involved in developing and deploying artificial intelligence and there can be no assurance that our use of artificial intelligence will increase our efficiency or profitability or be beneficial to our business. Laws and regulations regarding artificial intelligence technologies are rapidly evolving and complex, including in the areas of intellectual property, cybersecurity, privacy and data protection. We have implemented policies and controls to mitigate many of the novel risks presented by these new technologies but compliance with new or changing laws, regulations or industry standards relating to artificial intelligence may impose significant costs and limit our ability to develop, deploy or use artificial intelligence technologies in our business. There has been an increase in artificial intelligence related litigation and government regulatory actions targeting the design, deployment and other uses of artificial intelligence and claiming liability under numerous areas of law, such a consumer protection, product liability, privacy, intellectual property, securities and defamation. Any of these risks could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Capital Structure Risks

Current report

Conversion of our Convertible Notes may dilute the ownership interest of our stockholders or may otherwise depress the price of our Class A common stock. Upon conversion of our Convertible Notes (as defined below), we have the option to pay or deliver, cash, shares of our Class A common stock, or a combination of both. If we elect to settle our conversion obligation in shares of our Class A common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our Class A common stock, any sales in the public market of our Class A common stock issuable upon such conversion could adversely affect prevailing market prices of our Class A common stock. In addition, the existence of our Convertible Notes may encourage short selling by market participants because the conversion of the notes could be used to satisfy short positions, or anticipated conversion of our Convertible Notes into shares of our Class A common stock could depress the price of our Class A common stock.

Current report

The conditional conversion feature of our Convertible Notes, if triggered, may adversely affect our financial condition and operating results. In the event the conditional conversion feature of our Convertible Notes is triggered, holders of such notes will be entitled to convert their notes at any time during specified periods at their option. If one or more holders elect to convert their Convertible Notes, we can elect to satisfy our conversion obligation by delivering solely shares of our Class A common stock (other than paying cash in lieu of delivering any fractional share) or we can settle a portion or all of our conversion obligation through the payment of cash. If we elected to settle a portion or all of our conversion obligations through the payment of cash, it could adversely affect our liquidity. In addition, even if holders do not elect to convert their Convertible Notes, we could be required under applicable accounting rules to reclassify all or a portion of the outstanding principal of the notes as a current rather than long-term liability, which would result in a material reduction of our net working capital.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Previous report

The broader consequences of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine cannot be predicted, nor can we predict the ultimate impact of other volatile conditions in the Middle East and Asia, including the South China Sea, on the global economy or our business, results of operations, and financial condition. We could be prevented from selling our products or required to cease work on certain customer projects if additional sanctions related to these or other conflicts are imposed. These volatile geopolitical conditions have heightened other risks disclosed herein, including through increased inflation, limited availability of certain commodities, supply chain disruption, disruptions to our global technology infrastructure, including cyberattacks, increased terrorist activities, volatility or disruption in the capital markets, and delays or cancellations of customer projects, each of which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

Previous report

Issues raised by the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning in our operations may subject us to new or heightened legal, regulatory, ethical or other concerns and result in liability or reputational harm. We have started to leverage AI in certain of our operations and implemented policies and controls to mitigate many of the novel risks presented by these new technologies. We face risks related to the incorporation of AI in our operations due to the challenges inherent with properly managing its use. There can be no assurance that our investments in AI will pay off. If our employees, customers or business partners do not comply, or are dissatisfied with, our policies and practices related to the use of such technologies we may experience legal, regulatory or reputational liability. Further, we need to continuously adapt to new laws and regulations such as the European Union's Artificial Intelligence (AI) Act, and others in the United States and other jurisdictions, regulating the use of these technologies, the impact and cost of which could be significant.

Previous report

International tariffs, including tariffs that affect our products or components within our products, other trade barriers or global trade wars or domestic preferences could increase our costs and materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. Our global business could be negatively affected by tariffs, trade barriers and other governmental protectionist measures, any of which can be, and have been imposed unpredictably and without much or any prior notice. There is currently significant uncertainty about the future trade relationships between the United States and various other countries, most significantly Russia, Canada, Mexico, China and the EU. Certain components that we import into the United States from suppliers in such jurisdictions may become subject to enhanced or extraordinary tariffs and such additional tariffs in the near future. Further, the U.S. may impose global reciprocal tariffs on all countries it trades with. The imposition of global additional tariffs could increase our costs and require us to raise prices on our products, which may negatively impact the demand for our products in the affected market. If we are not successful in offsetting the impact of any such added tariffs, our business revenue, gross margins, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.

Previous report

We are subject to risks related to legal claims and proceedings filed by or against us, and adverse outcomes in these matters may materially harm our business. We are subject from time to time to various claims, disputes, investigations, demands, arbitration, litigation or other legal proceedings which may result in material damages, place restrictions on our business operations or divert our management's attention from other business issues and opportunities. Legal matters are unpredictable and significant adverse judgments, penalties, settlement amounts or defense costs could materially and adversely affect our liquidity and capital resources. It is also possible that, as a result of a present or future governmental or other proceeding or settlement significant restrictions will be placed upon, or significant changes made to our business practices and operations. Any such restrictions or changes may adversely affect our profitability or increase our compliance costs. The unfavorable resolution of one or more of these matters could have a material and adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Previous report

The recent cuts in staff at the FDA's Center for Devices and Radiological Health may result in the FDA taking longer to review applications which could cause significant delays in regulatory approvals resulting in longer timelines to bring new medical devices to market for certain products in our Medical segment. We expect the effects of these uncertainties to impact our orders and sales in the near term, and adversely impact our business, results of operations and financial condition, although we are unable to predict the exact duration or magnitude of the impact.

Risks Related to Ownership of our Securities
Reworded paragraphs (39)

Previous wording

You should carefully consider the following risk factors, together with all of the other information included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, before making an investment decision. The occurrence of one or more of the events or circumstances described in these risk factors, alone or in combination with other events or circumstances may have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. The risks described below are not the only risks we face but represent known risks we believe are material. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us, or those we currently view to be immaterial, may also adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Current wording

These risks are not the only risks we face but represent known risks we believe are material. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us, or that we currently deem to be immaterial, could also materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition or future results.

Previous wording

We have incurred operating losses in the past and we cannot yet assure you we will achieve positive net income. As of December 31, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of $541.5 million. For the years ended December 31, 2024, December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, we experienced net losses of $36.6 million, $98.7 million, and $288.4 million, respectively. We cannot yet assure you that we will achieve positive net income, but our results from the last three fiscal years have trended favorably. We continuously seek to reduce operating costs through lean initiatives, supply chain management and optimizing our capital structure but our plans could be impacted by events outside of our control including rising inflation. If our revenue and gross profit growth do not outpace the growth of our operating expenses, we may not achieve and maintain positive net income.

Current wording

We have incurred operating losses in the past and we cannot yet assure you we will always achieve positive net income. As of December 31, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $512.7 million. For the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, we experienced net income (losses) of $29.8 million, $(36.6) million, and $(98.7) million, respectively. Our prior year losses were significantly impacted by the amortization of intangible assets established as part of the GSAH acquisition. We cannot yet assure you that we will always achieve positive net income, but our results from the last three fiscal years have trended favorably. We continuously seek to reduce operating costs through lean initiatives, supply chain management and optimizing our capital structure but our plans could be impacted by events outside of our control including rising inflation. If our revenue and gross profit growth do not outpace the growth of our operating expenses, we may not achieve and maintain positive net income.

Previous wording

Our results of operations may fluctuate significantly and cause our results of operations to fall below expectations. Our business depends on the demand for our radiation detection, measurement, analysis and monitoring products, our nuclear medicine and related quality management products, and services in the nuclear, defense, medical and other end markets. In the past demand for our solutions in these markets has fluctuated due to a variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control. Our highest volume of sales and cash flows occurs in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year due in large part to the timing of customers’ capital spending programs and increased outages occurring in the fall in our Nuclear & Safety segment. This has caused our results of operations to fluctuate. The nuclear sector has recently seen a resurgence in demand, driven by an overall increase in electricity demand from a number of sources, including electric cars, the anticipated infrastructure build of data centers for Artificial Intelligence (AI), and other sources. This presents both opportunities if the additional electricity demand is supplied by nuclear power plants (“NPPs”) and risks if demand is lower than expected or electricity is produced by other means. This has caused and we expect it will continue to cause our results of operations to fluctuate. See also “Risks Related to Our Business and Industry—Our sales cycles in certain end markets can be long and unpredictable.”

Current wording

Our results of operations may fluctuate significantly and cause our results of operations to fall below expectations. Our financial performance is subject to fluctuations due to varying demand for our products and services across our core markets. Demand for our solutions in these markets has fluctuated due to a variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control. Sales and cash flow typically peak in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year, reflecting customers’ spending cycles and increased outages occurring in the fall in our Nuclear & Safety segment. This has caused our results of operations to fluctuate.

Volatile geopolitical conditions and international conflicts such as the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine have adversely affected and may further adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition. Actual or threatened adverse changes in geopolitical conditions, particularly in countries where we, our customers or our suppliers operate, may adversely impact the cost of, and demand for, our products, solutions and services, our ability to conduct business, and could adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition. Geopolitical tensions, terrorism and military conflicts have impacted, and will continue to impact global trade and global supply chains through import or export restrictions, global sanctions, increased tariffs, foreign exchange rates volatility, interest rates, inflation, labor challenges, credit availability, cash flows and other macroeconomic conditions. We do business with Russian customers both within and outside of Russia and with customers who have contracts with Russian counterparties. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the ensuing build-up of Russian sanctions and other impacts on this region have impacted the global economic environment resulting in fluctuating demand for our products and services, delays or cancellations of customer projects and difficulties in supplying and sourcing products from this and other geographic regions. We have also experienced and may continue to experience delays in revenue recognition, order fulfillment and contract payments due to export controls and other sanctions instituted to date. A number of nuclear power plants are being constructed or are operated by or with the participation of Russian state-owned enterprises. As the situation evolves, there is a growing risk that those Russian state-owned enterprises could become further sanctioned by the United States or the European Union. We also sell medical equipment and related products into Russia for medical and humanitarian applications, however this process has become more complicated, time consulting and uncertain as some of our medical equipment exports require export licenses. We may also be subject to criticism for continuing to sell products to Russia, which could damage our reputation and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. It has become more difficult to transact with Russian parties due to the continued expansion of U.S. and EU sanctions directed at Russia and the United States has announced additional restrictions if the conflict does not end quickly.

Previous wording

In April 2023, one of our Russian customers made a claim against the Company, including liquidated damages for certain delays under the terms of an active project in Hungary in the amount of $19.3 million, and sent an updated claim statement in October 2023 totaling $21 million ($18 million of which accrue daily penalties), subject to a $14 million contractual cap (all amounts converted from Euros to U.S. Dollars). In November 2024, the parties reached a settlement including an agreement to modify the underlying contract, the claim was rescinded, and the parties are now working on implementing the terms of the settlement which is complicated by the current sanctions regime. The modification was accounted for under ASC 606 Revenue Recognition which resulted in an immaterial impact to the Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2024. In June 2023, the same Russian customer made a demand against the Company for the return of all payments received by the Company ($10.2 million) related to a Finland project cancelled in May 2022. In September 2024, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with the customer and agreed to refund €4.4 million which is complicated by the current sanctions regime. The amount is included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2024, and the settlement resulted in an immaterial impact to the Condensed Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Current wording

In April 2023, a Russian customer claimed $19.3 million in liquidated damages for delays on a Hungarian project, later increasing the claim to $21 million, despite a $14 million contractual cap (all amounts converted from Euros to U.S. Dollars). In November 2024, the parties reached a settlement and agreed to modify the contract. The parties are now working on implementing the terms of the settlement which is complicated by the current sanctions regime. The modification was accounted for under ASC 606 Revenue Recognition which resulted in an immaterial impact to the Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Previous wording

We have made and plan to continue to make acquisitions, investments and divestitures that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. As part of our business and growth strategy, we have made and plan to continue to consider acquisitions of, and significant investments in, businesses, products or technologies on a selective basis. We also periodically divest businesses that no longer align with our strategic plans. There can be no assurance that suitable acquisition, investment or divestiture opportunities will be identified or that we will be able to consummate any such transactions on terms and conditions acceptable to us. Additionally, the expected benefits may not materialize, and our existing operations and financial condition could be adversely affected. Our growth through acquisitions and investments is subject to various risks, including competition for attractive or promising businesses or assets, financing needs, and regulatory approvals. The sale of equity or equity-linked securities or issuance of debt to finance any such acquisitions could result in dilution to our stockholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased fixed obligations and could also include covenants or other restrictions that would impede our ability to manage our operations. Divestitures also require significant time and resources, could disrupt our business, may not close on the expected timing or at all, have in the past resulted in additional costs following the transaction and may continue to do so in the future. Potential and actual transactions could also divert management's attention, and could potentially deplete corporate resources and adversely impact the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.

Current wording

We have made and plan to continue to make acquisitions, investments and divestitures that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. We pursue growth by selectively acquiring and investing in, businesses, products or technologies, while also divesting businesses that no longer align with our strategic plans. However, there can be no assurance that suitable opportunities will be identified or that transactions will close on favorable terms. The expected benefits may not materialize, and such activities can introduce risks, including competition for attractive or promising businesses or assets, financing needs, and regulatory approvals. Financing acquisitions through equity or debt may dilute our stockholders or increase financial obligations. Divestitures can be time consuming, disruptive our business, may not close on the expected timing or at all, have in the past resulted in additional costs following the transaction and may continue to do so in the future. Potential and actual transactions could also divert management's attention, and could potentially deplete corporate resources and adversely impact the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

Previous wording

We operate in an industry where the risks associated with radioactive materials and the public perception of nuclear energy could materially and adversely affect the markets in which we operate and increase regulatory requirements and costs that could in turn materially and adversely affect our business. The risks associated with radioactive materials and the public perception of those risks can affect our business. Successful execution of our business model in the nuclear power end market relies on public support for nuclear power. Opposition from various third parties including competitive energy sources, individuals, and organizations can hinder or prevent construction of new nuclear power plants, cause early shutdowns of existing power plants, or create an unfavorable regulatory environment for nuclear technologies all of which could negatively impact our business. Additionally, a nuclear accident or the use of nuclear weapons could have devastating consequences on public sentiment, and lead to stricter regulatory requirements with increased costs and reduced customer demand for our products thereby materially and adversely affecting our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Current wording

We operate in an industry where risks related to radioactive materials and public views on nuclear energy could materially and adversely affect our markets and increase regulatory requirements and costs, negatively impacting our business, results of operations and financial condition. Risks related to radioactive materials and public views on nuclear energy can significantly impact our business. Our success in the nuclear power end market depends on favorable public opinion of nuclear energy. Opposition from various groups or a nuclear incident could lead to unfavorable public opinion, stricter regulations, higher costs and reduced customer demand for our products thereby materially and adversely affecting our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Previous wording

Supply chain issues could cause production interruptions, delays and increased costs for the commodities or components that we use in our operations which may materially and adversely impact our business, results of operations and financial condition. We purchase materials, components, and equipment from third parties for our manufacturing operations including from sole or limited source suppliers due to quality assurance, cost effectiveness, availability, contractual obligations or unique design or technology. Our reliance on our supply chain to secure raw materials, parts, components and subassemblies exposes us to volatility in their prices and availability. Our supply chain is global and suppliers are often located in developing countries which further exposes us to the geopolitical risks. If these suppliers face issues or trade controls with their countries changes, we may struggle to establish or qualify replacement sources of supply quickly or at equivalent costs. Our supply chains could also be disrupted by factors such as supplier capacity constraints, operational or quality issues, bankruptcy or exiting of the business for other reasons, decreased availability of key materials, and external events like natural disasters, pandemics, war, terrorism, tariffs wars and other governmental actions. Such disruptions could cause increased expenses, production interruptions, delays, extended lead times, and inefficiencies, and adversely impact our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We rely on third party suppliers for our manufacturing operations including from sole or limited source suppliers due to quality assurance, cost effectiveness, availability, contractual obligations or unique design or technology. This dependence exposes us to risks like price volatility, supply disruptions, and geopolitical issues as suppliers are often located in developing countries. Suppliers capacity constraints, operational or quality issues, bankruptcies or other business terminations, decreased availability of key materials, and external events like natural disasters, pandemics, war, terrorism, tariffs wars and other governmental actions can make it difficult to find replacements quickly or at similar costs. Such disruptions could cause increased expenses, production interruptions, delays, extended lead times, and inefficiencies, and adversely impact our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Previous wording

Our sales cycles in certain end markets can be long and unpredictable. The sales cycle for our products related to new construction or refurbishment of existing NPPs ranges from 12 to 36 months and occasionally extends up to 60 months or more. In the medical end market, the typical sales cycle varies between 1 to 18 months. Significant resources are invested before orders are secured, with no assurances of a sale. Revenue recognition may be delayed due to the need for customer notices to proceed, certification of successful installation and operation or construction or scheduled outage delays. This lengthy and uncertain sales cycle, coupled with the unpredictable period of time between the placement of an order and our ability to recognize the revenue associated with the order makes revenue predictions difficult, particularly on a quarterly basis, and can cause our operating results to fluctuate significantly.

Current wording

Our sales cycles in certain end markets can be long and unpredictable. The sales cycle for new construction or refurbishment of existing NPPs ranges from 12 to 36 months and occasionally extends up to 60 months or more, while medical end market cycles range from 1 to 18 months. We invest heavily before securing orders, with no guarantee of a sale. Revenue recognition may be delayed due to the need for customer notices to proceed, certification of successful installation and operation, or construction or scheduled outage delays, making revenue predictions difficult, particularly on a quarterly basis, and can cause our operating results to fluctuate significantly.

Previous wording

Many of our products and services involve the detection, identification, measurement or monitoring of radiation and the failure of our products or services to perform to specification could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. Our products and services are technically complex, involve the detection and monitoring of radiation and are crucial components of the safety measures employed with respect to ionizing radiation. Any actual or perceived quality issues or safety failures could adversely affect our business. In the medical end market for example, our products and services are often used to ensure that radiation oncology patients receive accurate doses of radiation. Product failure could lead to the incorrect treatment being administered to a patient, personal injury death or property damage (including environmental contamination). Resulting legal claims and regulatory actions could generate significant costs to us. Additionally, the failure of our products to perform to specifications could adversely affect market perception of the quality and effectiveness of our products and services, which could harm our ability to attract new customers and could cause our existing customers to cease doing business with us. While we have attempted to secure appropriate insurance coverage at a reasonable cost, we may not be fully covered against all risks and we are also subject to significant deductibles. There can be no assurances that insurance policies will continue to be available on commercially acceptable terms or at all. We seek to limit our liability in customer contracts, but these contractual limitations may not always be effective or sufficient in scope in all cases, potentially which could subject us to material and adverse impacts on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Previous wording

Certain of our products require the use of radioactive sources or incorporate radioactive materials, which subject us and our customers to regulations, related costs and potential liabilities for violation of environmental, health and safety laws. The majority of our products are designed to detect, quantify and analyze ionizing radiation and require the use of radioactive sources for testing and calibration. The required radioactive sources, or other sources of ionizing radiation e.g., X-ray machines, are held in our facilities. Our customers hold equivalent sources for ongoing testing and re-calibration that they may have purchased from us or other third-party providers. Certain of our reactor instrumentation and control equipment and systems also incorporate radioactive materials. In all such cases, licenses for radioactive sources and materials or other sources ionizing radiation are provided by the appropriate regulatory authority in the relevant jurisdiction. Our failure, or our customer's failure, to obtain the necessary licenses for radioactive sources or materials required by or incorporated into our products could result in the cancellation, or delay, of purchases by our customers or remedial action by the relevant regulators. While the specific process and criteria for receiving a license differ from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, it generally involves policies and procedures designed to ensure worker, workplace and public safety, including emergency plans; setting forth the proper handling, control and security of radioactive sources or materials on site; detailing any disposal or decommissioning considerations, including financial assurance therefor; and adequately training personnel at the site. Our non-compliance with, or failure to properly implement, such policies and procedures could delay or otherwise preclude us from obtaining the necessary license(s), which could result in the cancellation or delay or purchases by our customers. Licenses impose specific on-going compliance obligations tht typically include requirements to pay periodic license fees, submit periodic compliance reports, and agree to site inspections by regulators. Our failure to comply with any of these on-going obligations could result in the revocation of the applicable license, which could result in the cancellation or delay of purchases by our customers. The improper handling of radioactive materials by us or our customers could result in our direct or secondary liability, including penalties and fines to us. We cannot completely eliminate the risk of accidental contamination or injury from those radioactive materials in our facilities and cannot control the practices of our customers. Related claims for related violations of environmental, health and safety laws could result in substantial damages, be costly and time-consuming to defend and adversely affect the marketability of our products, our reputation, our results of operations and financial condition.

Current wording

Certain of our products require the use of radioactive sources or incorporate radioactive materials, which subjects us and our customers to regulations, related costs and potential liabilities for violation of environmental, health and safety laws. The majority of our products require the use of radioactive sources for testing and calibration, which are held in our facilities and by our customers. Certain of our reactor instrumentation and control equipment and systems also incorporate radioactive materials. In all such cases, licenses for radioactive sources and materials or other sources ionizing radiation are provided by the appropriate regulatory authority in the relevant jurisdiction. Failure, to secure or comply with the necessary licenses could result in purchase cancellations, delays, or regulatory actions. Licensing processes generally require safety policies and procedures, emergency plans, proper handling and disposal procedures and adequately training personnel at the site. Ongoing compliance obligations include paying license fees, submitting reports, and agree to site inspections by regulators. Non-compliance or improper handling of radioactive materials can result in license revocation, which could result in the cancellation or delay of purchases by our customers, penalties, fines and liability for accidents or contamination. Related claims for related violations of environmental, health and safety laws could result in substantial damages, be costly and time-consuming to defend and adversely affect the marketability of our products, our reputation, our results of operations and financial condition.

We enter into fixed-price contracts and contracts with limited pricing escalation and our failure to mitigate certain risks associated with such contracts may result in reduced operating margins. For NPPs new builds, we periodically enter into fixed-price arrangements and contracts with price escalation terms that may not fully cover all possible cost increases. The revenue, cost and gross profit realized on these contracts can vary, sometimes substantially, from original projections due to a variety of factors including inaccurate costs estimation, inflation, currency fluctuations, errors in specifications or designs, other unanticipated technical problems with our products or services which require that we remedy the problem at our cost, supplier failures, customer difficulty in obtaining required governmental permits or approvals or other customer-caused delays, changes in regulations and laws, construction delays of new NPPs and decommissioning of existing NPPs, limited history with new products and customers, contract termination, or other unanticipated circumstances over the contract period. We may experience cost overruns due to these factors resulting in losses or reduced profitability which could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We derive a significant portion of our revenue from international sales and our operations in non-U.S. countries are subject to political, economic, legal, currency and other risks, which could materially and adversely affect us. Revenue generated from outside of North America accounted for approximately 37%, 36%, and 36% of our net sales for the years ended December 31, 2024, December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, respectively. International sales are expected to remain a material percentage of our total net sales in future periods. As a result, our operations are subject to risks associated with global operations and sales, such as currency fluctuations, compliance with complex non-U.S. laws and regulations, new or increased tariffs, obtaining governmental approvals for products that may require certification, localization requirements, export and import licenses, difficulties in collecting accounts receivable, intellectual property protection, staffing and managing international operations, managing local sales agents, distributors and other third parties that assist in selling our products and services, related contract management, restrictions on cross-border transfers of funds, tax consequences, and regional political and economic instability, all of which could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

International sales are expected to remain a material percentage of our total net sales in future periods. Our operations are subject to risks such as currency fluctuations, complex non-U.S. laws and regulations, new or increased tariffs, and the need for government approvals and certifications. We must also manage localization requirements, export/import licenses, and challenges in collecting payments. Additional risks include protecting our intellectual property, staffing and managing international operations, and overseeing third party sales agents and distributors. Contract management, restrictions on cross-border fund transfers and tax consequences add further complexity. Regional political and economic instability can also impact operations. All these factors could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Previous wording

We derive a substantial portion of our revenue from contracts with U.S. governmental customers or their contractors, and such customers may be required to reduce their spending, cancel contracts, initiate audits and investigations, and require unusual or more onerous contractual terms. A substantial portion of our business is driven by government budgets and spending, such as nuclear power plants and medicine, and a substantial portion of our revenue is derived from government customers or their contractors or sub-contractors. Any reduction in the resources or government funding of our customers, including as a result of a government shutdown, the U.S. government's failure to raise the debt ceiling, or other governmental action or order to reduce governmental budgets and spending generally, including in non-U.S. countries, could reduce our sales and impede our ability to generate revenue. Any change in policy regarding capital spending, or reduction, or scrutiny of the capital budgets of U.S. government customers could reduce demand for our solutions and could also result in audits and investigations. In addition, even when our direct customer is not a government entity, we must comply with stringent procurement processes applicable to government contractors and subcontracts, in particular in the United States, European Union and United Kingdom. Furthermore, we have bid, and may in the future submit bids, for government contracts that require government-specific terms such as various levels of security clearances with the Department of Defense or Department of Energy, or that supplies be U.S-made, and similar such measures in other countries, including the European Union and the United Kingdom. Obtaining and maintaining security clearances involves a lengthy process, such clearances may ultimately be denied or revoked and it can also be difficult to identify, recruit and retain employees qualified for security clearances. If the current requirements of the Buy-American Act are revised, it could also impede our ability to sell to the U.S. government. We are subject from time to time to government audits and investigations, and if any such audit or investigation results in an adverse finding to us, we may be subject to financial penalties and debarment or otherwise be unable to continue doing business with the applicable customer. Initiatives to reduce government spending could also drive additional audits and investigations. Failure to secure or retain security clearances, to qualify products as U.S.-made or adverse findings in audits or investigations could result in contract delays, inability to secure new government contracts, contract modification or termination, criminal and civil penalties and fines, and loss of business opportunities, any of which could adversely affect impact our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Current wording

We derive a substantial portion of our U.S. revenue from contracts with U.S. governmental customers or their contractors, and any shutdown or other development where such customers may be required to reduce their spending, cancel contracts, initiate audits and investigations, or require unusual or more onerous contractual terms could materially and adversely affect us. A substantial portion of our business relies on government budgets and spending, such as nuclear power plants and medicine. Revenue is often tied to government customers or their contractors or sub-contractors. Any reduction in government funding, such as a shutdown, failure to raise the debt ceiling, or general budget cuts could reduce our sales and revenue. Changes in capital spending policies or increased scrutiny of government budgets could also reduce demand and could also result in audits and investigations. Even when selling to non-government entities, we must comply with strict procurement processes for government contractors and subcontracts, in particular in the United States. European Union and United Kingdom. Bids for government contracts may require security clearances with the Department of Defense or Department of Energy, or compliance with regulations like the Buy-American Act. Obtaining and maintaining security clearances is a lengthy process and may be denied or revoked. Recruiting qualified employees for these clearances can be difficult. We are subject to government audits and investigations which can result in financial penalties and debarment, financial penalties, contract delays, or loss of business if adverse findings occur. Increased government spending cuts may lead to more audits. Failure to meet requirements (security clearances, product qualifications, audit standards) could result in contract termination, penalties and loss of future business opportunities, any of which could adversely affect impact our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We operate as a entrepreneurial, decentralized company, which may put strain on local business units, which could in turn materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. We operate in multiple countries and are subject to complex and frequently changing business conditions and regulatory environments. Our company has also grown in part through acquisitions of other companies, which can pose integration challenges in the implementation of company-wide initiatives as well as risks of achieving legal compliance across multiple internal business teams. In addition, certain of our business teams are from time to time staffed leanly due to our growth-oriented organizational structure. If we are not able to sufficiently integrate our acquired companies and establish business operations and compliance programs with scale, we may be unable to detect or resolve financial, operational and compliance matters promptly, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our cybersecurity risks are growing due to increasingly aggressive and sophisticated attacks by threat actors, including AI-powered cyberattacks. These include hacking, computer viruses, malicious code, ransomware, social engineering attacks (including phishing and impersonation), denial-of-service attacks and machine learning algorithms and techniques that automate, accelerate or enhance cyberattacks. Our IT systems are subject to constant attempts to gain unauthorized access to, capture, destroy or manipulate confidential information and we have experienced, and may in the future experience, cyberattacks and data breaches. Despite the implementation of information security systems and processes to protect against unauthorized access, data loss and theft (see "Item 1C. Cybersecurity"), there is no guarantee that this governance will be adequate to safeguard against all breaches or misuse of our data and systems. Additionally, certain of our confidential information, and customer data, may be gathered, processed, and stored on third-party networks of vendors or service providers whom we have engaged. While we endeavor to conduct due diligence on those third parties regarding their data security and protection policies and procedures, and the methods they use to safeguard such information, we ultimately do not, and are unable to, control those third parties' efforts to safeguard against data security breaches or misuse of data, or data loss or theft. We maintain private liability insurance intended to help mitigate the financial risks of such incidents, but there can be no guarantee that insurance will be sufficient to cover all losses related to such incidents or available on commercially acceptable terms or at all, and our exposure resulting from any unauthorized access to, or use of our data and systems, could far exceed the limits of our insurance coverage for such events. Any significant data breach or misuse of confidential information may result in significant costs, litigation and regulatory enforcement actions, harm our reputation, and therefore, may have a material adverse impact on our business, reputation, results of operations and financial condition.

If we encounter manufacturing problems, or if our manufacturing facilities do not continue to meet federal, state or international manufacturing standards, we may be required to adapt our manufacturing operations, which would result in delays and lost revenue. Our products require complex manufacturing and assembly involving multiple suppliers and regulatory requirements in different countries, which can face a number of challenges such as limited qualified personnel availability, or higher costs of sourcing components due to trade policy developments. For example, we manufacture whole body monitors exclusively in Ontario, Canada. Any disruption in manufacturing operations at this site due to the higher costs of imported materials and components would be difficult to remediate, in particular it would be difficult to manufacture elsewhere because qualified personnel may not relocate and could not be sourced locally and this could result in production delays, reliance on third parties, and potential negative financial impacts. Additionally, our manufacturing processes are subject to inspections and regulatory requirements, See "Risk Factors—Legal and Regulatory Requirements." Failure to comply could lead to enforcement actions, product recalls, civil or criminal penalties, or other sanctions, penalties, and negative publicity.

Extreme weather events such as winter storms, hurricanes, earthquakes, fires, and tornadoes could disrupt our operations, leading to reduced revenue and increased costs and expenses. For example, some of our facilities are located in areas with earthquake fault lines or in hurricane zones such as our Sun Nuclear factory located in Florida . Depending on the location and severity of such events we could experience business interruptions, destruction of, or damage to, facilities or loss of life, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. We could also be required to incur significant costs to report on, and enhance the resiliency of, our operations, infrastructure and supply chain in order to comply with government regulations addressing climate change. For example, the EU's Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive has resulted, and is likely to continue to result, in an increase to our direct and indirect operational and compliance burdens. These additional expenses will place pressure on profit margins or require us to increase the price of our products and services potentially affecting demand and, consequently, our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Additionally, foreign laws may not adequately protect our intellectual property rights, including due to a lack of adequate remedies and enforcement mechanisms, posing considerable risks as we conduct a substantial portion of our operations and a majority of our sales outside of the United States. Third parties have claimed and may continue to claim that we have infringed upon, misappropriated or misused their proprietary rights. These allegations have led and may continue to lead to litigation, necessitating significant defense costs, even if we are successful. If we are not successful in defending against such claims, we could be required to pay substantial damages, halt the production, use and sale of certain products, invest heavily in developing or acquiring non-infringing technology, cease certain processes, obtain licenses to use the infringed technology or indemnify our customers. Any of these results would materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

If an author or other third party that distributes such open source software were to allege that we had not complied with the conditions of one or more of these licenses, we could face costly legal disputes and significant damages, enjoined from the sale of our products that contained the open source software. Non-compliance could halt product sales and disrupt business operations. These risks could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Any actual or perceived failure to comply with data privacy or security laws and regulations could lead to government enforcement actions, private litigation or adverse publicity and could materially and adversely affect our business. Privacy and data security have become significant issues in many jurisdictions where we conduct business. Due to the global nature of our business, our collection, processing, distribution, and storage of personal information is subject to a variety of evolving laws and regulations. Compliance with these existing and new privacy and data security requirements may increase our cost of doing business and, despite these efforts, there is a risk that we fail to comply and may become subject to government enforcement actions, fines and penalties, litigation and reputational harm. In the United States, these regulations include the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 ("HIPAA") for certain medical data in the US, as well as the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) and California Privacy Rights Act (“CPRA”). Internationally, virtually every jurisdiction in which we operate has established its own data privacy and security legal framework with which we must comply including the comprehensive European Union General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), regulations in individual countries in the EU, including France and Germany, and UK GDPR in the United Kingdom. These laws and regulations and others that may be enacted in the future, may require us to modify our data processing practices and policies, incur substantial compliance-related costs and expenses, divert resources from other initiatives and project and otherwise suffer adverse impacts on our business. Further, they may be inconsistent from one jurisdiction to another, subject to differing interpretations and may be interpreted to conflict with our practices. We cannot ensure that our compliance programs and policies will be sufficient to protect us from claims, proceedings, liability or adverse publicity. Although we endeavor to comply with our policies, we may at times fail to do so or be alleged to have failed to do so.

Portions of our workforce are represented by unions or works councils and are covered by collective bargaining agreements. Labor group representation has led to and may lead in the future to work stoppages that could materially and adversely affect our business. The majority of our EU employees are members of, or are represented by, works councils or trade unions and are covered by collective bargaining agreements, and a small number of our U.S. and U.K. employees are presently unionized. In addition, employees who are not currently members of, or otherwise represented by, labor organizations may seek such membership or representation, as applicable, in the future. We have in the past and may experience in the future work stoppages or other labor disturbances in the future, including in connection with the renegotiation of collective bargaining agreements as they expire, which could adversely affect our business. Union and works council rules may limit our flexibility to respond to changing market conditions and the application of these rules could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition. Additionally, renegotiation of collective bargaining agreements may result in terms that are less favorable to us.

The elimination or any modification of the Price-Anderson Act’s financial protection and indemnification authority could have adverse consequences for our business. The Price-Anderson Act, supports the nuclear services industry by offering financial protection through nuclear liability insurance and broad indemnification for third-party public liability claims arising from a nuclear accident occurring at any commercial NPP in the United States. If the nuclear liability and indemnification authority in the United States or other countries is eliminated or adversely modified in the future, our business could be materially and adversely affected if the owners and operators of NPPs cancel or delay plans to build new plants or curtail the operations of existing plants. Although it is unlikely that the nuclear liability financial protection authority under the Price-Anderson Act would be completely abolished, some aspects of the Act could be changed during future reauthorizations and if the owners and operators of NPPs cancel or delay plans to build new plants or curtail the operations of existing plants as a result of such modifications our business could be adversely affected.

We must also comply with medical device reporting regulations and cGMP in the United States and ISO 13485 certification internationally to maintain clearances. Post-market the FDA and Federal Trade Commission also oversee advertising and promotion of our products to ensure compliance with regulatory clearances and prevent false or misleading claims. The FDA requires that device manufacturers determine if modifications to approved products require new approvals, though the FDA can review these decisions. We cannot ensure that the FDA will agree with our decisions not to seek approvals or clearances or that new approvals will be obtained timely fashion, if at all. Additionally FDA regulations and similar international regulations necessitate product recalls for significant deficiencies or defects in design, manufacture or labeling, which can be voluntary or mandated. Recalls, whether voluntary or mandated, can result from component failures, manufacturing errors or design defects, and can lead to significant expenses, negative publicity, harm to reputation and adverse effects on our business, financial condition and operating results. In these circumstances, we may also be subject to significant enforcement action. If any of these events were to occur, our ability to introduce new or enhanced products would be adversely affected, which in turn would also harm our future growth.

We are subject to federal, state, local and international regulations related to healthcare, the violation of which could result in substantial penalties and harm to our business. Our operations are subject to numerous laws and regulations that affect our interactions with healthcare providers, particularly in sales, marketing and promotional activities. These laws limit financial arrangements with customers, potential customers, marketing consultants and other service providers, impacting how we structure our sales offerings, including discount practices, customer support, product loans, education and training programs, physician consulting, research grants and other service arrangements. Additionally, federal and state “false claims” laws generally prohibit the knowing filing or causing the filing of a false claim, or the knowing use of false statements to obtain payment from government payers. We are also subject to federal and state physician self-referral laws and laws protecting the confidentiality of certain patient health information such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”). Non-compliance with HIPAA can lead to civil and criminal liabilities, adverse publicity, and harm our business and financial condition and impair our ability to attract new customers.

Our indebtedness could adversely affect our financial condition. As of December 31, 2024, we had $694.6 million aggregate principal amount of indebtedness outstanding under our senior secured term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) and there is additional availability under our senior secured revolving facility (the “Revolving Facility” and, together with the Term Loan Facility, the “Credit Facilities”) of up to $90.0 million. In addition, our Credit Facilities bear interest based on variable interest rates which have recently increased and may increase further from time to time in the future. Continued increases in interest rates will increase the cost of servicing our outstanding indebtedness as well incurring new indebtedness and refinancing our outstanding indebtedness, and could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. Our indebtedness could have important consequences to us, such as requiring us to dedicate a significant portion of our cash flows to debt payments, reducing available funds for other needs, increasing vulnerability to economic changes, limiting business flexibility, placing us at a competitive disadvantage, restricting future financing options, and exposing us to variable interest rate risks. If we fail to make scheduled payments on our debt, we risk default, which could lead to lenders terminating their commitments, demanding immediate repayment, or foreclosing on secured assets, potentially resulting in bankruptcy or liquidation.

We may require additional capital to support our growth plans, and such capital may not be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all. This could hamper our growth and adversely affect our business. We intend to continue making significant investments to support our business growth and may require additional funds to address business challenges, enhance our operating infrastructure, or acquire complementary businesses, personnel and technologies. This may necessitate engaging in equity, equity-linked or debt financings. Raising additional funds through future issuances of equity, equity-linked or convertible debt securities, could result in significant dilution for existing stockholders, and any new equity securities could have superior rights, preferences and privileges. Future debt financing might involve offering additional security interests and restrictive covenants, complicating capital activities and business opportunities, including potential acquisitions. Inadequate financing when needed could impair our ability to support our business growth and address challenges, potentially harming our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We are subject to certain ownership and voting power laws and regulations which may limit the ability of stockholders to acquire our Class A common stock and therefore limit demand for our Class A common stock. Under foreign direct investment (FDI) and public interest laws in various jurisdictions such as Germany, Finland, France, and the UK, certain acquisitions of our Class A common stock by investors necessitate government approval. For instance, German FDI law require foreign investors to obtain approval from the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy if they acquire at least 10% of the voting rights of the German company. Similar FDI laws exist in other jurisdictions in which we have substantial operations such as Finland, France, and the U.K., with specific thresholds for government approvals. These restrictions may limit investments and demand for shares of our Class A common stock.

Anti-takeover provisions contained in our Charter and Bylaws, as well as provisions of Delaware law, could impair or delay a takeover attempt. Our Charter and Bylaws contain provisions that may discourage unsolicited takeover proposals that stockholders may consider to be in their best interests. Additionally, Delaware law contains anti-takeover provisions that could delay or prevent a change of control, particularly from one or more large stockholders owning 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock. Other provisions include the board of directors' authority to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval, no cumulative voting in director elections, the Board's exclusive right to fill certain vacancies, prohibitions on stockholder action by written consent and on stockholders calling special meetings, a requirement of a two-thirds vote for certain amendments, and advance notice procedures for stockholder nominations and proposals. These measures complicate the removal of management and may discourage transactions that otherwise could involve payment of a premium over prevailing market prices for our securities.

Our Charter includes forum selection clauses, which could discourage claims or limit stockholders’ ability to make a claim against us, our directors, officers, other employees or stockholders. Our Charter provides that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery in Delaware is the exclusive forum for any stockholder (including a beneficial owner) to bring derivative actions, claims for breach of a fiduciary duty, claims under the DGCL or the Company's governing documents , claims to which the DGCL confers jurisdiction on the Court of Chancery, and other specified claims against the Company or any current or former director, officer or other employee of the Company, to the fullest extent permitted by law and subject to the court having personal jurisdiction over the indispensable parties named as defendants. In addition, our Charter provides that, unless otherwise agreed in writing the federal district courts of the United States are the exclusive forum for any complaint under the Securities Act. However, this does not apply to suits under the Exchange Act or other claims exclusively under U.S. federal jurisdiction. These clauses may discourage claims or limit stockholders’ ability to submit claims in a judicial forum that they find favorable, potentially increasing costs for those seeking to bring claims. If a court finds these clauses inapplicable or unenforceable, it could result in additional costs and negatively impact our business, results of operations and financial condition.

require that they operate in compliance with our policies and procedures, there is no guarantee they will be fully effective, and violations could occur, for which we may be held responsible. Further, the interpretation and enforcement of government regulations in the U.S. has been subject to unpredictable changes. For example, a presidential executive order issued in February 2025 ordered a 180-day FCPA enforcement pause. This has created additional uncertainty regarding how the FCPA will be enforced, in particular with respect to international operations, and it may also have the effect of increasing competitive pressures within our industries.

Our obligations to indemnify our customers for the infringement, misappropriation or other violation by our products of the intellectual property rights of others could require us to pay substantial damages and impose other costs and fees. We currently have in effect, and may in the future enter into, agreements in which we agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless our customers or suppliers from damages and costs that may arise from the infringement, misappropriation or other violation by our products of third-party patents, trademarks or other proprietary rights. Litigation related to such obligations could result in significant expense to us and divert the efforts of our technical and management personnel, whether or not such litigation is ultimately determined in our favor. Our insurance does not cover intellectual property infringement. Any of the foregoing could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
