Current report
Cost of revenue decreased by 20.1% from the six months ended June 30, 2025 to the six months ended June 30, 2026. The decrease was driven by a $4.0 million decrease in direct product costs primarily from higher excess and obsolete charges for excess raw materials, inventory write-offs and yield losses in the prior year.

Current report
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by 21.9% from the six months ended June 30, 2025 to the six months ended June 30, 2026.

Total other expense decreased 2.6% from the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2026. The decrease was driven by a $3.0 million decrease in interest expense, which was primarily due to the voluntary prepayment of principal on the Term Loan in February 2026, the repayment of all amounts outstanding under our prior credit agreement, and the termination of the prior credit agreement and the related term loan facility and revolving credit facility as part of the June 2026 debt refinancing, and the $3.9 million decrease in other expense, which includes $4.1 million from prior year adjustments to the indemnification asset recorded in connection with the acquisition of MyChem, partially offset by immaterial foreign exchange gains and losses.

Voluntary Prepayments on Term Loan
Previous report
In February 2026, we voluntarily pre-paid, using cash on hand, $50.0 million of aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan. There were no prepayment penalties associated with this prepayment of principal. As a result of the prepayment, we wrote off a portion of pre-existing deferred financing costs associated with the Term Loan.
Previous report
We expect that our selling, general and administrative expenses will decrease year-over-year in future periods, as a result of the implementation of the 2025 Corporate Realignment Plan.
Previous report
We expect our research and development costs will remain relatively consistent year-over-year in future periods, as a result of ongoing research and development initiatives.

Total revenue was $65.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $46.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, representing an increase of $19.0 million, or 40.5%.
Previous report
We did not make any cash distributions during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 for tax liabilities to MLSH 1, which is controlled by investment entities affiliated with GTCR and is the only holder of LLC Units other than us and our wholly owned subsidiaries.
Previous report
We recognize the amount of TRA payments expected to be paid within the next 12 months and classify this amount as current. As of March 31, 2026, there was no current liability outstanding under the TRA.
Previous report
As of December 31, 2023, the Company had derecognized the remaining non-current liability under the TRA after concluding it was not probable that the Company will be able to realize the remaining tax benefits based on estimates of future taxable income. There have been no changes to our position set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. The impact of any activity for the year ending December 31, 2026, including any LLC Unit exchanges or changes to our estimated U.S. federal, state or local income tax rates, will be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2026 when such impacts are determinable. The estimation of liability under the TRA is by its nature imprecise and subject to significant assumptions regarding the amount, character, and timing of the taxable income in the future. If the Company concludes in a future period that the tax benefits are more likely than not to be realized and releases its valuation allowance, the corresponding TRA liability amounts may be considered probable at that time and recorded on the consolidated balance sheet and within earnings.
Previous report
During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, no payments were made to MLSH 1 or MLSH 2 pursuant to the TRA.
Previous report

Previous report
During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, we determined that making a payment under the non-current portion of the TRA was not probable under Accounting Standards Codification 450 - Contingencies since a valuation allowance has been recorded against our deferred tax assets, and we do not believe we will generate sufficient future taxable income to utilize related tax benefits and result in a payment under the TRA. There have been no changes to our position set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. The impact of any activity for the year ending December 31, 2026, including any LLC Unit exchanges or changes to our estimated U.S. federal, state and local income tax rates, will be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2026 when such impacts are determinable.
