Playboy, Inc.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Description of Business

Playboy, Inc. (formerly known as PLBY Group, Inc. from February 10, 2021 through June 24, 2025, the “Company”, “we”, “our” or “us”), together with its subsidiaries through which it conducts business, is a global consumer lifestyle company marketing the Playboy brand through a wide range of direct-to-consumer products, Playboy magazine, licensing initiatives, digital subscriptions and content, and online and location-based entertainment, in addition to the sale of direct-to-consumer products through its Honey Birdette brand.

Basis of Presentation

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).

Principles of Consolidation

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and all majority-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company follows a monthly reporting calendar, with its fiscal year ending on December 31.

Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

The interim condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2026, and the interim condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, cash flows, and equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 are unaudited. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature that are necessary for the fair statement of our financial position as of June 30, 2026 and our results of operations and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. The financial data and other financial information disclosed in these notes to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements related to the three and six-month periods are also unaudited. The interim condensed consolidated results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026 or for any future annual or interim period. The interim condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed by us with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 16, 2026.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

We regularly assess these estimates, including, but not limited to, valuation of our trademarks and trade names; valuation of our contingent consideration liabilities; valuation of our income taxes; valuation of any authorized and issued preferred stock; the adequacy of reserves associated with accounts receivable and inventory; unredeemed gift cards and store credits; licensing commission accruals; and assessment of the consolidation of any variable interest entities. We base these estimates on historical experience and on various other market-specific and relevant assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates and such differences could be material to the financial position and results of operations.

Concentrations of Business and Credit Risk

We maintain certain cash balances in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits. We periodically evaluate the credit worthiness of the financial institutions with which we maintain cash deposits. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts and do not believe that there is any material credit risk to our cash. Concentration of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable is limited due to the wide variety of customers to whom our products are sold and/or licensed, with the exception of one licensee as described in the table below.

The following table represents revenue from our customers exceeding 10% of our total revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025:

The following table represents receivables from any individual customer of ours exceeding 10% of our total receivables as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025:

Restricted Cash

At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, our restricted cash primarily related to a cash collateralized letter of credit we maintained in connection with the lease of our Los Angeles headquarters, cash collateralized letters of credit in relation to the lease of office space in Miami Beach, and Honey Birdette’s term deposit in relation to its Sydney office lease.

Liquidity Assessment

As our financial performance continues to improve, so does the overall health of the business. Our net revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 increased by $3.1 million and $4.4 million, compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, we reported net operating income of $3.0 million and $1.3 million, respectively, an improvement from operating losses of $5.9 million and $12.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. As of June 30, 2026, we had approximately $31.9 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents. We continue to expect our capital expenditures and working capital requirements in 2026 to be largely consistent with 2025.

As of June 30, 2026, we were in compliance with the covenants under our senior secured credit agreement (the “A&R Credit Agreement”). However, due to ongoing negative macroeconomic factors and their uncertain impacts on our business, results of operations and cash flows, we could experience material decreases to net sales and operating cash flows and materially higher operating losses, and we could then experience difficulty remaining in compliance with such covenants. Refer to Note 8, Debt, for further details regarding the terms of our A&R Credit Agreement and the term loans thereunder.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Although consequences of ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty could adversely affect our liquidity and capital resources in the future, and cash requirements may fluctuate based on the timing and extent of many factors, such as those discussed above, we believe our existing sources of liquidity will be sufficient to meet our obligations as they become due under the A&R Credit Agreement and our other obligations for at least one year following the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We may seek additional equity or debt financing in the future to satisfy capital requirements, respond to adverse changes in our circumstances or unforeseen events, or fund growth opportunities. However, in the event that additional financing is required from third-party sources, we may not be able to raise it on acceptable terms or at all.

Advertising Costs

We expense advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expenses were $1.2 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, and $2.6 million and $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Gift Card Liabilities

We account for gift cards sold to customers by recording a liability in other current liabilities and accrued expenses in our consolidated balance sheets at the time of sale, which is recognized as revenue when redeemed or when we have determined the likelihood of redemption to be remote, which is referred to as gift card breakage. Depending on the jurisdiction in which we operate, gift cards sold to customers have expiration dates ranging from three tofive years from the date of sale, or they do not expire and may be subject to escheatment rights. Our gift card liability totaled $1.5 million, $1.6 million and $1.7 million as of June 30, 2026, December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Revenues recognized from unredeemed gift card beginning balances were immaterial for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

Variable Interest Entity

A variable interest entity (“VIE”) is a legal entity that does not have sufficient equity at risk to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, or is structured such that its equity holders do not have power over the activities of the entity; have voting rights, as a group, that are not proportionate to their economic interests; or are not exposed to the residual losses or benefits of the entity. At the inception of a contractual agreement, we determine whether we hold a variable interest in a legal entity that is a VIE and whether we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The primary beneficiary has both the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. If we conclude we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE, we consolidate the accounts of that VIE. We regularly review and reconsider previous conclusions regarding whether we hold a variable interest in a potential VIE, the status of an entity as a VIE, and whether we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE.

Long-Lived Assets

The carrying amounts of long-lived assets, including property and equipment, stores, acquired definite-lived intangible assets and right-of-use operating lease assets are periodically reviewed for indicators of impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable or that the useful life is shorter than originally estimated. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded impairment charges of $1.5 million on our right-of-use assets related to our corporate leases and wrote off certain of our property, plant and equipment items in the amount of $0.4 million as a result of our decision to sublease certain of our corporate office space. There wereno impairments of our long-lived assets during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) consists of net income (loss) and other gains and losses affecting stockholders’ equity that, under GAAP, are excluded from net income (loss). Our other comprehensive income represents foreign currency translation adjustments attributable to Honey Birdette’s operations. Refer to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (loss). Total net foreign currency transaction gains, net were $0.4 million and $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and $1.0 million and $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. Under such ASU, public entities must annually disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold (if the effect of those reconciling items is equal to or greater than five percent of the amount computed by multiplying pretax income or loss by the applicable statutory income tax rate). This ASU is effective for all entities that are subject to Topic 740, Income Taxes, for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We adopted this ASU on a retrospective basis as of December 31, 2025, and prior period income tax disclosures have been updated to conform to the new requirements. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements; however, our income tax disclosures have been expanded. Refer to Note 15, Income Taxes, for further information.

In July 2025, FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, which provides simplified guidance on measuring credit losses for current accounts receivable and contract assets. It offers a practical expedient for all entities and an accounting policy election for non-public business entities to ease the process of estimating expected credit losses under ASC 326-20. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025, with early adoption permitted. We adopted ASU 2025-05 effective January 1, 2026, during the interim period ended March 31, 2026, and applied the guidance on a prospective basis. The adoption of ASU 2025‑05 did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Pronouncements Issued but Not Yet Adopted

In November 2024, FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), which requires entities to disaggregate any relevant expense caption presented on the face of the income statement within continuing operations into the following required natural expense categories, as applicable: (1) purchases of inventory, (2) employee compensation, (3) depreciation, (4) intangible asset amortization, and (5) depreciation, depletion, and amortization recognized as part of oil- and gas-producing activities or other depletion expenses. An entity’s share of earnings or losses from investments accounted for under the equity method is not a relevant expense caption that requires disaggregation. Such ASU is effective for all public business entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. In January 2025, FASB issued ASU 2025-01, which revises the effective date of ASU 2024-03 to clarify that all public business entities are required to adopt the guidance in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption of ASU 2024-03 is permitted. We are currently evaluating the anticipated impact of this pronouncement on our disclosures and our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In September 2025, FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other — Internal‑Use Software (Subtopic 350‑40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal‑Use Software. The ASU is intended to modernize and clarify the accounting for internal-use software, including updates to the capitalization guidance that removes references to project stages and replaces them with the concept of a probable-to-complete recognition threshold. ASU 2025-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, and early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual period. We are currently evaluating the anticipated impact of this pronouncement on our disclosures and our consolidated financial statements.

In December 2025, FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270), which is intended to improve the navigability of the required interim disclosures and clarifies when the guidance is applicable, as well as provides additional guidance on what disclosures should be provided in interim reporting periods. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2028. We are currently evaluating the anticipated impact of this pronouncement on our disclosures and our consolidated financial statements.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-12, Codification Improvements, which is intended to address suggestions received from stakeholders regarding Accounting Standards Codifications (“ASC”) and makes other incremental improvements to GAAP. The update represents changes to the ASC that clarify, correct errors in, or make other improvements to a variety of topics that are intended to make it easier to understand and apply. ASU 2025-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Entities will be required to apply the amendments to ASC 260 retrospectively. All other amendments may be applied prospectively or retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the anticipated impact of this pronouncement on our disclosures and our consolidated financial statements.

In May 2026, the FASB issued ASU 2026-02, Environmental Credits and Environmental Credit Obligations (Topic 818) to improve the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure requirements for participants in compliance and voluntary programs that result in the creation of environmental credits and related environmental credit obligations. ASU 2026-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of ASU 2026-02 is permitted. We are currently evaluating the anticipated impact of this pronouncement on our disclosures and our condensed consolidated financial statements.

2. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. We apply the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement:

Level 1 inputs: Based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 inputs: Based on observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 inputs: Based on unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities, and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

For cash equivalents, receivables and certain other current assets and liabilities at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the amounts reported approximate fair value (Level 1) due to their short-term nature. For debt, based upon the terms of our senior secured credit facility, including amendments through 2026, we believe that its carrying value at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 approximates fair value, as our debt is variable-rate debt that reprices to current market rates frequently. Refer to Note 8, Debt, for additional disclosures about our debt. Our debt is classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.

The fair value of our artwork is based on Level 2 inputs, which include market prices obtained from recent auctions of similar works of art, or management’s judgment as to their salable value.

Liabilities Measured and Recorded at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The following table summarizes the fair value of our financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy (in thousands):

There were no transfers of financial instruments between Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 during the periods presented.

Contingent consideration liability relates to the contingent consideration recorded in connection with our 2021 acquisition of GlowUp Digital Inc. (“GlowUp”), which was originally acquired to build our creator platform, and represents the fair value for shares which may still be issued and cash which may be paid to the GlowUp sellers, subject to certain indemnification obligations that remained unsettled as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The entire $0.5 million contingent consideration liability outstanding as of June 30, 2026 was fully settled in July 2026 through the release of common stock and a cash payment to the former GlowUp investors. Refer to Note 19, Subsequent Events, for details.

The fair value of such shares is remeasured each reporting date using the Company’s stock price as of each reporting date. We classified financial liabilities associated with the contingent consideration as Level 3 due to the lack of relevant observable inputs. Changes in assumptions described above could have an impact on the payout of contingent consideration.

The following table provides a roll-forward of the fair value of the liabilities categorized as Level 3 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 (in thousands):

The decrease in the fair value of the contingent consideration for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to the decrease in the price per share of our common stock.

Assets Held for Sale

We began the sale of artwork assets in the fourth quarter of 2023, but they were not fully disposed of as of December 31, 2025, and as such were classified as current assets held for sale in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025.

In the second quarter of 2026, we decided to cease sales of our artwork assets. Accordingly, the entire artwork balance of $3.1 million is no longer classified as held for sale and has been reclassified to a held-and-used long-lived assets within Other Noncurrent Assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2026.

The assumptions used in measuring fair value of our artwork held for sale are considered Level 2 inputs, which include market prices obtained from recent auctions of similar works of art, or management’s judgment as to their salable value. There wereno impairment charges on our artwork held for sale recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2025. We recorded $0.3 million of impairment charges related to our artwork held for sale during the six months ended June 30, 2025. There wereno impairment indicators with respect to our artwork held for sale during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. Our artwork assets ceased being classified as held for sale as of June 30, 2026, as described above.

Assets Measured and Recorded at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

In addition to liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, we record assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Generally, our non-financial instruments, which primarily consist of goodwill, intangible assets, right-of-use assets, and property and equipment, are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are reported at carrying value. However, on a periodic basis, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be fully recoverable (and at least annually for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets), non-financial instruments are assessed for impairment and, if applicable, written-down to and recorded at fair value, considering market participant assumptions.

During the three months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded impairment charges of $1.5 million on our right-of-use assets related to our corporate leases and wrote off certain of our property, plant and equipment items in the amount of $0.4 million as a result of our decision to sublease certain of our corporate office space. There wereno impairment charges to our long-lived and indefinite-lived assets during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026.

Series B Convertible Preferred Stock

The fair value of our only currently authorized preferred stock, which was not issued or outstanding as of June 30, 2026 or December 31, 2025 (our “Series B Convertible Preferred Stock”), was initially measured as of November 13, 2024 (the initial issuance date) and was estimated using a binomial lattice model in a risk-neutral framework (a special case of the income approach). Considering the conversion feature was out-of-the-money as of the issuance date and the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock was redeemable by us without penalty, we valued the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock as a non-convertible callable note. Specifically, our future yield is modeled using the Black-Derman-Toy interest rate model in a risk-neutral framework. For each modeled future yield, the value of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock was calculated incorporating any optimal early prepayment/redemption. The value of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock was then calculated as the probability-weighted present value over all future modeled payoffs. No subsequent fair value remeasurement was required.

Our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, previously classified as mezzanine equity in our condensed consolidated balance sheets, was fully converted as of August 22, 2025, and as a result, all outstanding shares of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock were eliminated. Refer to Note 11, Convertible Preferred Stock, for further information.

3. Revenue Recognition

Contract Balances

Our contract assets relate to our trademark licensing revenue stream, which arrangements are typically long-term and non-cancelable. Contract assets are reclassified to accounts receivable when the right to bill becomes unconditional. Our contract liabilities consist of billings or payments received in advance of revenue recognition and are recognized as revenue when transfer of control to customers has occurred. Contract assets and contract liabilities are netted on a contract-by-contract basis. Contract liabilities are classified as deferred revenue in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

The following table summarizes our contract assets and certain contract liabilities (in thousands):

The following tables provide a roll-forward of our netted contract assets and contract liabilities (in thousands):

Future Performance Obligations

As of June 30, 2026, unrecognized revenue attributable to unsatisfied and partially unsatisfied performance obligations under our long-term contracts was $324.5 million, of which $322.6 million related to trademark licensing, including minimum guaranteed royalties from licensed digital operations per the LMA, $1.7 million pertained to December 31, 2024 deferred revenue balances from our legacy digital subscriptions and products operations and $0.2 million related to direct-to-consumer products.

Unrecognized revenue of the trademark licensing revenue stream is expected to be recognized over the next 14 years, of which 47% is expected to be recognized in the first five years. Such unrecognized revenue does not include variable consideration determined based on the customer’s subsequent sale or usage. Unrecognized revenue of our prior digital subscriptions and products operations, which pertains to related deferred revenue balances as of December 31, 2024, will be recognized over the next four years, of which 59% is expected to be recognized in the first year.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The following table disaggregates revenue by type (in thousands):

The following table disaggregates revenue by point in time versus over time (in thousands):

4. Inventory, Net

As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, our inventory, net, was comprised of merchandise finished goods and is stated at the lower of cost (specific cost and first-in, first-out) and net realizable value. Reserves for slow-moving and obsolete inventory amounted to $3.6 million and $3.3 million as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

8. Debt

The following table sets forth our debt (in thousands):

Term Loan

Refer to Note 9, Debt, within the notes to our audited consolidated financial statements set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 16, 2026, for details regarding our A&R Credit Agreement for periods prior to the second quarter of 2025.

On August 11, 2025, we entered into Amendment No. 5 to the A&R Credit Agreement (the “A&R Fifth Amendment”). The A&R Fifth Amendment revised the definition of Consolidated EBITDA in the A&R Credit Agreement to allow for $2.4 million of non-cash rent expense related to our Miami Beach office lease to be added back when calculating such Consolidated EBITDA for applicable periods. The other terms of the A&R Credit Agreement prior to the A&R Fifth Amendment remained substantively unchanged.

On November 10, 2025, we entered into Amendment No. 6 to the A&R Credit Agreement (the “A&R Sixth Amendment”). The A&R Sixth Amendment, among other things, (i) extended the maturity of the A&R Credit Agreement to May 25, 2028, (ii) provided that the cash interest rate would be reduced by 0.15% or 0.50% in the event of certain prepayments of $25 million and $50 million, respectively (both of which did not occur), and (iii) provided that upon the first such prepayment made on the terms and conditions set forth in the A&R Sixth Amendment, the total net leverage ratio would be set at 9.00:1.00 for the quarter ending June 30, 2026, and step down over time until the ratio reaches 7.25:1.00 for the quarter ending December 31, 2027 and any subsequent quarter. The other terms of the A&R Credit Agreement prior to the A&R Sixth Amendment remained substantively unchanged.

On February 9, 2026, we entered into Amendment No. 7 to the A&R Credit Agreement (the “A&R Seventh Amendment”) to, substantially concurrently with New China JV Initial Closing, amend the terms of the A&R Credit Agreement, to, among other things: (i) permit the New China JV transactions, (ii) permit the contribution of certain intellectual property from us to the New China JV at the second closing pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (as defined in Note 9), and (iii) provide for additional representations, covenants, and mandatory prepayments of our loans under the A&R Credit Agreement (including the entire $45,000,000 Purchase Price and an additional $6.666 million from us). Refer to Note 9, Variable Interest Entity, below for definitions of capitalized terms used in, but not defined in, this paragraph.

We performed an assessment of the A&R Seventh Amendment, on a lender-by-lender basis, and accounted for the transaction as a debt modification. As a result of the A&R Seventh Amendment, fees of $0.3 million were expensed as incurred and recorded in Other income, net in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the first quarter of 2026. Debt issuance costs capitalized as a result of the A&R Seventh Amendment were $0.2 million.

Concurrently with entering into the Repurchase Agreement, defined and described in Note 10, Stockholders’ Equity, we also entered into Amendment No. 8 to the A&R Credit Agreement (the “A&R Eighth Amendment”) to obtain lender consent for the Repurchase Agreement and related transactions. Refer also to Note 17, Related Party Transactions, for additional details. The A&R Eighth Amendment did not modify the pricing, maturity, or financial covenants of the A&R Credit Agreement. Costs incurred in connection with the A&R Eighth Amendment of approximately $0.1 million were recognized as other expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2026.

The stated interest rate of each of Tranche A and Tranche B of the term loans under the A&R Credit Agreement (the “A&R Term Loans”) as of June 30, 2026 was 10.09%. The stated interest rate of each of Tranche A and Tranche B of the A&R Term Loans as of December 31, 2025 was 10.08%. The effective interest rate of Tranche A and Tranche B of the A&R Term Loans as of June 30, 2026 was 2.93% and 5.74%, respectively. The effective interest rate of Tranche A and Tranche B of the A&R Term Loans as of December 31, 2025 was 3.88% and 6.34%, respectively.

We were in compliance with applicable financial covenants under the terms of the A&R Credit Agreement and its amendments as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

The following table sets forth maturities of the principal amount of our A&R Term Loans as of June 30, 2026 (in thousands):

9. Variable Interest Entity

On February 9, 2026, we entered into a share purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with UTG for a new joint venture for the Playboy licensing business in China (the “New China JV”), in which UTG is to ultimately own a 50% interest and operate Playboy’s China licensing business for an aggregate purchase price of $45,000,000 (the “Purchase Price”). Concurrent with the execution of the Purchase Agreement, UTG paid $9,000,000 to us as a signing deposit which was ultimately applied to the Purchase Price as of the New China JV Initial Closing (defined below).

On March 20, 2026 (the “Initial Closing Date”), the initial closing pursuant to the Purchase Agreement (the “New China JV Initial Closing”) occurred, and the New China JV was established. On the Initial Closing Date, the New China JV issued and sold 1,333 class B ordinary shares of the New China JV (“Class B Shares”) to UTG for aggregate consideration of $11,997,000, which was concurrently distributed to us, and we sold and transferred to UTG 334 Class B Shares for aggregate consideration of $3,006,000, for total aggregate consideration to us at the New China JV Initial Closing of $15,003,000. At the second closing under the Purchase Agreement (to occur on or before January 4, 2027), we will sell and transfer to UTG 1,667 Class B Shares for aggregate consideration of $15,003,000, and, at the third closing under the Purchase Agreement (to occur on or before January 4, 2028), we will sell and transfer to UTG 1,666 Class B Shares for aggregate consideration of $14,994,000. The full proceeds from the initial, second, and third closings pursuant to the Purchase Agreement are being used for the repayment of debt. We repaid $15.0 million of our senior secured debt from Purchase Price proceeds in the first quarter of 2026.

As of the Initial Closing Date and June 30, 2026, we owned 83.33% and UTG owned 16.67% of the New China JV. While we retain majority control of the New China JV, UTG manages all operational aspects of Playboy’s licensing business in China, Hong Kong and Macau.

During the three months and six months ended June 30, 2026, we incurred $0.1 million and $2.9 million, respectively, of transaction expenses in connection with the formation of the New China JV, including legal, advisory and other professional fees during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. These costs are included in selling and administrative expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2026.

New China JV Minimum Distributions

Pursuant to the establishment of the New China JV, we are entitled to receive annual minimum distributions of $10,000,000 in 2026, $9,000,000 in 2027 and $8,000,000 in each year from 2028 through and including 2033, in each case, to be paid to us semi-annually. To the extent the New China JV does not have sufficient available cash or earnings to fund such distributions, UTG is contractually obligated to contribute the shortfall amount to the New China JV, which will then distribute such amount to us.

As the New China JV did not have sufficient earnings to fund the entire required dividend distribution due as of the Initial Closing Date, UTG was required to, and did, contribute $2.4 million to the New China JV (the “Noncontrolling Interest Capital Contribution”) pursuant to the terms of the shareholders agreement for the New China JV (the “JV Shareholders Agreement”). The Noncontrolling Interest Capital Contribution of $2.4 million was received from UTG in April 2026.

Brand Support Services Agreement

Under the terms of the BSSA between UTG and us, UTG will pay us for brand support services up to an annual cap (the “Annual Cap”) of (i) $4,000,000 for services provided in the first contract year, (ii) $4,000,000 for services provided in the second contract year, and (iii) $2,000,000 for services provided in the third contract year.

During the first quarter of 2026, we received a $4.0 million advance payment from UTG representing the full Annual Cap for the first contract year under the BSSA. During the second quarter of 2026, we applied a portion of the advance against related brand expenses as they were incurred, recording $1.3 million within cost of sales and $0.3 million within selling and administrative expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. The remaining unapplied advance of $2.4 million was recorded in other current liabilities and accrued expenses on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2026.

Noncontrolling Interests

The New China JV was determined to be a VIE, of which we are the primary beneficiary. As a result of such determination and in accordance with ASC 810, Consolidations, we consolidated the financial results of the New China JV from the Initial Closing Date. There was no New China JV income distribution to UTG in the first quarter of 2026 in conjunction with the terms of the JV Shareholders Agreement. The JV Shareholders Agreement requires UTG to absorb the initial risk of profits shortfalls, creating an economic reality that diverges from the parties’ stated legal ownership percentages. This creates a substantive profit-sharing arrangement where a simple pro-rata allocation of net income or loss would not faithfully depict the underlying economics. Therefore, we allocate net income or loss to the noncontrolling interest using the hypothetical liquidation at book value (the “HLBV”) method. Under the HLBV method, the amount of net income or loss attributable to the noncontrolling interest for each reporting period is determined as the change in the noncontrolling interest holder’s claim on the New China JV’s net assets from the beginning to the end of the period, after adjusting for capital activity and distributions, if any. This claim is calculated by assuming a hypothetical liquidation of the New China JV at its recorded book value as of each balance sheet date, with net assets distributed in accordance with the liquidation and distribution priorities specified in the agreements governing the New China JV.

The New China JV’s distribution priorities entitled us to an initial preferential allocation of an aggregate of $67.0 million through 2033. Until such $67.0 million threshold is fully satisfied, no earnings or hypothetical liquidation proceeds are allocated to the noncontrolling interest. Consequently, in accordance with this distribution waterfall, no value was allocated to the noncontrolling interest for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2026.

Our maximum exposure to loss as a result of our involvement with the New China JV is limited to our investment in the VIE and any unfunded commitments, as UTG is obligated under the JV Shareholders Agreement to fund any shortfall in required minimum distributions. The assets of the New China JV can only be used to settle obligations of the New China JV, and the creditors of the New China JV generally have no recourse to the general credit of the Company.

The following table presents the carrying amounts and classification of the consolidated assets and liabilities of the New China JV as of June 30, 2026, after elimination of intercompany balances (in thousands):

10. Stockholders’ Equity

Common Stock

The holders of our common stock haveone vote for each share of common stock. Common stockholders are entitled to dividends when, as, and if declared by our Board of Directors (the “Board”). As of June 30, 2026, no dividends had been declared by the Board.

On June 16, 2025, our stockholders authorized an increase in the number of authorized shares of common stock of the Company from 150,000,000 to 400,000,000. The increase in our authorized shares of common stock did not impact the number of our issued or outstanding shares of common stock. Our common stock reserved for future issuance consisted of the following as of the dates indicated:

On February 23, 2026, we increased the availability under our previously registered and announced at-the-market offering (the “ATM”) to $200 million worth of our common stock. During the three months ended June 30, 2026, we sold a total of 2,051,498 shares under the ATM for net proceeds of $2.8 million, out of which 56,255 shares were issued in July 2026. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, we sold 3,441,249 shares of our common stock under the ATM for net proceeds of $5.3 million, of which $5.2 million was received during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and $0.1 million was received in July 2026. As of June 30, 2026, we had $194.4 million of remaining capacity under the ATM.

Share Repurchase from Our Primary Lender and Its Affiliates

On June 18, 2026, we entered into a stock repurchase agreement (the “Repurchase Agreement”) with certain sellers, all of whom are affiliates of Fortress Investment Group (“Fortress”), to repurchase an aggregate of 16,589,531 shares of our common stock, for an aggregate purchase price of $17.4 million, payable infour installments through December 31, 2026. During the three months ended June 30, 2026, we repurchased 1,904,762 shares of common stock under the first installment for $2.0 million in cash. We are contractually obligated to settle the remaining installments in cash. Accordingly, a liability was established of $14.8 million at inception within other current liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets, with a corresponding reduction to additional paid-in capital, measured at the present value of the remaining amount payable. The liability is accreted to its settlement amount over the term of the Repurchase Agreement, with the accretion recognized as interest expense. Direct costs of $0.2 million, which were primarily legal fees incurred in connection with the stock repurchase, were recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2026.

We evaluated the Repurchase Agreement under ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. The Repurchase Agreement is a freestanding financial instrument that obligates us to repurchase a fixed number of its own shares at a fixed price of $1.05 per share, with settlement required in cash. Accordingly, we classified the obligation to repurchase the shares remaining under the payment schedule as a liability in accordance with ASC 480-10-25-8, rather than as equity or as an off-balance-sheet commitment. Because both the amount payable and the settlement dates are fixed, the liability is measured at the present value of the amounts to be paid under the remaining installments and is subsequently accreted to its settlement amount through interest expense over the term of the agreement, using the interest rate implicit in the arrangement at inception, in accordance with ASC 480-10-35-3(a). The liability is not remeasured to fair value through earnings. The 1,904,762 shares repurchased and settled at the initial closing under the Repurchase Agreement were returned to the Company as treasury shares. In the event we do not satisfy the remaining repurchase obligations under the Repurchase Agreement, certain of our affiliated stockholders are obligated to satisfy such obligations pursuant to a backstop agreement.

Interest expense recognized in relation to the accretion of the repurchase liability under the Repurchase Agreement for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was immaterial. As of June 30, 2026, the carrying amount of the liability was $14.8 million, representing the present value of the remaining $15.4 million of contractually scheduled installment payments due through December 31, 2026 pursuant to the Repurchase Agreement. Refer to Note 17, Related Party Transactions, for additional information.

11. Convertible Preferred Stock

The Company has authorized 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Of the 5,000,000 authorized preferred shares,28,001 shares are designated as “Series B Convertible Preferred Stock”.

On November 13, 2024, pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, we issued an aggregate of 28,000.00001 shares of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, as consideration in exchange for approximately $6.4 million of Tranche A A&R Term Loans and approximately $58.9 million of Tranche B A&R Term Loans under that certain A&R Credit Agreement. For a more detailed summary of the terms of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, refer to Note 12, Preferred Stock, within the notes to our audited consolidated financial statements set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 16, 2026.

On January 29, 2025, we completed the conversion of 7,000 shares of the 28,000.00001 outstanding shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock into 3,784,688 shares of our common stock, at a conversion price of $1.84956 per share (the “Conversion”), in accordance with the terms of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. As a result of the Conversion, we reduced the number of shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding to 21,000.00001 shares. Holders of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock had their shares converted to common stock on a pro rata basis.

The Conversion resulted in a $7.0 million reduction in the carrying amount of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, and we recognized $0.8 million and $2.3 million of accretion to the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock’s redemption value during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, resulting in a $19.1 million mezzanine equity balance in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2025.

On August 22, 2025, we completed the conversion of all remaining 21,000.00001 outstanding shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock into 12,439,730 shares of our common stock, at a conversion price of $1.74448 per share (the “Second Conversion”), in accordance with the terms of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. As a result of the Second Conversion, we no longer had any shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.

12. Stock-Based Compensation

As of June 30, 2026,28,844,301 shares of our common stock had been authorized for issuance under our 2021 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan, as amended to include an increase of 10,000,000 shares approved by our stockholders on June 16, 2026, and 5,606,175 shares of common stock were originally reserved for issuance under our 2018 Equity Incentive Plan.

Stock Option Activity

There was no stock option activity during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2026.

Restricted Stock Unit Activity

A summary of restricted stock unit (“RSU”) activity under our equity incentive plans is as follows:

The total fair value of RSUs that vested during the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was approximately $5.0 million and $4.4 million, respectively, and approximately $5.2 million and $4.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. We had 920,485 and 2,276,061 outstanding and fully vested RSUs that remained unsettled at June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, all of which are expected to be settled in 2026 and were settled in 2025, respectively. As such, they were excluded from outstanding shares of common stock but were included in weighted-average shares outstanding for the calculation of net loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

Performance Stock Unit Activity

There was no performance-based restricted stock unit (“PSU”) activity under our equity incentive plans during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2026.

Stock-Based Compensation Expense

Stock-based compensation expense under our equity incentive plans during the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was $2.5 million and $1.7 million, respectively, and $3.7 million and $2.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. All stock-based compensation expense was recorded in selling and administrative expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. At June 30, 2026, there wasno unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to unvested stock options or PSUs, as all previously unvested and outstanding stock options and PSUs were fully vested as of June 30, 2026. At June 30, 2026, total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested RSUs was $7.1 million and is expected to be recognized over the remaining weighted-average service period of 1.00 year.

13. Commitments and Contingencies

Leases

Lease cost associated with operating leases for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 is included in the table below. Finance leases and their related costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were immaterial.

On August 11, 2025, through our wholly owned subsidiary, Playboy Enterprises, Inc., we entered into an operating lease (the “Lease”) with RK Rivani LLC (the “Landlord”) for approximately 20,169 square feet of office space in Miami Beach, Florida.

In the second quarter of 2026, we amended the Lease to change the lease commencement date to January 1, 2027 and the expiration date to November 30, 2037. As we did not take possession of the office space as of June 30, 2026, it is not reflected in our condensed consolidated financial statements or in the tables below. The future undiscounted fixed non-cancelable payment obligation pertaining to the Lease is approximately $25.0 million.

On May 14, 2026, we entered into a new operating lease (the “Additional Lease”) with the Landlord for the remainder of the same floor as the Lease, comprising approximately 5,696 square feet, which commenced on May 1, 2026 and expires on November 30, 2037, subject totwo five-year renewal options. In addition to base rent under the Additional Lease, we are responsible for operating expenses and property taxes. In connection with the Additional Lease, the Landlord agreed to provide a TIA of $1.6 million, which reduced the right-of-use asset recognized upon commencement of the Additional Lease and was recorded as a receivable within prepaid expenses and other current assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2026. Refer to Note 5, Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets, for additional information. The future undiscounted lease payments under the Additional Lease are approximately $6.9 million.

During the second quarter of 2026, we terminated certain operating leases for Honey Birdette retail stores prior to their contractual expiration dates. Upon termination of such leases, we derecognized the related right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities of $0.6 million in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2026, and we recognized a net loss of $0.1 million in Other income, net in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026.

As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the weighted-average remaining term of our operating leases was 4.9 years and 3.9 years, respectively, and the weighted-average discount rate used to estimate the net present value of the operating lease liabilities was 9.1% and 8.2%, respectively. Cash payments for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities were $2.1 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, and $4.4 million and $4.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for new operating lease liabilities were $1.6 million and $0.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and $3.4 million and $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Net lease cost recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of operations is summarized in the table below (in thousands):

Maturities of our operating lease liabilities as of June 30, 2026 were as follows (in thousands):

Future annual minimum lease payments that are contractually due to us from our sublease arrangements as of June 30, 2026 were as follows (in thousands):

Legal Contingencies

From time to time, we may have certain contingent liabilities that arise in the ordinary course of our business activities. We accrue a liability for such matters when it is probable that future expenditures will be made and that such expenditures can be reasonably estimated. Significant judgment is required to determine both probability and the estimated amount.

AVS Case

In March 2020, our subsidiary Playboy Enterprises International, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, “PEII”) terminated its license agreement with a licensee, AVS Products, LLC (“AVS”), for AVS’s failure to make required payments to PEII under the agreement, following notice of breach and an opportunity to cure. On February 6, 2021, PEII received a letter from counsel to AVS alleging that the termination of the contract was improper, and that PEII failed to meet its contractual obligations, preventing AVS from fulfilling its obligations under the license agreement.

On February 25, 2021, PEII brought suit against AVS in Los Angeles Superior Court to prevent further unauthorized sales of Playboy-branded products and for disgorgement of unlawfully obtained funds. On March 1, 2021, PEII also brought a claim in arbitration against AVS for outstanding and unpaid license fees. PEII and AVS subsequently agreed that the claims PEII brought in arbitration would be alleged in the Los Angeles Superior Court case instead, and on April 23, 2021, the parties entered into and filed a stipulation to that effect with the court. On May 18, 2021, AVS filed a demurrer, asking for the court to remove an individual defendant and dismiss PEII’s request for a permanent injunction. On June 10, 2021, the court denied AVS’s demurrer. AVS filed an opposition to PEII’s motion for a preliminary injunction to enjoin AVS from continuing to sell or market Playboy-branded products on July 2, 2021, which the court denied on July 28, 2021.

On August 10, 2021, AVS filed a cross-complaint for breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, quantum meruit and declaratory relief. As in its February 2021 letter, AVS alleges its license was wrongfully terminated and that PEII failed to approve AVS’ marketing efforts in a manner that was either timely or that was commensurate with industry practice. AVS is seeking to be excused from having to perform its obligations as a licensee, payment of the value for services rendered by AVS to PEII outside of the license, and damages to be proven at trial. The court heard PEII’s motion for summary judgment on June 6, 2023, and dismissedsix out of 10 of AVS’ causes of action. AVS’ contract-related claims remain to be determined at trial, which is scheduled for March 8, 2027. In addition, PEII filed a complaint against Sunrise Brands based on their participation in AVS’s misconduct, as well as their own direct misconduct. Both cases have been related together by the court and will be tried together, for both pretrial and trial purposes. While the AVS case is a material litigation, we are currently unable to estimate the range of reasonably possible loss, if any, related to this matter. We believe AVS’ remaining claims and allegations are without merit, and we will defend this matter vigorously.

14. Severance Costs

Severance and related employee benefits costs incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were immaterial. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we incurred severance and related employee benefits costs of $0.3 million and $2.6 million, respectively, due to the reduction of headcount as we continued to shift our business to a more capital-light model, including the transition of our digital subscriptions and content operations into a licensing model. Severance costs are recorded in selling and administrative expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of operations, and in other current liabilities and accrued expenses in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The following is a reconciliation of the beginning and ending severance costs balances recorded in other current liabilities and accrued expenses in our condensed consolidated balance sheets (in thousands):

15. Income Taxes

For the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, our provision for income taxes was an expense of $1.1 million and $0.9 million, respectively, and $1.9 million and $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was 84.2% and (13.1)%, respectively, and (102.9)% and (13.5)%, for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 differed from the U.S. statutory federal income tax rate of 21% primarily due to foreign withholding taxes and the release of valuation allowance due to a reduction in net deferred tax liabilities of indefinite lived intangibles. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 differed from the U.S. statutory federal income tax rate of 21% primarily due to foreign withholding taxes and the release of valuation allowance due to a reduction in net deferred tax liabilities of indefinite lived intangibles.

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act of 2025 (the “2025 Tax Act”), enacted on July 4, 2025, made changes to U.S. corporate income taxes, including reinstating the option to claim the full amount of accelerated depreciation deductions on qualified property, with retroactive application beginning January 1, 2025, immediate expensing of domestic research and development costs, with retroactive application beginning January 1, 2025, and the calculation of the limitation for business interest using earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, with retroactive application beginning January 1, 2025. We have evaluated such tax law changes to our consolidated financial position and results of operations for all applicable periods and concluded the 2025 Tax Act does not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

16. Net Income (Loss) Per Share

The following table shows the computation of basic and diluted net income per common share for the three months ended June 30, 2026 (in thousands, except per share amounts):

Share Repurchase from Our Primary Lender and Its Affiliates

As discussed in Note 10, Stockholders’ Equity, we determined that our obligation to repurchase shares under the Repurchase Agreement is a liability under ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. In accordance with ASC 480-10-45-4, all 16,589,531 shares subject to the Repurchase Agreement, including shares not yet repurchased and settled, have been excluded, on a weighted basis, from the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding used to compute basic and diluted income (loss) per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026.

The following outstanding potentially dilutive shares have been excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share due to their anti-dilutive effect:

17. Related Party Transactions

Transactions with Byborg

On November 5, 2024, The Million S.a.r.l (a subsidiary of Byborg) completed the purchase of 14,900,000 shares of our common stock and became a significant stockholder of the Company as of such date. Thus, both The Million S.a.r.l and Byborg, as well as their affiliates, are considered related parties of the Company.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, we recognized $5.0 million and $10.0 million, respectively, of minimum guaranteed royalties as licensing revenue pursuant to the LMA. Operating expenses related to Playboy’s licensed digital businesses totaled $3.0 million and $6.8 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, out of which $1.2 million and $5.0 million were recorded in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, operating expenses of $1.8 million in excess of the $5.0 million of expenses to be covered by us were recorded as a reduction to the Payable to Byborg, net balance as of June 30, 2025, pursuant to the terms of our transition services agreement with Byborg (the “TSA”). As of June 30, 2026, the remittances payable to Byborg totaled $4.0 million. Remittances payable to Byborg pursuant to the LMA as of December 31, 2025 were $2.8 million, the majority of which was paid in the first quarter of 2026. Refer to Note 19, Related Party Transactions, within the notes to our audited consolidated financial statements set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 16, 2026, for additional details regarding the TSA.

Transactions with Our Primary Lender and Its Affiliates

On January 29, 2025, we completed the conversion of 7,000 shares of the 28,000.00001 outstanding shares of our then-outstanding Series B Convertible Preferred Stock into 3,784,688 shares of our common stock, at a conversion price of $1.84956 per share in accordance with the terms of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. On August 22, 2025, we completed the conversion of all remaining 21,000.00001 outstanding shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock into 12,439,730 shares of our common stock, at a conversion price of $1.74448 per share, in accordance with the terms of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. As a result of such conversions, a total of 14,008,313 shares of common stock were issued to affiliates of our primary senior secured lender, and our primary senior secured lender and its affiliates became a related party of the Company. Refer to Note 11, Convertible Preferred Stock, for further information on our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and its conversion resulting in the elimination of all outstanding shares of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock as of August 22, 2025.

Total debt, net of unamortized debt issuance costs and debt premium, attributable to affiliates of our primary senior secured lender under the term loan described in Note 8, Debt, was $141.5 million and $158.0 million as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, out of which $141.5 million and $156.6 million was classified as noncurrent as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Accrued interest attributable to affiliates of our primary senior secured lender is included in other current liabilities and accrued expenses in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively. The interest expense attributable to affiliates of our primary senior secured lender for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 was $2.0 million and $4.3 million, respectively.

On June 18, 2026, we entered into the Repurchase Agreement with certain affiliates of our primary lender, pursuant to which we agreed to repurchase an aggregate of 16,589,531 shares of our common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $17.4 million, payable infour installments through December 31, 2026. During the three months ended June 30, 2026, we repurchased 1,904,762 shares of common stock under the first installment for $2.0 million in cash.

A liability of $14.8 million, representing the present value of the remaining installment obligations, was recorded within other current liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2026. We also incurred $0.2 million of legal fees in connection with the Repurchase Agreement, which were recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in capital in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2026. Upon completion of all installment purchases, the affiliates of our primary lender that are party to the Repurchase Agreement are expected to no longer be affiliates of the Company or significant holders of our common stock. Refer to Note 10, Stockholders’ Equity, for further information about the Repurchase Agreement.

Transactions with Significant Stockholders / Director Affiliates

In connection with the Repurchase Agreement, on June 18, 2026, we entered into a backstop agreement (the “Backstop Agreement”) with Rizvi Master LLC, an affiliate of Rizvi Traverse Management, LLC and our director Suhail Rizvi, and The Million S.à.r.l., an affiliate of Byborg and our director György Gattyán (collectively, the “Backstop Purchasers”). Each of these parties is a significant stockholder of the Company, holding greater than 10% of our outstanding common stock, and each is an affiliate of a member of the Company’s board of directors. Accordingly, the Backstop Agreement constitutes a related party transaction.

Under the Backstop Agreement, the Backstop Purchasers are obligated, on a several and pro rata basis according to their respective percentage obligations (55.4946% for Rizvi Master LLC and 44.5054% for The Million S.à.r.l.), to purchase directly from the sellers, on the same terms and at the same fixed price of $1.05 per share, any shares that we do not purchase under the scheduled installments of the Repurchase Agreement. The backstop commitment excludes the $2.0 million installment paid by us at the initial closing under the Repurchase Agreement and terminates upon the earlier of satisfaction of the commitment, termination of the Repurchase Agreement, ortwelve months from the date of the Backstop Agreement. Each Backstop Purchaser’s participation is subject to a beneficial ownership cap of 29.99% of our outstanding common stock. As consideration for the backstop commitment, we are obligated to pay the backstop purchasers a fee equal to 5.0% of the committed amount that is not used to purchase shares, payable in shares of common stock (valued based on the volume-weighted average price for thefive trading days preceding the date of the Backstop Agreement) or, if such share settlement would cause a backstop purchaser to exceed the ownership cap, in cash. We have concluded that the backstop fee represents a direct and incremental cost of reacquiring our own shares and is accrued as a reduction to additional paid-in capital as the related shares are repurchased. No backstop fee was earned or accrued as of June 30, 2026, as no backstop purchases had occurred and only the excluded closing installment had been funded by us.

The “All Other” column for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 includes amortization of deferred revenue balances related to the previously reported digital subscriptions and content operations that existed as of December 31, 2024 (prior to the LMA effective date of January 1, 2025), which will be recognized over the next four years.

Our Chief Executive Officer is our Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). Segment information is presented in the same manner that our CODM reviews the operating results in assessing performance and allocating resources. Consolidated operating loss is the measure of segment operating loss most consistent with GAAP that is regularly reviewed by our CODM. Total asset information is not included in the tables below as it is not provided to and reviewed by our CODM.

19. Subsequent Events

In July 2026, pursuant to the terms of a 2021 merger agreement for the acquisition of GlowUp Digital Inc. (the “GlowUp Agreement”), we released an aggregate of 249,116 shares of our common stock (based on a price of $23.4624 per share, per the terms of the GlowUp Agreement) to the holders of GlowUp’s equity securities that were accredited investors, which shares were a portion of the acquisition consideration that we held back to cover potential indemnification obligations of such investors. As no indemnification obligations were required to be covered by such holdback, the entirety of the holdback was released. No additional transaction proceeds were paid to us in connection with the release of the acquisition consideration holdback. Related to such indemnity holdback release, we also paid a total of $0.2 million to former investors in GlowUp which were not accredited investors.

As of the date of this filing, the GlowUp indemnity holdback has been released in full, and no further consideration remains payable in connection with the GlowUp acquisition. Refer to Note 2, Fair Value Measurements, for additional details.
