Gross profit was flat for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024.

The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement amends and restates the Credit Agreement to, among other things, (i) establish revolving credit facility commitments in an aggregate principal amount of $35.3 million (ii) establish term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $85.0 million, (iii) adjust the pricing stepdowns related to the interest rate on the Term SOFR Loans, Base Rate Loans and BBSY Loans (each as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement) after delivery of a compliance certificate for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025 and (iv) resize baskets within certain negative covenants based on a Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement) of $35.2 million.

Current report

The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement extends the maturity date of (i) the revolving credit facility commitments to October 14, 2028 and (ii) the term loans to October 14, 2028.

Previous wording

The macroeconomic environment in which we operate impacts consumer behavior and may have a significant impact on our business. While positive conditions in the economy generally promote customer spending on our sites and in our stores, any economic weakness can result in a reduction of customer spending and have a significant negative impact on our results of operations. Specifically, many of our products may be viewed as discretionary items rather than necessities. Consequently, our results of operations tend to be sensitive to changes in the macroeconomic environment that impact consumer discretionary spending. Macroeconomic factors that could cause significant negative impacts on our results of operations include, but are not limited to: inflationary pressures on consumers globally and on our supply chain; elevated interest rates; employment rates; business conditions; changes in the housing market; changes in stock markets; adverse developments affecting the financial services industry; the availability of credit, both for us and for our customers; foreign currency exchange rates; fuel, energy and raw materials costs; supply chain challenges; wars and geopolitical tensions; and the effects of tariffs and other trade policies. For example, in the first half of 2025, the U.S. administration increased, at times, the aggregate tariff and duty levels for imported Chinese goods to greater than 150%, but have come down to the range of 50-60%. As of June 30, 2025, the U.S. administration and Chinese officials continue to work towards a trade deal, but additional tariff and/or duty increases could be imposed as trade tensions between the two countries evolve. Tariffs on Chinese goods have an acute effect on our cost of goods sold, as a substantial majority of our products are imported from China. While we are in the process of evaluating and enacting measures to mitigate the effect of the tariffs and duties on our results of operations, including sourcing products from sources located outside of China and proportional increases to the prices of our products, there are countervailing considerations that may prevent us from fully mitigating the effects, such as the cost of goods from sources located outside of China and customer attraction and retention considerations. Further, sourcing products from new suppliers might result in significant expenses, including brokerage fees, the purchase prices for designs owned by our existing suppliers and termination fees for our arrangements with our existing suppliers, and may result in higher costs of goods, all of which could reduce our gross margin and otherwise materially and adversely affect our results of operations. Additionally, the products we purchase from our new suppliers may be of lesser quality as compared to the products we purchase from our current suppliers and shipping times may be longer, each of which may have a material and adverse effect on our operations and, therefore, our results of opera…

Previous wording

In connection with our initial public offering of common stock in September 2021 (the “IPO”), we entered into a senior secured credit facility comprised of a $100.0 million term loan and a $50.0 million revolving line of credit, with an option of up to $50.0 million in an additional term loan through an accordion provision. We used borrowings under this credit facility, together with a portion of the proceeds from the IPO, to repay our previous debt in full. As of June 30, 2025, we owed a combined $84.9 million in term loan and accordion borrowings, as well as $24.3 million borrowed under the revolving line of credit. The term loan requires us to make amortized annual payments of 5.0% during the first and second years, 7.5% during the third and fourth years and 10.0% during the fifth year with the balance of the loan due at maturity. Borrowings under the term loan accrue interest at Term SOFR, as defined in the credit agreement for the senior secured credit facility (the “Credit Agreement”), plus an applicable margin dependent upon our net leverage ratio, as defined in the Credit Agreement. The revolving line of credit, when used, also accrues interest at Term SOFR plus an applicable margin dependent upon our net leverage ratio. The highest interest rates under the Credit Agreement for both the term loan and the revolving line of credit occur at a net leverage ratio of greater than 2.75x, yielding an interest rate of a benchmark rate plus 3.25%. The accordion provision allows us to borrow additional amounts of term loan at terms to be agreed upon at the time of issuance, but on substantially the same basis as the original term loan. As of June 30, 2025, principal payments of our term loan and accordion for the next twelve months are anticipated to total $7.7 million.

Previous wording

As discussed in the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2024 Form 10-K, significant judgment and estimates are required in assessing impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, including identifying whether events or changes in circumstances require an impairment assessment, estimating future cash flows and determining appropriate discount rates. Our estimates of fair value are based on assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates. In June 2025, due to a continued period of uncertain trade policy and the impact of increased tariffs and duties between countries, we revised our forecasts for each of our reporting units. These revisions and a continued decrease in our stock price were identified as triggering events and a subsequent quantitative test concluded that the fair value of each of our reporting units exceeded their carrying values as of June 30, 2025. As of the testing date, the estimated fair value of the mnml reporting unit exceeded the carrying value by 4.6% and the carrying value of the related goodwill was $30.0 million. Holding all other assumptions used in the fair value measurement of the mnml reporting unit constant, a 60 basis points increase in the selected discount rate would result in impairment.
