We are exposed to market risks arising from our normal business activities. These market risks principally involve the possibility of changes in interest rates that will adversely affect the value of our financial assets and liabilities or future cash flows and earnings, foreign currency exchange risk that may result in unfavorable foreign currency translation adjustments and inflation. Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices. The following analysis provides quantitative and qualitative information regarding these risks.
Interest Rate Risks
Interest rate risk is highly sensitive due to many factors, including U.S. monetary and tax policies, U.S. and international economic factors and other factors beyond our control.
We issued floating-rate debt which is subject to fluctuations in interest rates. Our secured credit facilities accrue interest at variable rates and are subject to a floor or a minimum rate. Based upon a sensitivity analysis of our outstanding debt on June 30, 2026, a hypothetical 100 basis point increase in interest rates over our floor on our debt balances outstanding as of June 30, 2026, under the secured credit facilities, would increase our annual interest expense by approximately $7.5 million. The impact on future interest expense as a result of future changes in interest rates will depend largely on the gross amount of our borrowings at that time.
As of June 30, 2026, the Company has three interest rate swap agreements which convert a portion of the interest rate payments on the Company's Term Loan Facilities from variable rate debt to fixed.
The interest rate swap exposes us to credit risk in the event that the counterparty to the swap agreement does not or cannot meet its obligations. The notional amount is used to measure interest to be paid or received and does not represent the amount of exposure to credit loss. The loss would be limited to the amount that would have been received, if any, over the remaining life of the swap. The counterparties to the swaps are major U.S. based financial institutions, and we expect all counterparties to be able to perform its obligations under the swaps. We use derivative financial instruments for hedging purposes only and not for trading or speculative purposes.
See Note 6 of the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements appearing elsewhere in this report for additional information related to the secured credit facilities.
Foreign Exchange Risk
We conduct business in certain countries in Latin America for which we have determined that the functional currency is other than the U.S. dollar. Given this, our operating results are exposed to volatility due to fluctuations in exchange rates for the countries' functional currencies. Non-functional currency transactions are remeasured into the functional currency which results in a foreign exchange gain or loss recorded through Other income. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recognized non-cash unrealized foreign currency remeasurement losses of $0.7 million compared to gains of $1.3 million for the same period in 2025. For subsidiaries whose functional currency is other than the U.S. dollar, their assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates at the balance sheet date, and revenues and expenses are translated using average exchange rates in effect during the period. The resulting foreign currency translation adjustments are reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had $4.6 million in an unfavorable foreign currency translation adjustment as part of accumulated other comprehensive loss compared with an unfavorable foreign currency translation adjustment of $63.4 million as of December 31, 2025.
Inflation Risk
While it is difficult to accurately measure the impact of inflation on our results of operations and financial condition, we believe the effects of inflation, if any, on our historical results of operations and financial condition have been immaterial. General inflation in the geographies in which we operate has risen to levels that have not been experienced in recent years; however, inflation has historically had a minimal net effect on our operating results given that overall inflation has been offset by sales and cost reduction actions. Rising prices for input costs, including wages and benefits, occupancy and general administrative costs, could potentially have a negative impact on our results of operations and financial condition which may not be readily recoverable from our customers. In addition, inflation has led to enhanced volatility on foreign currency exchange rates. While

we proactively try to mitigate these rising costs, we may not be able to fully offset these impacts, which could result in negative effect on our results of operation. Thus, we cannot assure you that our results of operations and financial condition will not be materially impacted by inflation in the future.
