Per fiscal year from filed facts: cash conversion = operating cash flow / net income (net income > 0); cash-flow accrual ratio = (net income - operating cash flow) / average total assets; balance-sheet accrual ratio = change in net operating assets / average net operating assets, NOA = (assets - cash) - (liabilities - debt). Descriptive; a missing input yields a missing ratio. High accrual ratios and cash conversion well below one are the measures the accruals literature associates with less persistent earnings; they are screens to read the cash-flow statement with, not conclusions.

Financial Instruments The composition of financial instruments is as follows: December 31, 2025 December 31, 2024 (in thousands) Liabilities Contingent consideration (Note 3) $ 2,600 $ 2,600 The fair value of the Companys financial instruments is the amount that would be received in an asset sale or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between unaffiliated market participants and is recorded using a hierarchical disclosure framework based upon the level of subjectivity of the inputs used in measuring assets and liabilities. The levels are described below: Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data. Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The Company classifies its financial instruments that are categorized within Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy on the basis of valuations using quoted market prices or alternate pricing sources and models utilizing market observable inputs, respectively.

Goodwill and intangibles · 4,176 characters as filed

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Goodwill Goodwill arises from the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations and represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets and other identifiable intangible assets acquired. The fair values of net tangible assets and intangible assets acquired are based upon preliminary valuations and the Companys estimates and assumptions are subject to change within the measurement period (potentially up to one year from the acquisition date). There were no changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. The Company performs an annual goodwill impairment assessment on October 31 st each year, using a quantitative assessment comparing the fair value of each reporting unit, which the Company has determined to be the entity itself, with its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recorded. As a result of the Companys impairment assessment, no goodwill impairment was recognized as of October 31, 2025. In addition to its annual review, the Company performs a test of impairment when indicators of impairment are present. During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, there were no indications of impairment of the Companys goodwill balances.

Leases · 1,904 characters as filed

Leases Operating Leases Operating lease arrangements primarily consist of office leases expiring in various years through 2030. These leases have original terms of approximately 2 to 8 years and some contain options to extend the lease up to 5 years or terminate the lease, which are included in right-of-use assets and lease liabilities when the Company is reasonably certain it will renew the underlying leases. Since the implicit rate of such leases is unknown and the Company is not reasonably certain to renew its leases, the Company has elected to apply a collateralized incremental borrowing rate to facility leases on the original lease term in calculating the present value of future lease payments. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the weighted average discount rate for operating leases was 4.6% and 5.0%, respectively, and the weighted average remaining lease term for operating leases was 2.7 years and 3.2 years, respectively, as of the end of each of these periods.

Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data. Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The Company classifies its financial instruments that are categorized within Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy on the basis of valuations using quoted market prices or alternate pricing sources and models utilizing market observable inputs, respectively.

Goodwill and intangibles · 3,950 characters as filed

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Goodwill Goodwill arises from the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations and represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets and other identifiable intangible assets acquired. The fair values of net tangible assets and intangible assets acquired are based upon preliminary valuations and the Companys estimates and assumptions are subject to change within the measurement period (potentially up to one year from the acquisition date). There were no changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. The Company performs an annual goodwill impairment assessment on October 31st each year, using a quantitative assessment comparing the fair value of each reporting unit, which the Company has determined to be the entity itself, with its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recorded. As a result of the Companys impairment assessment, no goodwill impairment was recognized as of October 31, 2025. In addition to its annual review, the Company performs a test of impairment when indicators of impairment are present. During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, there were no indications of impairment of the Companys goodwill balances. Acquired Intangibles Finite-lived Intangible Assets The following table sets forth the Companys finite-lived intangible assets resulting from

Income taxes · 5,249 characters as filed

Income Taxes The provision for income taxes primarily relates to projected federal, state, and foreign income taxes. To determine the quarterly provision for income taxes, the Company uses an estimated annual effective tax rate, which is generally based on expected annual income and statutory tax rates in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates. In addition, the tax effects of certain significant or unusual items are recognized discretely in the quarter during which they occur and can be a source of variability in the effective tax rates from quarter to quarter. The Company utilizes the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes, under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates expected to be in effect during the years in which the temporary differences reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred taxes to the amount it believes is more likely than not to be realized. In making such determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence quarterly, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and recent financial performance. Forming a conclusion that a valuation allowance is not required is difficult when there is negative evidence such as cumulative losses in recent years. Based u

Leases · 2,174 characters as filed

Leases Operating Leases Operating lease arrangements primarily consist of office leases expiring in various years through 2033. These leases have original terms of approximately 2 to 8 years and some contain options to extend the lease up to 5 years or terminate the lease, which are included in right-of-use assets and lease liabilities when the Company is reasonably certain it will renew the underlying leases. Since the implicit rate of such leases is unknown and the Company is not reasonably certain to renew its leases, the Company has elected to apply a collateralized incremental borrowing rate to facility leases on the original lease term in calculating the present value of future lease payments. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the weighted average discount rate for operating leases was 4.3% and 4.6%, respectively, and the weighted average remaining lease term for operating leases was 3.6 years and 2.7 years, respectively, as of the end of each of these periods.
