MGP INGREDIENTS, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Dollars in thousands, unless otherwise noted)
Note 1. Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation
The Company. MGP Ingredients, Inc. (the “Company” or “MGP”) is a Kansas corporation headquartered in Atchison, Kansas and is a leading producer of branded and distilled spirits, as well as food ingredient solutions. The Company has a portfolio of its own high quality branded spirits which are produced through its distilleries and bottling facilities and sold to distributors. The Company’s branded spirits products account for a range of price points from value products through premium plus brands. Distilled spirits include premium bourbon, rye, and other American whiskeys (“brown goods”) and grain neutral spirits (“GNS”), including vodka and gin. The Company’s distilled spirits are either sold directly or indirectly to manufacturers of other branded spirits. The Company’s protein and starch food ingredients are predominately wheat based and provide a host of functional, nutritional, and sensory benefits for a wide range of food products to serve the consumer packaged goods industry. The ingredient products are sold directly, or through distributors, to manufacturers and processors of finished packaged goods or to bakeries.
The Company reports three operating segments: Branded Spirits, Distilling Solutions, and Ingredient Solutions.
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned and majority owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the quarter and year to date ended September 30, 2025, should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal and recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly present the results for interim periods in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted.
The Company holds a 60 percent interest in Dos Primos Tequila, LLC (“Dos Primos”). The Company consolidated Dos Primos’ activity on the financial statements and presented the 40 percent non-controlling interest portion on a separate line.
Use of Estimates. The financial reporting policies of the Company conform to GAAP. The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The application of certain of these policies places demands on management’s judgment, with financial reporting results relying on estimation about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. For all of these policies, management cautions that future events may not develop as forecast, and estimates routinely require adjustment and may require material adjustment.
Inventory. Inventory includes finished goods, raw materials in the form of agricultural commodities used in the production process as well as bottles, caps, and labels used in the bottling process, and certain maintenance and repair items. Bourbons, ryes, and other whiskeys, included in inventory, are normally aged in barrels for several years, following industry practice; all barreled bourbon, rye, and other whiskeys are classified as a current asset. The Company includes warehousing, insurance, and other carrying charges applicable to barreled whiskey in inventory costs.
9

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value on the first-in, first-out, or FIFO, method. Inventory valuations are impacted by constantly changing prices paid for key materials. Inventory consists of the following:

|  | September 30, 2025 |  | December 31, 2024
Finished goods |  | $ | 47,740 |  |  | $ | 43,952 |
Barreled distillate (bourbons and other whiskeys) |  | 299,438 |  |  | 283,119 |
Raw materials |  | 25,898 |  |  | 25,491 |
Work in process |  | 1,776 |  |  | 1,673 |
Maintenance materials |  | 8,820 |  |  | 8,591 |
Other |  | 851 |  |  | 2,118 |
Total |  | $ | 384,523 |  |  | $ | 364,944 |

Revenue Recognition. Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services, through performance obligations by the Company, is transferred to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for the performance obligations. The term between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant and the period between when the entity transfers the promised good or service to the customer and when the customer pays for that good or service is generally one year or less.
Revenue is recognized for the sale of products at the point in time finished products are delivered to the customer in accordance with shipping terms. This is a faithful depiction of the satisfaction of the performance obligation because, at the point control passes to the customer, the customer has legal title and the risk and rewards of ownership have transferred, and the customer has a present obligation to pay.
The Distilling Solutions segment routinely enters into bill and hold arrangements, whereby the Company produces and sells aged and unaged distillate to customers, and the product is barreled at the customer’s request and warehoused by the Company for an extended period of time in accordance with directions received from the Company’s customers. Even though the aged and unaged distillate remains in the Company’s possession, a sale is recognized at the point in time when the customer obtains control of the product. Control is transferred to the customer in bill and hold transactions when the customer acceptance specifications have been met, legal title has transferred, the customer has a present obligation to pay for the product, and the risk and rewards of ownership have transferred to the customer. Additionally, all of the following bill and hold criteria have to be met in order for control to be transferred to the customer: the reason for the bill and hold arrangement is substantive, the customer has requested the product be warehoused, the product has been identified as separately belonging to the customer, the product is currently ready for physical transfer to the customer, and the Company does not have the ability to use the product or direct it to another customer.
Warehouse services revenue is recognized over the time that warehouse services are rendered and as they are rendered. This is a faithful depiction of the satisfaction of the performance obligation because control of the aging products has already passed to the customer and there are no additional performance activities required by the Company, except as requested by the customer. The performance of the service activities, as requested, is invoiced as satisfied and revenue is concurrently recognized. Contract bottling is recognized over the time contract bottling services are rendered and as they are rendered.
Sales in the Branded Spirits segment reflect reductions attributable to consideration given to customers in incentive programs, including discounts and allowances for certain volume targets. These allowances and discounts are not for distinct goods and are paid only when the depletion volume targets are achieved by the customer. The amounts reimbursed to customers are determined based on agreed-upon amounts and are recorded as a reduction of revenue.
Excise Taxes. The Company is responsible for compliance with the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau of the U.S. Treasury Department (the “TTB”) regulations, which include making timely and accurate excise tax payments. The Company is subject to periodic compliance audits by the TTB. Individual U.S. states also impose excise taxes on alcohol beverages in varying amounts. The Company calculates its U.S. federal and state excise tax expense based upon units shipped and on its understanding of the applicable excise tax laws. Excise taxes that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction, and that are collected by the Company from a customer, are excluded from revenue and expense.
10

Income Taxes. The Company accounts for income taxes using an asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. A valuation allowance is recognized if it is more likely than not that at least some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.
Earnings Per Common Share (“EPS”). Basic and diluted EPS is computed using the two-class method, which is an earnings allocation formula that determines net income per share for each class of Common Stock and participating security according to dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Basic EPS amounts are computed by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average shares outstanding during each period. Diluted EPS is computed using the if-converted method by dividing the net income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average shares outstanding, inclusive of the impact of potentially dilutive items such as the Convertible Senior Notes or stock options, except for where the result would be anti-dilutive as of the balance sheet date.
Translation of Foreign Currencies. Assets and liabilities of Niche Drinks Co Ltd (“Niche”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company whose functional currency is the British pound sterling, are translated to U.S. dollars using the exchange rate in effect at the condensed consolidated balance sheet date. Results of operations are translated using average rates during the period. Adjustments resulting from the translation process are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.
Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets. The Company records goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets in connection with various acquisitions of businesses and allocates the goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets to its respective reporting units. All goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets are related to the Branded Spirits reporting unit. The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment at least annually, in the fourth quarter, or on an interim basis if events and circumstances occur that would indicate it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than the carrying value. To the extent that the carrying value exceeds fair value, an impairment of goodwill is recognized. Judgment is required in the determination of reporting units, the assignment of assets and liabilities to reporting units, including goodwill, and the determination of fair value of the reporting units. The Company separately evaluates indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment.
During 2025, the Company experienced a decrease in stock price and market capitalization. The Company assessed whether this decrease constituted a triggering event for its Branded Spirits reporting unit. The Company concluded that there was no triggering event because it believes the decline in the Company’s market capitalization results from the financial performance of all three reporting units, in particular, the recent declines experienced for Distilling Solutions and Ingredient Solutions. As of September 30, 2025, the Company determined that goodwill relating to the Branded Spirits reporting unit was not impaired. Also, despite recent declines in performance of certain brands within the mid and value price tiers, as of September 30, 2025, the Company determined that indefinite-lived intangible assets relating to the Branded Spirits reporting unit were not impaired.
The Company will continue to evaluate its goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets in future quarters. Independent of the expected future operating performance of the Branded Spirits reporting unit, any further significant decline in the Company’s market capitalization or changes in discount rates, even if due to macroeconomic factors, could put pressure on the carrying value of its goodwill. In addition, if future revenues and contributions to the Company’s operating results for any of its indefinite-lived intangible assets or the Branded Spirits reporting unit perform at levels below its current projections, the Company may be required to record impairment charges to certain intangible assets or the goodwill related to the Branded Spirits reporting unit. A determination that a portion or all of the Company’s goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets are impaired could have a material adverse effect on its business, consolidated financial condition, and results of operations.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments. The Company determines the fair values of its financial instruments based on a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based upon the observability of inputs. Fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
The Company’s short-term financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable. The carrying value of the short-term financial instruments approximates the fair value due to their short-term nature.
11

These financial instruments have no stated maturities or the financial instruments have short-term maturities that approximate market.
The fair value of the Company’s debt is estimated based on current market interest rates for debt with similar maturities and credit quality. Excluding the impact of the conversion feature of the Convertible Senior Notes, the fair value of the Company’s debt was $204,021 and $249,672 at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The financial statement carrying value of total debt (net of unamortized loan fees) was $268,723 and $323,541 at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. These fair values are considered Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy.
The fair value calculation of contingent consideration associated with the acquisition of Penelope Bourbon LLC (“Penelope”) uses unobservable inputs, such as estimated net sales over the term of the earn-out period, discount rates, and volatility rates. The contingent consideration is measured using the Monte Carlo simulation approach. The inputs used in the calculation of the contingent consideration liability are considered Level 3 under the fair value hierarchy due to the lack of relevant market activity. The contingent consideration liability is measured on a quarterly basis and recorded at fair value. The changes in fair value of the obligation resulted from changes in the key assumptions between measurement dates, such as actual net sales, projected net sales, discount rates, and volatility rates. During the quarters ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, there were $2,800 and $6,400, respectively, in adjustments to the fair value measurement of the contingent consideration obligation. During the years to date ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, there were $25,500 and $15,900, respectively, in adjustments to the fair value measurement of the contingent consideration obligation. These adjustments were included in the change in fair value of contingent consideration on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The fair value of the Company’s contingent consideration liability was $110,800 and $85,300 at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The amount payable is based upon achievement of certain net sales targets between the acquisition date and December 31, 2025. The Company achieved the maximum net sales target as defined in the Penelope acquisition agreement during the third quarter 2025, and in accordance with the terms of the agreement, the Company will pay out the full contingent consideration of $110,800 during the first half of 2026.
Fair value disclosure for deferred compensation plan investments is included in Note 8, Employee and Non-Employee Benefit Plans.
Equity Method Investments. The Company holds 50 percent interests in DGL Destiladores, S.de R.L. de C.V. (“DGL”) and Agricola LG, S.de R.L. de C.V. (“Agricola” and together with DGL, “LMX”), which are accounted for as equity method investments and are considered affiliates of the Company. The investment in LMX, which is recorded in investment in joint venture on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, was $7,894 and $7,024 at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. During the quarter and year to date ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded income of $375 and $869, respectively, from its equity method investment. During the quarter and year to date ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded income of $832 and $1,446, respectively, from its equity method investments. Income from the equity method investment is recorded in other income, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
During the quarters ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company purchased $5,753 and $7,606, respectively, of finished goods from LMX and bulk beverage alcohol from the other 50 percent owner of DGL. During the year to date ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company purchased $16,319 and $22,604, respectively, of finished goods from LMX and bulk beverage alcohol from the other 50 percent owner of DGL.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standard Updates. The Company did not adopt any new Accounting Standard Updates (“ASUs”) during the quarter ended September 30, 2025.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements. ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, requires improved disclosures related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. This ASU requires companies to reconcile the income tax expense attributable to continuing operations to the statutory federal income tax rate applied to pre-tax income from continuing operations. Additionally, this ASU requires companies to disclose the total amount of income taxes paid during the period. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 with early adoption permitted. The guidance is required to be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company plans to adopt this ASU when it becomes effective, and the Company expects this ASU will impact the Company’s note disclosures with no material impacts to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
12

Credit Agreement. On February 14, 2020, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with multiple participants led by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo Bank”) which provided for a $300,000 revolving credit facility and had a maturity date of May 14, 2026. On April 24, 2025, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “A&R Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, as administrative agent, swingline lender, and issuing lender, and the other lenders and parties thereto. The A&R Credit Agreement amends and restates the Company’s existing Credit Agreement, extending the maturity date to April 24, 2030. The A&R Credit Agreement increases the size of the revolving credit facility to $500,000 and permits the Company to increase the amount of the revolving credit facility by up to an additional $200,000, subject to certain conditions and at the discretion of the lenders. The Company incurred $2,712 of loan fees related to the A&R Credit Agreement during the year to date ended September 30, 2025.
The A&R Credit Agreement includes certain requirements and covenants with which the Company was in compliance at September 30, 2025. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $57,000 of outstanding borrowings under the A&R Credit Agreement, leaving $443,000 available.
Convertible Senior Notes. On November 16, 2021, the Company issued $201,250 in aggregate principal amount of 1.88% convertible senior notes due in 2041 (the “2041 Notes”). The 2041 Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of November 16, 2021 (the “Indenture”), by and among the Company, as issuer, Luxco, Inc., MGPI Processing, Inc., and MGPI of Indiana, LLC, as subsidiary guarantors, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The 2041 Notes are senior, unsecured obligations of the Company and interest is payable semi-annually in arrears at a fixed interest rate of 1.88% on May 15 and November 15 of each year. The 2041 Notes mature on November 15, 2041 unless earlier repurchased, redeemed, or converted, per the terms of the Indenture. Upon conversion, the Company will pay cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the 2041 Notes to be converted and pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of the Company’s common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of the Company’s common stock, at its election, in respect to the remainder, if any, of the Company’s conversion obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount of the 2041 Notes being converted.
Note Purchase Agreements. The Company’s Note Purchase and Private Shelf Agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”) with PGIM, Inc. (“Prudential”), an affiliate of Prudential Financial, Inc., and certain affiliates of Prudential, provides for the issuance of $20,000 of Series A Senior Secured Notes and the issuance of up to $105,000 of additional Senior Secured Notes (or any higher amount solely to the extent Prudential has provided written notice to the Company of its authorization of such a higher amount). Effective August 23, 2023, the Note Purchase Agreement was amended to increase the total amount of Senior Secured Notes that may be issued under the facility of the Note Purchase Agreement to $250,000. On April 24, 2025, the Note Purchase Agreement was amended to extend the period for issuing senior secured promissory notes under the Note Purchase Agreement from August 31, 2026 to April 24, 2028.
During 2017, the Company issued $20,000 of Series A Senior Secured Notes with a maturity date of August 23, 2027. During 2019, the Company issued $20,000 of additional Senior Secured Notes with a maturity date of April 30, 2029. The Note Purchase Agreement includes certain requirements and covenants with which the Company was in compliance at September 30, 2025. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $6,400 of Series A Senior Secured Notes and $12,000 of additional Senior
15

Secured Notes outstanding under the Note Purchase Agreement, leaving $231,600 available under the Note Purchase Agreement.
Note 5. Income Taxes
The Company’s tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimated annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items arising in that quarter. In each quarter, the estimated annual effective tax rate is updated and a year to date adjustment is made to the provision. The Company’s quarterly effective tax rate can be subject to significant change due to the effect of discrete items arising in a given quarter.
On July 4, 2025, the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” (“OB3 Act”) was signed into law. Among other changes, the OB3 Act includes key provisions that make 100% bonus depreciation permanent, allow for the expensing of domestic research costs, and modify the business interest expense limitation calculation. The applicable changes were incorporated into the Company’s income tax provision for the quarter and year to date ended September 30, 2025, resulting in an increase in the Company’s deferred tax expense, offset by a corresponding decrease in the Company’s current tax expense. The OB3 Act had an immaterial impact to the Company’s effective tax rate for the quarter and year to date ended September 30, 2025, and the Company does not expect the OB3 Act to have a material impact on the Company’s effective tax rate for 2025.
Income tax expense for the quarter and year to date ended September 30, 2025 was $4,276 and $9,255, respectively, for an effective tax rate of 21.7 percent and 25.7 percent, respectively. The effective tax rate for the quarter and year to date ended September 30, 2025 differed from the 21 percent U.S. federal statutory rate on pretax income primarily due to state income tax and income tax on foreign subsidiaries, partially offset by federal and state tax credits. In addition, for the year to date ended September 30, 2025, the effective tax rate differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate on pretax income due to the discrete tax impact related to the vesting of share based awards.
Income tax expense for the quarter and year to date ended September 30, 2024 was $7,554 and $23,924, respectively, for an effective tax rate of 24.0 percent and 23.8 percent, respectively. The effective tax rate for the quarter and year to date ended September 30, 2024 differed from the 21 percent U.S. federal statutory rate on pretax income primarily due to state income taxes and income taxes on foreign subsidiaries, partially offset by U.S. state and federal tax credits and the deduction applicable to export activity.

The repurchase program has no expiration date and may be modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time by the Company without prior notice. During the quarter and year to date ended September 30, 2025, the Company repurchased no shares under the share repurchase program. During the quarter and year to date ended September 30, 2024, the Company repurchased approximately 35,913 and 128,360 shares, respectively, of Company Stock for approximately $2,500 and $10,000, respectively.

Note 7. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company and its subsidiaries are, from time to time, a party to legal and regulatory proceedings arising in the ordinary course of its business. The Company accrues estimated costs for a contingency when management believes that a loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated.
On December 16, 2024, a putative securities class action, captioned Operating Engineers Construction Industry Miscellaneous Pension Fund v. MGP Ingredients, Inc. et al., was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company, two of its former Chief Executive Officers and its current Chief Financial Officer (the “Operating Engineers Action”). The Operating Engineers Action was brought on behalf of a putative class who acquired publicly traded MGP common stock between May 4, 2023 and October 30, 2024. On February 13, 2025, a second putative securities class action, captioned Bronstein v. MGP Ingredients, Inc. et al., was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern
17

District of New York against the same defendants (the “Bronstein Action”). The Bronstein Action was brought on behalf of a putative class who acquired publicly traded MGP securities between May 4, 2023 and October 30, 2024. Both actions assert securities fraud claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, in connection with statements made in the Company’s quarterly earnings releases and on earnings calls during the alleged class period. The Operating Engineers Action and Bronstein Action have been consolidated and transferred to the United States District Court for the District of Kansas, now captioned In re MGPI Ingredients, Inc. Securities Litigation. Lead Plaintiffs filed an Amended Complaint on May 15, 2025, which Defendants moved to dismiss on July 15, 2025. The Company believes there are substantial defenses to the claims asserted and intends to defend the lawsuit vigorously.
On January 23, 2025, a putative derivative lawsuit captioned Sebald v. Colo, et al., Case No. 2:25-cv-02034, was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Kansas against two of the Company’s former Chief Executive Officers, its current Chief Financial Officer, and the members of its Board of Directors (the “Sebald Action”). On March 17, 2025, a second putative derivative lawsuit captioned Reid v. Bratcher, et al., Case No. 2:25-cv-02127, was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Kansas against the same defendants (the “Reid Action”). On July 1, 2025, the respective plaintiffs in these cases filed a consolidated amended complaint (the “Consolidated Action”). On May 15, 2025, a third putative derivative lawsuit captioned Kruitwagen v. Bratcher, et al., Case No. 2:25-cv-02262, was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Kansas against the same defendants as in the Consolidated Action. The Company is a “Nominal Defendant” in the lawsuits, which reflects the fact that the lawsuits are maintained by the respective named plaintiffs on behalf of the Company and that the plaintiffs seek damages on the Company’s behalf. The complaints allege, among other things, that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties and violated federal securities laws by causing the Company to make false and/or misleading statements and/or omissions in public filings during the class period alleged in the securities action and also allege breaches of fiduciary duties by failing to maintain internal controls. The complaints also allege breaches of fiduciary duties by seeking shareholder approval of an equity incentive plan, and causing the Company to repurchase its own stock at artificially inflated prices. The complaints bring additional claims for unjust enrichment, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, aiding and abetting breaches of fiduciary duties, and waste of corporate assets and seek indemnity and contribution from the named current and former officers. On July 24, 2025 and July 28, 2025, the Court entered orders staying the Consolidated Action and Kruitwagen, respectively, pending an outcome on the motion to dismiss filed in the putative securities class action. The defendants believe there are substantial defenses to the claims asserted and intend to defend the lawsuits vigorously.
Note 8. Employee and Non-Employee Benefit Plans
Share-Based Compensation Plans. The Company has one equity-based compensation plan, the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2024 Plan”), which authorized 1,319,320 shares for issuance, subject to the adjustment and add-back provision of the 2024 Plan. The 2024 Plan provides for the awarding of stock options, stock appreciation rights, shares of restricted stock, RSUs, performance stock units (“PSUs”), and other stock-based awards for executive officers and other employees, as well as non-employee directors and certain consultants and advisors. As of September 30, 2025, 908,619 shares remain available for issuance under the 2024 Plan, with PSUs counted at the target level established on the award’s grant date.
Deferred Compensation Plan. The Company established an unfunded Executive Deferred Compensation Plan (the “EDC Plan”) effective June 30, 2018, with a purpose to attract and retain highly-compensated key employees by providing participants with an opportunity to defer receipt of a portion of their salary, bonus, and other specified compensation. The Company’s obligations under the EDC Plan change in conjunction with the performance of the participants’ investments, along with contributions to and withdrawals from the EDC Plan. Realized and unrealized gains (losses) on deferred compensation plan investments were included as a component of other income (expense), net on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. For the quarter and year to date ended September 30, 2025, the Company had a gain on deferred compensation plan investments of $73 and $121, respectively, and for the quarter and year to date ended September 30, 2024, the Company had a gain on deferred compensation plan investments of $196 and $482, respectively.
EDC Plan investments are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy since the investments trade with sufficient frequency and volume to enable the Company to obtain pricing information on an ongoing basis. At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the EDC Plan investments were $2,223 and $3,653, respectively, which were recorded in other assets on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The EDC Plan current liabilities were $661 and $1,520 at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, which were included in accrued expenses and other on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The EDC Plan non-current liabilities were $1,562 and $2,132 at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, and were included in other noncurrent liabilities on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Note 9. Operating Segments
At September 30, 2025, the Company had three segments: Branded Spirits, Distilling Solutions, and Ingredient Solutions. The Company’s reportable segments are based on the financial information the chief operating decision maker uses to allocate resources and evaluate performance of the business. The Branded Spirits segment consists of a portfolio of high quality branded spirits which are produced through distilleries and bottling facilities. The Distilling Solutions segment consists of food grade alcohol (primarily brown goods) and distillery co-products, such as distillers feed (commonly called dried distillers grain in the industry). The Distilling Solutions segment also includes warehouse services, such as barrel put away, barrel storage, and barrel retrieval services. The Ingredient Solutions segment consists of specialty starches and proteins as well as commodity starches and proteins. Intersegment sales and transfers are recorded at cost and are treated as a transfer of inventory. All intercompany revenues are eliminated in consolidation and are not reviewed when evaluating segment performance.
Operating profit for each segment is based on sales less identifiable operating expenses. Non-direct selling, general, and administrative expenses, interest expense, and other general miscellaneous expenses are excluded from segment operations and are classified as Corporate. Receivables, inventories, property, plant and equipment, leases, goodwill, and intangible assets have been identified with the segments to which they relate. All other assets are considered as Corporate.
The following tables present summarized financial information for each segment:

(a) Percentage points (“pp”).
Sales - Sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 were $130,912, a decrease of 19 percent compared to the year-ago quarter, which was the result of decreased sales in the Distilling Solutions and Branded Spirits segments, partially offset by increased sales in the Ingredient Solutions segment. Within the Distilling Solutions segment, sales were down 43 percent primarily due to decreased sales of brown goods. Within the Branded Spirits segment, sales were down 3 percent due primarily to decreased sales of brands in the value and other price tiers, partially offset by increased sales of brands within the premium plus price tier. Within the Ingredient Solutions segment, sales were up 9 percent, primarily due to increased sales of specialty wheat proteins and starches (see “Segment Results”).
Gross profit - Gross profit for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 was $49,433, a decrease of 25 percent compared to the year-ago quarter. The decrease was driven by decreased gross profit in each of the segments. Within the Distilling Solutions segment, gross profit decreased by $14,444, or 50 percent. Within the Ingredient Solutions segment, gross profit decreased by $1,712, or 36 percent. Within the Branded Spirits segment, gross profit decreased $226, or 1 percent (see “Segment Results”).
Advertising and promotion expenses - Advertising and promotion expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 were $6,691, a decrease of 31 percent compared to the year-ago quarter, primarily driven by the realignment of our advertising and promotion spend to brands we believe have the most attractive growth opportunities.
SG&A expenses - SG&A expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 were $18,926, an increase of 10 percent compared to the year-ago quarter, primarily driven by increased incentive compensation accrual as compared to the year-ago quarter, which was partially offset by our cost savings initiative.
22

Operating income - Operating income for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 decreased to $21,016 from $32,564 for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, primarily as a result of the decrease in gross profit in the Distilling Solutions and Ingredient Solutions segments and the increase in SG&A expenses. These decreases were partially offset by the change in the fair value of the contingent consideration liability and reduction in advertising and promotion expenses.

Income tax expense for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 was $7,554, for an effective tax rate of 24.0 percent. The decrease in income tax expense, quarter versus quarter, was due primarily to lower income before income taxes. The decrease in tax rate, quarter versus quarter, was primarily due to the proportionately larger impact of tax credits related to capital investments relative to income before taxes.

Sales of brands within the value price tier decreased, driven by lower sales volume and net price/mix primarily in certain cordial brands. Sales within the other category declined driven by decreased sales volume of our private label products. Sales within the premium plus price tier increased 3%, driven by increased sales volume reflecting our continued focus on the American whiskey and tequila categories. The increase in sales volume within the premium plus price tier was partially offset by decreased net price/mix.
Gross profit slightly decreased versus the prior year quarter by $226, or 1 percent, primarily driven by a decrease in net price/mix, partially offset by higher sales volume and reduced input costs. Gross margin for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 increased to 53.0 percent from 51.8 percent for the prior year quarter, driven primarily by increased sales in the premium plus price tier.

(d) Percentage points (“pp”).
Total sales of the Distilling Solutions segment for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 decreased by $31,038, or 43 percent, compared to the prior year quarter, primarily driven by lower brown goods sales. Brown goods sales volume decreased due to reduced customer demand resulting primarily from elevated industry-wide barrel inventory levels and the subsequent need of a number of our large customers to pause their whiskey purchases after completing their existing contracts. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in net price/mix of brown goods compared to the prior year quarter. White goods and other co-products sales decreased primarily due to a reduction in sales volume related to certain large customers, as well as reduced production volumes of co-products, primarily dried distillers grain. Warehouse services sales were slightly down as compared to the prior year quarter.
Gross profit decreased versus the prior year quarter by $14,444, or 50 percent, due to lower brown goods sales volume, partially offset by increased gross profit within warehouse services. Gross margin for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 decreased to 34.7 percent from 39.8 percent for the prior year quarter.

Total sales of the Distilling Solutions segment for the year to date ended September 30, 2025 decreased by $112,335, or 45 percent compared to the year-ago period, primarily driven by lower brown goods sales. Brown goods sales volume and net price/mix decreased primarily due to reduced customer demand resulting from elevated industry-wide barrel inventory levels. White goods and other co-products sales decreased primarily due to a reduction in sales volume resulting from phasing out a number of white goods customer contracts following the closure of our Atchison distillery, as well as reduced production volumes of co-products, primarily dried distillers grain. Warehouse services sales were slightly down as compared to the year-ago period.
Gross profit for the year to date ended September 30, 2025 decreased by $53,508 compared to the year-ago period, due to lower brown goods sales volume and net price/mix, partially offset by increased gross profit in white goods and other co-products due to favorable net price/mix as well as increased gross profit in warehouse services.

(d) Percentage points (“pp”).
Total sales of the Ingredient Solutions segment for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 increased by $2,365, or 9 percent, compared to the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily driven by increased sales volume of specialty wheat proteins and commodity wheat proteins driven by the conversion of new domestic customers that continued during the quarter. Additionally, the increase in sales was due to increased net price/mix of specialty wheat starches.
Gross profit decreased versus the prior year quarter by $1,712, or 36 percent. Gross margin for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 decreased to 10.3 percent from 17.6 percent for the prior year quarter. The decrease in gross profit was primarily driven by complexities and higher costs associated with the disposal of waste starch streams, elevated costs related to the commercialization of a new large volume textured protein customer, as well as unanticipated operational reliability challenges. During the quarter ended September 30, 2025, the biofuel facility began operations to help mitigate the disposal costs related to the waste starch streams. This project is one of many investments being made to reduce disposal costs and improve the overall reliability of our Ingredients Solutions operations. However, it will take time to realize the benefits of these cost mitigation and reliability initiatives. This decrease was partially offset by increased sales volume of specialty wheat proteins.

(d) Percentage points (“pp”).
Total sales of the Ingredient Solutions segment for the year to date ended September 30, 2025 decreased by $5,119, or 5 percent, compared to the prior year period. The decrease was primarily driven by decreased sales volume of specialty wheat starches and commodity wheat starches as well as decreased net/price mix of specialty wheat proteins. The declines in specialty wheat starches and proteins were due to supply challenges resulting from adverse weather and complexities associated with the closure of our Atchison distillery, as well as the timing of commercialization of new specialty wheat protein customers. These declines were partially offset by increased sales volume of specialty and commodity wheat proteins and increased net price/mix of specialty wheat starches.
Gross profit decreased by $4,975, or 28 percent for the year to date ended September 30, 2025 compared to the prior year period. Gross margin for the year to date ended September 30, 2025 decreased to 14.4 percent from 18.8 percent for the prior year period.

CASH FLOW, FINANCIAL CONDITION, AND LIQUIDITY
We believe our financial condition continues to be of high quality, as evidenced by our ability to generate adequate cash from operations while having ready access to capital at competitive rates.
Operating cash flow and borrowings through our Credit Agreement, Convertible Senior Notes, and Note Purchase Agreement (see Note 4, Corporate Borrowings) provide the primary sources of cash to fund operating needs and capital expenditures. These same sources of cash are used to fund stockholder dividends and other discretionary uses. Our overall liquidity reflects our strong business results and an effective cash management strategy that takes into account liquidity management, economic factors, and tax considerations. We expect our sources of cash to be adequate to provide for budgeted capital expenditures, potential mergers or acquisitions, and anticipated operating requirements for the next 12 months and beyond.

Operating Activities. Cash provided by operating activities for the year to date ended September 30, 2025 was $92,449. The cash provided by operating activities resulted primarily from adjustments for non-cash or non-operating charges of $46,344, including the change in fair value of contingent consideration, depreciation and amortization, and share-based compensation, net income of $26,799 and cash provided by operating assets and liabilities of $19,306. The primary drivers of the changes in operating assets and liabilities were $41,699 of cash provided by decreased accounts receivables, net, due to timing of customer payments and lower sales during the year to date period, and $7,689 related to increased accrued expenses and other, which related to an increase in our incentive compensation accrual. This was partially offset by $19,935 use of cash related to an increase in inventories, primarily due to an increase in barreled distillate, and $8,446 use of cash related to a decrease in accounts payable due to timing of vendor payments and lower costs during the year to date period.
Cash provided by operating activities for the year to date ended September 30, 2024 was $73,512. The cash provided by operating activities resulted primarily from net income of $76,463, adjustments for non-cash or non-operating charges of $32,845, including depreciation and amortization, the changes in fair value of contingent consideration, and share-based compensation, partially offset by cash used in operating assets and liabilities of $35,796. The primary drivers of the changes in operating assets and liabilities were $24,979 use of cash related to an increase in inventories, primarily due to an increase in barreled distillate, $10,627 use of cash related to a decrease in accounts payable due to timing of payments, $9,935 related to accrued expenses and other, which related to a decrease in our incentive compensation accrual, partially offset by $13,979 cash provided by decreased accounts receivables, net, due to timing of sales and customer payments during the year to date period as well as the closure of our Atchison distillery in December 2023.
Investing Activities. Cash used in investing activities for the year to date ended September 30, 2025 was $40,688, which resulted primarily from additions to property, plant, and equipment of $40,674 (see “Capital Spending”).

We expect to incur approximately $32,500 in capital expenditures in 2025, which includes capital expenditures for facility improvement and expansion, facility sustaining projects, and environmental, health, and safety projects. The difference between the amount of capital expenditures incurred and amount paid is due to the change in capital expenditures in accounts payable.

We maintain debt levels we consider appropriate after evaluating a number of factors, including cash flow expectations, cash requirements for ongoing operations, investment and financing plans (including brand development, merger and acquisition, Board-approved dividends, and share repurchase activities), and the overall cost of capital. Total debt was $268,723 (net of unamortized loan fees of $7,927) at September 30, 2025, and $323,541 (net of unamortized loan fees of $5,909) at December 31, 2024. We had net borrowings on debt of $52,800 for year to date ended September 30, 2025 and net proceeds on debt of $2,200 for the year to date ended September 30, 2024. Additionally, during the year to date ended September 30, 2025, we incurred $2,712 of loan fees associated with amending and restating our credit agreement.
Financial Condition and Liquidity. Our principal uses of cash in the ordinary course of business are for input costs used in our production processes, salaries, capital expenditures, and investments supporting our strategic plan, such as the aging of barreled distillate and potential mergers and acquisitions. Generally, during periods when commodity prices are rising, our operations require increased use of cash to support inventory levels.
Our principal sources of cash are product sales and borrowing on our various debt agreements. Under our debt agreements, we must meet certain financial covenants and restrictions, and at September 30, 2025, we met those covenants and restrictions.
At September 30, 2025, our current assets exceeded our current liabilities by $326,843, largely due to our inventories, at cost, of $384,523. At September 30, 2025, our cash balance was $13,447 and we have used our various debt agreements for liquidity purposes, with $443,000 available under our credit agreement for additional borrowings and $231,600 available under the Note Purchase Agreement (see Note 4, Corporate Borrowings). We anticipate being able to support our short-term liquidity and operating needs largely through cash generated from operations. We regularly assess our cash needs and the available sources to fund these needs. We utilize short-term and long-term debt to fund discretionary items, such as capital investments, dividend payments, and potential mergers and acquisitions. Subject to market conditions, we could also fund future mergers and acquisitions through the issuance of additional shares of Common Stock. In addition, we have strong operating results such that we believe financial institutions should provide sufficient credit funding to meet short-term financing requirements, if needed.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to commodity price and interest rate market risks. We monitor and manage these exposures as part of our overall risk management program. Our risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets with the goal to reduce the potentially adverse effects that the volatility of these markets may have on our operating results and financial condition.
Commodity Costs. Certain commodities we use in our production process, or input costs, expose us to market price risk due to volatility in the prices for those commodities. Through our grain supply contracts for our Lawrenceburg facility, our wheat flour supply contract for our Atchison facility, and our natural gas contracts for both facilities, we purchase grain, wheat flour, and natural gas, respectively, for delivery from one to 24 months into the future at negotiated prices. We have determined that the firm commitments to purchase grain, wheat flour, and natural gas under the terms of our supply contracts meet the normal purchases and sales exception as defined under Accounting Standards Codification 815, Derivatives and Hedging, because the quantities involved are for amounts to be consumed within the normal expected production process.
Interest Rate Exposures. Our various debt agreements (see Note 4, Corporate Borrowings) expose us to market risks arising from adverse changes in interest rates. Established procedures and internal processes govern the management of this market risk.
Increases in market interest rates would cause interest expense under our variable interest rate debt to increase and earnings before income taxes to decrease. The change in interest expense and earnings before income taxes would be dependent upon the weighted average outstanding borrowings under variable interest rate debt during the reporting period following an increase in market interest rates. Based on weighted average outstanding variable-rate borrowings at September 30, 2025, a 100 basis point increase over the current rates actually in effect at such date would increase our interest expense on an annual basis by $570. Based on weighted average outstanding fixed-rate borrowings at September 30, 2025, a 100 basis point increase in market rates would result in a decrease in the fair value of our outstanding fixed-rate debt of $15,891, and a 100 basis point decrease in market rates would result in an increase in the fair value of our outstanding fixed-rate debt of $18,446.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As of September 30, 2025, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have each reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (as amended, the “Exchange Act”)).
