Organization and General
On November 20, 2024, Perimeter Solutions, SA, a public limited liability company duly incorporated and validly existing under the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, having its registered office at 28, Boulevard F.W. Raiffeisen, L-2411 Luxembourg, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, and registered with the Luxembourg Trade and Companies Register(Registre de Commerce et des Sociétés, Luxembourg) under number B 256.548 (“Perimeter Luxembourg”), consummated the conversion (the “Redomiciliation Transaction” or “domestication”) of Perimeter Luxembourg into a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware, after which Perimeter Luxembourg continues as an entity under the name “Perimeter Solutions, Inc.” (“we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”). The domestication was completed in accordance with articles 100-2, 100-3 and 1300-2 of the Luxembourg law dated August 10, 1915 on commercial companies, as amended (the “Luxembourg Company Law”), the procedures of article 450-3 et seq. of the Luxembourg Company Law, and the domestication procedures of Section 388 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”), pursuant to which the Company continued its legal existence in Delaware as if Perimeter Luxembourg had originally been incorporated under Delaware law.
Upon consummation of the Redomiciliation Transaction, each of Perimeter Luxembourg’s issued (i) ordinary shares, with a nominal value of$1.00 per share (the “Lux Ordinary Shares”) and (ii) redeemable preferred shares, with a nominal value of$10.00 each (the “Lux Preferred Shares”), automatically converted by operation of law on aone-for-one basis into (i) shares of common stock of the Company, par value$0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and (ii) shares of preferred stock of the Company, par value$0.0001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”), respectively, in accordance with the terms of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (the “Certificate of Incorporation”).
The Common Stock continues to be listed for trading under symbol “PRM” on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”), which is the same trading symbol as the Lux Ordinary Shares traded under prior to the Redomiciliation Transaction. As a result of the Redomiciliation Transaction, the Company became the successor issuer to Perimeter Luxembourg pursuant to Rule 12g-3(a) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The consolidated financial statements for the prior periods include certain reclassifications that were made to conform to the current period presentation.
- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned, after elimination of intercompany transactions and balances.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates made by management in connection with the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the fair value of purchase consideration and assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination, stock options, and founder advisory fees. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in banks. For purposes of reporting cash and cash equivalents, the Company considers all deposits with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company deposits cash with financial institutions that management believes is of high credit quality, and cash balances in bank accounts, at times, exceeds federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses from maintaining cash balances in excess of such limits.
Short-term Investments
Short-term investments represent investments in certificate of deposits with remaining maturities of one year or less, but greater than three months, at the time of acquisition and are stated at carrying value, which approximates estimated fair value. Interest on short-term investments is recorded and is presented as a component of interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts receivable are stated at the amounts due from customers for products or services provided. The Company evaluates the collectability of its accounts receivable based on management's estimate for expected credit losses for outstanding accounts receivables. The Company determines expected credit losses based upon a number of factors, including historical experience, the likelihood of payment from its customers, and any other known specific factors associated with its customers. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses inherent in its accounts receivable and reassess the adequacy of the allowance each reporting period. Account balances are charged-off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the allowance for doubtful accounts was immaterial.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined using the the weighted-average cost method, or net realizable value. The Company evaluates inventories periodically during each reporting period for obsolete, excess, or slow-moving products and will record any adjustment, if necessary, to report these items at an estimated net realizable value.
Property, Plant and Equipment, Net
Property, plant and equipment acquired in business combinations are recorded at fair value at the date of acquisition. All other property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the consolidated balance sheets and the resulting gain or loss is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income in the period realized. Costs of maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:
| Years | |
| Buildings | 30–40 Years |
|---|---|
| Furniture and fixtures | 1–8 Years |
| Machinery and equipment | 1–26 Years |
| Vehicles | 1–8 Years |
| Leasehold improvements | Shorter of remaining lease term or estimated useful life |
Business Combinations
The Company accounts for its business combinations using the acquisition accounting method, which requires it to determine the fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including any contingent consideration, and record any residual purchase price as goodwill. The Company records assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their respective fair value at the date of acquisition. Management uses its best estimates and assumptions to value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date. Such estimates are inherently uncertain and may be subject to refinement. If the initial accounting for the business combination has not been completed by the end of the reporting period in which the business combination occurs, provisional amounts are reported to present information about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. During the measurement period of up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company records adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill, to the extent such information was not available to the Company at the acquisition date to determine such amounts.
Accounting for business combinations requires the Company to make significant estimates and assumptions at the acquisition date, including estimates of the fair value of acquired inventory, property and equipment, identifiable intangible assets, contractual obligations assumed, preacquisition contingencies, where applicable, and equity issued. Significant assumptions relevant to the determination of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed include, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows, discount rates, royalty rates, and other assumptions. The approach to valuing the initial contingent consideration associated with the purchase price also uses similar unobservable factors such as projected revenues and expenses over the term of the contingent earn-out period, discounted for the period over which the initial contingent consideration is measured, and relevant volatility rates. Based upon these assumptions, the initial contingent consideration is then valued using a Monte Carlo simulation.
All acquisition-related costs, other than the costs to issue debt or equity securities, are accounted for as expenses in the period in which they are incurred. Changes in the fair value of contingent consideration arrangements that are not measurement period adjustments are recognized in earnings.
Goodwill
Goodwill is deemed to have an indefinite life and is assessed for impairment annually at the reporting unit level or more frequently when events orcircumstances occur that indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit or an intangible asset is less than its carrying value. The Company conducts an annual impairment test on October 1st each year. Depending on the facts and circumstances, the impairment test for goodwill can be performed using either a qualitative or quantitative approach. The qualitative approach consists of a weighting of several qualitative factors, including, but not limited to, macroeconomic conditions (including changes in interest rates and discount rates), industry and market considerations, the recent and projected financial performance of the reporting unit, changes in the Company's enterprise market value and other relevant factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. This assessment can require significant judgments, including the estimation of future cash flows and an assessment of market and industry dependent risks. If the assessment of all relevant qualitative factors indicates that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is greater than its carrying amount, a quantitative goodwill impairment test is not necessary. If the assessment of all relevant qualitative factors indicates that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the Company will perform a quantitative goodwill impairment test. The Company has the unconditional option to bypass the qualitative assessment for any reporting unit in any period and proceed directly to performing a quantitative goodwill impairment assessment. The Company performed a qualitative analysis on October 1, 2025, the date of the Company’s annual impairment assessment, and concluded that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the Company’s reporting units are greater than the respective carrying amounts. There wasno impairment of goodwill during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, or 2023.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, which vary depending on the type of intangible assets. Costs to maintain and extend intangible assets are expensed as incurred. In determining the estimated useful lives of definite-lived intangible assets, the Company considers the nature, competitive position, life cycle position and historical and expected future operating cash flows of each acquired assets, as well as its commitment to support these assets through continued investment and legal infringement protection.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets include acquired property, plant, and equipment and intangible assets subject to amortization. The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets for possible impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be fully recoverable. Such events and changes may include significant changes in performance relative to expected operating results, significant changes in asset use, significant negative industry or economic trends, and changes in the Company’s business strategy. The Company determines the recoverability of such assets by comparing an asset’s respective carrying value to estimates of the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from its asset group. If such review indicates that the carrying amount of long-lived assets is not recoverable, the carrying amount of such assets is reduced to fair value. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company determined there was an impairment in a long-lived technology asset. See Note 5, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” for additional information related to the impairment of long-lived assets. There were no impairments of long-lived assets during the years ended December 31, 2025 or 2024.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when it transfers control of promised goods and services to the customer. Revenue is recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration a company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. A company also is required to disclose sufficient quantitative and qualitative information to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers.
The Company derives its revenue from contracts with customers, which comprise of following principal activities as described:
Full-service air base fire retardant includes sales from the supply and service of fire retardant to designated air tanker bases. The Company provides fire retardant product, the related equipment, and service personnel who operate the related equipment at the designated air tanker bases for the period specified in the contract with respect to each designated air tanker base. Product revenues are recognized at the point in time when product is shipped and control is transferred to the customer, typically when the product is consumed by the customer. The component of service revenue is recognized ratably over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the services. The Company has entered into full-service contracts with the U.S. Forest Service (“USFS”) and the state of California. These contracts are between Perimeter Solutions and the USFS and/or the state of California for supply and service of long-term fire retardant to the designated air tanker bases of certain Government agencies. The revenue derived from these contracts is comprised of multiple performance obligations, namely product sales, providing operations and maintenance personnel services, leasing of specified equipment, and expedited delivery capabilities. The performance obligation for product sales is satisfied at a point in time, while the performance obligations for services and leases are a “stand-ready obligation”and the revenue is recognized straight-line over the service period. Control of a product is deemed to be transferred to the customer upon shipment or delivery.
Fire retardant, suppressant, and related equipment includes domestic and international sales of fire retardant and fire suppressant products. Product revenues are recognized at the point in time when control of the product is transferred to the customer which is upon shipment or delivery of the product to the customer, depending on the underlying contract terms.
Specialty Products includes domestic and international sales of specialty chemical and industrials products by the Company’s entities in the U.S. and Germany. Product revenues are recognized at the point in time when control of the product is transferred to the customer which is upon shipment or delivery of the product to the customer, depending on the underlying contract terms.
The Company uses the policy election to account for the shipping and handling activities as activities to fulfill the Company’s promise to transfer goods to the customer, rather than as a performance obligation. Accordingly, the costs of the shipping and handling activities are accrued for at the time of shipment.
The transaction price of a contract, or the amount the Company expects to receive upon satisfaction of all performance obligations, is determined by reference to the contract’s terms and includes adjustments, if applicable, for any variable consideration, such as sales incentives, wherever these adjustments are material. For full service contracts the transaction price is variable and is based upon gallons of product consumed by the customer during the service period i.e., mobilization period, which typically lasts during May through September. The Company includes the estimated amount of variable consideration in transaction price that it expects to receive to the extent it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur.
Sales and other taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction, which are collected by the Company from a customer, are excluded from revenue.
Payment terms vary by contract and sales to customers are deemed collectible at the time of sale based on customer history, prior credit checks, and controls around customer credit limits. The Company does provide for the right to return; however, most of the product is used at the point of purchase and returns are minimal. Therefore, there is no estimated obligation for returns. Standard terms of delivery are generally included in the Company's contracts of sale, order confirmation documents and invoices.
Cost to Obtain Contract
Incremental costs of obtaining a contract include only those costs that are directly related to the acquisition of contracts, including sales commissions, and that would not have been incurred if the contract had not been obtained. The Company recognizes an asset for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer if it is expected that the economic benefit and amortization period will be longer thanone year. Costs to obtain contracts were not material in the periods presented.
Deferred Revenue
Deferred revenue represents billings under non-cancelable contracts before the related product or service is transferred to the customer. The portion of deferred revenue that is anticipated to be recognized as revenue during the succeeding twelve-month period is recorded as deferred revenue and the remaining portion is recorded as deferred revenue, non-current.
Certain contracts entered by the Company have a duration ofone year or more. Any billings made to the customer during the financial year for which the related product or service is yet to be delivered on the cutoff date, i.e., December 31, is recognized as deferred revenue. Deferred revenue was immaterial as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
For full-service fire-retardant contracts, the Company identifies the fire-retardant product and the services as separate units of account. Substantially all performance obligations are satisfied by the end of the annual financial reporting period and the allocation of transaction price to each performance obligation does not have an impact on the recognition and measurement of revenues for the annual reporting period. There were no contract assets, contract obligations other than deferred revenue, or material rights as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Deferred Financing Fees
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, unamortized debt issue costs of $5.9 million and $7.2 million, respectively, for the Company's Senior Notes were carried as a contra liability and are amortized over the term of the related debt using the effective interest method. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, unamortized deferred financing costs of $2.5 million and $0.8 million, respectively, for the Company’sfive-year revolving credit facility (the “Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility”) were carried as a long-term asset and were amortized on a straight-line basis into interest expense over the term of the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility. Amortization of deferred financing fees was $1.3 million, $1.3 million and $1.2 million for Senior Notes and $0.6 million, $0.5 million and $0.5 million for the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and is presented as a component of interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset-and-liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities, as well as loss and tax credit carryforwards and their respective tax bases measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
A valuation allowance is established if, based upon the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company considers all available evidence, both positive and negative, including historical levels of income, expectations and risks associated with estimates of future taxable income in assessing the need for a valuation allowance.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are presented as non-current on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
The Company’s tax positions are subject to income tax audits by multiple tax jurisdictions throughout the world. The Company recognizes the tax benefit of an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not the position will be sustainable upon examination by the taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes. This evaluation is based on all available evidence and assumes that the tax authorities have full knowledge of all relevant information concerning the tax position. The tax benefit recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit which is more likely than not (greater than 50% likely) to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the taxing authority. The Company recognizes interest accrued and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense (benefit). The Company makes adjustments to these reserves in accordance with the income tax guidance when facts and circumstances change, such as the closing of a tax audit or the refinement of an estimate. To the extent that the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts recorded, such differences will affect the provision for income taxes in the period in which such determination is made and could have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition and operating results.
Leases
The Company leases certain manufacturing facilities, real estate, vehicles, and field equipment. Such leases, some of which are noncancellable and, in many cases, include renewals, expire at various dates. Such options to renew are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. The Company’s lease agreements typically do not contain any significant residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants, and payments within certain lease agreements are adjusted periodically for changes in an index or rate. The Company does not currently sublease any of its ROU assets.
The Company elects to apply the short-term lease exception for lease arrangements with a lease term of 12 months or less at commencement. The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for as a single lease component. Lease terms used to compute the present value of lease payments do not include any option to extend, renew, or terminate the lease that the Company is not reasonably certain to exercise upon the lease inception. Accordingly, lease ROU assets and liabilities do not include leases with an initial lease term of 12 months or less.
The Company determines if an arrangement is an operating lease or a finance lease at inception. For both types of leases ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of the lease based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option.
Operating lease expenses are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease payments, which cannot be determined at the lease commencement date, are not included in ROU assets or lease liabilities and are expensed as incurred. Finance lease ROU assets are amortized over the estimated useful life of the underlying asset with expenses presented in cost of goods sold in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income. Finance lease liabilities are subsequently remeasured by increasing the liability to reflect interest accrued during the period and decreasing the liability to reflect payments made during the period. Interest expense incurred on finance leases is included in interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income.
Cash paid for operating leases and interest paid for finance leases are included in the consolidated statements of cash flows as operating activities and cash paid for finance lease principal is included in the financing activities section of the consolidated statements of cash flows.
As most leases do not have readily determinable implicit rates, the Company estimated the incremental borrowing rates for its future lease payments based on prevailing financial market conditions at the later of date of adoption or lease commencement, credit analysis of comparable companies and management judgments to determine the present values of its lease payments. The Company also applied the portfolio approach to account for leases with similar terms.
Contingencies
Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines, penalties, and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. When a single amount cannot be reasonably estimated but the cost can be estimated within a range, the Company accrues the minimum amount. Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred.
Foreign Currencies
Prior to the Redomiciliation Transaction, the functional and reporting currencies for all Luxembourg entities were in U.S. dollars. The functional currency for the Company’s remaining non-U.S. subsidiaries is the local currency. The assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate in effect as of the balance sheet date except for non-monetary assets and liabilities, which are measured at historical exchange rates and revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates for each respective reporting period. Adjustments resulting from translating local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are reflected in accumulated other comprehensive loss in stockholders’ equity. The Company does not recognize deferred taxes on translation adjustments from its investments in foreign subsidiaries that are essentially permanent in duration.
Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are remeasured based on the exchange rates at the time of the transaction. Foreign currency gains and losses arising primarily from changes in exchange rates on foreign currency denominated intercompany loans and other intercompany transactions and balances between foreign locations are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income. Realized and unrealized gains (losses) resulting from transactions conducted in foreign currencies for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 were $3.2 million, $(2.6) million and $1.4 million, respectively.
Stock-Based Compensation
Performance stock options
Theperformance-based non-qualified stock options ("PBNQSO") granted to employees and non-employees are subject to performance conditions such that the number of awards that ultimately vest depends on the calculation ofannual operational performance per diluted share (“AOP”) during the performance period compared to targets established at the award date.
The Company recognizes compensation costs related to PBNQSO granted to employees and non-employees based on the estimated fair value of the awards on the date of grant using the Hull-White model as this model considers the future movement in the price of the Company’s shares of Common Stock and option holders’ behavior with respect to option exercises.
The Hull-White model requires the Company to make assumptions and judgments about the variables used in the calculation, including the sub-optimal exercise factor, drift rate, the blended volatility based on the Company’s trading history of its Common Stock, risk-free interest rate, and expected dividends. The Company’s sub-optimal exercise factor of 2.5 represents the expectation that the option will be exercised when the share price reaches 2.5 times the option’s exercise price. The Company’s drift rate represents the risk-free rate less the dividend yield. Changes in assumptions made on the risk-free interest rate and expected volatility can materially impact the estimate of fair value and ultimately how much stock-based compensation expense is recognized.
The Company records forfeitures as they are incurred. The fair value of PBNQSO is expensed proportionately for each tranche over the applicable service period in which the performance conditions are deemed probable of achievement. The Company satisfies stock option exercises and the settlement of other equity awards through the issuance of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock.
In the event that the PBNQSO do not meet the performance condition, the PBNQSO contain an equity sweep provision which allow for vesting if the market price of the Company’s Common Stock exceeds an amount equal to (i)two times the exercise price less (b) any dividends per share paid after the applicable grant date, on any 60 trading days within any 12-month period commencing on or after the first day of the third performance year covered by the 5-Year Option and ending on the last day of the fifth performance year covered by the 5-Year Option.
Restricted stock units
Restricted stock units are valued using the market price of the Company's Common Stock on the grant date. The grant date fair value of the restricted stock units is expensed on a straight-line basis over the applicable vesting period.
Founder Advisory Fees
An advisory agreement was entered into on December 12, 2019 by EverArc ("Founder Advisory Agreement") with EverArc Founders, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("EverArc Founder Entity"), which was assumed by the Company in 2021. The EverArc Founder Entity, for the services provided to the Company, including strategic and capital allocation advice, will be entitled to receive both a fixed amount (the “Fixed Annual Advisory Amount”) and a variable amount (the “Variable Annual Advisory Amount,” each an “Advisory Amount” and collectively, the “Advisory Amounts”)until the years ending December 31, 2027 and 2031, respectively. Under the Founder Advisory Agreement, at the election of the EverArc Founder Entity, at least 50% of the Advisory Amounts will be paid in Common Stock andremainder in cash. The Advisory Amounts to be paid in Common Stock is recorded within stockholders’ equity at grant date fair value and the Advisory Amounts to be paid in cash is recorded as a liability in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. For the Advisory Amounts classified as liabilities, the Company will remeasure the fair value at each reporting date. The Fixed Annual Advisory Amount will be equal to 2,357,061 shares of Common Stock (1.5% of 157,137,410 shares outstanding as of November 9, 2021) for each year through December 31, 2027 and valued using the period end volume weighted average closing share price of the Company’s Common Stock forten consecutive trading days. The Variable Annual Advisory Amount for each year through December 31, 2031 is based on the appreciation of the market price of the Company’s Common Stock if such market price exceeds certain trading price minimums at the end of each reporting period and is valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model.
Fair Value Measurements
The Company determines the fair value of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities using the fair value hierarchy, which establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).
Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Customers
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, and accounts receivable.
At December 31, 2025, the Company had $325.9 million of cash and cash equivalents. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are maintained with various financial institutions and the deposits with these institutions may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. However, the Company regularly monitors the financial stability of its financial institutions and believes that the Company is not exposed to any significant default risk.
For accounts receivable, the Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of nonpayment by customers to the extent of the amounts recorded on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company had one customer represent 19% of the total accounts receivable balance as of December 31, 2025 and two customers represent 20% and 16%, respectively, of the total accounts receivable balance as of December 31, 2024. No other customer accounted for 10% or greater of total accounts receivable balance as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
The Company had two customers in the Fire Safety segment that accounted for 32% and 11%, respectively, of total net sales during the year ended December 31, 2025. The Company had two customers in the Fire Safety segment that accounted for 34% and 11%, respectively, of total net sales during the year ended December 31, 2024. The Company had one customer in the Fire Safety segment that accounted for 22% of total net sales during the year ended December 31, 2023. No other customer accounted for 10% or greater of total net sales during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.
(Loss) Earnings Per Share
The Company’s basic (loss) earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed based on the weighted average number of Common Stock outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS includes the effect of the Company’s outstanding performance-based stock options, warrants and founders advisory fees for Common Stock if the inclusion of these items is dilutive. The treasury stock method is used in determining the amount of Common Stock assumed to be issued from the exercise of Common Stock equivalents.
Reclassification
In 2024, the Company changed the presentation of freight expense on its consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income from selling, general and administrative expense to cost of goods sold, to better match freight expense with freight income. The change has been applied retrospectively to the consolidated financial statements for the prior period presented in this Annual Report. The impact to the accompanying consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive (loss) income for the year ended December 31, 2023 is presented in the following table (in thousands).
There was no impact on previously reported balances in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets or statements of cash flows.

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Standards
In July 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2025-05, Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, which allows all entities to apply a practical expedient when estimating expected credit losses that assumes current conditions as of the balance sheet date will remain unchanged over the asset’s remaining life. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement as well as disclosures about selling expenses. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Although the ASU requires comparative disclosures for all periods presented, entities will be permitted to begin applying the guidance prospectively. Therefore, comparative disclosures are not required for reporting periods beginning before the effective date. Entities can elect to apply this ASU retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this ASU will have on its disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires public entities, on an annual basis, to disclose disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation, using both percentages and reporting currency amounts for specific standardized categories, as well as disclosure of income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this ASU prospectively for the annual period beginning on January 1, 2025. While the adoption of this standard expanded the Company’s disclosures within the “Income Taxes” note on its Form 10-K, the adoption did not have any impact on its financial position or results of operations.

- BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
2024 Acquisition
On December 24, 2024, the Company acquired 100% of the shares of IMS DE Holdings, LLC (“IMS”), which is included within the Company’s Specialty Products segment. Based in New Hampshire, IMS is a manufacturer of electronic or electro-mechanical components of larger solutions. The acquisition was made to expand the Company’s manufacturing capabilities and allow it to acquire and produce a variety of product lines across a range of end markets, with a substantial focus on aftermarket repair and replacement. Consideration paid consisted of $32.8 million in cash, net of cash acquired, and there was no contingent consideration. The Company used the acquisition method of accounting for the transaction and has reflected the value of the acquired assets and liabilities assumed in the consolidated balance sheet, including accounts receivable, inventories, intangible assets, goodwill, and accounts payable. The acquisition date fair value of the technology and customer list intangible assets were $7.1 million and $6.0 million, respectively. The Company used an income approach, the multi-period excess earnings method, to calculate the acquisition date fair value of the customer list intangible assets and the relief-from-royalty method to calculate the acquisition date fair value of the technology intangible asset. Goodwill of $11.9 million was recognized as a result of expected synergies, assembled workforce, and other intangible benefits, all of which is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. Assumptions made by the Company in determining the acquisition date fair value related to revenue and gross profit projections, customer attrition rates, contributory asset charges, and the discount rate for the customer relationships, and revenue projections, a technology obsolescence rate, a royalty rate, and a discount rate for the technology. Certain of these inputs are not observable in the market and represent Level 3 measurements. As the Company completed its evaluation of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, the Company recorded certain adjustments during the measurement period based on facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. The measurement period adjustments were not material. Acquisition-related costs, primarily consisting of legal and advisory fees, were recognized as an operating expense in the prior year and were not material.

The accounting is provisional as the Company is pending valuation of certain tangible and intangible assets that is subject to final adjustment as the Company evaluates information during the measurement period. The preliminary acquisition date fair values of the customer list, technology and tradename intangible assets were $16.9 million, $6.0 million and $3.2 million, respectively. The Company used an income approach, the multi-period excess earnings method, to calculate the acquisition date fair value of the customer list intangible assets and the relief-from-royalty method to calculate the acquisition date fair value of the technology and tradename intangible assets. Goodwill of $10.4 million was recognized as a result of expected synergies and other intangible benefits. Assumptions made by the Company in determining the preliminary acquisition date fair value related to revenue and gross profit projections, customer attrition rates, contributory asset charges, and the discount rate for the customer list, and revenue projections, a technology obsolescence rate, a royalty rate, and a discount rate for the technology. Certain of these inputs are not observable in the market and represent Level 3 measurements. Acquisition-related costs, primarily consisting of legal and advisory fees, were recognized as an operating expense in the current period and were not material. The Company expects that all of the approximately $10.4 million of goodwill and $26.1 million of other intangible assets recognized for the acquisition will be deductible for tax purposes over 15 years.

Borrowings under the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a rate equal to (i) an applicable margin, plus (ii) at Perimeter Holdings option, either (x) Secured Overnight Financing Rate for the applicable corresponding tenor (“Term SOFR”) as published by CME Group Benchmark Administration, subject to a Floor of 1.00% or (y) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (a) the prime commercial lending rate published by the Wall Street Journal, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (c) the one-month Term SOFR rate plus 1.00% and (d)1.00%. The applicable margin is 2.75% in the case of Term SOFR-based loans and 1.75% in the case of base rate-based loans, withtwo step-ups of 0.25% each based upon the achievement of certain leverage ratios.
Solely to the extent that on the last day of the applicable fiscal year, the utilization of the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility (excluding cash collateralized letters of credit and up to $15.0 million of undrawn letters of credit) exceeds 40% of the aggregate commitments, the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility requires compliance on a quarterly basis with a maximum secured net leverage ratio of 7.00:1.00.
The Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility is fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company and each of Perimeter Holdings’ existing and future domestic wholly-owned material restricted subsidiaries, subject to customary exceptions, and is secured by a first priority lien, subject to certain permitted liens, on substantially all of Perimeter Holdings’ and each of the guarantors’ existing and future property and assets, subject to customary exceptions.
Deferred financing costs incurred in connection with securing the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility are carried as a long-term asset and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility and included in interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company didnot have any outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility or the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility and was in compliance with all covenants, including the financial covenants.
Senior Notes
Perimeter Holdings has $675.0 million, principal amount of 5.00% senior secured notes due October 30, 2029 (“Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 5.00%. Interest on the Senior Notes is payable in cash semi-annually in arrears on April 30 and October 30 of each year.
The Senior Notes are general, secured, senior obligations of Perimeter Holdings; rank equally in right of payment with all existing and future senior indebtedness of Perimeter Holdings (including, without limitation, the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility); and together with the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility, are effectively senior to all existing and future indebtedness of Perimeter Holdings that is not secured by the collateral. The Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior secured basis, jointly and severally, by all of Perimeter Holdings’ existing or future restricted subsidiaries (other than certain excluded subsidiaries) that guarantee the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility. The Senior Notes contain certain covenants limiting the Company’s ability and the ability of the restricted subsidiaries (as defined in the indenture governing the Senior Notes) to, under certain circumstances, prepay subordinated indebtedness, pay distributions, redeem stock or make certain restricted investments; incur indebtedness; create liens on Perimeter Holdings assets to secure debt; restrict dividends, distributions or other payments; enter into transactions with affiliates; designate subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries; sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of assets, including equity interests of restricted subsidiaries; effect a consolidation or merger; and change the Company’s line of business. As of December 31, 2025, and 2024, the Company was in compliance with financial covenants.
Deferred financing costs incurred in connection with securing the Senior Notes were capitalized and are amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the Senior Notes and included in interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income. The unamortized portion of the deferred financing costs is included as a reduction to the carrying value of the Senior Notes which have been recorded as long-term debt, net on the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025, and 2024.
Redeemable Preferred Stock
Upon completion of the Redomiciliation Transaction on November 20, 2024 the previously issued 10 million redeemable preferred shares of Perimeter Solutions, SA (the “Lux Preferred Shares”), nominal value $10.00 per share, valued at $100.0 million, automatically converted by operation of law on aone-for-one basis into shares of preferred stock of Perimeter Solutions, Inc. par value $0.0001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”), stated value $100.0 million. The Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of 20 million shares of Preferred Stock which are entitled to a preferred annual cumulative right to a dividend equal to 6.50% of its nominal value. The preferred dividend will be paid 40.00% in cash and 60.00% in kind each year within three business days following the Company's annual general meeting. Holders of the Preferred Stock have no voting rights (only protective rights).
The Company, under its Certificate of Incorporation, is mandatorily required to redeem the Preferred Stock at any time prior to the earliest of (i)six months following the latest maturity date of the above-mentioned Senior Notes, (ii)nine years after the date of issuance of the Preferred Stock or (iii) upon the occurrence of a change of control, as defined in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation.
Due to the fact that the shares of Preferred Stock are mandatorily redeemable, the shares of Preferred Stock are classified as a liability on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, and $7.3 million, $7.1 million and $6.8 million of dividends on these shares of Preferred Stock for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, are classified as interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income.
The shares of Preferred Stock have an aggregate liquidation preference of $100.0 million, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon and are senior to the Company's Common Stock with respect to dividends and with respect to dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the redemption price was $117.2 million and $112.8 million, respectively.

Redomiciliation Transaction
On November 20, 2024, the Redomiciliation Transaction was consummated resulting in a change in domicile for the Company from Luxembourg to the U.S. Following the Redomiciliation Transaction, the Company is subject to U.S. corporate income tax and will file consolidated income tax returns with its U.S. subsidiaries for its U.S. federal and various state government return obligations. The Redomiciliation Transaction resulted in the recognition of a U.S. deferred tax asset for deferred compensation, the removal of deferred taxes on undistributed U.S. earnings, and the removal of various Luxembourg deferred taxes and corresponding valuation allowance.
One Big Beautiful Bill Act
On July 4, 2025, “An Act to provide for reconciliation pursuant to title II of H. Con. Res. 14” and commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted into law in the U.S. The OBBBA includes broad changes to U.S. tax law including full expensing of qualified capital expenditures, full expensing of domestic research and development expenditures, modification of limitation on business interest, and modifications to the international tax framework. The Company is required under U.S. GAAP to recognize the effects of the new legislation in its financial statements in the period of enactment. The OBBBA did not impact the Company’s effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax reporting. Significant portions of the Company’s deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are as follows (in thousands):
| December 31, 2025 | December 31, 2024 | |

| Total deferred tax liabilities | (242,668) | (246,170) |
| Net deferred tax liability | $(79,948) | $(151,903) |
As of December 31, 2025, the Company hadno recognized net operating loss carryforwards.
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, the Company considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. The Company considers the scheduled reversal of existing deferred tax liabilities (including the impact of available carryback and carryforward periods), projected future taxable income, and tax-planning strategies in making this assessment. While the Company expects to realize the remaining net deferred tax assets, changes in future taxable income or in tax laws may alter this expectation and result in future changes to the valuation allowance.
The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2025 relates to capital loss carryforwards in Canada that, in the judgment of the Company, are not more likely than not to be realized. The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2024 primarily relates to net operating loss and interest deduction limitation carryforwards that, in the judgment of the Company, are not more likely than not to be realized. The change in valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for the year ending December 31, 2025 was a net decrease of $1.9 million.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company has provided deferred taxes of$2.1 million associated with withholding taxes on accumulated undistributed earnings generated by foreign subsidiaries. Earnings of countries within the European Union would be subject to zero withholding tax on future distributions of unremitted earnings. The Company continues to assert permanent reinvestment of the remaining undistributed earnings for which deferred taxes have not been provided for as of December 31, 2025. The computation of the potential deferred tax liability associated with these undistributed earnings is not practicable. If there are policy changes, the Company would record the applicable taxes in the period of change.
Uncertain Tax Benefits
The Company evaluates its tax positions and recognizes only tax benefits that, more likely than not, will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that has a greater than 50.0% likelihood of being realized upon settlement. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024 the Company had $23.2 million of uncertain tax positions that, if recognized, would not affect the effective tax rate. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company hadno accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions andno amounts had been recognized in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive (loss) income.
The following table summarizes the activity related to the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits (in thousands):

Commitments
The Company does not have any material unconditional purchase obligations as of December 31, 2025.
- EQUITY
Common Stock
Prior to the Redomiciliation Transaction on November 20, 2024 of Perimeter Solutions, SA (“Perimeter Luxembourg”) the total share capital was $4,100.0 million, consisting of 4,000.0 million Ordinary Shares, with a nominal value of $1.00 per share and 10.0 million Redeemable Preferred Shares with a nominal value of $10.00 per share. Each ordinary share entitled the holder thereof toone vote.
Upon consummation of the Redomiciliation Transaction, total share capital was unchanged. However, each of Perimeter Luxembourg’s issued (i) ordinary shares, with a nominal value of $1.00 per share (the “Lux Ordinary Shares”) and (ii) redeemable preferred shares, with a nominal value of $10.00 each (the “Lux Preferred Shares”), automatically converted by operation of law on aone-for-one basis into (i) shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and (ii) shares of preferred stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”), respectively, in accordance with the terms of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company.
Due to the fact that the shares of Preferred Stock are mandatorily redeemable, the Preferred Stock is classified as a liability on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Refer to Note 7, “Long-Term Debt and Preferred Stock” for additional information about the Preferred Stock.
The Company's board of directors (the "Board") is authorized, up to the maximum amount of the authorized capital, to (i) increase the issued share capital in one or several tranches by way of issuance of Common Stock or Preferred Stock with such rights as freely determined by the Board at its discretion, with or without share premium, against payment in cash or in kind, by conversion of claims on the Company or in any other manner (ii) issue subscription and/or conversion rights in relation to new shares or instruments within the limits of the authorized capital under the terms and conditions of warrants (which may be separate or linked to shares), bonds, notes or similar instruments issued by the Company, (iii) determine the place and date of the issue or successive issues, the issue price, the terms and conditions of the subscription of and paying up on the new shares and instruments and (iv) remove or limit the statutory preferential subscription right of the stockholders and of the holders of instruments issued by the Company that entitle them to a preferential subscription right.
As of December 31, 2025, there were 174,818,216 and 149,440,060 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, there were 169,426,114 and 147,822,633 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding, respectively.

The approximate dollar value of shares that may yet be repurchased under the Share Repurchase Plan was $100.0 million as of December 31, 2025. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company repurchased 3,774,675 and 2,988,291 shares, respectively, under its Share Repurchase Plan. The repurchased shares are recorded at cost and are being held in treasury.

- STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION AND EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
2021 Equity Plan
A total of 31,900,000 shares of Common Stock are authorized and reserved for issuance under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Equity Plan”) which provides for the grant of stock options (either incentive or non-qualified), stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance shares, performance share units and other share-based awards with respect to the Common Stock. Shares associated with underlying awards that are expired, forfeited, or otherwise terminated without the delivery of shares, or are settled in cash, and any shares tendered to or withheld by the Company for the payment of an exercise price or for tax withholding will again be available for issuance under the 2021 Equity Plan.
The Company hasgranted PBNQSO to its executive officers, non-employee directors and other members of senior management under the 2021 Equity Plan. The exercise prices of the outstanding PBNQSO range from $2.94 to $27.84 per share and consist oftwo types of vesting criteria. For unvested PBNQSO grants through December 31, 2025, the remaining vesting period ranges from fiscal year 2026 through fiscal year 2029. The PBNQSO expireten years from the grant date.
The Company records forfeitures as they are incurred. The grant date fair value of the PBNQSO is expensed proportionately for each tranche over the applicable service period. The fair value of performance-based stock options is recognized as compensation expense beginning at the time in which the performance conditions are deemed probable of achievement, over the remaining applicable service period.
The table below summarizes the PBNQSO activity:
| Number of Options | Weighted-AverageExercise/ConversionPrice | Weighted-AverageRemaining ContractualLife (years) | AggregateIntrinsic Value(in thousands) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Outstanding at December 31, 2024 | 15,434,171 | $8.44 | ||
| Granted | 3,113,000 | $12.20 | ||
| Exercised | (3,575,439) | $9.73 | ||

| Options vested and exercisable | 5,379,959 | $9.11 | 6.9 | $99,116 |
The assumptions used to fair value the PBNQSO granted during the year ended December 31, 2025 using the Hull-White model were as follows:
| Year Ended December 31, 2025 | |
|---|---|
| Dividend yield | —% |
| Risk-free interest rate | 4.06% to 4.57% |
| Expected volatility | 49.00% to 50.00% |
| Expected life (years) | 10.00 |
| Suboptimal exercise multiple | 2.5 |
| Drift rate | 4.06% to 4.57% |
| Weighted average exercise price of options granted | $12.20 |
| Weighted average fair value of options granted | $7.09 |
Stock-based compensation expense recognized by the Company during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 was $16.6 million, $12.8 million and $1.6 million, respectively. The total tax benefit, including impact of vesting and exercises, recognized during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 related to non-cash stock-based compensation expense was $1.3 million, $0.2 million and $0.8 million, respectively. Compensation expense is recognized based upon probability assessments of achieving the AOP targets determined using estimated Adjusted EBITDA, net debt and diluted shares for PBNQSO that are expected to vest in future periods. Such probability assessments are subject to revision and, therefore, unrecognized compensation expense is subject to future changes in estimate. As of December 31, 2025, there was approximately $23.6 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested PBNQSO expected to vest, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.4 years.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company received $34.5 million in proceeds from exercises of PBNQSO. The total intrinsic value of PBNQSO exercised during the year ended December 31, 2025 was $44.8 million.
Founder Advisory Amounts
As discussed in Note 13, Related Parties, the Company assumed, and agreed to pay, perform, satisfy and discharge in full, all of EverArc’s liabilities and obligations under the key terms and conditions of the Founder Advisory Agreement previously executed between EverArc and EverArc Founder Entity.
The fair value of the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount is calculated based on the 10-day volume weighted average price of the Company’s Common Stock. The fair value of the Variable Annual Advisory Amount is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation because of the market condition (i.e., achievement of a specified share price) associated with this award. For Advisory Amounts classified within equity, the Company does not subsequently remeasure the fair value. For the Advisory Amounts classified as a liability, the Company remeasures the fair value at each reporting date.
The key inputs into the Monte Carlo simulation model for the Variable Annual Advisory Amounts were as follows at December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023:
| December 31, 2025 | December 31, 2024 | December 31, 2023 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dividend yield | —% | —% | —% |
| Risk-free interest rate | 3.80% | 4.43% | 3.84% |
| Expected volatility | 50.00% | 49.50% | 48.10% |
| Expected life (years) | 6.00 | 7.00 | 8.00 |
| 10-day volume weighted average share price | $27.89 | $12.85 | $4.51 |
All of the Founder Advisory Amounts are vested. Compensation expense recorded by the Company in the future will depend upon changes in the fair value of the liability-classified Advisory Amounts. See Note 13, “Related Parties”, for additional information related to the Founders Advisory Amounts.
Savings and Investment Plans
The Company sponsors a savings and investment plan under which a portion of employee contributions are matched. The Company recognized compensation expense related to matching contributions of $1.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 and $1.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
- FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair Value Measurement
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of their maturities. Borrowings under the Company’s Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility accrue interest at a floating rate tied to a standard short-term borrowing index, selected at the Company’s option, plus an applicable margin. The carrying amount of this floating rate debt approximates fair value based upon the respective interest rates adjusting with market rate adjustments. The carrying amount of the Company's Preferred Stock equals the redemption price, which approximates fair value. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the estimated fair value of the Company's Senior Notes, calculated using Level 2 inputs, based on bid prices obtained from a broker was approximately $669.4 million and $629.5 million, respectively.
The Company uses valuation approaches that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:
Level 1 inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to the reporting entity at the measurement date.
Level 2 inputs: Other than quoted prices in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.
Liabilities by Hierarchy Level
The following tables set forth the Company’s liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis during the period, by level, within the fair value hierarchy for the periods ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 (in thousands):

The fair value of the founders advisory fees payable is based on the market price of Common Stock if such market price exceeds certain trading price minimums at the end of each reporting period and is valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model, which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the fair value of the underlying Common Stock, the risk-free interest rate, the expected equity volatility, and the expected term of the Founder Advisory Agreement. See Note 11, “Stock-Based Compensation” for discussion of the fair value estimation on the founders advisory fees payable.

- RELATED PARTIES
In exchange for the services provided to the Company, including strategic and capital allocation advice, the EverArc Founder Entity is entitled to receive both a Fixed Annual Advisory Amount and the Variable Annual Advisory Amount from the Company, each as described below:
Fixed Annual Advisory Amount. Effective November 9, 2021 through December 31, 2027, the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount will be equal to 2,357,061 shares of Common Stock (1.5% of the 157,137,410 shares of Common Stock, the Founder Advisory Agreement Calculation Number).
Variable Annual Advisory Amount. Effective November 9, 2021 through December 31, 2031, and once the average price per share of Common Stock is at least $10.00, the Variable Annual Advisory Amount will be equal in value to:
in the first year in which the Variable Annual Advisory Amount is payable, (x)18% of the increase in the market value of one share of the Company’s Common Stock over $10.00 (such increase in market value, the “Payment Price”) multiplied by (y)157,137,410 shares of Common Stock, the Founder Advisory Agreement Calculation Number; and
in the following years in which the Variable Annual Advisory Amount may be payable (if at all), (x)18% of the increase in Payment Price over the previous year Payment Price multiplied by (y)157,137,410 shares of Common Stock, the Founder Advisory Agreement Calculation Number.
The Founder Advisory Agreement can be terminated at any time (i) by the EverArc Founder Entity if the Company ceases to be traded on the NYSE; or (ii) by the EverArc Founder Entity or the Company if there is (A) a Sale of the Company (as defined in the Founder Advisory Agreement) or (B) a liquidation of the Company.
The Company calculates the fair value of the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount using the average price of Common Stock and used a Monte Carlo simulation model to calculate the fair value of the Variable Annual Advisory Amount. The Advisory Amounts may be settled by paying up to 50% in cash, recorded as a liability, with the remaining percentage settled in Common Stock. While the entire instrument is subject to the fair value calculation described above, the amount classified and recorded as equity remains consistent while the amount classified and recorded as a liability is updated each period. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized an increase in the compensation expense related to the founders advisory fees payable - related party due to an increase in fair value for liability-classified Advisory Amounts of $435.2 million and $198.3 million, respectively, primarily due to increases in share price of the Company’s Common Stock.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the fair value of the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount for the remaining term was calculated to be $131.3 million and $90.8 million, respectively, based on the period end volume weighted average closing share price forten consecutive trading days of Common Stock of $27.89 and $12.85, respectively. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the fair value of the Variable Annual Advisory Amount, determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model, was $750.1 million and $389.3 million, respectively.
For 2025, the average price was $27.89 per share of Common Stock. The EverArc Founder Entity is entitled to receive the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount of 2,357,061 shares of Common Stock or a value of $65.7 million, based on an average price of $27.89 per share of Common Stock (the “2025 Fixed Amount”). The EverArc Founder Entity is also entitled to receive a Variable Annual Advisory Amount for 2025 of 14,462,123 shares of Common Stock, or a value of $403.4 million (the “2025 Variable Amount” and together with the 2025 Fixed Amount, the “2025 Advisory Amounts”). The EverArc Founder Entity elected to receive approximately 79.6% of the 2025 Advisory Amounts in shares of Common Stock (13,387,002 Common Shares) and approximately 20.4% of the 2025 Advisory Amounts in cash ($95.7 million). To satisfy the 2025 Advisory Amounts, the Company paid $95.7 million in cash on February 19, 2026 and expects to issue 13,387,002 shares of Common Stock in the first quarter of 2026.
For 2024, the average price was $12.85 per share of Common Stock. The EverArc Founder Entity was entitled to receive the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount of 2,357,061 shares of Common Stock or a value of $30.3 million, based on an average price of $12.85 per share of Common Stock (the “2024 Fixed Amount”). The EverArc Founder Entity did not qualify to receive the Variable Annual Advisory Amount for 2024 as the average price of $12.85 per share of Common Stock for 2024 was lower than the average price of $13.63 per Common Share established in 2021. The EverArc Founder Entity elected to receive approximately 78% of the 2024 Fixed Amount in Common Stock (1,837,304 Common Shares) and approximately 22% of the 2024 Fixed Amount in cash ($6.7 million). On February 18, 2025, the Company issued 1,837,304 Common Shares and paid $6.7 million in cash in satisfaction of the 2024 Fixed Amount.
Subject to certain limited exceptions, the EverArc Founder Entity’s liability for losses in connection with the services provided is excluded and the Company will have agreed to indemnify the EverArc Founder Entity and its affiliates in relation to certain liabilities incurred in connection with acts or omissions by or on behalf of the Company or the EverArc Founder Entity. If the Founder Advisory Agreement is terminated under (i) or (ii)(A), the Company will pay the EverArc Founder Entity an amount in cash equal to: (a) the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount for the year in which termination occurs and for each remaining year of the term of the agreement, in each case at the Payment Price; and (b) the Variable Annual Advisory Amount that would have been payable for the year of termination and for each remaining year of the term of the agreement. In each case the Payment Price in the year of termination will be calculated on the basis of the Payment Year ending on the trading day immediately prior to the date of termination, save that in the event of a Sale of the Company, the Payment Price will be calculated on the basis of the amount paid by the relevant third party (or cash equivalent if such amount is not paid in cash). For each remaining year of the term of the agreement the Payment Price in each case will increase by 15% each year. No account will be taken of any Payment Price in any year preceding the termination when calculating amounts due on termination. Payment will be immediately due and payable on the date of termination of the Founder Advisory Agreement.
Notwithstanding that the Fixed and Variable Advisory Amounts will be paid out overtwo years andsix years, respectively, the Company has accrued the full amount of the payments because, the Company has incurred an obligation equal to the present value of the entire amount of both the Fixed and Variable Annual Advisory Amounts.

- SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
