During the year ended December 31, 2025, we determined that certain machinery previously assigned to the Re-Tain® business no longer had a future use to the Company or any specific undiscounted cash flows other than estimated proceeds from the expected sale. As a result, we recognized an impairment charge on the machinery to write-down their cost to their estimated fair value.

(3)The income from insurance recoveries resulted from claim benefits paid to us under our business interruption policy related to inventory product losses occurring in previous periods.
