The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2026, as filed with the SEC on February 27, 2026, and our other reports and registration statements that we file with the SEC from time to time. In addition to historical condensed consolidated financial information, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates, and beliefs.

Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and challenging environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all risks and uncertainties that could have an impact on the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We cannot assure you that the results, events, and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary cash needs are to support working capital, research and development, interest on debt, employee compensation, capital expenditures, acquisitions, debt repayments, and other general corporate purposes. Historically, we generally financed our liquidity needs with operating cash flows, borrowings under our Credit Agreement, and the issuance of common stock. These sources of liquidity may be impacted by events described in Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors.
As of July 3, 2026, we held $9.9 million of our $61.3 million of cash and cash equivalents in accounts of our subsidiaries outside of the U.S., which we may repatriate.
A summary of our operating, investing, and financing activities is shown in the following table:
For the six months ended
(in millions) July 3, 2026 July 4, 2025
Net cash provided by operating activities $ 13.2 $ 37.5
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities 0.7 (19.4)

Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents (1.0) 1.1
Change in cash and cash equivalents $ 3.3 $ 9.8
*Amounts may not foot due to rounding.
We expect that cash on hand, cash flows from operations and availability under our Credit Agreement will be sufficient to fund our operations during the next 12 months from the date of this Form 10-Q and beyond.
Operating activities
In the six months ended July 3, 2026, net cash provided by operating activities was $13.2 million. Our investment in operating assets and liabilities is mainly a result of an increase in inventory of $17.4 million, an increase in accounts receivable of $13.0 million, a decrease in accounts payable of $5.9 million, and a decrease in accrued expenses and other liabilities of $4.3 million, partially offset by a decrease in prepaids and other assets of $3.9 million, net of the impact of the divestiture. Inventory increased primarily due to planned inventory builds to support anticipated demand. The change in our accounts receivable reflects the timing of customer collections. The change in accounts payable reflects the timing of vendor payments. The decrease in accrued expenses and other liabilities is driven by amortization of lease liabilities. Prepaids and other assets decreased primarily due to lower prepaid insurance.
In the six months ended July 4, 2025, net cash provided by operating activities was $37.5 million. Our investment in operating assets and liabilities is a result of an increase in accounts receivable of $15.4 million, a decrease in accounts payable of $11.1 million, a decrease in accrued expenses and other liabilities of $8.6 million, a decrease in income taxes payable of $4.0 million, and an increase in inventory of $2.1 million, partially offset by a decrease in prepaids and other assets of $19.8 million. The change in our accounts receivable reflects an increase in our sales and the timing of customer collections. The change in our accounts payable is driven by timing of inventory purchases and vendor payments. The decrease in accrued expenses and other liabilities is mainly due to a decrease in warranty reserve, a decrease in lease liabilities due to lease terminations, and payments for various accruals. The decrease in income taxes payable is mainly due to our income tax payments. Inventory increased primarily due to planned inventory builds to support anticipated demand, the impact from higher tariffs, and foreign currency translation, partially offset by our efforts to optimize inventory levels. The decrease in prepaids and other assets is primarily due to lower chassis deposits driven by working capital optimization efforts.
Investing activities

Credit Agreement
On April 5, 2022, the Company entered into a new credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, and other named lenders. The Credit Agreement, which was set to mature on April 5, 2027, provides for revolving loans, swingline loans and letters of credit up to an aggregate amount of $650.0 million.
The Company may borrow, prepay, and re-borrow principal under the Credit Agreement during its term. Advances under the Credit Agreement can be either Adjusted Term SOFR loans or base rate loans. SOFR rate revolving loans bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each interest period at a rate per annum equal to Term SOFR for such calculation plus 0.10% plus a margin ranging from 1.00% to 2.25%. Base rate revolving loans bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to the highest of (i) Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, (ii) the rate of interest in effect for such day as publicly announced from time to time by the lender as its “prime rate”, and (iii) Adjusted Term SOFR rate for a one-month tenor plus 1.00%, subject to the interest rate floors set forth therein, plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 1.00%.
On November 14, 2023, in connection and concurrently with the closing of the Marucci acquisition, the Company entered into the First Incremental Facility Amendment (the “First Amendment”) amending the Credit Agreement. The First Amendment provided the Company with the Incremental Term A Loan in an amount of $400.0 million and the Delayed Draw Term Loan in an amount of $200.0 million, each of which are permitted under the Credit Agreement, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions. The Incremental Term A Loan was fully funded on November 14, 2023 and used to fund a portion of the consideration owed under the Marucci acquisition. The Delayed Draw Term Loan was available to the Company from and including December 6, 2023, until the earlier of (a) May 14, 2024 and (b) the date on which the Delayed Draw Term commitments have been terminated. Each Incremental Term Loan is subject to quarterly amortization payments of principal at a rate of 5.00% per annum. The Incremental Term Loans are in the form of term SOFR loans and base rate loans, at the option of the Company, and have an applicable margin ranging from 0.50% to 1.50% for base rate loans and 1.50% to 2.50% for term SOFR loans, subject to adjustment provisions. Each Incremental Term Loan has a maturity date of April 5, 2027, consistent with the Credit Agreement. On May 13, 2024, the Company borrowed the full amount of $200.0 million of the Delayed Draw Term Loan.
On July 31, 2024 and December 20, 2024, the Company entered into the Third and Fourth Amendment to the Credit Facility, respectively to secure an improved covenant profile on its capital structure to provide more flexibility given the uncertain macro environment.
Fifth Amended Credit Agreement
On October 24, 2025, the Company entered into the Fifth Amendment to the Credit Agreement, which amended the Credit Agreement, dated as of April 5, 2022, as previously amended.
The Fifth Amendment, among other things, amended the Credit Agreement to replace the existing loans provided under the Credit Agreement with (i) the Term Loan in the aggregate outstanding amount of $537.5 million, which will be repaid by the Company in quarterly installments in the amount of $6.7 million, (ii) the Revolving Credit Facility in an aggregate amount of up to $500.0 million, with sub-facilities for swing line loans in an aggregate amount of up to $25.0 million and letters of credit in an aggregate amount of up to $25.0 million, and (iii) an incremental loan facility, subject to additional terms set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement, in an aggregate amount of up to $175.0 million plus an unlimited amount so long as after giving effect to the incurrence of such incremental loans, on a pro forma basis, the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio is less than 3.25. To the extent not previously paid, all then-outstanding amounts under the Term Loan and the Revolving Credit Facility are due and payable on October 24, 2030.

Sixth Amended Credit Agreement
On May 6, 2026, the Company entered into the Sixth Amendment to the Credit Agreement. The Sixth Amendment amended the Credit Agreement, dated April 5, 2022, as previously amended.
The Sixth Amendment, among other things, amended the margins for interest under the Credit Agreement, pursuant to which the term loan and advances under the revolving credit facility can be either SOFR loans or base rate loans. Pursuant to the Sixth Amendment, SOFR loans bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each interest period at a rate per annum equal to the term SOFR for such calculation period plus a margin ranging from 1.00% to 2.75%, based on the levels of Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio. Base rate loans bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to the highest of (i) Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, (ii) the rate of interest in effect for such day as publicly announced from time to time by the Agent as its “prime rate,” and (iii) term SOFR rate for a one-month tenor plus 1.00%, subject to the interest rate floors set forth in the Sixth Amended Credit Agreement, plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 1.75%, based on the levels of Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio.
The Sixth Amendment also amended the definition of Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio and modifies the provisions for the mandatory prepayment of the loans with the net proceeds of asset sales. In addition, the Sixth Amendment tightens certain negative covenants on the Company, including restrictions on indebtedness, investments, and restricted payments during the period beginning on the effective date of the Sixth Amendment and ending on the date a compliance certificate is delivered by the Company for the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2028, provided that no default or event of default has occurred and is continuing on such date of delivery.
Under the Sixth Amendment, the Company is required to maintain (i) a Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio not to exceed (a) 5.00 as of the end of each fiscal quarter ending July 3, 2026 through January 1, 2027, (b) 4.75 as of the end of each fiscal quarter ending April 2, 2027 through July 2, 2027, (c) 4.50 as of the end of each fiscal quarter ending October 1, 2027 through December 31, 2027, (d) 4.25 as of the end of the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2028, and (e) 4.00 as of the end of the fiscal quarters ending June 30, 2028 and thereafter, each of which will be, at the Company’s election, increased by 0.50 (but not to exceed 4.50) for the four fiscal quarters after the consummation of certain permitted acquisitions exceeding $75,000 (provided that such increase is not permitted during the Covenant Relief Period), and (ii) a Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio of not less than (a) 2.50 as of the end of each fiscal quarter ending July 3, 2026 through June 30, 2028, and (b) 2.75 as of the end each fiscal quarter ending September 29, 2028 and thereafter.
The Sixth Amended Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets, restricts the Company’s ability to make certain payments and engage in certain transactions, and requires that the Company satisfy customary financial ratios. The Company was in compliance with the covenants as of July 3, 2026.
At July 3, 2026, the one-month SOFR and three-month SOFR rates were 3.63% and 3.63%, respectively. At July 3, 2026, our weighted-average interest rate on outstanding borrowing was 6.05%.

Recent Developments
Global Trade Actions and Tariffs - New and expanded tariffs announced under the Trump administration and triggered retaliatory actions, by certain affected countries and other foreign governments, have introduced additional costs and uncertainty into our supply chain, which may impact our cost structure and working capital needs. In February 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that certain tariffs imposed under the Trump administration were unlawful, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection has subsequently implemented a process through which eligible importers may apply for refunds of tariffs previously paid. While we are evaluating our eligibility and the potential recoverability and timing of any such refunds, the process is subject to administrative requirements and uncertainty, and any refunds are not assured. In July 2026, the administration announced new tariffs ranging from 10% to 12.5 % for over sixty countries, citing that the tariffs target countries with forced labor practices. Some countries hit by the new tariffs have objected to unfounded labor claims and the enforceability of the tariffs is still to be determined. We continue to assess the potential effects of these developments on our supply chain and sourcing strategies as well as our future operating results, cash flows, and working capital. Although we may experience volatility in cash flows as trade policies and refund mechanisms evolve, we believe our existing liquidity and access to the Amended Credit Agreement provide sufficient flexibility to manage these developments.
Material Cash Requirements
There have been no material changes to the information in our material cash requirements related to commitments or contractual obligations from those reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2026, as filed with the SEC on February 27, 2026.
Inflation
Significant increases in inflation, particularly those related to wages and increases in the cost of raw materials, have and could continue to have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Interest Rates
Interest rate volatility can impact our borrowing costs and overall financial condition. Significant increases could lead to higher interest expense on our variable-rate debt. To mitigate this risk and enhance predictability, we utilize interest rate swaps to manage our exposure to interest rate fluctuations.
