NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)
Note 1 — Basis of Presentation
In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Universal Electronics Inc. and its subsidiaries contain all the adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature, except for the restructuring charges, as described in Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements. Information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"), have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). As used herein, the terms "Company", "UEI," "we," "us," and "our" refer to Universal Electronics Inc. and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates to the contrary.
Our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the "Risk Factors," "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk," and the "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" included in Items 1A, 7, 7A, and 8, respectively, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions, including those related to revenue recognition, allowance for credit losses, inventory valuation, impairment of long-lived assets and intangible assets, business combinations, income taxes and related valuation allowances and stock-based compensation expense. Actual results may differ from these assumptions and estimates, and they may be adjusted as more information becomes available. Any adjustment may be material.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
With the exception of the following policy, our significant accounting policies are unchanged from those disclosed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Leases
We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception and determine the classification of the lease, as either operating or finance, at commencement. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets, other accrued liabilities and long-term operating lease obligations on our consolidated balance sheets. We presently do not have any finance leases.
ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of the lease based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date, including the lease term, in determining the present value of lease payments. Operating lease ROU assets also factor in any lease payments made, initial direct costs and lease incentives received. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Some of our leases include options to extend with a range of three years to five years with two extensions at the then current market rate. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
When we commit to a plan to abandon an operating lease at a future date, the amortization of the operating lease ROU asset and depreciation of the associated leasehold improvements are accelerated based on the revised useful life of the operating lease.
Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet and are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. If applicable, we combine lease and non-lease components, which primarily relate to ancillary expenses associated with real estate leases such as common area maintenance charges and management fees.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
None.
Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Effective
In September 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2025-06, "Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software". This guidance removes all references to software development project stages so that the guidance is neutral to different software development methods. Therefore, under the ASU, software capitalization will begin when management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and when it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. The guidance is to be applied on a prospective basis, or on a modified transition approach or a retrospective transition approach, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets". This guidance allows entities to elect a practical expedient that assumes that the current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. The guidance is to be applied on a prospective basis, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, "Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses." This guidance requires additional disclosures by disaggregating the costs and expense line items that are presented on the face of the consolidated statements of operations. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning in 2027 and interim periods beginning in 2028, with early adoption permitted. This guidance requires a public company to apply the amendments either prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on our disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, "Income Taxes – Improvements to Tax Disclosures." The guidance expands income tax disclosures by requiring public business entities, on an annual basis, to disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. Additionally, this guidance requires that all entities disaggregate disclosures by jurisdiction on the amount of income taxes paid (net of refunds received), income or loss from continuing operations before income tax expense (or benefit) and income tax expense (or benefit) from continuing operations. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, and therefore will be effective beginning with our financial statements issued for the year ending December 31, 2025. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
We have assessed all other ASUs issued but not yet adopted and concluded that those not disclosed are not relevant to the Company or are not expected to have a material impact.

As part of our continued evaluation of our global manufacturing footprint and our overall cost optimization and return to profitability strategy, we made the decision to cease production activities and shut down our manufacturing facility in Mexico and to vacate and abandon our office space in Carlsbad, California. As a result of these actions, we reassessed our Mexico factory lease and recorded a decrease of $0.7 million and $0.8 million to our Mexico operating lease ROU asset and lease liability, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2025. In addition, the estimated useful lives of the Mexico and Carlsbad related ROU assets were revised to reflect shorter lease terms than those originally estimated at lease inception. A change in the estimated useful life of a long-lived asset represents a change in accounting estimate and is accounted for prospectively. The Mexico ROU asset is expected to be fully amortized by December 31, 2025. The Carlsbad ROU asset was fully amortized as of September 30, 2025 and we recognized accelerated amortization of $1.3 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Note 8 — Lines of Credit
U.S. Line of Credit
On December 16, 2024, we executed an amendment to our Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement ("Second Amended Credit Agreement") with U.S. Bank National Association, which provides for a revolving line of credit ("U.S. Credit Line") through April 30, 2026. We expect to renew the U.S. Credit Line prior to its expiration; however, no assurance can be given that future financing will be available or, if available, that we will be offered terms satisfactory to us. The U.S. Credit Line may be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes including acquisitions, share repurchases and capital expenditures.
The U.S. Credit Line has a maximum availability of up to $75.0 million, subject to meeting certain financial conditions, including an accounts receivable coverage ratio ("AR Ratio"). This AR Ratio is calculated monthly and adjusts the current U.S. Credit Line total availability. At September 30, 2025, the U.S. Credit Line total availability was $54.1 million based upon the AR Ratio. At October 23, 2025, the U.S. Credit Line total availability was $50.4 million based upon the AR Ratio.
Amounts available for borrowing under the U.S. Credit Line are reduced by the balance of any outstanding letters of credit, of which there was $0.5 million at September 30, 2025 and none at December 31, 2024.
All obligations under the U.S. Credit Line are secured by substantially all of our U.S. personal property and tangible and intangible assets, as well as a guaranty of the U.S. Credit Line by our wholly-owned subsidiary, Universal Electronics BV.
Under the Second Amended Credit Agreement, we pay interest on the U.S. Credit Line based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus a 3.00% margin. The Second Amended Credit Agreement also contains a facility fee of 0.25%. The interest rates in effect at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were 7.25% and 7.31%, respectively.
The Second Amended Credit Agreement includes financial covenants and contains other customary affirmative and negative covenants and events of default. Subsequent to December 31, 2024, our covenants are based upon a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and a maximum cash flow leverage ratio. We were in compliance with the covenants and conditions of the Second Amended Credit Agreement at September 30, 2025.
At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had none and $26.0 million outstanding under the U.S. Credit Line, respectively. At September 30, 2025, our remaining availability under our U.S. Credit Line was $53.6 million. Our total interest expense on borrowings under the U.S. Credit Line was $0.4 million and $1.0 million during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Our total interest expense on borrowings under the U.S. Credit Line was $1.4 million and $3.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Our total facility fee expense under the U.S. Credit Line was $48 thousand and $63 thousand during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Our total facility fee expense under the U.S. Credit Line was $142 thousand and $140 thousand during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

China Line of Credit
In August 2024, our subsidiary, Gemstar Technology (Yangzhou) Co. Ltd. ("GTY"), executed a Line of Credit Agreement (the "Line of Credit Agreement") with the Bank of China, which provides for a revolving line of credit (the "China Credit Line"). As a continuation of the agreement, on July 30, 2025, we executed an amendment to the Line of Credit Agreement, which extends the term of the China Credit Line to July 16, 2026. We expect to renew our China Credit Line prior to its expiration; however, no assurance can be given that future financing will be available or, if available, that we will be offered terms satisfactory to us. The China Credit Line may be used for working capital purposes.
The China Credit Line had a maximum availability of up to RMB 130.0 million (approximately $18.3 million), subject to meeting certain financial conditions.
Amounts available for borrowing under the China Credit Line are reduced by the balance of any outstanding letters of credit, of which there were none at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
All obligations under the China Credit Line are secured by GTY's buildings and land use rights.
Under the Line of Credit Agreement, we pay interest on the China Credit Line based on the one-year rate from the National Interbank Funding Center less a 0.1% margin. There are no associated commitment fees on the China Credit Line. The interest rates in effect at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were 2.92% and 3.07%, respectively.
The Line of Credit Agreement includes financial covenants and contains other customary affirmative and negative covenants and events of default. Our covenants are based on a debt to asset ratio and a dividends paid to net income ratio. We were in compliance with the covenants and conditions of the Line of Credit Agreement at and during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.
At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had RMB 130.0 million (approximately $18.3 million) and RMB 80.0 million (approximately $11.2 million), respectively, outstanding under the China Credit Line. At September 30, 2025, we had no remaining availability under our China Credit Line. Our total interest expense on borrowings under the China Credit Line was RMB 0.8 million (approximately $0.1 million) and RMB 21 thousand (approximately $3 thousand) during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Our total interest expense on borrowings under the China Credit Line was RMB $2.1 million (approximately $0.3 million) and RMB 21 thousand (approximately $3 thousand) during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Note 9 — Income Taxes
We recorded income tax expense of $2.6 million and $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. We recorded income tax expense of $6.6 million and $6.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The income tax expense recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024 is primarily attributable to the mix of pre-tax income among jurisdictions, including losses not benefited as a result of a valuation allowance.
The difference between the Company's effective tax rate and the 21.0% U.S. federal statutory rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily related to the mix of pre-tax income and loss among jurisdictions and permanent tax items, including a tax on global intangible low-taxed income. The Company's income tax provision can be affected by other factors, including changes in the tax laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which we operate, changes in the valuation allowances on deferred tax assets, and other discrete items.
At December 31, 2024, we assessed the realizability of the Company's deferred tax assets by considering whether it is more likely than not 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. We considered the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, tax planning strategies and projected future taxable income in making this assessment. At December 31, 2024, we had a three-year cumulative operating loss for our U.S. operations and have accordingly provided a valuation allowance on our U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, there was no change to our U.S. valuation allowance position.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2025
(Unaudited)
At September 30, 2025, we had gross unrecognized tax benefits of $3.7 million, including interest and penalties, which, if not for the valuation allowance recorded against the state research and experimentation income tax credit, would affect the annual effective tax rate if these tax benefits are realized. Further, we are unaware of any positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase within the next twelve months. Based on U.S. federal, state and foreign statute expirations in various jurisdictions, we do not anticipate a decrease in unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months. We have classified uncertain tax positions as non-current income tax liabilities unless they are expected to be paid within one year.
We have elected to classify interest and penalties as a component of tax expense. Accrued interest and penalties are immaterial at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 and are included in unrecognized tax benefits.
On July 4, 2025, H.R. 1, commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, was enacted in the United States. H.R. 1 includes significant provisions, including the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, modifications to the U.S. international tax framework, and the restoration of favorable tax treatment for certain business provisions. This legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions becoming effective beginning in 2025 and others implemented through 2027. Due to the U.S. valuation allowance position, the legislation is not expected to have a material impact on our estimated annual effective tax rate or cash tax position.
Note 10 — Accrued Compensation
In 2025, we executed a global reduction in force as part of our ongoing cost optimization and return to profitability strategy. The reductions primarily impacted roles within the engineering and research and development functions. As a result, we recognized severance expenses of $1.7 million and $2.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.
The components of accrued compensation were as follows:

(In thousands) | September 30, 2025 |  | December 31, 2024
Accrued bonus | $ | 1,405 |  |  | $ | 2,386 |

Social insurance is comprised of various components such as pension, medical insurance, job injury insurance, unemployment insurance, and a housing assistance fund, and is administered in a manner similar to social security in the United States. This amount represents our estimate of the amounts due to the PRC government for social insurance on September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Restructuring Activities
2023 - 2024 Restructuring
Asia
In conjunction with our plan to restructure and optimize our manufacturing footprint while reducing our concentration risk in the PRC, we stopped all production activities and began to shut down our southwestern China factory beginning in the third quarter of 2023. In addition, during the fourth quarter of 2024, we stopped production activities and shut down one of our eastern PRC factories. We incurred no severance or other exit costs during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and $0.1 million of severance and $0.1 million of other exit costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. These costs are included within factory restructuring charges on our consolidated statements of operations. We have recognized a total of $4.6 million in factory restructuring charges since September 2023. This factory restructuring was completed in the fourth quarter of 2024 and we do not expect to incur any further expenses associated with this plan.
Mexico
As part of our plan to restructure and optimize our factory footprint, we worked to downsize our factory in Mexico due to decreased demand in the U.S. market and our Vietnam facility's ability to supply our North American customers. We leased a smaller facility and reduced our factory headcount during the three months ended September 30, 2024. We incurred no severance or other exit costs during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and revised our severance accrual downward by $0.1 million and incurred $0.2 million of other exit costs during the three months ended September 30, 2024. We incurred no severance or other exit costs during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and $1.3 million of severance and $1.3 million of other exit costs during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. These costs are included within factory restructuring charges on our consolidated statements of operations. We have recognized a total of $3.0 million in factory restructuring charges since January 2024. This factory restructuring was completed in the fourth quarter of 2024 and we do not expect to incur any further expenses associated with the 2023-2024 restructuring plan.
Restructuring liabilities are included in accrued compensation, accounts payable and other accrued liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. Total restructuring activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 are as follows:

2025 Restructuring
Mexico
We have continued to evaluate our global manufacturing footprint as part of our overall cost optimization and return to profitability strategy. As a result, in July 2025, we decided to cease all production activities and began to shut down our Mexico manufacturing facility. We incurred $0.7 million of severance and $0.1 million of other exit costs during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. These costs are included within factory restructuring charges on our consolidated statements of operations. We expect this restructuring to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2025, with total estimated restructuring charges of $1.1 million, including $0.3 million expected to be recognized subsequent to September 30, 2025.

Litigation
Roku Matters
UEI and Roku Inc. ("Roku") and certain of its customers have been in litigation in various forums since 2018 — i.e., two actions in the Central District of California ("CDCA") beginning in 2018 and 2020 including related cases against certain of Roku's customers (collectively, the "CDCA cases"), the International Trade Commission ("ITC"), the Patent and Trademark Office ("PTO") (ex parte reexams) and the Patent and Trademark Appeals Board ("PTAB"). The CDCA cases have all been stayed on various grounds since 2019. The 2018 case was stayed in November 2019 pending resolution of Roku initiated PTO and PTAB matters, all of which have since been resolved.
The 2020 case was also immediately stayed due to UEI's related ITC action against Roku, in which UEI ultimately prevailed when on July 9, 2021, the Administrative Law Judge ("ALJ") issued an initial determination finding Roku in violation of
22

Table of Contents
UNIVERSAL ELECTRONICS INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2025
(Unaudited)
Section 337. The Commission issued a final determination on November 10, 2021, affirming the ALJ’s finding. The Commission then issued a limited exclusion order and cease and desist order against Roku, which went into effect following the expiration of the Presidential Review Period on January 9, 2022. The Federal Circuit affirmed on January 19, 2024. Following UEI's win and affirmance by the Federal Circuit, Roku sought rehearing en banc and sought cert from the Supreme Court on a domestic industry question. On January 13, 2025, the Supreme Court denied cert.
While this ITC matter has been finally resolved and Roku has no more ability to appeal, we have agreed to continue the stay of the CDCA cases pending the outcome of one final PTAB action involving one of our patents. UEI and Roku participated in a hearing on July 28, 2025 regarding the consolidation of the 2018 and 2020 cases, the stay of the cases, and amending the claims that UEI would be allowed to move forward with a consolidated case by the court if unstayed. On July 29, 2025 the Judge issued an order lifting the stay, consolidating the cases and allowing UEI to move forward on 25 claims in the case. The Court held a scheduling conference for the consolidated district court case on September 29, 2025, where the Court set various dates and deadlines for the case, including a trial date of March 16, 2027.
Roku also filed its own retaliatory ITC action against UEI and certain of our customers on two patents it purchased for this purpose. Roku’s action failed when on June 24, 2022, the ALJ found one of Roku’s patents to be invalid as indefinite. Thereafter, on June 28, 2022, the ALJ issued its initial determination ("ID") fully exonerating us and our customers finding Roku’s second patent invalid and that Roku failed to establish the requisite domestic industry and thus no violation of the Tariff Act. Roku and UEI filed petitions to appeal certain portions of the ID. On October 28, 2022, the full ITC issued its final determination affirming the ID, ruling there was no violation of the Tariff Act and terminated the investigation. In December 2022, Roku filed an appeal. Further, on October 23, 2023, the PTAB issued its Final Written Decision invalidating all of Roku's infringement claims. Roku also filed an appeal of this decision. Oral argument occurred May 9, 2025. On June 17, 2025, the Federal Circuit affirmed the PTAB decision that invalidated the Roku patent and also remanded the case to the PTAB with respect to one remaining claim. We expect a decision with respect to the one remaining claim from the PTAB in late 2025 or early 2026. As a companion to its ITC request, on April 8, 2021, Roku also filed a lawsuit against us in Federal CDCA alleging that we are infringing the same two patents they alleged were infringed in the ITC investigation explained above. This District Court case has been stayed pending their ITC case, and will likely continue to be stayed pending the conclusion of Roku's appeal of their ITC case.
Court of International Trade Action against the United States of America, et. al.
On October 9, 2020, we and our subsidiaries, Ecolink Intelligent Technology, Inc. ("Ecolink") and RCS Technology, LLC ("RCS"), filed an amended complaint (20-cv-00670) in the Court of International Trade (the "CIT") against the United States of America; the Office of the United States Trade Representative; Robert E. Lighthizer, U.S. Trade Representative; U.S. Customs & Border Protection; and Mark A. Morgan, U.S. Customs & Border Protection Acting Commissioner, challenging both the substantive and procedural processes followed by the United States Trade Representative ("USTR") when instituting Section 301 Tariffs on imports from the PRC under Lists 3 and 4A.
On January 8, 2025, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit ("USCAFC") heard oral arguments on the appeal by the lead plaintiff from the CIT March 17, 2023 decision in which the CIT sustained the List 3 and List 4 tariffs, concluding that USTR's rationale in support of the tariffs was not impermissibly post hoc. A decision from the USCAFC is expected by the end of 2025.
Tongshun Matters
On January 23, 2024, Tongshun Company ("TS") filed suit against one of our subsidiaries, Gemstar Technology (Yangzhou) Co. Ltd. ("GTY"), claiming among other things, breach of an employment agency, and as is standard in Chinese litigation matters such as these, TS requested the Court to order a hold on GTY's bank account for the total claimed amount. On February 8, 2024, we deposited RMB 35.0 million (approximately $4.9 million) with the court. On July 12, 2024, we were refunded RMB 10.0 million (approximately $1.4 million) of the original deposit. This deposit was included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on our consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2024. On December 20, 2024, the Jiangsu Province Baoying People’s Court rendered a decision in favor of TS and ordered a judgment of RMB 27.4 million (approximately $3.8 million) plus interest and costs totaling approximately RMB 30.4 million (approximately $4.2 million). We recorded an accrual of RMB 30.4 million (approximately $4.2 million) for this judgment during the fourth quarter of 2024. This accrual is included in other accrued expenses on our consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2024. We filed an appeal of this judgment and on May

20, 2025, the Jiangsu Province Yangzhou Intermediate People's Court affirmed the lower court’s decision in its entirety. The full judgment amount of RMB 30.4 million (approximately $4.2 million) was paid to TS during the second quarter of 2025. Both the deposit and accrual have been released from our consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2025. GTY has the right to make a further and final appeal to the highest court of the province. GTY has not yet determined whether it will pursue an appeal.
IT Convergence Matters
In mid-2024, an arbitration proceeding commenced between UEI and IT Convergence, Inc. ("IT Convergence"). IT Convergence has alleged misappropriation of confidential information and theft of trade secrets. We have denied these claims and have filed a counterclaim asserting breach of contract. The arbitration hearing took place in August 2025 and the arbitrator issued his decision on October 29, 2025. After making rulings on various claims and counterclaims, the arbitrator awarded the net amount of approximately $0.2 million in favor of UEI and against IT Convergence. Each party has 90 days to appeal the arbitration decision to a regular court. It is not yet known if either party will appeal the decision.
Other Litigation Matters
There are no other material pending legal proceedings to which we or any of our subsidiaries is a party or of which our respective property is the subject. However, as is typical in our industry and to the nature and kind of business in which we are engaged, from time to time, various claims, charges and litigation are asserted or commenced by third parties against us or by us against third parties arising from or related to product liability, infringement of patent or other intellectual property rights, breach of warranty, contractual relations, or employee relations. The amounts claimed may be substantial, but may not bear any reasonable relationship to the merits of the claims or the extent of any real risk of court awards assessed against us or in our favor. However, no assurances can be made as to the outcome of any of these matters, nor can we estimate the range of potential losses to us. In our opinion, final judgments, if any, which might be rendered against us in potential or pending litigation would not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. Moreover, we believe that our products do not infringe any third parties' patents or other intellectual property rights.
We maintain directors' and officers' liability insurance which insures our individual directors and officers against certain claims, as well as attorney's fees and related expenses incurred in connection with the defense of such claims.
Note 13 — Treasury Stock
From time to time, our Board of Directors authorizes management to repurchase shares of our issued and outstanding common stock. On October 26, 2023, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program with an effective date of November 7, 2023 (the "Share Repurchase Program"). Pursuant to the Share Repurchase Program, we are authorized to repurchase up to 1,000,000 shares of our common stock and to date, we have repurchased 221,638 shares of our common stock. On November 4, 2025, our Board of Directors authorized management to continue to execute under the Share Repurchase Program. As a result, pursuant to this authorization, we may, from time to time, repurchase up to the lesser of $3.5 million worth of our common stock or 778,362 shares (the total remaining number of shares available for repurchase under the Share Repurchase Program). This authorization will remain in effect until such time as the Board of Directors terminates the authorization or the Share Repurchase Program is executed in full. We may utilize various methods to effect the repurchases, including in privately negotiated and/or open-market transactions, and pursuant to plans complying with Rule 10b5-1 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Neither this authorization nor the Share Repurchase Program obligates us to repurchase any shares of our common stock, and any repurchase of shares will be subject to market and other conditions and may be discontinued at any time.
We also repurchase shares of our issued and outstanding common stock to satisfy income tax withholding obligations relating to the stock-based compensation of our employees and directors and/or the cost of stock option exercises.

Note 15 — Other Income (Expense), Net
The Central Bank of Argentina maintains certain currency controls that limit the amount of U.S. Dollars that may be remitted from Argentine entities, including certain of our customers. As a result of these controls, an indirect foreign exchange mechanism known as a Blue Chip Swap ("BCS") emerged in Argentina, which allows entities to remit U.S. Dollars from Argentina through the purchase and sale of BCS securities. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, in order to collect an open accounts receivable balance with an Argentine customer, we purchased $2.5 million and sold $2.3 million of BCS securities and incurred a loss on the transactions of $0.2 million which is recorded in other income (expense) on our consolidated statements of operations.
Other income (expense), net consisted of the following:

Macroeconomic Conditions
We have been negatively impacted and we expect to continue to be negatively impacted by adverse macroeconomic conditions, including new tariffs imposed or to be imposed on goods manufactured in Vietnam, Taiwan, the PRC, and Mexico, and reduced consumer spending on durable goods. Economic tensions and changes in international trade policies, including the recent widespread tariffs announced by the U.S. on its major trading partners, higher tariffs on imported goods, actions taken in response (such as retaliatory tariffs or other trade protectionist measures or the renegotiation of free trade agreements), could also further impact the global market for our products. The full impact of these governmental actions on macroeconomic conditions and on our business is uncertain and difficult to predict and may result in lower sales and/or cost increases, which would negatively impact our gross margins and overall financial results. Management will continue to seek ways to lessen the impact these pressures may have on our margins and financial results; however, these mitigation efforts may not be successful and these pressures may have a material adverse effect on our business.
Manufacturing Footprint
We have continued to evaluate our global manufacturing footprint as part of our overall cost optimization and return to profitability strategy. In late July 2025, our Board approved a plan to shut down our Mexico manufacturing facility based upon strong productivity at our Vietnam factory and decreased demand in our home entertainment channel. We expect this shut down to be completed by the end of 2025 with additional shutdown-related expenses recorded throughout the remainder of the year.
Short-Term Employee Furlough
In October 2025, we announced a short-term furlough program affecting approximately 4.3% of our workforce. This action is taken in response to cost containment efforts, and was designed to align labor costs with current business activity levels during the year-end holiday season, while preserving long-term employment relationships. The furloughs are temporary in nature, with affected employees returning to work after 80 hours. During the furlough period, the Company will continue to provide certain benefits to affected employees, including healthcare coverage. The anticipated impact of this furlough program is expected to modestly reduce labor-related expenses and support ongoing cost management objectives.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, inventory valuation and income taxes. Actual results may differ from these judgments and estimates, and they may be adjusted as more information becomes available. Any adjustment may be significant and may have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
An accounting estimate is deemed to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, if different estimates reasonably may have been used, or if changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur may materially impact the financial statements. We do not believe that there have been any significant changes during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies and estimates in Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" contained in our 2024 Form 10-K.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2025 versus Three Months Ended September 30, 2024
Net sales. Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2025 were $90.6 million compared to $102.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. Net sales by channel were as follows:

| Three Months Ended September 30,
(In thousands) | 2025 |  | 2024
Connected home | $ | 29,793 |  |  | $ | 26,368 |
Home entertainment | 60,759 |  |  | 75,705 |
Total net sales | $ | 90,552 |  |  | $ | 102,073 |

Net sales in connected home were $29.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $26.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. This growth is driven primarily by shipments to large climate control and home automation customers relating to projects won over the past couple of years.
Net sales in home entertainment were $60.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $75.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease in sales within the home entertainment channel was primarily driven by lower demand for subscription broadcasting products in Europe and Latin America, particularly for basic remote controls with lower price points and limited or no advanced features. In addition, several customers in the consumer electronics industry experienced reduced demand for televisions, which led to a corresponding decline in remote control sales in this channel. The retail market also remains weak, reflecting elevated inventory levels and soft sell-through performance.
Gross profit. Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was $25.1 million compared to $30.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. Gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased to 27.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from 30.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decline in gross margin primarily reflects a one-time impairment charge of approximately $1.2 million related to machinery and equipment that will no longer be utilized following the planned closure of our Mexico facility by the end of 2025. This charge reduced the gross margin rate by approximately 130 basis points. In addition, higher tariff costs and unfavorable sales mix together contributed to an additional 270 basis point decline in gross margin during the period. These pressures were partially offset by realized procurement savings, which improved gross margin by approximately 80 basis points. We also benefited from favorable foreign exchange movements driven by a weaker U.S. Dollar relative to the Euro and British Pound and a stronger U.S. Dollar relative to Vietnamese Dong, resulting in an additional 80 basis points of margin improvement.
Research and development ("R&D") expenses. R&D expenses decreased to $6.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from $7.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 attributable to reductions in payroll and related personnel expenses following headcount optimization actions.

Table of Contents
Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses. SG&A expenses decreased to $22.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from $22.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease reflects lower volume-driven expenses of $0.9 million, consistent with the decline in sales volume. In addition, ongoing cost-reduction initiatives, including organizational rightsizing, resulted in savings from headcount reductions. People-related expenses decreased by $1.8 million, complemented by an additional $1.0 million reduction in other discretionary spending. These savings were largely offset by one-time charges incurred during the period, including $1.3 million related to the abandonment of office space in Carlsbad, California and $1.7 million of severance costs associated with our global reduction in force.
Factory restructuring charges. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded $0.8 million in expense, including severance and moving costs associated with the closure of our factory in Mexico. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, we recorded $0.1 million in expense, which included severance and moving costs associated with the streamlining of our factory in Mexico.
Interest income (expense), net. Interest expense, net decreased to $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from $0.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, as a result of a lower average loan balance and lower interest rates.
Other income (expense), net. Other expense, net was $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to other income, net of $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. This increase was attributable to foreign currency losses arising from the persistent weakness of the U.S. Dollar in the third quarter of 2025.
Provision for income taxes. Income tax expense was $2.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, relative to a pre-tax loss of $5.8 million, compared to income tax expense of $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, relative to a pre-tax loss of $0.2 million. Consistent with 2024, we expect the U.S. to be in a pre-tax loss position without benefit for the full year 2025, resulting in an elevated effective tax rate.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 versus Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024
Net sales. Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 were $280.5 million compared to $284.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Net sales by channel were as follows:

| Nine Months Ended September 30,
(In thousands) | 2025 |  | 2024
Connected home | $ | 95,621 |  |  | $ | 73,830 |
Home entertainment | 184,922 |  |  | 210,595 |
Total net sales | $ | 280,543 |  |  | $ | 284,425 |

Net sales in connected home were $95.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $73.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. This growth is driven primarily by shipments to large climate control and home automation customers relating to projects won over the past couple of years.
Net sales in home entertainment were $184.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $210.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease primarily reflects lower demand for subscription broadcasting products in Europe and Latin America, particularly basic remote control models at lower price points and limited to no advanced features. In addition, reduced demand for televisions among certain consumer electronics customers contributed to a corresponding decline in remote control sales within this channel.
Gross profit. Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $80.4 million compared to $82.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased to 28.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from 29.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decline in gross margin primarily reflects a one-time impairment charge of approximately $1.2 million related to machinery and equipment that will no longer be utilized following the planned closure of our Mexico facility by the end of 2025. This charge reduced the gross margin rate by approximately 40 basis points. In addition, an unfavorable sales mix contributed an additional 80 basis point decline in gross margin during the period. These pressures were partially offset by favorable foreign exchange impacts driven by a stronger U.S. Dollar relative to the Mexican Peso and Vietnamese Dong and a weaker U.S. Dollar relative to the Euro and British Pound, which together provided approximately 90 basis points of margin improvement.

R&D expenses. R&D expenses decreased to $20.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from $22.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 attributable to reductions in payroll and related personnel expenses following headcount optimization actions.
SG&A expenses. SG&A expenses decreased to $65.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from $68.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease reflects lower volume-driven expenses of $1.3 million, consistent with the decline in sales volume. In addition, ongoing cost-reduction initiatives, including organizational rightsizing, resulted in savings from headcount reductions. People-related expenses decreased by $3.3 million, complemented by an additional $1.9 million reduction in other discretionary spending. These reductions were partially offset by one-time charges incurred during the period, including $1.3 million related to the abandonment of office space in Carlsbad, California, $2.3 million of severance costs associated with our global reduction in force and $0.6 million related to additional director compensation.
Factory restructuring charges. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we recorded $0.8 million in expense, including severance and moving costs associated with the closure of our factory in Mexico. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we recorded $2.7 million in expense, which included severance and moving costs associated with the closure of our southern China factory and the streamlining of our factory in Mexico.
Interest income (expense), net. Interest expense, net decreased to $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from $2.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as a result of a lower average loan balance and lower interest rates.
Other income (expense), net. Other expense, net was $2.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to other income, net of $0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. This increase was attributable to foreign currency losses arising from the persistent weakness of the U.S. Dollar in 2025.
Provision for income taxes. Income tax expense was $6.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, relative to a pre-tax loss of $10.9 million, compared to income tax expense of $6.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, relative to a pre-tax loss of $13.5 million. Consistent with 2024, we expect the U.S. to be in a pre-tax loss position without benefit for the full year 2025, resulting in an elevated effective tax rate.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources of Cash
Historically, we have utilized cash provided from operations as our primary source of liquidity, as internally generated cash flows have typically been sufficient to support our business operations, capital expenditures and discretionary share repurchases. When needed, we have utilized our revolving lines of credit to fund operations, share repurchases and acquisitions. We anticipate that we will continue to utilize both cash flows from operations and our revolving lines of credit to support ongoing business operations, capital expenditures, discretionary share repurchases and potential acquisitions. We believe our current cash balances, anticipated cash flow to be generated from operations and available borrowing resources will be sufficient to cover expected cash outlays for at least the next twelve months and for the foreseeable future thereafter; however, because our cash is located in various jurisdictions throughout the world, we may at times need to increase borrowing from our revolving lines of credit or take on additional debt until we are able to transfer cash among our various entities.
Our liquidity is subject to various risks including the risks discussed under "Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk."

(In thousands) | September 30, 2025 |  | December 31, 2024
Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 31,506 |  |  | $ | 26,783 |
Available borrowing resources | $ | 53,600 |  |  | $ | 32,300 |

Cash and cash equivalents – On September 30, 2025, we had $2.7 million, $11.6 million, $4.4 million, $7.5 million and $5.3 million of cash and cash equivalents in North America, the PRC, Asia (excluding the PRC), Europe, and South America, respectively. We attempt to mitigate our exposure to liquidity, credit and other relevant risks by placing our cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions we believe are high quality.

Our cash balances are held in numerous locations throughout the world. The majority of our cash is held outside of the United States and may be repatriated to the United States but, under current law, may be subject to federal and state income taxes and foreign withholding taxes. Additionally, repatriation of some foreign balances is restricted by local laws.
Available Borrowing Resources – Our Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement ("Second Amended Credit Agreement") with U.S. Bank National Association provides for a revolving line of credit ("U.S. Credit Line") that expires on April 30, 2026. We expect to renew the U.S. Credit Line prior to its expiration; however, no assurance can be given that future financing will be available or, if available, that we will be offered terms satisfactory to us.
The U.S. Credit Line has a maximum availability of up to $75.0 million, subject to meeting certain financial conditions, including an accounts receivable coverage ratio ("AR Ratio"). This AR Ratio is calculated monthly and adjusts the current U.S. Credit Line total availability. At September 30, 2025, the U.S. Credit Line total availability was $54.1 million based upon the AR Ratio. At October 23, 2025, the U.S. Credit Line total availability was $50.4 million based upon the AR Ratio.
The U.S. Credit Line may be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes including acquisitions, share repurchases and capital expenditures. Amounts available for borrowing under the U.S. Credit Line are reduced by the balance of any outstanding letters of credit, of which there were $0.5 million at September 30, 2025. At September 30, 2025, we had no outstanding balance on our U.S. Credit Line and $53.6 million of availability.
Our subsidiary, Gemstar Technology (Yangzhou) Co. Ltd. ("GTY"), has a Line of Credit Agreement ("Line of Credit Agreement") with the Bank of China, which provides for a revolving line of credit ("China Credit Line" and, together with the U.S. Credit Line, "Credit Lines"). As a continuation of the agreement, on July 30, 2025, we executed an amendment to the Line of Credit Agreement, which extends the term of the China Credit Line to July 16, 2026. We expect to renew our China Credit Line prior to its expiration; however, no assurance can be given that future financing will be available or, if available, that we will be offered terms satisfactory to us.
At September 30, 2025, the China Credit Line had a maximum availability of up to RMB 130.0 million (approximately $18.3 million), subject to meeting certain financial conditions.
The China Credit Line may be used for working capital purposes. Amounts available for borrowing under the China Credit Line are reduced by the balance of any outstanding letters of credit, of which there were none at September 30, 2025. At September 30, 2025, we had an outstanding balance of RMB 130.0 million (approximately $18.3 million) on our China Credit Line and no remaining availability.
See Note 8 contained in the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" for further information regarding our Credit Lines.

Table of Contents
Net cash provided by operating activities was $27.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $8.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The improvement in operating cash flows primarily reflects changes in working capital, particularly in accounts receivable and contract assets, as well as improved inventory management. Net loss was $17.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to net loss of $19.5 million in the prior-year period. Depreciation and amortization expense was $11.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $13.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to lower capital expenditures in recent years, consistent with the decline in production volumes. Inventories decreased by $1.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to an increase of $0.5 million during the same period in 2024, reflecting improved inventory management practices. A decrease in accounts receivable and contract assets, mainly due to lower sales outstanding, resulted in cash inflows of $38.9 million in 2025 compared to $5.4 million in 2024. Days sales outstanding improved to 72 days at September 30, 2025, from 91 days at September 30, 2024. A decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, primarily driven by lower inventory purchases and timing of payments, resulted in cash outflows of $22.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $0.1 million in the prior-year period. Additionally, a decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets, primarily related to the release of a deposit associated with our litigation with Tongshun Company, generated cash inflows of $5.7 million in 2025 compared to $0.8 million in 2024.
Net cash used for investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $5.7 million, of which $2.5 million, $3.1 million and $2.4 million was used for the purchase of Blue Chip Swap securities, capital expenditures and the development of patents, respectively. Offsetting these amounts was $2.3 million received upon the sale of Blue Chip Swap securities. Net cash used for investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $6.7 million, of which $3.5 million and $3.2 million was used for capital expenditures and the development of patents, respectively.
Future cash flows used for investing activities are largely dependent on the timing and amount of capital expenditures and the development of patents, respectively. We estimate that we will incur between $2.0 million and $3.0 million during the remainder of 2025.
Net cash used for financing activities was $19.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $17.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The primary financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 were borrowings and repayments on our Credit Lines and repurchases of shares of our common stock. Net repayments on our Credit Lines were $19.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $15.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we repurchased 107,000 shares of our common stock at a cost of $0.8 million compared to our repurchase of 200,552 shares at a cost of $1.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Future cash flows used for financing activities are affected by our financing needs, which are largely dependent on the level of cash provided by or used in operations and the level of cash used in investing activities. Additionally, potential future repurchases of shares of our common stock will impact our cash flows used for financing activities. See Note 13 contained in the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" for further information regarding our share repurchase programs.
Material Cash Commitments – The following table summarizes our material cash commitments and the effect these commitments are expected to have on our cash flows in future periods:

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to various market risks, including interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. We have established policies, procedures and internal processes governing our management of these risks and the use of financial instruments to mitigate our risk exposure.
Interest Rate Risk
We are exposed to interest rate risk related to our debt. From time to time, we borrow amounts on our Credit Lines for working capital and other liquidity needs. Under the Second Amended Credit Agreement, we pay interest on outstanding borrowings on our U.S. Credit Line based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus an applicable margin as defined in the Second Amended Credit Agreement. Under our Line of Credit Agreement, we pay interest on outstanding borrowings on our China Credit Line based on the one-year rate from the National Interbank Funding Center, less a 0.1% margin. Accordingly, changes in interest rates would impact our results of operations in future periods. A 100 basis point increase in interest rates would have an approximately $0.2 million annual impact on net income based on our outstanding Credit Lines balance at September 30, 2025.
We cannot make any assurances that we will not need to borrow additional amounts in the future or that funds from the existing Credit Lines will continue to be available to us or that other funds will be extended to us under comparable terms or at all. If funding is not available to us at a time when we need to borrow, we would have to use our cash reserves, including potentially repatriating cash from foreign jurisdictions, which may have a material adverse effect on our operating results, financial position and cash flows.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
At September 30, 2025, we had wholly-owned subsidiaries in Brazil, the British Virgin Islands, France, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Italy, Japan, Korea, Mexico, the Netherlands, the PRC, Singapore, Spain, United Kingdom and Vietnam. We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk inherent in our sales commitments, anticipated sales, anticipated purchases, operating expenses, assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. The most significant foreign currencies to our operations are the Chinese Yuan Renminbi, Euro, British Pound, Mexican Peso, Vietnamese Dong, Indian Rupee, Hong Kong Dollar, Brazilian Real, Japanese Yen and Korean Won. Our most significant foreign currency exposure is to the Chinese Yuan Renminbi as this is the functional currency of our PRC-based factory where the majority of our products originate. If the Chinese Yuan Renminbi were to strengthen against the U.S. Dollar, our manufacturing costs would increase. We are generally a net payor of the Chinese Yuan Renminbi, Mexican Peso, Vietnamese Dong, Indian Rupee, Hong Kong Dollar, Japanese Yen and Korean Won and therefore benefit from a stronger U.S. Dollar and are adversely affected by a weaker U.S. Dollar relative to the foreign currency. For the Euro, British Pound and Brazilian Real, we are generally a net receiver of the foreign currency and therefore benefit from a weaker U.S. Dollar and are adversely affected by a stronger U.S. Dollar relative to the foreign currency. Even where we are a net receiver, a weaker U.S. Dollar may adversely affect certain expense figures taken alone.
From time to time, we enter into foreign currency exchange agreements to manage the foreign currency exchange rate risks inherent in our forecasted income and cash flows denominated in foreign currencies. The terms of these foreign currency exchange agreements normally last less than nine months. We recognize the gains and losses on these foreign currency contracts in the same period as the remeasurement losses and gains of the related foreign currency-denominated exposures.
It is difficult to estimate the impact of fluctuations on reported income, as it depends on the opening and closing rates, the average net balance sheet positions held in a foreign currency and the amount of income generated in local currency. We routinely forecast what these balance sheet positions and income generated in local currency may be and we take steps to minimize exposure as we deem appropriate. Alternatively, we may choose not to hedge the foreign currency risk associated with our foreign currency exposures, primarily if such exposure acts as a natural foreign currency hedge for other offsetting amounts denominated in the same currency or the currency is difficult or too expensive to hedge. We do not enter into any derivative transactions for speculative purposes.
38

Table of Contents
The sensitivity of earnings and cash flows to variability in exchange rates is assessed by applying an approximate range of potential rate fluctuations to our assets, obligations and projected results of operations denominated in foreign currency with all other variables held constant. The analysis includes all of our foreign currency contracts offset by the underlying exposures. Based on our overall foreign currency rate exposure at September 30, 2025, we believe that movements in foreign currency rates may have a material effect on our financial position and results of operations. We estimate that if the exchange rates for the Chinese Yuan Renminbi, Euro, British Pound, Mexican Peso, Indian Rupee, Hong Kong Dollar, Brazilian Real, Japanese Yen, Korean Won and Vietnamese Dong relative to the U.S. Dollar fluctuate 10% from September 30, 2025, net income in the fourth quarter of 2025 would fluctuate by approximately $2.7 million.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Rule 13a-15(d) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") defines "disclosure controls and procedures" to mean controls and procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. The definition further states that disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive and principal financial officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are subject to lawsuits arising out of the conduct of our business. The discussion of our litigation matters contained in Note 12 to the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" is incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The reader should carefully consider, in connection with the other information in this report, the risk factors discussed in "Part I, Item 1A: Risk Factors" of the 2024 Form 10-K and in the periodic reports we have filed since then. These factors may cause our actual results to differ materially from those stated in forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and elsewhere.
We recently experienced the departures of our CEO and CFO and changes to our board and executive management. These changes may create uncertainty and, more generally, if we are unable to attract and retain qualified management and key personnel, our business will be harmed.
We have experienced recent changes to our senior management and board, including the retirement of our Chief Executive Officer, Paul D. Arling, in May 2025, the retirement of our Chief Financial Officer, Bryan M. Hackworth, in September 2025, and the retirement of a member of the board and Audit Committee Chair, Edward K. Zinser, in August 2025. In addition, our director William C. Mulligan announced his intention to not stand for re-election at our 2026 Annual Meeting. Richard K. Carnifax, who served as our Chief Operating Officer, is currently serving as our Interim Chief Executive Officer and as
39

Table of Contents
principal executive officer, and Sui Man Ho (a.k.a. Raymond Ho), who served as our Senior Vice President, Finance, is currently serving as our Interim Chief Financial Officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer.
Although we have endeavored to implement these management transitions in a non-disruptive manner, such transitions can be inherently difficult to manage and may hamper our ability to meet our financial and operational goals. Such changes may also give rise to uncertainty among our customers, investors, vendors, suppliers, employees and others concerning our future direction and performance. Replacing executive officers and key employees may be difficult and may take an extended period of time because of the limited number of individuals with the skills and experience required. If we are unable to attract and retain high-quality personnel, our ability to pursue our strategy will be limited. Changes in our board and senior management and uncertainty regarding pending changes may disrupt our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and ability to execute on our business plans and impair our ability to recruit and retain other key personnel. Any such disruption or impairment could have an adverse effect on our business.
Our future performance will also depend, in part, on our ability to successfully integrate newly hired executive officers into our management team, and our ability to develop effective working relationships amongst senior management. Our failure to integrate these individuals and create effective working relationships amongst them and other members of management could result in inefficiencies, harming sales of our products and our results of operations. Additionally, we do not currently maintain "key person" life insurance on the lives of our executives or any of our employees.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
The following table sets forth, for the three months ended September 30, 2025, our total stock repurchases, average price paid per share and the maximum number of shares that may yet be purchased on the open market under our plans or programs:

Period |  | Total Number of Shares Purchased (1) |  | Weighted Average Price Paid per Share |  | Total Number of Shares Purchased as Part of Publicly Announced Plans or Programs |  | Maximum Number of Shares that May Yet Be Purchased Under the Plans or Programs (2)
July 1, 2025 - July 31, 2025 |  | 256 |  |  | $ | 6.78 |  |  | — |  |  | 778,362 |
August 1, 2025 - August 31, 2025 |  | 5,195 |  |  | 5.87 |  |  | — |  |  | 778,362 |
September 1, 2025- September 30, 2025 |  | — |  |  | — |  |  | — |  |  | 778,362 |
Total |  | 5,451 |  |  | $ | 5.91 |  |  | — |  |  |

(1)Of the repurchases in July and August, 256 and 5,195 shares, respectively, represent shares of common stock of the Company that were owned and tendered by employees to satisfy tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of restricted shares.
(2)On October 26, 2023, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program with an effective date of November 7, 2023 (the "Share Repurchase Program"). Pursuant to this Share Repurchase Program, we are authorized to repurchase up to 1,000,000 shares of our common stock and to date, we have repurchased 221,638 shares of our common stock. On November 4, 2025, our Board of Directors authorized management to continue to execute under the Share Repurchase Program. As a result, pursuant to this authorization, we may, from time to time, repurchase up to the lesser of $3.5 million worth of our common stock or 778,362 shares (the total remaining number of shares available for repurchase under the Share Repurchase Program). This authorization will remain in effect until such time as the Board of Directors terminates the authorization or the Share Repurchase Program is executed in full. We may utilize various methods to effect the repurchases, including in privately negotiated and/or open-market transactions, and pursuant to plans complying with Rule 10b5-1 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Neither this authorization nor the Share Repurchase Program obligates us to repurchase any shares of our common stock, and any repurchase of shares will be subject to market and other conditions and may be discontinued at any time.
ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION
During the quarter ended September 30, 2025, no director or officer (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act) of the Company adopted or terminated a "Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement" or "non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement" (as each term is defined in Item 408 of Regulation S-K).
